Chapter one 

The beginning

Tina  POV

“Tina, where is my green tie??” Eric yells to Tina.

“God babe, you scared me!!” Tina yells back as she steps out of the bathroom. “And why do you want to wear that one?” she askes “why don’t you take the blue one that I gave you?”

The truth is that Tina really hates the green one, it has such a puke-colour, but she knows that it’s Eric favourite, so she ‘accidently’ putted it in the wrong drawer that morning…

She walks over to Eric, and sees him looking very stressed.. “Why is he acting like this, it’s not the first time we go to an Art Gallery opening…” she thinks. But she forgets her thoughts as she sees him, putting on the blue tie, and looking so awfully cute.

They have known eachother for almost eight years now, when her parents moved to San Diego she was 15, and very shy.. But Eric was so sweet to her, and after they fell in love she grew over her shyness. He kept telling her how beautifull she was, and how much he loved her.. After College he found a job in the art world, and asked her to come with him to LA, she agreed, and they moved into a small appartment. Now, after seven years of being together, the butterflies in her stomach disappeared, but sometimes, like at this moment, she knows that she still loves him.

“Earth to Tina!!” Eric is looking at her.  “What are you thinking about honey?“, he askes. She snaps back in the present, and looks at him confused.. “sorry Eric, did you say anything?”

“Well I was just telling you about the gallery, so you don’t look completely lost tonight” Eric smiles at her when he says this. He knows Tina doesn’t really like this parties, but she joins him, because it is importent to him.. Only tonight, he wishes she would just stay home.

“Well darling” Tina exaggerates her kindness “I’ll just stand by your side, not saying a word”

“Great, wel, lets go, we wouldn’t wanna be late!” Eric responds, having not heared the sarcasm in Tina’s voice.
