"Ugh I hate patrol" I muttered as I walked with Seth back to my house after our shift.

"It's not that bad" He said. I rolled my eyes. "Yes it is, we never get any sleep, and hardly get to do anything" I muttered. 

He wrapped his arms around my waist, planting soft kisses on my neck. I giggled and pulled my neck away.

He laughed and wrapped his hand in mine.

I could feel a tingle go up my arm.

I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder. 

"You know what I was thinking about?" He asked, a soft expression on his face. "Ya?" I responded softly. 

"Just about my dad" He whispered.

My heart felt a sting, a sick feeling in my stomach.

"I wanna visit his grave" He stopped walking and turned away, starring up at the grey sky. I gave a small sigh, I know it hurts him to talk about his dad, it hurts me as well. His dad was like mine. 

"If you want we can go" I suggested, resting my hand on his shoulder. He huffed and looked down at me. "Really?" He asked. I gave a small smile. "Ya I want to go too" I said. he smiled putting his arm around my shoulder.

I leaned into his chest.

"Come on then" He said.

I stayed silent as walked to the local cemetery. Last time I was here was a couple months ago. It hurts Seth to come here sometimes.

I can remember the day of Harry's death.

Seth sitting on the floor, his face in his hands, letting out sobs.

Leah in the corner, angry, with tears streaming down her cheeks.

Sue.

Sue took it worse.

She sat at the kitchen table, her face emotionless.

You couldn't see it on the outside.

But you knew in the inside her poor soul was dieing.

A single tear fell down her cheek, falling lightly on the table.

I didn't know what to do.

I stood there, watching the broken family in front of me.

Tears slowly streamed down my cheeks.

My heart ached.

My stomach flipping.

I slowly walked to Seth.

He looked up once, tears stinging his eyes before turning back down.

I dropped to my knees, wrapping him in a hug.

Holding onto him like it was the last time.

He slowly responded by wrapping his arms around me.

Burring his tear stained face into my shoulder.

Sobbing as he held me tight.

So tight it was it felt like I couldn't breathe, but I didn't care.

I rested my head on his shoulder.

My tears wetting his neck, his wetting my shoulder.

I remember Sam walking in through the front door, walking to Sue, apologizing over and over again.

Leah stormed out of the house, leaving everything behind.

Seth softly whispering 'Why?'

 I shook my head, trying to forget the heart breaking memory.

We slowly walked to where his dad rested.

Seth stopped in front of the stone.

At first no reaction.

But within a blink he fell to his knees, tears slowly falling.

He touched the engraved words on the stone.

Harry Clearwater

Beloved Husband, Father, and Friend

R.I.P

I couldn't hold my tears, I knelt down hugging Seth as I softly cried.

I can remember the times Seth and I would go fishing with him.

"There's no fish here" I muttered as I watched my fishing rod.

"Your just mad because I catched more than you" Seth teased. 

I rolled my 13 year old eyes.

"Patience Chelsea" Harry said, not taking his eyes off his fishing rod.

He jumped up at the sudden movement coming from the fishing rod.

He took deep breathes as he reeled in the fish.

Seth smiling with admiration.

I smiled as Harry caught the fish and it was a big one too.

"Nice job dad" Seth gave him a high five.

I rolled my eyes.

"Men" I muttered.

That earned a small laugh from Harry.

"Now this one's going to make a great fish fry" He said licking his lips. I giggled and sat back down on my chair.

My heart stinged at the memory, one of my favorites.

I also remember him giving us advice on almost everything. Even boys.

He was always such an amazing person.

So caring and understanding. 

Always loving Sue, Seth, and Leah. Even when Seth rebelled and Leah bitched.

He had to be one of the most amazing father's on earth.

Mine was an asshole. 

He left when Sam and I where so young. 

Sam only five and I still in my mom's stomach.

Unlike Sam who has vague memory's, I never even got to meet him. 

It always hurt me growing up, not having a father, but Sam and Harry took his place. 

I wiped away my tears, leaning my head on Seth's shoulder.

"He was always amazing" I whispered.

Seth managed to give me a small smile. "I know" He responded, sadness in his voice.

"You know he raised the most amazing guy in the world" I said. Seth smiled, letting a small laugh. 

"You think so?" He asked.

I smiled.

"I know so" 

I kissed his cheek.

Thanks Harry...
