Chapter 2: A Chance Meeting
Davis's P.O.V-November 23rd, 2014
-Dream Sequence-
I was walking around school, when I bumped into a man.
"S-Sorry sir" I said. He turned and looked at me. He had a friendly smile. Than it hit me
"Dad?" I said. He smile fadedand turned into a frown. "Im not your Dad! You don't have a Dad who wants you back! There's a reason your where you are today!" The man said.
Everything faded to black.
-End Dream Sequence-
I woke up and jolted off my bed. I looked around. I looked at the clock.
"3:23" I said to myself. Im officialy 9. I layed back and tried to go back asleep.
-At the Davenport mansion-
Davenports P.O.V
I woke up around 3:00 in the morning and walked downstairs. Once I got there, I found Adam watching tv.
"Adam? What are you doing up?" I asked. He turned and looked at me. "Couldn't sleep. So im watching some cartoons" He said. That was pretty typical. As I walked past him he caught my attention.
"Today's a big day" Adam said. I looked bakc at him. "Yeah. New York. It's a great city, you guys will love it." I said. I knew there was another reason but I don't want to talk about it.
"Yes...and today's a certain someones birthday" Adam said. That's why I didn't want to think about today too much.
"I know. I was kind of hoping I'd forget" I said. I know it sounded a little harsh, but it's just too sad to remember.
"I'd never forget. I always like to remember today" Adam said. I guess he was right.
"Yeah. But today always reminds me of one of my biggest mistakes." I said. It really did remind me of one of my biggest mistakes. The mistake wasn't exactly today, but it reminded me of it.
"It was. But you've always said one day everything will get better." He said. "Adam Im not so sure about that." I said. I really don't want to get my hopes up, so I go upstairs and go back to sleep.
-New York, Mrs Rooney's-
Davis's P.O.V
I was finally able to fall back asleep. When I woke up, I found my younger 3 year old sister.
"Wake up Davis!" She yelled. I sat up, half annoyed, half entertained. "Im up" I said. She gestured for me to follow her downstairs. So I did.
Once I got downstairs, I found a whole set up of bacong, eggs, waffles, and toast!
"Whoah! This looks really good" I said. "Well it is your birthday after all!" Mrs Rooney said. I laughed a little. She always made my birthdays a big deal, which I don't mind but still...
We all sat around the table eating. It made me so happy. Every now and then or alot of times, I get these feelings of happiness. Atleast I have a wonderful foster family!
-3 hours later-
I was laying on my bed playing on my phone, when Mrs Rooney came in.
"Hey. We're getting ready to go to the convention. Are you ready?" She asked me.
"I guess so." I said. I can't wait to be surrounded by tons and tons of people judging my every move. Apparenty Mrs Rooney read my mind or something. "Don't worry. You'll be fine" She said. I just nodded and walked over to my closet. I got changed into some more comfotable clothes and grabbed a hoodie.
By the time Mrs Rooney got everyone ready, we left. Mrs Rooney drove a big van. You know those fancy vans with wifi and heated seat and all that. Well that's what she owned. We all piled in and left.I rode shot-gun since A, Im the oldest there. And B, Im the only one who doesn't need a carseat.
Davenport's P.O.V
We were just about to pull up to the convention. Adam Bree Chase and Leo were getting a little restless. Adam kept kicking the back of Chase's seat. Bree kept bringing Leo until these conversations about boyfriends and stuff. I couldn't stop thinking about today. Tasha noticed and ut her hand on my shoulder. I told what happened when we got married, so if it ever comes back, she'll know whats going on.
We pulled up to the convention, and all got out.
"Can I go meet up with Ethan?" Bree asked. Ethan was her current crush.
"Yeah, just make sure you meet us back at the food court at 3:00" I said.
"Can I go to the science seminars?" Chase asked. "Ok you guys can go to whatever you want, just be back by 3:00" I said.
I walked over to the speaker desk getting ready to present. Here goes.
Davis's P.O.V
We got to the convention and I was ready to go home. We all walked through the front doors and was greeted by policemen. They checked Mrs Rooney for her tickets. Once they cleared we started walking around and found a certain spot to wait.
We sat there waiting for the inventor himself. I liked his technology, but I wasn't that big of a fan of Donald Davenport.
"I got to go to the bathroom" I said. Mrs Rooney nodded and I left. While I was walking, I began to notice how I was walking. I thought people would judge me because of it. As I tried to adjust my walking, I ran into a guy.
"Im so sorry!" I said. He turned and looked at me. He looked similar to the guy in my dream.
"Where's your mother? Shouldn't she be keeping an eye on you?!" The mans aid a little angrily. I just got nervous and walked off, quite quickly if you ask me. People started to look at me.
"What's wrong with that boy?" A lady asked. "Is he lost?" someone else asked. I wihs I could be invisible. I walked into the cosest bathroom and was greeted by a whole bunch of high schoolers. They were laughing until they noticed me.
"Is that kid alright?" One asked. I noticed I was a little in tears. They all just walked out and i crouched down against the wall and curled up into a ball. I just need to be alone and calm myself down. Which usually takes like 15-20 minutes. If Im lucky.
suddenly I felt someones hand on my shoulder. I looked up and saw a boy who looked like a teenager with spikey hair.
