"You thought it was all a dream?" Eros smirked, as his eyes lit up in amusement.

I nodded slightly.

Eros caressed my cheeks and smoothed my hair; his eyes grew fonder with every look.

"It would kill me if this was just a dream." He said softly.

I blushed.

I placed a hand over his on my face and leaned into his touch.

It was warm, it was real. This wasn't a dream.

Overwhelmed by my emotions, tears began to fall from my eyes and I let out a loud cry. I sniffed loudly, my chest heaved as I gasped.

"I thought you were dead." I whispered. I could barely let those words out of my lips...

I didn't think I would be able to take another Back to Life episode from Eros again. He had already done enough of that, and I really thought I lost him for real this time.

"I can't die." Eros smiled. "Not without your permission."

A smile slipped out of my lips even though I wasn't supposed to find it funny.

"Don't talk about death." I hit him lightly on the chest. "I don't want you to ever do this to me again." I said.

Eros nodded. "I won't."

Even though I knew none of us could predict what would happen next, I felt some kind of reassurance with the words he spoke.

Eros cupped my face in his hands once more and kissed me.

This time it wasn't too fast. It was a slow kiss that told me exactly what this man felt about me. A kiss that told me our hearts would forever remain as one and nothing would keep us apart from each other. Neither of us cared about my parents watching us in amusement.
