Theo PoV

Shai's naked body is pressed against mine when I wake up. I find myself in a very uncomfortable position; my left arm is laying under the weight of Shai's sleeping body, it feels dead and weird of being there for eight hours straight. My whole body's sore from the events from last night, and I really need a shower.

Careful not to wake up Shai, I try to get my arm out from under her body, when it succeeds, I roll on my back and shake my arm to get life back in it.

I wince a little as I sit up against the headboard, whatever Shai did to me, it was really good last night but not really good now.

I look around in Shai's hotel room, it's very small but it can easily fit two people. Our suitcases are standing in front of the closet, packed with all our stuff; We're going to LA to visit Shai's mother and brother.

As I think about it, I'm actually not very nervous about meeting them. I mean, Shai grew up at that place, to be who she is the people who raised her must be very much like her.

I take Shai's hand in mine and begin to draw patterns in her palm, after a few seconds, she moves a little and throws a pillow over her head.

I slide down under the covers and kiss her bare back, "baby, I'm sorry, but we need to get up or we'll miss the plane."

"Shut up, Theo!" She groans, "It's too early!"

A little surprised, I rub her back and try to get the pillow away from her face, "what happened to the always so happy morning Shailene Woodley?"

Shai sighs a little, "I'm not always happy, only most of the time. I got my lazy days."

I smile at her even though she can't see me, she's so cute. "I can see that."

Shai turns around to face me, her eyes look tired and her hair looks like a cockatoo. She lies her hands on my chest and pulls me over to climb on top of me.

I grab her waist and press her closer, planting love bites down her neck and collarbone, she runs her hands through my brunette hair, I can feel her breath on my ear.

"Theo," she whispers. "We got to go."

With a groan, I pull back just enough to look in her hazel eyes. She's still looking very tired, but more awake than before after all.

I nod and smile, "You're right."

Shai gets down from me and my gaze follows her before she closes the door into the bathroom behind her.

As I hear the water from the shower turn on, I get up from the bed and start to get dressed. I put on a black jeans, white t-shirt and grey sweater over it. I walk out of the bedroom to reach the tiny kitchen placed in the same room as the living room.

I turn on the small radio on the kitchen counter, and Walking On Sunshine booms out through the room.

I open Shai's fridge and look into it, it's almost empty since Miles and Zoë came over after set yesterday evening. When they leave, there's nothing back in your kitchen; they will eat it all. Not that I think Shai minds at all, she's leaving this room today anyways.

I take out the rest of the food left over in the fridge, it consists of fruits, vegetables and an old sandwich.

The sandwich, I throw in the trash can. I eat a banana, an apple and a orange, before Shai steps out from the bedroom, fully dressed in a large midnight blue hoodie and grey sweatpants.

She dances to me, takes the rest of my orange out of my hand, and eats it.

I shake my head and laugh at her as she dances around in the living room. Once she takes my hands to get me to dance with her, I grab her waist instead and lean into her, planting a kiss on her lips.

We both smile against each other's lips, as the song ends and another one starts: Beating Heart by Ellie Goulding, the title song from Divergent.

This song sends memories coursing through my body, memories of all the amazing days on set, the Divergent family which I'm really missing, all the amazing friends I got, and of course the premiers, interviews, press conferences and other events.

And I can say I'm only looking forward to film two more movies for this franchise.
