Theo's POV:

As I look at her sleeping I realize I will never be able to let her go. But I have to. She will never be able to live and experience life as she should if I'm around. Her eyes flutter open and a small smile plays on her face. "Good morning," her voice is quiet but not quite a whisper.

I run my thumb across her bottom lip, examining her face, and taking in all of the beautiful details. "Good morning." She doesn't seem to notice that I'm acting different this morning and I can't decide if that's a good or bad thing. Fuck, I love her so much.

A voice pulls me out of my thoughts and I realize that it's hers, "Did you hear me?" She raises an eyebrow.

"No, Sorry love. What did you say?" I look her in the eyes to show her I'm listening.

"I said I'm sorry about last night. I don't like when we fight..." Her lip begins to quiver and I know she's thinking about what I said last night.

"Baby, I am so sorry... I love you so God damn much and I got out of line last night. You are not to blame and I hope you can forgive me. I know I always promise to do better but this time I mean it." I look up and she's gone. What? "Baby?" I frantically search the apartment for her.

Where the hell did she go? I didn't even notice that she left the bed. "Brea! Where are you?" I hear her voice but I don't see her. "Brea?"

"It's your fault Theo, you made me leave. It's all your fault." My eyes widen in shock and the walls around me begin to melt. No really they're actually melting. What the hell is going on? The floor starts to disappear and I begin to fall. There is no end. I will be stuck in this abyss for the remainder of my life. I messed up. I lost her. It is all my fault.. No!

My eyes fly open and I'm alone in my bedroom. It was just a dream.. But she really is gone.. What have I done? I fucked up so bad this time.

Brea's POV:
High school needs to end already. I have yet to meet one person that I tolerate and I am sick of this school. Only a few more months and I'm out of this shit hole.

"Class this is Ashlynn, she is our new student." Mr. Kendrick's gestures to the girl next to him and she smiles.

"Just call me Ash, please." This girl seems sweet but like she's hiding something.

"Alright, Ash. Take a seat wherever you'd like." She nods and heads the the empty seat next to me.

"I'm Brea, so you're new here huh? Did you move here or transfer from another school?"

"I moved. My parents got divorced so I moved here to live with my grandparents for a while. This was my hometown, now I'm back." She smiles at me the entire time she talks. This girl is too nice for my liking.

"Breanna I know you like making new friends, but if you and Ashlynn could pay attention then we could move on with todays lesson."

Shit. "Sorry Mr. Kendricks." Yay another student that I won't be able to tolerate.

As soon as the bell rings for lunch I gather my things and leave. I hope I don't have any other classes with this girl, she talks too much. You ask her one question and then the next second she's going on about World War II or something. Weird.

The lunch room is packed, as always, and I'm forced to wait in a line that goes clear across the lunch room. Maybe I shouldn't eat lunch today, I only have two class periods left so I'll just eat at home. I turn to leave, but I'm stopped by another person. We collide into each other and his books hit the floor.

"Oh shit! Sorry love, are you okay?" Love? His accent is weird.

"Yeah, I'm okay. Are you?" I ask as I hand him his books.

"Never better." His smile instantly makes me smile. "What's your name love?"

"My names Breanna, you can call me Brea."

"Brea you say?" He bites his lip and I take in a sharp breath. "What a lovely name."

Why am I sparking up a conversation with this guy? How is he even noticing my existence? All I know is that my heart is beating out of my chest. This guy is perfection, while I stand here awkwardly like a potato.

"My name is Theodore, by the way. But, please do call me Theo."  

This guy is beautiful. Everything about him seems to be made without a flaw, but you know deep down there is something about him that breaks through that "perfect" barrier.

"Well love I'm sorry again for running into like that. Hopefully I will be able to see you again sometime soon?" He smiles and bites his lip again. Shit.

"S-sure. I'd like that." I smile back and try to hide the fact that I'm blushing. This dude would never be attracted to me, he was just being nice. I have to keep telling myself that. If you don't get your hopes up then you won't get let down.

Theo's P.O.V:

"Hey dude! Who was that girl you were talking to? She doesn't look like the type of girl you would normally go for." Alex says and I glare.

"I don't have a "type" of girl I normally go for. I go for personality."

"And tits." Alex chuckles to himself. Of course he thinks he's funny. I just scoff and try to ignore him.

That girl did seem different. I haven't felt that nervous in front of a girl like that before. The way I talked to her was weird too. I called her love so much. Well Brea, looks like you're my new target.
