Be My Baby ( A Sheo Story)

Chapter 4: Theo

I wake up in someone's arms and immediately start to panic.
"What's wrong?" I hear a voice ask me. I recognize this voice as Daren, thank god.
"Nothing" I turn around and kiss Daren on his lips while I mumble 'Good Morning, Good morning"
I say that line every morning to set a positive mood for the day.
I stop kissing Daren when I realise that he isn't kissing me back. Am I bad at kissing? Or does he realise that he doesn't want me.
Daren looks at me in confusion.
"Daren, what's wrong?" I run a hand through his hair.
"I-I just thought that- that yesterday was just a hook up and that we wouldn't talk let go kiss after yesterday night." He explains to me while rubbing his neck.
Ouch, I actually thought that we could maybe, maybe maybe date but apparently not cause he only thinks that I'm a hook up, great! It's not that I think of dating the first guy I kiss, but I've had a tiny crush on him for over a year now, and now I know him better he's super nice. Well, looks like he thinks differently.
"Oh" I say. I step out of the bathtub and straighten my shirt. "I'm sorry"
"No no, wait Shailene, I'm sorry I just assumed that. Sorry, please just, wait." He quickly says.
"Why did you assume that?" I ask him.
"Girls did that to me before so yeah....I'm so so sorry Shai" He says.
"Oh so you kissed a lot of girls at parties" The more he says, the more worse it gets.
"No absolutely not" he scratches the back of his neck again. "Only 2" He blushes. "But I didn't really like them and I do like you! It's just that all of my friends were hooking up with girls and I was not. So I tried to be cool and also hook up with girls but it's nothing for me. I'm more into dating and stuff." He smiles.
"Soooooooo, I'm not just a hook up to you?" I aks him. I'm slightly confused.
"No! God no" He also steps out of the bathtub "No you're much more! I honestly like you, at least from what I've heard from you" He trails of on the end of his sentence.
I giggle. "I like you too" I say and begin to walk slowly to him. And then I see something that is mega hot/cute.
"OMG YOU'RE BLUSHING" I wisper yell.
"No I'm not" Daren laughs while he rubs his cheeks.
"Yes you are" I giggle and kiss both of his cheeks.

He chuckles at my move and when I try to pull back, he holds me close to his chest.
"I wanna know you better. You know, I can't date a girl I've been looking at for 1 1/2 year but only talked to like what, 2 times? I just can't" He explains.
"Actually you can." I tell him, looking up so I'm looking at his face. I give him a quick kiss on his lips.
He chuckles again. "Okay yeah I can but I don't want to. What if me or you realise we don't like the other?" he tells me.
"Okaaaay sounds fair. So what do you suggest for us to do?" I say in a funny voice. I hope we can date and stuff. Aaaahhhhgggg finally a boyfriend.
"We should go on a date tomorrow night. I'll come to your dorm at 7." He smiles "Only-if-you-have-time! If-you have-other-plans-we-can-reschedule-it, but-it'd-be-nice-if-you-could-come" He says that all in one breath. I almost laugh at that but this is probably not the right moment to do that.
"No dude, I'm totally okay with tomorrow, 7 o' clock right? No no it's perfect." I tell him with a smile. Zoë is going crazy and will be so proud when she hears what I've done!

Ping!

I look at my phone. I sigh when
i see a message from Theo. I'm not really in the mood for his 'where were you' and 'are you okay' messages.

SHAI! Where the fuck are you? Weren't we supposed to walk to class together? Not that I can't walk alone or something I just wanted to talk and explain shit to you. I'm at your dorm and no ones here?! Hello?! I'm sorry about yesterday okay! But class starts in 10 minutes and if you aren't here in 5 I'm going.
Just, come. - Theo

"SHIT!" I curse out loud.
"What's wrong?!" Daren panicks.
"I've class in 10 minutes and I have a test omg" I almost cry. It's not that I can't get 1 bad mark but my parents are going to kill me. I run my hands through my hair and my breathing starts to increase. Soon I'm hyperventilating. I should've never gone to the party yesterday. Fuck Zoë.
"Shai shai shai, calm down okay. It'll be alright. Go to your dorm, dress up and go to class. You always learn and don't even think that going to the party was a bad idea! Otherwise we were still strangers... At least I'm glad with my decisions. Now hurry and do me proud!" He laughs. I giggle, I'm happy that he knows how to lighten my mood.
"Kay, see you tomorrow" I give him a kiss and run as fast as possible to my dorm.

