Waiting On You [18+]

"How's your mum and sister?" Theo asked Naomi as he watched her write something down on her notepad as he knew without a doubt he was currently a tiny screen on her MacBook whilst the rest of the page was filled with magazine articles and photoshoot pictures.

"Oh they're um- good" Naomi mumbled, trying to remember what Theo asked as she was too distracted by what she was writing

"Baby, take a break - it's Easter, you've been working hard all year" she heard Theo's voice echo in her AirPods as she realised he was right

Shutting her notepad and closing down all her other tabs, Naomi made Theo's FaceTime call full screen and finally looked at him properly for the first time in...three hours!

He'd been sat there watching me for three hours and I didn't even notice.

"Three hours you've just been watching me, I'm so sorr-" she began to apologise as Theo shook his head smiling at her

"Naomi, remember I was the one who called you - you told me you had work and I ignored you, saying that I was more than happy to just watch you get on with it whilst I went about my day, as it meant that I still had a moment with you, even if all your attention wasn't on me"

"So let's try this again, how are your mum and sister?" He asked

"They're good - I wouldn't be surprised if my mum hears me talking too loudly that she'll come bursting into my room any moment just to meet you" Naomi admitted as she remembered the moment she told her mum she had a boyfriend she was shocked to say the least since Naomi said no relationships during uni, but she could tell that Theo was making her daughter happier so she was happy and wanted to meet him

"Oh so I'm finally going to meet the woman who gave birth to my beautiful girlfriend and I'll get to see what I'm working with when we get older"

"We literally all look the same Theo, me, my mum and my sister - well besides me and my sister have different noses as she got hers from her dad and I got mine from my dad" she laughed at Theo's face when he remembered her and her sister were only half siblings because her sister's father past away, "But enough about me - how are you? Have you spoken to your mum and sister? How's London with the boys and Elijah's family?" She asked, wanting to make sure that Theo was okay. That he felt like he could talk to her

"My mum and sister are good - we've gotten closer since I went back home because of everything, but other than that there's not much to update on, my dad is still the same dickhead he's always been...As for London it's good, happy to be here, Elijah's family are very welcoming" He told Naomi as he watched her move her notes off of her bed so she could pay full attention to him

"Oh, Tiana's here visiting, so I'm sat in the garden right now - hence the odd background" he gestured to the grass behind him, "cause if I see her and Elijah together too much, I'll just be a moody prick, until the moment I get to see you again and no one wants that"

Naomi couldn't help the laugh that fell from her lips as she said, "You've been a moody prick from the moment I met you"

"I was not a moody prick" he argued, refusing to have that title on him

"Yes you were Theo, you literally started an argument with me when we first met because we drew in our drinking competition" she pointed out, removing the fond memory of one of the first times they ever spoke because he refused to lose to her
