"Hey babe, are you trying out for the talent show?" I hear a voice behind me say. I turn around and see Eric, looking perfect as always in his muscle shirt. I smile. To be honest, I hadn't really given it much thought. But I suppose I could. "Maybe..." I say wrapping my arms around his neck and kissing his nose. It had been about a week since Eric's pool party. Our relationship has only grown, and I feel really good about it. Back in Louisiana, all my boyfriends were really controlling, and really forceful. They remind me of Jake... But Eric is the perfect change. Never before have I felt so myself with a guy, so safe, so secure, and so loved. It brings a smile to my face just to think about it. "Mhmm you should," he mumbles into my lips, as he pulls me in for a kiss. Our lips connect, and I feel the sparks instantly. I could get high off of kissing Eric, the feeling is just so perfect, so- right. "I might." I say as I grab his hand and pull him towards his house. It's finally the weekend, and there's nowhere I would rather be then laying in his muscular arms. "Cal, just so you know my parents are on a business trip. If its okay with your mom you can stay for however long you like." He says pulling me close. I rest my head on his shoulder as I think about, just everything. At my old school, the only thing guys wanted me for was sex. I couldn't be alone with a guy without putting myself in a very bad situation. And for once I don't feel the need for worry. Eric hasn't even mentioned anything sexual and I couldn't be happier knowing I have someone who loves me for me, and not my body. "Sounds perfect," I say as I pull him inside, shutting the door behind us. We cross over to the couch, and I sit on his lap. I love the feeling of his arms holding me tight, his warm breath on my neck, his heart beating fast. I just relax, resting my head on his shoulder, and thinking of just how lucky I am.

As I stare down at Calleigh's small frame on my lap, I feel blessed. How could I possibly deserve this angel? She's always considerate of my feelings, always there for me when I need her, and she always acts as though she truly wants to be in this relationship. With all my past girlfriends, they either just used me to have a good time, or acted genuinely bored when we were together. I tried giving them the world, but they just shrugged me off. With Calleigh, I can give her the world, and get the universe in return, and I've never been more happy. I pull her close and give her a kiss on her forehead and watch her lips curl into a smile. I lean in to capture her lips in a kiss when the doorbell rings. Reluctant to move I pick up Calleigh and place her on the couch. "Sorry baby," I say as I watch her lips pout. She looks so cute, I just want to hold her tight, and feel her lips on mine. "Eric I'm gonna run to the bathroom real quick, kay?" she says. "mkay." I reply, shaking my thoughts out of my head. I open the door. "Natalia?" I ask, shocked at who I see in front of me.

Good he's alone. Now's time to make my move. "Hey Eric." I say it the most flirty way possible. Theres no way he can resist me now, he doesn't have to pretend to be in love with that little bitch now that we're alone. I grab his shirt and pull his lips to mine. He pulls away looking stunned. "Natalia, you need to go." He says sternly, pushing me towards the door. He can't mean that. Wy does he keep lying to himself? "Oh c'mon Eric, Calleigh doesn't need to know. It'll be our little secret." I say pulling him in for another kiss. Suddenly I hear a gasp coming from the doorway, as I see a very upset Calleigh running upstairs, tears streaming down her face.

"Calleigh, baby!" I hear Eric's voice yell to me as I run up the stairs to his room. I sit on his bed and break down in sobs. How could he do this? How could she do this? I hear a door slam and footsteps running up the stairs.

"Cal, baby," I hear Eric say as he sits down next to me, "I'm so, so sorry." I don't get it. I thought there was nothing going on between them.

"Eric what the hell!" I yell at him. He looks as if he's gonna start crying, and I instantly feel bad, but still furious.

"Calleigh, babe it's not what you think!" He starts frantically, "she just came in and forced herself on me. I swear! I had absolutely nothing to do with it, I was pushing her away!" I sit there not quite convinced. Should I believe him...? I mean I really truly love Eric with all my heart, and then this happens.

"Eric you were kissing her!" I yell, eyes full of tears.

"No, Cal. It wasn't like that!" He says pleading. I look away, not knowing what to believe. He takes my hands in his and looks me straight in the eye.

"Calleigh Duquesne, I am in love with you. I would never ever even think of doing anything to hurt you. I have never loved anyone the way that I love you, and I wouldn't trade our relationship for anything. You mean more to me than anything else, and I would die if I lost you. You're absolutely perfect, please believe me." He finishes.

From the sincerity of his words , to the sincerity in his eyes, I think I believe him. Then it dawns on me what he just said to me. Eric Delko just told me he was in love with me.

"Calleigh...?" He starts,

"Calleigh, please-" He says pleadingly, but he doesn't have time to finish before I capture his lips in a sincere kiss. I put all of my feeling into this one kiss, letting him know I feel the same way and more. I slowly caress his mouth with my tounge, deepening the kiss as I move to his lap. I kiss across his jawline to his ear, as I lick and suck his earlobe. I hear him moan with pleasure which encourages me even more. I move my lips back to his, and suck his lower lip as I feel his tongue exploring every inch of my mouth. I feel the love, the passion, the truth. All in this one kiss. And I know that he truly means what he says. I slide his shirt off and plant a trail of kisses down his chest.

I rest my head on his chest as I feel the warmth of his skin, hear the racing of his heartbeat. And I know in this moment I am truly in love with Eric Delko.

Oh my god. That's all I can think as I feel her head resting on my chest. She's just amazing! I finally catch my breath as I run my fingers through her hair, tracing patterns on her back. I feel the aching in my body again, but it's easier to suppress now. Besides I've only known her for two weeks, it's too soon to take such a big step. I think of all the feeling I just experienced in the last few minutes. Loss, pain, but then something else.

When I kiss Calleigh It's not like any regular kiss. With other girls I feel nothing, as they just use me for their own needs. With Calleigh I feel true love. True desire. I feel like I'm floating, her lips take away everything. Time stops when her lips are on mine, it's just the two of us in the world. And that's the way it should be. I flip her over and stare into her eyes as the lays on my chest. I kiss her forehead, then her cheek, then her neck. Just her scent, the feeling of her skin drives me crazy. Stupid hormones. I feel my sexual desire continue to grow as I struggle to keep it under control. I just stare down at Calleigh as I know what I said earlier was 100% true. I am completely in love with Calleigh Duquesne.
