Shelby's POV
And after thanking him for everything I go down stairs, Max stayed behind sitting on his bed, so I go down stairs and sit on the couch and talk for what it seems like forever, we talk about food and we laugh and smile and then talk about our past ( Hey! I was wondering what everyone has gone through and stuff like that, I didn't mean for everything to turn like this ) John who was smiling suddenly turned into a frown and he starts tha me conversation and everyone else follows talking and talking then as John was talking I wondered inside my head and I repeated and repeated over and over my past My dad died when I was 6 and my mom having only me left made every decision about us, we didn't have a lot of money so she hired a babysitter and went to do her job as a grocery store accountant, after she quit that she went into banking and she's been in that job ever since.
Max's POV
Over hearing about what everyone has gone through makes me feel like nothing, I walked to the window and a slight breeze came in, I went to the night stand and opened the drawer grabbed my journal ( I know what you might be thinking, this 20 year old has a journal what a child, but here's where your wrong, I've had this journal ever since my parents left me and that was when I was 13, anyway plus if you didn't get it I'm adopted it's also my burden where everyone teases me about my parents. Crazy right! ) So I opened it and started to write,

Moving can be stressful and crazy, but when I met John it was amazing, and I'm not gay either but I've met so many people being his friend like Shelby, I know I literally just met her, but she makes me feel safe, secure and fun again.
No! No! I don't have a crush on Shelby Grace!! I just met her!!! Last time I felt like this she betrayed me! I will never feel like that again!! Not ever and definitely not now!!!!

Michael's POV
It was really fun talking to Shelby, she's fun and cute ( NOT LIKE THAT!!! ) She loves Cupcakes! And I do too!! She's sitting there and smiling and laughing. I know I just met her, but I only have my friends, my family is all the way in New York and my brother John is here with me so I guess I have family?,but not really. I see Max come down the stairs he has the sour face again, he's always thinking about the past and it makes him sad, but now I don't know what's wrong it's like a different face......... Maybe Shelby!! No!!!!

Jess's POV
I see Max come down stairs with the face again, he always thinks why did his parents leave him? He's tried the police and everyone to try and find his Real parents I would leave it alone if I where him, his parents made there decision when he was 13 and that's that. I look away continuing the conversation about my past, everyone has a past. But in this house the past is crazy, Adoption, Dyeing, Crazy right!!! My past isn't that bad except my mom died when she gave birth to me and my dad thinks I'm the one who killed her so he ignores me and it's been that way for my entire life, I cook, clean, and I do everything to try and please my dad, did it work? Hell no! So I decided to run away and that's where I found John and everybody else on the streets, and I found Shelby at school before everything went down.

John's POV
I don't really have a past, my family's cool and fun, but my grandpa died the month after I was born!! And I'm named after my grandpa John Steven Norman, Crazy right!!?? Things in this house are crazy, stupid and dumb, for example one time we thought Jess was pregnant! When she was just sick and the pregnancy test was wrong, was out of battery!! That gave me anxiety!!!!!!
**I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO WRITE!!!**

Shelby's POV
Everything in this house is SO dark!!!!! Everyone has a Crazy Past!!! We just let everything go telling each other about our story and Max seems a little mad, jumpy I don't know how to explain it, ever since I got here. Maybe it's me?! But the rest of the night we all got settled in and everything, me and Max's room was all the way down the hall, Michael's room was right across from ours and Jess and John's room was next to it and every room had its own bathroom, which was pretty cool, so after thinking about everything I picked up my phone and texted my mom,
Hi mom!
Hi sweetie!! How are you!!??
I'm all good, it's so fun here!
Good!! Do you have enough money there?!
Ya I have the 2 thousand you left me, I can give it back, 2 thousand is a lot!!
No you keep it, that will be enough for a few months then I can give you more
No I'll be just fine and I'll visit you next week too!
Awwww! You remembered!! Well you should get going to bed I'll text you in the morning!
Ok, bye mom!!
Bye honey!!
Then after getting done with talking I fell asleep instantly.
