Adopted by Ashton Irwin

Chapter 2: New home

*Luke's POV*
I was scrolling threw Twitter as I felt someone curl up on my shoulder. I looked down and saw Maddie fell asleep. We arrived at the house and I woke her up.
*Maddie's POV*
I felt someone shaking me and I opened my eyes a little seeing that Luke woke me up because we where home. It feels weird calling it home but I guess I have to get used to it. I got out of the car and was in total "aw".  It was enormous but I guess if your a world wide band you would have a huge house.  My thoughts were interrupted by someone snapping there fingers.

"Close your mouth or you will catch flies" Michael said as I just shook my head and laughed.

"Come on" Ashton/ my dad called me over so I followed him inside and once again I was in "aw".

"Here I'll show you your room" Luke said as he walked upstairs and I followed. I walked in and three times in a day I was in "aw". (The picture is her room I'm just to lazy to explain it)

"I'll leave you to unpack and dinner will be at 5." Luke said as I nodded and started to unpack. So I'm guessing you would want to know a lil about me.

Name: Madeline Marie Irwin used to be Rexford
Hometown: Sydney, Australia
Current city: same
Age: 12

Hobbies: sing dance write songs play almost every instrument and write poems

Past: my mom died when I was 4. My dad blamed me so he abused me, raped me and turned my into a sex slave from 5 to 10. At age 8 I started school and trust me I hate it still I am always getting bullied and called names. I started to cut at age 9 and I almost died cos I cut to deep. My dad changed for the week that I was healing form it but changed back when I was completely healed. I tried over dosing at the beginning of age 10 and again I failed so I ran away.The voices are always taunting me to cut, but they stopped when I met Abigail but came back when I was at the orphanage, they left when I met Ashton hopefully they stay gone. I was adopted before but when I thought I could trust them I opened up to my past and they sent me back.

Fears: I fear of my dad coming back I'm afraid to trust and I'm afraid Ashton will send me back

There you have it a brief of myself now back to the story. When I was done unpacking I went downstairs and sat on the couch next to Dad and Calum.

"So how do you like your room?" Dad asked looking down at me.

" I like it, thank you" I said smiling. I may have a family and I'm not changing it might as well start calling him dad.
*Ashton's POV*
When Madeline went upstairs something snapped in me. I have a daughter this is awesome. I regret saying I hate to adopt her. I love her she's my daughter. My thoughts were interrupted by Calum.

" so you still regretting adopting her?" He asked and I shook my head.

"Not one bit. She's my daughter now and I actually like that." I said smiling as she came downstairs and sat in between me and Calum.
" so how do you like your room" I asked smiling down at her. I noticed scars on her wrist but I didn't want to question it because I just got her and don't want to push her into anything.

"I like it thank you" she said smiling back. Luke came in looking pissed and started glaring at Maddie.
*Luke's POV*
When Maddie went downstairs I went into her room. Yes I know snoop much but I was curious on why she had so many bracelets. I went into her room and there was this small black box on her bed. It said "my best friends" so I thought photos at first, but then I noticed red on the tape. So I opened it and found small medium and big blades. I wanted to cry she's 12 why on earth would she do this to herself but my sadness turned to anger so I grabbed the box and stomped down stairs. I stopped right in front of Maddie and Ashton.

" Why the hell do you have these?" I asked getting more pissed as I saw tears well up in her eyes. Then I softened a little.

" I- I...." She looked at me and glared," give me them back and why the hell are you snooping my shit?" I was shocked at her outburst, but Ashton more.

" Madeline can you please stop swearing and calm down." Ashton said and she started shaking her head.

" give me them back and never go threw my stuff again." That's when I shook my head there's no way in giving these to her.

" no your not getting these back. You don't need them." I said as I started walking to the bathroom.
*Madeline's POV*
I can't believe he's doing this first he goes threw my stuff now he's going to flush them. I couldn't take it anymore.

" Luke please, you don't understand I need them. Please don't flush them." I said as he turned around and then dad looked at me.

" Madeline you don't need them they won't help they only cos more. Please believe me." Dad said as I broke down and ran upstairs. I ran into my room and locked my door. I kept running my hands threw my hair and letting out sighs. I can't believe this. I went to my bed and curled into a ball until a knock was at my door.
*Michael's POV*
I walked upstairs as I saw Maddie run to her room. I looked over and saw a shocked Calum, a broken Ashton, and a pissed off Luke. I walked over to Calum and he explained what happened, so I turned over and hugged Ashton cos he was sobbing like a maniac. I ignored Luke cos one of two things one he's pissed off and I would rather not be punched in the face and two he had no right to. So I walked upstairs to her room and heard her sobbing so I knocked. Then I heard shuffling around and she opened the door.

" can we talk, I promise I won't flip." I Said pulling her into a hug. She accepted and we went in her room. We sat in the edge of the bed.

"Why?"

" I am sorry. Those just help with my pain, I don't want to get sent back like last time when I vented about my past. I'm sorry." She said looking down. I couldn't help but feel bad.

" you know what let's make a deal. You lose the habits of cutting and come talk to me or one of the boys and we will listen and not send you back. Ashton would never send you back he loves you like your his actual kid." I said and she looked everywhere around the room but at me then she finally looked at me and nodded.

" I guess" she said playing with her hands.

"And I'm here to listen now if you want to talk." I said and she opened her mouth but closed it again.

" I- I'm not ready yet" she said and I nodded.

"Okay but when you need to talk I'm always here to listen" I said getting up but I stopped when she grabbed my arm.

" thank you uncle Michael" she said and I pulled her into a hug. Then we separated and I went downstairs to now an okay Ashton and a broke down Luke.

" I-I'm sorry Ashton. I don't know what came over me, I guess I got mad because why the hell would a twelve year old even know what it is." Luke said and I just shook my head.

" it's not me you have to apologize to, but I understand I mean she's my daughter I would do that if it were me finding those, you were just being the protective uncle.

" he's right go apologize. She'll accept it." I said patting his back as he nodded.
