Catherine

I excitedly packed my bag, getting ready to go to my new home when I felt someone small hugging me from my back. I craned my neck and found small little Anabelle who I have been fond of since she first came here.

"Big sister Catherine, are you really leaving?" I gave a small smile when I realised how much I would miss this place and gave a small nod. "Then take this and never forget me!"

I took a little small creamy pink button from her tiny hands. She gave me a wide grin showing one missing teeth and took out another creamy pink button. I hugged her and thanked her, tears streaming down my face.

"Catherine please be quick! Don't keep your new family waiting!" I nodded to Mrs Barley and hugged her as well. She muttered something about missing me and walked off. I grabbed my bag and ran out.

I saw Margret waving and I waved back while making my way towards her car. As I got into the car, I saw everyone waving goodbye and some were crying. I waved back and gave small smile as the car started to move.

This is the start of my new beginning.

"Catherine, wake up!" I got up sleepily and rubbed my eyes. "Where am I?"

"You are at your new home." New... Home? Oh yes, new home! I have a home now, with a family! I jumped out of the car excitedly. The house was a giant mansion and I stared at it, awestruck.

There was a giant garden surrounding the mansion and a road leading from the twenty foot tall gate, which then circles a fountain which had clear sparkling water, so clear that you can see your reflection in it and leading back outside.

We walked into the mansion and a butler bowed and offered to take my bag. The insides of the mansion was as huge, with fancy things inside. I never thought I would be so lucky! I jumped around in joy but stopped after seeing Mrs Williams amused smile. I sheepishly smiled, "Um... Nice house?"

"David! Dylan! Come down here!" She yelled. I winced, covering my ears. For such a small woman, she really can shout. Two people ran downstairs, one older and one who looked around my age and they were both good looking. "Welcome the new addition to the family!"

"I'm Catherine Amy Therese..." I smiled shyly. The older one stepped forward and held up his giant, calloused hand, "I'm David Williams and this little guy is my son, Dylan!"

"Hey I'm not little!" Dylan protested as I shook Mr Williams hand. He just chuckled and Mrs Williams laughed, "Well, welcome to my family!"

Family... I like that word. I smiled, for once belonging somewhere...

Authors notes: I'm sorry that this chapter is very short... But now is my exams D: (exams you suck!) I will try to put a fun fact evey chapter but no promises!

Fun fact: Catherine's name was suppose to be Melanie Emerald White (MEW, me and my cat related stuff X3) I changed it because I like Catherine more and I get to call her Cat :D
