Shai's POV~

I hear Theo outside the bathroom door, trying to come in. However I locked myself in, trying to think about everything. I stand up and look into the mirror. My eyes are wet and pink from crying so much. It truly scares me.

"Shai baby, you gotta let me in." Theo whispers in a low voice.

"I- I don't want you in here Theo! I'm not okay." I sigh.

Two minutes later I hear the knob wiggle and the door swings open. Theo has a key in his hand when we walks in. I was sitting on the floor, my knees to my chest and my mind wandering off.

"What's the matter?" Theo bends down, getting eye level with me.

"It's scary Theo, thinking that I'm pregnant. We haven't even been together for a year, despite the fact that we aren't even married!" I wipe my eyes.

"Many couples that aren't married have had children. It's okay and I know it's early but I would never leave you." He wipes a tear with a tissue.

I sigh in frustration, he doesn't get it. I'm not ready! Birth control was suppose to stop this from happening! I love children but I'm only 23 years old! And I wanted to be married before I had a child.

"Shai, you should take a test. We could be stressing out over nothing. After the premiere, on the weekend we can go out and buy some." Theo helps me up.

I giggle and say, "That's not the brightest. We'd be all over the news and magazines if they saw us buying the test."

"Yeah you're right, that's not the brightest idea I've came up with." He chuckles.

After calming down and watching a movie, I felt much better. I need to relax and learn to live life without any worries. It's fun not knowing what's in store for me, but it can get scary.

The only thing that's making me nervous now is the Insurgent premiere. Am I going to be the best I can be or will I trip out of the limo? I'm not sure what to expect these days.

Theo's POV~

I know tonight is going to be difficult for Shai to sleep. One, the Premiere makes her nerves crazy as if they are firecrackers blowing up on the Fourth of July. I'll try my best to make her comfortable as possible.

And second, a baby. I'm okay with the idea of having a child, yet I am 30 years old. Shai is young and I'm not sure if she's ready. She's scared and that's the last thing I want for her to feel. But I'll never leave her, I'll never let her go.

"Ready to sleep. It's 12 and we have a long day tomorrow." I help Shai up off the couch.

"Well you mean today and no I'm not. I won't be able to fall asleep." She shakes her head.

I pick her up and throw her over my back, making her startled yet she began to laugh. I started to spin around and she began to squeal.

"Theodore! Let me down!" She playfully hits my back.

I drop her down lightly and smile at her expression and crazy messed up hair. She looks like she was in a tornado.

"I'm tired now." She pretends to do a fake yawn and runs into the bedroom.

I chase after her but she ends up locking the door. I chuckle, knowing that I have a key to unlock it.

"Shai, I have a key." I knock on the door.

"And? I don't care." She begins to laugh like a crazy person.

"Better be dressed cause I'm coming in!" I joke and open the door.

I walk in seeing Shai lounged out on the bed in her underwear and bra.

"Well not exactly." She starts to laugh again.

She looks so hot in that, even when she's going to go to sleep. Usually we end up wearing nothing or she'll borrow my shirt. On lazy nights, she wears pants and a shirt. I wear shorts and no shirt.

"Well look who we have here." I take my shirt off and walk over to her.

"I'm going to be up all night." She bites her lip, holding back her sneaky smirk. She makes me go crazy.

"Let's make the best of it." I bring my lips to hers.

I began to get rid of all my worries while getting lost in Shai. She is my worst distraction and I love it. The kiss turns into a deeper, hungrier make out session. I kiss down her neck, hearing a slight sigh from Shai.

"Want to shower?" I whisper in her ear.

She sighs and nod her head. I'm feeling good in all places. I carry her bridal style and start the shower. This is the first time we are showering together and the sooner I make Shai tired, the better.

"Ready baby?" I pick her up, letting her legs wrap around my waist.

"Yes." She giggles and we get in the shower, letting the water turn into a romantic storm.

Shai's POV~

Theo and I got lost in each other but we finally reached our breaking points. My energy is gone and I'm ready to sleep. It's only 12:30 AM and I think Theo is amazing at making me tired. He's so intelligent.

"Can you sleep now?" He whispers while we climb into bed.

Our hair is still wet and I smell like fruit while Theo smells like mint. We are cuddled up together under the blankets and Theo soothes me by tracing circles on my bare shoulder.

"Yes. I love you." I close my eyes.

"And I love you." He kisses my nose and I fall into a peaceful sleep.
