After opening presents we decided to go down to the beach. Emily was making a big welcome home dinner for me, so we thought it would be best if we staid out of her way.

Embry was the happiest to see me. It was obvious that everyone else was happy, but it was also obvious that he was the happiest. He kept his arm around me and kissed me every chance he got.

We rode in different cars, but I decided that I wanted to ride with Cameryn, Paul, and Embry. Paul rode in the front with Embry, and I rode in the back with Cameryn.

"How's the baby?" I asked quietly.

"Great," Cameryn laughed. "She's doing amazingly well."

"She?" I questioned. "It's a girl?"

"Yeah. We're naming her Pamryn Danika," she told me.

"That's so great." I hugged her. "Congratulations."

"We're also getting married," Paul spoke up.

My eyes widened with excitement. "You are? When?"

"After I have the baby." She put my hand on her stomach. "And loose all the baby fat."
"You're not fat," Paul argued.

She shook her head. "You know I am."
"You're not fat," I agreed. "So be quiet."

"I am!" she argued. "Don't deny my fatness!"

Paul reached his hand behind him and put it on her knee. "You are not fat, baby."
She crossed her arms over her chest. "Fine."

He smiled. "Good."

We got to the beach and got out of the car. The rest of our friends were waiting for us, which meant that we were late, as usual.

Cameryn and Paul started getting all cuddly, so Jared and Kim ran into the water.

"Cut it out!" Jared threw a rock at the back of Paul's head. He and Kimmy were in the water, in nothing but their underwear. Paul took off his shirt and pants and dove in. He climbed on top of Jared and dunked him.

"C'mon, Cammy!" Kimmy called. "The water's great."
"No thanks," she laughed. "Not good for the baby." I sat down in the sand and let the water encompass my feet.

"Come on!" Paul called. "I bet Payton'll go in."

I held up my hands. "Oh, no."
Embry picked me up and ran into the water. I screamed with laughter as they fell into the water.

"C'mon baby," Paul called. "Please!"

Cameryn pulled off my shirt. "Fine."

She ran into the water.

We played around, and it was so much fun. The water was freezing, but I was around people I loved, and that was all I could ever ask for.

It was freezing outside when we were finished swimming. Embry let me use his clothes to change into, like most of the guys did for their girls. I changed quickly and cuddled into his arms.

When we got back to Emily's house, she had dinner waiting for us. Spaghetti and meatballs were on the table: my favorite. I loved Emily's spaghetti so much that I could hardly stand it.

"They're such pigs," Kim laughed.

"Tell me about it," Taya chuckled.

Cameryn and I looked at each other. She put her arm around me, and I put my hand on her stomach. I rubbed her stomach gently until I felt something unusual

"Ohmygod!" I exclaimed. "I just felt it kick!"
"Me too!" she hugged me. "Paul! The baby kicked!"
All the boys stopped. "What?"

"The baby kicked!"
Suddenly, about six pairs of hands were feeling on Cameryn's stomach. She held up her shirt, and everyone continued to attack it.

"This is so great!" Paul exclaimed, and then he kissed her. "Our baby kicked!"
"Yeah! Our baby is amazing."

"Alright, everyone off the pregnant woman," Emily teased. Everyone backed off. "It's my turn."

"Our baby girl is having a baby girl!" Emily squealed. She hugged me and kissed my cheek.

"I'm hungry," Cameryn stated. "Let's eat."
We ate dinner.

I had to leave by nine. I was sad to go; I cried when I said goodbye to Embry. Cameryn cried when she said goodbye to her. I knew it was the last time I would see her for a while, and that was the part I hated.

My uncle came, and I left. I hugged them all goodbye again, kissed Embry, and then walked out the door.

"How was your time?" Uncle Marcus asked.

"It was great." I wiped away my tears. "Just a little emotional."

"I have something to talk to you about when you get the kids to bed," he explained.

We got home quickly, and I tucked the kids in. I kissed them goodnight, but not before hearing the story of the amusement park. I listened to it, and then turned off the lights; I walked into the room that Uncle Marcus and I shared.

"What did you tell them?" he asked me carefully.

I was shocked. "Nothing, why?"

"Because I got this." He held up a note. "It's for a court hearing."
"I didn't tell them anything!" I said quickly. "If I did I wouldn't have come back to you."

"Yeah, you better not have told them anything." He came and took me by the neck. "Did you?"

"No, I swear."

"Good." He kissed me roughly, and then started chuckling. "You smell like ocean water."

"I went swimming," I told him quietly.

"Go take a shower, and then come back here."

I did as he told me.

When I got out of the shower, Uncle Marcus took me by the waist and pulled me into a kiss. He was also naked, and rubbed his dick against my thigh. He made me touch his dick, and moved my hand up and down.

He raped me again. That night I made a pact with myself. I promised that when the court hearing arrived, I would tell the court what Uncle Marcus was truly doing to me. I wouldn't let him rape me anymore. I couldn't take it. I wanted to be a normal girl, with a normal life, but I couldn't do that. I couldn't be normal because my family was a bunch of perverted freaks.

While I slept I dreamed of Embry. He saved me from my uncle just like he saved me from my father. He would walk in on me being raped, and then kill Uncle Marcus, or at least throw him in jail. I dreamt that he made me feel special like he did when he held me. He protected me from everything, even my uncle. I would be eighteen soon, and I could spend the rest of my life with him. The ring on my finger proved that he loved me, and I loved him back.
