9:00pm

Catherine sat with Lindsey on her bed watching televison when Catherine decided it was time to bring up the topic of Eddie.

"Linds"

Lindsey looked up at her mother " Yeah mommy"

Catherine sighed " You're Daddy called me today and he wants to see you"

Lindsey sat up in the bed and turned off the tv "What did you say"

Catherine shook her head " I didn't, I thought I should ask you first."

"I don't want to." Lindsey laid it out for her " I don't care what he wants, he hurt us and I don't want to see him, he's not my dad, and we don't need him."

"Lindsey calm down, are you sure you don't want to think about it first"

Lindsey shook her head " NO" she screamed " I hate him for what he did to you and I dont' want to see him"

"Okay..okay." Catherine said trying to calm her" you don't have to, I just wanted to give you a choice."

Lindsey turned the tv back on " Mommy? Are you letting Daddy come back home"

Catherine didn't know what to say " Do you want him to come back home"

Lindsey shrugged her shoulders " I miss him, mommy" she paused " Don't be mad okay"

Catherine pulled her daughter into a hug " I'm not mad baby, he's you're dad, I wouldn't expect you not to miss him. Would you be angry if daddy came here so we could talk"

Lindsey shook her head " Mommy, maybe I want to see him, only for a little while, but I want to live with you, you're not going to make me live with him are you"

Catherine nodded " Not unless you want to."

Lindsey shook her head again " I don't." she yawned " I am going to go to bed now, mommy." I love you. Good night" she jumped up and hugged her mother and ran off to bed.

10:00pm

Catherine had watched Lindsey sleep silently for the last half hour before leaving her room and heading off to bed her self. But again like the past two nights the phone began to ring.

"Eddie" she answered

"I just thought I would remind you that I want to see my daughter tommorow, and you and I need to talk. Cath I need you and I am so sorry about what happened before, I never meant the things I said, I never meant to hurt you, I was drunk then but I am working on my drinking and I will never raise my fist to you again, you have to believe me." Eddie sobbed on the other end

"Eddie, It's late, I 'll talk to you in the morning." she replied

"Can't I come see you now? I miss you" Eddie begged " Please, I daon't think I can go another night"

"No Eddie! I You can't come right now" she paused waiting for him to turn and start threatning. " Eddie I have to go."

"Okay." he replied " I love you"

Catherine sighed at his words and hung up the phone.

2:00am

A dark figure walked into Catherine's bedoom and stood over her bed.

Catherine's eyes fluttered opened when she felt his presence. She knew it was Eddie but what she didn't know its who he gotten in her home, with out breaking in.

He stood over her thinking she was still asleep as he stripped off his shirt and pants and climbed into the bed...their bed, just like old times.

He moved his body close to her and wrraped his arm around her taking her hand in his. He genlty kissed her cheek and whispered in her ear

"I'm home sweetie, We're going to be one happy family."
