ABUSED:ASHELY'S STORY

CHAPTER 18

I finally had my twins. Shay and Shane. Charlie seemed to like having a sister and brother. Dylan was going to college and holding a job. I had a job but I took online classes. Dean still lived with us. Dean had a girlfriend. She was okay. I didn't like her very much. She was rude to me because of my scars and my past. She thinks she knows everything.
"Babe I'm home!" Dylan yelled
"Daddy!" Charlie ran to the door
"Hi sweetie" Dylan picked her up
"Hey hon" I walked down and kissed him
Dean walked in ten minutes later. His girlfriend showed up twenty minutes later. The baby's started crying. I walked to there room. I picked Shay up and started to feed her. After that I set her down and fed Shane. They both fell asleep. I walked down and made dinner. I put plates out. We all sat down. Charlie was talking all dinner. She made me laugh. Deans girlfriend got mad.
"Can you shut your rat up?" She asked
"Excuse me?" I looked at her
"I want some peace and quiet and she won't shut up!" She yelled
"Scarlett Charlie is a part of this family!" Dean spoke up
"Dean baby you live with a stupid-"
"Don't" I stood up.
I picked Charlie up and took her to her room. I sat on her bed and read her a story. She fell asleep. I tucked her in and left her room. I went back down and did the dishes. Scarlett came in.
"Leave me alone" I said
She grabbed my wrist. "You see all these scars they are a sign of weakness!"
"No you don't know anything about me" I pulled away
She grabbed me and shoved me into the wall " your a weak bitch. Dean and Dylan only feel sorry for you. Charlie isn't even Dylan's kid! Does he know? Or did you keep that from him too?"
"Let go of me" I shoved her off
"Why don't you just admit it that they only feel sorry for you. There live isn't real!" She stormed away
I sat down and felt a tear run down my face. Dylan and Dean came in. I saw Scarlett behind Dean. I got up and pushed past everyone. Dylan fallowed me.
"Babe what's going on?" Dylan asked
"Nothing just want to go to bed" I said walking into the bedroom.
"Ash please tell me what's going on" Dylan fallowed me
"Dylan what's up with Ash?" Dean asked
"Scarlett is giving her a hard time. You should of heard them in the kitchen. Scar said that we only feel sorry for her" Dylan explained
Dean walked away. Dylan came in. I was looking through folders.
"Babe put those away. Let's go to bed" Dylan took everything away from me. We cuddled and went to bed. I woke up to the baby's crying. I got up and went to there room. Dean was in there to.
"Hey Ash" He said
"Hey Dean. I hate to ask but can you not have Scarlett come around anymore" I picked up Shay
"Of course she told me everything. I kicked her out" He picked up Shane
We talked and finally the babies fell asleep. I went back to bed for five minutes before my alarm rang. I got out of bed and walked down stairs. We were out of coffee and the maker was broken. I made breakfast for Charlie Dylan and Dean. They all came running down.
"Coffee?" Dylan asked
"The maker is broken and we are out anyway." I answered
"Well I will get coffee on my way home and buy a new Coffee maker" Dean sat down
"Mommy! Mommy!" Charlie ran down
"What sweet heart?" I asked
"It's show and tell day at school!" She smiled
"Okay what do you want to show?" I asked giving her food
"I don't know" She said taking a bite of food
"What about your favorite toy." Dean looked up
"Yeah I will take Mr.Winkers" She smiled
"Why is it named that?" Dean asked
"It only has one eye" I smiled
"Why?" Dean asked
"Because it was my first toy ever" I answered
"Okay old toy" Dean laughed
I threw the towel at him. My phone started to ring. I picked it up and left the room.

"Come on Charlie time for school" I picked her up
She struggled out of my grip then ran to her room to get her bear. While she was out of the room. I told the boys what was going on. Charlie came skipping back down. I drove her to school. I kissed her and then she left. I drove home.
"What are we going to do?" I asked
"Tell the truth babe. You don't abuse those kids. Our kids." Dylan said
"Charlie isn't yours what do I tell him if he asks. I don't want Charlie to know the truth she is to young" I cried
"Charlie is my girl. She is everything to me. You tell him the truth. That Wesley raped you but Charlie is my girl" Dylan said hugging me
"I have to hide my scars. He will think I'm not fit to be a mother" I started freaking out
"Hey Ash you are fit to be a mother. You are an amazing mother. Charlie looks up to you." Dean said
"Thanks guys now let's get this house cleaned up and some one go get coffee" I said
"I will should I get a new coffee maker to?" Dean asked
"Yes" I smiled
Dean left while I cleaned the house. I left around one to go get Charlie. She was happy. I buckled her in and drive home. Dean was home with food and coffee. I plugged in the new coffee maker and made coffee. Half an hour later there was a knock on the door. I opened it and let him in.
"Can I get you a coffee?" I asked
"Please" He said sitting down.
I brought him a coffee. Charlie was doing her homework at the table. I was sitting next to Dylan and Dean.
"So Ashely you were abused" Mr.Hockman said
"Yeah and put into foster care." I said
"And you have three kids" He asked
"Yes Charlie Shay and Shane" I answered
"And Charlie isn't Dylan's biological father correct" He said
I looked over at Charlie who was still doing work. "Correct but he has raised Charlie so she is his"
"Okay and Shane and Shay are Dylan's"
"Yes"
"I also need to give you this. You are a good family." He handed us an envelope
"So you're not going to take my kids away from me?" I asked
"No ms.Carter" He left my house.
I put the letter on the table and went to help Charlie. She was almost done. We watched a movie after homework. Dylan made diner. I put Charlie to bed after I read her a chapter from the wizard of oz. I walked back down and sat on the couch. I opened the letter. I felt a tear slip down my face. Dylan came in and hugged me. The letter fell to the floor. This was far from over.  Dean came down and picked up the letter. He set it down and walked away.
The letter said that Wesley wanted custody of Charlie. Shay and Shane were crying. I walked to the room. I changed them both and fed them. I stayed in there room until Dylan came and got me. We went to bed. I changed and got into bed. Dylan was already in bed. I curled up next to him.
"He can't take her can he?" I asked
"No babe he can't it has been what six years since we even saw him" Dylan Held me.
"Okay she is my baby not his" I cried
My phone started buzzing. I picked it up.

"Can this night get any worse!" I yelled
"Ashely come quick. Something is wrong with Charlie" Dean screamed
I ran to find Charlie in the bathroom puking up blood. We rushed we to the ER. Dean stayed with the twins.
