Toms POV
After a short while of Eden being at our house and playing with Buzz I decide to give her a house tour. She happily says yes to my offer and we begin to walk around the house.
"So this is the dinning room." I said, leading Eden into the room where all the record frames were up over one wall and a large table sat in the centre of the room.
"These are all from the songs I've written." I smiled as I watched the ten year old look at each of the frames carefully, reading each frame individually.
"McFly?" She questioned quietly. She seemed confused but then I began to remember that McFly was around before she was born and the care workers obviously hadn't said anything.
"Yeah, that's my band." I smiled, beginning to think of all the good times we had when we were first starting out as teenagers, now we are all thirty or in our late twenties.
"That's so cool." Eden smiled lightly at me. She seemed to be warming to Gi and I. She was much less nervous and happier to speak.
"The band is me and Danny on vocals and guitar, Dougie's on bass then Harry is our drummer." I replied. Eden then looked straight at the One Direction album which was hanging up next to all the McFly and Busted albums.
"How come you have a 1D one?" Eden asked politely. She seemed to sound excited in her tone of voice.
"Let me show you something." I smiled to her, leading her up stairs and into my music room. She struggled a little on the stairs but then made it slowly into the room containing my keyboard and guitars which were all placed neatly on the wall.
"Here, have a seat in my director chair!" I laughed. Eden sat down in the chair which had 'tom' printed on it and I turned around to find my lyric books. Eden sat down and out of the corner of my eye I could see her look around the room in awe. She looked closely at the YouTube play button which was hung on the wall, guarded by two guitars hung either side of it.
"What's that there?" She asked, pointing to the silver YouTube sign on the wall. I was still concentrating on finding the song books but I answered her question non the less.
"That's to say that my YouTube channel has one hundred thousand subscribers. I have about five times that amount now though." I replied. I could hear Eden gasp lightly. I then finally found all my song books and sat down on the floor next to Eden, spreading the books out on the floor so we could both see them.
"These are my lyric books." I smiled. Eden seemed to be smiling too. I randomly picked up one of the books and began flipping through it. Different McFly and Busted hits filled the pages and it's still hard to believe that most of these songs are over a decade old. I opened up the page to the lyrics that James and I had wrote for 'crashed the wedding'. "This one is a song I wrote for Busted. I know the boys well and this was one of their best songs. It did great in the charts!"
"So you write songs?" Eden asked.
"Yeah." I replied before finally finding the lyrics to 'I want' in one of my most recent books. I opened it and then passed the book to Eden, she carefully balanced it on her lap and began to read the page filled with my terrible handwriting.
"You wrote this for 1D?" She asked in disbelief.
"Yup!" I replied. Then flipped a few pages of it so the lyrics to 'I would' was on the page.
"And you wrote I would?"
" yep, I wrote it with my friend Danny, then we wrote don't forget where you belong too, we had a song we wrote in each of the first three albums."
"That's so cool!" Eden beamed at me. Seeing her happy made me want to start crying. She seems to feel comfortable around me. And Buzz loves her just as much as Gi and I do. "What does Gi do?"
"Gi writes books for adults and she has a YouTube channel too. Do you want a tour of the rest of the upstairs?" I asked.
"Sure!" Eden said back. She seemed to have come out her shell a little, it just proves what song writing can do.
I quickly gave her a tour of the house, taking her into Buzz's room then into all the other rooms upstairs. I stopped at one particular door.
"And this will be your room." I smiled, pushing open the door which was painted plain white. We both walked in and Eden walked around the room which at the moment only contains a single bed, a set of draws and the wall length mirrored built-in wardrobe. Then we had a camera tripod set up in the corner so we could do some cool video. "you can decorate it however you like, you can take inspiration from Buzz's room or you can do what ever you want.' 
Eden just nodded lightly before we both made our way downstairs, it took a little longer than usually though as Eden was struggling with her crutches. We walked back into the lounge and Eden smiled widely at Gi as she sat back down on the sofa.
"Eden, you haven't met Buddy yet." Gi stated. She started to walk over to where our 3 month old was swinging back and forth. He had his big eyes wide open and he was definitely ready to meet his possible new big sister. Gi picked him up then walked back to where Eden was sat.
"Do you want to hold him?" Gi smiled. Eden nodded and so Gi laid out youngest son into Edens arms. He seemed to settle instantly into her arms and began to snuggle into her just like Buzz did.
"He likes you!" I smiled. Eden smiled but didn't take her eyes off baby Buddy who was now smiling in her arms. I looked at Gi and she looked at me, we both smiled and nodded in sync with each other, we both know that Eden is the right person to join our family.
