I see your face even when my eyes are shut

-Nick Jonas

"Call me, if you need anything." Mason kissed the top of Mia's head. "And take care."

She hugged him tightly, then stepped back and leaned into me. I wrapped an arm around her, nodding at Mason, conveying with my eyes that she was safe with me. I would never let anything happen to her.

Mia was coming with me to the penthouse. We both felt that we needed each other at the moment, because of the Noah drama, and also because we hadn't been together for two days. I needed her in my arms. I needed her close to me.

The drive to the penthouse was silent. She was looking out of the window, but reached out to grab my hand from the steering wheel and intertwine our fingers. My grip tightened as I held her hand.

"He-he said-"

"Not now, Mia."

"He said he'd kill you." She whispered softly. I could hear the tightness of her voice, the way it choked because of the tears.

I didn't say anything. I didn't know what to.

"What if-what if something happens? Theo, maybe we should-"

"Do not complete that sentence, Mia." I said forcefully. "Don't you dare."

"What if he does something to you? He could hurt you, Theo how would I live with that? If he hurts you, I-"

"Nothing will happen, okay? He was just trying to scare you."

"Yeah well he was successful. I am scared." She said. "He looked mad. He looked as if he was possessed and-"

"I don't want to talk about him anymore. Enough about him." I said, clenching the wheel tightly. She didn't say anything but I could feel her thinking. I could feel her wanting to cry. She was hurting inside, and she was trying her best to not show, but I saw.

I parked the car, looking at her. She didn't look at me. I got out of the car, waiting for her to come. She didn't leave the car. I opened the door to the passenger side, holding her hand, trying to help her out. But when she didn't leave, I placed one of my hands around her legs and the other one behind her back, slinging her into my arms bridal style.

"Theo! What the-what are you doing?" She squeaked out. Her hands came around my neck automatically.

"I'm carrying you since you were not in the mood to leave the car."

She rested her head against my chest, above my heart. We entered the elevator, and her hands tightened around my neck as she lifted up and pinned her lips on mine. "I love you."

"I love you, angel."

"I can't let anything happen to you. I wouldn't be able to live if he does something to you. You will-"

"Nothing is gonna happen." I whispered. "I'm fine. I'll be fine."

Tobias wasn't back from wherever he'd gone. Mia pushed me inside my room, and closed the door behind her, pulling me down against her mouth. Her mouth felt soft and rough at the same time. She tasted like chocolate and her normal self, like my angel.

Her hands lifted my t-shirt up, but when neither of us made a move to tear our lips apart, she left my shirt and coiled her arms around my neck, pressing herself closer to me. I grabbed her hips, hoisting her up, making her wrap her legs around me. I carried us over to bed, laying down with her on top of me.

With great difficult she managed to leave my lips, sitting up and lifting her t-shirt up. I raised myself up to latch my mouth around her bra clad breast, my hands warm on her skin, pressing her chest further in my mouth. She threw her head back when I unclasped her bra and lowered her down on the bed, this time flipping us over.

She lifted my t-shirt up my chest again. I moved away from her lips enough to take it off, then dived back on top of her again. Her breasts pressed against my chest as she coiled her legs around my waist and pulled me down closer. She tried lowering my pants down with the help of her feet, groaning when I sucked on her neck.

I flung over her pants as she managed to lower mine down till my knees. She arched into me. "Please, Theo. I need you."

"What do you need, angel?" I grasped my breasts together in my hand, biting down on the soft flesh of her neck.

"I need you inside me." She moaned when I sunk my teeth deeper.

I got up abruptly, shredding my pants away. I tucked the ends of her panties down, opening the drawer at the nightstand table, tearing off the packet with my teeth and rolling the condom onto my cock. "We need to get you on birth control, angel. I got a feel of you without it, and now I hate this shit."

She perched up on her elbows, and glanced with me with her desire flooded eyes. Her beautifully innocent dirty eyes.

"I want to be able to cum inside you." I added softly. "I want to feel you, everything, everyday, every time."

I placed myself against her opening. And before I could push myself in, she looped her legs around me and pulled me closer, pushing me in deep inside her.

"Fuck! Baby, oh fuck." I groaned. "Open your eyes."

She kept them closed, so I plunged out of her. She whimpered and opened her lust filled eyes to look at me. "Good, now keep them open."

I eased myself inside her again. I could see her struggle to keep her eyes open at the pleasure, but when her eyes met mine, they froze on me. "Tell me how it feels."

"So good, Theo." She moaned. "Fuck."

She lifted her body up and I leaned down to kiss her lips, but she dived into my neck. Her hands came to rest on my shoulders as I moved in and out of her, hard and deep, fast and slow. She moaned softly in my neck, her tongue teasing me.

"Angel, oh fuck." I pulled myself out to slam inside her again, but before I could do that she flipped me over.

