Adopted by Taylor Swift

Chapter 11- Claire and Sophie Meet Adam

Taylor's POV
It's been a month since I adopted Claire and Sophie, and let me tell you, I don't regret it one bit! They are amazing girls, so well behaved and play the best pranks on me and the cats. Last week, I took them to meet my parents and brother. They got along really well, especially with Austin. He's the one who taught them these pranks to play on me.

Yesterday, I took them out to the mall with the 'Bad Blood' squad, minus Gigi and Hailee, as they were out of town. Karlie and Selena really hit it off with them in the car ride there, singing along to my hit album 1989 with them and sharing a huge amount of jokes, so the whole car was filled with hysterical laughs and terrible singing coming from Karlie, Sophie and Martha. Zendaya, Selena, Claire and Hailee all have beautiful singing voices. I may end up bringing Claire and Sophie along with me when I go on my 1989 World Tour, which kicks off in Tokyo in May next year. It'll be a Christmas surprise for both of them, and Claire may end up being an opening act if she agrees to it.

Today, I've invited Adam over to meet the girls, and he's taking me for a meal out, and then tomorrow the four of us are going out for a day at Disney World. It also give them a chance to get to know one another. They don't know about each other yet, I kept it as a surprise for today. He's coming around midday ish, and it's now 9am and no one is up, let alone awake, except for me. I text him to finalise the plans for tonight and tomorrow.

A= Adam)

T- Hey
A- Hey
T- We still on for this weekend?
A- Yeah, I can't wait!
T- I've not told the girls yet but I have told them that we have a fun weekend planned. They're so excited.
A- Well, you should tell them about this when they're up and be sure to film their reactions for me!
T- I will. I'll see you later.
A- See you later.

I shut off my phone and go to each of the girls rooms to wake them up. I go into Claire's room first, she's awake and on her phone. I tell her to get up, and thankfully, she shuts her phone off and gets up immediately. I smile at her, and go and wake up Sophie. I go into her room, and see she's still sleeping, so I gently rub circles on her back and quietly sing her favourite song, Enchanted, and her eyelids flutter open. I tell her she needs to get up, and she obeys almost immediately, which is good.

While the girls are getting ready, I quickly sneak all three suitcases into the trunk of the car, and just as I heaved the final suitcase in, I noticed the unmistakable camera flashes reflecting off of my glasses lens. Great, paparazzi. I shut the trunk as quickly as I could and hurried inside. I shut the front door, but just as soon as I turned around to go to the living room, I threw up, then my vision blurred and then......................................................................................................................................................

All I saw was black.

*1 HOUR LATER*

Claire's POV
The house is dead silent. I walk over to Sophie's room and help her get sorted for the day, then we walk downstairs to go and eat breakfast. I haven't seen Taylor since like 9am, and it's now like 10:30am. It's odd because Taylor is usually bustling around the house tidying up mess or making breakfast, so I get Sophie her breakfast and go around the house looking for Taylor. I enter the living room, and I see a shadow at the other end of the room. I go and have a closer look, and what I see makes me stop in my tracks...

It's a pool of vomit.
Taylor's on the floor, and she appears to have passed out.

Wait one minute...
TAYLOR!!

"Sophie! Please go upstairs to Taylor's room and get me her cellphone right now! I'm in the living room!" I scream for my sister.

She comes down a minute later, sees what's happened, screams and runs from the room, leaving me scared shitless with my unresponsive mom on the floor, a pool of vomit and her cellphone.
