For the next couple weeks Niall helped me train for the basket team. He was really nice and we talked about everything. Well except for his home life. He never talked about his life at home. The day Niall told me he didn't have any money to buy lunch I knew something was up. He wouldn't even let me loan him the money or talk to him. When school was over Me and Kyle followed him to his house. When we got to the house it looked like a normal house. When we knocked on he door a lady answered.

"Hello" I say politely.

She inspects me quickly before replying "follow me". She walks toward an office. When we get into it she looks at me.

"Who would you like to adopt" she asks me.

Do I really look that old? I laugh

" no we just want to see Niall " Kyle responds.

"You can only see kids you want to adopt" she says sharply.

I open my mouth to protest but Kyle pulls me out the room before I can say anything.

" why did you do that kyle" I ask.

"Niall has work soon he is bound to leave out the house we can see him then" he says.

"Wait Niall has a job and lives in an adoption house. What else isn't he telling me" I say. "

a lot" Kyle says so quietly I can barely hear him.

Then Niall walks out the house in a McDonald's uniform.

"Niall please tell me what is going"I say to him.

"What's going on is I'm going to work" he says with a goofy smile on his face.

"I mean why didn't you tell me you lived in a adoption house? What else aren't you telling me" I ask.

" I was adopted and I have a job because the adoption house doesn't give me enough money for me and my little brother" he says.

" why didn't you ever tell me" I ask.

" isn't it obvious ? He asks.

"Why do you think I quit the basketball team".

I honestly thought it was because of me so I can't think of any other reason. Then it hits me.

"Why didn't you tell my dad about your job he could have worked something out with you" I say.

" well that's part of the reason but mainly I wanted more time to track down my parents" He says. I look at Kyle

"Niall you really need people to help you through that kind of thing" I say

" like who? nobody cares about me" he says. "I do I like you a lot" I say.

" yeah I know we are best friend yippee! " he looks at me.

"Um no as more then that" I say quietly.

" you do" ?
