les sequelles - Eric Coulter 1

52. She's Got You High

Song Prompt: She's Got You High ~Mumm-ra

Imagine: Eric being in love with you, but he doesn't even know it himself.

Eric's POV

There's Y/N, teaching the initiates how to properly throw a knife, she is absolutely perfect at throwing, in fact, she's perfect at everything she does, every time I see her I get this strange feeling in my chest, and I don't know what it is. I've never felt this way about anyone, and ever since she became a trainer, I don't even mind having to see these stupid children every day. But why?

'She's got you high and you don't even know yet'

I go to bed at night dreaming about making her mine, and I wake up in the morning wishing she were next to me. Yet, I don't know why.

'You can't deny you're looking for the sunset'

She and Four are close friends, and I feel bubbling rage inside of me every time I see them together, but then again, I get this feeling every time I see her with any guy. I'm not afraid of anything, but now I'm scared someone might take her away from me before I can tell her how I feel. What am I thinking, she isn't even mine, I shouldn't care who she hangs out with. But I do.

'It's the search for the time before it leaves without you'

I can't focus at work; Max is constantly snapping me out of my thoughts about her. My friends are always making fun of me at dinner for acting so lost. What am I doing, I'm Eric, the Eric, I can't keep this up!

'Have you lost your mind or has she taken all of yours too?'

I've talked to her so many times before, she has the most beautiful voice, she's so passionate and sweet, but so broken and feisty. She's perfect, but she would never fall for a guy like me, she's been hurt so many times and she doesn't believe in love anymore, she thinks that the world has lost affection, most people are only with each other for their own selfish motives, and I'm the last person who could prove her wrong.

'We've lost romance this world has turned so see through Open your mind, believe it's going to come to Keep romance alive and hope she's going to tell you'

I want to believe that I could get her to be mine, I want to believe that maybe, just maybe we could live happily ever after. But I won't let myself believe it, happily ever after's don't exist, life is not a fairytale.

'The sun's in the sky, it makes for happy endings You can't deny you want a happy ending'

I don't know what's happening to me, but whenever she's around I lose my whole bad guy persona. I just need her, I want her, maybe I'm falling for her. No! I'm Eric, the Eric, I cannot be in love, I cannot keep behaving like this. But I can't stop it from happening, and I don't know why.

'She's got you high She's got you high She's got you high'
