Eric got out of the car once they got to the venue where the award show was being held and hurried to open Kimberly's door. There were journalists in front of the place, taking pictures as some celebrities walked down the red carpet to go inside the hall. When most of them saw Eric and Kimberly, they approached them to exchange pleasantries with them.
"Meet my girlfriend, Kimberly. Baby, I'm sure I don't need to introduce most of them to you," Eric said, while Kimberly beamed with pleasure as she shook hands with the men and embraced the ladies.
"The show is about to start, we should go inside," Eric suggested as they all trooped inside.
"I didn't realize you're so popular," Kimberly whispered to him.
"I've met most of them at one point or the other, but they know I don't like my pictures being taken, so they respect my privacy," Eric whispered back as he led her inside, her arm on the crook of his hand.
