les sequelles - Eric Coulter 1

63. Birthday

Imagine: Planning a special surprise for Eric's birthday.

*************************************

"Bye Eric, have a good day at work sweetheart!" You call before Eric leaves the apartment. He had a meeting with Erudite, so this is the one time that you actually got to see him dressed formally with a black dress-shirt and tie.

Eric had no idea that you had taken the day off today, ever since he had woken up that morning you were acting as if it was a completely normal day, you had even forced Eric to believe that you had forgotten that today was his birthday. Not that he had expected you to remember, Eric had never been one to make a big deal out of his birthday, to him it was just a normal day, but you knew he deserved more than that. It was the birthday of the love of your life, and you're going to make this be an amazing birthday.

Evening fell, and you had the entire apartment decorated to Eric's tastes. Finally, the guests start coming in, Eric wouldn't want a huge crowd at a party for himself, he's not really a people-person, so you only invited a few close friends.

Eventually, you all hear the doorknob rattle, and you whisper, "Shh, he's here!"

You quickly make your way to the door, the apartment is pitch-black. Eric comes in and you quickly block his path, "Woah, why's it so dark in here Y/N?"

You quickly wrap your arms around him and someone flips the switch the light on, Eric's eyes widen as he looks around.

"Surprise! Happy birthday Eric!" Everyone, except you, shout in unison.

"What the hell," He whispers in shock, he turns to you, "You did this?"

"Yeah," You gleam, "Happy birthday Eric!"

He gives you a half grin, before joining his friends, for a few drinks.

A few hours later, once everyone leaves, Eric turns to you, "Thank you baby, honestly, I thought you had forgotten. I've never liked celebrating my birthday, but I'm actually really glad you arranged this for me, I had a lot of fun."

You lean up and give him a small peck on the lips, "I knew you'd like it!"

"It was one of the best gifts ever," He says smiling brightly.

"But the party wasn't actually your gift," You whisper, trying to conceal your smile.

"It wasn't?" He asks, confused, you shake your head, "Then what is it?"

You simply take his hand, and drag him towards your bedroom, which he had not yet seen. You lead him inside, and his eyes instantly darken lustfully, you've scattered rose petals all over the ground, and the room is lit by candles.

You grab his tie and pull him towards you seductively, "This is your present."

He kicks the door behind him, and begins placing kisses down your jaw to your neck. He pushes you down on to the bed.

"Best birthday ever," He growls before attaching his lips back to your neck.
