Adopted by Magcon

Mays POV:
This is the best birthday ever! My birthday has always been kinda a let down because of the orphanage but I'm not gonna let it bug me this year.

Now I have Dad, Shawn, and the guys to celebrate with me. My birthday would really be complete if Tony and Gus were here to celebrate with me.

Tony's in a new foster home in Nebraska and I haven't heard anything about Gus since he was adopted. I guess the only good thing that came out of this situation is that he's happy.

"May how about this one?" Shawn points out a natural wooden longboard with teal wheels. The top is natural wood and the bottom has Hawaiian flowers painted on in pink outlined in white with a teal background.

"It's perfect." I smile and grab the board. We charge it to dads card and head out. I ride my new board out to Shawn's car and jump in the passenger seat.

Shawn stumbles around for a moment trying to fit all of my clothing bags into the back seat before getting in the front.

"Gee May. You certainly got enough clothing to choose from now." Shawn points out once he's buckled and ready to go.

I laugh a little while we roll out of the parking lot on our way home to face the horror. I know Dads gonna be mad at me and Shawn, but he can't yell at me. It's my birthday.

"Wait until you see the surprise waiting at home for you. You're gonna be so excited." Shawn tell me as we're driving. Surprise?

"Wait there's a surprise? What is it?"

"You'll have to wait and see silly. It's a surprise, I can't tell you before you get it." Shawn explains.

"Well judging by what you've told me so far I can conclude the following, you said IT not THEM so its not a person but you also said GET not OPEN so it can't be wrapped. Which means it's either a small animal in which you can't tell the gender yet or something only a person can give something small in size but large in meaningfulness. Something like a-" I was cut off by Shawn's lips smacking into mine.

"Something like a kiss?" He asks when he pulls away.

"Yeah. Something like that." I smile and lean in for another. Shawn puts a hand on the back of my head and I place one on his cheek.

Our lips lock once again. Is seems like forever before we pull apart again. When we finally do, it's not a pretty sight.

Dad has his face pressed against the drivers side window and his nose is smushed into the glass. He is glaring at Shawn and I and I'm stuck dumbfounded as to why he came out to the driveway to look into Shawn's car.

"Ummm." I point at the window behind shawn and he turns around slowly. His sight is set on dad.

Shawn slowly rolls down his window a small crack and leans up to speak out of it.

"Good afternoon sir." He starts and clears his throat while focusing his eyes anywhere but dad.

"She's mine. MINE." Dad storms around to the passenger side and opens the door. He wraps his arms around my waist and lifts me out of the car.

Dad runs inside, while holding me, straight into the livings room.

"You're my daughter and I don't have to share you"

"Dad it's just a kiss."

"It's not just a kiss May! It's your first kiss."

"Well not my first but you ruined it."

"But it was with Shawn!"

"I repeat. Yeah I know and you ruined it."

"Don't leave your room for one hour. You're still supposed to be in school right now."

Dad puts me down onto my bed and walks out the door slamming it on his way.

I walk over to the balcony and step outside. Shawn gets out of his car and grabs all my bags from his backseat. As he walks in the front door into the living room, I can hear all the guys shout congrats at him.

I can already imagine dad walking down the stairs Into the living room to see all the guys bustling about the kiss. He crosses his arms in disappointment and all the guys stop cheering. Then Matt speaks up in his funky voice, 'How could you do this to me Shawn?!'

Suddenly my daydreaming is interrupted by yelling boys. It's not audible until it gets closer down the hall.

"You're overreacting Jack!" That was Shawn.

"Shawn! You kissed my daughter and spent hundreds of dollars on my debit card. I'm not overreacting. Stay away from May!"

I hear a door slam and then there is shuffling across the hall where Shawn's room is. Suddenly there is even more shuffling right outside my door.

I go to crank the handle and see Shawn but the handle won't move.

"What the fuck! Jack you locked me in?!" Shawn shouts through his door.

"Shawn? I'm locked in too. The handle won't turn." I shout and banged on the door. No one was around to open it.

"Dad! Come on! It's my birthday! Open the door!" I shouted. Suddenly the handle turned and the door opened but no one was around.

I crept across the hall to Shawn's room and opened the door. He was no where to be seen.

"Hello?" I shouted down the hall. No answer. I kept walking to the living room to discover the lights off and the blinds drawn.

I flip on the lights to be bombarded with people everywhere all shouting "SURPRISE" in my face.

All the guys were here plus some other YouTubers and Viners. LOX was here to DJ and a few school friends came to support me.

Dad came up to me and smirked.

"I hope you're not too mad that I locked you in your room so I could shuffle all of this in here. Shawn was supposed to keep you out of the house for another hour." I can't believe my ears. Dad knew.

"But where's Shawn?" I asked and looked around the party. I couldn't see him anywhere.

"Oh. You won't be seeing him for a long time." Dads face got dark and he smirked. It was probably the scariest face I've ever seen. I felt myself taking slow steps back.

"I'm kidding. He just left to go get your cake from the garage." I sighed in relief as I heard the front door slam.

Everyone turned to see who it was and I couldn't believe my eyes. Tony stepped in and smiled at me.

"What did I miss?"

•••

As the night went on the party started to die down. My cake was completed with seventeen glowing candles and everyone was surrounding me.

"Okay May. Before you blow out the candles you have to tell us one thing you want more than anything." Dad told me as he turned off all other lights in the house. Now, the only glow came from the candles.

"I-" I don't know giants say this without hurting dad and the guys feelings.

"I want to meet my birth mother." Jack and Tony exchanges nervous glances like they knew something I didn't. But I don't care.

I blew out the candles and the world went dark.
