Chapter 7
Melinda and Sam went into the house with her things. She told him to put the bags at the bottom of the stairs, she would carry them up after. He ran them up, and put them on the landing of the staircase. He came down, she smiled, "I would love to come to dinner, but can you give me 1 hour. I want to change, feed Cody, and than I will come over to your place."
"Sure that is fine, it will give me time to get dinner started"
"Ok I'm really sorry I can't bring you anything, I don't even have wine in the house"
"I have everything don't worry, and bring Cody "
"I will see you in 1 hour". Sam walked out, and ran down the stairs, and waved. Cody wanted to run with him, but Melinda told him to stay. She shut the door, "Cody what do you think of our new neighbor"? Cody jumped up, and down. She smiled, "Yeah Sam is much better than Steve isn't he"? She was shocked Cody started barking it was like he hated the name Steve. She walked into the kitchen, she filled his bowls with dry food, and water. She ran upstairs, while Cody was eating. She opened the windows, and hung up her things. She ran to the shower, and jumped in, and got out drying herself off after. She walked to the bedroom , she put on her sundress, and new sandals. She looked in the mirror, and smiled as she twirled around. She ran downstairs, Cody was sleeping by the door. She did a few things, than she walked over putting the lease on Cody, and left the house. She was walking to Steve's place, Cody was so happy, but he wanted to run to the beach. He saw kids kicking the ball around.
"Later after dinner Cody"
Cody looked at her like to say, "Awe why not now"? She laughed, and went to Steve's house. She walked up the stairs, and knocked on the front door. She waited a moment, Steve came to the door.
'Right on time Melinda come in, I hope you like Steak"?
"Love it'. Cody was sniffing, Melinda knelt down. "You be good no begging, that isn't nice"
Cody walked over laying on the floor, as Melinda walked into the kitchen. "May I help you"?
"No sit down, I'm almost done". She sat at the kitchen table it was already set for two. He walked over putting the baked potatoes on the table, with corn on the cob, and he brought the steaks over. He walked over to the fridge to get the salad.
"Oh Steve you did to much"
"I was starving, I was going to make this for myself anyway". She smiled as they were eating, it was delicious. Cody was looking at them, Steve smiled, "Can I give him a small piece of steak"?
"Well I don't want him begging but for a treat 1 piece". Steve got up giving him a piece. "Good boy you eat that but no more". Cody was satisfied with the one piece, he ate it , and laid back down. They finished dinner, Steve put the dishes in the sink. He wouldn't let her wash them, he said he would do them after their walk. He said they could come back after the walk for strawberries, and ice cream. She smiled, and the three of them went outside for their walk.

Chapter 8
Sam and Melinda were walking, Cody was on his lease. Sam smiled, "Do you want to put your feet in the water"?
"Sure". They walked over taking off their shoes, and walked to the water. Cody was already jumping around in the water. Melinda smiled, "Cody loves the water, but don't let go of his lease, he could drown"
"I won't don't worry". She held Sam's hand, as they walked, and Cody splashed around. They were laughing, having a wonderful time. Melinda didn't realize she was being watched. Steve actually showed up, he got a cabin just down the beach. He was not impressed seeing her with Sam at all. He was watching, but he wanted to walk out , and ask her how she could find someone so fast? She just got to this place, and she was letting a man hold her hand, and that stupid dog made him sick. He sat watching, he knew she was to into the other guy to even notice him or anyone else.
Sam whispered, "Lets go walk down the boardwalk Cody can have a great walk". They put their shoes on, and went up to the boardwalk. They were walking, but all of a sudden Cody was acting really strange. He actually growl, and barked , Melinda and Sam were shocked. He was so good he didn't seem to care about other people on the beach. All of a sudden he was being bad, he wouldn't stop barking. Melinda knelt down, "Cody stop barking you will scare people be a good boy". He looked at her, than stared out down the beach. Melinda turned looking she saw a man walking real fast down the beach. She got shivers, Sam touched her arm.
"What is the matter"?
"Nothing Cody freaked me out, for a minute, I thought I saw someone from back home. I really don't like the man, it freaked me out a bit"
"You sure it wasn't him"?
"No it can't be he wouldn't be here, he doesn't know where I went"
"Want to keep walking"?
"Yes Cody seems better". They walked Cody was ok, he kept looking back, but he eventually stopped. They walked to the end, and sat on a bench, while Cody rested. Sam touched her hand, "You will come back to my place for dessert won't you"?
"Yes if you like"
"Well I would, I don't have to work tomorrow, we could watch TV or a movie"
"I would like that, but you will have to walk me home after"
"Of course"
They were walking back holding hands. Sam stopped, "Tomorrow I could take you shopping, and out to lunch. Monday maybe you can come to the Bar, I can treat you to a drink. I think you would love it there, I have a few great friends, you would love. I know you came to write, but 1 day off would be ok don't you think"?
"I would love that"
"Cody can't come in the bar, but he would be ok at the beach house"
"Yes that would be fine."
They both walked back to his place, and went inside.
Steve was walking past Melinda's place. He was so angry, he grabbed a rock, and threw it through her side window. He shocked himself, he ran down the street to his place. He went inside his Beach house, and shut the door. He hoped no one saw him, he didn't see anyone. He leaned against the door, and whispered, "You are mine Melinda, he better stay away from you or else".

