Kisses on her Scars

Surprises

So as George drove through the city my mouth has dropped at least 10 times. This place is beautiful. I was still trying to make sure I wasn't dreaming. I figured out a lot about my new family through our car ride so far. Owen and Matt are twins. They are 18. Then there is Paisley who is 17 like me.  Jamie and George heard about me through the adoption agency website I was on when I was a kid. They saw my profile and looked me up more. They found my Facebook page. They saw all the hate and everything I got.

As I looked out the window I saw them pulling into a house. It was a lot bigger than the one I use to live in. "Well this is where we live." George said. He clicked a button which opened the garage door. They pulled in and got out. Owen and Matt came to my door and helped me out. I followed Paisley as Owen and Matt were following behind me. George and Jamie walked me to my new room and once again my jaw dropped. It was huge! I had a queen size bed, a walk in closet, a balcony overlooking the pool out back, and a huge stand with a mirror.

"This is...my room?" I asked. I turned to look at Jamie. She smiled and nodded. "Do you like it? Matt, Owen and  Paisley decorated it for you." I nodded words not being able to come out. They smiled. "Well we brought your bags. Just come down when your ready ok?" I nodded and they sat my bags on my bed. I walked in and sat on the edge of my bed. They all looked at me for a minute and then Jamie smiled. "George bring Miah her present." I looked up confused. They all walked in and George behind them Paisley handed me a key, and a credit card. "These are yours." I smiled.  Then I looked up at George. In his arms was a adorable puppy. "Oh...my...word. That's mine?" 

They smiled and nodded. He handed it to me. "Her stuffs in the closet." I started crying. "Oh Miah..."  They hugged me one by one and left closing the door behind them. I pulled the puppy's face so her face was looking at mine. "You are adorable!" He barked which made me laugh. I set her down on the ground and walked to my closet. 

Inside was a Large cage, a dog bed, a cute grey collar with paw prints on it, a leash to match, and a combined food and water dish. I looked down and she had followed me. I pet her head and grabbed her food dish. I placed it over by the door in the corner. Then I put her collar on her. I placed her leash on a nail in the wall. Then pulled the cage next to my bed. I placed the dog bed in the cage and smiled at my progress. I decided it was a good time to put my stuff away since I was on a role. I grabbed my boxes and put all my clothes on hangers and hung them in my closet. Then placed my blanket on my bed along with my only stuffed animal. I placed some pictures of me and Jai on my mirror. Then I found the one of my parents and myself before they died. I placed that on the mirror too.

It took me about an hour to place my things all away. I lay on my bed and closed my eyes for a second. Then I felt clawing at my blankets. I opened my eyes and saw my puppy looking up at me. I pulled her up and put her down beside me. She laid there and loved the fact of me petting her. I smiled and started thinking of names. I drew a blank so I gave up for now. I sat up and decided it was time to venture through the house. I got up and walked to my door. I opened it slightly and looked out. Nobody in the hall. I stepped out my puppy came running from behind me so I picked her up to be quiet. She licked my finger and I smiled. I walked down the hall and there was like 6 doors including mine. I opened one, a closet. I walk to the next and it was a bathroom. The next was a guest room. I opened the next one and looked in. It had to be Paisley's room. It had bright walls with a huge mirror that I could see. 

"Miah?" I jumped. I pushed the door a little bit more. She was sitting on her bed with a laptop. "Umm I'm sorry." She shook her head. "No its fine. You ok?" I nodded and turned closing the door behind me. I went down to the next one and once again opened it slightly. I saw a guitar hanging on the wall. I decided to close the door since it was one of the twins rooms. I walked right past the last one because I knew it would be the other twins room. I put the puppy down and she walked beside me. 

I found the stairs and silently walked down them. I got all the way down to the living room and George was watching TV. He turned when my puppy walked by the couch. "Hey Miah. Jamie's making dinner." I smiled and kept walking.  I walked to the next room which was the kitchen. Jamie was sitting on the chair at the table reading. "Hey" I smiled "Hi." "You looking around?" I nodded. I walked through the kitchen which then there was another small hall and the back door. I went down the small hall first. There were only 2 ways one lead to the living room again. I followed the opposite way and ended up in another room like the living room.

It must be a game room because there was games on the shelves along with different controllers. I noticed Owen and Matt was playing a video game. I walked in silently and sat on the couch behind them putting my puppy on my lap. She soon fell asleep and I watched them. They were playing COD. They still haven't noticed me. "Dang you won again." Owen said. He turned around and jumped. He placed his hand over his heart. "Wow you sacred me Miah!" I smiled. Matt turned back. "How long have you been there?" I looked at the clock. "About 5 minutes."

They laughed and shook their heads.  "Did you see your car yet?" Owen said with a smile. I shook my head no. He jumped up and grabbed my hand carefully puling me up. We walked to the garage and walked in. There was at least 6 cars in here. I smiled. "Got your key?" I nodded getting it out of my pocket. I pressed the horn button and one of them went off. I walked over to it and smiled. It was a truck. It was perfect! It was silver and 4 door. I loved it. I got in and sat there. Owen and Matt smiling at my reaction. "Now to get your licence." Matt laughed. I smiled and heard Jamie yell "Guys its time to eat!" We all got up and headed to the kitchen to have dinner.
