The orphanage has always been Emily's home. Besides the few times she's been in a foster home, she's been there since she was two years old.

It's been two weeks since Michael and I dyed our hair. On different times during those two weeks, we would hang out in small groups; Luke and Sierra, Ashton, KayKay, and the twins, and Michael and Crystal. I finally decided I'm comfortable enough with them all that we could hang out with them in a big group now.
So that's exactly what's happening. Half of them are in the kitchen, eating and talking, and the rest are in the living room.
I wash my hands and leave the bathroom, walking into the living room, where Autumn and Summer are playing on the PS4, with Ashton and Luke watching. Calum sits, smiling at his phone.
"Hey, Cal." I smile, sitting next to him. "What are you so smiley about?"
"Nothing." He shakes his head. I roll my eyes and rest my head on his shoulder, watching the twins play Mario Cart.
Calum's been hiding something recently and it's getting on my nerves.
I laugh lightly as Summer suddenly turns and falls off the track, cursing at the tv. I feel Calum chuckle underneath me as his fingers type away at the screen. My eyes widen and I gasp as I read the contact name. I snatch the phone from him.
"Do you have a girlfriend?" I ask. He ignores me and tries to snatch the phone back. I extend my arm out of his reach and place my other hand on his chest and holding him back. "Who's 'babe-heart-eyes?'" I ask, a smirk pulling at my lips.
"No one." He retorts, finally grabbing his phone back.
"Is she nice?"
"Yes."
"What's her name?" I badger. He sighs and looks at me.
"Marissa." He admits.
"Ooh, Cal's got a girlfriend!" I shout. His eyes widen and he pulls me into him, covering my mouth with his hand. I let out a muffled squeal-laugh-thing as everyone piles into the living room.
"What's this I hear about a girlfriend?" KayKay's eyebrows raise. I groan and grab Calum's hand, yanking it off of my mouth.
"Marissa." I state. Calum rolls his eyes at me and I frown, realizing I've annoyed him.
"Why didn't you tell me about her?" I ask quietly. He sighs.
"I didn't know how you'd react."
"As long as she's nice I'm cool with it." I tell him. He smiles at me before ruffling my hair.
"So... When do I get to meet her?" I ask. His eyebrow raises.
"Uh, I don't know. I'll have to ask her when she's free." He shrugs
