13 Meet the Parents

Go back and read the last chapter to refresh your memory! Sorry for not updating for a while! Love you all xxx

Cath's POV

"Hi mom..." She unexpectedly gives me a bone crushing, and I gladly go into her embrace. She's sobbing into my shirt, and I let her. I feel terrible for how much pain I've put her and my dad in. Harry stands there awkwardly while my mom and I are having a little reunion. I let go of my mom, and wrap my arm around Harry.

"Mom...this is my fiance, Harry," I say, smiling nervously, hoping that she'll approve, and won't blow up on me.

"Hi, Harry. It's so nice to meet you. I hope you've been taking good care of my daughter." She gives him a stern look, trying to scare him, and it's working so far. I hate when she does this, because she always jokes to scare them, but in this case, I don't want Harry to get a bad impression.

"Uhh...yeah. I have been. I wouldn't give her up for the world," he says shakily. I can see sweat running down his neck. I squeeze his arm, to reasure him, and let him know that I'm there for him.

"Well, come inside! Take a seat wherever you'd like. Make yourself at home, Harry." Harry and I sit next to each other on the couch, while my mom sits in her chair across from us.

"Where's dad? He's usually here..." I hope he's not drinking again. He could be out sleeping with some sl*t again. It hurts that he doesn't even like his family enough to stay faithful to us at the least. I wish my parents would just get a divorce, or go back to Focus. I think we'd all be a lot happier.

"Umm...he's out right now." She has tears in her eyes, so I reach out and hug her tightly again.

"It's okay mom. Harry and I are here for you now. We won't leave you. I love you so much mom." My mom usually doesn't cry this easily, but I guess things must have gotten really bad since I've been gone. I don't know how much longer my mom can take.

"Cath...your dad's been gone for a week now. I don't think he's coming back." She's sobbing now. "Ever." At this, I burst into tears, and hug her even tighter. I knew one day he'd leave us, but I didn't know it would hurt this bad. I hate my dad so much. I hope he never comes back, because if he does, I will ruin him. Just like he ruined my mom and I. I will make sure he will feel the pain we feel. I pull away from my mom, wiping away my tears.

"I'm gonna go make us some supper. I'll let you two get to know each other a little bit." I leave the room and look around in the kitchen for something to cook.

Harry's POV

"I'm sorry to hear that your husband left you. My dad left me too. I understand completely what you're going through." No one else knows about this, not even Cath. I'll tell her tonight, when we're alone. I have to tell her a lot of things actually. She doesn't know the truth about me. I'm finally able to tell someone my deepest, and darkest secrets. And I'm glad that Cath's the one I can tell. I haven't even known her that long, but I trust her with my life.

"Thank you Harry. I'm glad Cath has you to help her through this. Someone that's been through what we're going through now. I couldn't thank you enough for taking care of my daughter. It means so much to me, Harry."

"And I can't thank you enough for giving me Cath. I don't know what my life would be like without her. She's helped me become a better person. She's my light." After talking for a little while longer, getting to know each other better, we sit in a comfortable silence, and wait for Cath.

~~~~~
After eating our amazing lasagna Cath made us, we head upstairs to Cath's bedroom. We lay on the bed, holding each other, thinking about today's events. I have to tell her now.

"Cath?" She turns her head and looks at me.

"There's something I have to tell you." I hope this goes well...
