SHAI P.O.V
I burst up , my heart pounding and tears running down my cheeks. No, Shai it was just a dream. I sob even harder, remembering the past events in my dream where Theo had beaten me and kissed another girl in front of me. The ways to hurt me beyond repair.
We weren't dating though. But my heart still throbbed for him every day, for him to touch my skin and be there with me every single step of the way. I sigh and breathe in and out. I check the clock to see what time it is, and it reads : 12:08. Am. Good. I could go back to sleep.
At 3 exactly I wake again with the same nightmare. I decided to go where the nightmares can't usually haunt me. Theo's hotel room. I pick up a spare room card key and head for the door before throwing on a robe. I knock on Theo's door lightly. He comes in slippers & a robe and his face softens when he sees my bloodshot eyes and red face from crying. "Shai." He gasps and I suck in a deep breathe. "Come in."
I explain my dream, leaving out the kissing part. "Oh Shai. I would never hurt you." He cradles my face in his hands and hugs me. "Thanks Theo." I blush then nod towards the door. "I better be going." "No, stay here. I'll take couch ok?" "Theo." "Go on Shai." I sigh and head towards the bed. I wrap the blankets around me and fall asleep. 4:30 am I wake up crying again. Theo is beside me in a flash. "Shai." He whispers, shushing me. "I'll stay here."
We lay together our breath falling in perfect sync. "Thank you Theo." I whisper in a hushed voice. "No problem." About 10 minutes later I suppose he thought I fell asleep because he whispered to me quietly. "I love you."
