Sheo's Story

Chapter Twenty

Theo's POV:

It's time to get the limo for the premier. I'm wearing a black suit, white shirt and black tie. I want to keep it plain and smart. I knock on Shai's door shaking off any last minute nerves, because I know I need to be brave for her. She opens the door and all words leave my mind. She looks indescribable. "Y-you look... You look astonishing. I'm speechless Shailene." She blushes and pushes my shoulder "shut up Theo, you look gorgeous." I have no reply, she's breathtaking, and she doesn't even know it. She's in a golden dress making her skin tone and hair look amazing, and her make up artists have stayed ver y minimal which is perfect because you should never hide such beauty. I hold out my arm as Shai holds it and I enhance my British accent as I say "Are you ready my lady?" pecking her on the cheek, I can feel her shaking and hear her thinking. She doesn't have to speak for me to know what she's thinking. We get to the elevator and we're met by our publicists and a few security guards. I can tell by Shai's expression she already thinks this is being over dramatic. She sees everybody as equal and doesn't think she deserves somebody protecting her. I can't help but disagree, I protect Shai with my everything and if anything ever happened to her I would never forgive myself. We get into the limo and Shai sits right up close to me, and we enjoy the last minutes of privacy we'll have for a while. I tell her how special she is, and how much of an inspiration she is to everyone, how everyone loves her for who she is, so she can't mess up, she just needs to be herself. I feel her muscles relaxing as we talk about the film, and our favourite lines. It makes her laugh so much, and I treasure every moment. We finally pull up, and the flashing of cameras begin, and I must admit, I'm so nervous to open our car door.

Shai's POV:

Theo opens the door and waits for me to get out. I see the everybody around me but I focus on Theo, I focus on the way he's greeting the fans, the interviewers, I try to mirror his actions, smiling and waving, asking how the fans were, until I felt myself start coming through. I had good conversations with people, some people already know about my herbs and natural remedies and started asking about them. I love how interested people are, it's wonderful. Me and Theo join to start interviews. The questions all consisted of our chemistry and if we're friends off set. Although it was intended, no one asked if we were actually together. The amount of times I've been asked what faction I'd be in was starting to get slightly annoying though, you'd think people would be more original. I hear someone call from the crowd 'is Sheo real?' and I look at Theo, Theo laughs and asks what Sheo is, whilst the fan is explaining I can't help but smile, the fans like us together, would it be so bad if they new the truth then? I never knew what a ship name was until tonight, I never knew me and Theo had one either.

A few hours go by of the same stuff, and as intimidating as it all was, I really enjoyed getting to know new people and having the experience. It was amazing, but my feet kill, and all I want is a nice hot bath, and to think about all the wonderful fans I met today.
