My bad life turned good

Chapter twenty seven

*Emma's p.o.v.*

Instead of going home right after leaving Abby's house I went out for lunch with Hanna and Rebecca.

"I'm really happy for Steve," Rebecca said.

"So am I," Hanna said.

"And I'm real happy for both him and Abby," I said.

"Lets talk about our reasoning behind why we're happy," Hanna said.

"Okay," I said.

"Emma you first," Rebecca said.

"Well I'm happy because I know that Abby hasn't had an easy life because of her parents passing away, being taken away from her aunt and uncle, being sent to live with a new family and being taken out of that family and put back in child services while having to wait for another family to adopt her and take care of her, and now that she lives with the Richter family her life is getting better and she's starting to trust more people again," I said.

"Well I'm happy for Steve because he has been waiting to find a girl that he cannot just call his girlfriend but also call her one of his best friends, plus before he met Abby he had his heart broken a few times and said that he wouldn't date anyone unless they were real nice, sweet, kind and have a real big heart which Abby has," Hanna said.

"And lastly I'm happy for Steve because he has been waiting to find the right girl, one who he can tell anything to and she won't judge him, one who doesn't just want to date him because he's part of a band or because of the amount of money he has and one he likes him for him," Rebecca said.

"I think that Abby does care a lot about him, won't judge him and she doesn't care about how much money he has and she likes him for him," I said.

"True she does." Rebecca and Hanna said. It is true that Abby likes Steve for who he is and she doesn't want him any other way, she just wants him to be himself around her and treat her well, which he does for sure. After lunch Rebecca and Hanna took me to my house. When I got home I walked inside and found my dad in the living room.

"Hey dad," I said.

"Hey Emma," he said.

"How was your night?" I asked.

"It was good," he said, then asked, "how was the mall and the sleepover?"

"They were both good," I said.

"I have some news," he said.

"What is it?" I asked.

"I'm getting married to my girlfriend of three years," he said.

"You're marrying Megan?" I asked.

"Yes I am," he said.

"Awesome," I said.

"That means that you'll have a younger sister and an older brother," he said.

"You mean that Jessica and Adam will be my step siblings?" I asked.

"Yes," he said.

"Can't wait," I said, then asked, "When's the wedding?"

"July tenth," he said, then added, "you can invite some of your friends like Abby, Hanna, Rebecca, Steve, Kyle, Stephen, Daniel and Dan,"

"Okay," I said, then added on, "congrats by the way,"

"Thanks." He said. I went upstairs to my room and decided to text Abby, Steve, Stephen, Daniel, Dan, Kyle, Rebecca and Hanna to go on Skype that way we could talk about it face to face.

*Skype call*

"Hey guys," I said when they answered.

"Hey Emma," they said.

"I have some exciting news," I said.

"What is it?" Kyle asked.

"My dad is getting married to his girlfriend that he's been dating for the past three years and he said that I could invite you guys to the wedding," I said.

"When is it?" Stephen asked.

July tenth," I said.

"Well Abby, Daniel and I will be there for sure," Stephen said.

"Awesome," I said.

"I'll be there for sure," Steve said.

"I think we can come," Hanna and Rebecca said.

"Pretty sure I'll be there," Kyle said.

"Me too," Dan said.

"Okay well I'm gonna go," I said.

"Okay bye." They said.

*Steve's p.o.v.*

Abby and I have a bigger date coming up in about a month. We're going to a wedding for Emma's dad and his girlfriend. I can't wait to go on this date with Abby. Right now Abby is currently cuddling against me. My cousins went to bed a few hours ago.

"I'm so tired," Abby said.

"Do you want to go to bed?" I asked.

"Yes I do," she said.

"Okay." I said. I picked Abby up in my arms and carried her upstairs to my room. I put her down on the bed, and kissed her on the forehead. As soon as her head hit the pillow she fell asleep. I covered her up with the blankets.

"Steve," Abby said.

"Abby," I said.

"I'm cold," she said, then asked, "can you please cuddle with me?"

"Yes I can," I said.

"Thanks." She said. I laid down beside her and she cuddled up against me, I put my arms around her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Abby's p.o.v.*

I cuddled up against Steve to stay warm, because I was so cold.

"Abby," Steve said.

"Steve," I said.

"You feeling any better?" He asked.

"Yes thanks," I said.

"You're welcome." He said. I must say that I'm really glad that Steve is in my life and I feel really glad that I'm in his life and that he saved my life, and I couldn't be any more grateful that he's a huge part of my life.
