We decided to get to know each other better, while we walk away from the park to my home.

It was surprising on how I was freely able to talk with him. I seemed to be able to make him laugh with my ability to say odd things.

He chuckled “A century?”

My eyes widened “What you don’t say, you look 18,”

He shrugged “Well, we age slower than any breed on the earth,”

“Woah!” I stopped to touch his soft cheeks. He doesn’t look a day over 18.

“Does that affect you?” he asked suddenly

“Nope, it doesn’t. It’s cool as a matter of fact, I giggled “Next question,”

“Uhm, what’s your favorite color?” He asked

“Black, and sapphire blue” I smiled

“The color of my eyes?” He beamed from ear to ear.

I rolled my eyes, and walked faster “cocky, much?” I asked. But he caught up to me.

But it was true. I like Sapphire blue, I like the color of his eyes.

“Next question,” I said

He shook his head amused “You are
