He couldn't even begin to sort out all the emotions that toyed with him. He felt suddenly light and at the same time awkward something Eric had never felt in his life before. He'd always been daring and confident. A bad boy by choice not by ignorance. Eric was smart, like crazy smart, but he didn't like being smart, he didn't like being different. He wanted to be 'cool', but since his intelligence and early childhood had ruined that for him as a young teen and later an adult Eric had taken to being 'the typical bad boy' which was funny since he was a mechanical engineer for a prestigious research facility, though from the look of him no one would think Eric anything but a bad boy with an attitude problem. He liked it that way. He didn't look like the typical 'science type' and he wasn't at all typical.<br/><br/>He let the door close behind him as he followed her in. Her hand taking his made him smile like it was the best thing that ever happened to him. Which in his mind it was. She was beautiful, smart, and did he mention beautiful. His other hand reached up and lightly brushed the few snowflakes from her hair, the soft strands mesmerised him that he froze like that for several heartbeats just laying his hand in her hair his fingers lightly touching her skull.<br/><br/>He coughed to cover his evident daydreaming look that had fallen over his features as he'd gazed at her. His eyes locked on her beauty captivated by her. He blinked. "I should get us some drinks, I'll be right back," and without waiting he left her at the table and went to the counter. It didn't take long because Nathan knew him well and waved him over even though there was a crowd. Nathan was the 'artsy' owner of the place and they had been friends since highschool. Eric leaned on the bar and gave the order. Nathan grinned, catching sight of Sarah, without speaking Nathan made their drinks, Eric paid and took them before quickly hurrying back over. Nathan followed after him bringing a tray of some pastries and chocolate which he laid on their table as Eric took his seat and thanked him. Nathan winked and left them.<br/><br/>Eric pushed her mug towards her his fingers lightly brushing her hand as he did so. Making sure to gently capture her hand in his and smiling lightly at her. "So you like Nathan's place?"
