Brent Williams, you're coming with me. You're under arrest. I play these words in my head over and over again. What could he have possibly done wrong? I keep thinking about this over and over again. I want my husband back. I think about cutting, but I decide against it. I promised. I will keep my promise, even though he is gone.

***Two Weeks Later***

"Brent Williams, you are here to defend your side of the story. You have been brought upon a jury for the murder of Damon Augueste. We were informed that you killed him on November 23, and we will now here your side of the story." The judge continues to talk, but I zone him out. I can't bare to hear the story of my life being told to a judge. "Christina!" I look up, my thoughts cut short. "Sorry, um, what was the question?" The judge looks at me with a questionable look. "Did your ex-boyfriend really beat you?" I nod, unable to speak. I'm afraid that I will choke up, and start crying. The judge starts talking to Brent again, but all I hear out of what he is saying, is that Brent has to serve two more weeks in the federal prison.

My grandmother offered to baby sit the kids until Brent was out but I couldn't do that. So here we sit, in Brent's home, waiting for him to come back. I would say that I didn't want him to kill Damon but that would be lying. I can't lie about something like that. I'm glad that he is gone because if he wasn't, I would be the dead one. That would be like him...doing me a tiny favor.

Brent's P.O.V

I pace the floor of my prison cell, thinking about Christina an the kids. I hope that they are ok. I don't regret killing Damon. Every fiber in my body was relieved when he was gone. Christina couldn't get hurt anymore, and that's all that mattered. I can only hope that I didn't hurt her by getting rid of him.

Christina's Moms P.O.V

I found out today that my daughter had twins. How I didn't know this before, I don't know. I wish I would have changed the way that I lived. I wish I would have been a better father. I'm going to find her, and love her like she really is my daughter.

Sorry that it's short, but I'm running short on ideas. Thanks for understanding. Love you guys!
