Chapter 7

Later on in the day at lunch…

"Hey Sara!" Greg called when he saw Sara walk into the lunch room. When Sara heard Greg call her name she turned around and saw him waving at her.

"Hey Sara, glad you could make it," Greg said.

"Ummm…yea." Sara said not sure what she should say.

"So hey you going to come to the first football game this Friday?"

"I don't know, it depends on what I'm doing."

"Oh, ok well if you do go, you could always come with me."

"Thanks but I think my brother and my brother's friend Warrick are playing so I just might ride with them to the game, if its ok with my parents."

"Yea, ok well maybe I'll see you at the game."

"Yea, maybe. Hey what do you have next class?"

"I have IT class next, what about you?"

"That's what I have next."

"Cool, so want to walk together since we have that next?"

"Sure, I don't care."

About 15 minutes later the lunch bell rang indicating that lunch is now over and to go back to study hall until it was time for 6th period.

"Well I guess its time for study hall again,"

"Yeah."

The rest of the day flew by quick after school just like Sara promised Nick that she would meet him by the office. While she was waiting for her brother she saw Grissom coming out of the office, and she walked up to him.

"Hey Grissom." Sara said as she approached him.

"Oh hey Sara, I didn't see you there."

"Yeah, I'm just waiting for my brother, he told me to meet him by the office."

"Well do you want me to stay and keep you company until your brother gets here?" Grissom asked hoping she would say yes.

"Yeah, sure that would be fine." Sara said as she was getting excited, as she felt butterflies in her stomach.

"no problem, so are you doing anything this weekend?" Grissom asked looking for something to talk about.

"Yea, umm…Friday I'm going to watch my brother play football Friday night, I told him I would go and watch him and his friend Warrick play."

"That's cool."

"Yea, hey would you like to go? I don't really know anyone to hangout with and I told Greg I would meet him there if you want to meet us there if you want?"

"Sure I'll meet you guys there only if you don't mind."

"no I don't mind really."

"Okay, if you say so I guess I'll be there Friday night."

"Hey, do you have like messenger? That way we could talk if we don't see each other at school and what not."

"Yea its buggrissom at yahoo dot com" Grissom said as he wrote it down on a piece of paper for her. (a/n: I couldn't really put it n email form so hope you guys can read these.)

"Thanks, here's mine, its butterflysidle at yahoo dot com," Sara said as she tore a piece of paper and did the same, then she handed it to him.

"no problem, and thank you for your email." Grissom said as he stuck it in his pocket so he doesn't lose it.

A few minutes later Sara saw her brother coming down the hallway towards the office.

"Well hey I'll see you later my brother's on his way over here and I guess I'll talk to you later." Sara said before she walked towards her brother.

"Okay, well talk to you later then," Grissom said as he walked outside and got in the car.

Sara walked up to Nick when he got a bit closer to the office.

"Hey Nicky," Sara said as she approached him.

"Hey Sar' how was your first day?" Nicky asked her.

"It's ok I guess, I just want to get home to see if mom and dad signed the adoption papers, 'cause I think I still want to keep my last name the more I think about it, no offence or anything…I'm glad I'm getting adopted I just want to keep my last name."

"Hey its ok, I'm sure mom and dad would have no problem with that, come on lets go see if mom or dad is here yet if not hopefully Mark will be picking us up." Nick said as he and Sara walked outside to see who would be picking them up.

A couple minutes later Mrs. Stokes picked up her kids, "Hey guys," Mrs. Stokes said as she watched her kids climb into the vehicle.

"Hey mom," They both said.

A few minutes of silence Sara spoke up and asked her mom about the adoption papers, "Hey mom, I have a question."

"What's that sweetheart?" Mrs. Stokes asked her daughter.

"Ummm…about the adoption papers, I was wondering if I could still keep my last name, if not then that's fine, but I was just wondering if I could keep my last name?"

"Yeah, sure thing hun, you can keep your last name if you feel like you want to keep it, its not a problem, we haven't signed the papers yet because she's coming over at 6 o'clock tonight."

"Oh, okay, thanks for letting me keep my last name, and also thanks for adopting me."

"Hey, its not a problem, and your welcome, like we told you plenty of times that your part of this family no matter what."

"Yeah, I know, sometimes it doesn't feel like it, but I know guys care about me really I do, but sometimes it doesn't feel like its real."

"Well, hun it is real, and your going to be officially adopted tonight after we sign the papers."

"Yea, I'm excited about that."

The rest of the ride home was silent and they were all thinking how grateful that their adopting Sara tonight after the papers are signed.
