Chapter 8

Gracie's POV

Weeks went by since the last time with April.

I dressed in a grey lose dress, throwing on my big pink winter coat. Lastly I threw on some grey pumps.

"Are you ready to be adopted?" Anthony questioned.

I smiled, but was I? "Yes."

"Alright. Let's get this show on the road!" Jazzy rubbed her hands together.

We walked down to Midtown Court House . Once we arrived, My eyes met Lin's.

"Hi, Lin." I went to hug Lin, and then his wife Vanessa. She was holding their son Sebastian.

"Hi, kiddo, are you nervous?" Lin asked me.

"Yeah. I guess. " I twisted shoes, in a nervous fashion.

"It's going to be all okay." He reassured me.

All six of us entered the court house. We had to wait for about 15 minutes. Until my time, my court adoption time.

Lin, Vanessa, and Sebastian sat in audience seating. While Anthony, Jazzy, Stephan, and I sat in front at the desk before the judge.

"Please rise for the honorable judge Joseph Filce."

We all rose, "We are hear to witness the prominent adoption of Gracie Daniels."

"Her adopting parents please rise." Anthony and Jasmine ross from their seats, "You are Mr. Ramos and Mrs. Jones."

"Correct, your honor." Anthony spoke.

During the hearing, The judge asked a serious of questions. Including: What neighborhood do we live in, Did they have the means to supply for me, Where they worked, and Did Stephan think Jasmine and Anthony would be suitable parents.

Then, it was declared that I was an official member of the Ramos family.

It was a very exciting time. I had spent a long time with Jasmine. I think Jasmine was more excited about decorating my room than I was.

"Gracie, are you nervous?" Carleigh asked me.

A couple days ago was my court date and today was my first show. Andy has been drilling me hard on dance routines. Thayne has been very patient with me, with learning new dances.

"I'm nervous. I honestly just don't know how I'm going to do." I told her.

"Five minutes til places." I heard through the intercom.

I felt chills throughout my body, "You are going to do great, G."

"Gracie!" I looked around to the doorway, it was Thayne.

"First show Routine. Come on, Let's take a picture."

I walked out of the door, and talked with Thayne. Once we took the picture, he comforted me. He told me that I was a great little performer, and I was going to do fine.
