I froze with my mouth wide open.

"What" I managed to squeak from my suddenly dry throat.

Did I want to be adopted?! I think I do but then again what about Jasey? I told her I would stay with her untill she was adopted! Or what if they were murdered or rapists or- OR your just psyching yourself out! They could be nice people!

I groaned and slapped myself in frustration. What was I going to do I've secretly hoped all my life this would happen even though I acted as if I didn't care.

I pinched myself to see if it was real life.

"OUCH" I yelled out making the now confused Myri jump. Yep not a dream.

"Sophie what are you doing to yourself? Stop it!" She yelled holding both my hands.

I sighed "Sorry Myri... I just can't believe it, wow I never knew what goes through your head when you hear those words the first time! I have so many questions...not all good..." I murmured that last part to myself.

Myri raised an eyebrow then smiled. 

"Well come on then! You can ask em' their downstairs in my office for the interview!"

Before I could answer Myri quickly fixed my hair and pullef me out the door down the stairs and through another door into her office and sat me down on a chair opposite to a nice but nervous looking couple-quite young and good looking people I might add-God this was awkward why Myri why.

"Hello I'm Eleanor and this is my boyfriend Louis.." She said nervously but sweetly.

So they aren't married? Should I be worried? Nonono I like them already..

"Hi, I'm Sophie" I smiled trying to ease her nervousness.

Eleanor giggled and gave Louis arm a squeeze he chuckled and poked her cheek.

Omg they were so ADORBS.

Eleanor slapped is hand away playfully and turned back to me.

"Sorry he's so silly, anyway Sophie well we didn't get to know much about you but I hope that can change"

I looked at Eleanor with confused yet hopeful eyes. I know what she meant but I wanted her to say it. Yea that's a bit selfish but I've always wanted someone to want me proving I'm not just a waste of life and space.

Eleanor looked at me with loving eyes but was cut off before she could open her mouth.

"What we're trying to say is we want to adopt you Sophie" Louis said holding onto Eleanours hand tightly.

O.M.G THEY WERE BOTH BRITISH AHH FANGIRL! I love British accents! Well British, Irish and Australian accents are the best!

I smiled widely my eyes lit up with joy and tears. They wanted me! I got up and ran over to them hugging them tightly.

They were giggling and hugging me back messing up my hair jokely like a real family would.

I sat between them and waited as Myri rummaged through her desk for my birth certificate and adoption papers.

When I saw her face she had clearly been crying earlier and had a mixed expression of sadness and happiness.

Why was she sad? Maybe because she never had a kid?

Oh well I know it sounds cruel but I didn't care I was going to have a real home and a real family for once.

After filling out all the paperwork Louis picked me up. For being 15 I was a little below average height and skinny.

And no I wasn't anorexic I just shared my larger portion of food with the other because they were often still hungry after their meal. I didn't mind since I don't need the food like they do.

Eleanor and Louis walked out the door of the office and into the main entrance room all the kids played.

"Sophie?" A soft voice spoke beneath me.

I tugged Louis hair to indicate I wanted down like a little kid would.

He chuckled at my actions and put me down. I never had parents and I've always wanted to be held so it probably seemed really weird I'd act like a 3 year old.

I looked over to the voice to see Jasey's sad face. It broke my heart.

"Hi Jasey" I replied trying not to cry infront of her, smiling weakly.

"Sophie where are you going?" She cried running up and hugging me, grabbing the back of my shirt in her tiny fist begining to cry.

"I was adopted barbie-boo" Jasey giggled when I mentioned my silly nickname for her.

"Bye bye baldy" She answered hugging me tighter.

I wiped the tears from her little face and pulled away from the hug, leaving the orphanage I've known all my life.

I walked out the door with my right hand in Eleanor's and the other in Louis's.

As we entered the parking lot I was confused as they walled towards a limo.

"Sophie are you ok?" Eleanor panicked as I stood frozen in the middle of the lot.

"Why is there a limo here?" I asked not expecting her and Louis to laugh then say it was theirs. Wow my new family was rich.

When we got in the limo there was a bit of awkward silence.

"So Baldy?" Louis questioned chuckling breaking the silence.

I giggles and blushed bright red.

I didn't know he heard it!

"Me and Jasey used to play Barbies a lot, that's why I call her Barbie boo, Well she was really scary when it came to that game and my Barbie ended up bald with one eye missing!" By the time I finished my story we were all in a fit off laughter.

"So our little Sophie gets picked on by children?!? Oh my goodness!" Louis teased making me playfully slap his arm.

We all took a few minutes to reclaim ourselves and then I decided this was the right time to ask.

"How come you chose me?" I asked fumbling nervously with my fingers.

Eleanor smiled and reached over to hold my hand.

"Because we liked you! Plus, Louis doesn't do diapers!" She replied earning a poke from Louis at the last part.

I giggled and reached forward to hug both if them. My family.

When we eventually arrived I couldn't believe it

Their house was huge! Couldn't believe this was going to be my new life and new home!
