Gwen shifted in her sleep as her father drove all the way back to Bellwood. It was a 10 hour drive and she could already tell that her dad was getting anxious. She turned her head to him and stared at his white knuckles clasping the wheel tightly trying to restrain his anger as he drove down the country side. "It wasn't Ben's fault" She whispered.

Frank took a quick glance her way.

"No?" He responded his clench on the wheel tightening.

"He got struck by a bolt of energy. He was probably feeling dizzy. Heck, he probably thought I was Julie" Gwen answered. Frank furrowed his eyebrows.

"Ben shouldn't be having intercourse at his age and neither should you" He muttered not bothering to look at her. Gwen bit her lip looking down. She closed her eyes clasping her own hands. "I'm sorry alright. I didn't mean to and it won't happen again" She whispered sighing but it didn't make Frank feel any better. "Did Ben take advantage of you?" Frank breathed in trying to get it out in the open. Gwen stared up at him eyes wide and questioned. "What? No!" She answered a hint of rage in her voice. He took another breath.

"You hurt your cousin, right?"

"Yeah,"

"You felt bad for him"

"Well, yeah. He is my family"

"So he asked you if you wanted to have..." He didn't say the word.

"...And you felt sorry for him so you did?"

Gwen remained silent by her dad's words. He had pretty much described the whole scenario of what had happened between her and Ben.

"From your silence I'm guessing I'm right"

Gwen avoided looking at him instead turned her attention towards her lap as her eyebrows furrowed unhappily. "I don't think that I want you hanging around your cousin anymore. Understand?"

Gwen nodded slowly before turning to him.

"My cousin didn't take advantage of me. He would never do that; he's my cousin" She gave out one last weaze of hope but it was cut short by her Dad.

"Gwen, he took advantage of you end of story" He quickly ended the conversation. He turned right heading towards a nearby town.

"When we get home, you're grounded" He told her.

Gwen nodded.

"No more boys around the house, especially Ben. And, if there is a boy in your room you are to keep your door wide open" He stated. Gwen didn't bother arguing there was no point. "...Are you still in pain?" He turned to her looking at her stomach. Gwen slided her hands around her stomach and shook her head. "Not really" She replied before turning her head to the window letting her head rest on the seat belt.

"You're tired, get some sleep. I'll wake you up when we get home, okay?"

Gwen nodded before closing her eyes drifting off into a soft slumber.

Ben sat down in the RV as Max paced back and forward with his arms crossed and eyes narrowed. Ben didn't utter a word as Max spoke. "What did you and Gwen do while Kevin and I were camping?" Max asked.

"Nothing" Ben shrugged. "Just played a few boardgames and went to bed"

"In the same bed?"

Ben looked up at him.

"No," Ben gave him his signiture smirk.

"Then care to explain to me why I had to take Gwen to the abortion clinic?"

Ben eyes widened.

"What?" He breathed out unsure what he just heard.

"I took your cousin to the doctors yesterday and she told me that you and her had relations" Max narrowed his eyes at him. Ben stood up immediatly. "What? Is she still there?" Ben asked. Max shook his head.

"Her father picked her up dismorning and is taking her home"

Ben's eyes widened. "Is she okay?" Ben asked. Max shook his fine. "Physically. Not emotionally" He answered. "Ben you took complete advantage of your cousin"

"No I-"

"She was scared and worried about making it up to you for her shooting you so you decided to make her have-"

"I DIDN'T MAKE GWEN DO ANYTHING" Ben shouted fists clenched as he got up in Max's face.

"I'd never take advantage of my cousin" Ben clenched his teeth angrily.

Max shook his head. "She was literally shaking in the clinic, Ben"

"Well...did she even want to get rid of the baby?" Ben crossed his arms.

"No, but she didn't have a choice"

"Exactly, she you forced her to get rid of the baby" Ben bit back. Max's eyes widened.

"Ben, your cousin's 15 years old. Her parents would've disowned her if she were to have a kid" Max stated coldly. Ben frowned. He looked over to the RV door. "I'm going to go see her" Ben shoved passed his grandpa and walked out the door before Max could grab him.

Gwen walked in the door with her door. She was nervous to see her Mother. Frank placed his keys into the lock before looking over to her.

