Taylor's POV
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5E83fjk96
As I glance over at Matthew, driving us back home, he had collected me from Jay's and I am almost positive that he's uncomfortable with my being around him. Regarding his tense expression, I decide that telling him about the blood is not the best idea. I watch him grip onto the wheel before he indicates into our road.

"How was art" I say softly rubbing his thigh and he relaxes next to me.

"It was okay, we should stay off university for a bit" he says eyeing me warily concern shadowing his face in the gloomy dark car. The street lights illuminate his cheekbones as he passes by and I watch him.

"It's tiring you out Taylor; we need to take it easy. I cant always be there for you if I'm distracted with art or exhibits or anything else" he explains, we have a couple of weeks before Christmas break and I need to fulfil my role in the dance performance. I protest and he pulls up in the drive coming around to my side and helping me out of the car.

My absolute first thought is to check on the blood in the bathroom as we head into the house. I practically bound up the stairs and lock myself in the bathroom. Pulling at my clothes worried, I strip off and eye my bump in the mirror. Turning to the side and seeing the curve protrude from my tummy I smile. I stroke over bump and feel a sense of relief that there is no fresh new blood to be found. Pulling on Matthew’s striped button up shirt I descend the wooden staircase intent on relieving his worries, now that mine have also been eased.

Watching him from the door, I lean on the wooden frame and he looks up smiling. I had changed into his shirt, the button up one that I wear continually. The buttons just stretching around the bump as I wear it in front of him. His arms encircle me in the hall and he carries me up the stairs, his mouth to mine.

"Sorry for being heavy handed" he whispers laying me down on our bed and moving the shirt up to kiss down my belly. I giggle and he smiles up at me.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FFnPOIVZu
"University is important, I just worry." He sighs and I place my hands through his hair.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN89CbImeIL
"I'm happy that you were safe and warm and eating pizza instead of sitting waiting in the cold too" he admits and a small smiles stretches across my lips.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SGIJYu3NX
"I thank him for that at least" he sighs and chuckles. Rubbing his back softly as he lays in my chest I feel his breathing deepen and smile. I pull my hands through his curls and he sighs before kissing me sleepily. Matthew rolls over and I check my phone briefly, intending on googling spotting and blood during the second trimester. Glancing through my messages I notice one from Gilbert Scott.

You left your ice cream here. Jay x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23bJpVksge
I tap a message back to him smiling and wait for his reply.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOcKiWoSRS
You are more than welcome to my ice cream. Fancy another revision session in a couple weeks. We need to catch Ross up x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54vdpzXvBu
I send back to him and eagerly await his reply.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1qIA9l0Mv
You're a square. Don't worry I'm eating it right this very moment. Yes curry this time? Do you like curry?x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZ7SYzwOVb
He replies and I smirk looking down at my phone in the dark. Running my hands through Matthew’s hair as I read it.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq77YrfyvPA
Yes I'll make you one, better than any takeout I promise x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBWtnbLPoG
I type back and Matthew huddles closer to me.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI11bmxwR9C
Wish I could call you and describe this ice cream to you, it's exquisite just like you and your cooking x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6C6GbcXfU
Flattery gets you everywhere doesn’t it I smirk and type my reply.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgG8qabIlv0
I thought you said you wouldn't call me anymore x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSfl605QRD
I tease him and smile down at my phone.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2d2z5ojjj
Well are you being naughty Taylor or good Taylor. It's a factor I'll have to weigh up before I hit the call button x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjsk4yk68l
I consider that for a brief minute; what does Jay like about me I wonder. Good girl taylor or the girl that sighs down the phone. I decide to test him.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiHFP9rORJ
Good girl Taylor x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBGW7uqvxC
I reply looking up at the ceiling and waiting for his response.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqfJojb5RN
That's irresistible please can I call you x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7a5LY6STgm
Before I can stop myself I pace downstairs to the kitchen and place the iron kettle on the stove before messaging him back telling him yes.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sJsd0SJYN
“I thought you liked my bad side” I whisper to him as the call connects and he chuckles.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vYywZrYOl
“I like all of it” he whispers and I laugh.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbK5OO5NLMh
“Can I tell you something” he smiles down the line.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQiR4XjC88
“Go ahead” I whisper.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBviDQy1jCa
There’s a pause before he speaks, he’s forming his words. Working out how to convey his ideas.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzjvG6JiXs
“You're the best friend I've ever had. You include me in shit and you make incredible food. You are mad talented and you make me feel comfortable. You care about people” he says earnestly and I’m caught off guard, staring out of the dim kitchen window and wondering what has brought this on.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfOpixCpWu
“Plus...” he says cheekily and I giggle.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO7ouPRFyd
“Plus…” I repeat to him waiting for him to get it off his chest, standing and heading to the stove to pour myself some green tea.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHuwXqzrYc
“Plus you kinda were my first” he laughs.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4J9gjMncv
“That’s a lie” I smirk
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgDMYd9ajb
“You were my first ever phone sex, it's a first I can't forget” he chuckles and I laugh.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdPzprr8Kf
“Now I know why you cannot look at me” I sigh and he laughs openly.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9rnBxDL5x
“Oh Taylor, It's all I can do but to look at you,or think about it when I'm alone eating ice cream like a bloody lovesick dog” he laughs and I chortle.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNWas7R0mJ
“What can I say you caught me at the wrong time, I was already busy” I whisper and I can feel the smile stretch across his lips.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAzobR3O1W
“Maybe we can just do it together next time?” He whispers and I smile down into my lap.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYwMieu5iP
“Jay” I say softly and he shh’s me before laughing.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQAOTxY3CZ
“You’re biting that lip aren’t you” he sighs.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1p0t4kNg17
“Not at all” I smirk and he sighs.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLZCDiqpYf
“Are you eating the ice cream still” I ask and he laughs.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8CK42CgZd
“I am good choice by the way” he says softly.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS8iPOanNW
“Taylor where have you visited in the world” he asks me out of the blue.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcEzhvcvv1
“We didn’t really go on holidays, my mum being a single parent was unable to take me to lots of places. Other than around the states and to Canada” I explain.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKlxMyJlUV
“Canada is nice weirdly I haven’t really visited there much. I would love to take you to Australia” he begins getting carried away with himself.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAPILUE59X
“There’s so many open spaces, there’s the outback and deserts and of course kangaroos” he giggles and I listen to him intently.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2HyP8WWDD
“Surfing and good food” he smiles down the phone.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyg6jScKnc
“One day huh” he says and I giggle. Who knew that Gilbert Scott was so into travelling and culture.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwy3bwGu3jE
“I’m going to let you sleep” he laughs almost self consciously.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1abt4sWMZy
“My ego can’t take you falling asleep on the phone again” he laughs.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRmCWbZrgv
“Good night Jay” I whisper and he sighs happily.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATcDFhLOTP
“Good night Taylor” he whispers back before we end the call.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgUrL3NNeP
With my phone placed down on the table I check that the stove is off before I take my warm cup of tea up the wooden stairs to bed. Undeniably Jay Gilbert Scott has changed towards me in a way that I could not have imagined. Professing that he wants to take me to foreign lands and essentially whisk me away is a grande statement. I’m not entirely sure that he extends that kind of invitation to other women and it makes me grow curious. Wondering how I have been able to illicit this response from him at all, that is indeed if he is being genuine. Before I fall asleep I finish my tea, it calms my nerves and the bubbling excitement that has taken ahold of me.
