Music recommendation:- Perfect - One Direction.
Natalie wanted to run, like literally zoom past him like the Flash. However, nothing of that nature happened. Yes, she did run away in her head, but physically, her feet were stuck to the ground and she couldn't do anything.
She just stood there like a zombie watching and waiting as Eric pulled down her walls, layer after layer till there was nothing left and she was bare before him. Till there was nothing left.... to hide from.
"You can't keep hiding in the dark, Natalie. It's time to step into the light. Moreover...." He reached down and took her hand. Intertwining them together with his, he raised it to her face and she stared at it, mesmerized by the action.
His hands were bigger and rougher while hers were smaller yet dainty but they fitted each other, it was a beautiful sight - and she loved it.
"There's nobody here to separate us any longer." He said.
