I do not own any of the Summerland characters

Thanks for all the reviews, and telling me what you think about it. I am very glad most of you understand it.

The Truth

Ava watched as Catheren descended down the stairs, she had a gut feeling that she just made a huge mistake.

Bradin came back upstairs walked right past his Aunt, and got into his bed.

"Bradin." Ava began.

"Go to bed, Aunt Ava." Bradin said as he turned over in his bed, looking away from his Aunt.

Ava didn't know what to say, she decided she would have to deal with this a later time.

An hour later the phone rang. (At 2:00 am.) Bradin quickly picked up the phone.

"Hello." Bradin asked

"Bradin help me." He heard the voice on the other end say.

"Cat." Bradin said worry evident in his voice.

"I'm at Jamie's, Jay knows where that is. Please help." Cat said into the phone,. "Stop touching me, let me go." She said to someone in the room. The call ended and Bradin ran to Jay's room.

When he reached Jay's room he knocked on the door.

"What?" The tired Austrian asked as he opened the door.

"Cat's in trouble." Bradin said

"Where is she?" Jay asked thinking she was still in the house.

"At Jamie's, that's all she said." Bradin said

"Come on." Jay said as he grabbed his keys.

The two got into Jay car and drove.

"How do you know she's in trouble?"

"She called. I told her to call if she got in trouble."

Two minutes later Jay's car pulled up to a dark house.

"Come on." Jay said as he got out. They both walked up to the house. (Jay still has the cast on his foot, just to let you know.)

Jay opened the front do. It was unlocked; Bradin looked in and saw a guy, Jamie, on top of Cat.

Jay went tight toward Jamie and talked him to the ground. Ignoring the pain in his ankle.

All Bradin could hear from the two men was murmuring. He went over to Cat and untied her arms that were tired to the end of the couch. (they were tied because she was fighting Jamie and he didn't want to be punched my her.) After about a minute of fighting Jay was done with Jamie.

"Are you alright?" Jay asked Cat as he took off his shirt and put it around Cat's shoulders. He had a beater on underneath.

"I'll be fine." Cat said as she accepted the shirt.

"Why are you here?" Jay asked

"Ava kicked her out." Bradin said as he started toward the door with Cat in his arms. (She was walking. His arms were around her shoulders.)

When they got back to the house Jay told them to stay in his room. He would sleep on the couch. After some arguing he left.

Bradin and Cat fell asleep, but were awaken, when Ava came storming into the room, with Jay right behind her.

"Ava don't" Jay said just before she opened the door.

"Jay shut up, I though I kicked you out of this house" Ava began as she spotted Cat and Bradin in the bed. Both were sitting up now.

"Ava."

"Jay, not now."

"You did and I am sorry." Cat said

"Sorry isn't going to cut it." Ava began. "I kicked you out because you were in bed with Bradin. Now here you are again the same night. I don't understand. It's bad enough you..."

"Aunt Ava." Bradin called trying to get her to shut up for a minute.

"Not now, Bradin." Ava said "I don't understand this, you get kicked out for doing something but you do it again anyways, and it's behind my back. How dare you ask Jay to let you two sleep here..." Ava rambled on and on

Bradin was getting sick of it, he couldn't stand anymore of his Aunt yelling at them. "She was almost raped." Bradin yelled out. He said it before he could stop himself or think of the consequences.

Ava stopped mind sentence. "What did you say?" She asked Bradin.

"She was almost raped." Bradin said but quieter this time.

Ava took a moment this time before she spoke again. "Your Uncle tried to rape you?" She asked trying to stay calm.

"I wasn't at my Uncles." Cat said

"Then where were you?" Ava asked

"I went to a friends house, and my friend got the wrong idea."

"Why did you move out?"

Cat took a moment to answer. "Because he beats me." Cat said. "I moved out a week ago and moved in with a friend. I couldn't go to her house because she works a 36- hour shift at the hospital. She wants to be a surgeon. She locks the house, and I don't have a key yet."

"I'm so sorry." Ava said. "I didn't know. Why did you live with your Uncle is he beats you?"

"He was the only sort of family I had left. My father's family died. My mothers family disowned her. And my stepfather only had a brother. So we moved in with is, But he was like our step father." Cat said, as she began to talk Bradin noticed she was starting to get smaller. (Crunching up in a ball, trying to get away from everybody, smaller)

"Your stepfather beat you."

Cat didn't answer right away so Bradin decided to answer for her.

"Yea, and more." Bradin said Cat looked at him and he mouthed. 'They would find out eventually anyways.'

Cat mouthed back. 'I know.'

