(A/N - Just because I'm nice, here's another short-ish chapter)

It's been 3 days. 3 peaceful days, just watching the world go by. Nice. I've eaten pretty well in the past 3 days aswell. How? Well, I saw Gee's secret stash of money, about $1,000, so I took half of it. Only half of it, not the whole lot, I promise.

No-one's bothered to speak to me either, which is nice. Well, except this tall, skinny man who had a really soft voice and a small stubble. He looked really familiar, and the 4 other guys lookes really familiar. Huh.

*2 weeks later*

I walked upto the place I've been searching for, for, well, a while. The orphanage. I wanted to go and tell a sob story, so I did just that.
I strolled up to the doors, banging furiously on them. While I waited for someone to answer, I rubbed my eyes until they were red, and had a little sniff, for effect.

30 seconds later, the door swung open, and there stood my favorite person. Michelle. She has a happy expression on her face, but it quickly changed into an unreadable one.

"A-Alice?" She stuttered. "Why are you here?"

Here goes nothing. "H-He kicked me out. I don't know why.. M-Michelle I need a place to stay.."

She nodded, one eyebrow raised. She stepped aside, welcoming me back. I immediately stuck to her side, wrapping my arms around her waist.

"Can I stay with you, I don't want to be a-alone.."

"Sure, but be quiet, it's adoption day today."

I nodded softly, and followed her to the "adoption room" as they call it.
I saw an empty chair, so I fast-walked over to it, and plopped down. Apparently, I made alot of noise, as everyone looked at me.. Whoops

I scanned the room discreetly, just incase they followed me here, but luckily they didn't.
But I caught a glimpse of a familiar looking man, chocolate brown hair in a sort of quiff, chocolate brown eyes, and geeky glasses sitting on the bridge of his nose.

Wait.. Is that..?
