AN/ I know I should be focusing on my other story but this idea just popped into my head... Sorry.. Things will be a little different, but this is a bit of an AU situation. :) Please read and review? Please.
Chapter One:
I sat in the decent sized office, chewing on my dark purple nails, and listening to the MTV news report.
"Rockstars Gerard Way and Lind-z are adding a new addition to their family. No, not a little brother or sister for one year old Bandit, but a big sister. The couple are rumored to be in the final stages of adopting seventeen year old Hinkly Scott, the sole survivor of the gruesome Christmas Day murders that killed her entire family. The Scott family were visiting Mrs Scott's parents in New York from Austra..." The social worker walks into the room and notices what I am watching. She quickly turns off the large TV and ushers the couple into the room. I know who they are, a few weeks ago I would've jumped at the chance to be adopted by THE Gerard Way from My Chemical Romance and Lind-z from . Now I just feel empty. I don't even bother to look my new 'parents' in the eyes, instead I focus on the smiling baby in Lind-z's arms. Bandit. My new baby sister. Bandit holds out her arms in my direction, squirms and starts to fuss. Wanting to be held by the new addtion to her family. Me. Lind-z looks at me and smiles
"Looks like she wants her big sister?" It's a question. She wants to ask if I'm ok with this situation. Am I ok with this? Well to quote my new 'Dad' I'm not o-efing-kay.. I shurg and take the cooing baby and take her over to the box of second hand toys over in the corner of the office. I hesitate for a second, they are rockstars, would they want their kid playing with used toys? I decide I don't care and sit down on the floor and take out a bunch of toys for the two ofus to play with. Bandit babbles away happily as she smashes two cars agaisnt each other. I already like this kid. Distructive. I absentmindedly zoom a monster truck on the prickly blue carpet whilst listening to my new 'parents' and the social worker discussing me. My mother is, was American so we were visiting her parents here when it happened. My dad's parents died when he was young, leaving him to be raised by my Great Aunt Murial. She is now my only living relative left. Unfortunately, she lives in a nursing home in Perth. She is also 103, blind and going deaf. I will be eighteen in March, and was to be left to fend for myself. The Social worker assigned to my case said it would be a miricle for me to be adopted. Hey, I get it. Most people want young kids, babies, not some kid they will soon need to pay college tuition for. Since I was a "special case", social worker's words, not mine, couples lined the streets of the ophanage wanting to adopt me. They were all screened and tested against my personality, but none of them lasted longer then 24 hours. I have been passed between 16 different foster homes during the past month. Yes it is possible. Then Gerard and Lind-z came along. I've stayed overnight at their apartment three times and now, today, they are offically adopting me. I will be Hinkly Aburgine Lace Way. My parents had a sence of humor. Apparently. Gerard comes and sits on the floor with me. I've been sitting on the floor for an hour. Lind-z has left to change Bandit's nappy. I've been playing with the toy monster truck for an hour. In front of my cool new 'parents'.
"I don't think I can call you Dad and Lind-z Mum..." I say, my voice crackly. I haven't spoken to either of them since they began the adoption process. We didn't need to. They get me, it's nice.
"We wouldn't expect anything other then Gerard and Lind-z, Hinkly." Gerard smiled taking the two cars Bandit was playing with and crashing them together in the same motion. "We want to look after you, but we don't want to take the place of your mom and dad. Just like Bandit won't take the place of your brothers and sister."
"I know." I said quietly. "I really like your music. I got Danger Days for Christmas. They let my keep the stuff that didn't have blood on it." Gerard looks at my as if he is assessing if he should laugh or hug me. He does both. I think this could work out ok. Lind-z comes back with Bandit alseep on one hip.
"You ready to go? Joe loaded your stuff into the trunk." I stood up and she put her arm around me. "I have to warn you though... There are paparazi outside waiting. We can create a diversion and come pick you up from around the back?" She sounds all concerned and motherly, and it is then that I know I can do this. I can be apart of this family. I take a breath and shake my head
"No, let's just face this head on. What's the worse that could happen." It's a statement. Not a question. Right now nothing can hurt me. My new family walk out of the orphanage together and I don't feel so alone.
