I awoke to a loud ringing coming from the halls. Elliot must've left when I fell asleep. Sitting up, I got ready and grabbed some toast.
"Bye," I mumbled, stumbling out of the door. I collapsed in my bus seat and listened to music all the way to school.

Le time skip (lunch)
----------------------------------------------

I sat down with Elliot and Jessii with my lunch. We talked and ate and the bell finally rung. We stood up and headed to English.
"Oi bitch face!" I heard Ava call. "Get your fat a** over here!"
Hannah ran up behind me and grabbed my bag, before dragging me towards Ava. Struggling to get out of her grasp, Ava slammed me into the lockers and pulled my hair.
"Get the f*** off of me! Don't f****** touch me!" I screamed, before grabbing her and pushing her to the floor. Walking over go Hannah, I slapped her across the face and walked back to Jessii.
"Wow," she whispered before we finished the day.

I opened the door to chaos. Two of the boys were running around screaming, the babies were covered in jam and juice and 3 of the girls were pouring cereal everywhere. I sighed, shook my head and went upstairs.

Abby's POV:
I heard the door handle turn and looked down from where I was unpacking. The last orphanage had been shut down and I had been sent here. Suddenly, a red haired, green eyed, familiar face walked in.
"Willow!" I gasped and ran over to hug her.
"Abby!" She cried and hugged me back.

After Willow had helped me unpack, she told me that she wanted me to meet some people. She asked Mrs Applewood if she could have people over and texted them.

Elliot's POV:
I was sat on my bed reading, when I got a text.

W: Hey! Can you come over to the adoption centre with Jessii? I want you to meet someone! ❤️
E: Sure baby. Be right over! Xx

I texted Jessii and my dad drove me to get Jessii and then to the Apple Tree adoption centre. Before I could knock, the door was flung open by a happy looking Willow.
"Hey!" She exclaimed.
"Hiya," I replied, hugging her.

Jessii's POV:
Elliot and I were dragged to Willows room, when we saw a girl sitting on the bed next to Willows.
"Guys, this is Abby!" She smiled.
"Hey!" Elliot and I waved. We introduced ourselves and watched movies. Later on, Elliot's dad picked me and Elliot off and I went straight to bed.

Willows POV:
Finally, it's Saturday. But, it's adoption day. I heaved myself out of bed and got ready for the day.
"Will all girls aged 10-18 come down to the sitting room please and line up in alphabetical order," the intercom blared. Signing, I walked downstairs and went to the end of the line. Lots of couples and families walked in, but only one caught my eye. A couple, with 2 children. A tall, green eyed boy around 17 years old, wearing a long white shirt and ripped jeans. A short, roughly 14 year old girl with pastel pink hair, blue eyes and a tank top on. They looked interesting.
