Forever
She smiled at the sensation of the tiny hairs that rose from his skin as she gently traced the cool, pale surface with soft finger tips, nondescript patterns that had neither meaning nor any purpose…just the gentle touch of a lover. He stirred quietly in his deep slumber; she had no doubt he had already experienced this kind of moment in his long life time. But it was no less meaningful, a tender moment amongst the chaos of life and existence.
A chance meeting of two such different yet similar people both had experienced so much of this world's history. One from the darkness of an eternal star filled night and the other from the brightness of the sun and the pale silvery light of the moon.
He slowly opened his pale blue eyes and looked into her own tricoloured orbs, an interplaying and ever moving trio of blue, green and gold. He swore that he could see the soul of the universe it's self in those eyes. He lifted a hand and gently moved the soft, shimmering red hair back from silky white, white skin. Skin that glowed as if it had swallowed up the light of the moon and shone forth from with in. She pressed her cheek into that gleaming white palm and softly kissed each individual fingertip, placing her seal of ownership on each of the strong appendages.
He inhaled quickly at the feel of each delicate kiss; it astounded him that it took him so very long to find the one true love that brought him back to life with a touch. He knew that was he ever to loose this woman, he would never find another anywhere who could make his cold dead heart beat into life again.
As he pulled her gently to him and held her with such infinite care she smiled up and traced the two ivory, razor edged fangs protruding from his blood stained lips, her way of claiming him. And as he watched her drift off into the sweet oblivion of sleep Eric Northman simply smiled a tender possessive smile and whispered into her ear.
"Min, är du den min… för evigt"
End
*you are mine forever*
