4 Months Later
Lena's POV
I woke up to the sound of my alarm and rolled out of bed. I turned my alarm off and looked over at Adam.
He was laying there smiling at me.
"What are you looking at?" I asked as I put my hand on my hip. "Only the most beautiful wife a man could ever ask for," He said.
I smiled back at him before I walked over to him and kissed him.
"Can you wake Adalyn and Kennedy up to get them ready for school? I'm going to go talk to Baylee," I said. "Of course," He said.
I walked out of our room and down the hall to Baylee's room. I knocked on the door.
"Come in," Baylee said. I opened the door and walked inside.
Baylee was sitting up in her bed, reading a book. I sat on the bed next to her and smiled at her.
"So, Adam and I enrolled you in the local high school. Today is your first day," I said.
Baylee looked at me in fear. "What's wrong?" I asked her.
"I haven't gone to real school since I was 13," She said. "Oh, well you're going to love high school," I said.
"Your bag and books are downstairs and we will get your schedule when we get to your school," I said.
"Ok." She said. I got up and started to walk away. "Wait, mom," She said. I turned around and looked at her.
"You... you just called me mom," I said. "Yeah. I've gotten used to you and Adam being my parents, and I decided that I'm ready to call you mom and dad," She said before I ran over to her and hugged her.
I let go and I forgot that she had a question.
"I'm sorry, what was your question sweetie?" I said. "Could you help me pick out an outfit for school?" She asked. "Of course," I said as I walked into the closet.
I picked out a black tank top and a creme colored sweater with faded skinny jeans.
I walked out of the closet and handed them to her.
"Thanks," She said. "You're welcome. We have to leave in a half hour. I'll be right down the hall if you need me," I said before I walked out of her room and back to mine and Adam's.
I walked into my closet and put on a pair of skinny jeans with a black tank top and a peach colored sweater.
I slipped on a pair of nude colored pumps before I put on some makeup and threw my hair into a high ponytail.
I walked downstairs and saw Kennedy and Adalyn eating their cereal while Adam fed Aiden with a bottle.
"Good morning," I said as I kissed each of their heads. "Morning mommy," Kennedy and Adalyn said.
I walked over to the counter and poured a hot cup of coffee into my purple mug before I sat at the table next to Adam.
Right as I took a sip of my coffee, I saw Baylee walk downstairs.
She looked like a spitting image of Sarah. Her straight hair fell just below her shoulders, her makeup was well done, and she had a smile on her face.
"Good morning Kennedy, Adalyn, Aiden, and dad," She said.
Adam turned towards me with a shocked look and I knew it was his reaction from her calling him dad.
I just smiled at him and he understood.
"Morning," Him, Kennedy, and Adalyn said back.
"Help yourself to anything in the pantry," I said before I took another sip of my coffee.

45 minutes later, Adam and I arrived at Baylee's high school.
"Ready?" I asked her. "As ready as I'll ever be," She said. "Alright, let's go," Adam said before we all climbed out of the car.
We all walked into the main office. A woman who looked about in her mid-50's was sitting behind the desk.
"Hi, we're here for our daughter's first day. She's a new student," I said. "Name," She said without looking up from her desk.
"Baylee Levine," I said.
Her eyes shot up to look at me. "Levine? As in Adam Levine?" She asked.
Adam walked up next to me and smiled at the woman. "Yes, I'm her dad," Adam said.
"Well, let me print her schedule," The woman said before she clicked a few times on her computer and grabbed a paper from the printer.
"Alright you have Geometry, Biology, French, Journalism, Photography, English, World History, and Dance," The lady said as she handed Baylee her schedule.
"Welcome to Beverly Hills High. Enjoy your first day," The lady said before we walked out of the office.
"Alright sweetie. Well have an amazing first day. We'll be back to pick you up at 3:00," I said before I hugged her.
"Yes, have a great first day. I know everyone will love you. How could they not? Just don't let any boys near my little girl. I'll kick some asses," Adam said before he hugged her.
"Ok dad, I won't. Thanks guys. See you later," She said before she walked down the hallway to her locker.
I felt tears well up in my eyes before Adam grabbed my hand and we walked back to the car.
Baylee's POV
I put my bag in my locker and found my first class, Geometry.
I sat down in the back of the room and looked at all the people around me.
I wasn't used to being in a class full of people. I'm used to learning by myself and teaching myself the subjects.
The bell rang and I watched the teacher stand up.
"Good morning class. Today we are welcoming a new student to our class. Miss Baylee Levine," She said.
"Baylee, why don't you stand up," She said. I stood up and 26 pairs of eyes were all on me.
I blushed and sat back down. "I'm Mrs. Adams," The teacher said.

It was almost the end of the school day and I have had a pretty good day so far.
Suddenly I felt my phone vibrate and I saw people were tweeting at me.
@bayleelevine why does a poor pathetic girl like you get a sexy as fuck rockstar like him as a dad
@bayleelevine Adam's real daughter died 4 years ago. you're just an orphan he adopted
@bayleelevine you're just Adam's new charity case
@bayleelevine Adam and his wife just adopted you to replace their dead daughter. they don't really love you
@bayleelevine just because you're Adam's daughter doesn't make you cool
@bayleelevine being Adam's daughter won't make us like you
@bayleelevine you're just a poor worthless piece of shit Adam adopted cuz he felt sympathetic that day
@bayleelevine how could Adam live with such a poor excuse for a daughter?
@bayleelevine out of all the gorgeous girls in the world, why did Adam have to adopt a fugly girl like you
@bayleelevine just go back to the orphanage. no one her likes you nor wants you here
@bayleelevine go back to your pathetic orphan life
I read all the tweets and felt tears stream down from my eyes.
How could people be so cruel? I have been here all of 6 hours and they already hated me.
After not even a full day of school, I was already fed up with everyone.
I saw a door at the end of the hallway that led to outside.
I grabbed my purse from my locker and took off sprinting down the hallway until I reached the doors.
I opened the doors and just ran.
I had no idea where I was going, but I knew one thing for sure.
No way in hell was I going back.
