Adopted by O2L

San Jose, California.

Carter's p.o.v

We are back in California. I am doing so much better. We are currently just handing out with all of the people on tour. We are just running around the whole arena. I wrapped my arms around Bradley's waist. I put my head on his shoulder.

"Hello my lovely." Brad said. I kissed his cheek. He turned around, so he was hugging me. "I love you." I said. He kissed me. "I love you too, baby." He said. He picked my up and ran around with me.

"You're simply the best." He said as he put me down. We walked over to where everyone else was. "How does your arm feel?" Austin asked pointing to my wrist brace. "It hurts, but not as much." I said. "Your leg?" Shawn asked. "i have pain medication so it makes my leg numb, so I don't feel pain." I said.

"Your leg brace makes you slightly taller, short stuff." James said. "Shut up!" I said teasing. I stuck my tongue out. "Group picture!" Scooter said. We all huddled up together, and scooter took the picture. Bradley and I are the only short ones.

"Carter, I think your dad's coming tonight." Scooter told me. "I hope he does." I said. We played basketball for a bit, before we got ready for the show.

I am wearing a red skater dress and black high heels. "You look beautiful." Bradley told me. "Thank you." I said kissing him. The show doesn't start for 40 minutes. I walked around singing.

I saw my dad and Lia. Lia looked mad. I went to hug her and she pushed me off. "Don't touch me." she spat. I was taken back. "Carter, I came to tell you I'm not staying for your show. Good luck." Dad said smiling at me.

"What? How come?" I asked him. "Lia wants to go to the movies." Dad said. "Are you kidding me?" I asked him getting angry.

"Carter, calm down." Dad said. "Calm down? Are you fucking serious? You're ditching your daughters performance, to go to the movies with Lia. And you tell me to calm down?" I asked him, hella mad.

"Baby... It's not like th-." I cut him off. "I don't know why you adopted me. If your girlfriend comes before me, why am I still your daughter? You should've left me at the orphanage. And Lia," I said standing in front of her.

"I don't know what I did wrong, or why you're being a bitch again, but it looks like you won. Isn't this what you wanted? Me and Jc fighting because of you? Didn't you want this? Well I hope you're happy." I said before storming off. I walked into my dressing room and slammed the door shut.

I didn't care, I cried my eyes out. i miss my mom and dad so much. I need them, so much. I need them right now. "Babe, let me in, please?" I heard Brad.

I got up and opened the door. I ran into Brad's arms. "Bradley why?" I asked him. "Sh baby. You don't need to preform today, okay?" Bradley told me. "I need too. I want too." I told him. Taylor came in and fixed my makeup.

"Shawn's almost done." Scooter told me. "Thanks." I said smiling. "You don't need to preform." He said. I stood up. "I want too." I said giving him a weak smile.

I put my ear piece in, and waited for Shawn to be done. I then went on stage. "What's good, San Jose?" I spoke into my mic. The crowd cheered.

I saw Kian and Trevor in the crowd and I waved to them. I began to sing 'Impossible'

I remember years ago. Someone told me I should take caution when it comes to love. I did, I did. And you were strong and I was not.

I started to cry as I thought of Jc. I carried on singing.

My illusion, my mistake. I was careless, I forgot. I did. And now when all is done, there is nothing to say. You have gone and so effortlessly.
