I clutch to the warmth that tries to leave me and whine when my attempts fail, I hear a deep sleepy voice says "you want breakfast don't you?" I slowly open my eyes and smile with a nod, I stretch as he leans over me and kisses my forehead

I hear his footsteps lead out of the room and I can't wipe the smile off my face, I hug the pillow next to me and feel my face grow red with heat. I'm in to much of shock to do anything else, did that actually happen last night? Or was it some crazy amazing dream?

All trace of Theo's horrible touch is gone from my skin and replaced with soft kisses and caresses from Vincent, my skin feels light and tingly. I didn't know that much pure pleasure and happiness could come out of such a thing. I lay on my back and smile up at the ceiling. I close my eyes and think back on last night

He loves me

Someone actually loves me, the words replay in my head like it happened seconds ago. I still hear the sincerity in his voice and the pureness in his golden eyes. My heart swells so much I swear it will bust from my rib cage, it pounds and feels more alive and full than I've ever felt. Is this the type of love and feeling I read about in the books I love so much, is this the same feeling Mr. Rochester and Jane feel for each other or Elizabeth and Darcy feel? Honestly I thought it was just in books but at this point and how I'm feeling right now my heart could explode making me think that type of love could be real and happening to me.

But at a small voice in my head my happiness turns to worry, I have to go back to Theo. I've spent a day away from him, he'll at some point call my parents and get them involved, if he hasn't already, and them being the dramatic people they are they would probably call the police and once I show up they'd force me to stay. I can't hide out here in my own little world with Vincent. I have to go back to the other life, real life. All I know is I can't live that way much longer, I love Vincent and he loves me. I can't keep pretending with Theo, it kills me to be with him and now that I know what true loves feels like I can't let it go.

I just need to tell my parents, soon, not today, I need to go to Theo, talk to him and figure out how I need to handle everything. I need to convince my parents to let me leave him or just do it myself. I wish it was as easy as staying here and never having to see those three people again but it's not.

I sigh and sit up walking slowly into the bathroom and wash up. Once I've finished I look at the clothes Vincent got me yesterday, I guess I could throw on a pair of jeans, the shirt is- I shake my head and pick up the light wash skinny jeans. They fit well, but his T-shirt hangs well over my thighs, I would change but I bring the hem up to my nose and breath in the amazing smell.

I throw my light hair up and take a deep breath, I just need to enjoy the moments until I have to leave. I walk lightly out into in living room to see Vincent turned around at the stove. I laugh quietly as he stands in only his boxers, the sight of his strong back muscles makes me want to stand here all day.

He turns around and smiles "I hope you like eggs" he says "because that's all I have" he says and I laugh

"That's fine" I say walking over to him

He sets down the pan and wraps his arm around me, pulling me to him, I laugh and hug his waist as he stirs the eggs "Good morning" he bends down and pecks my lips, I blush and wiggle my way out of his arms

"I would make some coffee but I have no idea where anything is" I say leaning against the counter

He shakes his head "I've got it sit down, I wouldn't want you messing up my coffee" he looks over his shoulder at me with a smirk

"Because there's so many ways to mess up black coffee" I giggle and make my way over to bar instead of the table so I can still watch him.

He gets down plates from a high cabinet and piles on eggs to both his and mine. He sets down the plates at the table and when I get up to walk over he rushes over to me, picks me up and walks me over to the table while I laugh loudly in his arms. He sets me down on his knee and pulls the plates in front of us.
