MEGAN POV

I lay on my side thinking about my life. The things that have happened and what is probably to come. I'm back to the loneliness that I refuse to have.

I've been on my own since I can remember. I had a family....a mom, dad and even my little brother. Till they left me. At 10, my mom died giving birth to my little brother. Leaving my dad, brother and I. My dad did the best he could, working and raising us for a good year while my grandma criticized everything he did.... waiting for him to fail. And he did.

The one time out of all the many times he cooked dinner on a Sunday for us, my little brother touched the stove and got burnt. And there was grandma ready to call the cops, yelling abuse. She gained custody of us and cut our father out of our lives; only seeing him if I was at recess and he'll walk pass waving, mouthing a sweet I love you.

My grandma being the wicked witch she was got what was coming for her.... death. Died a painful, long one by herself. But that left my brother and I by ourselves, sent into the world of foster care. My little brother got adopted quickly because everyone wants a baby, and he was just about 2 years old. But no one, no one wanted me....

I always hoped my dad would come and get me out of the system, but of course that never came.

I went from home to home just being bounced around like an object... not even a person. Being mis treated only finding comfort in being little, thinking on when life was simple and great...being a 5 year old.

Until I was 17 and one lady took pity on me. She had a heart of gold, loved me like she loved her son Robert. They found me wandering a grocery store trying to steal food since the group home I was in wouldn't feed us. She grabbed my hand as I was pocketing an orange juice, and from there the love I gained from the both of them began.


She dead as soon as I got accepted to this school from a brain aneurysm, leaving Robert and I. She promised she was gonna always be there for us, especially at our wedding. But obviously neither of them made that. I gave up on going to school seeing how much it cost but not Robert; he believed in me. So he sold drugs, fast and easy he said. Even though he was only supposed to do it for 6 months it turned into a year, and he just showed no sign of stopping, even when I begged him.......till it caught up with him.

They shot him dead right in his car. He was leaving to come pick me up from class, but they got to him first; hitting him right in the chest.

All I had was him and he left me...like everyone else.

As I cry I cradle Bagel closer into my arms, but the tears keep coming. Usually I can calm myself down but I can't.

"Megan.....shhh, it's okay. I got you" I hear, thinking it's my own imagination
"N-N-Nooo. I'm all alone"  I mumble as I cradle Bagel tighter to me

I feel arms wrap around me and flinch.
"It's just me.... Kellon. I got you baby girl" Mr. Deryck whispers into my ear

I grab his right hand holding it close to my heart. I take in his scent, taking deep breaths feeling sleep take me.
"Thank you Daddy"





I wake up to an empty bed. Just me...again. After getting myself together I head downstairs. I stop midway as I hear laughing. Who the hell is laughing!?

I enter into the kitchen with Bagel under my left arm protecting me. I gasp finding Mr. Deryck, Professor Taylor and Alyssa sitting there.

"Bestie!!!" Alyssa shouts running towards me giving me a hug
"H-Hey... what you doing here?" I say as we pull apart pulling my shirt that Mr. Deryck gave me down

"Oh we're always here on Wednesday morning to have breakfast since we don't have class. And Kellon is my uncle" she says whispering the last part while giving me a wink

"Come eat!" She says pulling me to the table

I see Professor Taylor looking me up and down smirking
"Good morning Ms. Megan" she says smirking then sips from her mug
"G-Good morning" I stutter out

The way she's smirking at me has me wondering did Mr. Deryck tell her what I accidentally called him last night. I can just hide under a ditch.

"Sit down Megan, I have a plate for you too" he says rubbing my back smiling at me

"Thank you" I say pulling some hair behind my ear and sitting down next to Alyssa

"Oh my gosh!! He's so cute!!!" She shouts
"Inside voice baby" Professor Taylor says

"C-Can I touch him?" She ask me looking at Bagel

"Oh" I say trying to think of I should

I don't like no one to touch Bagel thinking they'll hurt him. But I know she wouldn't so I slowly hand her him. I watch as she plays with him, telling him how cute he is. And he has to meet her stuffie, Andy.

Mr. Deryck lays a plate in front of me, I quickly thank him then dig in.

"Once you're done eating Megan we're all going shopping" Professor Taylor says

"U-oh okay....w-won't someone see us?" I ask
"And?" She ask
"We all just shopping and it's no one's business...but our own. Fuck what people say"

"Ooooh Mommy you cursed" Alyssa says pointing at Professor Taylor
They both chuckle looking at each other. I guess it's a joke between them or something.





We pull up to target and I can feel my heart beating out of my ass. Everyone is going to be here. I walk behind Professor Taylor and Alyssa as they hold hands, with Mr. Deryck next to me.

"I'm sorry I called you Daddy. I don't know why I-" I start to apologize to Mr. Deryck but he stops me

"You have nothing to apologize. If you want to be called baby girl... then you should have the right to call me Daddy... and plus I love to hear it out of your sweet mouth"

Can this man get any sexier... Oh gosh, he wants the nasty Meg to come out. I calm myself down at we walk to the storage aisle.

"Meggie how is this?! It's PINK!" Alyssa semi shouts pointing to this plastic pink bin that I can use as a dresser

"I like it.... but I rather purple or a light blue..." I say and I watch the excitement on her face turn sour

"BUT! I would love to get this if I had a playroom for the both of us to put our stuff in" I say and instantly her face lights up

"OH MEGGIE! You're the best! We definitely need to have a play date" she says

"Of course y'all will... every soon. Thank you niecey but Megan is gonna be getting a nice big dresser. That should be to the house right now" Mr. Deryck says

"Right now? But we're not at the house, so how can they leave it?" I ask

"My sister is there" he says and instantly my heart drops

"W-What?" I stutter out

"She's really nice Meggie, don't worry" Alyssa says

"Yeah Meggie... don't worry. She already likes you" Professor Taylor says

"Okay, let's continue shopping" Mr. Deryck says blushing

I look at the back of him as he walks in front of us. Does he talk about me a lot?














We drive back home with the truck full of stuff for my room that I'm excited to decorate and so is Alyssa. But all I can think about is Mr. Deryck's sister being at the house.

Pulling up I don't see a car so my mind is at ease, but as we carry the stuff into the house and into my room I hear laughter. And all I can think is shit she is here.
