As soon as Mary had said 'he's back' I knew she had meant her father. I told her not to worry or I'll be worried sick for her. She tried smiling but it didn't work so well, I knew she'd at least try. Danny also told her that as long as we were around no one was going to hurt her ever again. A few days later I had told Delinda who had already figured out somehow that her father and I were getting married. That girl knows more about me then I do. As I was patrolling the floor I had noticed I always seemed to be wherever Mary happened to be. I picked up my ringing phone and automatically glanced up at the security camera.

"This is Sonny;" I spoke into the phone.

"Yeah Sam I suggest you take a break you have a doctors appointment in an hour and I suggest you get ready," Ed replied, I scowled and knew he would have a smile on his face.

"You do know I could have made that appointment myself," I said putting my free hand on my hip.

"I know, it's just that now that you're having a baby I'm twice as worried as I was about you. And now with this whole Mary thing, my hair is going greyer I can feel it," he said.

"I'm sorry Ed I know, am I meeting him here or am I going to see him?" I asked.

"I pulled some strings and he's coming here so if I could get you to come to my office that would be nice," Ed told me.

Before responded I glanced over at Mary, "all right then, I'll be right up."

"She'll be all right Sam," he said before hanging up; I then looked back at Mary and headed to his office. As I saw Danny, I put a comforting hand on his shoulder seeing he was watching her as I walked off.

The next hour went by fast and soon enough the doctor had arrived. He had checked me and the baby out and said we were doing fine. As I seen him out of Ed's office I heard a gun being loaded, I turned around and noticed Ed putting bullets into a magnum. I gave him a confused look and looked out the window. I turned around to see Danny holding Mary in his arms; I knew what he was going to do.

"Ed please you can't do this not to Mary, especially not to me," I pleaded.

"Sonny don't worry you know I would never leave you behind," he replied while putting the gun in his belt. He then walked over giving me a hug, he then walked me over to the couch and letting me sit down first. There he explained everything to me that Mary's father had done to her. At the end he wiped the few tears that escaped my eyes off of my cheeks. Ed then kissed my forehead and pushed some hair behind my ear.

"I've already got plans for us; we'll be going somewhere far away."

"You know Ed I don't care where we go as long as I'm with you," I told him.

This caused him to smile and kiss me again, I looked out to see Danny taking Mary downstairs glancing back at the office.

The afternoon faded real fast and the sun had almost set completely. Twice was the amount of time Mary's father had asked if he could see her. The third time he asked I set security on him, and when Mary heard what I had done she thanked me. I told her that it was no problem she'd do the same for her. Then she disappeared out the door, I looked at my watch it was the end of my shift. I met up with Danny as I was walking to the parking

"You're in a hurry Danny," I said slightly out of breath.

"I could say the same for you, Ed's not even out here yet," just as he finished his sentence Ed's Aston Martin pulled up beside me.

"As you were saying," I smiled getting in the passengers seat.

We were driving lazily as dark set in; we pulled in a parking lot in front of a motel. I noticed Mary a little ways from her father, a gun in hand. I also noticed Danny standing not to far from his car. It went all too quickly and I heard two gunshots and her father went down.

"Go!" I yelled and Ed sped off back to our house, at that moment I had packed our things just in case we had to leave at any moment.
