Ok, I lied. I do now I felt. It was disgusted and horrified. What, I walked in on was a naked Dave on the couch. My dad's truck wasn't even here, so I just decided to leave. I went back down to the beach, even though it's really cold it still was very peaceful to go there.

I went down there and I saw Quil and some other guy arguing very intensely. Me, being the curious, dumb one had to go down there and check it out.

Quil was very livid and shaking bad. Maybe he was cold? It makes sense because he doesn't have a shirt on.

When I got into hearing range I heard Quil yell, "He was my friend to Embry! We all loved him, you can't just give up on your brothers, and we need you."

Embry just shook his head," I can't help what I feel Quil, maybe I'm handling it the wrong way but it helps, so just back off," he yelled that last part and shoved Quil. That's when I yelled," Hey Quil!" He turned to look at me, his face full of pain, sadness, and anger. "Are you okay?"

"What are you doing here," he asked me.

"Stopping a fight from two boys who clearly love each other, like brothers," I added quickly, knowing how sensitive they can be about this stuff. "Now are you okay," I asked hopefully for the last time.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"What about you friend over there? He looks like he's in shock." Quil looked over at him and studied his face for a second. Understanding and excitement lit up on Quil's face as he shoved Embry and yelled," Whoo!" I smiled a confused smile at that.

Embry only looked at Quil for a second, then back at me, then at Quil and mouthed something. Quil shook his head.

"Well, Lucy, we'll see you in school tomorrow," Quil said still excited about whatever was going on with Embry.

"Um, okay. Embry are you okay?" I thought it would be nice to ask. He only nodded, like he could speak. "Okay, bye guys."

I turned around and just started walking around town because I was bored and there was not a whole lot of stuff. There was once grocery store and one gas station and some other little stores. I decided to walk back to the house, but if my dad's truck isn't there then I'm definitely not going in.

When I walked around the corner I saw that it was there and I sighed in relief. As I walked up to the house I still walked very cautiously even though my dad's truck was there. I walked in and saw my dad in the chair, Dave no where in sight.

My dad looked up, smiled, and said," I have a surprise for you."

I didn't get too excited because you never know with my dad, but I still put a smile on my face. "Oh really," I said," What is it?"

"Well, I know this is a big change for you, so maybe we could go shopping and go out to eat in the city?"

"Is Dave going?"

"No, it'd be just you and me."

Wow, I can't believe he's actually going to let me do this. I walked over to him and gave him a huge hug. "Thanks dad. This really means a lot to me."

He had a twinkle in his eyes, but still shrugged his shoulders and said like he didn't care, "it's really no big deal."

I just smiled and said," So, when are we going?"

This time he smiled. "Now," he said with enthusiasm.

We walked out to the truck and got in. I have to tell him about incident with Dave, I really don't want that to happen again, but before I could speak he spoke. "So, how was school," he asked me.

I answered very quickly. "Oh, it was very easy dad, there like a month behind us. I probably won't have any homework for the rest of the year." He gave me a look. "Ok, maybe just a little bit," I said with a laugh. "The kids there were really nice. Especially this girl named Kim."

"That's good Lucy," he said sincerely. "I'm glad you're adjusting well."

"Yeah, me too," I said my thoughts drifting to another subject that I really need to bring up. "Dad, I kind of have a problem with Dave," his face automatically got hard. "Wait, just let me explain. I know he's giving us a place to stay, but I came home from school and he was on the couch," it took some effort to get that last word out," naked."

He got real quiet and his face started to go red. I didn't speak. I really don't know what to do. My dad is always so protective when it comes to guys.

"Did he talk to you," he asked, his voice strained.

"No, he only laid there and I walked out as fast as I walked in," and he scarred me for the rest of my life.

He took a few moments again till he spoke. "I will have a talk with him." I just nodded my head. The ride there wasn't really awkward; it just felt strained with small talk. He told me he got a job today at some fishing store. "So, that means we might have our own house here pretty soon," he said with a promising look in his eye. That has to be the best ting that has happened all day. I just smiled.

We went shopping. I like getting new clothes just not buying them and going through the whole process. Dad didn't whine through the entire shopping experience. I only got a few pairs of jeans and t-shirts and sneakers. I only had flip-flops with me.

He then took me out to eat at a really nice restaurant. He wouldn't even let me look at the prices. It was going great until he ordered some shots. I still don't know why I feel so disappointed when he drinks, you'd think I'd be used to it by now. Of course I had to drive home and I recently got my permit which is a big plus for him. I wonder if I should talk to him about how I feel. I've tried before and it ended up with both of us in tears him promising he would change. It has only gotten worse since that night. I just wish I could let my barrier down and just talk to someone, anyone.

Well, there it is. I don't know how I feel about this one. But the next one might take me a while longer, because there's gong to be some action/drama coming up into it and that stuff is harder to write for me but I promise I will try and update soon!
