Eric whispered in my ear as we lay on the ground together.
“You are like no other woman that I have ever been with. I love you more than I can possibly say.”
This was hard to believe considering the three hundred and forty years that he had walked the earth however Eric had never been anything but honest and sincere with me. I felt his arm flex as he pulled me in close to him. Just yesterday this would have seemed like any other normal romantic rendezvous but now it was different. Now I knew who Eric was.
It was yesterday when it all happened. Eric and I had been dating ever since he helped me carry the groceries up to my apartment six months ago. I remember vividly how excited I was seeing such a handsome guy my age living just one floor away. Or at least I thought he was my age.
Eric was amazing. I had never met anyone so confident and yet so humble. He was an incredible listener and yet when he did speak his stories provided for endless fascination. It seemed like Eric had traveled everywhere and knew something about everything. This was more surprising of someone my age since we were usually broke and just getting started in our adult life.
