Thanks for the reviews. Hope you guys enjoy!

Riley's POV

"Are you going to read the letter?" Lucas asks after I calmed down a little.

"I don't know. Do you think I should?" I ask and look up at him, looking at him like he has all the answers.

"That's up to you. But I think you should, it will give you all your answers and help you move on from this."

I look at him and smile. I open the letter and start to read the letter out loud.

Dear Riley,

I know are mad and upset and confused. I just want you to know you did nothing wrong. This happened because I was selfish and was only thinking of myself. I didn't think it would go as far as it did. I only planned on him being there for two weeks. You have to believe me when I say, I didn't want any of this to happen, especially that one night. Seeing my little girl like that hurt me and knowing I had a part in it killed me. I knew he was doing it to, but I didn't see it happen, so I didn't want to believe it was happening. I thought that if he came and did it one time like I did, it would be over.

Having you hate me is one of the worst feelings I've ever felt. I remember when you were a little girl and always wanted to be by my side and I know now that you probably don't want anything to do with me. I did the only thing that made sense to me and that was to leave. My family hated me.

I'm so sorry Riley. I know you probably wanted to hear this in person but I couldn't face you, knowing what I had did to you and let happen to you. I hope one day you will be able to forgive me and move past this. Don't let what happen to you shut people out. Your mom had nothing to do with this she said she would let Adam do everything to her but he didn't want her he wanted you. And I was so selfish and didn't want to go to jail so I said ok. I love you, don't you EVER forget that. I want you to be "Smiley Riley" again, promise me you will be that girl again sometime soon. I love you.

-Love, dad.

"Are you ok?" He ask, while rubbing my back and wiping my tears.

"Ya. I'm sorry I keep crying on you and coming to you with everything." I say wiping my face and get up to start out the door.

"No, your not leaving. I don't care that you come to me or let me see you cry. I rather see you like this then not at all. I love you, ok?" He says and kisses my cheek.

"I was hoping you didn't hear me say that." I say softly.

"I did and I was so happy to hear it." He smiles.

"Can I stay here tonight?"

He walks over to his drawer and pulls out a shirt. "I think you have some shorts here." He says walking into his closet.

He walks out with them and hands me the shorts and shirt. "I'll step out and let you change."

"You don't have to. You can just turn around."

He turns around and I throw the clothes on and tell him it's fine.

"Do you want to watch a movie?" He ask and goes to his cabinet.

"Sure, what do you have?" I say walking over and sit next to him and we go through the movies.

"Hunger Games or Divergent?" He ask holding them both up.

I smile and grab Divergent.

"Of course, I should have known." He smiles and puts it in.

We lay on the bed and he pulls me closer and we cuddle and watch the movie. And I forget about everything that's been going on.

Josh's POV

I start to go after Riley but I already know her she's going. I go grab my letter and Auggies and tell my mom I'll talk to her later.

"I love you guys I hope you can forgive me." She kisses my cheek and leaves.

"You ok?" I hear Maya say as she comes down the stairs.

"My dad is gone. He wrote a letter." I hand it to her. "Will you read it to me?"

She takes it and smiles. "Of course." She opens and starts to read

Dear Josh,

I'm not sure who hates me more, you or Riley. I know I've screwed up big time with you guys and you're cussing me out right now but I couldn't live with my self knowing I hurt you guys that much that you hate me. I know asking you to forgive me is pointless because your stubborn. I just want you to know that I always regretted letting this happen to you kids.

I'm only saying this to you because I know you can handle it. I wish that I didn't have you guys and put you all through all of this. I wish I could take it all back. I know you're the strongest of the three of you but you handled it just like Riley if not worse. I also know you think this is all your fault and its not. There was nothing you could've done to stop it, no matter how much you tried, he would've found a way. At first I tried to stop it but I got selfish and just let it happened and made my self believe it was the last time, every time he did it.

I don't know if Riley told you but I did something to her I'm not proud of, and I wanted to kill my self then (if you didn't get to me first) but I still hoped things would get better and you guys would forgive me but after that night I told why its been going on I knew I had no shot.

I'm sorry about everything and I hope you will forgive me one day (but I know the chances are slim) because I want you all to move on from this and be happy.

