Am I Doomed To Be Alone?

A Budding Family

My Pov

Me and Sector Z had gone back to my house after we had gotten each of them new clothes.

. Bruce wore a dark blue turtleneck, grey jeans and black boots.

. David wore a red hoodie over a green T-shirt blue jeans and brown boots.

.Ashley wore a light blue tank top, dark purple shorts and green and white tennis shoes.

. Lenny wore and yellow T-shirt with a orange jacket, blue jeans and red and white tennis shoes.

.Connie wore a green shirt, pink shorts and blue and white tennis shoes.

Me: "I'm surprised you guys wanted to come to my house."

Constance: "Well, Sector V told us about your mom coming back and you having a new dad and everything." I took out my house key and opened the door. We walked inside. I went into the kitchen and opened the fridge. I saw some watermelon slices. On it was a note: 'For you and your friends'. How did Mom know I was bringing people over? I took them out to the living room where everyone was watching TV. I sat the plate down and each of us took a slice of watermelon.

Ashley: "This watermelon's really sweet!"

Lenny: "Yeah! It's delicious!"

Me: "Yeah. When it comes to fruit, my dad tries to get fresh fruit. And he only gets vegetables that I'd eat, meaning no broccoli!"

Bruce: "No way! Most adults try shoving broccoli down kids' throats." I shook my head.

Me: "Not my dad. He's like a kid at heart. He's able to understand how kids feel. That makes him a really good doctor."

David: "So, where are your parents?"

Me: "Mom took my dogs to the vet for a check up and Dad should be getting home soon." After a while, I heard the door open followed by barking. Then, two little blurs zipped around the corner of the couch before jumping into my lap. It was my dogs of course. "Hello you two."

Mom: "Honey, is that you?" I got off the couch and ran over to my mom and hugged her. Despite knowing she was finally back, I still would feel relieved when she would come back home. She was in her silhouette suit, which was outlined in blue. Also, when she was in her silhouette suit, she emitted this sparkling love aura. It could rub off on people around her and make them sparkle with the aura. "How is my precious baby girl?"

Me: "Fine." That's when she turned her attention to Sector Z. They shrank behind the couch, somewhat afraid of my mom. "Mom, these are my bestest friends; Bruce, David, Ashley, Lenny and Connie." Her silhouette faded and she smiled warmly at them.

Mom: "Are they staying for dinner?" I gently pushed her in the kitchen while the other played with my dogs. "Sweetie, what's wrong?"

Me: "Well, actually... I was hoping they could stay way past dinner. Like about... forever?"

Mom: "Honey I know that they're your friends, but I'm sure that they're parents want them home." I sort of froze. How was I suppose to tell her that their parents were either dead or had abandoned them and that they were brainwashed and adopted by Father? "My goodness! Those poor dears! How could Ben do that to five innocent children?!"

Me: "Huh? How did you know what he did?"

Mom: "One of mine and your powers is psychic abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis and mind-reading. That's how I knew you were bringing friends over and what you were thinking. I'd love for them to stay, but let's see if it's okay with your dad first." So, I went back out to the living room.

Me: "Hey guys. Are my pups behaving?"

Constance: "They're so cute!"

Me: "Hey, what would you guys think about living here?"

Ashley: "Living with you would be awesome. Your mom seems like a good adult and the way you talk about your dad, he sounds great too."

Me: "There's just one thing you need to know about him before he gets home. He's... Father's twin brother." I noticed the shock appear on their faces. "Don't worry! He's the exact opposite of Father. He loves kids, he's kind, he's caring and he's loving. He's an awesome daddy."

Bruce: "Well, if you say so Erika. We all trust your judgment." After about another hour, I heard a car pulling up.

Me: "Daddy's home!" I jumped up and ran to the door. It opened to reveal my dad, who looked exhausted. "Hi Daddy. Long day?"

Dad: "You wouldn't believe it. But, coming home to you and your mother makes it worth it." That's when he noticed the others. " Hello. Who are all of you?"

Mom: "These are Erika's dearest friends. That's Connie, that's David, that's Lenny, that's Bruce and that's Ashley."

Dad: "Nice to meet you all." He held out his hand. At first, the others were hesitant, but then one by one they shook his hand. After a while, we all sat down at dinner. I felt happy having my teammates here. It was almost like they were my brothers and sisters again, except this time I like the feeling of it. After a while, we all sat in the living room and watched a movie. I don't how it end, seeing as I fell alseep. All six of us did. Well, after the day we had can you blame us?

John's Pov

The movie was over and I was beat.

Beatric: "Aww. John, look." I looked and saw Erika and her friends alseep. Chocolate was sleeping on David's lap and Vanilla was asleep on Erika's lap.

Me: "Let's get them all to bed." We first took Lenny and Constance to separate guest rooms, then Ashley and Bruce to other rooms not too far from them, then finally we went to get Erika and David when woke up.

David: "Where am I?"

Beatrice: "You're at our house David. You fell alseep sweetheart." He was out of it, but nodded. I threw one of his arms over my shoulders and carried him upstairs, while Beatrice carried Erika and her dogs. I placed David on his bed and pulled the blankets over him. I patted his back.

David: "Good night, Dad." I smiled. Lenny and Bruce had said the same thing to me and the girls had called Beatrice 'mom'. Maybe in time, we could be parents to these kids. I had caught a glimpse of the files from Erika and with what these kids have gone through, they needed all the love and care we could give them.

Sorry this took so long to post and sorry if it sucks. Also, I've been hired at my first job. Since I'mjust starting out, I'll only be working 15-20 hours a week. But, since I don't know my schedule yet, I will be putting off my writing for a while. At least until I get use to the schedule.
