Big Time Hangout

Part 24

I had no idea who she was and for all I know she could be crazy, but she just saved my life, so I was not going to be the one to judge.

She got the bear off me and helped me up, "I'm Annie." she said. "What are you doing out here? Didn't you hear about the blizzard moving in?"

I shook my head, "Nice to meet you Annie. I'm (yn) and I'm so grateful that you saved my life."

She smiled, "No thanks necessary. This bear is going to make a nice rug for in front of my fireplace. Let's get you out of here and in somewhere warm."

I laughed, "I have no idea how to get to my house from here."

She giggled, "We aren't even going to try that. We will just get to my place and in the morning at first daylight we will get you home. You can call your place from there and let everybody know you're okay."

I shrugged, "As long as I can get warm we will be fine." I smiled.

We got to Annie's house with the bear on a sled behind us. Once inside I picked up the phone but there was no dial tone.

Annie snickered, "This is going to only get worse. The storm must have taken out the phones. You will be there in the morning sweetie so no worries."

I got warmed up and Annie and I sat by the fire and started talking. I told her about my situation with the guys, of course not giving their names or telling her anything other than about the situation I had with each guy.

She shook her head, "Sounds like you're in a pretty good bind there hun. What ever will you do?"

I smiled at her, "I was hoping you could help me. You don't know any of them so maybe you could help me work it out?" I questioned.

Annie laughed, "I don't know what kind of help I could be but if you think I can I will give it a try." she said.

I started to think about the easiest way to do this and realized there really wasn't one, so I started from the beginning. I told her the whole story from the first day I met the guys, but never once do I tell them how we met or the fact that they were famous, nor do I tell her their names. I told her all about the fact that I dated all four of them and how they acted on the dates, what happened when they found out etc. By sunrise she knew my entire story with the guys all the way up until I had walked away from the house, and she saved me. When we got to the part of the story about David being born was the first time she had names. I referred to them as the godfather, Baby's daddy, and of course David and Francis.

"Wow." Annie said. Sounds like you have four wonderful guys willing to do anything and everything to have you. I can see your turmoil. I still don't know how I can help though."

I gave her a half smile, "Honestly I don't know either. I just was hoping maybe you would have some advice since you had never met any of them."

She smiled at me, "Well it really sounds like your heart wants all of them but the one its strongest pulled towards is the one that has been your friend from the beginning."

I started to cry, "Yeah but he is also the one that told me he couldn't be with me because the baby's daddy deserved to be happy."

She smiled at me, "These things always have a way to work themselves out." she thought for a minute, "If I had to put them in order I would say the baby's daddy would be next, then the godfather, then the other guy."

I look at her puzzled, "And why do you put them in that order?"

She smiled and put her hand on my shoulder, "Because the way you talk about them I can see the look on your face, and you give everything away."
