So it has been quite awhile. On the bright side, this is a multi chapter story now. Some of you will be happy about it, others will hate me for getting another story when I am already shitty in updating the Ace of Spades. Well I'm in the middle of writing the next chapter, so it shouldn't take THAT long. But since I'm in process of moving from one city to the other, it might a month, but not longer.
Once again everyone is thankful to my beta reader BEgreen. Thanks to her this story is actually readable.

Two days after Eric's dramatic entry into my university on his motorcycle (or as he himself proudly pointed out- Harley Davidson Chopper), I was waiting for Eric to pick me up for our first date. Since it was a middle of the spring, it wasn't exactly hot, but wasn't that cold anymore as well. It hasn't rained in a while, also a blessing, meaning there wasn't any mud to worry about. Eric told me to dress comfy and warmly as he promised that today will be no fancy date. Though some girls might have been disappointed at that, I wasn't one of the. I got much more excited about this date than he would have been. It was as if he told me that we are going to the most expensive restaurant in the state.
So heeding his advice I dressed in a comfy in pair of jeans, green t-shirt and threw on a red light weight cardigan. It wasn't exactly warm, but I didn't want to look foolish wearing something hideous. I was ready to go ten minutes before the time we had determined. Feeling anxious I couldn't sit still. I found myself pacing with a need to calm myself. Since I was renting a room at an old couple's house, I went out to the porch to wait for him. Maybe some fresh air would help.
I could hear him coming before I could actually see him. The powerful sound of his chopper's engine made me turn my head to the side just to see that wonderful sight: a sexy cowboy riding a black and silver chopper. Unknowingly I stepped down the stairs and Eric stopped just a few feet away from my side. Maybe I should have been scared by how close he stopped, but foolishly I didn't doubt Eric's driving skills.
"Hey there, milady," said Eric as he took of his helmet still with bike between his legs.
"Hey, cowboy," I answered with just a hint of a smile, "you know, you remind me Jon Bon Jovi's song 'Wanted Dead or Alive' with that bike."
"Good, I like that song. But now, I see something else I like even more," he said and reached with his hand to tug me to his side so he could kiss me. And of course I let myself enjoy the kiss and just as I started to feel like I would jump him right here on the bike, Eric pushed away. Unconsciously I frowned and Eric let out a small chuckle as he caressed my cheek.
"So what are our plans now?" I asked as I went to hug Eric around his waist.
"What about you go change into something warmer? This cardigan doesn't seem very warm, and we are planning to spend a lot of time outside."
"But I want to look nice and something warmer would be my universities hoodie."
"Hoodie is perfect, I am wearing one myself under this jacket, so we will match," he pushed me away from him and smacked my butt guiding me to the direction of the house.
I ran quickly and changed into gray hoodie with my universities logo. As I walked out again, Eric was already of the bike and was twisting a smaller helmet in his hands, while his own was laying on the seat of the bike.
"Much better, now you will be warm on this little nature day of hours," he said while putting a helmet on my head.
"So you still haven't told me of our plans for today," I said stretching my chin up so Eric could hook up my helmet.
"Today we will travel in time."
"Should I wear something more futuristic? Or maybe something that screams of Middle Ages?" I mocked Eric having no idea what he means by this.
"No, you are dressed perfectly," Eric kissed me on the nose, and sat on the bike.
I followed his lead and sat behind him and hugged him tightly around his waist. Eric didn't ride his chopper too fast, so the ride was smooth and pleasant. While we were riding in silence I kept on thinking about Eric's looks and personal style. From an outside perspective everything would screamed "Bad Boy" but he was tender and sweet towards me. It was like every girls dream come true. The danger and excitement of a bad boy, yet he will treat you right.
Finally we arrived to a small park next to the forest a bit out of town. There were a few other cars parked in the parking lot and you could see few bikes riding in the small wavy road.
"So this is where you hide your time travelling machine?" I asked while getting off of Eric's bike.
"You have no idea just how close to truth you are right now." Eric laughed while putting our helmets into the storage and locking his bike. Then he dropped his hand on my shoulders and when I hugged him around his waist, we started walking to the road. We walked quite a bit down the road, but soon enough Eric pushed me to the forest.
"Is this a place where you will feed me to the wolves?"
"If you behave badly, yes it is."
"Is this your way of telling me that if I behave badly, you will kill me instead of a spanking?" I batted my lashes at him
"Shit Sookie, I'm trying to be romantic, and you seem to want to drive me to the point where I just fuck you right now right here."
"That does sound tempting actually," I whispered silently.
"What was that?" Eric looked down at me.
"Nothing," I decided to tease him a bit.
"Are you trying to provoke me?"
"No, Mister." I really didn't but right now it did sound like this would have been good idea.
"I was planning on romantic first date, but you just can't help that can you?" Eric sounded quite strict, so I got nervous. Did I just ruin what could have been a great relationship?
"Look, I'm sorry, Eric, I was just teasing, I didn't mean to belittle you, I just…" but before I could finish my thought Eric started kissing me. I was confused a bit.
