Hey, supervaloian's I've been writing a lot in the past couple of days, I hope you like the chapter, I am going to try and update daily. 

Melissa's POV

"We would love that," I said with a smile.

"Great, so what I am going to get you to sign a few papers, of course, you are doing this through The school so you don't need to do the whip fit to be foster parents." She said with a slight chuckle. Chris and I both nodded and signed the forms. "Beth comes here," I said. "Guess what?" I asked her. "What," she asked confused "Looks like us girls are going to go on a shopping trip to get a bunk bed and some new clothes for you Beth," I said to her with a smile. She engulfed me in a hug and Olivia came running over to us wanting to join in the hug. Chris and I both smiled at the new addition to our family. Even though she wasn't ours yet, and weren't even sure if we would adopt her just yet, she was still part of the family. Soon all the dogs came over and started to jump up and down wanting to join in. "Oh that reminds me, is Beth allowed to do any after school activity? Like Baseball?" I asked.
"Oh, of course, we always encourage foster parents to do that, but sometimes it can be too much because it comes out of their own money, but I gather that it won't matter to you two?" She asked us. Chris and I both nodded. "I will leave her in your care thank you again for doing this I am sure that both Beth and Olivia are very happy and I hope that you can do the same with Beth that you did with Olivia," Beth's Social worker said with a smile. Her social worker left leave Melissa and Chris's family up to four almost five.

Authors POV

That afternoon the three girls went out shopping so they could get a new bed each and get Beth new clothes and a few things for Olivia since she would get jealous even though she only got her new things a few months ago. Beth and Olivia were walking alongside Melissa picking out some clothes they could try on and give her a fashion show. Olivia sat her mum down next to the fitting room, the two girls were in. While the two girls were trying on clothes two girls around the same age as Olivia and Beth and asked Melissa for a signature. Melissa didn't normally do this type of thing and quite a lot of people gave her space while out with Olivia, but the girl's mother really begged her to give her girls an autograph and photo. Olivia and Beth peek their heads out to see their mother just taking a photo, she peaked her head up to see Olivia and Beth's head peaking out. "Sorry girl, my two girls are trying on some clothes and they want to show me," She told the girls. Their girl's mother was a little upset but she took her girls away, so she could see her girls with the clothes on. Olivia and Beth came out with a smile on their face in matching outfits. Melissa's heart melted and she couldn't help but laugh. "Girls you wear matching uniforms at school. You don't have to do it at home too" Melissa explained. "Olivia changes out of those so Beth can try a few clothe on by her self, I want you both to have different personalities, not the same" Melissa said with a smile and kissed the top of each girls head. Olivia got changed into to clothes and brought out what she wanted to try on or at least a few things she wants Melissa to buy. Beth showed the Melissa and Beth the clothes that she wanted, along with a few basic pieces that Melissa thought that the girls both needed. The two girls and Melissa walked up to the cash register waiting in line. "Mum, can we get a keychain?" Olivia asked picking up on. Melissa looked down at the keychain, pick one each ok, that's it" Melissa explained. The two girls smiled and picked a keychain each.

Melissa place the clothes off the register along with Olivia and Beth placing two key chains up there smiling. The young girl smiled back at them but didn't say anything to them only telling the amount of what Melissa owned. The two girls and Melissa walked out with a bag each in hand. "Ok next bed shopping, now I am thinking a bunk bed because well we need that extra room for this one" Melissa said. The girls laughed all though as they got older and if Beth did stay with Melissa and Chris post-baby been born, they definitely would want separate rooms which meant that Melissa and Chris would need to look for a house in Vancouver, not an apartment, and maybe get a penthouse when they are in New York and rent it out when they are not staying in New York.
