Matty's POV
24Please respect copyright.PENANAbNz0pymLjO
"I can tell you without a doubt, Taylor is just a touch feely person. But if you would rather I don't let her hug me" I begin, we're driving to Jay's. And yes, Olivia is making an effort to be nice, but there's still this element of Taylor touched you I want to kill her.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAeqcZeUDZr9
I pull up at the gates and let us in, she rolls her eyes at me being on the security system and I smirk.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA3rKh1zhOTX
"He's my best friend" I say laughing.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAlND4OF0D5W
"And she's your ex" she scoffs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAhaa4bLpJae
"This is quite some place they have" she says looking over at me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANABGDxOp7Sfp
"It is isn't it" I laugh looking over at the cherry trees, the ones I used to gaze at when I woke up to Taylor briefly in the mornings.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA7TqKSWf6cj
"You should see the pool" I say laughing.
24Please respect copyright.PENANANqbO59AfVc
"This is going to turn into a pool party isn't it" she laughs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAArbdgPaFXO
"Who knows" I smirk over at her.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAeJblkiqmra
"I don't have any like swimwear on under my clothes" she protests.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAtlrbWrPo4h
"You won't need it" I smirk, and I wink at her.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAWomo9Qa2QJ
"Oh Matty stop it" she laughs. I place my hand on her thigh and she rolls her eyes.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAlGNTqd7iss
"You're telling me that you don't want to skinny dip with me" I ask her laughing.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAbzTdBMJ8a9
"With just you" she smirks and I roll my eyes.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAogmXCMUVBy
I park up next to Jay's car beside the water fountain and she takes a look around her. Eyes widening, she looks at the home, the grounds and the fact that there are no neighbours.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAy51pxT5nQV
"It's fancy huh" I laugh and she looks at me surprised.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAi2WQ1L4yDr
"It sure is" she laughs back as I come around to her side of the car open the door and help her out.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAeBZKR21sfu
I spot Rachel's car on the drive and guide Olivia over to the large front door, up the marble steps. I press the bell and we wait together under the porch light.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAFGT5dng1vi
Jay answers and he smiles at me pulling me in for a hug, he greets Olivia in a similar fashion but commenting on her dress saying that she looks wonderful.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAFYCq1VGecG
I remove my suit jacket and hang it in the cloakroom where I always used to and follow Olivia out past the marble staircase into the kitchen, rolling my shirt sleeves up as I go.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAxrBa5EKvt4
I gaze at Taylor first; she takes up all of my attention, wearing a cream floor length gown which is strapless. Low at the back, fabric that skims down over her bump and hangs down to the floor. Her skin glowing, with the tan she has acquired from her travels. Hair cascading down her back, and light makeup accompanied by red lips. She's a vision.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAc2CtxOuR3q
"Matthew" she whispers in my ear, pulling me in for a hug. Which I'm sure Olivia is watching eagle eyed.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAWkzvzqQyes
"Please you must look at her not me, like that. She will hate me" she whispers right in my ear. I smirk turn my head to her ear.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAlLLWFnNvvK
"But look at you" I whisper.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAwkcomGh6qB
"Look at her" she smiles at me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA3e0BBHlxly
She removes herself from my arms and goes over to Olivia. I watch her briefly before Jay takes up my attention offering me whiskey. I drove but there's space to stay.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAWiLeCcPBsQ
"Join me" he says and I smile at him taking the glass. He takes a seat around the oak kitchen island and I follow suit. Next to Ross who is currently speaking to Rachel.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAmEnxd09Lqz
Shes wearing a silver gown and where it's nice it's nothing on Taylor's. I glance over at Taylor hugging Olivia. Olivia chose an emerald dress in spite of Rachel's comments about green not being an option. It's long and both high necked and high at the back. She looks sweet.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAEXxewUcKvs
Taylor is offering her a drink, going through many options in order to find what she likes. I smile at Olivia and she returns my expression.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAKnrxJqMeLE
"Matthew" Rachel begins and I turn to her and her date.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA3e2iJLdwnq
"Yes Rachel" I say smoothly sipping my whiskey.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAY7iu91Y6oB
"Are you two a thing now" she says sipping her Prosecco.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAPTRabs44fJ
"I'm not really sure, we're just seeing how things go" I say smiling at Christopher, also wearing a suit however it's not Armani like Jay's.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAMrmsIHyyd7
"Nice to see you again man" I say to him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANABuZnaPEY1L
"You too Matty" he smiles and sips his own whiskey.
