Thank you all for the reviews. Fang is not in this Chap either. It's kind of short, sorry. But, OOO, will Max move in with Dr. Cullen! Let's find out!
Enjoy, ya'll!
Chapter 4 -- Max POV
"I'm not going to force you into anything." Dr. Cullen assured me. "You don't have to live with me if you don't want to."
"It's a great opportunity, though." the officer put in. "He's not offering you a foster home but a permanent home."
"I have two girls, back at home in Forks." Dr. Cullen informed me. "They look to be about your age."
"I'm 15." I told him.
"As are Nudge and Angel, they're twins. (No, I did not change their appearance, the story will explain all this in about ... 2 more chappies.) They would be delighted if you chose to live with us. As would my wife, Esme." (Alright, I confess. I changed Esme's appearance to make her look like Nudge so that it'll work in the story.)
I reflected on what he said. It would be nice to have a social life and not go to an orphanage and have a fresh start so to speak. But, I don't really know him. How do I know what he's telling me is the truth?
Eventually, I came to a conclusion.
"I appreciate your offer, Dr. Cullen. I would absolutely love to live with you and your family in Forks."
A smile broke across Dr. Cullen's face. "Thank you, Max. I know it must be hard for you to move in with a stranger, not knowing what's going to happen, but thank you." he walked off.
"Max," I turned to the offiecer. "Dr. Cullen is a good friend of mine, and I'm 99% sure tha he would never hurt you, but, as I saw today, things aren't always as they seem." He reached into his jacket pocket and withdrew a rectangular peice of paper. "So here's my card. If you ever need me, whether it's to talk or you're hurt, just call."
I took the piece of paper and smiled up at him gratefully.
"Thank you, Officer ..." I trailed off as I realized that he never tol me his name.
"Dale." He answered. "My name's John Dale."
I grinned.
Dr. Cullen walked up to us with papers in his hand. I eyed them questioningly and Dr. Cullen smiled.
"Your adoption papers." He explained. I made an 'ah' face and looke around, not really knowing what to do. All of the sudden , I yawned and I quickly put my hand over my mouth. Dr. Cullen checked his watch.
"Oh! Quarter til' eleven, already? I'm sorry, Max. You must be fatigue." (Fatigue is just a fancy word for tired.)
Well, not that he mentioned it, I was feeling tired. My eyes started to drift close, but I fought to keep them open.
"John, i think I better get Mas to my hotel room before she passes out again." John agreed and the two men shoke hands. Dr. Cullen led me to his black marcedes and put my bag in the backseat, I climbed into the passenger seat and let sleep wash over me.
There ya'll go. Like I said, it's kind of short, but atleast ya'll know that Max is moving in with Dr. Cullen. I'll update again, tomorrow night. Reviews are welcome!