"Theo I'm so so sorry that I came this late! I'm gonna dress real fast. Wait here." I don't even let him say anything, I have to be fast. I brush my teeth and dress up in 5 minutes. While I'm walking to Theo I do my hair in a knot. "Let's go" I breath out.
"Where were you? I've tried calling you a million times!" Theo exclaims. He seems slightly annoyed.
"I'm so sorry... I slept over at somebody's" I almost whisper.
"Who's"
"At Daren's dorm" I say. I'm scared that Theo'll get mad.
"WHAT? Okay I said you should ask him to the movies, not to have sex with him!" Theo yells. A couple people look up at us and I feel embarrassed.
"Theo, I haven't slept with anybody and I won't for a very long time." I say in disgust, why is that the only thing he thinks about.
"Well I bet he wants to! And did you drink? Your breath smelled like alcohol earlier" He eyes me suspiciously.
"How could you smell that? I had one drink?!" I state.
"Seriously? Shai this is not you. What's wrong with you?? Where is Shailene? You would never even touch alcohol? Who forced you" He laughs. I stop.
"Listen Theo, Nobody forced me. I just wanted to have some fun and it's not like you and Ruth haven't been to a party before! So stop telling me what I can and can't do and mind your own fucking business" I tell him. He looks at me with wide eyes. HA, he didn't see that comin'.

-------------------->

"OH MY FUCKING GOSH AAAAAAAAH" Zoë yells.
I just told her that I kissed Daren and she'a going crazy!
"I know right! It was a bit awkward in the beginning but when we watched the movie I felt really comfortable" I laugh "I'm so glad that at least one of my best friends likes that I have a date tomorrow"
"What do you mean?" Zoë asks completely dumbfounded.
"Theo got mad at me for kissing Daren! I don't get it! First Theo says that I should ask him to the movies with us and then he gets mad because I kiss Daren....." I explain.
"Oh come on the boy is just jealous" Zoë laughs but continues to speak when she sees my confused face "he is your best friend! You can't tell me that he never thought of you two dating, or that he never pictured you in some hot pink lingerie! But now there comes a boy who actually gets to see you in lingerie and gets to date you; it's weird for Theo too. He has got to deal with Daren" Zoë says.
I burst out laughing "Theo picturing me in lingerie, really? Plus I'm not even dating Daren"
"Yet"
"ZOË!!! I said that we'll see, what if I won't be in love with him?" I ask.

"Shai oh Shai. You don't have to be in love with your first boyfriend. I've had enough boyfriends and never really 'been in love'. Just have fun girl. Take a look at Ruth and Theo, 6 years together and they don't 'love' eachother, at least Theo doesn't." Zoë says.
She's right. I should have fun and live these years. I'm 18 and I should do what I want to do. Well, not right now. I should learn for my test.
"you done?" I ask Zoë. We were having lunch at a healthy tiny restaurant because it was my turn to choose.
"Yep. I gotta go, Miles wanted me in his dorm the last 20 minutes of our lunch break thingy so I have to go. BYE GIRL" She screams and gives me a wink and smirk afterwards.
"Iew, Zoë I don't have to know what you're doing with Miles, iew. Be safe"
This apparently made her laugh because she is laughing her ass of.
"We'll" she wipes her tears "I should be the one telling you that. Be safe tomorrow with Daren"
Before I can even respond she is gone. It's disgusting to picture in my head what she might be doing in a couple minutes. Only thing I know for sure is that I really need to learn for my test......
