Reunited (One Direction/Louis Tomlinson)

5. Mom

Hey guys! Again I'm asking this but if you could advertise my story that would be so great! If you do, tell me in the comments and I'll give you a shoutout also. Alright, the story is going to be back in normal time for Charlotte now, so it's going to start where it did in the first chapter.

Charlotte's POV

"Charlotte! Get down here this instant!" Andrew yelled up to me, clearly annoyed.

"I'm coming!" I screamed back. I ran down the stairs with a scowl placed on my face. "What do you want?" I said to him. Then I noticed something, he had three suitcases. "Are you leaving?" I asked him, half happy half angry.

"Yes, is that a problem?" he asked me sassily.

"You're leaving without saying goodbye to mum?" I said to him angrily.

"I don't need to say goodbye. She left first," he stated.

"What the hell are you on about?" I yelled at him.

He stormed out the door, but not before yelling back at me, "check the messages!"

I ran over to the phone and listened to the most recent message: "To whom it may concern, we are sorry to tell you that Rachel Elizabeth Carson was at the airport in Colorado when a masked shooter came in. He started grabbing randoms and shooting them and unfortunately Ms.Carson was one of them. We offer our condolences and are working to find out who did this."

"MUM NO!" I screamed, tears running down my face. I ran out the door and straight to Cam's house. As soon as she saw me she pulled my in for a hug.

"Hey, Charlie. Don't cry," she said softly while letting me cry into her. The way she was speaking to me made me cry even harder. She sounded exactly like Will did when I found out I was moving. After a while she pulled me over to the couch and got me to sit. She made me some hot chocolate and by the time it was ready, I had calmed down a bit. "Charlie, what happened?" she asked me gently.

"Mum" Hiccup "Is" hiccup "Gone" hiccup. I said while tears slid slowly down me face.

"What do you mean she's gone?" she asked worriedly.

"Airport-shooter-mum-gone," I said, the tears forming a steady stream again.

"Oh Charlie! It will be okay," she said sadly, tears forming in her eyes.

After a day or so, my social worker came to take me to an orphanage. That was when it finally sunk in that I was an orphan. I had been staying with Cameron and her family and her mom was talking to the worker right now. I could vaguely hear what they were saying.

"She can't go to an orphanage!" Morgan, Cam's mom, said.

"I'm sorry, she has to. There is nowhere else she can go," Mrs. Hornbrooke, the social worker, said.

"I want to adopt her then," Morgan said. I gasped, loudly. I quickly covered my mouth so they wouldn't here me. I ran upstairs and told Cameron what I heard.

"Cam! Your mom just said she wanted to adopt me!" I half yelled to her.

"What!!" she screamed with a huge grin on her face.

"I know!!! Do you think she will‽‽‽" I asked her also grinning.

"I hope!" she said happily.

"Girls! Could you come downstairs for a minute?" Morgan yelled up to us.

"Coming Mom!" Cam yelled back to her. We ran downstairs to see Morgan smiling and Mrs.Hornbrooke looking through her briefcase.

"Girls, I have some good news. We just need your approval," she said to us. "I would like to adopt you, Charlie, but we need to know if you would like that."

"Yes! That would be awesome!" I said grinning from ear to ear.

"Wonderful! We just need you both to sign here!" Mrs. Hornbrooke said to us.

After we finished signing everything, Mrs. Hornbrooke pulled me into a separate room. "Charlotte, I would like to talk to you about your mothers will. Because you are the only child, you get everything. That includes her bank account, and yours. You also get the house and all the furniture. You can either sell everything or put things into storage. The house will be sold because you are going to be living here."

"I would like to sell most of the things but there are some small things that I would like to keep," I replied back to her.

"Alright. I will be back in 1 week. I expect you to have all the things you want to keep packed up. For big things, I want you to either label 'sell' or 'store' okay? I will also have a realitor with me and we will put the house up for sale," she said to me.

"Sounds good," I said to her.

TWO WEEKS LATER

"Welcome to your new home sweetie," Morgan said to me as Cam slung her arm over my shoulder. I brought in my last bag and set it down on the floor. "Your room will be the guest room," she said then yelled up stairs, "Mike! Come down here and help Charlie with her bags!"

"Coming Mom!" Mike, Cam's older brother by a year, yelled back. He ran down stairs and grabbed some bags and pulled them upstairs. Cam grabbed my hand and pulled me into the kitchen. Dang that girl can eat. She's like a bottomless pit! She eats and eats but never gets fat! It's crazy! We had some snacks and went upstairs to unpack. Welcome home Charlie.

Alrighty! There it is. Thanks for all the reads guys! 52!!!!!!!! If you like my story tell your friends!
