You are only mine... and I'll destroy anything that tries." She should run. But she couldn't understand or explain why she didn't want to be away from him and his touch is the kind of madness that's impossible to escape.

"Ericka, I love you," he whispered with his words laced with longing, his eyes burning with sincerity. I gazed into his soulful eyes and responded, "I love you too... even if this is just a dream I really love you. If this is please let me sleep forever, for in this moment that I'm exactly where I want to be with you." His face lit up with a radiant smile as he took my hands in his. "You're really saying that to me?" he asked, his voice trembling with emotion. I nodded, my heart overflowing with love. "Yes, I am. I've never felt this way about anyone before. You're the only one who makes me feel alive." As we stood there, wrapped in each other's arms, the world around us melted away. The only sound was the beating of our hearts, synchronized in perfect harmony. "I don't want this moment to end," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "Me neither," he replied, his lips brushing against my ear. "Let's just stay here, in this moment, forever." I smiled, feeling his warm breath on my skin. "If only we could. But even if this is just a dream, I'm grateful for it. For you." As he spoke, his face drew closer, our lips almost touching. Time seemed to stand still as our hearts beat in unison, the world around us dissolving into nothingness. In that instant, nothing else mattered but the love we shared, and I knew I'd cherish this moment forever. "I love you," I whispered, my lips meeting his in a tender kiss. "I love you too," he replied, his voice muffled against my lips. "Forever and always."