Chase's P.O.V
I was on my way to the science seminar, when I noticed this little boy running around. He looked almost terrified. Not gonna lie, I felt bad for him. I followe dhim to se eif he was lost or something. Once I did he ran into the bathroom. A minute later, some high school guys came out talking about that boy.
"Hey do you guys know that kid?" I asked. They just looked at me. "No. But he's crying. He looks like a little 6 or 7 year old." One kid said. I walked into the bathroom and found him curled up into a ball.
I put my hadn on his shoulder and he looked up. His face was red and he had tear stains on his face.
"Whats wrong? Are you lost?" I asked. He just sniffled and shook his head. He looked miserable. "Do you need help finding your parents or something?" I asked again. He just cried even more.
"It's ok. Im Chase. Here I'll help you find your parents." I siad. He just looked up.
"I-I don't have parents" He said. "Oh, sorry. Are you a foster kid?" I asked. He just nodded and I helped him up.
The boy looked 7. "So how old are you?" I asked. I know it was a random question, but something seemed...weird about this kid.
"9" He said. So he's short for his age. "Oh." I said. "I-Im short for my age." he said. Two things we have in common. "So am I" I said. I know to him I probably look like a giant.
"So who's here with you?" I asked. "My foster mom. Mrs Rooney" he said. I nodded and helped him find this Mrs Rooney.
"So whats your name?" I asked. "Davis" He said. That rang a bell. "Oh I had a younger brother named Davis" I said. He looked at me. "Really? What happened?" He asked.
"We had to give him up because we couldn't support him. I remember the day he was born and I held him. It was weird kind of, like you know your holding life, like your holding someone you want to protect and care for. Im sorry I don't know where that came from" I said.
He nodded. "I was put up for adoption when I was 2. I got adopted by a family and then they returned me." He said. That literally ticked me the right off! (Probably outdated term, but I used it sometimes)
"Why? You seem like such a good kid" I said. I had my arm around his shoulder, so he would calm down a little.
"Yeah. but im nothign more than a loser." He said. It made me a little mad. "What? Im sure your not. you just never really had a fighting chance." I said. He just sniffled a little more.
"That's what that family told me." He said. It really made me mad. I've seen movies about kids like that, but never in reality.
"Well they're wrong. i've only just met you and i already know your a great kid." I said. He nodded. "Thanks"
While we were walking we passed Dad. He approached us. "Chase who's this?" He asked. As he looked at Davis he got a look of...well...like he knew who the kid was.
"This is Davis" I said. His eyes widened.
Donald's P.O.V
I finished my meeting and found Chase walking around with some kid. That kid actually looked familiar. "Chase who's this?" I asked. "This is Davis" He said. No. It couldn't be. Right?
I had to get more information on him. "Umm great. Hey Davis, do you want a special tour?" I asked. He kind of hid behind Chase. "He get's really shy. I found him in the bathroom crying." Chase said. I nodded and knelt down in front of him.
"Don't worry. It'll be a private tour. I just need to find your parents and tell them" I said. That was the first part of getting informaiton.
"I don't have parents. I live at a foster home." He said. Ok Im starting to feel a little more hopeful about this.
"Oh, well lets find your care taker." I said. We walked over to find this woman who had 5 other kids. "Davis!" She said. "Hey. I had...a moment" He said. She calmed down and looked like she understood. "Oh. well thank you Mr Davenport for finding him" She said to me.
"It's no problem really" I said. The lady looked familiar. Was this Karen Rooney?
"Umm by any chance, are you Karen Rooney?" I asked. She nodded. "Yes I am." She said, hope is rising.
"Great, I've heard of your work and It's an honor to meet you" I said. She looked happy about that. "Oh well thank you. Im actually here to purchase a new computer. I have one, but wiht 6 kids, you need atleast 2" She said. I nodded at that. Made sense.
"Great. I'll be by later to drop it off. And as a thank you for all your hard work. I'll give you a special one." I said. She smiled even wider. "Thank you. Thats so kind of you!" She said. I figured I could research when I get home.
"Great. I'll see you all soon!" I said. Davis walked over to Karen. "Bye Davis" I said. He waved and thye walked off.
"Do you think that could've been..?" Chase asked.
"Im 89.4% sure of it." I said.
Karen's P.O.V
That was a little weird running into Donald Davenport like that, but hey! We're getting a free computer out of it! We arrived at home. Davis walked up to his room. I hated it when he had a moment. The poor thing can't even talk when he's like that. It was weird how he let the boy in. I guess Davis's attachment issues took over. Ever since Luke moved out and my husband died. He's been seeking attachment. He needs a father or an older brother or sister.
I was cleaning dishes before dinner when the doorbell rang.
"OH! New computerrrr" I sang. When I opened the door, Donald Davenport and what Im assuming was his wife (from the pictures I've seen on magazines) was standing there.
"Hi can I help you? I asked. He didn't have the computer or anything so I just figured they needed to do a survey or something.
"Yes. Actually Um, Im here about Davis" He said. Davis what would he want to do wiht Davis?
"Davis? What about Davis?" I asked.
"Im his biological father" He said.
My eyes widened...
How was that. I hope you enjoyed it! I can't wait for you all to see this! Enjoy!
