I kissed him again as he held me in place.
"All of that aside. I'm still not here."
"So?"
"So I don't want you to ever cheat on me."
My mouth dropped open as I blinked, his eyes locked on mine as I shook my head.
"Do you think I'd even be with you if there were anyone that compared to you? I am not interested in anyone else, baby. I know it's hard. It's long-distance, and it's shit."
I bit my lip as I held his face in my hands.
"I am not remotely interested in anyone else either. I love you, baby. I find it easy saying no."
"Do I need to come to your college and crack skulls?" I teased, as he smirked.
"There's one girl called Sherry who is having trouble with accepting the word no. She's my roomie's ex. So he is helping me out with that one." Theo chuckled as my eyes narrowed.
"Sherry? What the fuck kind of name is that?"
"Down girl,” he whispered as he nibbled my lip softly.
"I will rip her throat out." I warned, as he widened his eyes.
"I don't doubt it!"
"Maybe I will come back with you," I muttered darkly, making a mental note to search for her on Facebook.
"Enough. I suggest we spend the rest of the evening right here, in this bed. Fucking. Sucking. Licking. Biting..."
"If you insist." I breathed as he pushed me down onto the bed.
"I wish someone would've told me how good it is fucking someone you love."
"Theo," I murmured as he lifted his eyes to mine. "It's delicious fucking your best friend. Especially when you're in love."
"Touché, Phillips." Theo grinned as he began kissing my navel.
I tried not to think about him leaving tomorrow, flying away from me to a girl named Sherry who wanted my spot in life.
"I love you," I whispered.

Hours later, I woke up in Theo’s arms, the sunlight streaming through the curtains. My heart raced as I realized he was leaving today, my hand gripping his with anxiety.
He stirred as he saw me, smiling immediately.
"I love waking up next to you."
"Same."
"We didn't sleep much last night."
Theo stretched, as I untangled myself from him. I left the warm bed as I checked the time on my phone.
"Shit Theo, it's eleven am!" I exclaimed as he groaned.
