Shai's POV:
"Hey hey heey" I hear Theo's voice say. I'm too busy to respond. Busy looking at Darren, one of the hottest boys I've ever seen, and busy with packing my books... not a good combination.
"Watcha looking at?" Theo asks. He follows my gaze and sees that I'm looking at Darren. A smile forms on his lips. I let out an awkward cough and pack all my books in my bag.
"You should ask him to come with us tonight, to the movies." Theo says. I sigh. "No Theo, I want it to be just us tonight" I say. It's been 5 weeks since me and Theo did something together and that's way too long in my eyes. We're currently walking out of the classroom."You really need to get a boyfriend, you're 18 and you haven't date anyone, ever" He says. I stop abruptly. "Theo, let me make this clear, I don't need anybody other than myself, so no I don't 'need' a boyfriend" I say. I'm so done with people saying that I need I boyfriend. Theo puts his hands up like he did nothing wrong and we continue walking.
"I didn't mean it the wrong way. I was just worrying about you. I mean, have you ever kissed a boy?" He asks.
"Yeah, once" I sigh "with you".
I blush. Yes, I've only kissed a boy once, and it wasn't even a real kiss, but it was a stage kiss for a play.
"Noooooo. Don't tell me the only time you've kissed a boy was with me, at that stupid play!" He says. I get the feeling that he is feeling sorry for me. A shy smile comes across my lips and I slap his shoulder.
"Yes, yes it was" I say. "And I'm proud of it. I'm just waiting for the perfect boy, do you think Ruth is the perfect girl for you?"
"Perfect girl my ass" He says. We both burst out laughing. Once we've catched our breath again he continues.
"No seriously, I don't know and I don't really care either. I like Ruth and I think she's hot and shit, but I don't really see a future with her youknow...." He says. I just nod. I don't think you should date someone when you don't see a future with them.
"I still think you should ask that Darren guy to the movie with us tonight." He finishes."Dude, why do you want me to ask someone with us tonight? I want it to just be us again!" I say. I stand with my arms crossed in front of my dorm door.
Theo is silent, scratching the back of his neck. He looks kinda cute when he does this, but I'm not saying that to him right now.
"Don't tell me you asked Ruth again to come with us. You've done this 8 times now!" I begin to raise my voice.
"I'm sorry but she's been complaining that I haven't been doing enough stuff with her. She even thought I was cheating on her with you for a moment. She is my girlfriend after all" he says "And don't raise your voice that much, because if you didn't realise it already, Ruth is in that room there"
That's right. Ruth, Theo's girlfriend, is my roommate. Not that I hate her, she's actually pretty nice when I'm alone around her. But when I'm together with Theo and her, or anybody, she is a huge attention seeker. It just annoys the shit out of me.
"I get that she is your girlfriend but I am your best friend. And I don't know if you noticed it, but we haven't done something together in 5 weeks because everytime we planned something, that were 8 times, Ruth had to come with us. And she is a very nice girl and sweet and loving blah blah blah, but I also want to spend some time with you. You are with her every minute , when you're not busy with school, doing who knows what! But you can't get one night, I'm asking you one freakin' night, to come to the movies with me? Just, ughhhh" I whisper-yell. I'm already sorry that I said that but it's kind of true. He is with her every second he can get, yet he tells me that he isn't in love with her. I don't get him sometimes. I just want him to hang out with me again. But lately he's been acting weird like he doesn't want to hang out with me anymore.
"It almost seems like you don't want to hang out with me anymore, and if that's the case, you can just tell me. I won't be mad." I tell him. I feel really bad right now because Theo is looking really sad. I turn around and open my dorm door. Only to be meeten by an oh-so-happy Ruth. I actually want to turn around and get out but I couldn't."Oh hey sha- THEO!" She yells Theo's name. She immediately runs in Theo's arms and he spins her around. Theo is already smiling wildly, I feel like a terrible friend to make him feel sad.
"I didn't know you were coming" She tells Theo. "Neither did I actually" Theo laughs. Now they both laugh at his stupid joke and after that they stare into each others eyes. After a minute of eye sex, they begin to kiss eachother. Not that I have problems with that, not at all, If they like eachother they can show affection. But not that I CAN SEE THEIR FUCKING TONGUES GOING IN TO EACHOTHERS MOUTH. This is disgusting. I awkwardly cough but they don't stop. I throw my bag on my bed after I grab an apple out of it. I take a huge bite of it and slowly eat it while I'm still looking at Ruth and Theo. I wonder if they even realise I'm here. I wonder how it is to kiss someone like that.
"Okay I'm off to Zoë's" I say and walk out of my dorm. It isn't not until the last second that they stop kissing.
"Be here on time for the movie, right?" Theo says, giving me a wink. I look at him in disguist.
"Right"//////////////////////////////////
"Alohaaaaa Shailene" Zoë greets me. I look at her with shock.
"Okay since when do you say 'aloha'?" I ask her.
"Since you said it!" She laughs.
"Did I actually say it, or write it? I forgot" I laugh.
"Both I guess. Anyways come in come in." She takes my hand and pulls me inside."So what are we going to do" I ask. Bad question. Zoë gets a list of her couch and begins to read it.
"First you're going to take a bath because I already did. Then I'll do your nails. After that we'll make dinner and eat it while watching a movie. And in the end we'll go to this party in Ansel's dorm and we'll get you a smoking hot guy..... Oh and I was wondering if we would also get some tattoos!" she smiles. This girl is too happy.
"I'm okay with everything, try to get a boy like me, but I'm not, I repeat, NOT, getting tattoos."
"Pfffff, well, I'm getting a tattoo anyway" Zoë says. She already had a couple tattooes and it's not that I don't like them, it just doesn't suit me.Two and a half hours later me and Zoë are eating our delicious salad on the couch while watching magic Mike. Just like Theo, Zoë thinks I need some action in my life. I just don't get why my life should need more action.
I sit quietly on the couch eating my food when I hear a phone. It must be Zoë's phone tho.
"Shai, its yours" Zoë says. Okay, so it's not Zoë's phone.I pick up my phone, it's Theo.
{Shailene
Theo}
Shailene speakingYeah I know who I am calling, anyways; where are you!?
I'm at Zoë's
The movie is starting in 10 minutes, Shai I'm sorry about earlier. I forgot you were there but it won't happen again! I just got caught up in the moment.
I don't need an explanation, I'm not going. Go to that stupid movie with your stupid girlfriend and make out or something, I don't care.
Theo says nothing, and this makes me feel really bad.
Okay sorry, she is not stupid and neither is the movie but I'm not in the mood okay?
I totally get it. I'll make time for us Shai, I promise. See you.
Bye
But Theo already hung up before I could get the 'bye' out.
"OKAY! Shai get dressed, after that we're going to get me my tattoo. Then I'll dress you up and after that I'll get you your boyyyyy" Zoë screams.
Yeey. I love Zoë, I really do. But I don't want to leave this couch now.
I let out a annoyed sigh and stand up.
"Shailene Woodley, don't act like that, I'm only doing this for you!" Zoë says.
"Yes mom!" I laugh.
With that, I leave the room and get myself dressed.
