Theo grinned at her response, "I'm glad I did that," he said, throwing the cigarette on the ground and wrapping his other arm around her waist. He couldn't let her go, and he was so glad that she felt the same. He just held her for a while, his chin resting on the top of her head. He could hear people chanting and cheering at them both, but he just kept ignoring them. He felt so much calmer already and had forgotten about what had happened just moments earlier in the bathroom.
Theo lifted his head off her chin, moved his arm up her body and toward her face. He grabbed her chin with one hand, "Do you mind if I do that again?" He asked, not even asking for her response before kissing her again, with more passion than her ever did before. He ran his hand up and down her back, tilting her head back and pushing her into the wall. Theo kept his other hand grasping her chin as he kissed her deeply. He was very confident, but that was probably the alcohol talking and the fact that she had given him so much confidence.
Eventually, Theo pulled away again and grinned happily. This was the happiest he had been in a very long time, and he felt so relieved that he had persistently pursued her for so long and not given up. "You're good," he whispered, before giving her neck a few kisses. He pushed away from the wall and winked at her flirtatiously. He didn't want to go back to the pub at this rate and just wanted to stay out here with Wren.

Wren hadn't even thought about the fact that they could be seen, but she didn't quite care either. It felt nice to be held in his arms and wrapped in his warmth. The world around them had nearly melted away, too, her entire thoughts reduced to nothing except for him. Even though she had told herself it wouldn't happen, Theo already had her utterly whipped. He was truly a charmer, and she knew it would be much to hard to resist him any longer. As he grabbed her chin, she looked up at him, intending to tell him yes, but he had already captured her in another devastating kiss. She groaned softly, her hands threading through his hair to pull him closer, if it was even possible. Easily she lost herself in him, kissing him just as deeply and passionately as he had her against the wall trapping her right where she wanted to be. She probably wouldn't be able to face him tomorrow without blushing like a fool, but that would be a problem for the Wren of the future. As they parted again, Wren was grinning like a fool, all too happy with the evenings turnout. Her eyes fluttered as he kissed her neck, her cheeks flaring red at his compliment. If she was good, the he was down right amazing. She nearly whined when he pushed away, but she contained the noise, instead giggling softly at his wink. She didn't want to go back in either, craving more one on one time with Theo. "Would you want to go back to the dorms together? Just to hang out a while longer.." she questioned carefully, not wanting to give him the wrong idea.

Theo was happy that she was accepting their embrace and it was clear now that she was definitely into him. He watched her as she asked him to go back to the dorm. As much as he wanted to, he wanted to keep a little bit of the mystery alive. He grinned and shook his head, "I think we should save that for our date on Friday, don't you?" He questioned, smirking at her. They didn't need to spend all their time together all at once. After all, they had all of Friday evening to spend with each other and get to know each other more.
Theo glanced around outside before checking his phone for the time. 11pm. He still had classes tomorrow and he felt pretty drunk. He put his phone back into his pocket, before turning his attention back to Wren. "Don't worry baby, you can have me all to yourself on Friday," he said cheekily, reaching down to her face and tucking her hair behind her ears. "I'll make it worth the wait," he whispered, kissing her ear briefly before standing up tall again.
He smiled at her, stepping back a little and sighing deeply. "I better head back, it's late," he spoke, looking around and seeing that most of the people had moved off to head towards the clubs, as the pub was shutting soon.

Even though she wasn't ready for the night to end, she didn't allow herself to be disappointed. They both needed rest, after all, and it was getting pretty late. "I suppose you're right," she hummed softly, figuring they'd still need new stuff to talk about when their date came. Plus, if she happened to get sick from drinking so much, she really didn't want Theo there to see it. Wren gave him a playful glare, though she couldn't hide the little smile that curved her lips as he promised that she could have him to herself come Friday. She was already looking forward to their little date, and now it was more so. Her cheeks heated up again at his next words, and she reached out to swat him gently. "Naughty~" she tsked, shaking her head with a smile. She had no doubt he'd make good on that statement if she allowed him to. God, she was likely doomed. Nodding, Wren sighed softly. "As should I. I'm getting pretty sleepy and classes are early," she agreed, already stifling a yawn with her hand. Smirking slightly, she stood up a bit straighter as she looked at him. "Be a gentleman and walk me to my room since we're going in the same direction?" She requested, not actually expecting him to take her all the way, but if they were both going back to campus, the least they could do was walk together.

