Hey guys! I'm going to try to get this up soon but there are no promises. If this story seems a little too happy unlike most adoption stories, don't worry, I have plans for this. *laughs evilly* *starts coughing* Um, just-just continue reading.
Jade's POV
He's my cousin. Those words bounced around in my head for a while. He's my cousin. I couldn't believe it. He's my cousin. My idol, my hero, is my caretaker's cousin? He's my cousin. It was almost as if I was in a poorly written fanfiction with an author who never updates. Alright, alright, first you break the fourth wall, now you insult me! You should be happy I don't delete you.
"What do you mean, he's your cousin?!" I asked, confused as to what was happening.
"Well, actually, Alesa is my cousin, but because they're getting married, that technically means that Adam is my cousin as well," Jacob said.
"Why didn't you tell me?! You know that he's my flippen idol! Why haven't I met him before!" I responded, still in shock that THE SKYDOESMINECRAFT is standing right in front of me.
"Gosh, idol? I mean, I knew that I was good but I didn't know that I was THAT good." Adam stated, smoothing down his hair, only for it to puff right back up again. "Dang it! This stupid hair gel never works!"
"Listen Jade. I didn't know Adam until a couple days ago, when I learned that he proposed to Alesa. I figured that it would be a nice surprise. Unless in the last day you ended up hating him, then we would have a problem." Jacob explained, still laughing from Adam idiotic behavior.
"Um, I have a question," Emma said, peaking out from behind Jacob. "Who is he exactly? I didn't get what he meant by 'screaming into a microphone all day.'"
Oh yeah. I forgot she doesn't use the internet much. Well, I guess she kind of couldn't, since she barely had the money to buy some food, much less a computer. "You know the website YouTube?" I asked her. She nodded, and I continued on. "Well, he's my favorite YouTuber, and he plays video games, mainly Minecraft."
"Is he the guy on your shirt?" She asked, then I looked down, realizing I was wearing one of his new budder explosion shirts. #SPON! THESE ARE THE ACTUAL SHIRTS HE'S SELLING!
I nodded. "Yup! Das him!" I said in a derpy voice, pointing over to Adam who was laughing his head off.
"Ah, Jade," he said after he composed himself. "It's gonna be really fun moving into this town with you around."
"Wait, what?!" I said, turning to face his smug expression. "Alright, can someone please explain to Emma and I what's going on? Because now I'm REALLY confuzzled."
"Confuzzles?" A crackly voice behind Adam asked. I looked around him, and saw his computer was on Skype, with Jess, Ross, Barney, and Jin all in the call. Oh, so that's where all the extra noise was coming from. "Waz das means?" Barney asked. I should've recognized his amazing English.
"Hey, you says the words how yous says the words, ans I'll says the words how I says the words, alright you dirt?" I stated, trying to sound like him, causing everything into a laughing fit AGAIN. "Anyway, Jacob, just tell me what's going on?"
"Well, you see, Jess, Jin, Barney, Adam, Alesa, and Ross all wanted to move somewhere sunny and warm and live in a big house together. So I thought it would be a good idea for them to move down here to Orlando, Florida! There are plenty of big houses here, lot's of things to do, and it's still a pretty big city like Seattle, so the should feel right at home here! Also I wanted to keep an eye on my cousin," Jacob explained. I could feel my mouth drop to the ground.
"Wait, so you're saying that not only is Adam and Alesa moving here, but the whole gang is as well?!" I said. I couldn't believe it, this was insane!
"Whose 'the gang?'" Emma questioned.
"WE ARE!" everyone on the Skype call shouted.
"Once they get here, I'll be sure to introduce you to them. Speaking of which, where's Alesa?" Jacob asked. Now that I think of it, she wasn't anywhere in the house that I could see.
"She's booking the hotel room, she should be back any minute," Adam answered. Just then, the doorbell rang. "Speak of the devil, and it shall appear."
We went downstairs to answer the door. Well, Adam, Jacob, Emma and I did. The rest came along on Adam's phone. The doorbell was ringing about 500 times a second. "God Alesa! We're coming, just stahp it!" Adam shouted as he answered the door. When he did, something hilarious happened.
"WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUY SOME STEAK SIR!" Alesa shouted, throwing steak at Adam as he ran back into the house.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOT THE STEAK! FIRST BASH, THEN ME?! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" Adam shouted, jumping behind the couch. Everyone burst out laughing at his fetus position.
After she calmed down, Alesa said,"Oh-oh my god. Adam honey, that was hilarious."
Adam sat up, crossing his arms, and stated in his baby voice. "It's not funny! You scawred me."
Alesa chuckled, then finally noticed Emma and I. "Hey! It's Jade right?" She asked pointing at me. I nodded. "Oh my god, Jacob's told me so much about you! It's so great to finally meet you!" She hugged me, squeezing the life out of me.
"Um, Alesa? I-I need air to live," I said, wheezing a little. WHEEZY! WHEEEEEEZY! Sorry, go on.
"Oh yeah," She set me down, allowing air to go through my lungs. "Hey, whose your friend?" She asked, looking behind me.
I saw Emma kind of shrinking behind me, so I pulled her in front of me, saying "This is Emma. I met her about two nights ago. She needed a place to stay, so I let her stay with me and Jaky-poo."
"Um, Jacob and I" Emma stated. "Sorry, I'm kind of a grammar freak."
"It's alright, Someone else I know is too. JIN?!" she shouted, picking up Sky's phone which he dropped when running away.
"I'm sorry! It's not my fault you guys failed English?!" He yelled, causing everyone else to shout "OHHHHHHH!!!!"
I saw Adam sneaking up behind Alesa, a finger on his lips, telling me to be quiet. I smirked, and took a step back.
"Shut up Jin! You know, you're not the nicest person ev-" "WHEEZY!" "OH MY GOD, ADAM?!" Alesa shouted, falling backwards and facing a red-faced Adam in a laughing fit.
"PAYBACK SUCKER!" He yelled whilst running upstairs, an angry Alesa chasing him. I laughed, this day couldn't get any better.
AND I'M DONE! MOM! MOM, ARE YOU PROUD! I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, and look forward to the next one! BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!
