The way they looked at eachother were as if they were long lost lovers. She looked at him and me with heartbreak.

I put on a fake smile. In hopes he looks at me. But his eyes are still on her. He looks aways reluctantly. Then he look down at me. His eyes soften looking down at me smiling at him. Does he see me breaking inside? Does he feel bad.

Dastan appeared next to her. There seemed to be tension between them. I tired to grab Eragon's hand but he pulled away from me.

Most of the Gala was spent me looking at Eragon and Adamaris stealing glances at eachother. When we got home from the Gala he I tired to make conversation with him but he cut me off short.

"I'm tired and have work tommorow. I don't want to hear your little annoying voice at all." He says walking into the bedroom.

"Uh okay...well sleep well." I say. I got in the bathroom quickly. And broke down crying silently. I didn't want him to hear that what he says and does affects me. I want to be understanding with him.

Once I was calmed down from crying I took my make up off and took and quick shower. Tomorrow I will try and join a gym.

I put my pjs on once I was done with the shower. And saw that Eragon still had his shoes on. I took them off for him. I picked out his work attire for tommorow and put it the bathroom so that he would be ready to go. With that i fell asleep next to him.

The next four months are spent learning how to cook food, going to the gym, taking food to Eragon's work place. I walk up really early to cook breakfast for him that so the eats but he never does. Always leaves me with the breakfast I've made. And when he comes home i always make food for him to eat but he always comes late from work. Once time he did eat but said that my food has to much salt.

Today is his birthday he turns twenty eight. I made him a homemade cake and his favorite dish and that is camarones a la diabla. I bought him a gift and that is a gaming console. I read that guys and girls like gaming. So I think he would like it. And also wrote him a poem from my heart. But I feel like it would be cheesy. I had balloons set up, candles, red wine.

"So birthday boy call me when you might get home." I say as I hung up the phone. It was almost late at night and his birthday was going to be over soon. I sat here by the counter waiting for him.

By twelve he still didn't show up. I couldn't stop the tears from falling down my face. I laid my head down on the counter and closed my eyes.

Later I felt someone pick me up. I opened my eyes and saw Eragon. He looked tired and guilty. As he took me bridal style to the bedroom.

"Princess?" He called out my name.

I pretended to be asleep. I didn't want to deal with his mean attitude. I hope he didn't see that I was crying. I don't want to push him away.

"Fuck I'm such a asshole." He says to himself. With that i feel to sleep.
---------------------------
I woke up in the morning with hand wrapped around me. His hands. Every once and a while he would do that. Not as often as he did on our honey moon. But right now it felt amazing.

"Princess I know you are awake." He says. I look up at him.

"Happy late birthday." I say smiling. Getting up from the bed and going to get his gaming console that I wrapped up for him.

He looked shock and guilty.

"I was going to give this to you on your birthday but you never came. But thank God you are home safely. So here. Hopefully you like it."

He looks at me softly. As he unwrapped his gift.

"I bought some popular games. That I think you'll like." I say.

He smiles.

"This is great. I love it." He says. Looking at the gaming console.

"Oh and here. It's a poem that I wrote. I went on the internet to see how to write a cute poem because I read online that the best gifts come form the heart and...well this comes from my heart." I say shyly.

Eragon you are the sun to my darkness.
You are the peanut butter to my jelly sandwich.
If you are a hero I'll be your sidekick.

He read it out loud. I blushed. It sound like a sixth grade love letter rather than a poem. I though it was deep. But now that he reads it out loud. It sound cheesy. I blushed.

He looked at me and smirked.

"It's cute." He says giving me kiss on the cheek.

Moments like these with him. I live for them. I want him to know that with me he will have someone to support him and cheer him on the sidelines.

We both went into the bathroom to get cleaned up. I finished quickly so i could serve him his birthday dinner that I made for him. I hope he likes it. Once everything was heated up.
He walks out. He did was wearing casual clothes. Maybe he's not going to work today.

"I made your favorite. I hope you like it." I say putting the plate on his table.

He eats it.

"It's good." He says surprised.

YES!!!! He likes it. I instantly wanted to do my happy dance. I looked at the cake that I did. And went to look for the candles that I got him.

"Make a wish Eragon." I say as I held my camera taking pictures. He looks at me flatly.

"I'm almost thirty not three." He says looking at the cake. He put more food in his mouth.

"C'mon making a wish isn't a bad thing." I say. Blows the candle quickly. Once he was done eating I served him his cake.

"I liked this."He says. I smile.

"I'm glad."

Slience arose.

"Come here." He says. I walk towards him and he pulls me closer to him. He kisses me. And it was spark thay flew all around us. He picks me one and puts me on the couch.

"You are so sweet." He says taking off his shirt.
