Love is our true destiny.

We do not find the meaning of life alone,

We find him with someone else.

POV Theodore

Something, like a familiar scent, woke me from my sleep. I stretched, looking shortly after the blanket and noticing Alyssa's shirt that in order, had been placed on the back of the sofa.

I didn't know what that perfume was or where it came from, as I knew that the person I loved wasn't there.

I looked around trying to figure out where that perfume came from, and after I got up, I went back to my room.

Alyssa, my Alyssa, was sitting on my bed, looking at me sweetly.

- Hi Theo! - he said, and then he joined me.

- Alyssa... So Sarah managed to convince you to come back! I missed you! - I said.

- Theo... I missed you too! but I was too stupid to admit it! can you ever forgive me?! -

- Don't worry! I care that you're here! - I hugged her, holding her tight, as if I was afraid of losing her.

She kissed me back. It was a kiss that knew of so many things, sadness, passion and suffering; I immediately understood that she too had suffered for our separation, caused by the danger in which, despite ourselves, we found ourselves.

I wouldn't have let this situation divide us again! But above all, I wouldn't let that psychopath touch her, I would protect her, even at the cost of my life!

- Have you seen Draco before? - I asked her, hoping that my dark friend had not made a mess.

- Yes, I met him before. Sarah and I were having tea and he came into the kitchen just then! - Alyssa replied.

- He didn't treat you badly, did he? -

- No Theo, he apologized for invading my space! -

- I think the discussion with Sarah got him thinking! Anyway, back to us.. Alyssa, I'm asking you not to hide anything from me anymore, and I'm asking you to let me know whatever happens! I would also like you to live here again, but for the moment it's okay! -

- I accept the terms Theo! Whatever happens to me you will know and I promise you, from now on, I won't hide anything from you! As for living here, I'll be back. But not now! Theo, I ask you to trust me! -

- I trust you! And the situation you're in scares me! Every time the phone rings I am afraid that they can tell me that... - I tried to finish the sentence, but the kiss had come with such a speed that I had not caught unprepared.

- Sh... I'm here! -

- Does Alyssa want to stay for dinner? I'll drive you home later

- If I'm not intruding, I'd appreciate it! -

- Good! Then I'll tell Sarah! -

- Theo...-

- What? -

- I love you! -

- Me too! -

I walked to the kitchen, where, on the news that Alyssa was stopping for dinner, Sarah and Draco cheered.

We were back to being a family, and that made me and Alyssa feel good. Alyssa joined us and while Draco and I locked ourselves in the studio, the girls did the chores.

Good morning and Happy New Year to all!

We hope this is a happy year full of projects, passions and desires that will come true.
I wanted to celebrate and start the year with two new chapters.

Happy reading. Best wishes!
