"Allison? Allison wake up." Says a male voice that I don't recognize.

"Ugh, Ok im awake. Um, who are you?" I ask groggily keeping my eyes shut. I hear the man chuckle before replying. "Im Leo, remember?"

The name rings a bell and I think for a minute before all the memories of last night come rushing back to me. It hits me with such a force that I fall out of bed.

"Well I see you remember, and that your wide awake. Well it's time to go so be ready in 10 minutes" he states before leaving me alone in the room.

I push myself off the floor and walk out of the bedroom when I see a door and hope it's the bathroom.
I peer in and sure enough its the bathroom. I walk in locking the door behind me and glance into the mirror. My hair is a tangled mess and my makeup is all smeared under my eye.
I sigh and turn on the tap and splash some warm water into my face and rubbing away the makeup.
I grab a towel and dry my face off before looking back at my long tangled dirty blonde hair.
Well I don't want to use his brush and im sure he would feel the same way. I turn away from the mirror and do my buissness before walking out.

"There you are" Leo chirps with a bright smile. "Uh yea, um where are my bags?" I ask looking around failing to locate them.

"Oh there in the closet ill get them" He says kindly before walking past me and down the hall. I wait for him to return and a few seconds later he does, handing me my bags.

I smile my thanks and open my duffel bag, pulling out my hair brush and toothbrush. "You have toothpaste that you wouldn't mind me using right?" I ask heading back towards the bathroom. "Yea, use the blue one if you want" He tells me just before I close the door.

Once I finish I walk back into his room looking for my hat. I see it on the floor and bend down and grab it. I quickly walk out feeling like I shouldn't be in there. I head back to the mirror fixing my hair before placing my hat back on.

I go over to my duffel bag dropping my stuff back in there and slip the straps over my shoulders. I wheel my suitcase to the front door and step into my shoes waiting for Leo to join me. A few minutes later he walks over all dressed and ready to go.

I sigh and walk out the door of his small apartment not ready to face the big world that awaits.

"Well here you are" he says giving me a comforting smile. "Thank you, so much for everything Leo. You have no idea how grateful I am and how much I apreciate you helping me." I tell him. "My pleasure" he says and reachs out his hand which I give a small shake before hopping out of his car.

"Good luck, Allison" He says and opens the trunk so I can grab my stuff. "Thanks Leo, and same to you" I smile and turn away pulling my suitcase along with me to the adoption center.

I take a deep breath and push the door open. A lady walks out from an office beside the entrance way a big smile plastered onto her face.

"Welcome to Benton adoption Center!" The lady says happily. "Uh, hi" I state. "My name is Ms. Clare and I will introduce you to all the lovely ladies here then find you a room" I just nod my head and look down at my feet.

"Can I have all the ladies come down the the rec hall" I hear Ms.Clares voice state over the loud speaker. She directs me to the Rec Hall where I see tons of benchs filled with girls of a variety of ages. "Good morning ladies!" She yells over the girls chatter. Theres a few "good mornings" back before the room goes silent and she continues.

"We have a new Lady joining us today and I want you all to make her feel welcome. Come dear and tell us a bit about yourself" she says with a warm smile and handing me a microphone.

"Um, Hi. My name is uh Allison and im 14 years old... Um my favourite color is black uhhhh I love music Especially Fall Out Boy and uhmmm my favourite animal is a guinea pig, and uh yea." I hand the mic back to Ms.Clare and resume looking at my feet. I hate standing in front of a bunch of people.

"Welcome Allison. Ok so who has an open room?" She asks and I glance up to see a few hands in the air."Ok how about Brianna, you can share a room with Allison and the rest of you are dismissed, Brianna please show Allison to your room."

I watch as the whole room leaves except for Brianna who walks towards me with her arms crossed.

Ms. Clare smiles at the two of us then heads back to her office.

"Ok So first of all it's MY room. Not OURS or YOURS, it's MINE, got it?" she growls. I just nod my head. "Good. Second, you touch any of my stuff your dead. Third, Don't talk to me unless I talk to you, same goes with my friends... and I think thats it" she flips her and turns around and I follow her to our- HER room. This is just great.(Note the sarcasm)