"Come on Gwen. Your mum just wants to know that you're okay" He took her wrist and led her inside. Gwen watched as she was dragged through the door only to see her mother standing there with red rings around her eyes. She looked like she had been crying since she found out.

"Mum" She whispered.

Lily walked over hugging her daughter tightly in her arms.

"Oh Gwenny" She cried lightly as she continued to hug her tightly. "Mum, I'm so sorry" She whispered as she closed her eyes. "It's alright, you're going to be okay" She whispered brushing her daughters hair. Gwen's eyes watered threatening to stream down her cheeks.

"You had me worried sick. Oh, you are grounded, young Lady" She hugged her tighter. Gwen breathed out as she caught sight of her dads stare. He seemed unhappy with her. "Are you okay?" Lily looked her daughter straight in the eyes.

"I'm fine mum" She whispered. "Did he hurt you?"

"What? no!" She didn't want to talk about it with her parents. Frank came over to the both of them. "We better get you something to eat.

Dad said she hadn't eaten in three days" He took her daughters arm leading her out the room and into the kitchen. Gwen stared at him as he went into the fridge taking out ham before walking into the cupboard and pulling out the bread.

Gwen sat down on the counter catching her Dad's attention as he made the sandwiches. Frank stared at her with a frown.

"Gwen, don't sit on the counter"

She sighed moving herself off the counter before coming over to him. "Sorry," She mumbled before her mum came in. "How long am I grounded for?" She asked her mum.

"Til you're 18" Lily said strongly without hesitation. Gwen gulped as her dad passed her the plate. Gwen smirked taking the plate and biting one of the sandwiches. "Thankyou" She whispered taking a bite.

Frank smiled before taking his wife in his arms and holding her.

Gwen stared over to them and smiled before chewing down the rest of her lunch. "Do you want me to start cooking dinner?" Gwen asked them. Lily smiled. "Yes please, Gwendolyn" Her mother smiled at her. Gwen smiled back. "You should probably rest though Gwen," Lily whispered over to her.

Gwen smirked. "I'll be fine. I slept on the way here" Gwen took out a fry pan as she took another bite from the sandwiches. Frank and Lily smiled before walking off out of the kitchen.

Ben watched from the window as his cousin cooked. He silently crept up to the window tapping on it.

Gwen looked over to the window.

Ben smiled but Gwen didn't return the favour.

She turned round ignoring him.

"Oh come on Gwen" He complained opening the window.

Gwen sighed didn't bother turning around. She continued to cut the carrots and potatoes as Ben stood behind her.

"I understand if you're upset" He whispered crawling through the window and into the kitchen.

The redhead continued to ignore him.

"I'm really sorry for what I did to you"

Ben told her but she didn't bother.

"I know I should've been there for you and I'm sorry I ignored you after..."

"I should've been with you when you went into the clinic"

He watched as Gwen bent over her knuckles going white as she stopped cutting the vegetables. "Gwen, please say something" He whispered walking up to her. He took hold of her shoulders and turned her around.

He gasped as he saw her face. Tears were rushing down her flustered cheeks.

"Gwen!" He wiped her tears with his thumb. Gwen sniffed before pushing him away. "Leave me away Ben" Gwen whispered. turned around and picking the knife back up.

"Gwen, I'm...I'm so sorry" He whispered. She shook her head. "You think an apologees going to make up for everything you put me through" She picked the knife up bringing it close to him.

Ben put his hands up and took a step away from her. "You ignore me for a whole week after the incident.

You didn't speak to me, you didn't look at me, you didn't even try to take care of me. You took advantage of me and practically ruined mine and Kevin's relationship. Because of you; I feel terrible for what I've done" Ben took another step back from her.

"I'm sorry..." He whispered.

"Sorry? Sorry?, Sorry doesn't make up for what you did to me Ben" Her cheeks began to fluster even more.

"I hate you Ben" She narrowed his eyes at him.

"Gwen, please"

"GET OUT OF MY HOUSE" She shouted.

"Alright, fine. I understand, I'll give you some time" Ben whispered crawling back out the window.

"I'll see you later, Gwen" He whispered as she gritted her teeth still holding the knife tightly. She dropped it breaking down into a crying fit.

Ben sat outside the window hearing her pain feeling every inch of guilt and pain he had put her through.
