A Life Changing Journey
By CollegeStar20!
This is a story about how Rachel and Victorie met each other and how Rachel became her mother. It will be in Victorie's and Rachel's POV at times.
Enjoy.
With Mira and Carlia.
Mira and Carlia Miller knew it was wrong to leave their 9 year old sister on a park bench in the middle of the night but they couldn't take their parents being so high and drunk all the time! They went back to that house that night and saw that cops were there and they were taking their parents away for yelling, for having drugs in the house and and domestic violence that shouldn't have happened years ago. The cops told the girls that they will be put in Foster Care because they can't stay in the house alone. Carlia thought about Victorie and wanted to go back to the bench and take her with them.
"Girls please go pack all your stuff and we will bring you to the nicest foster home!" One of the cops says sincerely and they nod going to pack their stuff.
"Was it the best idea to leave Victorie in the cold, she's sick Carlia and I think we should check on her!" Mira says softly annoying with herself and Carlia.
"I'm not liking that we left her there Mira but we had to get her out of the house before mom and dad turned on her!" Carlia stated sternly and Mira sighs.
"What if we never see her again, whatever if some guy was drunk and wanted to rape her, this was a bad idea and now she's all alone!" Mira says close to tears.
Carlia knew it was wrong to do what they did but they needed to keep Victorie safe and if that meant keeping her on the park bench way from the people who were supposed to be their parents then she wasn't going to let Mira's worried comments get her to change her mind and get her sister.
"Stop talking about it and finish packing alright, we need to focus on our life right now and Victorie is no longer apart of it!" Mira slapped her.
"How can you say that Carlia Jasmine! She's are sister and sick on a park bench where anybody can hurt her and all you care about is wanting to live a better life, I wish I never agreed to your plan because your just a bitch that was always jealous of her because you were no longer the baby!" Carlia frowns.
"I'm sorry Mira really I am but don't blame all this on me, you went along with it and now we have to live with the choice of letting her free!" They both hug each other crying for awhile. Then they finish packing the things they need before leaving to go to Foster home.
With Rachel in her POV two days later.
Victorie has been at my side since my parents scared her into thinking she was going to go to a foster home or back on that park bench. The doctor came over and talked with Victorie and it seems that she has a just a bad cold and will need to rest for a few days. I asked what her school was so we could call them and tell them that she won't be in for awhile because we need to figure this whole thing out. Victorie slept peacefully that day.
I'm in my living room when I hear singing coming from my room and I walk to my room and I see Victorie sitting on the ground in tears while singing and I listen.
This line is words you said,
Have all gone to my head
I hear angels sing, in your voice
When you pull me close,
Feelings I've never known
They mean everything,
And leave me no choice.
Light on my heart,
Light on my feet,
Light in your eyes,
I can't even speak
Do you even know,
How you make me weak.
I stare at her surprised that she has this great voice for a 9 year old girl.
I'm a lightweight better be careful what you say
With every word I'm blown away
You're in control of my heart
I'm a lightweight easy to fall easy to break
With every move my whole world shakes
Keep me from falling apart.
She looks so scared as she sings and I stare at her amazed for her to be so strong as she sings and she looks up at me with fear in her eyes.
Make a promise please
You'll always be in reach
Just incase I need
You there when I call (here when I call)
This is all so new
Seems to good to be true
Could this really be
A safe place to fall
Light on my heart,
Light on my feet,
Light in your eyes,
I can't even speak
Do you even know,
How you make me weak
Oh ohhh.
I'm a lightweight better be careful what you say
With every word I'm blown away
You're in control of my heart
I'm a lightweight easy to fall easy to break
With every move my whole world shakes
Keep me from falling apart.
I walk into the room and she gives me a scared and timid look and I give her the hint to keep going! She nods and keeps singing.
Keep me from falling under in your love
It's almost all too much
Handle with care
Say you'll be there
I'm a lightweight better be careful what you say
With every word I'm blown away
You're in control of my heart
I'm a lightweight easy to fall easy to break
With every move my whole world shakes
Keep me from falling apart
Keep me from falling apart
Keep me from falling apart
She finishs the last part of the song and I stare at her feeling a little bit of me in her.
Oh ohhh
Falling apart.
I clap for her softly and she smiles slightly before wiping her tears and stands up. "I'm sorry if I was bugging you!" She mumbled looking down.
"Hey come here, listen your not bugging me at all or my family alright!" She nods and hugs me and I hug her back.
"I wish I never had those kind of parents that treated me badly!" I frown hating that she has to deal with that.
"How about you and I go shopping when your much better and we get anything you want, does that sound good?" Her piercing hazel green eyes widen in shock and she nods sitting on my lap and I smile rubbing her back.
"Thank you for taking care of me Rachel!" I smile at her loving that she's so sweet with me and I tell her that I would do anything for her.
A Month later.
Victorie has been much better since she met Rachel Berry and her family! Rachel took her shopping for new clothes and shoes! She made sure she was happy with things she needed or wanted. Rachel and her parents have been trying to track Victories parents but they found out that her parents were no good and took drugs.
"Victorie can you help Averilyn with the dishes please?" Rachel says from the dinning room doing some school work.
"Do I have to?" Rachel glanced up at her and nods giving her a stern look. Rachel and her family have come to the terms that Victorie wants Rach to her mom but they haven't talked to her about it yet until they agree what's bed. They have been working with a case worker to make sure that Victorie never leaves them.
Victorie calls Rachel mommy or mama and her parents are fine with it and so is Rachel. She calls Crista and Averilyn aunty.
"Yes Victorie I want you to help around here then we can work on your school work that you have been missing on!" They called her school and pulled her out until they figure out what's going to happen and the school work thought it would be best if she did home schooling and they sent over school work.
Victorie frowns hating this and sighs walking over to Averilyn and helps drying the dishes.
"Mama what school work is it tonight?" Victorie asked looking over at Rachel. She smiles at her holding up the book and she sighs.
"Oh come on sweetie Math is fun and your lucky I'm great at math, now get to work!" She nods and finishes up the dishes. Rachel goes to her parents room and knocked on the door. Her dad opens the door and she walks in and Leroy closed the door.
"Mom and dad I need to ask you a very serious question!" Rachel says staring at them with a serious look on her face.
"What is it Rach?" Her mom asked looking at her daughter wondering what she wants.
"I want to adopt Victorie as my own and I know with your word that I became her foster mother but I think I'm ready for more then that!" They are at her surprised.
"Rachel we knew this was coming and we have been talking to the case worker and she agreed with us aswell and we think you should adopt Victorie but were still working on that with Debby and you have been doing with the parent classes and she has been doing home visits and your passing everything!"
She smiles really glad that she was passing with flying colors but she needed for then that. She wanted to be Victorie's mother because she already loved her.
"We know you can be her mother sweetheart but we need to go to court now since we recorded on the progress you've made and we also need to know that Victorie is sure about this aswell, so come talk to us in a couple a days and if you really want this then we will start this whole thing alright?" Her dad says smiling.
"Alright daddy and thank you for letting me be her foster mother!" She hugs them both and walks out of the room and stared at Victorie as she danced with Crista and Averilyn in the kitchen as they danced to the music and she smiles knowing that she was ready to take a huge step in her life.
"Mommy come dance with us!" She smiles hearing that soft voice of her foster child and nods grabbing Victorie's hand and dances with her.
"I wish Rachel would make me her daughter already because I love her so much!" Victorie thought as she danced with her giggling.
Crista and Averilyn stared at Rachel and Victorie and knew that they were already mother and daughter! They just needed to make it offical.
