AN: This chapter is the start of a major Huddy story line. There is a flashback that is a bit dark but it has Paul and Cuddy. I wanted to do a flashback when Paul and Cuddy were together because I haven't done one yet. If you haven't read the chapters previous read them now before you read this one.

House and Cuddy...

House and Cuddy were in their bed. Cuddy was reading and House was watching the tv that he had insisted be put in if he was going to live there. Cuddy had been thinking all day about something that she couldn't get out of her head. The fact that it was the day three years ago she decided to make Paul leave and never come back. She had thought about all the times he had beaten her. But the one time he'd beaten her and also the kids was enough. Cuddy quickly pushed that thought away but still had the horrified look on her face. House looked at Cuddy while it was comercial.

" Cuddy, whats wrong"? House asked.

" I was just thinking about that today three years ago is when I told Paul to get out after he beat me and the kids". Cuddy said putting her book up.

" Babe don't think about that". House said giving her a kiss.

" House he lived here and Samantha called him dad because she didn't know until after Paul had left". Cuddy said.

" So, he is the past think about the present". House said.

" House, he is the father of three my children and I love him for that but it wasn't until after Samantha was born that he started beating me". Cuddy said.

" I love you and the kids can't you see that". House said.

" I know that but I got something in the mail from an attorney saying that Paul was taking me to court because he hasn't seen his kids in three years". Cuddy said.

" Do you have pictures of the bruises and cuts and the other things he did to you and the one time to the kids"? House asked.

" Yeah. But why"? Cuddy said.

" If you take them to court they will surely see that he is not right to be able to see his kids". House said.

" I never thought about that. I just took them just incase the kids school had been tipped off that there was a abuse in the household and took Paul and I to court". Cuddy said.

" There is nothing to worry about he can't even get visitation for Samantha or Rachel". House said giving her another kiss.

" I am glad that you moved in". Cuddy said turning the tv off and her light.

The flashback that changed everything...

Paul had come home drunk and in a very bad mood. Cuddy was in the living room with Jake, Andrew, and Jamie while Samantha was in her room. Paul barked Cuddy to go into their bedroom. Cuddy did as she was told and that was the start of the bad evening.

" Know who did you tell that I was beating you"? Paul said as he smacked Cuddy.

" I didn't tell anyone". Cuddy said as she got hit with another blow.

" You did tell someone. Because there wouldn't be police at my work asking everyone questions about me beating you". Paul said as he gave her another smack.

Samantha was crying but Jake, Andrew, and Jamie had to try and keep her quit just incase Paul decided that this was the night he was going to start hitting them. Samantha started to cry louder and then they heard another smack and then silence. They shut Samantha's door but that didn't hear that Paul had walked out of Cuddy's and his room and was walking towards Samantha's ready to give her a smack like her mom. Then the door opened and they all went silent. Paul walked and ripped Samantha by the hair with one arm and grabbed Jamie hard with the other arm. Both girls were wincing in pain. Paul through them down with by their mom and then grabbed Samantha again but this time by the arm. He through his hand up and started smacking her across the face and then he did something that scared her he through up against the wall and started punching her in the stomach. Then he through her down by her mother and then he grabbed Jamie and did the samething to her as he did to Samantha and then he felt a arm grab him he dropped Jamie and she crawled back over to her mom. Paul grabbed Jake and started beating the crap out of him and then Andrew tried to stop him but then Paul started doing the samething to Andrew as he did to Jake. As soon as he was done he grabbed Cuddy again and gave two more blows and set her down. Cuddy stood up and faced Paul.

" Paul, I want you out of my house and gone far away from here". Cuddy said.

" Woman you need me. You can't get rid of me because I hit you and the kids". Paul said.

" Get out or I will call the cops". Cuddy said.

" Go ahead call". Paul said.

Cuddy grabbed the phone and called 911 and as soon as the cops had gotten there Paul was gone. Samantha, Jamie, Jake, and Andrew had to be rushed to hospital because of their injuries. Samantha and Jamie both had internal bleeding but survived. Jake and Andrew had a dislocated shoulder. And Cuddy had a black eye a cut on her cheek and a swollen nose. Paul left them and headed to New york City so he didn't have to deal with Cuddy or the kids.

Next morning...

Cuddy had taken a shower and gotten ready. Samantha and Jamie did their same morning routine. Jake and Andrew were almost finished packing so they could move out this weekend to college. Rachel was already up in her crib giggling and cooing. House had gotten up and showered as well.

" Hey mom do think dad or you could take me to Carli's birthday party"? Samantha asked as she grabbed her sister from her crib.

" Yeah. I am sure either one of us could take you". Cuddy said tapping on her door to make sure House was up.

" Come on House I have to use the bathroom and Jamie is hogging the main one". Cuddy yelled.

" Alright come in". House said.

" You are dressed and showered very impressive". Cuddy said and give him a kiss.

" Why do all of the sudden you have to pee all the time"? House said.

" I just have had to go to bathroom a lot lately". Cuddy said shutting the door.

" Unless you are pregnant". House said.

" I am not pregnant. Come on House get real". Cuddy yelled. Little did he know that Jamie wasn't hogging the bathroom Cuddy was taking a pregnancy test.

" Cuddy, why are taking so long"? House asked.

" Shut the bedroom door and I will show you". Cuddy said smiling. House did as he was told and shut the door and waited for Cuddy to come out.

Cuddy came out smiling holding something.

" What is that"? House asked confused.

" Look at it". Cuddy said as she showed him.

" Oh my god you are pregnant". House said.

" Who is the father". House asked.

" His name is Dan and we plan on running away together and raising our own family together". Cuddy smirked.

" Very funny". House said giving her a kiss.

" I guess that means that there is spawn number two on the way". Cuddy said giving him another kiss.

" I think the name Peak fits the spawn". House smirked.

" Ha ha I am not naming my child Peak". Cuddy said.