Chapter 9
Sam and Melinda were in the kitchen, he got out the strawberries, and ice cream. He put the water on for coffee, and they sat down eating their dessert. Melinda smiled, "It was a really lovely afternoon, and evening, thank you so much"
"Well tomorrow I'm taking you shopping for food. Than you are coming to the bar to meet some of my friends. I'm sure you will love them, and drinks are on the house"
"That is very kind of you, I wouldn't want you in trouble"
"Me in trouble my Boss loves me"
"I'm sure he or she does"
"It is a man, but he trusts me, he is like a Father to me"
"I would love to meet your friends, I'm just worried about Cody. I don't like leaving him to long alone, he is just a puppy"
"He will be fine, we will get him some playthings tomorrow. He is really good he is being so quiet"
"I think the running around tired him out"
"Yeah I guess, would you like to watch some TV"?
"Sam I'm really tired would you mind walking me home? It was a long day, and I'm exhausted"
"Sure I'm sorry"
"No I loved it today, don't get me wrong"
"Good you scared me"
Melinda got up so did Cody, Sam said he would walk her home.
"It is ok it is only 5 minutes away"
"I'm walking you to your door, I wouldn't let you walk home alone".
"Ok" They put the leash on Cody, and they went outside. They were walking down the street, they got to Melinda's place. Sam noticed the broken window, and Melinda was shocked. Cody was getting freaked out when they walked over to check it out. Melinda maybe you should stay at my place until it is fixed. I don't feel comfortable letting you sleep in there with a broken window"
"It probably was a kid throwing a ball or something"
"It could be, ok let me check out your house, than I will board up the window".
Melina smiled, "You are way to sweet". They walked up the stairs, when Cody started growling. Melinda and Sam looked around not seeing anyone.
"He must sense some kind of animal around"
"Cody come on, lets get inside, you need to sleep". They went in, and shut the door. Steve came around from beside the house.
"You are shacking up with the idiot already Melinda". He wanted to go up to the door but he decided to wait, he wanted to get her alone. He walked down the street to his place. He saw a man sitting on the bench minding his own business. He wanted to go over , and beat the crap out of him, because he was so angry. He didn't because it would bring the Cops around, and he didn't need that. He walked into his house slamming the door, and walking to the fridge grabbing a beer.
Melinda was downstairs, when Sam ran up checking upstairs. He came down with a piece of wood, he walked over boarding up the window. He finished she smiled, "Thank you for everything"
"Call me here is my number, if anything goes wrong"
"I will be fine, go home get some sleep"
Sam almost kissed Melinda, but he knew she wasn't ready for that. He walked out she waved, than she shut her door, and locked it. She walked over, "Cody do you like Sam, he is pretty nice isn't he"? Cody barked they both ran upstairs, and went to bed.

Chapter 10
Melinda got in her nightgown, and got in bed. Cody sat beside the bed waiting for her to pick him up. She smiled, "You have to sleep in your dog bed but for now you can sleep with me." She lifted him up, he snuggled real close, she actually felt safe with him with her. She fell asleep but woke up when Cody jumped off the bed, and ran down the stairs barking. Melinda jumped up , and walked to the top of the stairs, calling Cody's name. He was barking, but she couldn't see him. She ran to her room calling Steve's number.
"Hello"
"Steve it is Melinda, something is wrong, can you come over"?
"I will be right there". Steve jumped off the bed, but he dialed 911. Melinda walked to the top of the stairs, she didn't hear Cody anymore. She got scared, and ran downstairs screaming out Cody's name. She walked into the kitchen, she saw the sliding glass door wide open. She heard banging on her front door, she ran opening it, and was relieved it was Steve. She went into his arms, "Cody was barking, I came down, and my kitchen sliding glass door was wide open. I can't find Cody, who would do this"?
"My Car is right there, let me get you inside, the Police are on the way".
"Cody I can't leave without him"
Steve saw the Police arrive he was glad. He touched her face, "they will find him it probably was some teenager trying to steal".
The Police ran up they told them what happened. They told them to stay by the car, they would check the house out. They went in Melinda was shaking, she can't believe this happened here. She has been coming here with Bobby for so many years, and nothing every went wrong. I guess times have changed, but she only cared about her dog. She couldn't lose that little guy now. She started to cry when the a Police Officer ran out with Cody in his arms.
"OMG Cody what is wrong with him"?
"I think he was poisoned, we have to get him to a vet". The Office ran the Dog to his cruiser, Melinda and Steve got in with him. He took off he knew where there was a all night vet office in town. Melinda was holding Cody he was breathing real fast. He was staring at her, and she pulled him close. "Don't you die on me too, I love you Cody". He moaned as Steve touched Melinda's shoulder. "He will make it, he can't leave us". They got to the Vets office, and ran inside. Dr. Lewis grabbed Cody, and went into the back. Melinda was so emotional she hugged Steve. It brought all the memories of Billy's death back. She just got Cody but it was like he was part of her now. She sat down her hands were shaking, "who would poison him"?
The Officer walked over, "We will find out, but that little dog saved your life. I have a feeling it was you they were trying to get to"
Melinda stared at the Officer, than Steve. "Who would want to hurt me"?
"I don't know Melinda, but I won't let anyone hurt you". Steve whispered as he pulled her into his arms.
