*Harry's POV*
I woke up to smell bacon steaming through the kitchen. Mom was up early. I turned over onto my stomach and swept my phone from the table beside my bed. I had an unread text.

Message: good morning:) so if your still planning on tonight it will be be, evelyn, and wyatt. Landon can't make it and I texted my dad your address but i'll doubt he'll show up. See you tonight xxx

I almost forgot. I still hadn't told my mom because she had been in bed by the time I got home last night. I grabbed a pair of jeans that were on the floor and pulled them on, not bothering to put on a shirt.

“Hey sweetie,” my mom said as I strolled in.

“Hey Mom, Addison is coming with either 2 or 3 people from her family tonight.”

“You finally asked? Thank goodness, i've been dying to meet them.”

I smiled, grabbing a piece of bacon and retreating back into my room to play my guitar- counting down the hours until i'd see Addi again.

*Addison's POV*
I was scurrying around trying to get ready before going to Harry's. I had curled my hair in loose ringlets that went just past my shoulders. I slipped on a simple cotton, navy and white striped dress (http://www.ae.com/web/browse/product.jsp?productId=0393_9193_410&catId=cat6190040) and threw on a denim jacket and booties as it was beginning to get a lot colder.

“You ready?” I yelled through the house, grabbing my bag, Chapstick, and my phone as I ran out of my bedroom. I quickly stopped to see Evelyn and Wyatt standing right outside my door. “Oh, okay, looks like it.”

We all erupted into laughter as we headed out to the car. Soon enough we had made it to Harry's house. We piled out of the car and headed out the front door. Before Evelyn could reach to press the doorbell Anne swung open the door with a loud, “Welcome, come on in!”

I peered around the side of the door to see Harry smiling sheepishly. I greeted Anne with a hug, her pulling me tight into her chest. I laughed as Harry blushed and mouthed, “sorry.” After hugging Anne Harry walked up to me and pulled me tight as well rubbing my back and whispering, “Here we go!”
I looked to my left to see Wyatt and Evelyn engulfed in another of Anne's hugs.

“Well, I see you have met Evelyn and Wyatt?” I laughed.

“Oh, they're so pleasant. They look just like you.”

“Oh, mum, you should see Landon. Wyatt is like a clone of him.” Harry replied his eyes wide open trying to show how serious he was.

We sat down and began to enjoy a delicious dinner. Anne had made pot roast with red potatoes, one of Wyatt's favorites. He was quiet, engulfing his food. We chatted about school and our hobbies. Every now and then I would catch Harry staring at me. I'd kick his shin with my foot and he'd turn his head quickly, trying to his flushed cheeks. Suddenly, we heard a loud knock on the door. Harry got up to go answer it. We all looked around anxiously wondering who it could be.

“Oh, hi Mr. Williams. Yes, Addison is here. Why don't you come in for a moment?” Harry replied nervously.

My stomach dropped, my dad was here? I haven't seen him in three weeks and I haven't talked to him in more than a month. What could he want. I saw Evelyn tighten up. Wyatt slid her chair slightly closer to his, wrapping his arm around the back of her chair. One of my dads legs appeared first, his jeans were ripped and dirty. He then stepped out completely. His hair was strewn and he had a scruffy, unkempt beard. He swayed, trying to keep his footing. Harry caught him pulling him into a chair in the living room. I looked away, I couldn't do it.

Anne got up from her seat and said to Evelyn and Wyatt, “Hey, lets go in here for a while, okay?” They both got up. Wyatt lifting Evelyn from her chair and following Anne.

“Where are they going, get them back here.” My dad slurred. He got up and began following them. Evelyn screamed. “Shhhhhh, it's okay E.” I heard Wyatt say.

Harry pushed him back by the shoulders. “I don't think that's a good idea,” he said. Harry looked at me and could see my fear. He walked towards me and intertwined his fingers in mine. He squeezed my hand and led me to the couch across from my dad. We sat down and he slowly moved his hand. I took a deep breath.

“Dad, what do you want? Why now, why here?” I asked, trying not to let him sense the fear in my voice.

“You think you're so mature. You think you're just like your mother; perfect, beautiful, loving, and caring. But you're not. You're worthless. You've dragged this guy along with you. For all he knows, your an innocent girl. But we all know your not.” he snarled. Looking to Harry he said, “Trust me, she's not worth it.”

A tear fell down my cheek and I looked away trying to overcome my emotions. I know it isn't true. It isn't true. It isn't true. It isn't true. Was it? I felt Harry's hand on my knee. He pulled me closer, my head rested on his shoulder.

“Get out of my house. Who do you think you are. You cannot talk to her like that. First off, we're not together. I'd like to be, but I respect Addison as a person so I am giving her time. She is beautiful, she is loving, she is caring. She is taking care of your children right now actually. She is perfect and I love her. Now get the hell out of my house.”

He stared for a minute. I didn't think he was going to react, but he slowly got up and walked out the front door.

*Harry's POV*
After she heard the door close she immediately broke down. She cried, silent sobs. Her body shook, her face turned red. He cheeks were wet with tears. I didn't want her siblings to hear so I lifted her off the couch and carried her into my room where I carefully laid her across the bed. I unzipped her shoes and set them in the bed next to her. She had pulled herself under my sheets so I tucked her in. I leaned close to her and kissed her on the cheek, “It will be ok. I promise.” I slowly walked out of my room closing the door as I left.

My mom and I had decided that I would go to the William's house with Wyatt and Evelyn because Landon was gone and Addi wasn't in a good condition to do so. My mom would stay at our house and take care of Addi. We were now at the Williams house and Wyatt had gone to bed. Evelyn had come down from her room crying 10 minutes after I put her to bed. She was scared, she had a nightmare so I let her stay with me.

She now had fallen asleep on my lap. Her head rested on my leg, her body sprawled across the couch, covered in a thick blanket.
