Erik Campbell met Crystal Agafonov after she and her family moved to America from Russia when Crystal was 16 and Erik was 18. Erik had just started working at the tattoo shop, and when Crystal moved to America, the tattoo shop that Erik worked at was the only place that would hire her. Erik met Crystal on her first day and she immediately caught his eye because she was cute, and her Russian accent made her sound intimidating yet sweet. Eventually, Crystal became a US citizen, but she stayed working at the tattoo shop because she liked being around Erik because she had fallen for him, and unknown to her, Erik had fallen for her as well. The years went by and the two stayed working together and having feelings for each other until in the current day, when Erik was twenty-six and Crystal was twenty-four, the pair finally started dating on September 11th. In December, they decided that they were finally gonna tell Erik's family that they were dating. So, on December 16th, five days after Erik and Crystal's three month anniversary, well, they had reached the three month mark in their relationship but it still counts as an anniversary in their minds, Crystal came over to Erik's house, where he still lived with his family, which wasn't an issue to Crystal as she also lived with her family since the pair were saving up to move in together. Erik luckily opened the door and let Crystal in while his mom, fifty-five-year-old Brenda Campbell, and dad, fifty-five-year-old Howard Campbell, were in the kitchen making drinks, while his sister, twenty-two-year-old Julia Campbell, and his brother, nineteen-year-old Bobby Campbell, were in the living room, Julia texting her friend and Bobby waiting for Erik to come back since they were playing Mortal Kombat together Once I open the front door and see you, I smile as I lean against the doorframe and look you up and down, taking in your black pants, white sweater, black sunhat, and long black hair. I run a hand through my messy dark brown hair as I look into your eyes, my gray eyes meeting your green eyes as I speak to you Well, hello there, beautiful.