24Please respect copyright.PENANASb6APl2W8I
"I like pale pink on a guy" he smiles, looking at my shirt.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAnK9j6Y2Yhr
"Thanks Olivia insisted" I smirk at him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAgbD1iSzdar
"Brings out the green in your eyes man" Jay laughs and I smirk at him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAUzrvUvtWMQ
Taylor brings Olivia over to us, she deposits her with me, as if to say you deal with her. Unable to serve her a drink as she's too picky. She finds her way into Jays arms and smiling she looks up at him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAEimL9Owynp
"I'm going to cook now" she says looking up at him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAxEf04SOUOC
"Fajitas and enchiladas" she smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAjBDA7GHGXR
"I'm hungry now" he chuckles and she smirks at him. Is it me or are they continually taunting me with their displays of affection and love.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA38gDFJeYrU
"You can have some olives" she smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAEtCvTwsUe4
She heads over to the fridge and collects a few bowls from the cupboard, emptying the contents of the olives and cubes of cheese and tomatoes into the bowls.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAFh7HbfscqI
"Here" she says bringing them over to us. She takes an olive, places it in between her teeth and kisses him. He takes the olive watching her captivated and I look down at Olivia who is utterly bemused.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAjSd9wgvKd6
"Oh break it off" Rachel laughs swatting Jay and he laughs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAkMXKQbmieu
"What it's my wife" he says laughing and Rachel rolls her eyes.
24Please respect copyright.PENANACrzPhYPKZg
"You just love saying that don't you" she smirks and Taylor kisses him again.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAUjrdOAC9TZ
"Mhmm yes" he says when she pulls away.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAdhrINc4vgF
"Black bean, avo and peppers" Taylor says looking at Olivia, tentatively.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAUmLOduZgFC
"Would be lovely, thanks Taylor" Olivia says and Taylor smiles warmly.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA8VWr3EOYMX
"Would you like some help" Olivia says nicely, and I smile down at her.
24Please respect copyright.PENANApPaz63FMo6
"Honestly please relax you're a guest, I've got this" Taylor smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA0JLeFRJ0nb
Jay tops up my whiskey and then Christopher's. Taylor turns the speaker on and hooks up her playlist smiling, I watch her briefly remembering how we cooked in here together. I crave being alone with her, how she would sway to her music and smile over at me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA0bsJ5R7uqL
Taylor is cooking and it's distracting me, watching her walk around the kitchen whilst I'm trying to hold a conversation is difficult. Rachel is dancing around with Prosecco in her hands and Olivia is very much glued to the stool next to me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAwDQQSy37ag
"What I do isn't particularly fancy" Jay begins, Christopher is interested in his job. I would be too if I saw all of this wealth for the first time.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAbqw1mAXQoM
"I work as a COO for my dad's company" Jay says and I smirk slightly.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAqPC7GevvvW
"It's my dad's business, I was always going to get the job" he laughs modestly.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAJKYGIVAuC1
They begin talking business and I stand up to calm down Rachel. I approach her friendly and tell her that she's the only one dancing. She attempts to dance with me but I approach Taylor. Rach rolls her eyes following me and also peering over the food.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAR9uHnTRZ0r
Taylor looks up at me expectantly.
24Please respect copyright.PENANApdlkPA32U8
"Is this okay for the black beans" she says softly as I peer over her shoulder.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAiyJskUyBit
"I've always cooked meat" she clarifies. I yearn to kiss her worried little face. My hand involuntarily rubbing her back.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAogJpI3x48H
"It looks wonderful to me" I say looking down into her eyes. She asks me to chop up some peppers and onions and so I help out. Rachel gets distracted and pours herself some more Prosecco.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA0AltsVuUoT
"How's it going" Jay says and I look up. His hands now around her waist, his mouth on her ear. A smile across her face.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAd1fuoDBd6d
He's rolled his shirt sleeves up, his Rolex on show, tatoos peeking out under his pale blue sleeves.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAeUsjerEBJO
"Is somebody a bit hungry tonight" she laughs and I pass her the onions. I proceed to get on with chopping the peppers.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAD8Cc1xoHrN
He gently moves her aside and takes over frying the chicken one handed, his other arm around her bump.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAWrIhdllf9x
"I'm not even hungry for that I'm hungry for" he smirks and Olivia comes to stand by me. I smirk at her and she helps to cut up the vegetables.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA6TuDxeUrWA
"Darling" Jay says holding her from behind, he's cooking she's resting back on him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAC7lhtqijo3
"He's insatiable" Taylor laughs looking at Olivia who is just confused.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAGyTFXaf0N2
"Well look at you" Jay smirks and I envy him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAFjADJsHMp6
"Please be careful with the spatula" Taylor smirks.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAJZ535HlHgJ
"White dress here" she laughs and he kisses down her neck laughing.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAuHfpKr3ZOK
"Let me do this" he says softly and she looks up at him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAM9trNANd77
"Okay deal but can I stay in your arms" she smirks.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA5sudn46uSc
"Of course" he smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAWu10EVzIZ9
"I'm quite enjoying you holding the weight of the baby" she sighs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAQL6BH6rwMd
"What's the next step darling" he says in a southern accent and I laugh.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAh2yljgaE5d
"Jay spent a lot of time in Tennessee” I inform Olivia and he smirks over at her.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAOTyYdEDjE1
"Add the peppers, half for each pan please" Taylor laughs back at him, she eyes me briefly still chopping and I smile at her.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAucgDdfCR3g
"Matthew god darn it give me the peppers" he laughs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAz7bkn1xRn1
"On their way man" I tell him and he laughs again.
