Chapter 1

I walked up to the door, and took a deep breath. I had decided to adopt a little girl. I wanted children, but being famous it was nearly impossible to find someone who didn't want to be with me for the fame or money. So I decided to adopt, and be a single parent. I walked up to the front desk.

"Hello." the lady said. Her name tag read Sylvia. She looked to be about in her seventies. "How can I help you today?"

"I'd like to adopt a little girl." I said smiling.

"How little?" she asked.

"Probably about three or four.", I said.

She nodded. "We only have two girls in that age range. One is three and the other is four. Their names are Bella and Kelsi. Which one would you like?" she sat two pictures down in front of me. They had names on to tell who was who. I looked at Kelsi. She was four. She had brown eyes, and brown hair. She was cute, but then I looked at Bella. I felt my heart melt. She had blonde hair, and bright blue eyes, and a big smile on her face. This was the girl for me.

"I'll take Bella." I said.

Sylvia smiled at me. "This is so wonderful. She's been here since she was two weeks old. She deserves a good family."

I smiled. Sylvia called Bella down to the lobby. She took Bella's hand, and walked over to me.

"Bella, I'd like you to meet Mr. Lynch. He's going to be your daddy." she said. I smiled at the little girl. I knelt down, so I could look her in the eyes.

"Hi there, sweetie." I said, smiling.

"Hi." she said shyly.

"Are you ready to go?" I asked her. She nodded, and lifted up her arms. I chuckled, and picked her up, spinning her around. She laughed in delight.

"Let's go."she said. I thanked Sylvia and we left. I buckled her in her car seat, and headed towards home.

When we got to the house I started to feel the butterflies in my stomach. I hadn't told anyone I was going to adopt a child, except Rocky. I texted Rocky.

Ri- Come out to my car

Ro- Y?

Ri- Just do it! I need to talk to you.

Ro- One minute

A minute later Rocky walked out. I glanced at Bella in the back. The little angel had fallen asleep, in her car-seat. We had stopped at McDonald's on the way home, and she was completely covered in hot fudge sauce. I chuckled that was gonna be fun to get out of her hair. Rocky knocked on the window, startling me from my thoughts. I opened the door, and got out, being sure not to close the door all the way so I could hear Bella.

"So what's up bro?" he asked.

"Do you remember that conversation we had the other day?" I asked, getting nervous already. What if everyone hated her? What if she didn't like us?

"Daddy!" I heard her scared voice call, sleepily. I opened the back seat door in the blink of an eye.

"What is it baby girl?" I asked.

"I couldn't see you anymore." she said. I unbuckled her, and picked her up.

"I'm right here, sweetheart." I said soothingly. She cuddled into the crook of my neck. "I have someone I want you to meet." I said softly. She lifted her head up.

"Bella I want you to meet your Uncle Rocky." I said. Rocky smiled at me, and I smiled back.

"Hi." he said, looking at my little girl. She smiled shyly

"Hi."

"She's adorable Rike. Everyone's gonna love her. Especially Delly." Rocky said smiling. "What's that she's covered in though?"

I chuckled. "We stopped at McDonald's and she asked for a hot fudge sundae, and I just couldn't tell her no."

"Already got you wrapped around her finger." Rocky said shaking his head, smiling. I smiled, it might be true, but I didn't care she was daddy's little princess.

"I should give her a bath before I put her in bed.", I said.

"Everyone else is out for the night." Rocky said. "You can introduce her tomorrow."

Bath time was as much bath time for me as it was for her. In the end I don't know who was wetter me or her. I toweled her off, and put her in one of my t-shirts to sleep in. We would have to get her some clothes tomorrow. I decided to have her sleep in my bed tonight, so that nobody would be startled by her in the morning.
