'Umm well I was doing a background check on the people Eira was living with.' Liam paused tacking a breath
'And they don't exist. I've looked everywhere, they simply don't exist.' Liam  carried on.

I looked over at Eira and saw she was fighting off sleep. I hang up telling Liam I'll speak to him when I get back. looked over to Eira her head rested on the car window her were closed but would re open, the sight was adorable.

Eira pov

My eyes felt as if weights had been added to them. There was a high pitched ringing in my ears and my hole body ached. Despite not wanting to sleep the urge to become nub became more apparent, and although I had only just met the man that's had taken me in, I feel safe and sort of drawn to him. But I couldn't tell if I could trust him it not and even tho I wanted to I couldn't let my guard down. Not yet at least.

I felt a presence close to me which made me lean in closer to the car door. Hoping somehow the floor of the car would oven up and swallow me hole. I felt a hand tuck a few
Peace's of hair behind my ear and plant a soft kiss on my forehead. Dispite only just meeting this person my body melted into their touch, and soon after I quickly feel asleep but part of me wished that I wouldn't wake up.

Matios pov:
Even in her state of sleep she still looked tired and worn. I was surprised when my eyes first landed on her, she looked so small and lost but she also looked like a fighter an someone who would stand up for themselves

Although all of my sons share the same forest green eyes, like me. She has her mothers blue eyes, but instead of being full of happiness and life, they're dull and lifeless. But now that I can see her more clearly despite her oversized clothes I can see how scarily thin her body, and how despite her using he best efforts to hide it, how scared and lost she looked.

I hoped that once she had settled into living with us she would open up to us and maybe tell us why she decided to turn to drugs. But until that happens I want to be able to show her how happy life can be with out even having to use drugs or alcohol.
