Him or me?

Him

"Him or me?"

Liam's POV:
I looked at her for a moment. I'm tired of her acting like I do everything wrong in the relationship. I'm tired of her making me feel guilty for liking someone who deserves more than she ever will.

I look behind me at Theo to see him staring at me carefully. He's got a look showing me that he also wants to know my answer. I studied his face for a moment.

I saw the stone wall he puts up, but then saw beneath it. I saw his beautiful eyes that held so much pain, guilt, and exhaustion. He has done everything he can to change. He deserves so much.

I know who I want.

I look back at Hayden.

"Him." I say.

Her eyes widen, as she looks me up and down. She turns to Theo and does the same.

"Ya know, you two deserve each other." She says with a scoff, and a hint of disgust in her voice.

I smirked as she started to walk away.

"Assholes!" She yelled as she walked through the door. She slammed it shut behind her.

Once she was gone the air was clear and I felt a sense of comfort. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

I slowly turned around to see Theo staring at me with the biggest smile on his face.

"What?" I said with a laugh when I saw him smiling.

He has the best smile.

"You chose me." He said in a whisper.

I smiled.

"Yeah, I chose you." I said, grinning.

The next thing I knew...

His arms were around my waist as he lifted me into the air in the tightest hug I've ever received.

He swayed back and forth, nuzzling his face into my stomach.

I giggled at the feeling.

"Theoooo! Stop!" I laughed.

He shook his head.

"Put me down, T." I said with a laugh.

He sighed before gently placing me back on the ground.

I wrapped my arms around his neck as his hands rested on my waist.

"Why'd you choose me?" He asked.

I stared into his eyes for a minute.

"Because. You're who I love. Not her." I said with a small smile.

He grinned before pulling me by my waist flush against his body.

He put our foreheads together.

"Well.. I love you too." He said.

My eyes widened.

"Did I say that out loud?" I said, not realizing I told him I loved him.

"Mhm!" He said nodding his head against mine.

I let out a nervous laugh.

"Does this mean... we can be... together?" He asked.

I thought for a minute.

I slowly nodded my head, mesmerized by his eyes.

"YES!" He yelled.

I burst out laughing.

I should've never gotten with Hayden. Theo was right in front of me the entire time.
