14 year old Bailey Rae was placed in an orphanage at the age of 5, when youtuber and music artist, ksi, comes looking for a new addition to the sidemen family, bailey seems like the perfect match. but what will the new chapter bring?
after a while, i felt myself being shaken awake by jj
"we're home bailey"
i looked out the window and my jaw dropped to the floor, this house is massive! harry, tobi and jj all laughed at my reaction, i on the other hand, felt overwhelmed by it all and i kept silent. they all lead me to the front door and we all walked in, it was so spacious but i still felt claustrophobic, i followed them around the downstairs and then upstairs, they showed me around the rooms, there was boxes everywhere and it was evident they had moved here recently. they then showed me the next floor up which was where my bedroom was, it was so nice and so much more hokey then the orphanage bedroom. it had a dark blue theme and it was quite big, it had an en-suite bathroom aswell!

i didn't deserve any of this, did i? tears of happiness pricked my eyes and my first instinct was to hug jj, i completely regretted it after, i quickly pulled away but jj pulled me back into the hug, i hesitantly hugged him back. his hugs were nice and his figure made me feel safe. i felt loved. something i hadn't felt in a while.
---------------------------- two hours later ----------------------------
jj, harry and tobi left me to settle in, it all felt odd. a few hours ago i was being shouted at by agnes and cora and now im in a new home with new people. after a few minutes of taking everything in, i heard a knock at the door, tobi walked in and sat down next to me on my bed.
"how're you doin?" he asked
"good thanks, just taking it all in i guess" i replied
"thats normal, if you need anything dont be scared to ask one of us, we're all a big family now. anyway jj asked me to come get you to meet the others, you dont have to today but at some point your gonna have to meet the rest of your family. if you don't feel ready to, thats fine, just tell one of us and we'll explain to the others, their all so excited to meet you!" he said
"nah, id like to meet them" i started, "ive seen your videos and you all seem so nice" i blushed at the last part, i didn't want him to think i was some crazy fan
"thats great! come down when you're ready, they won't be here for another 10 minutes anyway" he smiled and walked out the door, closing it behind him. wow, he understood privacy and manners. i walked downstairs (after nearly getting lost) and walked into the living room where jj and the other two were sat. jj patted the spot next to him and i cautiously walked over to him, i felt shy and i didn't want to disappoint him infront of his friends. what if they didn't like me? what if they tell jj to take me back to the orphanage? my mind went blurry and the boys' voices muffled, my breathing quickened and jj was quick to notice. he told harry to go get a glass of water and tobi to get some tissues whilst he held me in his arms. why did i have to have a panic attack now? they probably think im a freak. he handed me the glass of water and it clattered against my teeth, he dabbed my eyes dry and pulled me into another hug
"you okay?" jj asked
i nodded, not trusting my voice to crack
"nervous about meeting the others?" he continued
i nodded again
"there's no need to worry" his tone was calm and gentle "they all want to meet you so bad"
"w-what if they don't like me?" i mumbled
"of course they'll like you, your so loveable" jj chuckled
his laugh made me smile and i leant back into the sofa, waiting for the others to come. as if on que, they walked through the door, laughing about something, they flopped onto the sofa and they greeted eachother
"this is bailey, everyone"
i smiled but i didn't like the spotlight on me, jj squeezed my shoulders as if to say its okay and it relaxed me a bit. everyone got up to hug me and welcome me into the family, it was all chilled and im happy they treated me as if id been here for ages, they asked me about myself and i told them about me liking football and supporting chelsea (which harry cheered at), i told them i wasn't very academic which they all said they were the same, i left out about my past, i didnt trust them enough just yet. although i told them i have social anxiety and may fall into depressive episodes easily. they understood and said they wouldnt force me to do anything I didn't want to they all agreed to take me shopping for football equipment and enroll me into a football club, they said i also need more clothes and that they were going to spoil me rotten, which i politely declined but they kept on insisting so i had to give in
