"It's my fault because I got involved with that bastard" answered Whitney sobbing.
Seeing how upset Whitney was, Dave pulled her in for a tight embrace.
Dave was trying his best to calm her down when Grace and Jay walked.
"Hey sweetie, are you alright?" asked Grace placing her hand on Whitney's back.
Pulling herself from Dave's embrace, Whitney replied, "Peachy freakin' keen."
"I don't know about the rest of you but the night is still young and I don't really want to go back to the hotel. We could go clubbing or something" said Dave.
"That's sounds like fun. I could use a stiff drink after what just happened" replied Whitney.
"Before we go anywhere, there's something I need to tell you. You know Randy's thing tried to take a swing at me" said Grace.
Chris walked out of the restaurant and right to where they all were standing.
"If Randy messes with you again, I will kill the bastard because no one messes with you and gets away with it, unless it's Amy" said Chris putting an arm around Whitney's shoulders.
"Like I'm scared of Amy. I can take her out just like that" said Whitney stepping away from Chris and snapping her fingers.
"Oh really" a voice said from behind her.
Whitney turned around and said, "Hi Ames. Have I told you today that I love you. Please don't kick my ass."
At that very moment Randy, Michelle, Chris, Jackie, Adam, and Dawn walked out of the restaurant and they saw Whitney back away from Amy.
"It looks like we found someone that Whitney is scared of" said Michelle.
"You know, I used to wonder what it was that you had that I didn't but now I know. You like to pick fights with people and I don't. And it has come to my attention that you took a swing at Grace and that is a big mistake because she is like my sister and she happens to be pregnant. You took a swing not at my sister but a pregnant woman so I'm daring you to take your best shot at me" said Whitney.
"Oh and by the way, I'm not asking you to take a shot at me, I'm telling you too" added Whitney.
Michelle went to take a shot at Whitney but she ducked making Michelle miss. Whitney turned around and punched her in the mouth. When Whitney saw that Randy looked like he was gonna take a swing at her, so she just decked him.
"You two deserve each other. Two freakin' whores" said Whitney.
Looking at Randy then at Dave, Whitney added, "As for moving on…" as she walked towards Dave and mouthed 'play along'. When she reached where Dave was standing, she gently pulled his head towards hers and captured his lips for a long sweet kiss.
"Oh my god. What the hell is she thinkin'?" asked Grace. Jay and Chris looked shocked.
"How's that for movin' on?" asked Whitney once she broke the kiss.
"Ready to go?" she asked trying to get Dave's attention.
"Hold on for a minute. Randy if you see Hunter before I do, tell him that we need to have a little chit chat" said Dave looking directly at Randy.
"Dave please don't do anything stupid or anything you'll regret later" pleaded Whitney placing her hands on his chest without realizing it.
Looking down at Whitney, Dave bent down and whispered, "Trust me, sweetheart. I know what I'm doing and I know that it was Hunter that has had those tapes played."
By the time Whitney realized her hands were on his chest, Dave had realized they were there too. Before Whitney could pull back her hands, Dave gently brought her hands up to his lips and kissed them.
"Are you ready to finish the night?" asked Grace.
"Yeah, let's go" replied Dave grabbing a hold of Whitney's hand and walking away.
They all went to a club and all but Grace had quite a few drinks and had a great time. About quarter till midnight they left.
As they were walking, Whitney kept looking over her shoulders and not listening to what Dave was saying.
"Whit, what's wrong? It's like you not listening to what Dave is saying" said Chris.
"Sorry Dave, I'm just worried that Randy and Michelle are going to do something and I wouldn't put it passed them to attack from behind" explained Whitney.
"Don't worry I won't let no one hurt you" said Dave.
" I know but I can also take care of myself" replied Whitney.
"Like you took care of yourself with Randy?" asked Chris.
"Chris, I know made a mistake and I'm paying for it. Right now I don't need a lecture, I need my brother" said Whitney.
"You're right Baby-girl. Do you want to stay in your own room or would you like to stay with Amy and I?" responded Chris.
"I know that I don't want to be alone but I don't to want to stay with you for the simple fact you and Amy are married and deserve to be alone and that's also the reason I didn't ask to stay with Grace and Jay" said Whitney.
"Well you can stay with me in my room or I can stay with you in your room. Whatever you want" commented Dave.
"We can stay in your room" stated Whitney.
When they walked up to Whitney's room, Jay and Dave noticed that Whitney's hotel room door was ajar.
"Grace, you and Whitney go into our room and lock the door. I'll knock when it's us" said Jay opening the door and pushing them inside.
Jay and Dave carefully opened the door and saw that someone had ransacked Whitney's room.
"Who did this?" asked Dave.
"I have an idea but I don't think we should tell Whitney about this" said Jay picking up Whitney's things.
When they done, they went next door to Jay and Grace's room.
"Hey open the door, it's me" said Jay knocking on the door.
Grace opened the door and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Whit.. Dave's waiting for you in the hallway and he has your stuff. I'll tell you later, Grace" said Jay hugging Whitney tightly.
"I'll see you guys in the morning" said Whitney as she left.
She met Dave in the hall and he wrapped his arm around her shoulders and said, "Déjà vu."
"What do you mean?" asked Whitney.
"We're in the spot you nearly ran into me" answered Dave.
"Sorry" said Whitney as she and Dave went to his room.
They both changed for bed. Dave had given Whitney a shirt to wear since some of her clothes had been ruined.
"Here we'll share the bed" said Dave pulling down the blankets.
"Come on, I don't bite" added Dave when Whitney hesitated.
"Ok. Goodnight" said Whitney as she crawled into the bed.
Dave turned out the lights, then rolled over and wrapped his arms around Whitney. And for some strange reason after what happened that night, Whitney felt safe as she fell asleep.
