I laughed as she said that. I held her hand as we started walking along the beach. "Yeah, I really hate cold weather," I told her as I squeezed her hand gently. "You know, if it weren't for the guards, this trip would almost be... romantic." |

"Well, aren't you the optimist." I laughed and looked over at him. He made a valid point though; without these guards, it would be just us and the beach. What beach on a tropical island wasn't romantic? Too bad the guards had to be here because they really made me nervous. I didn't know what they were up to and I hated being in the dark about something, let along a life and death situation. "If we can't get away, how long do you think they will keep us here?" |

"Hopefully just until we can raech an agreement about the property," I told her. "I'll let the property go at a fair price, then we can go home, and I can take you a beach without the armed guards." |

As the plane touched down I sighed. I was becoming what I hated. I was doing mob business. I never wanted to do this. I promised my father that I wouldn't do this, but I had to. Somehow this has got to come to an end and this was the only way to do it. I just hope that I don't have any problems with Devon Chase. The files that Benny sent me didn't have much on Devon. There was a lot of information on his father but not Devon. I didn't know whether Devon would be crazy or dangerous or anything, but whatever it was the island was definitely a controlled atmostphere. With in moments I found myself at the same cabana's that Devon and his friend were staying. The servants brought me a fresh change of clothes and shoes. It was refreshing to finally get out of the clothes I had on. My shirt still had Michael's blood on it. After I changed I sent a message to the guards to give to Devon that I wish to meet him in his cabana as soon as possible. |

I got Dominic's message and kissed Abby's cheek. "I won't be long, I promise, just remember that whatever happens, I'm not going to let anyone hurt you," I let the guards lead me to the cabana where Domininc was waiting. I just wanted this to be over with as soon as possible. |

I sat down on the couch and laid out all the forms that needed Devon's signature on the coffee table. I soon as I got comfortable, there was a knock on the door, "Mr. Corinthos, Devon Chase to see you." "Thank you show him in" Once he walked in the guards frisked him immediately and found nothing. "As a sign of trust frisk me as well," I said as the guards hesitantly frisked me. Once they were done, "Bring me a Mojito please, can I get you anything Mr. Chase?" |

"No, thank you," I said as he I looked at the man. "Let's get down to business, shall we? I want to get rid of the last of this property and get back to my girl." The sooner I severed the last tie to my dad's business, the better. I just wanted to be a normal guy for once. |

Although I liked the idea of us getting this over with, I was a little suspicious of why he was so quick to sign over everything, "Just like that? You want to turn over your father's holdings...I'm sorry your holdings just like that? Not even a question or a bargin or anything...is this some kind of a set up?" |

"Well, I was going to sell the holdings to you," I told him. "But, Mr. Corinthos, I've never known a normal life. I spent the last 18 years under constant surveillance and armed guards. I never had a true friend until I met Abby. She changed my world, and I need to get out of this for her." I'd be damned if Abby was brought into this world. I wouldn't taint her innocence with this violence. |

I looked him in the eye. He was totally serious. He lived my life. Well maybe Michael's life. I had gotten away from it til my mother was murdered. "Wow, you just described me, and my sister and brother's lives. We also had guards over us telling us what we could or could not do. Well, I actually more so inherited the life...I hate it!" |

"So you know why I'm desperate to leave it all behind," I told him. "Look, I'm sorry about your father. My dad died in that shootout, too, and it was a real eye opener. I don't want to end up like that, fighting over territory. It looks like we have a lot in common, Mr. Corinthos. That kind of makes me feel a lot better about unloading the last of this territory." |

I stood up and walked away from the couch for a moment, "I wasn't here when that happened. I left and moved to Europe. I loved my father but I hated this life. My brother used to be a decent kid but he went through a lot...I believe it got worse when my father was killed...now he's running the business without feeling. I actually feel as you feel. I don't want any of this really, but I have to stop Morgan." |

