The best and most beautiful things in life can neither be seen,
nor touched.
They must be felt with the heart
POV Alyssa
Since I lived alone, I had a lot of freedom. I'd come back at the time I wanted to, and I'd hang out with whoever I wanted, without people blaming me and making me feel like a bitch. After I moved out, I had cut off contact with everyone, including Sarah; although both she and Theodore tried to contact me, I left them unanswered.
I didn't want anything to do with them anymore! I just wanted to get back to being free and away from that cage where Theodore had locked me up!
That morning the insistent sound of the intercom woke me up! I opened my eyes, snorting annoyed by the noise and, after putting on my robe, I walked towards the intercom.
- Yes who is it?
- Alyssa... it's Sarah, can we talk? - asked the voice from the other end of the intercom.
- All right, Sarah. Second floor, first door to the right! - I spoke, opening the gate.
When she arrived, my heart tightened! Sarah was different.. She was dressed in a dark dress and her hair was once light, and had become a dark color. I didn't know what happened to my best friend, but knowing her, I could tell she was hurting for someone.
- Sarah, come in! - I said, moving from the door to let her in.
- Sorry to bother you! but I needed to talk to a friend.. -
I'm here Sarah, tell me everything. In addition I want to know why this new look.. Then what happened?!
After you left, things changed a bit. Draco and I don't talk, and Theodore just asks about you.. He knows he's wrong, he loves you... and so does Draco... But living with them, I realized that both are proud and that they rarely say what they think! Exactly like you! Alyssa give them a chance, I ask you as a friend! - Sarah said, looking me in the eye. I knew she was right, but my pride forced me to be cold.
What do you want me to do? -
Talk to Theo... he's broken and worried about you.. He wants me to come back to him! Please! Do it for Him! -
Those words had managed to excite me in some way, and I decided that I wanted to solve the situation with Theo, first with Draco.
I apologized to Sarah and went to my room, where I dressed. For the occasion I chose a light blue dress and some silver sandals and, after wearing a little makeup, I reached Sarah.
We left the house, heading to the house of Draco and Thedore which we reached in about ten minutes. When they arrived, I saw Sarah searching her purse for the keys and, once she found them, she opened the front door. Upon entering we found the house in a pitiful state and, after leaving our bags and jackets, we moved into the living room. The scene in front of me filled my heart with tenderness; Theodore was sleeping on the sofa and, in his hands, he was holding my shirt.
I went to Theodore's room, and after I got a blanket, tried not to make any noise, I covered it.
You want a tea Aly! - asked my friend, once we were away, but not before giving a kiss to Theo.
Sarah, I really need something relaxing! - I said sitting at the table.
Well! Maybe later you can help me make a cake! -
Sarah, tell me the truth.. How many nights has Theo been asleep? - I asked her, pointing to the sofa.
Theodore hasn't slept since the night you left! He seemed like a troubled soul Alyssa... He was trying to solve the case, but the thoughts about you got the better of him! Then he'd stop working and start walking around the house like a ghost
We were too busy talking that we did not notice the door opening. Draco Malfoy entered the room and, when he saw me, he was amazed.
Welcome back Draco...- Sarah greeted him.
Hi Sarah.- The blond greeted her:- What are you doing here? - she asked turning to me.
Draco... I called her! We both see that Theo needs her! - Sarah spoke, looking angrily at the blond.
Listen, Draco, I'm sorry I said those things to you... I'm sorry that you and Sarah had an argument because of me! And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry I hid that envelope from you! I only did it to keep others from being targeted by this psychopath.-
Quiet Alyssa is all right! Indeed you apologize for invading your space and forgive me for making you quarrel with Theo! - Draco said to me, hugging me.
Don't worry, Draco. I missed you too! - I smiled and walked towards the living room and, once there, touched Theo's hair.
I liked to breathe the scent of Theodore! It was a scent similar to something like orange or lemon, and it was able to relax me. I closed my eyes, smelling that familiar fragrance, wondering how I could have been stupid enough to leave it. I was gonna wait for him to meet me in my room, he and I had a lot to talk about.
