Lyla's POV
"All orphans please come to the living room please." Said the voice over the intercom. I always hated this day. Every month different families come here and look at the kids they might want to adopt. Of course I've gotten adopted plenty of times but they always turn out the same way. I get abused or ignored and end up being bullied by the other kids at the orphanage. That's why I always either stay in my room or ignore the other people. I've come to the conclusion that I will never have a family. I was sitting my bed listening to all time low's therapy when someone knocked on my door. "Come in." And Olivia, the woman who ran the orphanage walked in. "Come on Lyla you have to come out and meet the new family's." I shook my head no. "Nobody likes me, It'll just turn out the same way, what's the point. Just tell them I'm not here." She sighed and walked out.
I laid down on my back and stared at the ceiling. The song switched to outer space/carry on by 5 seconds of summer. I never bothered to learn the names or faces of the band members cause I didn't care, I only cared about the music.
I can still taste the ocean
Like it was today
You said please keep on holding
your hand and the rain it came too soon
I will wait for you
To love me again
I decided to skip it to my favorite part I always listened to whenever I was down, like right now.
Nothing like the rain nothing like the rain
When you're in outer space when you're in outer space
When you're in outer space when you're in outer space
I just put this part on repeat until I drifted off into outer space, also known as sleep.
Michael's POV
I was on pinterest reading some stories about children who had been through a lot of bad things in their lives and someone finally found them and fixed them up. It reminded me about how me, Ashton, Luke and Calum helped each other get through even the toughest times. It made want to help someone heal. I went downstairs and grabbed the keys to my car. "Hey mate, where you going?" Calum asked. "I'm going to adopt a child, want to come with?" "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you sure you want to do this I mean that's a pretty big responsibility. " "Yes, I'm sure. There are children out there who need somebody to love them but don't. I'm gonna be that person. So, you coming with me or not?" "Yeah sure." Calum replied and we went to Mrs. Olivia's orphanage for boys and girls that was about an hour away, it was actually the closest one to our house.
Once we arrived at the orphanage we saw that there were other families there to. "Hi, may I help you?" A woman said. "Yes, we are looking to adopt. I'm Michael and this is my friend Calum." I introduced us. "Well, I'm Olivia. Nice to meet you Michael and Calum. I can introduce you to all the children and you can see which one you want." We both nodded and started to get to know the children.