He chuckled softly, "I'm always naughty darling," he said charmingly, knowing how to play on her heart strings. It always worked with girls, but with Wren, he was doing it for her attention, rather than just doing it because it worked. Theo grinned, biting his lip at her smile. It was contagious and he couldn't help but smile when she did. He nodded understandably, "Of course," he spoke, turning around and beginning to walk in the direction of campus. Luckily, the fresh air had sobered him up a bit, so he wasn't swaying around or slurring his words as much as he was before. Plus, the kiss they shared was definitely something to wake him up and shake him out of his drunkenness. As they started walking back, he turned his head and looked at her. "Thank you for tonight, again I'm sorry for my behaviour, or if I came on too strong to you," he said honestly, really glad that she decided to come to the pub, even if she didn't have any intention of seeing him. Theo was just glad for the opportunity to see her properly. As they continued walking, campus was fairly quiet, basically nobody around as they were either in bed or out clubbing. Nothing was open and you could hear a pin drop.
Theo let her lead the way back to her dorm, as he didn't know where it was. As they approached her dorm, he slowed down and just stared at her, waiting for her to say something.

Wren gave him a cheeky look before shaking her head again. He really was something, she just genuinely hoped that he was being as serious as he seemed about her. She smiled when he agreed to walking with her, and she murmured her words of thanks as she began walking as well. Her own steps still swayed, but her words were clear enough and her mind wasn't quite a fuzzy as before. She had definitely drank way too much, though. She was destined to be hung over come morning. Looking at him as he spoke, her expression softened, those little butterflies returning. "Of course. I must admit that you were great tonight. I don't think I've ever felt quite so comfortable with someone," she admitted, not wanting him to feel as if he's done anything wrong. Truthfully, if he had done something that she didn't like, she wouldn't have hesitated to push him away and leave, but he'd been more than perfect instead. It did not take long to arrive at her dorm with as quiet as it was, and soon she was slowing to a stop and turning to look at Theo. She was silent if only for a moment before moving closer and lifting up on her tiptoes as she cupped his face. This time, Wren kissed him first, just as deeply and passionately as the previous ones they had shared, though a bit more brief. "I had a lot of fun tonight, Theo, thank you. I genuinely look forward to going out with you on Friday," she told him, a warm smile gracing her features once more.

There was silence in the air, not the awkward type, but he felt comfortable with it. Theo returned the kiss, gently placing his hands on her hips. He let go and smiled down at her, "Thank you as well. I'm sure I'll see you around tomorrow," he spoke and pulling her in for an embrace. His arms wrapping arms her lower back and his fingertips slowly caressing along her spine. He didn't want to let her go, and he just wanted to be near her all night, but he knew he needed sleep and so did Wren.
Theo slowly let go of her, "Goodnight, Wren," he whispered before pulling his hands away from her and walking down the corridor to where his dorm was. Surprisingly, they weren't that far away from each other. Which was convenient. He reached for his keys that were hidden in his pocket and he walked with a happiness in his step. As he reached his dorm room, he unlocked the door and entered. Theo had wished he wasn't so angry and that the fight didn't happen, but of course, hindsight was a wonderful thing.
As he turned on the light, Harry was sat in the living room, scoffing a cheese pizza in the dark. Theo laughed and plonked himself down next to him. "Enjoying it?" Theo asked, pinching a slice of pizza and eating it quickly. Harry frowned before his lips turned into a smile. "Is someone in love?" He slurred, giggling like a school girl. Theo just rolled his eyes and punched him in the arm. "No, but she's a very sweet girl, and of course my charm wore her down eventually," Theo spoke, a smug look in his eyes.
Harry nodded, finishing off his pizza and jumping up off the sofa, "I'm proud of you mate, you two go well together. Let's hope she doesn't come to her senses and realise you're a massive dick," Harry said, laughing as he went to the bedroom.

