"Hey Cinnamon I thought you were dead," Eric pets his cat.
"We need sleep," Caitlin holding her hand,
"you do, I don't sleep, you may take my bed to sleep in though," Eric looking at himself in broken mirror,
"no, I am going to sleep in the window," Caitlin looking at him,
"but why," Eric looking at hurt at her.
"I feel closer to Shelly this way," Caitlin taking Eric's old trench coat and putting it over her as she stared up at the star lit sky.
"You don't have to be afraid Cat," Eric putting his hand on her shoulder.
"I am not afraid of you, I just don't want to get close to you cause your only here till you are finished with your work," Caitlin shrugging him off her shoulder he left her alone only to put a record on the record player that she had been playing earlier, "it can't rain all the time," then walked back over to her, extended his hand,
"may I please have a dance with the most gorgeous girl in the city," Eric asks hurt,
"you mean the second gorgeous girl don't you," Caitlin smiles halfway.
"No, the most gorgeous girl," Eric motioning for her to take his hand, Caitlin almost cried as she took his hand, he pulls her close to him,
"we never danced together," Caitlin looking away from him.
"Well now, we have," Eric running his hands gently over her back, Caitlin burst into tears,
"I love you Eric, I have loved you ever since we meet," Caitlin looking away from him,
"I know we got close so fast," Eric hugging her.
"No, I have loved you just like Shelly had," Caitlin whispers in his ear, Eric started crying because he had left his best friend behind.
"Why didn't you tell me this before," Eric in her softly,
"afraid that you wouldn't want to be my friend," Caitlin crying.
"Hey there wouldn't be any reason that I would leave you, you wouldn't have anyone then," Eric says then realized he had said everything all wrong,
"Cat, I didn't mean anything by that," Eric pulling away from her,
"sure you didn't," Caitlin running from the apartment building and getting on the bike and speeding to the club.
"Hey girl, what are you doing here," Daniel asks,
"just a bit upset, I just need to work Dan," Caitlin a bit harsh, jumping over the bar.
"Okay, do you wanna talk about it love," Daniel asks,
"you wouldn't believe me if I told you Dan so lets not talk about it," Caitlin pouring shot glass.
"Try me," Daniel smiling,
"okay my best friend came back from the dead and the only thing stopping him from not being my friend is because my mother who is never around to feed me or cloth me," Caitlin slamming her bad hand down on the bar and screaming a bit loud.
"No need to wake up the vampires now, hehe," Daniel smiling,
"well its Eric's fault, he removed the glass from my hand just a few minutes ago," Caitlin making a awful face,
"what, you mean he is alive," Daniel about to freak out.
"Hey Caitlin could you pour me a drink," Eric smiling, Daniel jumped,
"who the hell are you, you look like a fuckin' clown," Daniel backing away.
"Its okay, Eric Draven meet my boss Daniel," Caitlin pouring Eric a drink,
"I guess I believe you now," Daniel shaking, afraid to even shake Eric's hand, Eric shook his hand and fell back with a vision from just touching him. A vision of Caitlin and him talking and her being there for him when his girlfriend was killed.
"I am sorry man, about your girl," Eric hurt,
"how did you know about that," Daniel puzzled.
"Don't worry bout it," Eric paying for his drink, then downing it in one gulp.
"Okay, I will leave you Caitlin if that's what you really want me to do, but I will always care a lot for you as a friend, not because of your mother or that you wont have anyone but because I have always cared for you," Eric walking away headed in the direction of where the apartment was.
"You have one messed up friend," Daniel going back to work,
"yeah, well he is a good friend," Caitlin pouring more drinks.
"We need sleep," Caitlin holding her hand,
"you do, I don't sleep, you may take my bed to sleep in though," Eric looking at himself in broken mirror,
"no, I am going to sleep in the window," Caitlin looking at him,
