Elijah P.O.V

I was sharing lunch with the most beautiful woman on the planet. Megan is intelligent, has a good sense of humor and is so exquisite. She's currently informing me of a story from her childhood when she would ride horses with her brothers. When she talked about them, her face formed into a frown.

"Why so glum? Has something happened to your brothers?", I asked but quickly added in, "If you don't mind me asking."

Megan's P.O.V.

"No, I do not mind!" I explain as a flood of memories hit me.

I close my eyes and take in a sharp breath. Oh gosh, I'm going to have an anxiety attack. I was about to start freaking out when I felt a hand on mine. Elijah was looking into my eyes and I calmed down. I lazily put on a smile.

"My brothers were amazing . We were all like the three musketeers. They'd let themselves die before I got hurt...and that's exactly what happened," I explain sadly.

I look down.

"Car crash," I tell him.

He looks genuinely hurt. I just smile sadly and feel tears brim my eyes. Suddenly, I felt a body hugging mine. I look up, it was Elijah. I slowly hug him back and can feel tears rushing down my face. He was petting my hair, it felt like he had done this a million times before.

"Shhh , don't worry love, it's alright," I hear him say.

The tears slowly stop, and for once, I actually feel okay.

Elijah and I decided to skip lunch and go for a walk.

"It's a beautiful day out," I say as I felt a soft breeze hit me.

"Indeed it is," Elijah replies.

"So tell me more about you, all we've done is talk about boring old me,"

"Megan you are far from boring,love. But if you insist," he held out his hand for me and I take it.

Suddenly, I saw everything he's ever been through, joy, pain, hurt. He's lost almost everyone he's loved.

"Oh Lij", I whisper.
I engulf him into a hug. At first, he is stiff, but eventually I feel his two strong arms wrap around me. I look at the time.

"Elijah, I must go. It was amazing having lunch with you and just talking like two normal people. I get so lonely some times, you know?" I explain.

I pull him back into a hug, I kiss his cheek and immediately regret it. He just look flustered which made me smile.

"Goodbye Lij," I whisper.

"Goodbye Megan,"
