She was rainbow bright and colorful
He was the storm before it dark and gray
She was the sun rising quietly into the day
He was the moon shining brightest in the dark
She found all the right colors to paint his blank canvas
He found all the right wo...

"Even when I'm on my own, I know I won't be alone Tattooed on my heart are the words of your favorite song"
Charlotte was not happy. And a not happy Letty resulted in a not happy orphanage. I was to blame for that. The car ride was silent. I could literally hear my heartbeat. I'd never seen her like this, I mean yeah she'd get mad at us because we often did stupid ish but I had never seen her this angry.
Charlotte was fuming when we both stepped into the orphanage and to say that I was scared would be an understatement. I shrug off my jacket and hang it on the coat rack as she quietly proceeds to watch me creepily. I open my mouth to apologize but then holds up her hand and walks into the kitchen.
I quickly follow her knowing this would be hard. One thing that we both have in common is that we are extremely stubborn. I sigh and reach my hand out to take hers but she just simply moves away. I needed to fix this, I don't know what I'd do without her by my side and I know I upset her but there has to be something I could do to make it up. I tug the ends of my hair in frustration and head upstairs.
What did Charlotte like to do? The first and initial response of my brain was Disney movies and then I had it. I grinned to myself as I ran into my room closing the door behind me. I reach deep into my closet pulling out the fluffy blankets I only kept for emergencies. I heard the door to Letty's room close and I knew she was taking a shower. Perfect now I can set my plan up.
You know, you could just apologize and be a good girl but instead you want to watch Disney movies as a 16 year old girl and be antisocial. And you wonder why you don't have a boyfriend.
Oh shut up, when do I ever ask for your opinion? Yet you never fail to put your two senses in. I shoot back at my brain. Honestly, someone better give it the worldwide award for being the dumbest, stupidest, and most annoying thing in the world. I run into the kitchen and pull out two mugs to make some delicious chocolate mug cake.
Fast forward like thirty minutes and the couch was filled with a bunch of cute throw pillows and blankets. The center table had a bunch of Disney movie options and heaven itself (the mug cake.) I sat on my phone for a couple minutes as I waited for her to come down. I scrolled through Instagram trying my best to not stalk Shawn Mendes and failing quite miserably but I mean how could you resist that face?
I hear footsteps and I turn to see Charlotte in her pajamas with tears running down her rosy red cheeks. I run to her and gently walk into her arms. Her arms went around me tight and she kissed my forehead affectionately.
"I feel like I failed you. Why didn't you come to me? I know I can never be your mother but I thought you trusted me. Do you understand how I feel when you don't come home from school and Maddie nor Lilly know where you are. The worst part was getting a call from Kayden telling me you were with him. Why couldn't you be with me? I need you to be safe, you're my everything baby girl. I love you so much. I-I-I want to be the big sister you never got but more than that I want to be someone you know you can come to at any and I mean any time. It was so scary V, I thought I lost you, just like I lost your mother." She cried and cried as she said those words.
