Today, Mr. Malcolm, Ms. Dorothy and Mr. Edgar are going to the graveyard with Eden.
Seeing as it was the day of the anniversary of her parents death, the young girl wanted to go and see them without the press.
Once the four made it to their graves, Eden gently put the casa lilies on each marker since both of her parents loved the flowers.
"Hey Mom, hey Dad." Eden said sadly, the three teachers watched in sadness as their student talked about everything to her parents.
Eden was sad but soon smiled as she told her mom and dad about what happened during the talk show along with how well school is going.
"She's a bright young girl." Ms. Dorothy chimed in, Eden turned to her teachers. "Want to introduce yourselves?" Eden asked with a smile.
All three teachers did so then they also told the parents about how well behaved Eden is at school, that's she helpful and a very hard worker.
Eden smiled as she watched them since her mom and dad were the ones who had taught her that working hard would open doors for her one day.
However, Eden knew that a dark cloud was coming as she glanced behind her and saw two member's of the towns CPS at the gate watching them.
"They can't take me." Eden muttered, she knew that the CPS was trying to take her to either an orphanage or put her into a foster home which was bad.
It was one of the reasons why Daniel had suggested a boarding school in the first place, so the CPS couldn't get their hands on Eden or else she'd be taken.
The other reason that Eden had agreed to boarding school was so that she wouldn't be taken from Josh and so she could get a break while making new friends.
"Eden, is there a song for your parents?" Mr. Malcolm asked her, Eden snapped her head up. "I know just the one that they would love." Eden replied to him sweetly.
The music Eden had chosen was a for song that she had sang at their funerals since it was the perfect choice even if the song was a sad one, it went well for today.
[Play Wings by Jeff and Casey Lee Williams]
[Eden]
One life,
Is not a long time
When you're waiting,
For a small sign.
Patience,
Is hard to find.
Shadows,
Seem to fill your life.
Don't be disappointed,
Don't let your heart break.
Don't spend another minute,
In this way.
It's okay.
Dry your eyes now, baby;
Broken wings won't hold you down.
You'll take flight soon, baby.
You'll be lifted up,
And you'll be there.
(Music)
Twelve hours,
Is a long night.
When you're searching,
With no hope in sight.
Aimless,
On the inside;
And the damage,
Makes you want to hide.
I know that it seems pointless,
I know that it feels fake.
I know you can't stand the thought of,
Being stray,
One more day.
Dry your eyes now, baby;
Broken wings won't hold you down.
You'll take flight soon, baby.
You'll be lifted up,
And you'll be there.
At the end of the song, Eden and her teachers had tears streaming down their faces. "That was beautiful." Mr. Edgar said as he brushed the tears away, Eden smiled at him as she did the same thing.
"Ms. Winter." A stern voice called out, Eden turned to see Mrs. Cheng right behind her. "I assume you know why Mr. Blue Stone and I are here." Mrs. Cheng stated, Eden frowned but nodded at her.
"Then you know that you must come with us." Mr. Blue Stone told her, Eden nodded and before she could take a step towards them, Mr. Malcolm stopped her. "What are you doing?" Mrs. Cheng asked him.
"I was told that Eden mustn't go anywhere with you." Mr. Malcolm answered, he had to follow Daniel's instructions. "You cannot keep Ms. Winter longer than necessary." Mr. Blue Stone said firmly to Malcolm.
"We we're told to keep Eden safe in our school." Ms. Dorothy told him, she hugged Eden to her closely. "Unless the school is checked out by us then Eden can't stay there." Mrs. Cheng responded with a glare.
Eden didn't want the adults to argue today. "What if you saw the school, would you let me stay?" Eden asked the CPS member's, the paused. "If it passes our inspection." Mrs. Cheng said with thoughtful tone.
So, it was agreed that the teachers had one week to get the school in a state where the CPS could see it in order for Eden to still be a student or else she'd been taken and placed somewhere else until adopted.
Eden however, already had a plan to keep her monster friends from being found out and she hoped that the plan worked because she didn't want to be taken away from everyone, the plan had to work for her sake.
Once back at the school, Mr. Malcolm told everyone what happened the graveyard, so all the students and teachers started to work together to the school clean and ready for the inspection at the end of the week.
New chapter done! I don't own the song in this chapter, I do own the CPS oc's, please review and no flames!
