"I love you" the words rang in Nolan head all the following day. The thought of Tyler actually saying that to him was more then he could handle. The fact that he had said them back and meant it was more then a surprise to him too. Tyler had visited him often and from what Emily said he was relentless in going after anyone involved in framing Nolan. It still surprised him the lengths that they had gone told Emily that Tyler had told him he loved him the next day when they came for lunch. Jack and Emily where still hiding their relationship from the world and the lunches and dinners at Nolan where the only time they were public with their relationship. Emily laughed "Your surprised?" Nolan nodded. "I know I wasn't very supportive when the two of you started out but the past few months have given me a different view of Tyler, he is a very dangerous ruthless man but he is capable of love and I think it surprised even him how much he cares for you" Emily said as she patted Nolan's arm. "Hey, I might actually think you may like me" Tyler said as he walked towards them, he gave Nolan a fruit shake, and while Jack gave Emily her ice tea. "So what were you talking about while we werepreparing the drinks" Tyler asked. "That you told, me you loved me, I still don't believe it though" Nolan said softly. Tyler took his hand and kissed it, "Nolan I love you, and I know it may be hard to believe but even if you were poor I would stay with you, that does not mean I would do almost anything to get money again, but I would never betray you." Nolan lifted his hand and stroked Tylers cheek, just then Andrew came in to say lunch was ready.

The story was about how Tyler had barged in to a family lunch at the Grayson's and held them at gunpoint until they confessed, Conrad had killed Adam who was sneaking into the house, and when their attempt to hide the body failed they had decided to frame Nolan. "Nolan, don't you ever get enough, I know it was difficult but it is over." Nolan leaned into Tyler's hand as it brushed his cheek. "I was reading the announcement " Nolan paged forward to the wedding annoncements there were their pictures with the wedding photos had been leaked to the press. Tyler had made a fortune with those photos, selling them through an assumed name, but even though he could have kept it secret, he had confided in Nolan.