Wren smiled, nodding as he pulled her in for a hug. She melted against him for a few moments. She wanted to just remain there for as long as she could, but before much longer, Theo was beginning to pull away. "Goodnight, Theo," she said softly, giving him a small wave as she watched him go down the corridor for few seconds. She then turned and went into her room, more than ready to change and collapse into bed. The room was empty, as Holly was still out and about as usual, but she sent her a quick text to let her know that she was home, as well as just to check on her. She receiving one back a couple of minutes later assuring her that all was fine, though it was obvious that she was plastered, considering the amount of typos. Chuckling, Wren changed into pajamas before going into the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. It had been quite the interesting evening, she just had to hope that the feelings that had stirred up between them wouldn't change come tomorrow when they were sober. Wren climbed into bed, burrowing beneath the excess of blankets and pillows as she readied herself for sleep. She had already put her phone on charge and set painfully early alarms. Tomorrow morning was going to suck, as she was already aware of the hang over that was looming over her. Wakefulness only lingered for a few more moments before she succumbed to sleep, passing smooth out until morning would come.

Theo grabbed a glass of water from the kitchen, quickly gulping it down and spilling some of it onto his chin. He groaned and rubbed his face aggressively, before walking into his room. The sound of the owl hooting outside his window was almost enough to send him to sleep. He fought the urge and went into the bathroom, throwing off his clothes and turning on the shower. The smell of alcohol on his clothes was making him feel sick. He brushed his teeth, washing away the taste of beer and entering the steaming hot shower. Theo already felt better, washing away the dried blood that was on his knuckles.
As he reached for his towel, he got a text from a girl he used to date a couple of months ago. It was more like a fling and nothing serious, like a lot of his interactions with women. "Hey sexy," The text wrote. Theo rolled his eyes and decided to ignore the text. He turned on his alarm from 8am the next day, drying his muscular body off on the towel. He leaned against the bathroom vanity unit and stared at himself through the steamy mirror. He felt sick from the alcohol. Theo shoved on some boxers and went back to the kitchen, preparing his electrolyte drink for the morning. His hungover self would appreciate it.
He strolled back toward his bedroom, opening up the window to allow some fresh air to seep in the musty bedroom. Theo tumbled onto the bed, wrapping his body in the sheets and slowly drifting off to sleep.

The nausea woke Wren up before her alarm. It was around 7:30am, the sun drifting through the sheer curtains as she scrambled out of bed, heading for the bathroom. She was wrenching for a good five minutes, emptying the contents of her stomach until her head was pounding. "Not doing that again," she grumbled after she had finished, turning on the shower to heat up while she brushed her teeth. The next time Holly convinced her to go out, she'd probably end up limiting herself to two drinks maximum. She hated feeling sick. Wren got into the shower, letting the steam wash over her and help her wake up for the day as she washed herself. Thankfully by the time she was getting out, the nausea had passed. She still felt like shit, but she had expected that. She got out and began drying off, soon getting dressed for her classes. She had slipped into some ripped jeans and a white crop top before pulling a dark green knit jacket. She had brushed through her hair, letting it air dry, and sprayed a bit of perfume before heading off into the kitchen area. She started herself some coffee, grabbing a banana to eat while she waited. She could hear that Holly was awake, sounding just as miserable as she had earlier that morning. Shaking her head, Wren discarded the peel as she finished her banana. She grabbed her full mug from beneath the coffee machine before placing another empty one in its place, programming it to brew for when she knew Holly would be ready. Wren sipped down her coffee as she went back into her room, slipping on her shoes before making sure she had everything she needed in her bag. Grabbing her phone off the charger, Wren placed it in her back pocket before heading back towards the kitchen, dropping off her then empty mug at the sink on her way to the door. Even hung over, she still strove to be early to class.
