Macy's POV:
2 weeks later.

"Ok guys, you go left then step right and slide, slide, slide, got it?" I show the moves to my students and they all look at my movements keenly.

"Let's do it with music shall we?" I say and play the music, everyone follows the steps I just demonstrated and at one point we all sync together.

"You all did great guys! I'll see you on Sunday" I say and the whole group disperses out of the dance studio.

Yes..

I have been teaching here and it's been really great so far. People have showed immense love for my class, and it's a total hit overall.

I look at myself in the gaint mirror, I have lost weight over the 2 weeks, but most importantly what concerned me the most was that "he hasn't called me". Not even a single text, even in the hospital he was ignoring me like plague.

I felt bad for few days, I badly wanted to talk to him. But I remembered how he treated me, how he broke the promise and had drugs, how he never apologized for what he did.

So I just let it go. And I ignored him too.

"Hey sweaty!"

I look through the mirror and roll my eyes. "Shut up Matt"

"God! Your sweat stinks, you really need a shower" he says scrunching his nose.

I laugh saying "really? You were the one who told me that you love my body odour in high school"

"I still do" his statement leaves me off gaurd. The tension in the room suddenly increases.

Matt was there with me throughout these 2 weeks, he hasn't left my side, and was always available for me. He even started cooking all my favorite dishes just to make me happy, I appreciated it, but that void I had could only be filled by him.

No! He doesn't care, so stop thinking about him.

"Macy?" Matt snaps his fingers.

"Huh? Yeah what were you saying?" I realized I haven't been listening to him at all.

"Let's go out for dinner tonight?" He asks expectantly.

"Matt- I really don't think it's a good idea" I tell him while removing my snickers.

"Why? Come on Macy, how long are you going to mourn over that bastard" Matt says gritting his teeth.

"I really love him Matt, what he did was unacceptable, but somewhere in my heart I know that he did it out of anger or something else that he is not able to tell. And I really want to know what that thing is."

He sighs and asks "fine! At least have dinner with me?"

I chuckle saying "we have dinner together every day you idiot!"

"No, let's go out this time" he says smirking.

"Fine fine! What do I wear?" I ask him while we make our way towards the door.

"A dress" he winks at me.

I grin and lock the door, I turn around and dash into Matt's back, "what the hell?"

I rub my forehead and look up to find a pair of gorgeous blue eyes staring straight at me.

"Theo?" I whisper.

"Why the hell are you here?" Matt yells at Theo. And to my suprise Theo completely ignores Matt.

"We need to talk" he says still looking at me. I try to see through his emotions but he perfectly covered them up with a blank expression.

I sigh saying "What now? I thought you considered me as an AIDS patient, in the past 2 weeks?"

"I needed time." He replies simply.

What the hell is wrong with him? Wait. Is this how the breakup conversation is going to be?

Shit! I can already feel my heart breaking into a million pieces.

"Fine, where do you want to do this?" I ask him. This is it, I guess this is how I have to live my whole life.

Miserably.

The tension between us was so high, Matt's fists were clenched, Theo was all clam and calculated, me on the other hand was trying not to cry my ass off, now.

"Come with me" He says breaking the silence. I nod my head absent-mindedly.

"No!" Matt yells out of no where. Theo doesn't react at all. And this surprises Matt as well.

What the hell is wrong with him?

"Matt, I'll be ok" I say keeping a hand on his shoulder, he relaxes at my touch and in my periphery I notice Theo not looking at us anymore.

He is acting so weird? Is he even alright? I think to myself.

Matt engulfs me in a hug, squeezing the life out of me. "Call me if you feel you are in danger, please?" He whispers in my ear. I nod my head in response.

"Let's go" I say and follow Theo to his car.

To my suprise he opens the door for me, I thank him and get in.

"Where are we going?" I ask buckling up.

"Somewhere peaceful" He replies, still expression less.

"Okay, but can we stop somewhere? I'm kinda sweaty. Atleast could wash my face" I ask him expectantly.

He sighs deeply and turns the car towards the college.

Well? Ok then.

I quickly make my way towards my room. Everything was at its place as if no one came in at all, except

The bed.

It was unmade. I clearly remember making my bed before I went to Matt's house. Did someone come to live here? I check my stuff and see that everything is in its place.

Weird..

I ignore it for now, and mentally make a note to ask Theo about it later. I take a shower and change into cleaner clothes. Not bothering to cover my tired face with makeup I make my way out of my room.

I find Theo dozed off in his world whilst sitting in the living room. "Hey? I'm ready" I say. He snaps out and looks at me, "yeah ok. Let's go"

With that he stands up, I follow him and we make our way to his car.

Silence.

Utterly silent.

I think a deaf man would go insane with how silent we were. Seeing the familiar road to the beach, a smile takes over my face when I remember how he took me their for the first time.

It was just few months ago, but it feels like long time has passed by.

He parks the car in the same place and I get out of the car without waiting for him. He sighs and motions me to sit down on the sand.

"So.. what do you want to know about?"

He asks me after a moment. I look at him saying "everything that you haven't told me, yet"
I add.

He looks away from me, a pained expression on his face, "you don't want to know that Macy"

"Then why did you even bring me here?" I ask angrily. "Oh! So you came just to talk with me? After we talk, then what?" He snaps.

My eyes narrow at him "Let's do the first part then let's think about the second. Ok?"

"Yeah, Right? You seriously think I'm that blind?" He scoffs. What the hell is wrong with him? Why is he acting like this?

"Stop beating around the bush, just come to the damn point Theo"

"You think I don't know what's going on between you and Matt? I'm not blind Macy" he spits venomously.

I look at him with disbelief. Seriously? He is seriously high on drugs I guess, can't he see the condition I am in? Can't he see what I'm going through? Can't he see that I'm suffering too?

