(Harrys P.O.V)

I walk up the steps and to her door wondering if I should even do this. I let out a sigh, "here goes nothing," I mutter to myself. I knock on the door, once, then twice. Someone opens the door and it's not her. My, face drops, I begin to talk but he punches my shoulder, hard. I pushed him away from me, he stumbled a bit then collapsed onto the floor. I move my eyes away from him, "What a mess," i whisper.

"I know right." I here her say. I look over, there she is, still the most gorgeous girl I have ever known,  I see the twins, my eyes start to fill with tears, I quickly wipe them away. 

I clear my throat, "Who is he?" I asked holding back my tears.

"That's Caleb... my boyfriend"

I nod, that's all I can do, I don't know what to say. She moved on, how can I blame her, I left with no warning. I stand awkwardly waiting to be invited in.

"Uhh, come in." 

I look at Caleb and look at her then at him giving her a questioning look.

"Just leave him, he'll be asleep for awhile." 

I nod and walk into the apartment.

I see them up close. He has my eyes and  my smile, she has my hair and nose. I can't help but smile. God I'm an idiot, leaving her to raise them by herself and now with another idiot. She broke the silence.

I see Caleb slowly get up stumbling over his two feet trying to gain his balance. I see pure hatred in his eyes.

"Um actually now's not a good time, I forgot I have to uhh, study for um school yeah so um see you around?" 

He looks around, confused 

"Oh.. um okay.. yeah, sure."  and with that he walks out the door.

I know she isn't telling me the truth, I know when she's lying and now is one of those times. But I ignore it.

"Oh.. um okay.. yeah, sure," is all I say and walk out the door.

I stand outside the door and wait, listen. I hear him yelling at her slamming things, breaking something made of glass. I hear the children... my children, crying and screaming. Meredith and Caleb wont stop arguing, and then she screams. I barge into the apartment. He's on top of her swinging at her, punching her, I see the fear in her face. I see the twins hiding behind the couch just watching, then covering their eyes, screaming and crying for their mom. I can't stop crying. I wipe away my tears.

"Caleb please stop calm down it's okay, nothing happened, please" she manages to get out. 

I run and tackle him, pinning him to the ground, "Meredith call the police now!" I demand. She slowly gets up getting out her cellphone. He's struggling, pleading for her not to call the police. She has tears in her eyes, and I can tell she doesn't know what to do. 

I take a deep breath, "Call, them," I say calmly.

"No don't, I love you I didn't mean it!" he yells

Crying and hands shaking, she puts the phone to her ear and starts to explain what happened.
