I proceeded out of the courthouse with a humongous smile on my face. I look at my gene donator and flipped her the finger.
"Sheilah stop." Esme hit my hand.
"Sorry." I chuckled. "I'm freeeeeeeee!!!!!!" I yelled running, jumping and twirling in the air. I don't have restraints anymore. I have love and support from a family that actually cares about me.
I reached the car and hopped in. My family followed closely.
"Kid calm down or I'm going to start bouncing off the walls too." Jasper smiled.
"Don't be bitter Jazz. I'm in a good mood don't kill it with your bad vibes." I laughed and nudged him.
"No promises." He smiled again.
"Well Sheilah."
"Yessum Alice?"
"Your going to the guest room on the third floor."
"I can't thank you guys enough for everything. I never thought I could be blessed with having such nice people as family."
"We love you Sheilah." Esme grinned as she pulled onto the road.
"I love you guys too."
"Emmett and Edward will finish your room in.... 30 seconds. I already knew how you wanted it." She smiled.
"Thank you Alice." I laughed leaned back. I don't have to be so tense anymore. I can just live and be happy.Alice pulled up to the house and I jumped out before the car even stopped. Which resulted with me landing on my face. I rolled over laughing thinking of how this was a repeat performance.
"Sheilah!" They all rushed to me.
"I'm good, I'm a klutz." I laughed and stood to my feet.
"Be careful okay? Does it hurt anywhere?"
"Nah, I'm good. I've done this before." I smiled scrunching my nose. "Can I see my room?"
Everyone started to walk into the house. It smelt of cinnamon and... Paint fumes?
My nose crinkled at the odd smell.
"Don't worry, it'll wear off." Edward smiled as we walked up the stairs.
He swung my door open and let me in.
This is all I have ever dreamed off.... Black and white walls with paint neon paint splatters. Band posters littered the walls, along with Youtubers.
My bed was pushed the right side wall in the far corner. It was a double and a black night stand with a lamp was next to it. I had a balcony I ran up to it and looked outside.
"Yours connects to mine." Edward laughed. "I'm right next door."
"Hopefully you like my music." I laughed and walked back in. There's two doors on the left corner, they were adjacent of each other.
I swung one open and inside was a medium bathroom.
"Wow." I exhaled as I shut the door. I opened up the second one and inside was a full walk in closet. Inside it was filled with all black and band merchandise.
"I would have never expected Alice to allow those kinds of clothes." Edward chuckled as he walked inside.
"I'm emo, I won't wear anything else." I laughed and shut the door. I engulfed my older brother in a tight hug. He wrapped his cold and lean arms around me hugging me back.
"I'm so grateful to have you guys." I muttered into his chest.
"As we are to you."
"Thanks Eddie." I smirked.
"Don't call me that." He laughed, but said sternly at the same time.
"Fineee." I smiled and let go.
"We have much to discuss." Carlisle walked into my room.
"Alright, thank you so much for the room, and just everything. It means so much to me."
"Of course." He smiled warmly. "You are family now. Now come." He led us down the stairs into the living room.
Everyone was sitting on the couches with smiles.
"Take a seat." Rosalie smiled. "We would like to ask you questions."
"Alright." I sat down on the recliner criss-cross-apple-sauce style.
"Fire away." I smiled.
"Favorite color?"
"Black and purple."
"Favorite food?"
"Anything you put in front of me." I smiled. They all laughed.
"Top 3 Movies?"
"The Nightmare Before Christmas, Finding Nemo, and Mean Girls."
"Favorite kind of music?"
"Emo... I guess? Dashes of metal here and there. Pop music is disgusting."
"Favorite band?"
"My Chemical Romance."
"Favorite song?"
"I can't pick that."
"Have you ever had a boyfriend?"
"Mentally or real?"
"...?"
"Okay, real. No. Mentally. Yes. I'm a fangirl."
"Okay...? Who are they?"
"Gerard Way, Andy Biersack, Vic Fuentes, Kellin Quinn, Alex Garksath, Chris Cerulli, Oliver Sykes, Dan Howell, Phil Lester, Felix Kejlburg, Anthony Padillida, Kyle David Hall, Johnnie Gilbert, Jeffery Woods, and the list continues...."
"Alrighty then..." Emmett trailed off.
"ANYWAYS!" I smiled.
"So, why did you want to run away from home?"
And Esme dropped the bomb. My mood instantly changed as I looked at the floor. The memories started to flood my mind like a hurricane.
"I-- uh--" said with a shaky breath. "Are you sure you want to hear it?"
"Are you sure you want to tell it? We can wait." She said kindly.
"It's probably better to get it out." I kept looking at the floor. "I was unwanted, but my sister wasn't. I really was the mistake, they called me a bastard child because of my skin color. Each of my parents are pale and my mom has red hair and green eyes and my dad has brown hair and brown eyes. My sister came out looking like my mom and know one knows where I got my genes. No one has a trace of African history in their genes. Turns out my mom cheated as revenge with a man that didn't know she was married and she got pregnant with me because she's a complete and utter idiot. My father has never looked me in the eye before... I wanted to meet my biological dad because he said that he would take care of me and that he'd love me no matter what, but my parents wouldn't allow it. I've always wondered... Why would they care? They never took care of me. I was basically like Matilda, but without the cool powers. Now my biological dad probably forgot about me, my parents wouldn't let me go to his wedding." I chuckled remembering the argument, but my face twisted as I remembered what happened to me next. "And I'm not going to either of them, my biological mom and step dad are insane and I don't know where my dad is or what he's doing..."
"Wow..." Rosalie trailed off.
"I'm sorry." Alice muttered.
"It's okay, theirs people out there who have it worse. I'm just happy I survived and now I'm with you guys so nothing can hurt me now."
"But still..." Emmett muttered.
"Your safe here now." Carlisle smiled.
"Okay, no more depressing stuff. Let's do something fun." I smiled.
"Shopping!" Alice jumped up.
"Where?" I asked.
"Online!"
I jumped up too. "LETS DO IT!" I yelled and we, at human speed, ran to the computer.I'm really gonna love this new life <3
HEY GUYS!
//Oh my lord I had massive fangirl problems back then....