"What the-"

She pressed her lips on mine to cut me off, her knees digging in the bed at my sides. Her fingers lightly traced my chest, making me shiver. She sat up.

"You wanna be on top?" I asked in astonishment. She nodded and lined her opening against me. "Fuck, you don't know how fucking hot that is." My arms came up to grab her hips.

She gave me a lopsided smirk and slowly eased down, throwing her head back, her hands holding my arms to balance herself.

"Fuck, angel, I can't-" I groaned. She felt so good. So fucking good that I wanted to grab her ass tightly and slam myself up. But I couldn't do that. I had to control. "I can't, just...go slowly."

She gained momentum, and speed. I groaned every time she rolled down on me, clenching her walls on purpose. She was too tight, and she was making me see stars. I was too high on her, of the feel of being inside her. She was fucking so good at what she was doing, and she knew it. I knew she knew it.

"Tell me how it feels." She repeated my words to me.

"So fucking good, Mia. You feel so warm. Fuck, your walls are clenching against me." I grabbed her hips and guided her motion.

She threw her head back again and moaned sexily. I was dangerously close to losing my control and slamming my entire length deep inside her.

"Put your hair back, angel. I want to see your tits bounce as you ride me."

Her eyes darkened more at my words. My eyes didn't leave the way her breasts bounced with each thrust. I grasped one in my hand, fondling with it, flicking her nipple with my fingers.

"God, oh fuck, Theo!" She groaned.

That was when the control shattered. I held her waist tightly, preventing her moving. She whined and looked confused.

"The-oh fuck!" She screamed when I slammed up inside her. "Fuck, fuck! Shit, oh god, fuck. Don't stop. Don't stop, fuck!"

I increased my pace, wanting to feel her deeper, wanting to fill her up harder. Her nails dug in my chest, her moans filled my room. The smell of sex was lingering in the atmosphere. She arched her neck and I saw the purplish bruises on it, teeth marks. My marks.

She went slack against me and came. I filled her up seconds later. Her body dropped on mine as she heaved a deep breath, I pulled her up so that her head was in my neck. I tucked her blonde curls behind her ear, kissing her hair, rubbing her arms softly with my fingers. She hummed in delight.

"I love you." I whispered to her.

"I love you, baby." She whispered back.

I didn't want anything else. I didn't need anything else.

For a change, I got up early in the morning. I pressed a kiss to my gorgeous boyfriend's forehead as he slept on his stomach, pushing back his hair when it came on his closed eyes. I skipped over to the kitchen, filling myself a glass of water.

When Theo came, running a hand through his messy hair, looking sleepy and sexy, I'd already placed a plate of chocolate pancakes in front of him. He kissed my forehead, then my lips, and sat down.

"They are nothing compared to yours." I pointed to his plate. "But you have to manage."

"I would eat burnt food if you made it for me, angel." He murmured.

My heart warmed. He always said the right things. "Well, you don't have to worry about that then. I'm not that bad of a cook." I grinned.

"I'll drop you to uni. I've gotta go to my parents' after that." He said.

"Isn't that in the opposite direction from the uni?" I asked. "You don't have to drop me, I'll be fine."

"I want to."

"Baby," I cupped his face. "You'll run late. I'll be fine driving myself for one day."

"You sure?" He frowned.

"Yeah."

He convinced me to take a shower with him. He was good at convincing me to do things. It took us an hour to come out of the bathroom, freshly showered, along with other things. We got dressed and he gave me a long, lingering, knee dropping kiss on the lips and left for his parents' house. I drove myself to uni a few minutes later.

I was making my way over to the class, passing by the grounds. I felt my heart clench at the thought of football. I had to go to the board. I had to tell them the truth and convince them that Theo hadn't anything wrong. They needed to understand they were protecting the wrong guy. At the thought of Noah, my blood went cold again. I remembered how his eyes had looked yesterday perfectly. He had that mad look which told me he wasn't giving up. And that was scaring me.

Instinctively, when I rounded the corner, my head turned to gaze over the fields. And I stopped short, scrunching up.

Not a single person was in view. The fields were empty, deserted.

I remembered Theo telling me they had practice everyday except for Sundays, so this was confusing. I'd expected to see people running laps, exercising. I didn't understand what this meant. I made a mental note to ask Theo about it.

My face felt itchy so I made a stop to the washroom to wash my face. I swiped a light tone of lip gloss, checking my hair. The door to the restroom opened.

"Hello, Amelia."

I whipped my head to the side, even though I recognized the voice. My face turned into the familiar scowl it turned into every time I saw her. "Claire." I replied tight lipped.

"I need to talk to you."

"What about?" I raised an eyebrow.

"About Noah." She closed the door behind her. "Your psychotic ex boyfriend."
