Eric's POV
"You're the most hardworking women I've ever seen and to me, that's what differentiate you from all the women you think are above you"
Someone had to tell her, and I took the opportunity to
The look on her face told me that she wasn't expecting to hear that, but I had to tell her the truth, even if she doesn't feel the same way
I placed a kiss on her cheek and was just about to leave when she took a step foward and kissed me
She...kissed me?
I was dumbfounded for what felt like years, trying to figure out if this was real. A short while after, I didn't think too much of it and kissed her back, heaven knows how long I thought of this and imagined it, I wasn't going to ruin it now
She placed one of her hand on my shoulder and the other on my chest. I pulled my hand out of my pocket and slid it round her waist pulling her closer to me
Everything was like fog around me, I didn't concentrate on anything else, I couldn't
The only person on my mind was this woman who unexplainable drove me totally crazy for reasons I couldn't even comprehend
Courtney's POV
I was...on cloud 9
I didn't know what that exactly meant before, but I think I do now
The whole world was totally lost around me, I felt like we were the only ones standing there. He brought his hand around my waist and pulled me towards him, my mind was all fog right now
I know this wasn't my first kiss, but this was so different from that
Very very different. Everything about it was gentle but yet a bit heated, I could feel my heart pounding in my chest
Heaven know that didn't want this to end, but I couldn't stay here forever
Even though I wish I could
We slowly pulled away and I felt I could see right through his beautiful grey eyes
"Wow" There was a smile on his face
I couldn't help but hide mine by resting my forehead on his chest as a slight chuckle escape my lips
"I did not expect that" he chuckled too
"I'm quite unpredictable" I looked up at him "well most of the time"
His hand was still on my waist and the other on my cheek
"Should I take that as a sign that my feeling are reciprocated?" He asked
I thought for a moment before nodding
I saw his smile widen
"Would you go out with me now?"
"Ask me again tomorrow" I said with a smile
.........
"Let's go" I see Daniel and Sophia getting up as I walked towards them
"Hey are you guys leaving?" I asked
"Where on earth were you, we thought something had happened. Where's Eric, he said he wanted to go look for you and then he disappered" Daniel said
"I'm sorry I just got a bit lost" I tell them
Eric walked up to us
"Finally" Gloria rolled her eyes
