Thanks for the reviews. I hope you like the chapter. I don't own anyone but Rachel.

~*~*~* Big Decision *~*~*~

When Rachel woke up she thought about the family she never had. She wanted a family of her own. To her that meant that Kevin and Lucy was the best choice for her. If she moved in with Kevin then she would be their first child and be the start of their new family. She also knew Kevin a lot better then the Camdens. She decided to move in with Kevin and Lucy. He was family and she could see him as her father.

Kevin, Lucy, Eric, Annie, and Ruthie all came to social services to talk to Rachel.

"Hi, everyone."

"Hi, Rachel."

"I have made my decision. It was a really big and hard decision to make. I feel that I would like to start the Kinkirk family if it is ok. I love both families and I hope to be around both of them a lot but I would like to live with Kevin and Lucy."

"It is perfectly fine with us." Kevin said

"I am very happy for you." Eric said

"Reverend Camden, I am not over what has happened to me. If I get to leave I was hoping that you could help me try to get over my fears and to move on as best as I can with counseling sessions. Will you help me?"

"I would be honored."

"Thank you. And Ruthie, will you be there for me as a friend and sister?"

"I would love to."

Kevin and Lucy went to talk to the social services women. They discussed the custody of Rachel. At the moment, Rachel's mom still had custody of her. This could change though. If the judge believed that Rachel would never live with her mom again, he could make Rachel's mom give up custody. In which Kevin would get custody over anyone else since he is family.

At the Courthouse

When they arrived, they were nervous and excited. Kevin, Lucy, and Rachel all walked into the room and saw Rachel's mom, Carrie, sitting in a chair with handcuffs on. The judge told Carrie that even when she gets out of jail she is never going to be able to have her daughter back. She thought about how about how if someone else was going to get her daughter it should be her nephew (Rachel's cousin). Carrie was getting help for her abuse. It turns out that she was abused by Rachel's dad before they broke up. Carrie had always blamed Rachel for their divorce and arguments.

Carrie signed papers and then so did Kevin and Lucy. Rachel had to sign one paper that said she was ok with the adoption. Rachel would only have to wait a little longer until her dreams finally came true.

What will happen? When will she move in? What will the next secret be? PLEASE REVIEW!!!!
