DISCLAIMER

You know this isn't mine, but Fox Family. Except for Christopher Wilkson and Stephen Conners. Those are mine. And thanks to Keke1 who gave me the information I'm using for these next few chapters. Oh, and I know I didn't say it in the last chapter, but Peter and Sophie are with Scott and his mom.

Scott watched as Elaine and some guy walked up to the judge. Scott stepped back, shrinking into his mother.

"Don't worry honey. We won't let her hurt you," Susan whispered.

"Yeah. You don't even have to look at her, bud," Peter added.

"Just us, Scott. It's why we're here," Sophie finished.

"Somebody had better start explaining," Elaine snapped.

"This is a custody hearing, Ms. Barringer," Judge Wilkson responded. "Now, according to Scott, you're the reason why he wants to be placed back into his mother's custody," he continued. Scott glared at Elaine. Barringer was his name. She didn't deserve it.

"Whatever Scotty has told you, it's all lies. Martin loves Scotty dearly, but Scotty took it very hard when Martin married me. He blamed me for his parents divorce and turned to drugs," Elaine stated.

"No. I was using because you molested me; you said I couldn't tell…you made me dirty! You took my father from me! Even when he finally believed me about you, he said it was my fault!" Scott screamed.

"Look, I don't want to talk about what happened to you, Scott. If you couldn't get up enough guts to say 'no'" Martin began.

"See, this is what I mean, judge! She was the adult and she shouldn't have been coming into my room. He was supposed to protect me and he didn't," Scott interrupted.

"Okay, okay, everybody just calm down," Judge Wilkson said. "Now…Mr. Barringer, what were the circumstances in which you discovered that your wife was abusing your son?" he asked.

"Um, that's not important," Martin fudged.

"I think it is, Mr. Barringer," Judge Wilkson stated. The man muttered something intelligible.

"I'm sorry, what?" was the prompt. Martin muttered again.

"Mr. Barringer, you're going to have to speak up," the judge stated.

"I said, it was when we were making love! She called me Scotty and told me to kiss her," Martin responded. Scott could only stare.
