Taylor's POV

' Never mind, Jack. I'll buy it myself ' I said to one of my guards before heading out of the car. I walked into the mini mart and a girl was there, stunned to see me. I just smiled, and started searching for a diet coke. After seeing it, I put it on the counter. The girl eyed me warily, holding her breath.

' Are you alright? What's your name? ' I asked politely and smiled. She was not scanning my diet coke.

' Deep breath ' I said, and so she did. But she still wasn't moving or even saying anything. I chuckled a little to her reaction since I've dealt with this a lot of times. 

' How old are you? ' I asked.

' Fifteen ' she answered. Her shaking hands picked up my diet coke, scanned it and passed it to me. I didn't take it as I was recalling my childhood memories. Nobody is supposed to work at 15, isn't that child endangerment?

' Would you like to come with me to my studio? ' the words slipped out of my mouth before I could stop it. 

' Definitely ' she answered then went around the cashier counter to hug me. She was so beautiful. She got a blond hair and a pair of piercing blue eyes just like mine. It was scary to look at her because it was like reflecting a young me. I hugged her back and wiped her tears.

' Don't you have any family to tell ? ' I asked. Her expression completely changed. She looked down, her long bangs covering her face. 

' I- I- I'm sorry ' I apologized. She was not answering anything. 

' It's fine it'll only be for a while. I'll tell the manager you're off duty ' I said without thinking and grabbed her hand. I brought her to my car then opened the door for her. My guards were shocked that an anonymous girl was following us but I told them it was fine. We were only going to my studio, not to Africa.

' You're not mute, right? ' I asked her as we sat down, facing each other. 

' No ' she finally replied. 

' Tell me your name. I have just kidnapped you but I don't even know who you are ' I said. She took a deep breath then told me, ' Tenessa Bridget James ' .

' What should I call you? ' I asked. 

' Tessa ' she answered shortly. The awkwardness really got to go, I sighed. 

' Okay then , Tessa. I know this might be personal but you gotta answer this, will you? ' I questioned, then held out my little finger so that she would promise to answer. She nodded curtly then held my finger with hers. 

' Do you have any family? ' I asked, being careful with my words. In case it would hurt her feelings. 

' Do I really have to tell you everything? ' 

' Well of course, I might get arrested for bringing you hear without your parents' consent ' I replied, feeling a little bit annoyed.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath then started explaining, ' I don't have a family. I live in an orphanage. My family died in a car crash ' she said, avoiding my gaze.  

' Oh My God. I have to take you back! This is already illegal of me to just drag you here ', I exclaimed.

' No! I don't actually live in an orphanage. I ran away, because I was about to get adopted. Don't send me back, please Taylor ' her eyes gleamed with tears as she begged.

' Adoption is not a bad thing, Tessa ' I said.

' You are so mean! ' she pushed past me and I quickly grabbed her hand before she went further.

' Listen! I am going to adopt you ' I, myself, was shocked when I said that.

She stopped trying to get away then stared into my boring blue eyes.

' You're not kidding, right? ' her words were barely heard.

' I'm not. I will adopt you. I'm serious ' I assured her.

' Promise? ' she asked. Tears started rolling down her cheeks. 

I nodded then kissed her forehead. I would do anything to fight for her custody.

' Come on in ' I said to Tessa. She kept standing in front of my door, staring around. I groaned then grabbed her hands to drag her inside. 

' I'm in Taylor Swift's apartment ' she said that over and over a bunch of times. ' Yes you are. Now, do you wanna go and have a tour of my house or let's just eat? ' I asked, my stomach grumbling. 

' I can have a tour of this house? Oh My God. It's okay you can eat first ' she answered then went out of my sight in the blink of an eye. She was probably very excited.

Tessa's POV

I was having a tour around her apartment when Olivia came and attacked me. I screamed as she hugged my leg and wouldn't let it go. 

' What happened? ' Taylor rushed in and talked with her full mouth. I giggled at her appearance.

' Look at her.. ' I said and pointed to Olivia, Taylor's very famous cat. 

' Oh...Come on dibbles ' Taylor commanded and she finally let go of my leg.

' You called her what? ' I asked, wanting to be sure. 

' I called her dibbles I know it doesn't make sense but - ' Taylor didn't get to finish her words as I laughed so hard on the floor. I knew that she was smiling while looking at me.

' It doesn't make sense. Not a single percent. Why Dibbles? ' I said, as I forced myself to stand back up. ' Come on out and eat your burger ' Taylor passed me my burger and I grabbed it.

' Taylor do you just lay around and watch Law and Order all the time ' I whined then rolled my eyes. 

' It's fun! I'm sorry if you're bored ' she turned off the television. 

' Hey I never meant to stop you from watching! ' I quickly said but it wass too late. She faced me on the sofa and I gave her my what look.  

' Let's go shopping... ' Taylor suggested and raised her eyebrows. 

' What's with that look? ' she asked. I was lost in my dreamland.

Okay, deep breath, Tessa. Taylor Swift is adopting you, and now she's taking you shopping. Just say okay and everything will be. Taylor swayed her hands in front of my face, trying to get my attention. ' Okay ' I blurted out the word. She smiled then went inside her room, probably to get changed.
