Adopted by Zoella!

3: Zoe Sugg. AGAIN!

When I get "Home" from school, I notice someone different standing in Ms. Emily's office. I surge forward slowly to get a better look. I cannot see the person's face but it is clear that it is an adult. It's a she, who is of average height and has her hair in a kind of ombré ponytail. She wears heels and a nice outfit, and is talking to Ms. Emily, who has 14 files on her desk. The lady turns to a dark-haired man next to her and I now see her face. It is Zoe Sugg. I jump, and run to the stairs. She CAN'T see I live here. Sam gets up quickly. "What's wrong!" He shouts. We are the only kids in the house. "SHHHH!" I hiss. "There is a famous Youtuber downstairs." I whisper. Sam looks shocked. "Why?"

"I think she is here to adopt."

"Well then why aren't you down there?!" He whisper shouts. "Because it's Zoella."

"Annnnd?" He asks. "Annnnnnd. You cannot tell anyone but I got a ride from her, and I pretended to look for keys to the neighbours house in my pocket. She thinks I have parents!" I whisper shout. We hear a door close down stairs. Ms. Emily calls up the stairs. "Grace! Can you come here for a moment please?"

"Coming!" I shout. There are not any pictures on the files. Just info about our parents and boring stuff like that, then our age, gender, and a couple things about us. I never told Zoe my name. Now I am really in the dog house. Sam offers a look of pity and I go to the door.

I walk into the office slowly, and there they sit: Alfie Deyes: PointlessBlogs and Zoe Sugg: Zoella. Zoe seems to recognize me a bit, but not enough for her to be sure it's me. I sit down on the side of Ms. Emily's desk and lightly gulp. "Grace." Zoe says. "We would like to spend some time with you for a while. Is that something you would like."

I don't want to be in this position. I LOVE ZOELLA! Don't get me wrong, but if it was possible, I would put Sam in the adoption process and me in the actual adopted. But I nod slowly. Zoe smiles. Alfie grins lightly. I beam at their reactions and Zoe laughs a nice, deep, genuine, laugh. "Can we pick you up tomorrow at eleven for lunch?" She asks. I look to Ms. Emily who smiles. I nod and smile lightly. "Great!" Alfie says. After, Ms. Emily gets them to fill out adoption papers, and tells them that after they spend the day with me they can be signed if they like me and sent in. After that it will probably take like a month for me to be able to move in. 'But what if they don't like me?' I wonder.

When Zoe and Alfie leave, I go back up to the small room and start trying to pick out what I am going to wear. I eventually decide on a white crop tank, a faded denim skirt, infinity necklace, and a cardigan, with my vans for shoes. I ask Sam for his opinion and he nods in approval. I am SOOOOOO nervous. I hope that they like me. Will we just go for lunch? Will I meet Nala? See the house? What will we eat? Where will we go? I stop asking questions about Zoe and decide that I should do homework to take my mind off of it. But I can't concentrate on my maths and the nervous thoughts flood my mind. I watch some Youtube to take my mind off of it and go to dinner when it's ready.

The chicken soup isn't bad as I talk with Meg. I don't say anything about Zoe at all. I didn't want to create a craze. The younger kids like Caleb and Avery might not know who she is, but I am sure at least most of us know. Caleb is talking loudly, trying to get Cade to say something. They are brothers, they got separated from their sister because their wasn't anymore room here. We all go to the same school though as Trish (See what I did there? No :( okay. Or maybe you did! I wasn't gonna use TRIS! Stupid, stupid.) is in a foster home close to the school that we go to. (Total Divergent-Insurgent-Allegiant. fan! LOL!) ANYWAYS. Meg was just talking about some high school things. She is a freshman at the high school near the secondary school, so we all walk together. Sometimes. I still can't wait for tomorrow, but am also nervous.

********Next day********

I wake up at 5:14 in the morning. I sigh, I barely slept last night. I go to the door and turn on one light. Sam is snoring in his bed. FINALLY! I have woken up or done something before Sam. I take my outfit and makeup to the bathroom. I go to the big cupboard and pull out my hairbrush, toothbrush, and hair bands. I let boiling water fall onto my skin instead of making it JUST warm which I usually do. After my shower I put on my outfit which I picked yesterday and brush my teeth. After I brush out my medium dark brown hair and braid it. After I put on some foundation, concealer, mascara, and blusher. Then I smother on some light peach lipstick and gloss. I sit on the floor and put and tie on my shoes. I decide I should pack a bag, so I go back to my room and put some things like money and my phone. By the time I get down stairs it is 7:30. Most of the kids are gone. It takes about 26 minutes to walk to school. I get some shreaddies from the pantry and pour myself a bowl of cereal. Then I grab some orange juice. I watch some Netflix while I eat and then when I am done I go to the living room to watch Tv until Zoe comes.

I know her car right away. I mean, it's bright red! I shout goodbye to Ms. Emily and I grab my bag which I left by the door. I jog out to Zoe and get into the passenger seat, then say hello as I buckle up. She says hello back and starts explaining the day plan. "So we are going to go eat lunch and then we will take Nala for a walk. And then I will drop you back off." She says. "That sounds like fun!" I say.

For the whole ride there are no awkward silences and we talk a lot about what will happen when I move in.

We meet Alfie at this cute little Italian cafe. He is sitting at a seat with four tables with a black pug on a leash next to him. NALA! We walk towards him and sit down. I look at the menu with Zoe and we decide what we want. I order a pasta, and a lemonade. Alfie orders pasta and a milkshake. And Zoe orders a salad and lemonade.

When we finish we take Nala on a long walk in a park and then Zoe and Alfie take me back. I am sad to leave them, but excited to move in. "This was very fun. Thank-you." I say, going in to hug Zoe, but I stop. She realizes and then pulls me into a hug. I am relieved and sink into her. We hug for like five minutes, and then she lets me go. "I will see you next week." She says. I nod and I go inside.

Zoe's POV Cause why not?

I leave the doorstep once Grace has gone inside and go to the car. I sit next to Aflie and sigh. "I love her. She is perfect." I say. We start the long drive back to Brighton, it's about two hours. Me and Alfie talk some more and decide this is what we want to do. So I ring Ms. Jenners and wait with anticipation for her to answer so she can get those papers singed for us. She answers and says we can go over now. "Turn around Alfie. We have papers to sign."
