       "Hold me tight and never let me go"

Shailene's POV:

The sun shines in my face when I open my eyes. The warmth hitting my bed. It has been three days since my mom got her surgery. She has been getting better each day but she is still in a lot of pain.

Haft of my family came out to support my mom and take her. I wanted to help out my mother too, since I took a week off from filming.

I decided to take a nice warm shower this morning. I feel the water sprinkling down onto my skin from the shower head. I rub the washcloth that is mixed with soap all over my body.

After I'm done, I shut the shower off and I step out of it. I grab the towel that's on the rack and dry myself off and end up getting changed.

I see Theo still asleep in my bed, once I walk out of the bathroom. I smile at the sight and I sit down on the bed next to him. When he sleeps he looks so peaceful and way younger. I think it's just adorable.

I run my small fingers through his curly thick hair. He chuckles and opens his eyes. "Morning beautiful." He smiles

"Morning handsome." I grin. I lay down next to him and he pulls me against his chest. He moves his head up next to my hair and sniffs. "You smell good." He murmurs.

I let out a small laugh. "You decided to sniff me why?" I ask. He shrugs his shoulders. "I don't know I just wanted to smell my girlfriend." I slap his shoulder gently. "Your so weird."

"And your so cute." He tickles my nose with his. I decide to lay on top of him and Theo kisses my hairline.

Theo has been so supportive with me helping my mother. He also has been helping her. It's like he's already married to me.

"How is your mom doing?" He asks in his deep accent. "She's getting better, but she's still in a lot of pain." I say.

Theo nods at me. My uncle is coming up today to help out. I remember my mother use to tell me stories when they were both little they use to fight over these stupid things. It kinda reminds me of what me and Tanner would do.

"My uncle is coming over today, to take care of my moms so we got the whole day to ourselves." I mention.

Theo smiles at me and then fits his mouth to mine. He kisses me with a little more passion and I feel him rest his hands on my hips.

I hear the door open. "Guys, break—" I hear my brother say. I turn around and throw a pillow at Tanners face.

"Get the hell out Tanner!" I yell. I get off Theo quickly and I feel my cheeks getting red. "I was just going to tell you guys breakfast is ready, but um I can see you guys are busy." Tanner chuckles.

"I said get out!" I yell. He quickly shuts the door and I sigh, feeling embarrassed. "Sorry about that, this isn't the first time he did this." I say.

Theo lets out a short laugh. "This isn't the first time this happened?" He wiggles his eyebrows. I remember a lot of times this happened Tanner walked on me, either I was changing or I was kissing my boyfriend. "Yeah," I blush.

Theo rubs me through my t-shirt on my back and pulls me to lay my head on his shoulder.

We are perfect

Theo and I decided to go swimming today, in my backyard. Yes my home has a pool, my mom bought this house because it had an in ground pool for me and Tanner. But of course I'm not home anymore, Tanner is with mom.

I'm sitting in the edge of the pool, only with my legs in, since the pool is kinda chilly. It has been raining for the past couple of days so the water needs to warm up again.

"Cmon Shai, just jump in, it'll be quick." Theo says while swimming. I shake my head at him. "No Theo, let me warm up first."

Theo swims over to the latter and gets out of the pool where he is dripping wet of course. Then I feel him pick me up and he throws me into the pool. My body hitting the water.

Once I come back to surface, I take a gulp of air. I just see Theo across from me; laughing.

"You asshole!" I screech, splashing him. I can't believe he just did that and threw me into the pool. I did not want to get my hair wet.

"I did not want to get my hair wet and now I have to get another shower again!" I whine.

"Hey if it makes you feel any better, you can get a shower with me." He wiggles his eyebrows. I slap his chest gently and Theo pretends to whine in pain.

"Hey what was that for?" He whines. I swim near the wall of the pool. I cross my arms. "That was for throwing me into the pool."

"Okay I'm sorry." He says. I just roll my eyes at him. He frowns at me, knowing he did something wrong. "Baby, I'm really sorry, I really am."

I playfully hug him. "I know you are, just messing with with you." I kiss his cheek.

Theo leans his forehead against mine and I wrap my hands around his neck. I hear the backyard door open. "Mom says you better not be having sex in the pool or you both are going to have to clean it from top to bottom!" Tanner shouts.

I roll my eyes, I can't believe my mother would think I would be having sex in the pool when the living room faces the backyard where they could see us.

"Where not having sex in the pool Tanner. Now leave!" I shout back.

I face back to Theo. "Hold me tight and never let me go." I say.

"Never leaving you." He kisses my cheek.
