Hi Guys!!!!!!!! My loyal and faithful readers.... *hugs and chocolates and skittles for alllll* Sorry for making this chapter short and kind of fan girlish. School has driven me to the brink of insanity and my mom problems pushed me off lol. I really want this story to be written well so if this chapter is sucky, just let me know and I'll try to do better next time. I have so many crazy idea's running around in my head right now for this story it's kind of irritating that I don't have the time to write them down. R&R! It's encouragement! And thanks to all of you who have made my story or me a fave, you have no idea how awesome this makes me feel :D I didn't think anyone would like me and now I have reviews and faves and I'm soooooo happy!!!! :D Anywaysie, here it is!

I looked around me for the first time in amazement. It didn't look to different from a town back home. We had landed in Berlin, a bustling city full of people and life. I stopped in my tracks and stared around me as new noises and smells filled my ears and nose. I was startled by a bunch of children running around while their parent's yelled at them, in what I assumed was German, to stop running around a busy area.

I felt a shock of pain run through my heart as I watched them and I gasped at its intensity. Suddenly, I missed my adopted street family so much and I missed my real mother even more. The children's laughter was burning a hole in my heart from all the memories that rushed in. A tear ran down my cheek involuntary and I felt it make its salty path down my face, my skin tingling. I didn't even notice Bill bounce out of the plane and come to stand beside me. He tapped my shoulder in an effort to get me out of my trance. "Lilly" he said, "Ve have get our bags off the plane."

I finally turned and looked at him and I watched his face go from slightly giddy and irritated to confused and worried. I could only imagine what he could see in my eyes, pain, sorrow, and quite possibly anger. I stared at him feeling lost and dazed yet I knew where I was and why. I hated my situation and I wished in that instant that I could go home and forget everyone. I wanted my own filthy little bed and home where there was never enough food and always enough love. I wanted to go back, were everyone listened to the same music and everyone spoke English. I missed my family, my dog and even the rats that we shared our apartment with. I wanted to go home.

I nearly lost my composure right there in the middle of stinking Berlin with one of the hottest guy in Germany watching me.

Tears began to run down my face as I turned and looked franticly for something familiar, panicking because I couldn't see anything familiar and because I couldn't control my composure, something I pride myself on doing. I tried to wipe the tears away but they were pouring down my face so fast that I couldn't wipe them away fast enough. My vision was blurring, I couldn't believe it, I was losing it.

I finally just collapsed and fell onto the street on my knees and cried, my shoulder's shaking with silent sobs and screams of fustration. I felt a pair of arms go around me and Iheard Bill's soft voice trying to calm my stifled sobs. He began to sing softly in my ear, a song I later found was called By Your Side and my tears began to subside ever so slightly. I laid my head on his chest lightly and he put his chin on my head, hugged me gently and sighed, then released me and helped me to stand up. I wiped my eyes as he turned away and went to say thank you but he was gone, running around, picking up bags and shouting excitedly in German. I realized that no one had seen us, because everyone was still on the plane dragging their bags out.

I stood still, trying to wipe my eyes some more then I heard Liz's voice call my name. "Lil! Come get your bag!" I trudged back to the plane, Tom still trying to attack me for getting popcorn in his precious dreads. I grabbed my bag and we all piled into a black SUV and went off to their studio. I found out there was a God because he let me sit next to Gustav instead of Tom, who was still sore about the popcorn in his hair. I turned to look at Bill, who was seated behind me, and smile at him but he was staring out the window quietly, not paying attention to what was going on around him. I turned around and settled in my seat next to Gustav, and stared out the window at the new city that I was going to call home.

TADA!!!! Well? What do you think? :D
