The Truth About Us

The twins begged for us all to sleep in the same bed, but I drew the line. Harry agreed to sleep on the couch and the twins demanded to sleep on the ground next to him. I ended up putting two air mattresses on the ground for Harry and the twins to sleep on. They both gladly accepted. I stood there, staring at Harry who was trying to sleep, and the twins. Hayley was sleeping with her head on his chest while Henry used Harry's arm to sleep on, and hold onto. I stood there, glad my kids found a father figure, however upset it was Harry.I continued gazing at them until I finally took a picture. Harry's eyes opened wide and seemed confused where he was. He attempted to move then gave up when the twins continued to lay on him stiffly. He opened his mouth and yawned quietly. He glanced up at me and furrowed his brows. He went to talk and gave up most likely not wanting to wake up the twins. I decided to take the first step.

"Why did you do everything those past years?" I whispered barely audible. Harry pondered over this, thinking over his words wisely.

"I was an idiot. I believed in the words of a liar." He murmured, slightly moving the twins so the fell onto a pillow and still slept. He tiptoed over to me and towered over my tiny figure. When did he get that tall? When did he learn to speak to me with such authority? Maybe time did change him. Maybe time changed everything.

"The words of Derek?" I ask not sure what he meant. He touched my hair making the hairs on the back of my neck stick upwards.

"Sort of. I believed he would give me what I wanted. I believed what I was doing was right. I believed in Sarah, that she wasn't just using me, and look where I am now all from believing those three idiots." He chokes.

"You? Your apart of that? Why didn't you just give up? Stop seeing Sarah?" I question holding back the tears. He touched my cheek.

"I was apart of that. I thought I was superior and I thought you meant nothing to me." He whispers before leaning down and kissing me. At first I refused to show him any affection. Then, I gave in, putting my hands to his cheeks. He stopped and gazed into my eyes. It'd been forever since he last done that, truly look at me.

"What about Sarah?" I ask not ready to trust him again.

"We never were dating. She's just obsessive, she likes to be that way. She acts like we're a couple though, I guess it's just in her nature to act. Like the whole world is her set, and everyone is willing to play along, like me." He whispers into my ear before gently kissing my neck. I wanted to melt, to take him there, to run away from it all and just be in his arms.

"But Preston." I reply. He pulled back from his kisses and stared me in the eyes angrily.

"Here I am, willing to be the father of your child, to give up everything to be yours, and you just stand here thinking of him?" Harry fumed quietly. I didn't understand how someone could be so quiet yet so scary.

"I've been with him for years, I can't just erase that." I respond staring at the twins. I was willing to focus on anything except him. He turns my cheek, making me face him.

"I know that I shouldn't have waited this long, but here I am, ready for anything in our way." He mutters. I backed away. I kept on moving until I reached my door an opened it. The night breeze made me shiver, however Harry and I needed to talk. I signaled him to come over and he did. I left, closing the door. I didn't bother locking the door behind me, I knew I would come back quickly.

"Why are we out here?" Harry asks letting his loud voice come out.

"So we can talk and let out our steam." I laugh. I walked ahead of Harry and rub my arm.

"I just don't understand." He mutters. I slightly swivel my head to see him watching his steps. I slow down and keep at his pace. I accidentally skimmed his hand and awkwardly flicked my hand back.

"Well, I formed a relationship when you left. You can't just expect me to come running back to you." I respond. He stops and turns to me, his back to the road.

"I thought you would understand." He mumbles. I felt the fumes hitting me. He thought I'd be his forever. Well I hate to break it to him but I'm not.

"Harry, you were the one who lied to me." I broke out in a scream. I brought myself together quickly, taking in a quick breathe.

"Sorry I messed up. Thought it was a normal thing for humans to make mistakes." He yells. I shushed him when I heard a dog start to bark. "Oh course, just shut me up." He whispers. I slap him.

"It's normal to make a mistake like you did, and when I went back to you, you just ruined my image of you completely! Yet, her I am, still wanting you." I made the last part un audible. I heard a door opened and looked down about a house to see Preston walking out of his house. Oh, that's right, he lives a few doors down from me.

"What's going on?" Preston whispers walking over to us. I started fidgeting as Harry started walking away.

"Harry wait!"