-Love, dad

She finished and grabbed my hand.

"I still can't believe he couldn't say this to our face. I might of forgiven him if he would of said this to my face." I say and get up.

"I'm so pissed off I just want to break something I want to yell at him. I want him to see what he did to my little sister, his ONLY daughter. How can he just do that." I continue trying to find something to break but remember its not my house.

"I don't know, but you know he does love you guys. You three were his pride and joy. Everyone is selfish a couple of times in life. This was one of his times. I'm not telling you to forgive him because I couldn't forgive my dad for what he did, but you need to forgive yourself. It wasn't your fault with what happened with Riley. She forgives you because she knows it was out of your control, you should forgive yourself to."

"I know, but I still feel I should of did more." I say and sit next to her again. "Riley told me he took pictures of Auggie naked. I wasn't there for him. He's nine and probably was so scared and he had no one to help him."

"I know you feel this all your fault but it's not."

I just nod because she's right. I look at her and I can't help myself anymore and grab her face and kiss her. When I feel her kiss back I just feel so much better and all this electricity goes through my body. I pull away and look in her eyes.

"Finally. It took you long enough." She says smiling.

"Your so beautiful." I say looking into her eyes.

She blushes. "I've been waiting to do that for a while. I don't know why I was acting like I didn't like you because, I love you."

"I've been waiting to hear that." She says and kisses me.

Three weeks later

Auggie's POV

We moved in with Uncle Shawn about three weeks ago. My mom has been over a lot but my dad hasn't. Josh and Riley have been whispering a lot lately and every time I ask about dad they change the subject. Everything has been a lot better but I wish I was back with my parents.

I told Riley not to tell Josh about what Adam did but she did anyway. I already knew she would but now he keeps asking if he touched me and if I knew what the "good touches and bad touches" were. Of course I did I'm not that dumb.

"Riley, why hasn't dad came around?" She looks around the room then walks to the dresser and pulls out an envelope.

"Here. I'm suppose to wait until Josh gets back but I think we've kept it from you long enough."

I open up the letter and start to read but then ask Riley to read it to me. She walks us to bed and puts her arm around me and starts to read it.

Dear Auggie,

I'm sorry for doing this to you. I know you're confused about what's been going on this last year but it's all over now. You are safe and that's all that matters. Even though you're the youngest, I know you're the strongest Bubba, keep an eye on your brother and sister for me. I hope you know I love you. I know you know I love you, but if you could please let them I know I love them, that would be great. I'm going to miss you. You always had me laughing and watching you start to grow into a young man has been really great.

You are going to grow up to be a good and respectful young man. I'm sorry I won't be able to be there to see it but I will be watching over you. I'm sorry for everything I've put you through. I hope you can forgive me.

-Love, dad

"He's gone?" I ask.

"Ya, I'm sorry Auggie. We didn't know how to tell you. I know how much you love him." She says with tears in her eyes.

"It's not your fault. I wished I could of seen him one last time."

"You can. If you want to go to the funeral." She ask quietly. "You're old enough to know if you want to go or not."

"I want to."

After the funeral we all went to Shawn's and Katy's house and talked for a while.

"I found a new place for us. It's a gated community and I would love for you guys to come back home with me." Mom says.

"I want to come back. I miss you." I say and go and give her a hug and squeeze her as tight as I can.

"We would all love to come back." Riley says and looks and Josh.

"Ya, I miss you to." He says and joins the hug too.

"You have no idea how happy that makes me. I love you guys so much." She wipes her face. "I just need you guys to stay here about another week, while I get everything together. I swear, I'm going to make it up to you guys."

And she did.

Riley had to come and get me from school because Josh had detention. So we are stuck walking home. We've been back with mom for a couple of days and things are starting to get back to normal.

"How does it feel?" I ask Riley.

"How does what feel?" She laughs.

"Being free."

"Well August, it fells great. How do you feel?" She says in a bad British accent.

"If feels pretty good." I say in my awesome British accent.

We both laugh and keep walking home.

"What do you thi-" I get cut off when someone grabs me and Riley and we get thrown into a van and then everything goes black.
