Nice People

"Isn't that Kimberly?" Ella asked as she unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car with Ken.

"Is something wrong?" Eric asked as he went around the car to where Kimberly was standing. He noticed her discomfort, which wasn't very obvious to everyone, as she made eye contact with Ken. 

"You know him?" Eric asked when he noticed her eyes were on Ken.

Kimberly swallowed before nodding. She didn't know what either Pete or Ken were going to say or do, and she wasn't sure how she was to introduce them. She could only hope this wasn't going to be very awkward. 

Ken flashed her a friendly smile before she could explain the situation to Eric. "Hello, Kim!" Ken greeted before looking at Eric curiously. 

"I'm her husband, Eric King," Eric said, placing one protective yet possessive hand around Kimberly's shoulder before extending another hand for a handshake.
