I had a very old MP3 player in my room and some earphones I found in another orphan's bin one time that still worked. Together they were the things that kept me going, the things that made me feel so alive. I plugged in the dirty earphones to the over-large, scratched player and listened to some heavy metal. Just to let out my anger I guess.
I was in the middle of listening to Metallica when the track changed to Fear of the Dark by Iron Maiden. Its a classic! I recently discovered the life in their music, it is definitely more uplifting. It was so awesome! 'You have the feeling that something's always near... " That was when a man in a suit and a young boy came knocking and barging into my room. I couldn't say it was rude because they knocked but all the same, I could have been doing anything. That sounded more wrong than I thought.
The man looked like he was in his mid forties, had dirty blonde hair reaching his shoulders, a very large, pointy nose and thin, dark lips. He was standing straight, as if a plank of wood was holding him up. However, the boy looked around my age with light brown hair swept slightly to the right, a lip piercing, beautiful emerald eyes and thick, perfectly shaped eyebrows.
"Hello, I'm Vance and this is Jason" The man growled. I took my earphones out. "I recognise you..." I looked at them oddly, or so Mrs White thought anyway. "Hannah Jane Beech! How dare you be so rude! Scrum! You're never going to be adopted! Come boys, lets find someone else. Amelia is well behaved and kind. How about it?" Over dramatic much? I guess she got carried away because she ended up talking to herself and walking away. So called Vance and Jason smiled at me. "Aren't you going with her? It's like she said, I'm scum, no one wants to adopt me." I murmured.
"Pack your bags" A woman was standing behind the two boys. "Oh hi Mum!" Jason said.
"Go on, hurry" Another boy had appeared, who looked around 22.
"What?" Why would anyone want me as their child?
"Do it Hannah, we're going to adopt you!"
"Oh my God!"
"What, why are you so surprised someone adopted you princess?"
"Sorry, I don't mean to be rude by staring but.." I thought how I would put this; so many ways! "Thank you!" And we grinned at each other like it was the first time we had smiled for a long time. Well that was the case for me.HA! Screw you orphanage! I was just adopted by the best family in da big, fat WORLD!
Thank you so much for reading guys! I didn't really know how to start and got really tired in the middle but kept going; just for you! Tell me how I did, this is my first fanfic so wish me luck! Thanks for your support! Baiiii!
