Chapter 7
Even though on the outside Roman appeared calm cool and collected, inside she was nervous and trying not to let her hands start shaking. When they pulled up to the house Roman composed herself and jumped out of the truck and helped unload her bags. She really wanted to run into the house and meet everyone but she didn't want Shawn to struggle with the bags. Besides, she was still nervous because her new uncle was in there along with her step mom.
Before Shawn started up to the house Roman pulled on his arm and handed him a packet of papers in a manila folder. Shawn put down the bags and opened the folder. After reading a few lines he quickly looked up from papers at her and then back down. "You want to adopt me?" Roman said quietly.
It took a few seconds for Shawn to answer but he eventually just pulled out a pen from the truck and signed the adoption papers. He and Roman picked up the bags and started walking up to the house. They had just reached the door when it opened and Paul walked out. "Hi," he said cheerfully. He hugged Roman and took some of the bags from Shawn to help bring them upstairs to her room.
Roman still hadn't seen Rebecca but she wasn't to worried. She was more interested in her room and what she was gonna do with it anyways. Her eyes widened when she saw all the possibilities she could do with her room, but one thing stuck out. "I know what I'm gonna do with my room," she stated.
Paul and Shawn looked over at her and waited for her to say what she was gonna do. "I'm gonna paint everything black," the guys eyes widened when she said that and you could tell Shawn was gonna protest, "then I'm gonna take bright green spray paint and paint the walls." It took them a moment to realize those colors where their D-X colors. All three were startled when they heard a "No," said behind them.
They turned around and saw Rebecca standing in the doorway. "What do you mean no?" Roman said quietly.
"Exactly what I said. No room in my house is going to be painted black and spray painted," Rebecca said confidently.
"Um hun I own this house just to remind you and if she wanted to paint it blood red and neon green I would let her. Besides I just signed adoption papers so she is officially our daughter," Shawn stated. Roman grabbed Paul's hand and dragged him out of the room and shut the door.
"Come on," she said pulling him into the living room and going through her bags until she found her hair dye. "I need to redo my colors and you are getting some too."
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, what do you mean I'm getting some," Paul said, even though he followed her into the bathroom.
Roman smirked and held a bottle up to his face, "I think the color green works for you."
Paul stopped walking and said, "No way in hell are you doing that to my hair."
"Well you can either let me do it now or I could put bright pink hair dye in your shampoo."
"Green it is."
