I drove into the town of Forks. It was very dull, cold, and wet. That was something that did not often happen in Arizona. I loved the sun. it bleached my natural blond hair. The reason I went to forks was because my mum got re-married. To Fred Crawly. He seemed alright for a step father. He wasn't good with children. He never had any of his own. I pulled up outside the house. I looked nice enough it wasn't as nice as the one back home but it was decent. As I got out of my car mum came running out of the door. She flew into my arms and gave me a tight hug.
"Beth, darling its good too see you!" she beamed
"Good to see you too mom." I replied. Mom had the same blond hair and blue eyes. Except mine were a darker blue. I looked up at the top of the steps and there stood Fred. I smiled and he just nodded. I went in to the house.
Later I was starting to see what Fred was really like. Just after dinner mum when out to her friends house. She asked me to go with her but she said I would be the only teenager there and I didn't fancy sitting in a room with forty odds. Drinking coffee and gossiping. So I stayed at home with Fred. He seemed nice at first, he was asking about my interests and if I wanted anything particular for my room. But suddenly he came sat next to me on the sofa. He grabbed hold of my arms and threw me down and lay on top of me. He started touching my breasts and putting his hand up my skirt.
"Don't u tell you mom." he commanded. "she'll disown you and call you a slut which you are."
"No she wont." I gasped
"If you tell her I will kill her, I will kill both of you." he threatened. I knew he meant it. But just to make she he slapped me.
