Just The Adopted Girl

Chapter Four

I wake up to violent shaking. I open my eyes and see Grayson. " Addilyn! Wake up" he yells.

I groan and check my phone. It's eight o'clock in the morning. I look beside me and see no Lily.
" Grayson, where is Lily?" I ask, rubbing my head.

" She had to go, but get up! James made pancakes!" He giggles. I just smile and simply say " I don't like pancakes." I watch the smile fall off of his face. " You what?"

" I don't like pancakes" I shrug and get out of the bed. He is shocked. " You are weird. But there is a party tonight here. So get ready. Even though it starts at eight o'clock." He rambles.

I nod and I grab out some clothes.
" Uh, are you gonna get out so I can get dressed?" I ask. He blushes and runs out of my room. I hear loud foot steps go downstairs.

I put on a crop top and some ripped leggings. I put my hair in a cool braid bun thing, and I throw on my converse.

I walk downstairs and meet the guys in the kitchen.
" Good morning sister" James says. I smile at him and grab a cookie.

I check my phone and see I have a text from Lily.

Lily: Sorry. I had to go to dance practice. I remember when you use to dance, you were amazing. But I will see you later!

I smile. I love to dance. I am really good at it but Lily is a lot more talented.

I go in the living room and turn the TV on. I watch it for awhile then I get bored. It is one o'clock now and I'm getting hungry.

" James" I whine. He walks in and I whine again,
" I'm hungry" he laughs and grabs his keys.

" I'll be back" I nod and take a little nap on the couch.

I'm awoken but James shaking me slightly. " TACO BELL" I laugh.

It was finally eight and a lot of people start coming in. I walk in the kitchen and see beer.

I shake my head at the teenagers and walk back out. What I see is heart crushing.

Grayson kissing another girl. No we aren't a thing, but I really liked him. Tears start to swell up in my eyes and I run. I trip on something and almost fell on my face.

Almost.

Someone caught me. I look up at them and they quickly ask me " Hey, what's wrong?" They wipe the tears that are now rolling down my face.

" Nothing, I'm fine" I look down. He grabs my chin and lightly makes me look at him.

" C'mon let's talk" I just nod, knowing he won't drop it. I grab his arm and pull him up to my room.

I sit on my bed and he follows. Hearing the muffled music from downstairs. " What is your name?" I ask him wiping my tears. " Oh, I'm Jack Gilinsky" he smiles. I nod and he asks, " What is yours?"

" My name is Addilyn Charles. Well, I think. I was adopted a few days ago." I shyly look down. He smiles yet again.

" Well, Addilyn, why were you crying?" He asks.
" Well, do you know Grayson Dolan?" I ask him getting up to change. He nods.

" Well, I like him. But don't tell him please. But I was walking and I saw him kissing another girl. I know I shouldn't cry over it because we weren't dating but my heart kinda broke about it" I ramble grabbing a grey hoodie that was on my bed.

I didn't care whose it was. I hear him start talking when I walk in my closet and close the door. " I know what you mean," he starts. I take off my crop top and put the hoodie on. I walk out and grab make up wipes. Starting to wipe my makeup off.

" I use to like this girl and she flirted with me a lot, then when I was about to ask her out she told me she had a boyfriend. I was heart broken" he tells me. I nod, " Well, I guess we both get each other" he chuckles slightly.

I take out my hair as we sit there for a bit. It is really curly. " Hey, what's your Snapchat?" He pulls out his phone. I grab mine and pull up my code.

We add each other and he says " Well, I have to go. My buddy wants to leave. But I'll text you tomorrow, Bye Addilyn." he says leaving my room. " Bye Jack."

I lay down on my bed and grab my pillow. I cuddle with it and fall asleep.

I wake up and rub my head. I have a major headache. I stand up and look in the mirror.

My phone buzzes and I grab it.

Snapchat
Jack Gilinksy

I smile and slide over. I type in my password and open it.

'Good morning bestie' he put with a picture of him smiling.

I smile and text him 'hey'

I walk out of my room and go downstairs. I slide into the kitchen with my socks on and see all of the guys sitting at the table. I roll my eyes at them.

Grayson looks at me very confused. I walk out and go back to my room. I jump on my bed and I hear my door open.

I turn over and see Ethan.

" What do you want Ethan?" I ask him. " I was wondering, um, do you know that's Graysons hoodie?" He asks. I open my eyes and roll them.

" Hold on" I tell him. I grab out a crop top and walk in my closet. I yank off the hoodie and put the crop top on.

" Here" I toss it to him. He catches it.
" Oh, You didn't need to give it back. I was just wondering" he tells me. " It's fine. I shouldn't be wearing it anyways." I tell him.

He was about to say something before I intruded.
" Ethan. I am tired. Can you please leave? We can talk later M'kay?" I ask him, with a slight smile. He nods and leaves.

Today is going to be great, not.
