It was about 6 months ago now and Dave was turning 21 and was having a party at his parents house. His parents were practically my second mum and dad ...nd they had aMassive old house. It was at this party that I noticed how much Emma had matured from a young c***d into a young woman...I had often fantasises over her when we were growing up but she was always too young so it wouldn't be right, plus it was Daves sister!! How could I think like that about someone who was like a sister to me!!!But. We went out straight from work catching the tube up to the West End andhaving a meal in Chinatown. I had spent the afternoon with a whole swarmof butterflies in my stomach, but once the date started I settled down andenjoyed myself. Besides being beautiful, Kelly was bright intelligent andwitty.There were warning signs, though. Signs that could have given me anindication that things weren't quite on the level. Firstly, we insistedthat I tell no one we were going out. She said that it was. There was also the fact that Bryan had witnessed only a percentage of the convoy and had no idea how many had passed by the intersection before he was able to get close enough to see.The ladies had reported that what amounted to a light squad of men had come into town and seized the courthouse and the arsenal at the sheriff's office. From there the convoy rolled straight into town and as the force accumulated, started ripping people out of their homes and herding them toward the center of. He couldn't bring himself to spend Erin's father's money for a new pickup. However it didn't bother Erin one bit. She was still bitter how her husband was received by her parents.The owner of the small house in Caldwell had already been hosed by a crooked contractor in the repairs of the dwelling and garage. Rick said he would have done the repairs for half. They bought the place and moved in. Now that it was hers, she drove to the nearest Goodwill to buy any halfway decent furniture. Plus they.
