Step-Uncle? Step-dad.?

"David, let's get one thing straight here: your not my dad, your my mother's husband" Beth said, I was coming in from the back patio after finishing a delicous piece of coconut creme pie, "congrats.." I said but saw Beth shouting at my uncle David. Quite a scene to come into, of course let me backtrack to earlier that day. (que flashback music) My grammie has a summer cottage on a lake, my mom hates that place because she had to spend every summer there as a teenager and there was nothing to do. We go every other summer, and I look forward to driving up that dusty gravel road, and seeing a tiny cottage in the middle of the woods. I was expecting a normal trip, well it didn't go as planned. My mom told me that one the drive up there, that was my uncle was dating a nice woman named Anne, and that she had two kids- Beth and Peter. Beth was a year younger than me, and Peter was my age. Anne's husband had died from cancer years ago and my uncle and her had been dating for awhile. My mom explained that if her brother David married Anne, they would be my step-cousins. So, my uncle David would be my step-uncle? no I would have step-cousins. Beth and her mom decided to take a canoe trip around the lake. Grammie had just cut a watermelon, and I couldn't resist and got a slice. My mom told me that she wanted to tell me something, but I was really focused on my slice of watermelon. Peter and my uncle soon set up the tennis net and played bad minton against each other; Peter was no match for my uncle. We had a nice dinner and my mom pulled me aside, she wanted to tell me something, she didn't want the others to know so she whispered it in my ear. I scarfed down my pie, and went inside, to where you the reader come in. "Now Bethie, calm down" her mother said. Calm down, calm down? her mother was going to marry this guy, and they had finally gotten over her father's death. It was as if, her father did'net exist and she was marring someone else. I hugged her, which probabily didn't help. "Welcome to the family" I said. Beth crossed her arms, "Don't I have a say in this?" she said. And a year later, my uncle David married Anne. My mom attended the wedding, and that Beth had quite a sourpuss expression on her face when they took a picture of her and her brothers and the new bride. It took a while for Beth to warm up to my uncle, but now the two are close. I now have step-cousins, I would see them right now, but Beth is expecting her first child and Peter is studying to be a lawyer. I hope that when this is all over, I can see them.