"And more?" Ava asked

"When I was 14, he made me do everything but sex with him. All the foreplay you can think of. Every night he would make me do that. But one night he wasn't him so Bradin came over and we were playing Monopoly. Bradin kept cheating and missing the places I had, by adding a number or subtracting one, depending on which ones he was trying to miss. So I ended up knocking his onto the ground. I sat on his chest and hit him with a pillow. That's when my stepfather came in. He picked me off of Bradin's chest and onto the couch I had in my room. He made Bradin watch. See my stepfather didn't want Bradin to run and tell someone so he had a gun; he had it point at Bradin most of the time that night. When he had finished with me he told Bradin that if he said anything to anybody he would kill me.

'The next night, Bradin was at the front door; my stepfather had called him and told him to come over. That night my stepfather tied us up and made us watch my mother and him have sex. My mother left for work, she worked the night shifts at the hospital. He untied us and told us to do the same, but with Bradin's boxers on and my underwear on, we pretended to have sex on my couch. That was what happened for the first month. He would hold the gun to the others head when telling one of us to do something. But after a month he had two friends come over. Each had a gun pointed to our heads. That night Bradin and I had sex. My stepfather videotaped it. The next day he died. A few days later I begged my mom to let us move. She moved in with my Uncle. Then died less than a year later." Cat said finishing her story

Bradin looked at her and didn't think he could get smaller. He moved slightly and put his arms around her.

"I had to idea." Ava said.

"Not many people do." Cat said. She looked at Jay then away. Bradin saw this exchange and wondered what it meant. But he didn't have much time to think about it for a cry was heard up stairs. Cat looked at Bradin. "That's Canan" She said

"I'll get her." Bradin said he let her go and walked past his Aunt and Jay. Jay put a hand on Bradin's shoulder. Then he knew Jay had known what had happened for a while now. Bradin made his way up the stairs and to his room. He found Canan sitting there starring but when she saw him she put her small arms up and wanted him to pick her up. He did, but set her down on his bed to change her. Once she was changed Bradin carried her down the stairs, then out to Jay's bed room. His Aunt had already left and Jay was just leaving, when Bradin came in."

"Mama." Canan cried as she saw Cat sitting on the bed.

"Hey baby." Cat said

Bradin handed Canan to Cat then went to go her on the other side of Cat.

"So she'd yours." Bradin stated more than asked

"Yea." Cat said

"Is she mine?" Bradin asked he looked into Cat's eyes and she looked back into his.

"Yea." She said "After I moved here I met Jay. Before I was showing to be pregnant he introduced me to Ava, Johnny, and Susannah. That was when Susannah start the whole fashion model thing. But I didn't want the to know I was pregnant so I stopped hanging out with them once I started to show. Jay saw me one day and asked how far along I was. I told him and he's been helping me out since." Cat explained to Bradin why Jay would know.

"That's not what I asked."

"I know but you were going to."

"True. Did you tell him about us?"

"Eventually Yea. I didn't know that Jay lived with your Aunt. I though they were just good friends. But he hasn't told a soul. That's why I work at his shop. I needed money and wonted to earn it. Jay was just going to give me the money. I gave lessons once I had given birth to her and I made boards for extra money. So I told Jay everything. He taught me how to surf, after Canan was born and helped me get back into shape. He would watch her in the store, when I was giving lessons.

"He's seems to care for you." Bradin said

"Only as a sister."

"Are you sure?"

"Yea, I'm sure. I told him there was someone in Kansas who stole my heart. He went through a lot to help me live, I told Jay."

"Are you sure, she'd mine?"

"You're the only person I have ever had sex with Bradin."

"I'm glad." Bradin said as he leaned in for a kiss

Canan started giggling.

"What are you laughing about?" Cat asked. Canan after the kiss ended.

"Mama...kissing Bran." Canan said as he giggled more.

Jay walked in

"Here let me have my Godchild for a little while. I think mama needs to sleep still." Jay said to Canan. He walked out he door holding her.

"You made Jay the Godfather." Bradin asked

"Yea, do you have a problem with that." Cat asked

"By the way, what does Canan mean?"

"It means 'Beloved' in Turkish." Cat said as she laid down.

"Why didn't you tell me before?" Bradin asked

"I didn't want it to hurt you, if I told you while you were still in Kansas..."

"I would have tried to help you."

"I know and I didn't want you to have to. I was my problem." Cat said as she kissed him

"But..." Bradin said when the kiss ended.

"No but..can we please talk about this later?" She asked

"Sure."

"Good."

"Is she from the first time or the second time?" He asked

"The second time." Cat said.

"Are you sure?"

"Very, did you have fun on the couch?"

"No."

"Did you enjoy the bed better?"

"Yea."

"So there you go, now shut up and go to sleep." Cat said

End of Chapter.

Yes they did it twice once when forced by the stepfather, and the next day after they found out he was dead.

Well that was long, now you know what happen. I don't know if I should write more of this story or not. This is the last I have written so far, but let me know if I should continue or if I should leave it like this.
