This chapter is going to be a little short I'm sorry but I hope you like my plans but comment if you don't I can change it. Majority rules. I'm also sorry I haven't posted in forever. I've been really busy but I'll try to be better.

Liv's POV
I had fallen asleep after reading the letters and what everyone said. Lin was with Leslie and Chris was here with me. He is basically my second father. I felt so loved. I can't believe I found these people. I still don't know why they chose to take me in. Everything would have been so much easier if they didn't. But I don't know what I would do without these people honestly. I'd probably be dead right now if they hadn't found me. I feel asleep to Chris singing Dear Theodosia to me. He is so talented. Y'all know that but I have to say it every time he sings.

Dreamland

"Congratulations Olivia Marie Miranda." The judge says and everyone cheers. Oak lifts me on his shoulders after everyone hugs me. Good thing I always wear shorts. Ew dresses without shorts. "I love the sound of that." I say to Lin and he smiles. "Yeah me too." He looks at Oak who isn't really paying attention. "Okay Oak she is still a smol bean. Give me my daughter." Lin says and Oak laughs.

I'm switched from Oak's shoulders to Lin's. "Hey have you been eating. You are incredibly light." He says and I just nod. I haven't been eating very much since the incident awhile ago but they didn't need to know that. Lin knows more than the others do though. He doesn't seem convinced but he brushes it off for the time being. I know it's only for the time.

We all walk out of the courthouse to the theatre with me on Lin's shoulders the entire time. He seriously wouldn't let me down. I didn't really care though.

We made it to the theatre and went straight to the roof for a cookout. I was actually really hungry from everything that has happened. I look around at my family and everyone is so happy. Everyone is smiling and laughing. This is the greatest family anyone could ever ask for. Lin finally puts me down and I run over to Daveed. "Congratulations pip squeak." Daveed says and ruffles my hair. I hug him and hear Lin call me over.

I rush over to Lin and he hugs me. "I love you niñita." He says I smile. "I love you too." I say to him. I still don't call him dad. I feel like I'm betraying my actual dad. But Lin is okay with it. I really do love all of these people.

Reality

"Liv." I hear as I'm pulled from my dream. "Liv. It's time for your meds." I hear someone say and I open my eyes and see Lin sitting next to me. I yawn and nod. I move to sit up and feel the pain in my side. I cringe at the pain from the wound and look at Lin. "I know it hurts. Here take these.They will ease the pain." He says and hands me a tiny cup with some pills and a cup of water. I take the pills and water and he kisses my head. I smile at him and slump back on the bed. He smiles back at me with sympathetic eyes. I hate the pity look but right now from him it's not so bad because I know it's not actually pity. Or at least I hope it's not.

After a few minutes the pain in my side starts to get worse. Not the wound but like someone just kicked me. I squint and hold my side. I look at Lin and he gets up.

He turns around and he looks angry. "Get up you ugly excuse for a human." He yells at me and I jump. "You're useless. Get off your lazy ass and do something." He yells at me again and tears form in my eyes. Why is he doing this? I say to myself and I feel the pain in my side intensify.

I fell tears pouring down my cheeks and I see the fire in his eyes. The kind of fire my mom had. Especially when I was about to be punished. "Get up." I kept hearing but it didn't sound like Lin. I shut my eyes and hold my side. Trying to drown out everything that happened.

"Get up!" I hear and open my eyes. I open my eyes and see my mom standing over me. "Get up and make breakfast before Cade and I have to leave." She says before turning to leave. "And you better not leaving the house today or there will be consequences. Worse than what you've already caused for yourself." She says before walking out of my room.

I look around and see that I'm in my old room in my old clothes on my old mattress. I sit and sob. I sob for what felt like hours.

It was all just a dream.

UNEDITED I was thinking about making a sequel to this book. I could either make a sequel or continue on this book at make more chapters. I definitely want to make another adopted by Hamilton book but with a different cast member. But tell me if you want a sequel or just continue the book or if I should just end it. Let me know soon. Love y'all! ;)
