Colton's pov
my social worker cami walked into my room.
"hey Colton, two things hun," she said.
"okay, go."
"you're getting a room mate and, some guys are coming to adopt today at 12:00 so, you've got an hour to get ready. your room mate will be here any minute."
"thanks cami!" I said and rushed to the bathroom. I put on the playlist of pierce the veil and showered. I'm the oldest girl in the girls half of the orphanage. yes this is spilt, half is boys and the other half is girls. it's nice to get to know guys as well. especially for me. I'm better around guys. guys understand my music, my life style, my meaning, and my everything pretty much.
I showered and got ready quite quickly. I changed into a BMTH tank top, ripped black skinnies, a dark grey beanie, and my maroon vans. my hair is a whole different colors of brown and a streak of red on the under part of my hair in the left side. most people say I have a scene hair cut but to me it's just my hair. that took about 35 minutes then I went back to my  room and saw a girl. a preppy girl. shit.
"hi, I'm Colton, you can call me colt if you'd like, I'll be your room mate," I said.
"oh, hey, I'm Brianna, I normally go by bri though."
"nice to meet you. I'm gonna go and hang out in the lounge. you should get to know some kids. if you need any help just ask!" I said, grabbed my phone and started walking to the door.
"okay, bye."
I cringed walking out, I'm sharing a room with a prep. why me?! anywho, I plugged in my earbuds and clicked on my playlist. "and the snakes start to sing" by bring me the horizon played.
I made my way to the lounge and saw two of my good friends. both guys. andrew and Jakob, really stereotypical names, I know. but they aren't stereotypical people. they're both a lot like me and there in a relationship. it's extremely cute. we hung out and talked for a good while until cami came over to me. great I thought. another person rejected me.
"hey, can you come to my office?"
"uh, yea."
"the four guys looked at your profile and your personal written stuff. they want to talk to you," she said.
"really? could I be getting adopted?!" I asked and yelled.
"maybe hun, just maybe. you'll like them and they'll like you."
I followed her to her office but I said bye to the couple before walking off. we walked into her office and I almost fainted. she knew who they were. we always jammed out to them together. PIERCE THE FUCKING VEIL WAS THINKING OF ADOPTING ME. realization hit my like a truck. damn.
"hi, I assume you know who we are but we, being me and mike, want to get to know you. as well as the rest of the band," Vic said.
"oh my god, sure. ask me anything."
"well to start off, who's your favorite member?" Vic asked.
"who the hell asks a fan that? Vic? huh?" I joked.
"well damn, if you don't want to answer."
"it's Tony," I said bluntly.
"yes!" he screamed, came over a picked me up out of my chair and swung me over his shoulder. "I like this one, come on Vic you're getting her and we're leaving."
"I knew I was getting her when I read her profile and saw her pictures."
it was final, I was getting adopted. by. pierce. the. veil. FUCK YEA!
"go pack kiddo!" Jaime said. wow. they actually want me.
Tony was still carrying me. I couldn't see but I could still direct him to my room. I knew this place like the back of my hand. we made it to my room and he jokingly scoffed.
"pink? who are you rooming with?!"
"dunno. some girl who came today. but I won't have to deal with it since I'm going with you guys."
"we're saving you!" he joked.
"thank you!"
I quickly packed all my stuff into my suitcase: clothes, shoes, posters, albums, computer, chargers, and any other miscellaneous things. I was actually leaving and going with a band that saved me multiple times. this hell is being released of one more kid. I wish I could take Jakob and andrew with me. but there both 17 so they'll be leaving next year.
we all piled into Vic's car. he's the one who ended up adopting me.
"can I just call you all by your first name? and not uncle or dad? I've known your guys for so long as just Vic, mike, Jaime, and Tony. it'll just be weird to me."
"that's okay with me. I mean you are seventeen after all," Vic said.
the drive was short and we soon pulled into the driveway of an extremely nice house and I feel like I didn't belong. I was jut this kid who was adopted and then brought to the band house to live here. that is t a regular everyday occurrence. what is my life turning into?
I didn't realize I was just standing there gazing at the house until Tony spoke up, "take a picture, it lasts longer."
"piss off perry."
"ooh nice one Colton! that'll get used more often," Jaime joked.
"but really. is this where we'll all be living?" I asked.
"that or a tour bus," mike said.
"will I be going with you? oh! I forgot to tell you. I dropped out of high school," I said seriously.
"you're joking right?" Vic asked.
"nope. not at all." I was actually serious. I dropped out and didn't want to go back. I have business already by selling my paintings. I rent out part of a studio with a good family friend. she's a painter too and I work out of there.
