The ramp slowly began to move up and the three friends stepped back, watching the hatch as it closed.

My friend nodded and stepped to the driver's door of the squad car.

Anthony Cade and his friend had stepped a little apart.

Could he expect that her friends would not step forward?

He nodded, and the two friends stepped into the huge hole.

My friends and I stepped in and tried to get people to leave it alone.

Your friend stepped away, and I took advantage of his absence.

He says they would have come to blows if friends had not stepped in.
