Chapter Five

Lianne walked up to her room. The first door she came to was the young boy's. She peeked inside and saw, to her surprise, the boy sitting in a heap on his bed. She went in and put her hand on his arm, making him start. She quickly withdrew her hand. "Sorry." She said. The boy shook his head and smiled weakly back.

"You don't have anything to be sorry." He was quiet for a minute. He looked away and hesitated. "Does he hate me?" Lianne looked up questioningly. "Abraham. Does he hate me?" The boy asked again.

Lianne shook her head. "He has nothing to hate you for." She smiled, a warm glowing smile that cheered any and everybody up. The boy smiled in spite of himself. "So…" Lianne started. "…We still don't know your name. You turn up in the middle of nowhere…no ID. What's your name?" She asked kindly.

The boy thought carefully for a moment. After a few minutes of thinking he looked at the younger. "I…it sounds weird…I don't know." He finished a bit embarrassed. Lianne smiled.

"That means we can name you." She looked at him carefully studying his features. "You're not that tall. You've got really pretty eyes." She smiled. The boy could feel his face burning. He didn't like her…in that way…but to be complimented, in any form, was rare. She kept pointing out his defined features to his embarrassment. "You look like a Dominic." She declared eventually, when he least expected it. He had about fallen to sleep when she gave a cry and doted upon him, a name. He ended up falling off the bed in alarm.

"Dom…Dominic?" He asked unsure. Lianne nodded vigorously. He thought about it, his eye raised. He heard a small whimper and saw Lianne looking sad. He smiled and pulled her, nervously, into a brotherly hug. "It's a great name." He reassured her, smiling.

Lianne giggled happily and gave him a small hug back. "I knew you'd like it." She smiled jumping up. "I'd better go and tell grandpa that you have a name!" She laughed and skipped cheerfully back out of the room, down to the kitchen.

'Dominic' smiled and watched her go. When she was out of sight his face fell back into a frown. What was his name? Come to think about it…there wasn't much he remembered about himself. He put his head in his hands and tried his hardest to remember something. He was interrupted by the sound of approaching feet.

"I hear you've been given a name." Abraham smiled. "You're officially one of the family now." He sat on Dominic's bed and stared out of the window. "I've been thinking. I would like it if you would call me something a little more personal." He glanced at Dominic whose expression showed confusion. "Of course I understand if you don't want to…but I would like it if you called me…grandfather…" He suggested.

Dominic thought carefully for a moment. "It would give me honour sir…to be considered a family member." He smiled. Abraham smiled at him and pulled him into a hug. "And so it is…grandson…"
