We're at the mall, one of my daughters is five and the other one is four... "Claire watch out. No running."

"Dad, I'll get her."

"Catch me if you can Lottie!"

They ran around the whole store playing with each other and having fun until Lottie caught her that is then Lottie and I got some stuff and I didn't even realize that Claire was gone... "Claire? Where are you?"

I was afraid that she had been abducted by someone, I could only take care of one kid so as soon as I found her I decided to give her up for adoption so she went to the best orphanage I knew of...

Claire's POV,
I wake up in some weird place and my dad and Lottie are no where to be found so I start crying and crying until someone random came outside and brought me in and they told me that I was left here because my family probably couldn't take care of me...

"But, but,"

"What?"

"Nothing,"

"Alrighty then good night Claire."

"H-how did you know my name ma'am?"

"You have a necklace with your name on it and also you had a letter with you..."

"Alright." Then the woman took me to a room with a bunch of boys and girls, and said, "This is the section for 4 to 10 year olds... If you are still here around when your 18 we will have to kick you out..."

"Where do I sleep?"

"Here." She pointed to a small bed that has a young boy in it... "But it's taken already?"

"It's called sharing."

"But, ma'am. It's a boy. I'm a girl."

"Sleep on the floor then."

"Your a meanie!"

"Be quiet."

"Bye meanie."

"Bye little brat." Then she left and the other kids actually talked to me....

Charlotte POV,
I was in the car with my dad and Claire until he stopped at an orphanage and dropped Claire off and came back and I said, "Daddy? Why did you take Claire here?"

"She'll be able to have a better life. I mean i can only take care of one kid."

"Are you going to make sure that she'll have a family?"

"No... I won't be allowed to."

"Okay..." Then we drove off and I was looking out the window and watched my best friend basically become an orphan....

"Daddy, that wasn't nice."

"I almost lost her. So this is better Lottie."

"Alright, I get it...."

(Two years later on our birthday.)

"Daddy I miss Claire."

"Honestly, so do I. By the way Happy 7th birthday."

"Thanks...."

"Claire is six now."

(Five years later on their birthday.)

"Daddy she's eleven years old."

"I know Lottie."

Claire POV,

"Happy 11th birthday! You get to move to the 11 to 17 group! Congratulations."

"I'm scared."

"Why?"

"People keep looking at me for some reason."

"It's alright, remember? I'm your friend I'm never leaving yo-" Someone interrupted Macy my best friend and I reaised that someone just adopted her.... And now I'm the only girl in the 11 to 17 group.... And miss meanie grabbed my arm and pulled me into my new group and left and I really was the only girl in a room full of boys and two of the boys walked over to me and helped me up and put me on one of the beds and said, "That is now your bed."

"A-alright. I-I'm Claire, what's your name?"

"John."

"Kevin."

"David."

"Luke."

"George."

"None of your business, but you are cute. How old are you?"

"E-eleven years old. T-today is my birthday."

"Oh, well then happy birthday." The boy that was a little mean to me a while ago started walking closer to me and I moved closer to the wall and tried not to cry.... "Since it's your birthday, I'll tell you my name. It's Scott." Then I handed out my hand to him and said, "H-hi Scott, it's really nice to meet you."

"No, sweetheart. It's a pleasure to meet a little gorgeous thing like you..." He said as he sat down on my new bed... "So, these beds are softer then the beds in there or the floor."

"You used to sleep on the floor?"

"It was either share a bed with a boy or sleep on the floor. Then the boy got adopted and I got the bed to myself."

"Cool. So would you rather sleep on a bed with me or kiss a spider???"

"Who would ever want to kiss a spider."

"Keep in mind you have to do the one you pick."

"I hate spiders, but I'm scared of boys."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know."

"Okay. So? Which do you pick?"

"Who do I have to sleep with?"

"Me." Scott said with a smirk on his face.

"Sleeping with the boy.... There's no way in hell that I will ever kiss a spider."

"Good." Scott said, then grabbed my arm and pulled me and he made me sleep in nothing but a bra and underwear and while I was asleep he pulled them both off and I realised too late to stop him.... The other boys were aging it on saying, "Come on make the little virgin moan." And no one comes in to check on these kids and I was the only girl in this group until I was 17...

When I was 17 and the two new girls were here they threw me aside and raped them then that next day they got adopted by the same person and I was back to being alone with the boys and getting sexually assaulted by all of these boys...

Then Scott got kicked out and so did Kevin, George, Luke, and David.... But John was 17 just like me so yeah and John doesn't rape me we just talk and hang out with each other and said... "Let's make a pack."

"Alright."

"Let's stay friends no matter what happens to either one of us..."

"Alright, and I'm sorry that those guys raped you throughout your whole 11th to 17th group experience...."

"It's fine I guess."