I watched Devon leave and then sat down in the sand. I picked up some rocks and threw them into the ocean. I could feel the guards' eyes on me, so I knew that I didn't have the opportunity to get away right now. Besides, I wasn't going to leave Devon here. We were in this together and I refused to abandon him. "I'm not going anywhere, you know." I told the guards and rolled my eyes. I hated feeling like people were staring at me, which was the case with these men. I searched the sand for another rock to throw and found a seashell instead. I inspected it and smiled slightly. It was rather beautiful, so I decided to keep it. |

"I'm sorry about your brothers," I told him. I didn't have any siblings, but if I did, I'd probably feel the same way about wanting to protect them. "If I could, I'd help you, but I'm sure you know as well as I do that once you get far enough into this business, there's only way out." Something both of our fathers learned the hard way. |

"Well actually...you are helping me. Morgan owns nearly everything. This last piece that you owned would have literally given him Port Charles...I'm not going to let that happen. I'm going to slowly gain control of everything he has and then I'm going to sale it off. I'm tired of my family living like this. The power has totally corrupted my brother...he actually tried to kill me at the wedding...had the gun pointed right at my chest...that's why I know I have to stop this...and that's why I wanted to get to you first...of course you're nothing like I aspected...you-you're actually quite decent and we actually have the same thought process about this mob stuff." |

"Well, you're not really anything like I expected, either," I told him. "I expected someone threatening and intimidating. This mob stuff... it's pointless. I don't care about land, or property. Hell, I've learned to live off the streets after my Dad died so his guards wouldn't find me and force me into a position like Morgan. But... what are you going to do if Morgan opposes you? If what you say is true, the next time he tries to kill... he might succeed." |

I sighed. It was a fact that I tried to put out of my head. If Morgan thought of killing me before, this would definitely put me in the line of fire again, "Somewhere deep inside my brother is still in there...but...I'll cross that bridge when i get to it. However if he's attention is on me because of this transaction, you and your...friend will be in the clear. You are free to lead the normal life that you wanted and I'm OK with that. You kinda remind me of him a little, when he was more innocent. Look, I've taken up enough of your time already, brought you here probably scared you out of your mind...I'm sorry," I took out my PDA, "I'm prepared to transfer a ridiculous amount into your account for the rest of the holdings." I chuckled a little as I wrote down a large dollar amount on a posted note and gave it to Devon, "On the condition of course that you consider me...a friend - no more Mr. Corinthos, it's Dominic." |

"Wow," I said as I looked at the amount he was offering. It was three times as much as I was going to let it go for. "You must really want this property bad, Mr. Cor- Dominic." |

I glanced at my watch and bit my lip. I wondered how long Devon's business meeting was going to take, because I couldn't help but be a little worried that something had happened to him. I turned around and met the eyes of one of the guards. I sighed heavily and turned back around. I really didn't feel like talking to these men, so I would just wait a couple of more minutes and then go look for Devon myself. |

"How much longer do we have to remain on the island?" I asked. "My girlfriend... she really doesn't like the whole armed guard situation." |

"You guys can leave whenever you want. Again I'm sorry for bring you here under the circumstances that I did, but I wanted to make sure that Morgan didn't get to you, he was definitely out for your blood. When would you guys like to leave?" |

"As soon as I can get back to her," I said. "I mean, this is a lovely island, but... it's not exactly the best place for a new couple to start their relationship." |

I got a confirmation that the amount had been transferred into Devon's account as I listened to Devon talk about his girlfriend, "New relationship huh, congratulations...actually I would figure this would be a perfect spot for a new relationship...tropical island...ahh minus the guards. I could tell them they are no longer required and you guys could have the run of the island." |

"Well, I'd have to discuss it with her," I told him. I didn't want Abby to stay here against her will. "But it might be fun. Will you be staying here, too?" |

"I...actually have to get back to Westland and deal with Morgan, but I would love it if we could all have dinner together...no guards...no guns I swear! Again I'm hoping that with our commonalities, we could be friends." |
