We make our way out of the restaurant after an hour of sitting and talking, the two people say they need to get going but they were very reluctant in doing so.
"If you don't mind me asking, what are your names?" I ask that's something I should have asked through dinner but it never got brought up in conversation.
"I'm Lukas and this is my wife Melissa" Lukas smiles as Melissa opens up her arms I think for a hug, okay weird.
I smile and walk over accepting the hug, I thought it would feel weird to hug a woman that I've only met twice but in a weird way it didn't. It felt like we already had a bond I don't know where that bond came from but I pull away smiling, Lukas does the same thing as Melissa hugs Ryan, again with him it felt like I had this bond with him from somewh
After a few hours of being in the car we finally arrive at the house we always stay in, every year we go away for a week and stay here. It's gonna be the first time in years that Ryan's gonna be with us and not just as my brother, but also my mate. We pull up all climbing out Ryan and I go to the boot to get our stuff out while mum and dad unlock the door, I try to pick my bag up but Ryan does before I could. "I'll carry it for you come on," he says walking towards the house making me smile and follow him in. He carried them all the way up to my bedroom for me, putting my bag on my bed turning around to face me. "You haven't really changed anything in here," he says looking around my room? I actually
The picnic was amazing, we really got to catch up apparently he'd done a heck of a lot when he was travelling. "So you're telling me the guy just smashed a shop window and walked away like it was nothing," I say shocked, he was telling this story about a guy he came across on his travels, a very drunk guy. "Yeah just randomly, but I have to admit it was quite funny" he laughs remembering what happened making me smile "I never forgot you, you know every day I was wondering what you were doing" he smiles but I look to the floor, I guess since I found out about us being mates I was worried if he just forgot about me and went with other people, I know he isn't like that but when you find out your mate has been travelling around the world, I guess you don't know what to think.
I woke up to someone shaking me a little, I open my eyes to see Ryan smiling looking over at me. "We've arrived but remember we can't stay long, so only pack what you need," he says which makes me look around to see our house in front of us, I was still in a state of sleep so I just nod smiling. He gets out the car running over to the front door quickly unlocking it, I climb out and walk quickly but didn't run like Ryan cause again I was still half asleep and follow him into the house. We both run up the stairs going our separate rooms, I grab two bags that were under my bed starting to pack clothes, makeup and things I just can't bear leaving like photos and keepsakes. At the bottom of my wardrobe was a box that I kept all my old things, things I've had since I was a baby, I pick the box up emptying the whole contents into a bag safely. Onc
We leave the house and start on our way again but this time it was silent in the car, seeing Gabbie just made me realise what's actually happening. My parents have been taken or maybe killed and I can't even go back to see them, my life is about to change so much and the person that I trust so much, I can't even tell. Ryan stops the car and starts texting on his phone while I continued to stare out the window. "My friends are letting us stay at their place for a while" he says finally putting his phone away starting the car once more. "Do they know what's happened?" I ask finally looking over at him for the first time this whole car ride. "I told them a few things but not all, don't worry we can trust them, I was actually
I was helping Martha sort dinner, while Ryan and Harry were messing with something in the garden, I was chopping the vegetables while having a conversation with Martha. "That's when I told him he just needed to get over it, I mean it's just a car," she says stirring the food that's cooking on the hob, she told me it's her mum's famous recipe. "I never get why people are so obsessed with their cars either," I say shaking my head, Ryan's the same he won't even let me put my feet on his 'baby' of a car. "Ryan told us about your parents," she says looking at me with sad eyes, I don't know how that got brought into this conversation but oh. "I feel like I'm letting them down, they adopted me, gave me an a
"Yasmin where are you?" A women's voice asks close to where I was sitting, but looking down at myself I wasn't me, I was a little girl "I'm gonna find you, Yasmin," the women's voice says again is she talking to me? A few seconds pass before the doors open to the cupboard I was in, a woman standing smiling. "I found you" she laughs picking me up spinning me around giggling leaving my mouth "Daddy said he wants to see you before he leaves" she smiles walking me down a huge hall towards huge double doors, once they open I see two men talking at the end of the room, they looked very smartly dressed. "Yasmin" one of the men say kneeling down as the woman places me on the floor so I could run over, once I reach his arms he pick
I get off Harry's lap as Reece pulls out a huge pile of documents setting them down on the table. "This is the adoption papers from every adoption around here," he says, pulling a few more out which was a lot. "How did you get all these?" I ask looking at how big the pile was, it doesn't look like he works for anyone down in the government to give him this. "You tell me what you need I give it to you, none of us asks questions," he says looking at me in the eye, which makes me look down standing behind where Harry was sitting, he freaked me out. "Now I'll leave you two to it, I'll get us a coffee," he says patting me on the shoulder before walking out the room closing the door behind him, once I hear
We pull up at the house, Ryan running down the steps and towards the car, as soon I'm out the door I'm wrapped tightly in his arms. I look up to see Martha walking out the house with her arms crossed. "I told you they'd be fine, even if it was a stupid idea," she says mainly looking towards Harry, who slowly got out the car looking annoyed himself. "Get off my back women, I decided to go out, get over it," he says storming straight passed her and into the house, she looked shocked for a second but that soon turns to anger. "Harry!" She shouts running after him leaving Ryan and I outside, who still wasn't releasing me from the tight hug. "I was so worried, I woke up to find you not there, I thou
