Sadie Myers.

I felt an arm drape over my side, pulling me closer and up against a bare chest.

Theo.

His chest against my back, the heat from his body warming me. It was something I'd never get used to.

I laid my hand on top of his, moving my fingers between his and holding his hand like I did every morning.

He breathed out and his breath fanned across the back of my neck. I smiled and opened my eyes, looking at nothing but his room.

A small pain was coming from the side of my breast and I closed my eyes again, remembering the events of last night.

The way that he said he wanted only me made my heart flutter and my stomach race with butterflies. It was like they were racing and trying to get to a flower, but there wasn't one. So they were just flying around in circles.

Theo's thumb moved up and down mine, indicating that he was awake. I let go and rolled over, trying my hardest not to irritate the wound that I had.

I smiled as he did, keeping my eyes closed and his arm draped over my side but letting his hand trace up and down my back.

"Morning," I muttered, kissing his cheek and sitting up, throwing my legs over my side of the bed to go to the bathroom.

I stayed there for a second, taking breaths as the pain started to form in my hips and thighs. I took one deep breath and stood up, shaking slightly.

There was definitely no way I'd make it through classes. But luckily, it was Saturday.

We had fallen asleep and slept through the night, not waking up once.

When I made it to the bathroom, I shut the door and leaned against it, trying hard not to just fall to the floor.

Quickly, I brushed my teeth and let my hair out of my ponytail. I looked at myself in the mirror, hair messy and makeup smudged. I washed my face, brushed my hair, and walked back into the bedroom.

Theo was sitting up, his back against the headboard. He stood up and smiled as he walked past me, brushing his teeth. I laid on the bed and just waited.

Theo then came back out and leaned against the doorframe. "You okay?"

I nodded, "I'm fine. Just a bit sore but it'll pass."

He nodded, walking back into the room and sitting in the same position he was before he went to the bathroom.

"Was what you said last night true?" I asked, messing with the sheets.

"Said what?" He brushed my hair off my shoulder.

"About me being the only one you want?" I kept my eyes away from his, hoping that what he said was true and if it wasn't, then I was ready to let the rejection hit me.

"Sadie Myers," Theo spoke and lifted my chin, making me look at him "I wouldn't lie about something like that to you. Therefore, it's true."

I smiled as he dragged his thumb across my bottom lip and then resting his hand on my cheek.

I sat up and crawled onto his lap, one leg on each side of his. His hands rested on my hips but his eyes stayed on mine, drifting to my lips every so often.

He then took the time to look down and he chuckled "Ah, the memories."

I furrowed my brows, "What do you mean?"
