Abigail's POV


"Abigail get ready, today is adoption day!" Ms. Brown calls happily. I sigh yet another day no one will want me... all I want is a nice family, and I can't even have that.
"Why should you even go down? No one wants you anyway." This girl named Clara snaps. She is the bully here, she picks on all the kids. I brush my hair and head downstairs where some of the other kids are.
"Abby come play with me!" My best friend, Tyler calls. I smile and run over to him, hugging him tightly .
"Ty do you think I will ever get adopted?" I ask him, leaning back against his shoulder as we watch a family playing with the other kids, but ignoring us. Tyler is seven, while I am five so he has been her longer than me.
" I honestly don't know Ab... I really don't." Ty sighs looking down at me.
"Abigail, Tyler come over here please." Ms. Brown says, from the front. We hop up and Tyler takes my hand leading me over to her.
"Alright you two, this is Michael, Calum, Ashton, and Luke. They want to adopt two kids alright? Why don't y'all talk to them for a bit. " Ms. Brown says, to which we both nod in agreement.  
"Hi my name is Tyler." Tyler states, his arm still protectively over me. 
"Hi bud, and what is your name sweetheart?" The boy, that I think is Ashton asks. 
"I'm Abigail." I whisper, looking down at the ground. 
"What a pretty name, why don't we go sit down and talk for a bit," The red head, Michael maybe? states. We nod and head over to the table type thing. Tyler and I sit on one side while the boys sit on the other. 
"So are you two siblings?" The tall blonde one asks us.
"No, but we are close enough to be." Tyler replies, squeezing my hand to reassure me. 
"Wow okay, tell us about yourselves." The boy that had dark brown hair states, biting his lip.
"Wait which one is which, I confused." I say, my little voice mixing up the words a bit. 
"Aww, you are so cute. I am Michael, my hair always changes color, so that will help you remember me." Michael smiles, but this confused me more.  
"How does your hair change colors? You aren't a chameleon..." I ask and they laugh, causing me to blush.
"Oh that isn't what I meant. I dye my hair a lot, so it is a different color every few weeks." Michael explains, and I nod giggling at my mistake. 
"I am Calum, I am the only brown head so that should be easy." Calum states, he is also really tan. 
"I am Ashton, the shortest of the group, and I always wear a bandanna." The one that has blonde messy hair pushed into a bandanna states, as I nod in reply.
"And I am Luke, I am the tallest and I have a lip ring." Luke says, and I glance at his lips and sure enough he does.
"That is cool." I say, I don't know why I thought that, but I did.
"Now tell us some about you two." Cal states, looking between the two kids.
"Well I have been here for three years. I am seven years old. I love sports. Expecially football (Soccer). Fifa is amazing. Um I'm here because my parents died in a car crash. I love music, I want to learn how to play the guitar. My favorite colors are black and green. My favorite band is probably Blink- 182 or Nirvanna. And yeah I think that is everything." Tyler explains, biting his lip softly to stop from rambling more.
"Dude my favorite band is Blink-182 and Nirvanna too!" Luke exclaims, and we all laugh. 
"Plus we all love fifa, except Ashton but he is learning." Michael says, sending a glare at Ashton who shrugs. 
"What about you Abigail?" Luke asks, giving me a nice, warm, smile. 
"Well I prefer going by Abby, or Ab. I five. I don't talk best. Uh I like Fifa...I been here for few months. I shy. Uh music is amazing...I want to play drums...Nirvanna..is amazing. My fav-o-rite colors are purple and black...yeah." I ramble, trying to keep my words straight, but that didn't work out like planned.
"Why are you here Ab?" Calum asks, and I look down as tears come to my eyes at the memories of the last three years. 
"You want me to tell em Ab?" Tyler whispers, and I nod softly unable to speak.  
"Her so called parents abused her. They did so since she was two. Until three months ago when her neighbors heard her scream and called the police. The police arrested her parents and brought her here. She has only been here three months. Some of the kids here are really mean to everyone and especially pick on her. I beat up on kid because he was hitting her. You don't hit a girl. No matter what." Tyler explains, and I glance up at the boys. They all look shocked, Luke looks like he wants to cry. 
"I am so sorry Abby." Luke breaths out, and that is when I break down. I start crying and I run over to Luke, he wraps me in his arms and holds me close while I cry into his shoulder. 
"Shh it is okay, no one is going to hurt you now. I promise." Luke whispers. I sniffle a bit and look up from his shoulder. He gives me a slight smile and I smile a little at him. 
I glance at Tyler and he is staring at me wide eyed. He has never seen me openly cry into someones shoulder, espically someone I don't really know. 
"Can I stay here?" I ask, and Luke nods holding me close again but turning me so I can see the others, who are all watching us. 
"Tell us about you guys." I say to the boys and they smile at me. I am glad they aren't looking at me like a kicked puppy. 
"Well I am the oldest out of us. I am twenty. Fifa is not my favorite thing but it is okay. I play the drums actually. We are in a band called five seconds of summer but we prefer 5sos. I can also play guitar and saxaphone. Um my favorite color is red. And yeah that is me." Ashton says and I nod, my head resting on Luke's chest. 
"I am eighteen, Fifa is awesome, I play the bass and I sing a bit. Um my favorite color is baby blue and yeah." Calum says. 
"I am nineteen, Fifa is life. I play guitar and I also sing a bit. My favorite color is green. Oh I like to color my hair a lot." Michael says.
