The boys ran in the cabin to get their bathing suits on with me asking why they would go in the dirty water when we just showered.

"Because we are boys who don't really care what happens. We are going home soon anyways." Wyatt replied being the only boy still outside grabbing his bathing suit.

Ethan and I sit outside on the porch waiting. Once the boys are out we head over to the beach racing each other down the stairs. Not surprisingly I am last because I have a tendency of falling down stairs so I didn't go to fast.

When I finally got to the bottom, Ethan was waiting at the bottom of the last staircase with his arms wide. I pushed past him making him make a pouty face. I started  laughing really hard causing him to start chasing me. I started to run away, pushing past people and almost knocking over a younger camper. I ran all the way to the beach hut where the life jackets were. I stopped to catch my breath and turn to see where Ethan is. He was back near the life guard chair talking to Arctic. He leaves the conversation walking over to where I am with his head down.

"What happened Ethan?" I asked nervous of what the answer was. He finished walking over and sighed.

"He said that we need to break up or that if he finds out that we haven't that he will tell John." Ethan said. I couldn't believe. The guy I believed as family turned on me and said that he would throw Ethan and I under the bus because he confessed his crush on me and didn't get the answer he wanted. If I dated Arctic it would be even worse than dating Ethan because Arctic is 20. Ethan just turned 18.

I started walking over to where Arctic was but Ethan grabbed my arm.

"Riley, don't bother. It's not worth it." Ethan pushed.

"You don't understand Ethan. I am furious. I thought of Arctic as family. For him to be mad at me for not liking him the way he likes me is fine but to tell us that we have to break up or he will tell John is stupid. He wanted to get with me. Most likely for sex. Which is awful because I am only fifteen. You on the other hand, you don't even care to have sex with me. He also violated me. He kissed me Ethan. I know normally that's nothing but Sunday was the first time I kissed someone so it's important to me and he ruined that. I hate him Ethan and I am not going to be quiet because he didn't get what he wanted." I let out. I yank my arm out of Ethan's grip and walk over to Arctic.

"Can I talk to you?" I ask.

"Actually Riley, I am a little bus...." He started

"I don't care. Come with me." I interrupted. He gets up and follows me to the opposite direction to where Ethan is.

"Okay I can't believe you. You think because I won't go out with you that you can tell me that Ethan and I can't be together. I'm sorry but I am pretty sure you could have gotten in more trouble for dating me than Ethan. You are 20. Ethan just turned 18 meaning that they don't know if we started dating before he turned 18. Also we live near each other so how do they know if weren't already dating. Anyways, if you want to play that game I'll play. Do you think you are going to have your job if they find out that you kissed a minor. A minor who has bad anxiety. Who do you think they are going to believe?" I tell him. I see that he is thinking and wait.

"Fine. But Riley don't ever come near me again. You are not my niece." He retorts

"I don't care. I have a real uncle now." I yell and walk away with a grin on my face. I skip my over to Ethan. He wraps his arms around my waist.

"Did you fix it?" He asked. I nodded with a smile.

"Have I ever told you how much I love you?" He replies.

We walk up and down the beach shore talking until its time to go back upstairs for dinner. When we are back up the stairs the boys and I start guessing dinner.

"I think its sausage and perogies." Wyatt thought out loud.

"No, Mac and cheese." Thomas said.

"What about Pizza casarole?" Josh asked.

"I'm hoping for fried chicken." Ethan said.

" Am I the only one wanting Caeser salad?" I asked. All of the boys looked at me.

"What? I love Caeser salad." I replied.

"Well, Ri, if we have something with Caeser salad you can have the bowl of caeser salad." Ethan said while the boys nodded.

"And I'm the one that doesn't look healthy." I mutter.

We got to the cabin and the boys ran in to change again.

Once they finished, we ran for dinner because we were already late.
