The Advance

"Uncle Steve!" I said as I ran into the arms of my favorite uncle. My mom had left that morning and brought him back with her along with his six year old son Austin.

"Hey there girlie, look how grown you are," he said as he hugged me.

I smiled, "Thanks but unfortunately I'm still below the big 18..."

"Awe don't worry, you've only got a year to go….hey Mark, how's it going?" he asked when Mark came out onto the porch.

He smiled, "Hey Steve…what are you doing here?"

"Oh yea I didn't tell you, Karen is my sister." he told Mark, who's face lit up.

"What? Well that's good. Who is this little man?" He then asked, noticing Austin who was hiding behind my uncle's leg.

"This is my son, Austin…hey Austin, I thought you said you liked the Undertaker?" he asked him.

Austin peeked out and looked up into Mark's eyes. "Are you really the Undertaker?"

"You bet your bottom dollar that I am." Mark answered. "Ask your cousin if you don't believe me."

Austin smiled and ran over to me, "Is he really the Undertaker?"

I smiled and pulled him up on my lap, "Yes he is,"

"Cool, and you get to live with him?" he asked.

I nodded and he turned and looked at Mark, "Can I visit?"

He laughed, "Of course you can, after all I think Serena will make a good babysitter."

Austin smiled, "Yay! Come on Rena, let's go up to your room and play." he said as he hopped off my lap and pulled me towards the front door.

"Austin, slow down," I said as we walked into the house.

I heard the adults laughing as we made our way into the house. I really loved having Austin around, he was like a little brother I never had. He was over at the house for a few hours before Steve decided to leave. Before he left, he asked me if I could babysit on the days he was busy with wrestling. Of course I agreed and that excited Austin.

"We are gonna have a lot of fun big cousin," he said before hugging me.

"Yes we are, but you have to promise me that you'll be a good boy for me Ok?"

He nodded and then kissed me on my cheek.

"Awe," everyone said.

I smiled and watched as he ran and jumped into Steve's arms. "Tell everyone bye,"

Austin waved to everyone before they walked out of the house.

"You're really great with kids sweetie," my mom told me.

I smiled, "Thanks, I think I get it from you honestly,"

She smiled and hugged me, "Thanks honey. Come on inside, I need to tell you and Mark something anyway."

I nodded and followed her inside wondering just what she had to say. I had to be honest I was nervous about what it was but I didn't let on to it. I sat down on a chair while she sat next to Mark on the sofa. He was glaring at me before I sat down but I just ignored it.

"Is this something bad?" I asked.

She smiled, "No not at all sweetie."

"Oh alright then," I said calming myself down.

She sighed, "I have to leave town next week."

My jaw dropped, "For what?"

"Yea I would like to know that as well," Mark asked.

"There is a nurse convention next week and the top twenty nurses in this state were selected to go. I was number eight, so...I'm going."

I smiled, "Well congrats, for being selected. I always knew you were a great nurse."

She smiled at me, "Thank you darling."

Mark sighed, "How long are you going to be gone?"

"Just for a week, I should be back the Monday after I leave." she answered.

"Oh I don't know about being alone with your daughter…she might kill me in my sleep." he said.

I gasped, "Hey! I would never do that!"

They laughed together and then my mom slapped Mark's arm. "Leave my daughter alone before she really does kill you."

"Yea punk," I said as I got up to go to the kitchen.

He laughed, "You would say that as you're leaving the room…"

"Yep because I know you're not going to do anything about it anyways." I joked as I got a glass of water.

"Don't forget…you are stuck in this house with me for an entire week…don't push your luck." he said.

I rolled my eyes and then drank my water.

"Mark, if you hurt my child you'll have me to deal with. So hush." my mom said.

He chuckled, "Oh please, I'll beat you down right along with her."

I laughed and began heading up to my room, "Sure you would Mark…sure you would."

When I got up to my room I pulled out my diary and sat down on my bed so I could write some more. I had to admit, I was a little nervous about being in the house alone with Mark. I was slowly starting to see him as a father figure and now my mother tells me that I'm going to be trapped in this house alone with him…awesome. I didn't know how this was all going to work out, but I sure hoped that I would remain sane.

Later that night I while I was sleeping, I thought I had heard my door open. I was too scared to look so, I remained in my bed with my eyes closed. I heard the door shut quietly before hearing the lock click. My heart was pounding fast but I still laid there hoping this was a dream. Suddenly, I felt something move at the foot of my bed. I wanted to look and see what it was but I was frozen in fear. I then felt a warm pair of hands running up my legs. I wanted to scream but instead I simply relaxed. I was then turned over onto my back and my night dress was pushed up to my hips. I kept my eyes closed trying hard to pretend to be sleep…but he knew better.

"I know you're awake Serena…open those pretty eyes for me." Mark said.

I gasped and opened my eyes looking up into his green eyes. "W-what are you doing in here?" I asked.

He smiled, "It's my house so…I'll go wherever I please…"

"I understand that but…why are you in here?"

He shrugged, "I don't know, I couldn't get you out of my mind…and I know you've been thinking about me just as much."

I laughed, "This again? How many times do I have to tell you that-"

My voice was cut off when his lips came crashing down against mine. I wanted to push him off but he was way too strong and…a very great kisser.

"Mark stop!" I said once I was able to pull free. "If you don't I'll scream at the top of my lungs."

He laughed, "Go ahead, all of my walls are sound proof."

I felt my heart drop, I didn't want this even though it was part of my fantasies. "Mark please, I don't see you that way Ok? You are my mom's fiancé,"

He cocked an eyebrow, "So you're saying that if I wasn't her fiancé…you would let me fuck you?"

"No! Not at all…I'm too young and a virgin so…I don't want this." I said.

He licked his lips and then bent down and kissed my cheek, "Don't worry…I'll get what I want one way or another. You forget that I've got you for an entire week next week,"

"Nothing will happen then, just like nothing will happen now." I snapped.

"ooo, I like it when you're fiesty….and I see you're very wet." he said as he reached down between my legs and touched my panty covered clit.

I quickly closed my legs at his touch, "Get out of here!"

He chuckled, "Alright muffin…but remember I will get what I want. Just wait."

A silent tear fell from my eye as he climbed out of my bed and left the room. Once he was gone, I got up and locked my door. I then returned to my bed and cried myself to sleep. My feelings were so confused at this point…I had no idea what was going to happen next week.