"Sookie, I wasn't angry, and if you thought so, I'm sorry, I was in a way teasing you back. I'm just amazed on how different you are. You are not afraid of joking so easily about sex, while other girls usually pretend to be prudes when they have sucked more dicks in a year than Babylonian whore in her whole life, or they overuse cliché jokes just to show how sexual they are. You also are funny, and in a most wonderful way ever. You are special, different, I might not know why yet, but I feel it in my guts. I felt it before we actually met. You mesmerize me. I feel like a kid with you, naive, carefree and at ease. That's why I wanted to show you this place, where I used to spend so much time as a kid." He pointed at the tree house up in the oak just a few trees away from us. I was speechless, to what he had said, but I felt a need to answer somehow, so I went for a kiss. Actually I jumped up, and Eric with his quick reaction caught me by my legs and held me as we started kissing. This kiss was far from sweet one, it was a hungry one, where both of us fought for domination, and suddenly I gave up and just let myself enjoy Eric's guidance. Couple of minutes later Eric pulled my head back by the hair and I gasped in this animalistic pleasure as he started kissing my neck.
"Eric, if you don't stop now, you better have condoms." I managed to breathe out. Eric chuckled and let me down on my feet.
"Actually I do have them, but I don't think we should use them this early on the date."
"Uah, someone came prepared," I joked.
"Actually I always have some with me, you never know when opportunity might arise." He winked at me and pinched me in the butt to which I squealed.
We walked to the tree where Eric pulled a rope and rope ladder fell from it.
"How old is it?" I asked looking hesitantly at the ladder.
"It's safe, the last time I climbed it was earlier today, and it was still perfect. Go first, I will catch you if something happens."
As I started climbing, the ladder twisted and moved, and few times I thought that I would really fall. When I was finally in the house, I could see why today was the last time that Eric used the ladder. There was a basket full of food and a lot of other stuff. When Eric climbed to the top, I laughed at the site of him in this house. The treehouse was quite big compared to tree houses in general, but it was still dwarfed by Eric's size.
"I found a small tree house here with my father, but it was in terrible condition, so I rebuilt it, well mostly my dad did, but at the time I felt like I did so much."
"That's sweet, Eric. Your dad sounds amazing!"
"He was. He was my hero." Eric said with a sad smile.
"Oh, he's dead? I'm sorry Eric. Do you mind me asking what happened?"
"There was an accident nine years ago, when I was sixteen. He was drunk. There is no one else to blame."
"I'm so sorry, Eric."
"It's okey, I took it very hard, becoming a person you wouldn't want to meet I partied and fucked a lot with random girls. Yet I stopped when I noticed how it was even worse for my mom due to my behavior. But I'm better now. I guess in the long run, that got my mom and I in a better relationship; better than it ever was. Well . . . after I realized and came to terms with what happened. But enough about bad stuff. I hope you are hungry, cause I bought nutella, fruits, some berries and cookies. You know a kids dream come true."
"Oh you put a lot of thought into this coming back to your childhood date, didn't you?"
"You have no idea," Eric grinned deviously, "Oh, and I have one little question. Do you have to be back early? If not maybe you can stay all night? Cause I have this idea . . ."
"I'm all ears" I responded as Eric crawled to the side and showed me a tent kit.
"Are you up for a sleepover in the tent while telling horror stories?" He said as he lighted a flashlight even though it was pretty light in the tree house.
"I'm in!" I laughed, "Are you going to try to scare me with that big monster in your pants?"
"No longer than half a minute. You are so sexy that I will be done before we get started." then he leaned into my ear, "But then I will go down on you for hours."
If I weren't sure before about staying the night, I would have been now. Just thinking of even that unreal scenario made me wet. So my answer was just a whimper.
"But for now," as if nothing continued Eric, "what about a little picnic?"
"What are you offering?"
Eric opened a jar of nutella and laid a bag full of strawberries and bananas.
"Fancy some dessert for lunch?" he asked
"Are you kidding me? This is perfect!" I reached for one but Eric moved faster and dipped a strawberry into nutella and gave it to me. It was the cliché that I normally hate, but with this man over here, the one in situation, I found it just wonderful. So I leaned in to bite it.
"What about some beer? I have some Double Diamond if you want?" Eric asked while giving me a bottle of what happened to be one of my favorite beers. He opened both bottles and after we clinked our glasses and started drinking, the beer in my bottle started to rise up, and it started running down my hand and bottle. Not the one to waste a good beer, I licked the bottle off, and I was about to wipe my hand, Eric took my palm and licked from my elbow up to my fingers. And it was so hot. I wanted to feel more of his tongue. So looking straight Eric in the eye, I took a bottle and poured some of the beer down my cleavage.
Last thing I noticed before Eric suddenly leaned down to kiss my collarbone was that devious look on his eyes. Yummy!
Yes. Yes I actually did stop here. We will continue from here on next chapter. Hopefully it will come out still this year :D Well if you review and inspire me, it might actually be much faster. So let me know if you read it and if you liked it. For the lazy ones "I read this" is enough to make me somewhat happy ;) See you in Spades of Ace quite soon, and for those who only read this story of mine, see you a bit later!
