Sheo's Story

Chapter Forty-Six

Shai's POV:

Thing have never been better with me and Theo, the last week since he's been with me has been perfect, we're both putting more of an effort into caring about each other's lives, and any minute I spend away from him I want him back. I can tell we're one of those couples who get on everybody's nerves because we just can't keep away from each other, but I don't care. The only person I care about right now is my amazing Theo, and he's right here with me feeling exactly the same. I couldn't be luckier. It's not long now until we can go home and pack for London, the thought of that keeps me happy when things are getting harder on set. Don't get me wrong, I've had an amazing time filming with Ansel and spending time with John Green but I just can't wait to get home now. My hotel room is slightly smaller than the one I had whilst filming for Divergent, but it's just big enough for both Theo and myself, I've managed to totally forget about everything that happened when we were separate and focus on our future together, because that's what matters now. I come out of my room to see Theo standing looking out of the window at the traffic below us, I slowly walk over to him wondering if I should interrupt his thought, but I continue towards him. I stand next to him and also look down at the traffic, it all looks so small from up here, like mini toy cars I used to have when I was little. Theo wraps and arm around my waist and pulls me closer to him, and I slip my hand in his back pocket resting my head on his shoulder. We both stare in silence, comforted by the sound of our breathing so calmly in time with one another.

"Wake up Shai" I hear a low voice in my ear. I groan and open my eyes looking around me, forgetting for a second where I was, "it's 6:30 in the evening Shai, you need to eat and I think we should go out somewhere." I rub my eyes to see clearer and I can see his beautiful face glowing orange from the sunset which shines directly into my window. I lean up kiss him quickly, and embrace him in a tight, warm hug. "Where do you want to go?" I reply, realising I hadn't responded to his offer. "I was thinking we could go to the Italian down the road, it's close enough to walk to" and I nod, I'd been wanting to go there since I arrived but I didn't find myself with the time. I crawl out of bed and have a wash in the bathroom to cool me down from my nap, when I reappear Theo's changed into some black, skinny jeans, a white t-shirt and a blue undone shirt on top, he looks so casual but so smart as well. It makes me smile and I can tell by his smile back that he feels like we're rekindling again too. I love this man so much and it makes me so happy when he knows that.

Theo's POV:

Shai looks so beautiful, I want to remind her tonight how much I love her. Her short hair makes her look so much younger and cheekier, just like her personality, I've told her every day since we've been here how much it suits her. We walk down the street to the small Italian restaurant, some people stop and stare or ask if our relationship is true and we tell them the truth, but once we get to the restaurant I ask if we can sit alone. I don't want Shai getting stressed by the end of the night.
We sit on our own secluded table, and I pour out some champagne for us both. "You look beautiful" I say, telling the truth and I see her blush. She smiles whilst looking down reminding me how flawless she can be. "Thank you" she replies and I raise my glass to tap it with hers. She reads through the menu and the waiter comes to us a few minutes later. She orders some fancy pasta dish and I order a pizza. It makes us laugh as they're really 'us' things to buy.

The meal was so perfect, and shai got a phone call saying we should be able to go home next week, so a massive weight has lifted off our shoulders. I really think we're going to be something special.
