Hello dolls, I couldn't let you wait.

Enjoy...

Sophia Pov

I kept crying my eyes out. My mind had gone completely blank not being able to recall all the soothing words he was showering me with. Somehow I was back to that broken weak girl laying at the hospital bed begging the doctors and nurses to end her pain and suffering by killing her. After God knows how long he pulled away, his shirt drenched with my tears and all crumpled up as I held it tightly, yet he let me stay in that position till I was even tired to open my eyes. I felt him tuck me into the bed and soon I drifted into a deep dreamless sleep.

I woke up feeling very tired and sore. But somehow I felt better! Maybe saying it out loud and grasping the reality of the matter made me come to terms with the fact that I am not as strong as I believe to be or that by not talking or acknowledging it, it won't just disappear into thin air. Turning around I saw I was alone... All alone...

What did you expect? My conscious nagged at me

Sitting on the bed and stretching my arms I noticed Theodore sitting on the couch.

"Aaah!" I screeched as I was taken by surprise.

"What are you doing here?" I gulped visibly.

"I live here, remember?" He said in a calm voice yet taking my shaken appearance into account.
He had showered and was wearing a clean shirt but I could tell that he hadn't slept not even for a minute.

"Sorry" I said as I hung my head low.

In an instant he was beside me on the bed.

"Never, repeat those words to me" he ordered tightly.

Lifting my chin with his finger he said the most dreaded words ever.

"We need to Talk" He addressed my worst fears.

"Okay...er.. I am listening" I replied softly as I started to look anywhere but him.

But he was having none of it.

"Look at me Sophia, don't look away. Never look away" He ordered in a firm voice.

"I am listening" I stated while meeting his penetrating gaze.

"We both know I tricked you into the contract, I am not proud of it nor am I ashamed, but that doesn't change the fact it was without your consent. Correct?" He asked

"Correct" I whispered.

"Good" He exhaled deeply.

"But along the line you got abroad and wanted it as well correct"

"Correct" I whispered.

"So taking into view all the new details, I think it is only right, that I give you the option of tearing this contract right here and right now" My eyes started tearing up and I tried to look away.

Of course you want out now. Why would anyone want to be with me. My ugly conscious kept reminding me

He must have felt my train of thoughts because he added.
