I took a sip of my drink and looked between Devon and Dominic. Were they really going to be friends? If so, I was going to have to find a way to be around Dominic. That might prove a little difficult. I never put much stock into someone being physically attracted to someone and that being the extent of it, but I was beginning to understand it now. With Devon, there was more than the attraction between us...same with all of the men that I've been involved with or liked. However, that wasn't the case with Dominic. "So, is the danger all eliminated now? Is there any possibility that someone can still come after us?" I asked Dominic. He would know this better than anyone and I really wanted to know either way. |

Dominic smiled, "I don't really discuss business with women. I learned from my father that it's better that way...but I guess...pretty much the danger is behind us. My brother set it up so he could be the most powerful person in Port Charles. He took care of anyone that would try to oppose him. He felt that Devon was the last threat so...he order a hit on Devon." Dominic swallowed his entire drink, "My brother tried to kill me. He actually had the gun pointed to my chest. If it weren't for my sister I...I wouldn't be sitting here...but at the same time my other brother Michael got hit by the bullet. He's in a coma right now...the doctor's said it may be permanent. And when I thought about all of the terrible things my brother did and wanted to do, including killing Devon, I decided to put a stop to it and all of this mob bullshit once and for all." |

I was ready to stand up and give Dominic hell for the comment that he made about not discussing business with women, but I was glad that I didn't. He actually did end up telling me what I wanted to know, after the sexist remark. He thought that the danger was behind us and that gave me a lot more hope that it really was. Besides getting my question answered, he told me some really personal stuff. "I'm sorry that your own brother tried to kill you. I know what it's like to have a sibling turn on you." I still hadn't forgotten what Jack Jr. did to break up my relationship with Dillon. He completely destroyed my life for no good reason whatsoever. He may not have tried to kill me physically, but he definitely tried to kill me emotionally. "I hope that everything and anything Mob related is over and done with, once and for all." |

"We can only hope," I said as I looked at the two people I felt I could really build a life with now. My girlfriend and my new friend. "If you need any help with your brother, I hope you'll let me know. I don't want to see either of you lose your lives this business." |

It didn't surprise me to hear Devon offer to help Dominic. That was just the type of person that Devon was. He was loyal and always tried to help the people that he cared about. Since he and Dominic were friends now, he'd naturally want to help him out. However, I didn't know if there was anything that he could do to help. |

"I appreciate the offer, but the only thing that can be done at this point is take the business away from my brother...and unfortunately I have to be the one to do it. After that...get rid of it. Enough about that though...what about you guys, how did you guys meet and get together, spill it!" I said with a smile as the main courses came out. My mind instantly shifted from thinking about Morgan back to thinking about Abby. I couldn't control my mind from wondering what it would be like with her in a bikini along the beach here at the island, with me coming up behind her holding her in my arms and kissing her. It's just something about her that is just beautiful. Devon is lucky as hell. I just wish...I got to stop thinking about her like that. |

I glanced over at Devon and then back at Dominic. I figured that I might as well explain how we met since I hadn't contributed a whole lot to any of the conversations that we had during dinner tonight. I figured that the less I knew about the exact business dealings, the better. "We met at the park. Devon had ditched his guards and I was out for a walk. We met randomly and talking just came naturally. Devon and I ended up going bowling together, but then his guards came back and we were separated. I didn't think that I'd see him again, but he happened to show up at my apartment one night. We officially got together at the wedding, so we haven't been together too long." Attraction to Dominic or not, I refused to mess things up with Devon. I finally had someone to lean on, depend on and to trust...and I wasn't messing that up. |

"If it wasn't for Abby, I wouldn't have had a reason to break away from this life," I told Dominic as I smiled at Abby. "She not only saved my life... she gave me reason to want to build something new and pure from the ashes of my dad's business." |

"Then you are not only beautiful but special. I smiled as I looked at Abby, That's great. I'm really happy for you guys You both are lucky to have found each other." They did look great together...that's why I need to stop thinking about her...still I know there was something in her first glance at me. |

I had to look away when he complimented me because I was afraid that I'd blush if I didn't. I really needed to snap out of this because I was starting to feel like I was back in high school again. This was wrong; I shouldn't be feeling like this around a guy that was *not* my boyfriend. "Thank you. We're taking things one day at a time and hoping for the best." I finally looked back at him and smiled slightly. He did seem to be sincere about being happy for the two of us, so I really needed to knock off whatever was going on with me. "So, Dominic, do you have a girlfriend?" It just came out and I couldn't believe it. Hopefully, he thought that I was just making conversation since were talking about Devon and I being boyfriend and girlfriend. |

