He seemed lost in thought and just nodded.

"We'll discuss that later but first tell me how I got here?"

"Umm, you know after you saw me and Caleb, Blair and I went to the bar where Caleb told us you would be. You were being a nuisance but we finally managed to take you home."

"Did I...say something embarrassing?"

"Mhmm," I said with a thoughtful expression wanting to mess with him.

"You did actually. When we got to the bar you were standing at the table giving some kind of speech about how dogs should be able to vote and then you kept going on about how much you like me. Not to mention you said that you were a stalker."

I looked up at Erick's face and his expression was priceless. Despite my best attempts, I burst out laughing. "I was joking," I said in between laughs. Erick turned away from me when I said that. Apparently, he didn't find it that funny.

"It was a jokeee...I am sorry"

I cried out with my funny expression replaced with a solemn one. He turned around and a grin broke out on his face. He started moving towards me but before I could yelp out a 'no' he started tickling me mercilessly.

It was fun in the start but then my stomach started hurting from laughing so much.

"Ahh Erick""St-stopp"
I yelped in between laughs. I giggled and tried to wiggle out from his grasp. When I saw a chance I escaped his grasp and stuck my tongue out at him. My victory was short-lived as he quickly flipped me upside down and pinned me on the wall.

"Not so feisty now, are we"

I shook my head quickly. He smirked at me with a goofy grin plastered on his face. I think this might be the most carefree I have ever see him. His eyes move from my eyes to my lips.

Was it just me or was the temperature suddenly rising by the second? He licked his lips seductively and moved in closer. His hands held my arms hostage while being pinning my back against the wall. I study his gorgeous features and think about the first time we met.

Smirking he grabbed me by my throat and pulled me closer, even more than I thought was possible. My lips suddenly became dry and I licked them to provide them some moisture. I gulped nervously.

He smirked at my nervousness.

Are we about to kiss right now?

He gave me the answer to that by crashing his lips onto mine. I kissed him back as if my last breath depended on it. As if he was the only drug I needed. His lips tasted soft and everything else I had dreamt of.

He was like a breath of fresh air throughout my body. I savored every second of it. The way his hands are wrapped around my throat, the way our hearts beat almost in a rhythm, the way he moved expertly with his tongue.

My heart was beating so loudly that I am surprised he didn't hear it. A moan escaped me without my permission and he smiled while kissing me. I didn't ever want this to stop. It felt..right.

The kiss gave me butterflies all over my body and everywhere he touched me was an aching spot. I yearned for his touch everywhere. The ferocity of the kiss became too intense to handle and we both finally pull away breathless.

My pulse skyrocketed and all of the credit goes to one man - Erick.

He chuckled at how breathless I was. My cheeks were probably a glowing red. I nervously started  playing with my hands. 

I did the one thing I could after being kissed like every girl's dream - I ran.

I ran out of his room but before I could take a step further, I ran into someone and stopped abruptly.

A/N - I know I am amazing for updating so soon so no need to thank me haha. Who do you think she ran into? Did you enjoy this chapter?  This chapter was mainly for the Erick + Athena shippers and I am one too as well ;) Be sure to vote/comment as it definitely encourages me!<3

I am not an expert but tips to get followers as many people asked me :

1. Be consistent with the updates and interact with your existing followers and make them feel like a part of something.

2. Do follow back some, if not all of the people following you :)

3. If you aren't able to follow them, read their stories and provide your feedback.

4. Follow the people who are interested in the genre you are in. For example if I write romance : I should follow the people who are lurking in the comments of a romance book.

Hope this helped! Until next time :)
