Chapter 5 Your adopted parents are DEAD!

I wake up to an unfamiliar voice telling me to get up but then I realize it's just Damien I pull the covers over my head and groan "Go away!" Damien crosses his arms and looks at me with a stern face that sends shivers up my spine "Get up, I'm not going to baby you, I also have stuff to do" was this really the guy who comforted me and made me laugh " Fine, I'll get up" "Breakfast is on the table, theres bacon eggs and waffles, hurry up before I eat them all!" "I'm coming!" I yell jumping out of bed.

When I walk out of the Hotel with Damien I see a white 2014 Honda Accord "Is that your car?" I ask Damien shocked "Yep!" Damien says enthusiastically " If you don't close your mouth a fly is gonna land in it" "REALLY, out if everything you have to say you just had to say the nastiest one!" That earns a chuckle from Damien "Alright, any longer and you'll be late to school, I have errands to run so I will pick you up at 3:15 so be ready." "Okay" I reply happily.

The drive to school is quiet for about 5 minutes before I say something "Hey Damien" "Is something on your mind Adeline?" "Yeah actually, I never really thanked you properly for.... taking me in, that house was-" "Let me stop you right there Adeline, I may be a bad person but that doesn't mean I don't have any empathy, point is you don't have to thank me, just take care of yourself and be good. Okay?" I smile at Damien although he can't see me staring at him with a big smile on my face I'm sure he can feel it.

As soon as I stepped into the school court yard I can feel everyone's eyes land on me. Thankfully Damien went out last night anf bought me some makeup to cover up my bruises, Although I still don't how he got the right concealer. All of a sudden Sahra is running towards me and then she hugs me "Hey, what's wrong?" I asked Sahra looked at me with a serious but sad face. "You don't know!? Your adopted parent's DIED!"
