"Girl when I'm not with you, I miss you."
|Nova Sinclair |
A heavy boulder is beating against my head as I wake up. I groan a little, trying to open my eyes without my head aching.
Soft sunlight hit my eyes from the open window, white curtains framing it. I look around and see mine and Theo's clothes everywhere.
Shit.
We– We did not.
But we did.
The images of last night flood my brain– nails stretching against his back, sweat covering our bodies, heavy breathing– oh my God.
Underneath the covers, I'm naked. Extremely, extremely naked, a weight presses on my stomach and my eyes find Theo's hand.
Looking up, I see him sleeping right beside me, the sunlight making his hair look almost blonde which is flying in every direction.
The pain in my head grows heavier, we definitely shouldn't have drunk that much.
Theo looks peaceful, eyelashes grazing his cheekbones and his chest moving rhythmically. I reach my hand and brush some hair away from forehead.
He's looks so good even while sleeping, man.
The sunlight hits his face at the most excruciating angles– the slight curve of his nose, tips of his golden hair– hell, I can even notice slight freckles across his cheek.
His eyes flutter open as I touch his cheek, light green eyes illuminate in the sunlight. A dimple forms beneath my hand as Theo smiles drowsily.
"Hey, mon amour."
At that moment, I felt the world slip away. We weren't in Prague or any other place. It was our own world, one we made for ourselves.
"Good morning." I reply.
"I–" Of course, the heavenly time has to end with someone banging on the door.
"Open up, fuckers!" It was Naina. "Enough sleeping, Mrs. Williams is going to kill you guys!"
Theo slips on a shirt and sweats and opens the door, they exchange a few words before he closes the door again. "Basically, Mrs. Williams knows we went to the club last night. And she's fuming."
