A/N: I am so so so sorry I haven't updated sooner. I'm finishing up the first Twilight I've ever done and it's been kind of time consuming. I hope this chapter helps make up for it.
Chapter 8.
Abby's POV
Two months, that's how long I've been living with my new parents. Parents, that word was so strange to me, before it didn't mean much but now everything was different. Mom and Dad loved me like I was their own flesh and blood, and I cherished every moment of it. Dad spoiled buying me everything that caught my eye.
Mom finally found Kylie, she was staying in Florida with her older sister, which put both our minds at ease. I loved every one in my new family, grandma and pawpaw welcomed me immediately, and my cousin were all amazing. Alice's oldest daughter had the same name as and insisted that she got to stay Abby so I started going by Abigail. Her youngest sister Kaylie loved spending the night with me, she was always wanting to play dress up and making me give her makeovers. Little Nessie had to be my favorite though, she was only two and was so adorable.
I was taking online classes to help me catch up in school, and next year I would be transferring to a private school right outside of town. Aunt Alice took me shopping almost every week, and when she didn't she would bring me home bags of clothes. My new life was better then anything I could have ever dreamed of.
Rosie's POV
Life was amazing right now, I had Emmett and Abigail, I wasn't sure it could get much better then this. Of course while this was blissful we were also hard at work trying to get Royce off the street. Edward had around and a investigation was now under way, however they made sure Abigail, Bella, Kylie, and I would testify against him. Everyone agreed to it of course and Royce was now being watched. I waited everyday for a letter saying our case would be heard.
Kylie called me everyday, she loved it in Florida, the sun, the beach, the boys. She was sharing an apartment with her sister, and had a job at a surf shop. I was proud of her, and she was happy to her Abigail was safe.
"She was kinda like my little sister," she told me, "She became his new favorite after you left, I think it's the blonde hair." she half laughed. "I couldn't help but thinking she was to pretty for all that." I promised her we'd come visit once it was safe enough to travel and she couldn't wait to see us.
Emmett was spoiling our newly adopted daughter. In the two months she's been here, she's painted her room purple, bought completely new furniture, new comforter, new curtian's, and somehow manage to steal Shasta away from me. I loved her though with all my heart. I already had so many pictures of her it wasn't even funny, her and Shasta asleep on the couch, her playing with Nessie, her and Abby asleep in her bed, her giving Kaylie a makeover. I think she's starting to get annoyed with it, but I don't care. A knock on the front door brought me out of my thoughts.
"I'll get it." Abigail said running to the front door. "Uncle Edward," she gave him a hug, "What are you doing here?"
"I need to talk to you and your mom." he walked into the living room. "Have a seat Abigail." He sat down in front of me and she took the open seat beside me. "They've collected enough evidence, and enlisted a few more girls to speak out in your case." he told us, "and if you still want to go through with it, we can proceed to court now."
"Well let's do this then." I said, "The sooner we get this all over with the better things will be, for all of us." I took Abigail's hand in mine.
"We need to figure out a safe way for Kylie to get here." she said. "He'll be watching the airports now that three of us are gone."
"She's right," I agreed, "She'll need to land somewhere else and one of us drive to get her."
"I'm taking care of that," Edward assured us, "the only thing you ladies need to worry about is getting your statements together, I'll take care of the rest." Edward hugged us goodbye and then left.
"This is really happening." Abigail said starring straight ahead. "I don't know if I can handle seeing him face to face. He's in all my nightmares, and sometimes he comes into my thoughts during the day." tears were forming in her eyes. "I'm scared mom." I wraped her in a hug and held on to her as she started to cry.
"Everything will be okay. I won't let him hurt you I promise." I told her, "If he came anywhere near you daddy would kill him and you know that." I kissed the top of her head.
I told Emmett about what Edward had said that night after Abigail was in bed. He was scared for Abigail almost as much as I was. I told him about her breakdown after Edward left and what she'd said about her nightmares.
"I hope that bastard rots in hell for everything he's put all of you through." Emmett growled. "My little girl won't even walk to the mailbox by herself for fear of being taken away from us. The courts better make the right decision in all this our I might have to do something."
"Please don't do anything that will put you in danger," I said, "She doesn't need that right now, she just needs a dad." As if on cue Abigail was at our door.
"This makes me feel insanely stupid she said but, I can't sleep every time I close my eyes he's there." she walked over and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Come on lay down in here with us, this bed plenty big enough." I told her. She crawled in the middle of the bed, unsure of where to lay down. Emmett wrapped his arm around her and held her.
"No one is going to hurt," he told her, "Not as long as your mom and I are here, so try and get some sleep." Emmett stroked her hair and we talked till she feel asleep, Emmett left the room to go sleep on the couch so we would have more space. I slept with my daughter beside me and the love my life in the just rooms away, feeling safe and loved.
When I woke up the bed was empty I looked around the room but no one was there, I could hear laughter and music coming from the front of the house. So I dressed and went to investigate. As I neared the kitchen I could hear the music more clearly.
"She wraps those hands around that pole, she licks those lips and off we go, she takes it off nice and slow cause that's porn star dancing." I turned the corner and saw Emmett at the stove cooking breakfast, Abigail sitting on the counter doing some kind of dance and singing along, and some boy about her age was sitting at the table.
"Good morning everyone." I said walking into the kitchen.
"Morning mom." Abigail said before going back to the song. I walked over to Emmett who gave me a kiss.
"Her song choice not mine," he said with a laugh. "Oh Rose, this is Embry, he use to help me out in the dinner, Embry this is Rose."
"Hi Rose, it's nice to meet you." he waved in my direction.
"Nice to meet you too." I said. "Abigail get off the counter." she hopped down and took a seat at the table.
"So how old are you?" she asked Embry.
"I'm seventeen." he told her.
"Why aren't you in school?" she gave him quizzical look.
"I dropped out, now what about you?" he turned on her.
"Online classes, just until next year." she told him.
"Unless she can keep her grades up." I added. "Then we just may let her finish high school online." she smiled. They started chatting and I turned to Emmett. "Care to explain why he's here?"
"He's gonna help me fix up the fence around the property for some extra cash, and I thought Abigail could use some teen to teen interaction to clear her mind." he looked aver at the two of them, "although I wish I knew some girl teenagers instead." I laughed quietly.
