Shai PoV

I don't know what Zoë did, but she enters my trailer with a huge smirk spread on her face.

"Why are you so happy?" I ask he a little too grumpy, looking up from the magazine I'm reading.

"Oh, I just exchanged a few words with your stupid boyfriend," she says and sits down next to me in the small red couch.

I sigh and throw the magazine away, "Zoë, what did you say to him?"

"Looks like he realizes that he was the one being stupid this time,"

Suddenly, I feel very much alert, "What do you mean about that?"

Zoë shakes a pillow and places it behind her back, "I mean, that I told him how stupid he was, thinking that you would ever do that, and even with your old high school friend. After half an hour explaining to him why you would never do anything like that, he gave in and said it's all his fault."

I stare at her, wide eyed, and furrow my eyebrows.

"That's right," she says with a smirk. "He told me that he would call you later."

In the exact same second, my phone rings and Theo's face shows up on the screen.

With a grin, Zoë waves to me before she walks out of my trailer.

I sigh and I pick up my phone, even before I get a chance to say anything, Theo interrupts me.

"Shai, baby, I'm so sorry," his voice sounds like he really do mean what he's saying. "I was so stupid even thinking, you would ever cheat on me. I don't know what... I mean, how could I even get the thought that you would ever cheat on me with your old high school friend? I'm so stupid. I..."

"Theo," I say, he sounded like he could go on forever. "Theo, it's okay."

"Ar-are you sure?," Theo asks hesitantly. "I understand if you will never forgive me. I was so stupid."

God, why does the man make everything sound like it's his fault? "Theo, it's not your fault. You didn't do anything, it was me the whole time."

I stare at the pictures hanging on the wall besides the window, it's pictures from the set of Divergent and Insurgent, almost every single one of them Theo and I are on.

One picture, my favorite, Theo, Miles and Ansel are standing with me in their arms, holding me tight and looking at the camera man with a gaze telling, 'if you touch her, you're dead' I stand in the middle with an innocent smile on my face.

It feels like ages ago when we took the picture, even though it's only a little more than a year since.

It feels so weird that we only have one more movie to shoot, well actually two but the director decided to film them both at a time.

"No, no, no, Shai," Theo says, I can hear him shake his head violently. "Please, it's not like it's your fault that the paparazzi showed up at the wrong time."

I smile a little over his cuteness, "so you're saying that it's your fault? Theo, it's not our fault. It's just the paparazzi being stupid, okay?"

"Well... Perhaps you're right. But, sweetheart, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have went so mad at you, I should just have called you instead and we could've talked about it. I was just being ridiculous."

"Are we good again?" I ask him silent.I can't bear the thought about us being in an argument any longer.

"I think I should be the one asking that question," he says. "Are we good?"

I smile and look at my lap, "we're good."

Theo sighs in relief, "thank god"

Neither one of us say anything for a while, I think we're thinking the same; how terrible it has been to be in an argument, and how lucky we are that it wasn't anything more serious.

I'm wondering what I'm going to do now, with the pictures with Nahko I mean, I think I'll just ignore it. But how can I really do that? The fans will probably never let go the fact that I might be dating Nahko Bear, unless I tell them that I'm not, of course.

"I miss you, Shai," Theo says quiet, "a lot"

I sigh a little and play with my necklace between two fingers, "I miss you, too, Theo"

"When are you done with the reshoots?"

"Two days," I tell him. We still have a few scenes to reshoot. Theo's unfortunately not needed in any of them.

"I'll come visit you as soon as you're done," he tells me.

"I'm already excited," I say with a smile. There's a knock on my window and I look up to see Miles standing out there, waving for me to come out. "Baby, I need to go. I got work to do. See you soon."

"See you soon. And Shai?"

"huh?" I stand up from the couch and give Miles a sign that I'll be right there.

"I love you," Theo's husky voice says.

Warmth spread in my chest and I smile, "I love you, too"

We hang up and I stare at my phone for a few seconds, before I lay it on the small table under the window, and walk out of my trailer to Miles who's waiting for me.

"There you are," he says as I step out. "C'mon, we got work to do, Woodley."
