Thanks for all the reviews.
Sophia's POV
The last few weeks have been an emotional roller coaster as Dr Flynn would say but I wouldn't know as I'm not allowed on rollercoasters. One minute I've been kidnapped and then the next I am home and everything is back to normal. But I still can't get rid of my nightmares. We are going on holidays to Italy tommorrow and I cannot wait. It will be a nice break away from everything and also a break for me away from counseling with Dr Flynn.
Daddy has put a monitor in my room so he or Ana can be with me to wake me up from my nightmares but I feel really bad waking them up every night for the last few days so I have turned the monitor of in my room every night. I just feel so guilty for waking them up every night. But as a result I haven't been getting much sleep. Maybe its a bad idea but I'm just going to have to deal with it. My dad has been questioning me about it but I've told him that I haven't been having them so if he finds out he is going to be really mad at me for keeping secrets from him. He hates when I do that.
Other than my nightmares I have been having a great time. We are moving into our new house in three weeks. And I am so exited about going to Italy and my 8th birthday is coming up soon. My grandparents want me to have a sleepover at their house but my daddy is against the idea because of my nightmares. Even though I am telling him that I don't have them anymore. He is such a worrier. Aunt Mia has been spoiling me and wants to take me on a massive shopping trip.
Ana has been amazing. I love her so much she is really going to be such a good mom to me. She is so much better than Sarah she treats me so much better than she did. I am so exited as today is the day that Ana is officially adopting me. I am currently getting ready for it. I'm just not sure to when I should start calling her mom.
"Sophia sweetpea are you ready." My dad says as he walks into my room.
"Almost Daddy Ana said she would do my hair." I say.
"Okay then go into her then we need to get going."
I run of into my daddy's and Ana's room. Ana does my hair in a nice updo.
"Sophia I think it's time you get your hair trimmed it's getting very long." Ana says to me.
"You should see it when I straighten my curls aunt Mia does it for me all the time when I'm at her house."
"Well we will have to try it out won't we but not right now because I think your dad will blow a casket if we are any longer." Ana says smiling at me.
"Are you exited Ana." I ask.
"Are you kidding me I am ecstatic today is going to be one of the best days of my life." Ana says to me.
"Yes I am really exited to I cannot wait and to make it even better we get to go to italy tomorrow." I say jumping up and down with excitement. When I am with Ana and my dad I feel safe and comfortable. It's such a nice feeling to have and I am going to get the most of it because I know how quickly it can be taken away. I really did get lucky with my dad and Ana.
We head downstairs and daddy is waiting for us. He ensures that I have my cardigan as usual. He never lets me leave the house without a jacket , sweater or cardigan it's so annoying.
We make our way into the car and my daddy decides to drive us. Sawyer and Taylor are following behind us. Ana also has a new CPO called Reynolds. He is nice. I am just glad that I have sawyer though. Sawyer let's me away with little things but I don't think Reynolds would Ana is lucky that she is an adult because she doesn't have to follow security's orders like I do and she won't get into trouble with daddy if she doesn't. And If i don't follow their orders I get into trouble.
When we arrive at the courthouse their is a lot of paparazzi outside but sawyer and Taylor do their best to keep them away and then the next thing I know Reynolds's and another CPO gets out of another SUV it looks like Taylor really did have everything prepared. My dad picks me up and carries me in he hates having my picture on the magazines he allowed a family photo that was taken at the wedding to be published. But that was before the kidnapping.
The paparazzi ask me loads of questions and of course I don't answer.
When we get into the courthouse my grandparents, uncle Elliot, Kate and Mia are all waiting in there even Ana's dad Ray is here. I am just so exited.
We make our way into the courtroom and we all have to stand when the judge comes in. It is pretty quick and when he says the words.
"Congratulations Mrs Grey you are now officially Sophia's mother and congratulations Miss Sophia on getting a new mom." When he said that I hugged Ana and jumped into her arms.
"I love you mom." I said and it just felt right. Ana started tearing up and my daddy just hugged us.
"I love you to Sweetpea."She says through her tears. This is just the best day ever.
Ana's POV
"I love you to mom." I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It is music to my ears. I just couldn't hold back my tears. I love this little girl so much.
"I love you to sweetpea." I say and kiss her forehead. Christian is embracing us all and I can't believe how lucky I am to have such and amazing family.
After we all compose ourselves we head to the restaurant where we are celebrating today. When we arrive Grace pulls me aside.
"Ana I want to thank you so much for the joy you have brought into my son and granddaughters lives. I am so thankful for what you did today. You will be an amazing mother and I am glad Sophia has you. God knows she will need your help when she becomes a teenager because we all know Christian is most likely going to send her to a convent or just surround her with security." Grace says to me and then hugs me.
"Grace thank you for saying that and thank you for raising such and amazing son."
We head back to our table and everyone is ecstatic. It is such a joyful occasion. It just puts everything into perspective. But I have to think how different thing could have been if Sophia had not been returned to us or if she didn't survive but alas she did and now we are sitting around as a family. It really means the world to me. My father is so happy to have a granddaughter and I now I know how felt all those years ago when he officially adopted me. It is an indescribable feeling.
After we finish our meal we return to graces house and we all spend hours talking. I almost forgot about the gift I brought Sophia. So I take her aside so we can have some privacy.
"Sophia I brought this for you to remind you of this day." Sophia opens the little box and inside is a locket. She opens is up and it is one that you are able to put three pictures into it. I put a picture of me a picture of Christian and a family picture of us into the locket.
"Thank you so much mom. Sorry i didn't ask you earlier is it Okay if I call you that." She asks looking worried.
"Sweetpea it is music to my ears each time you call me that it is an honor to be called your mother." I say and then I pick her up and just hug her. I live this little girl so much.
"So this is where my girls are I was about to send Taylor to go find you two." Christian says walking. I know how much this all means to him. He is such a great father and husband.
"Why don't we all head home and have one of our famous movie nights." I say.
"Yes let's do that." Sophia says exitedly. God I love this little girl.
