Sixteen
"Elle" Tina groaned from the sofa. Her eyes narrowed at me.
I looked up from my phone. I was about to leave and grab Theo from his room, but I needed to make sure everything was all good with the others. I made sure to give every student my mobile number and give them a talk.
I wanted them to go around and explore. They were all going to New York for the rest of the day whilst me and Theo would meet up with them later on for dinner at a nice restaurant.
"is coach still stressing, c' mon girl we're not children you don't have to worry about us" Scott came in casually and wrapped an arm around my shoulder.
I glared at him "sometimes you act like children, can't blame me for being worried can you" this statement was for everyone. They must know that if anything goes wrong it's on my case.
Try going back to London with a missing student, ill be in my office packing before you could even blink an eye.
"seriously Elle, just go and spend some time with my brother I will let you know if anything happens" Jenny now joins the group shoving a baseball cap on.
She winked at me. I still feel slightly weird that I'm somewhat seeing her brother, it's not like she minds at all but to me it's still weird.
I watched them all run out the doors and into two taxis to take them to the subway.
Once they were all gone, I ran up the stairs heading towards Theo's room. I silently knocked on his door waiting for it to open but when he didn't answer I started to get worried.
After a few more minutes waiting, I carefully opened the door calling out for him. When I stepped inside and had a quick look around, I breathed out in relief.
Theo was sleeping on the bed, his hair wet from a shower and simply a pair of sweatpants. God if this isn't an invasion of privacy, I don't know what is.
I turned around to leave the room. As much as I want to spend the day out with, I had to appreciate how tired he may be.
"where do you think you're going?" his voice paused my steps completely.
I watched his head lift up to peek at me. I probably looked so sketchy right now.
"I thought you were sleeping; I was coming to tell you about plans I made for us but if you're tired, I can wait" I proceeded to exit the room only this time it wasn't his voice that stopped me.
I looked down and saw that he had grabbed my arm. Somehow the once tired, knocked out Theo had practically leapt over the bed stopping me.
"we have plans?" I hummed. A smile made its way onto his face "You didn't have to make time for me Elle, I'm a grown man"
I stopped him "I know that, "I said looking down at his body "but this is what I want. Everyone's gone ahead, we can meet them later and play games this evening" I didn't have to spend all the time with the students, but I would make sure I did.
"Okay let me get ready, I'll be 10 minutes tops," he says, ripping off the sheets and rushing towards his suitcase.
I smiled on my way out.
I waited patiently for him downstairs. I sent a message into the group's chat.
Is everything good? - Elle
Seriously coach? - Bryony
Told you, Melissa, she barely lasted 30 minutes - Thomas
Betting on coach is such a good investment for me I swear - Scott
