You're my whole world

Chapter 4. Putting the Pieces back Together.

Nikki, and I were sitting at the dining room table going through the stuff in the boxes.

"Hey anybody home?" Ricky yelled walking through the door with Jess right behind him. Devin, Kuza, and Angelo right behind them.

"Hey guys." I said looking up from a box that had clothes in it, and Nikki just sorta glanced up at them, and smiled a small smile.

"What's going on here?" Kuza asked sitting down in the chair next to Nikki.

"Nikki?" I asked her. She looked up.

"You go ahead and tell them." She said. Turning her attention back to the box. I faced everyone and cleared my throat.

After I was finished explaining everything to them, they all gave Nikki and I hugs. Kuza was still hugging Nikki when we heard a frail voice ask.

"M-mommy?" Nikki left Kuza's embrace and went to pick up Tristen. Then she walked back over to everyone, and Tristen hid his face in her neck behind her hair.

"Hey baby don't be shy this is your new family." Nikki said. He peeked his head out from behind her hair. He looked at each face then looked at Nikki she laughed.

"Let's introduce you to everyone." She said. Just then the front door opened again and in walked the rest of the gang.

"Sorry we're late Ryan had a tattoo session she needed to finish and we forgot we also had to pick up Kylie, and Ryan, but we did bring food!" Balz yelled with Kylie, Ryan, and Ryan-Ashley following behind him.

"Hey who's this?" He asked looking at Tristen casing him to hide again.

"We will explain in a minute, but first let's let him meet everyone." I said. Tristen slowly poked his head out from Nikki's hair again.

"Are you ready to meet everyone?" Nikki asked him. He nodded slowly.

"This is Ricky." She said standing in front of Ricky.

"Hey little man." Ricky said. Tristen gave him a shy little wave, then we moved on.

"Jess."

"Hi sweetheart." She said with a smile.

"Kuza."

"Hey buddy." Kuza said.

"Angelo."

"Hey." He said ruffling Tristen's hair.

"Devin, but he likes to be called Ghost!" Nikki said.

"Hey there!" Ghost said. Tristen smiled really big.

"Kylie."

"Hi honey." Kylie said.

"Josh, but he prefers Balz."

"Hey." Balz said holding his hand up for a high five. Tristen gave him one.

"Ryan-Ashley."

"Hey precious." She said patting his head.

"Ryan."

"Hey man." Ryan replied.

"And finally Alli." Nikki said.

"Aren't you just so adorable." Alli said.

"Okay someone want to explain?" Balz asked. I nodded, and took them all in the other room to explain everything. Everyone else followed us into the living room, so they could eat, because the dining room table had a bunch of boxes on it.
