I sighed in relief. "Oh, Dennis, you're a real life saver," I told him as he got down from the car and helped us in, tucking Amie in the back

Surprisingly, Dennis, the dangerous guy I was intent on not having anything to do with, was now one of my close friends. After that day at the bar, after rushing me to the hospital, he had waited for me till I woke up and since then he hung around. In fact, he more than hung around. He became a friend indeed. Even during my dark days, he'd always be there to uplift my mood.

Though it didn't take long before he confirmed my suspicions of his interest in me. I was happy to turn him down with the news of my pregnancy but it didn't deter him. He was ready to take me and my pregnancy without even probing me about who the father was.

His love and care touched my heart, if I was to be honest, but Aiden dealt with me real good. I wasn't ready to hop from a ruined four years relationship to another uncertain one as I still had doubts about his identity.

He was respectful of my decision but he stuck around and since then we've been good friends. And in the five years we've dined and wined together, I had never caught a whiff of anything dangerous about the young man.
