Adopted by Michael Jackson

Chapter 2

Carly's P.O.V.

I sat in the corner as I watched Michael talk to the other kids. He wouldn't want to talk to me anyway. No one does so why would he? I rested my head on my knees and just stayed like that basically. I suddenly felt someone beside me.

I looked up a little bit and looked to my side and saw Michael looking at me.

"Hey, what's wrong?" he asked.

"Nothing" I simply answered. He seemed friendly but I'm still afraid of men even if it was Michael Jackson the most famous person on the planet. Maybe even on other planets.

"Well what's your name?" he asked.

"Carly" I said quietly.

"It's nice to meet you Carly, I'm Michael. So what's your age and favourite colour?" he continued.

"Ten and red" I said making my answers as short as I possibly could, I still don't know if I should trust him.

"Why are you sitting here alone?" he asked.

I hesitated a bit before answering. "No one likes me." I said quietly.

"What makes you say that?" he asked.

"They all act like I'm never here" I said. I actually like him a little but I know not to get too close to him because he might hurt me.

"They're just jealous trust me. Someone loves you, like me. I love you"he said and I half smiled.

"Thanks, Michael" I said.

"I'll see you soon" he said.

Did he just say see you soon? what did he mean about that? He's only coming for one day. right? My thoughts where interrupted by Brittany's voice.

"Ok kids, Michael has chosen who he wants to adopt-"

"WHO?" She got interrupted by Ellie.

"He has chosen to adopt Carly" she said calmly.

"WHAT? WHY? WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO ADOPT THAT BRAT!?" Ellie shouted and stomped off out of the room.

"Come on Carly" Michael smiled.

I got up and made my way over to him and he reached out his hand for me to take but I wouldn't take it.

We went into the main hall and Michael signed some papers and then turned to me.

"Ready?" he asked.

"Don't I need to get my stuff?" I asked.

"Don't worry about that. I have stuff at home" he said and I nodded.

He reached out his hand and hesitated to take it but did anyways and we walked outside the orphanage to his limo and got in. when we got in I realised that there was another guy.

"Carly, I would like you to meet Bill my bodyguard" Michael introduced me.

"Hi Bill" I said shyly.

"Hey there kid" he said back cheerfully.

"So Carly... Tell me a bit about yourself" Michael continued.

"What would you like know?" I asked quietly.

"Um..this see, what's you're favourite colour, what music do you like to listen to?" He asked.

"My favourite colour is red and I like to listen to Little Mix I said (A.N. I know Little Mix wasn't around then but let's just pretend for the stories sake)

"Really? Red is my favourite colour to" he said excitingly.

"Really? Cool!" I said. correction,almost shouting.

For the rest of the car ride we talked about random things like animals and music. Not long after we arrived at these amazing gates that where gold with the words 'Neverland' wrote across them.

We drove through the gates and I swore this was Disney world. There was a theme park that I could see in the distance with a HUGE house surrounded by a lot of trees and decorations that looked electrical. My mouth dropped open in amazing.

Michael laughed a little and said "Welcome to your new home Carly Jackson, also known as Neverland."

"We actually live here?" I asked.

"Yep" Michael said while popping the 'p'.

Wow. I can't believe this is where I will really be living.