24Please respect copyright.PENANADgYz9TgOHp
"You just cannot get the staff nowadays" he laughs with Taylor and she kisses him, again.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAK0fSmRjfbe
"Babe would you give Jay those ones" I ask Olivia including her and she smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAQP5FziyObY
"Of course" she says softly.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAAkktXFeEMZ
"Here" she says to him, scooping the peppers into both pans.
24Please respect copyright.PENANARHrba8KsqU
"See some professionalism" he smirks smiling at her and Taylor looks up at me again.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAn0DjnXuVHU
"That's all I wanted" Jay teases me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAFZQYzz5SX6
"God you're hard to work for" I laugh, smiling at Taylor.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAuXbRChBQN9
"Didn't make me COO for nothing. Now chop em' Matty otherwise the chicken will burn" he laughs and I miss this side to him. The guy that has a laugh. I glance over at him and see just how happy he is with her in his arms. Joy radiating from him.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAviKZrnkVpJ
"Here we are" I say to Olivia and she passes the rest of the peppers down.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAfvfpZ3ykFh
"Okay now, Matthew" Taylor says smiling over at me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA0VVzn3jC1P
"The tortillas" she says and I begin preparing them.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAbXOc3iPXqN
"That done chef?" Jay asks Taylor and she nods as he scoops up a bit and feeds her it.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA6kYtxzjVa8
"Perfection Jay baby" she says and Olivia practically snorts. I sip my whiskey.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAyGWp7HMEfh
"Jay baby?" Olivia asks.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAS9lYrnmOky
"Yes do you not like my nickname" Jay laughs back.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAJJH2Kpdv5U
"He's my baby and I'm having his babies" Taylor laughs and Olivia smirks
24Please respect copyright.PENANAHQFD44MTFL
"Two big bowls serving ones" Taylor instructs Jay and he swipes his hair back and heads over to the cupboards.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAvMYR1RGEWe
"No cross contamination" Taylor says as he hands her the serving dishes. She looks cute spooning the veggie option into one of the bowls.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAHtKogkX1LL
"Thanks Taylor for going to all this effort for me" Olivia says softly and it's genuine.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAE4jdpNjnCi
"It's not a problem" Taylor smiles and I watch her place one on the table.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA4FFIOVxTUT
"Jay we got the meat one served up yet" she says almost clicking at him and he laughs.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAQdNE2dihMp
"On it darling" he smiles.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAZRmXlagEhj
We all take a seat and I notice that Jay sits at the head of the table. It is his table after all in his house.Taylor sits next to him and I decide to sit opposite her, Olivia to my right. I pour her a glass of wine and she accepts it, I've learned that's how you need to be with her. You don't give choices, you just give her stuff and she either accepts it or she doesn't.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAXoJwKWXFuY
"Thanks Tay" Rachel says as she sits in next to Christopher. Ross on her other side sitting next to Taylor.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAQgv4eqRY2P
"This smells amazing" Olivia says and she's positively full of the compliments tonight.
24Please respect copyright.PENANAUGuKGHEnQx
"Thank you" Taylor says smiling looking up at me.
24Please respect copyright.PENANA5vZtgAEe5i
We all make up a fajita each and I notice how Taylor waits till last. I make up a fajita and hand it to her, she thanks me graciously and I sip my whiskey before making up my own.
