That had always been something she'd loved about Steve, where so many boys would say anything to gain a little bit of attention, make all kinds of promises, so often they never could quite manage make good on them. But Steve? Steve had always been someone she could trust to keep his word, no matter how big or small.

Steve though, he was her friend and now that she'd found him she was going to latch on to him like the life preserver he was.
