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.

It made me feel powerful, protected and loved. Like I was part of him. I don’t question it. I decided to enjoy it.

So, it’s my turn. How old are you?” I asked him.

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.
