My Person: A Colleen and Erik Story

"She's just so great."

A few weeks have past and it's finally the day of the Haters Back Off season 2 premiere. Nerves and excitement ran all throughout Colleen's body as she arrived to the theatre. She was scared people weren't going to find it funny and that all of those sleepless nights and long days were going to be for nothing.

She was excited to see all of her friends and the cast, but she was most excited to see Erik. Yes, she saw him 3 days ago, but to her it felt like forever. She went into the theatre and started talking picture with her friends and family. While she was talking a picture with her on-screen mom, Angela, she spotted Erik wondering around looking clueless.

"Hey Erik, come take some pictures with us!" Colleen yelled from across the room.

Erik looked up and smiled at Colleen jumping and waving towards him. He thought it was sweet to see that she was really happy to see him. Erik and the girls took some nice and some strange pictures. Then Angela left to talk to her husband so Erik and Colleen took a few photos together.

Erik was standing next to the Miranda cut out and seeing that made Colleen feel off.
"It's weird seeing you stand next to Miranda when you're not wearing a cardigan and a fanny pack." Colleen laughed awkwardly.

"Should I go home and change?" Erik laughed at the fact that Colleen was weirded out by seeing Erik and Miranda, and not Patrick and Miranda.

"No I'm just used to staring at Patrick and Miranda no a screen for 12 hours straight while editing." Colleen then noticed her friend Lily Singh walk towards her. "OH MY GOD HI WIFE!"

Erik said hi to Colleen's friend then walked away awkwardly. He started a conversation with Steve Little, but would look off into Colleen direction and admire her while Steve was talking.

"You know you're being very obvious." Steve said nonchalantly.

"No I'm not." Erik knew right away what and who Steve was talking about and he didn't bother to take his eyes off Colleen as he said it.

While filming, Steve has a lot of scene with Colleen and Erik and could tell they had feelings for each other by the way Erik would laugh at ANY joke Colleen told. Even the lame ones. And by the way Colleen would look at Erik while he laughed at her stupid jokes. Steve took pride in being the first "Erikleen" shipper. He would tease Erik about it all of the time.

"You were also obvious on set! You laughing at her jokes like they were the funniest things in the world. You laughed harder at her jokes than you did at mine!" Steve said acting offended.

"I'm sorry if I think she's really funny." Erik laughed at Steve's act. "She's just so great. I don't know how else to put it. She's just great." Erik was in awe of Colleen. He couldn't even put into words how much she makes him feel.

"Well I'm gonna go before I step in your drool. Good luck my friend." Steve patted Erik on the shoulder and walked away.

When Colleen was finally finished talking to everyone and taking pictures Erik walked up to her.

"Sorry, I forgot to tell you that you look amazing earlier." He winked at Colleen.

Colleen looked down and blushed. "You look great too. And you don't need to tell me I look amazing."

"Well when someone looks as great as you do they should be complemented 24/7." Erik was trying so hard to be smooth.

Colleen just looked down and laughed at his kind words. He made her feel like this was the first time a boy called her pretty.

"The show is going to start soon we should head to our seats." Colleen said switching the topic of conversation because she was embarrassed.

Erik put his arm out for her to hold. Colleen smiled up at him and wrapped her arm around his as they made their way to their seats.
