I've only just met Danneel, but I could tell that she already really cared for me and she was such a nice person, she already felt like a mom to me. She could never replace what I had, but she cared for me and that all I could ask for. 

Justice already considered me to be her sister and it wasn't hard for me to see her as my little sister. 

I've known Jensen for longer than the two of them because of Supernatural. I used to have the biggest crush on him and his character Dean. I thought it would be so hard to see him as my father, but from the moment he adopted me my view on him changed. 

They were family. 

I just knew that I would fit in here and I wouldn't have to worry about who I was, they already loved me and nothing could change that. 

After we finished eating and cleared off the table, I helped Danneel do dishes while Jensen played with Justice. The dishes had all been put away and I had a sudden need for some alone time. 

I excused myself and headed to my temporary room. 

My actual room wouldn't take much more work. I would only have to put all of the furniture in and decorate, then I could move into it. 

That room was going to be so perfect, I could already see it. 

The length that my new parents were willing to go to to make sure that I was comfortable and that this transition was as easy as possible, was just incredible. 

I would have never imagined that this was going to happen. That I was going to lose my family and end up as Jensen's daughter. 

Yes, the loss of my family was still hard. It had only been about two weeks, even less than that, but being in this atmosphere with people who I knew cared for me, it was hard to be completely sad. 

It was always at the back of my mind. I still felt guilty, like I should've been there to stop it or to help or at least try, but with both Jensen and Danneel, the guilt lessened. I felt better and I almost felt guilty for not being as sad as I should be. 

It was really hard at first. They were the closest thing I held in my heart and they were just suddenly gone, never to see them again.

Then, no one wanted me. For the first time, I was truly alone. I was living at the orphanage and I had Ms. Perkins, but most of the time she was all business. 

I almost felt like Annie. 

Then came along Jensen. He adopted me, introduced me to a new life a new family and suddenly I wasn't alone anymore. It was taking a lot to get used to it though. I still felt awkward. 

The whole time when we were shopping I was constantly worrying about how much the items I wanted were and whether or not I was asking for too much. 

I was new to all of this. Not worrying about prices and being able to get whatever you wanted. 

However, it was easier with Jensen and Danneel to guide me, Justice for comic relief. 

I was still feeling the loss of my family though and that was what was really tough. I would never again watch anime with my sister. I would never again ask my brother for gaming advice. I would never again help my mom put together the puzzle she brought out. 

I still wasn't sure exactly how to act around Jensen, seeing as he was now my father. I had never had a father figure in my life and, while I watched other people interact with their dads, I really had no idea what a father/daughter relationship was. I had no idea what a father normally did with their daughters, it was a mystery to me. 

Once again, I was sitting on the window seat. 

I looked away from the window, bringing my knees up to my chest and wrapping my arms around me. I buried my face in my knees, I needed the comfort. 

Minutes later the door opened. 

"Are you okay, sweetheart?" 

I laughed lightly, not even moving my head up to look. Somehow he always knew when I was feeling down and wanted to talk to someone, but just couldn't get up and seek out someone myself. 

I felt him sit down beside me on the window seat and I finally looked up at him, opting to stare at his chest instead of looking him straight in the eye. 

"Yeah, it's just all lot to take in. I'm still trying to find my place and adjust." 

"That's understandable. This is all new to you. It's gonna take some time to get used to. But, Danneel and I have already talked to you about rules and expectations. As long as you follow the rules, you can just be yourself. However, I know that's not the only thing that's bothering you." 

I sighed. I've known him for less than a week and he can already read me like a book. 

"I don't know if you knew this or not, but my biological father left when I was about two. I don't remember anything about him. I've never had a father figure in my life, of any sort. I don't know what a father/daughter relationship is like. All I know is that I like what we have. I don't.... I don't want to mess it up." 

"Bella, you could never mess it up. You're my daughter and I love you. Nothing could change that. As for what it's like? I'll teach you. I'll show you what it's like. It's special, something that no one can mess with. You don't need to worry about anything." 

I let what he said soak in for a little and then I simply nodded. 

What do you say to that? 

Thanks? 

"Danneel is putting Justice to bed and then we'll be heading to bed too. You should as well, we have a lot to do tomorrow in your room." 

We both stood up and I gave him a hug, wrapping my arms around him tightly, my silent thanks for the pep talk. If you could call that a pep talk. 

"Goodnight, sweetheart." 

He pulled back and placed a light kiss on my forehead. 

"Goodnight, Dad," I said. 

He walked out, softly closing the door behind him and turning out the light, per my request. I heard his footsteps fading away before I realized just how tired I was. I slowly and drowsily changed into my pj's and crawled into bed, having one of the most peaceful nights of sleep since it happened.
