My favourite girl (A Riker Lynch Story)

Chapter one

Riker's POV

I pull up outside the Orphanage. As I turn off the ignition I take a deep, calming breath. Am I really ready? Of course I am. I think as I enter the building. I walk up to the front desk.

"Hello, my name is Riker Lynch and I am interested in adopting a child" I introduce to the worker. She looks my age and smiles at me.

"Of course Mr Lynch. Were you thinking of adopting a boy or a girl?" She asks.

"A girl" I answer with a small smile.

"What age?"

"Between three and seven" I reply.

"Right this way then" she says as she stands and lead me out into a courtyard. I see at least thirty little girls who could all become the newest Lynch.

"Line up girls who are between the ages of three and seven" she says and suddenly the crowd disperses so that there were about seven left. I begin to look at each of them until I see one little girl in the back. I move closer and crouch down so that I was looking into her eyes. They were a beautiful shade of brown.

"Hi there. What's your name?" I ask.

"Madison" she answers sweetly

"How old are you?"

"three"

I take in her clothes. Blue Converse, ripped jeans, a pink top and a small jacket. Her blonde hair was tied back in a ponytail. Her eyes lock onto mine and I can almost picture looking after her. Teaching her how to play ice hockey and the guitar. Breaking a boy's arm if he ever hurt her. Walking her down the aisle on her wedding day.

"Can you be my daddy?" she asks, her eyes wide. I smile

"Yes. I can" I answer as I stand up and offer my hand to her. We walk back into the building and I sign the paper work for her. We then head back to my car and I drive home with the newest Lynch.

~At the Lynches~

"You ready to meet your Auntie and Uncles?" I ask as I help her out of the car. She nods her head excitedly. We go into the house and I take her into the living room.

"Everyone, I want to introduce you to a very special person" I say as everyone turns to me.

"Riker has a girlfriend!" Ross and Rocky sing. I roll my eyes at them. Before looking back at my new daughter and extending my hand to her.

"This is Madison. My daughter" I introduce as I bring her into the room. Rydel comes closer but Madison hides behind my leg. I crouch down to her level.

"What is it?" I ask.

"Scared" she mumbles

"You have nothing to be scared of sweetie. This is your Auntie Rydel" I say kindly. "And that is your Uncle Ross, Uncle Rocky, Uncle Ryland, Uncle Ellington, Grandma Stormie and Grandpa Mark" I softly introduce pointing each person out.

"Riker, have you thought about this?" asks dad.

"Yes. Please. I know that it is a lot of responsibility but I feel ready" I answer

"Alright. You can keep her." He says.

"Do you want to go with Auntie Rydel for a bit?" I ask. She nods. "Off you go then." She starts to walk away. I stand up I turn to wave her off but she runs back to me and I take her into my arms.

"I love you daddy" she says. I could almost feel my heart swell.

"I love you too princess. Now be good for Auntie Delly, okay?" I reply as I put her down.

"Del, get her what ever she wants okay?" I say before she leaves. I sink onto the couch and smile to myself.

"She called me daddy" I whisper to myself.
