CHAPTER 16

-Casey POV-

We stay in a hotel room, and it's not bad, okay this room is a really fancy room for a cheap one. When we get in and set down our bags and he wraps his arms around me. I put my head on his chest, and we lay down on the bed.

"You make me feel safe, at home. Like I never have any troubles." I say breathing in his scent.

He does the same thing which seems to comfort him too. "You make me forget about my bad life in New York. Like the only person I have is you, and I would want to keep it that way."

"You would?" I say almost in tears.

"I don't want to share you with anyone. I want you to be mine and only mine." He says.

"You really love me don't you?"

"I have never loved anyone more, including my family, than I will ever love you." He says.

I'm crying and laughing into his shirt. He hugs me tighter and I hug him back.

"I love you too. I don't want to love anyone else, other then you. Your like my sun, and my stars, and my sky all combined. And you want me back. I love you." I say as he hugs me tighter, again. I finally snuggle up and I drift off in his arms.

I'm laying with Tobias. I get up because someone is at the window. I open it and it's Caleb.

"Caleb what the fuck!"

"I just had to tell you to be careful. Don't trust him."

"Who?"

"Peter."

"Caleb wait..." I say as he leaves I get up to open the door that has been knocked on.

I see Peter. He has flowers. I turn around and Peter is laying in the bed instead of Tobias. I scream.

I wake up, still cuddling, and it's night time. I shake Tobias to get up, and he opens his eyes quickly looking around.

"What happened?" He asks me. He puts his hand on my back, which actually seems to help me calm down.

"Peter." Is all I can mange to get out.

"Who's that ass, I'll kill him." Tobias says getting really tense.

"Tobias, calm down. He's one of my ex's. We were together before I left for New York." I say trying to reassure him that there was nothing between me and this guy he only knew as Peter.

"Cat, I swear to god, if he even gets close to you, I will beat his ass to a pulp." He says. I laugh because it's so sexy.

"Your so hot when you get mad." I say as I wiggle his nose then sit criss-cross facing him.

"Did you just call me hot?" He asks me. I blush a little because just now realizing that I did.

"I did?" I say as my voice gets soft.

He grabs my face, gently though, and he pulls me in for a kiss. He lightly kisses my lips, letting me feel his soft lips touch mine, only to leave about 10 seconds later.

"Hey, wait." I say. I grab his back and I hug him.

"What sexy?" He asks me.

"Okay, first off, I am not sexy, and second, what time do we have to go back to New York?"

"We leave at..." he looks at the time thingy we have and then the tickets. "At 4 o'clock."

"Really?"

"4 in the morning."

"Oh, that four."

"Yeah. So tell me Cat, why did you let me call you that when no one else can?"

"That's a piece of me I wanted you to have."
