Adopted by Why Don't We

It had been a couple days since I was in the hospital. At the moment I was trying to go to sleep but everything in my small little body was pushing me downstairs to where the boys and a couple girls were. Christina was there along with two new people I met, Gabbie and Tatum. They seemed nice!
I was tiptoeing down the stairs when I heard Jack say something about me.
JA~ Marlee hasn't been taking her medicine, I saw the liquid in her garbage can today. I was putting her to bed, helping her brush her teeth, and I saw.
I ran in the room and all eyes rested on me.
M~ I dwid not take dem! Day awe icky!
CB~ what are you doing up missy?
I shrugged, even though I just couldn't sleep because I had a nightmare. Jonah walked towards me and scrunched down to my size.
JM~ Mar, it's really late babygirl. You are going to be pretty tired tomorrow.
I shook my head, how did he know I'd be tired?!
M~ NO!
JM~ hey! No yelling, we talked about this!
I hung my head.
M~ I'm sowey...
I mumbled and sat on the floor, leaning against the couch. My eyes started to droop shut. I felt Jonah pick me up and pull me to his chest. When he sighed I felt his chest go up and down, I snuggled my head into him when he did that. He sat next to Tate and covered my head with a blanket. I drifted off, Tate was laying next to me on the couch. Jonah was stroking both of our backs. I liked her and Gabbie, they would become my friends just like Christina!

Next morning
I woke in my bed with Zach laying next to me.
M~ Zachyyyyyyyy! Wakey wakey!
Z~ hm? Oh. I'm up, I'm up!
He rose and pulled me into a hug, kissing my head.
Z~ the boys and I need to talk to you about something sweetheart. Will you come down with us?
I nodded.
M~ am I in twouble?
Z~ no, no! It's just- will you come down so we can talk?
M~ suwe
I shrugged and grabbed my blankey and Zach lifted me up. He walked downstairs, then sat in the living room.
D~ morning Marlee!
M~ mowningggg
I said morning to everyone else, then looked at them each to see who would talk first.
M~ sooooo?
JA~ well... Mar, we know you haven't taken your medicine...
CB~ I know it's icky princess, but if you don't take it you'll get more boo-boos!
M~ no! I won't take it! No way!
D~ Marlee Elizabeth!
JM~ what if we put it in a drink and you drink it?
I shook my head
M~ it taste like... hmm... it taste like puke!
Z~ Mar Mar, babe, it might taste bad but if you don't take it you'll feel bad!
I started crying. I really didn't want to take it.
JA~ ohhh. Don't cry!
M~ b-but it's ick!
JM~ Marlee Elizabeth, you need to take it.
M~ NO!
CB~ hey, hey, hey, no yelling!
M~ stwap trying too get me too take it!
Zach bended down text to me and wrapped me in a hug.
Z~ Mar, what if I take it with you?
M~ weally?
He nodded, I wrapped my arms around his neck.
Z~ alrighty, let's take it.
We both got however much I was supposed to have, and on the count of three, sucked it down. Zach's face was hilarious! He gagged and his eyes watered! Just like me! HAHAHA!
D~ I got that all on video!
* ring. Ring. Ring! *
M~ phone!
C~ it's the police. Jonah?
Who were these police people? Why did Jo have to talk to them?

I was getting ready for my nap with Dani, Jonah was still on the phone! He was talking about that mean logan guy... uh oh!
