Lizzy (The third book in the 12 and Adopted Series)

Chapter 15

Lizzy's POV

It's been a week since my aunt came to talk to Mia. We're officially moved into the house, which is great for me because it's in a more busy part of London, great for photography. 

The house is huge also. You can imagine what it looks like, but it's really big. Right now I'm out shopping for clothes for school, which starts in a week. I'm going to a middle school about 5 minutes from here. The transportation to school is really cool, it's like a giant double decker bus, but yellow. It's pretty lit.

"Lizzy do you like this?" My mum asks. Only me and her came out today because Mia is getting too embarrassed to come out in public, and my brother and other sister already went school shopping.

I turn to face my mother as she holds up some high wasted black shorts. "I would get dress coded."

"Oh yeah." She puts them back on the rack and moves to something else.

The thing I'm most nervous about is finding friends. I've always been homeschooled so I have no idea how this is going to work. Secondary school kids are cruel. 

"Well what do you want Elizabeth we've been here for 30 minutes and there's nothing in the cart." She says.

"What do kids in secondary school wear?" I ask.

"Clothes." I roll my eyes. As I do there's a girl about my age standing where the sundresses are, smiling at them.

"Mum! Look at these! It's what's in style." She yells. She gives her mum 2 dresses then moves on. I look at my mum and smile, but she shakes her head.

"You've never worn a dress." She says. I walk over to the dress and pick out a plain blue one, and a darker blue one with 2 thick white stripes at the bottom. "Lizzy you're going to buy them and never wear them."

"YouTube money." I say. We walk over to the jeans where another girl is standing, picking some skin tight light blue ones. I walk over to her and get the same ones she's getting.

"Lizzy wear your own type of clothes. Not what other girls are wearing. You've never owned a light blue pair of pants."

"Maybe once I try this stuff on I'll like it." I say. My mum sighs in defeat and allows me to put the clothes in the cart.

After buying a whole new wardrobe of bright colors we check out and drive to our new house. I walk in and my dad smiles at me. "Hey, what did you get?" He asks, kissing my mum. I stop, and my cheeks grow pink.

"Clothes." I say, stealing the bag from my mom and running upstairs. 

"Woah why are you running?" Justin asks as I knock him over.

"Shut up." I say, going to my room and slamming the door shut. 

"WHAT'S WRONG WITH LIZZY?" I hear Mia yell from her door. I look at the stuff in my bag and decide to try on one of the dresses. I slip my current clothes off then put the dress on, and tug at the bottom. While I am my door opens and there stands all three of my siblings, staring at me and the dress in shock.

"LIZZY IS WEARING A DRESS!" Justin screams.

"Shut up you brat!" I scream at him. My dad comes running up the stairs and stares at me in shock.

"Oh my god." He says.

"Stop it you guys! She can wear what she wants." My mum says. Justin starts laughing.

"Oh my god Elizabeth is wearing a dress." He says. I take a pillow off my bed and throw it full force at him, but he dodges it. My mum and dad shoo my siblings away and come into my room, closing and locking the door. My dad walks over to the bag and starts pulling out all the clothes.

"Why did you buy stuff that you never wear?" He asks.

"Because I'm scared I wont fit in." I say. My dad rolls his eyes and puts all the clothes back in the bag.

"People in secondary school wear all sorts of things. You're lucky that you get to express yourself in this school. Most schools have to wear a uniform of some sort. You get to wear what you like, so do it." He says. "Take that dress off, I'll take this stuff back tomorrow and take you to Hot Topic, okay?" I nod. He bends down and hugs me, then kisses my forehead and walks out with my mum.