"Forget it Theo. Your jealousy is what always overpowers your love. I think I'm one of your conquests, that you are so adamant on holding on to." I yell and stand up.

"Where are you going? Come back here" he says and pulls my hand making me land directly onto his lap.

"Fuck you" I say hitting his chest, but he catches my fists stopping me.

"Enough"

I look at him with teary eyes. He sighs and turns me towards the sea, my back pressed against his chest. I fit into his lap like a missing puzzle peice. I lean my head back taking a deep breath, his Woody cologne fills my senses, calming them.

He interlocks are hands together and brings them to my lap.

"What happened?" I whisper.

"Drugs happened" He says chuckling darkly.

"I used to get wasted in those high school parties, when I found out that my mom had cancer."

I squeeze his hand reassuringly.

"One of the mafia members noticed me, offered me drugs, me being stupid, I accepted them. Years pasted by and I became their regular customer"

"They told me that if I sold drugs anonymously, they would pay me, it's a pretty huge amount. I agreed immediately and became one of the best drug dealer for them."

"Long story short, I met you in this process decided to quit but they wouldn't let me, they said it was either continuing or death"

My breath hitches listening to the options he just said.

"I convinced them somehow, and now I'm free from that shit" he concludes.

"Like done for good?" I ask looking up at him. He nods a small smile on his face "yes, done for good"

Relief washes over me, not knowing what to say next, I turn towards the sea.

The tension slowly raises in the air, I knew what question he wants to ask me next, neither of us made the move.

Finally after few minutes he asks "you still love me right?"

I look up into those deep blue eyes, "what do you think?" I ask him.

"I wish I knew what's going on in your mind just like I know about your body" he whispers. My heart beat increases when he leans towards my ear and whispers, "your body craves my touch, my smell, my warmth, I feel your heart rate increasing when I'm near, it loves when we are close, just like I do"

"Theo" I whisper softly, my harmones going on an overdrive, "butterfly, when you become mine. I'll satisfy your needs so well that you won't even think about other men"

"I love you" I breath out.

"Fuck! That's what I want" he says turning me around, making me straddle his lap. He immediately captures my lips into a passionate kiss.

My hands immediately finding their way into his hair, tangling into the soft locks, pulling them for more. Eagerly he responded by pushing his tongue into my mouth and I gladly accepted it.

Both of us were running out of breath but neither of us wanted to detach from each other.

Not even a second, he was my oxygen, just like I was his.

I let out a moan, when I felt him squeeze my waist. I arched forward just so our pelvis could touch, he groaned at the contact, I could feel his rock hard erection right near my entrance, just the clothing was separating us from becoming one.

He pulls away and we both gasp for air.

"Fuck, that was so sexy butterfly" He murmurs near my lips.

I look away blushing a little, he chuckles at my reaction and kisses my cheek tenderly.

"Move in with me" He says suddenly out of now where.

I look at him stunned at how randomly he bought this question up. "I'm serious, move in with me." He repeats.

"Why?" I ask him still breathless because of the kiss.

"Because I want to restart, everything. In a new place, new memories, new adventures. With you"

My heart flutters at what he just said, even though I would forgive him, part of me knew that what happened that night would always haunt me. Maybe a new place would help us? I really hope this isn't a bad decision.

"My dad might kill you" I whisper looking straight into his eyes.

His eyes furrow in confusion, "yes, I'll move in with you" I tell him biting my lip.

A huge grin takes over his face and he instantly lifts me up, I let out a squeal and lock my hands around his neck, my legs wrapping around his waist.

"Theo! Let go off me!" I squeal when he starts running towards his car.

"Never!" He yells laughing along with me.

.............

"Can I please remove the blindfold now?" I whine like a 10 year old kid. I hear a throaty chuckle, "just a few more minutes butterfly." I let out a loud groan and slump in the car seat.

After Theo carried me into his car as if I'm a toddler, he blind folded me with one of his ties which was lying in his car.

How random?!

He has been driving since then and stopped twice, and made me promise to not peek or remove the blind fold till he tells me to.

Me being me, agreed to this shit, now I completely regret it! I badly wanted to cheat, but he was being so happy and excited about this, I didn't have the heart to do so.

"So keep your ass calm and wait" my subconscious retords back at me. I roll my eyes at it and wait.

"Okay. We have arrived at your destination" I hear him say while he stops the car.

I snort saying "what? Are you Google now?"

"Hm.. maybe, I do have a lot of knowledge about some stuff" I hear him whisper seductively in my ear. I gulp audibly, my thighs clenching automatically, I'm sure he must be smirking at my reaction now.

"Let's go butterfly" he says while opening my door, and guiding me through the stairs. I hear an elevator arriving and we make our way into it.

"When will you remove this, I might actually lose my eyesight if I come directly in contact with bright light" I try to convince him somehow. He just chuckles at me.

God!! He is so irritating!!

"Just a few more steps, come on" he says while pulling me along with him.

I follow him eagerly, and just as he said we did come to halt after a few steps, he gently removed my blind fold whispering in my ear "suprise"

My eyes flutter open, and I see a large wooden door in front of me. "Whose house did you bring me too?" I whisper yell at Theo.

He stifles a laugh "why are you whispering?"

"Are you drunk or something? Have you seen the time?" I say tip toeing my way back to the elevator. Theo holds my hand stopping me, he points to the wall beside the door.

I look at it and my heart stopped.

Like

Literally

Stops.

Not my heart, maybe my world stopped too.

Because on that wall was a large wodden board with large bold letters engraved on them.

Wait!!

The font size did not shock me. What shook me was, the writing on the board.

Mr and MRs Salvatore.

Can someone please wake me up from this dream?
