Unloved

chapter nine

Jackie's pov

I sit in the car quietly.
"So you like mine craft?" Adam asks.
"Yea. I've played it for a while" I say in a quiet voice.
What if they don't like me? What will happen? Will I end up at the orphanage again? What if Jess is right?
"We should get you a YouTube account. You can make videos with me and the others!" Adam says cheerfully.
"Really?" I say a bit louder. "That would be cool but what about me being shy?"
"Don't worry. Its OK."
"Do your subscribers know you adopted me?"
"Yea. They know we were going to adopt a child. Have you watched recent videos?"
"No. I haven't really watched many. I've seen a couple a while ago but I don't know much."
"Oh. That's fine" he says.
We pull into a driveway and I see more people. Crap. I'm not good at talking to strangers. We get out of the car and they introduce me to 5 people.
"This is Ross, Jin, Barny, Jess, and Tyler." He says pointing to each person. Having someone with the same name as the voice in my head. Hmm. This will be interesting.
"Um, hi. I'm... Jackie..." I say shyly.
"She's pretty shy. Don't worry, Jackie. You'll get to know them pretty well. I'll invite the rest of the team over tommorrow so you can meet them!"
They show me to a room.
"I know it doesn't look to nice but we'll decorate it later. We just wanted to let you decide." Adam explains.
"Oh, thanks!" I say.

Time skip to next day

I wake up and go downstairs. Alesa is there making waffles.
'Oh hi Jackie!" She says putting a waffle on top of a stack. She hands me a plate with two waffles on it and syrup.
"Adam is over at the team crafted house. He wants you to meet them."
"How come you guys don't live there? Aren't you a part of team crafted?"
"Yea. But we moved out when we for married and..." She paused.
"And what?" I ask.
"We were going to have a baby but I was in a car accident and the baby died before he was born. His name was going to be Tyler." She says sadly.
"Oh. I'm sorry."
"Oh its OK. That why we adopted you. And we are glad we did!"
I excuse myself to go upstairs. I start to unpack my things. I finish unpacking and grab my bag so I can put it in the closet. A piece of paper falls out. I pick it up and start to cry. Its a family photo of me and my parents.

Bonus chapter! I felt like uploading another for today! I've been making a bunch of pure made chapters. I'm up at seventeen chapters and I'm going to start working on chapter eighteen.
