five. i can't trust anything now

mentions of abuse, violence, drinking, language, and etc.

After talking Tree, her mom, her dad, her brother and her best friends for weeks, Taylor decided to find a foster family for Aurora. Taylor wouldn't be able to take care of a kid with her tour and the amount of attention her job requires, but she could find a family who would take good care of Aurora.

Luckily she was able to find a family for Aurora within in four days of searching. James and Annie seemed like the perfect couple to take care of the small girl and by week two they were able to gain Taylor's full trust. They all decided that it was time to tell Aurora. Taylor had put it off for a month, scared to see Aurora's reaction.

"Sweetheart, I have something important to tell you, I need you to get up," Taylor whispers, sitting down on Aurora's bed.

Aurora mumbled something incoherently before slipping back into the covers. 

"Aurora," Taylor says, pulling away the shorter girl's blanket.

Aurora whined but got up and trudged into the bathroom. Taylor sat on the couch downstairs next to her mom, anxiously bouncing her leg up and down, waiting for Aurora.

"Who are they?" Aurora questions, looking at the unfamiliar man and woman sitting in Taylor's living room.

She already had a bad feeling and the woman was giving her a creepy smile. She tried to shake it off and she sat down next to Taylor, laying her head on Taylor's shoulder.

"Aurora, these is your foster parents," Taylor says, letting it out.

"What?" Aurora asks in disbelief.

"It's not ideal for you to live with me. I travel a lot and my job occupies a lot of my time," Taylor explains, hoping the girl would understand.

"Yeah I fucking get that. But a heads up would have been nice. What the fuck!" Aurora lets out.

"Language! And we all thought it's a good time for you to know now," Taylor said.

Aurora scoffed as she got up and ran back into the room. She was hurt that Taylor pretended to care and was shipping her off to live with people she didn't know after all she'd been through. She was angry at herself for trusting Taylor and hoping for a better future. 

She whipped her head to the side as she heard a gentle knock on the door. Taylor walked in, sitting next to her.

"You don't have to talk to me but I'm really sorry for doing this to you. I know you trusted me and if seems like I broke your trust. But I did a lot of research to find you nice people who I know you will like. You can see me as much as you would like when I'm here, just try it, for me, for a couple weeks, if you don't like it, we can look for other alternatives,"

"Taylor, you're shipping me off to live with random people cause you got tired of me, stop lying to me. I knew you'd get sick of me at one point. You stopped caring about me and you just want me gone,"

"Honey, no, absolutely not. I love you to pieces and want you to have a healthy life now. I can't give you that because of my life and I found people who will. I will always be happy to have you over but please try for me,"

"Fine," Aurora muttered, after a minute of hesitation.
