He chuckles "So are you going to stay with me or a friend?" He asks sitting back down in his chair.
"Not sure yet." I shrug. " I still have to pack my things from his apartment. I also want a job change if that's okay, maybe work in leadership..." I trail off.
"I'll help you pack, you're staying with me, and I'll talk to Max tomorrow." He states with a tone that tells me there is no room for argument.
"Thank you... For letting me stay with you." I say and he shrugs.
"It's not a big deal, everyone was just waiting until you two broke up anyways, he still treats you like an initiate. No woman should be treated any less than like royalty." I stand there shocked by the fact that Eric knows how most women want to be treated. "Yeah, yeah, I pay attention and know how to treat a woman big deal." He mumbles, pushing himself out of his seat and grabbing my hand. He pulls me to Tobias's apartment and right when we get to the door I hear a moan.
"Mmm don't stop." I hear Christina say from inside the room.
I sob into my hand and Eric's eyes go wide. He pulls me away from the door and down an unfamiliar hallway. He stops in front of a door, pulls out a key and unlocks it. He opens the door and pulls me in, picking me up and carrying me down a small hall.
"What are you doing?" I ask and he sighs.
"It's midnight. You need to sleep." He me mumbles as he walks into the bedroom.
"I can walk you know." I yawn and he chuckles and sets me on the bed.
"I'll take the couch." He says and I flinch slightly, remembering how Tobias would always say he would take the couch until I convinced him it's okay to sleep in the same bed as me. Eric raises an eyebrow and I shake my head.
"You're sleeping in this bed with me whether you like it or not." I say, pulling his arm and accidentally making him fall on top of me. I squirm around, trying to get him off of me while he laughs his ass off. "Get off me fat ass!" I laugh and he gasps in mock hurt.
"I am not fat. I'm muscular." He rolls off of me and flexes, making me laugh harder. "I'm glad I can make someone laugh." He has a small genuine smile on his face that makes me melt. Wait what?!
