I cant believe what just happened! My favourite band literally just showed up and adopted me and now here I am in there car. I am sitting right in between Michael and Calum on the way to their house. How far is it? What time should we get there? Are we stopping anywhere? How much do they know about me? How did they find my orphanage?? I don't know but I cant ask so I guess I will just have to go with it.

Just as I'm wondering all these things my stomach growls loud enough for china to hear. In all the excitement, and confusion I must have worked up an appetite. All the boys whip their heads around to me and Ash looks in the mirror at me.

"Well why didn't you just say so?" He says with a smirk. I giggle internally.

We pull off the road at this little hole in the wall restaurant thats probably older then if not the same age as the orphanage. We go inside and the boys start bickering about what they want to have. Once they are all settled Luke turns to me.

"What would you like Taylor, anything you want"

I see in the display case a piece of Hawaiian pizza.

"Good choice Taylor you shall survive at your new home" Michael says "for we eat pizza like its our religion"

I smile at his joke a little as the counter girl hands me my pizza. We all move to sit at a booth by the window.

"So Taylor you mind is probably racing with questions" Ash says

I nod a little to let him know I'm listening.

"Well honestly we came out here to adopt a child today because at a meet and greet about three weeks ago we met this girl Savannah, she told us about this grungy dirty orphanage that she stayed at till she was adopted by a really nice couple. Anyway, after speaking with her the thought of this orphanage and all these kids kept bothering us in the back of our minds." Says Luke

"So we decided to approach management and they said it was a great idea and we could go when we finished our string of shows" explains Ash "Then when we came through the door at the orphanage and found you at the bottom of the stairs there was something about you that all of us thought was different then the rest of the kids in there, we wanted to be the ones to help you escape from that horrible nasty place."

"You don't deserve to have had to stay there for as long as you did" Calum says with sympathy in his eyes

"We don't know your story or what happened. We asked Mrs Peters to let you tell us when your ready. But that isn't in any rush because we have the rest of our lives as a family to discuss that" Ash says

For the first time in a long time I decided to let my feelings rise to the surface for them to see. I felt tears roll down my cheeks. But not tears of sadness. These tears where the result of finally feeling hope. Feeling my walls quickly being torn down by these four boys. We hadn't even personally known each other for a full day but I knew that these boys might finally be be the key to normal.

Calum reaches over from beside me in the booth and wraps his arms around me. I flinch and stiffen up a little but then I relax and let him hold me. Feeling comforted and having finished our lunch we leave the restaurant and get back in the car.

I must have fallen asleep again because when I woke I was leaning up against Calum and we where pulling up into the driveway.

I sat up and adjusted myself giving Calum an apologetic smile

"Its okay Taylor, don't worry about it really." He grins

"Welcome home Sweetheart" Luke says as we are getting out of the car.
