A note for Abby

"I'm sorry," I said. I didn't mean to bring up bad memories. I'd always wanted a brother, and it seemed like a horrible thing for someone to do something like this. "So, you're not in a relationship right now?"

I wasn't going to try anything, even if she was available. As attractive as I found Abby, I didn't want to do anything to push her away.

"No, I'm not."

I replied with a sigh. I was beginning to think that me and love just did not mix. I had my one relationship back in Salem, which didn't last long at all, then there was my long crush on Max...which never went anywhere. Then there was Dillon...which ended real badly.

"I have the worst track record when it comes to relationships."

"At least you've had the chance to have them," I told her. "I've been sheltered and protected my whole life. I've never had the chance to get to know, or love someone. That day at the bowling alley... that was the first time I'd ever kissed anyone. Hell, it was the first time I'd ever been that close to a girl."

My eyes widened in surprise. I knew that Devon was sheltered, but I didn't think that he was *that* sheltered. I felt really bad for him because it wasn't fair to have his youth basically taken away from him. Not only did he miss out on a lot, but he was forced to grow up real fast.

"Once you hand over your family's business, you'll be free to enjoy your life. You can go out, find real love and just live for once....and I don't mean exist, I mean live."

"Yeah," I said as I looked at her. "That day you took me bowling... that was the first time I'd ever really had fun with anyone. I want to do that again. I want to go out and have fun with you when I'm able to again. If you want to, that is."

"Of course I'd want to."

I replied with a smile. I really had fun with him and I'd love to again soon. I took the boiling water off of the stove and poured it into two mugs. I then put the cocoa mix in both glasses and mixed it up with the water. Lastly, I put the marshmellows in.

"The hot chocolate is ready."

"Cool," I said as I watched her from the living room. I couldn't wait to relax in front of the fire with her.

I grabbed both mugs and went into the living room. I set the mugs on the coffee table and turned towards Devon. I then walked over to the fireplace and quickly made a small fire in it. Once the fire was burning, I went over to the coffee table and picked up both mugs. I handed Devon his mug and smiled.

"I hope you like it."

The last thing that I wanted was to make bad hot chocolate and have him force himself to drink it to spare my feelings.

I took a sip. "It tastes great."

I moved over a bit so she could sit down next to me. I liked having her near me.

I sat down next to Devon and smiled. I was relieved that he liked the hot chocolate. Now he didn't have to pretend to like it just to spare my feelings. That was a huge load off.

"I'm glad that you like it."

"I like everything you do," I told her with a smile. "You're just this... amazing person, Abby. I've never met anyone like you. It's like my entire world changed the second I met you."

I smiled brightly, fighting off the urge to blush. I had no idea that meeting me did so much for him. Since I met Devon, I had a reason to look forward instead of reflecting back on the past.

"I was in a really bad place when I met you. You showed me that it is possible to move on from a love."

"That's good," I said as I sipped my hot chocolate. "I hope you can find love again one day, Abby. You deserve a guy who loves, and respects you. Someone who'll treat you like a queen."

"Thanks,"

I replied with a small smile. I really wanted to find a guy that wouldn't cheat on me, would know that I existed and wouldn't have a past that I wasn't okay with. Sadly, all of my prior boyfriends/crushes had at least one of those issues.

"I think that I am not hopeless when it comes to that. However, another failed romance and I might call it quits for a bit."

I added with a small laugh.

"Then hopefully the right guy comes along for you," I said with a smile as I took a drink. I hoped that whatever guy came into her life treated her right.

"I definitely hope that I find 'Mr. Right' real soon."

I replied with a soft sigh. So far, I wasn't having much luck with that. I definitely thought that Dillon could be 'the one' for a while there. Now, well, I wasn't so sure...especially since I was having such a hard time getting over his past with Lucas.

"Do you think that I am a hyprocrite?"

I asked out of the blue.

"No," I told her. "Something bad happened to alter your perception of this Dillon guy. I mean, I know I'd have a hard time seeing my girlfriend having sex with someone else, even if it happened long ago. That's... kind of provided I ever get a girlfriend, thought."

I was really glad that Devon understood where I was coming from and didn't think of me as a huge hyprocrite. I knew that Dillon probably thought that I was one. I told the guy that I accepted his past relationship with Lucas, a guy, and when I see footage of him and Lucas sleeping together...I freaked out and ended things.

"A sweet, caring guy like you is destined to find a girlfriend. Whoever captures your heart will definitely be a lucky woman."

I smiled as I reached over and touched her hand. "I hope that she's as smart and beautiful as the woman I'm looking at right now."

I looked down at our hands and slowly lifted my gaze back to his face. Devon was really sweet and he made me feel like everything was going to be okay; that I could have a happy life, even if Dillon was no longer in it.

"You are too kind and too charming not to find someone who makes you happy. Any woman would be lucky to be with you."

"I don't want just any woman," I told her. "I want someone I can trust, who's attractive, and charming... someone like you."

"There are a lot of women who fit that description."

I smiled and shrugged. I wasn't the only one who was like that, but I couldn't help but be flattered by the compliment that he just gave me.

"But I'm honored that you see me like that."

"But only one that was kind enough to take a mobster's son in on Christmas Eve," I said as I leaned in and kissed her lips gently, hoping she wouldn't hit me.

Just like last time, I wasn't expecting to be kissed. However, just like last time, I kissed him back. I scooted over closer to him and deepened our kiss. I hadn't felt this close to somebody since Dillon and I first started getting to know each other. With Devon, I felt hope...and other things that I didn't think I'd feel for another guy.

I lingered on her lips for a moment before I pulled away.

"I care about you, Abby," I told her honestly. "When I'm finished with getting away from my father's business... I'd like to try to build a relationship with you."