For a minute I got lost. My mind went back to when Gia and I first got together at the party where Nikolas broke her heart, finding out she was pregnant, the whole Faison issue where we first revealed our love for each other and finally her leaving me after the miscarriage. I had tried to put it all behind me, but truth was I was broken. I hadn't allowed myself to love again. I drank the full content of my glass again, "No." |

"I'm sure that you'll eventually find someone." I took a sip of my drink and bit my lip. I felt a little awkward about asking that question now. I really thought that he'd say 'yes' and go on to describe what she was like. I figured that the business kept him from dating, but still...girls went for the 'bad boys' quite often. "I mean, someone will soon come into your life and you'll definitely know that she's special...and you'll eventually get together." |

"I'm sure there are plenty of girls in Westland that will catch your eye," I said as I took a drink. "Perhaps we could even double date sometime." I really hoped Dominic found someone who would fill that void like Abby filled mine. I was so lucky to have her, and I'd make sure I never stepped out of bounds or made her regret being with me. |

"Perhaps," I said still a bit lost in thought. I pulled out my PDA as if someone had sent an email, "You know what I think I've taken up enough of you guys alone time, so I'm going to excuse myself," I said as I wipe my mouth with my napkin and stood up from the table, "You guys are going to love the dessert..." |

"We are?" I asked with a raised brow. I didn't know what that comment mean, because it could go both ways. Hopefully it was the way where it was a nice bowl of strawberries and angel food cake because I hadn't had that in ages. "You don't have to leave on our account." I didn't want to be rude and make him feel like he had to leave. This was just one dinner and it wasn't like I'd be seeing a lot of Dominic in the future or anything like that. |

"Yes, Dominic, please stay," I added. I was glad to have made a friend like Dominic. I wondered if he'd be staying on the island with us for the next few days, although I'd really love to have some alone time with Abby. |

"I wish I could," I said, "but I need to take care of somethings and...you guys really need to be alone and...enjoy each other." With that I left quickly. My mind kept haunting me about the times Gia and I had together and how I lost her. Besides that I couldn't take my mind off of Abby even though I know that I should not be thinking about her. How selfish could I be! She looks at him with love in her eyes...but there's still something I can see in her eyes when she looks at me too. As I continued to walk to my room, rain started to fall...hard, "What the hell?" |

I reached over and took Abby's hand as Dominic left. I raised it to my lips and kissed it gently. "So, what do you think of our host?" I asked as I smiled at her. |

"He's...okay." I replied nonchalantly. Thankfully, Devon didn't pick up on anything. I needed to get off of this island and back to Westland. I was sure that once I got home, that I'd stop thinking like this and be back to my usual self. "I mean, I've seen worse. I expected him to be outright evil, but I can see why the two of you decided to be friends." |

"So, do you feel better about staying on the island now?" I asked. "Or would you rather be on the next flight home?" I go with her on whatever she wanted to do. I couldn't force her to stay in this place. I wasn't going to be one of those boyfriends who was controlling and dominant. I wanted us to make decisions together. |

When I got back to the room, I quickly packed, got in the car and headed for the airport. When I got there I boarded the plane and took off for Westland. I grabbed my laptop and tried to do some business but I sat back in my seat. The mention of a girlfriend and thoughts of Gia flooded my mind since dinner. I took my wallet out and took her picture out. I gently rubbed her face on the photo, "I can't do this anymore, Gia. You've held my heart even after you left me...it's time that I let the past go and move on. I loved you so much...but I'm letting go now. I hope that you have found happiness...Goodbye." |

"Honestly..." I looked over at him and sighed. Yes, this place was nice, but I didn't feel all that comfortable here. Perhaps I'd be fine on a different island, but I wasn't okay with remaining on the one that I was originally supposed to be held against my will on. "I'd rather be on the next flight to Westland. This island is beautiful, but after everything that has happened, I just want to go home." |

"Alright," I told her. "Let's go home." I leaned in and gently pressed my lips to hers. "What a way to start a new relationship, huh?" |

"I don't think any other relationship will ever have this kind of a start." I laughed and shook my head. Hopefully this was the worst of things and we'd have smooth sailing from here. Once we got back to Westland, I'd forget about Dominic's good looks and be able to focus on Devon. "The sooner we leave here, the better." I got up from the table and grabbed my purse. |

I had Dominic's men informed that we were leaving. I got the clothes we arrived in packed up for us as we made our way to the plane. "When we get home, I can't wait to kiss you for the first time as my girlfriend in the apartment." |
