Chapter 1 ~ Grace's POV

Name: Grace Madison Winters

Birthdate: March 26th, 2003

Brith Parents: April Mary Winters/ Unknown

Reason Behind Adoption: Unwanted

I looked through the pictures. I was not the prettiest baby.

I'm Grace Madison Winters. I'm 12 years old. And I've been in this orphanage ever since I was a baby. It says right on my adoption papers, I was unwanted.

I've had many foster parents. 5 to be exact. Let's just say, the first ones were plain mean to me and I was only five. After having somebody hear glass shatter, I was taken back here to Miss Bethany's Orphanage.

After that, I was taken in by a girl and a boy who were newly married, and being the seven year old I was, they decided to send me back and never have kids.

After that, when I was still 7, I found a nice home that I loved. But, my foster dad ended up getting very sick and they couldn't risk me getting it with my 'special needs' and sent me back.

The others I just hated, so they took me back within the first week.

Okay, so I seem like kind of a brat. Well, can you blame me? Try being unwanted. You wouldn't have the best attitude either.

I grabbed my phone which was a birthday gift from Bethany. 25$ dollars a year and I got this after 7 years of saving. I went on Spotify. I had everything from My Chemical Romance and Nirvana, to my idol Taylor Swift. I turned on Change and started to practice gymnastics.

Oh yeah, I was huge into gymnastics. Don't judge. I could do pretty much everything. Back flips, ariels, back hand springs.... I loved gymnastics, and since nobody wanted to share a room with me (because I sometimes had to be checked on or I played my music way too loud) I had a room all to myself, which was pretty big since I rearranged.

I looked into the mirror. I had dirty blonde hair, that was down to my back and I wore it in a pony tail most the time. It was naturally curly too, which was annoying. My dark blue eyes almost looked black, which I thought was creepy.I was small for my age and let's just say I had a bit of a disease.

Yeah, I was one of those girls who was way to self conscious.

Repeating history and your getting sick of it.

Things will change, I can see it now.

You can walk away, say we don't need this
But there's something in your eyes says we can beat this

I turned it up louder, probably disturbing the people next to me.

Next week was the Taylor Swift 1989 World Tour Nashville, which is where I was.
And I couldn't believe it! My birth mom gave me money when I was a baby and I did chores here until I finally had enough money to go to the 1989 work tour, fourth row! IT WILL BE SO AMAZING I CAN'T EVEN...

So, this is my first chapter. Like it? Vote & Comment. Tell me what you think please.
