Taylor's POV
April
95Please respect copyright.PENANADV8R079gny
The burgers are pretty tasty it's a testament to your cooking when your company finishes every last scrap of the meal you made. Perched on top of Jay's knee I finish off a few fries and he smiles looking up at me before Ross passes him the cigarette which is making them all high, putty in mine and Rachel's capable hands. Ross has eyed me a few times, but I can't blame him really with the way that I'm dressed. Jay inhales the smoke and I watch him before standing up and leaning over to retrieve my pina colada that Rachel made me. I sip it slowly sitting back down on his knee as his hands stroke my thighs.

"This is all going to get messy" Jay says to Ross as his eyes flick across the room at Jen. She made an appearance earlier, rather dramatically pulling Brad into the room in her clutches as the entire kitchen groaned internally.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA3hizbegP2l
"Why is she in my dorm? It's like you weren't invited so don't show up" I say laughing slightly as Ross eyes me.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA30xzqnMIJb
"He looks like he's into her as well" Ross says glancing at Nate who's talking to her. He's undeniably drunk, I can tell from here that he's slurring his words, his hand on her hip bones as she flirts with him unashamedly.

Jen looks different with shorter hair yet still just as mean, her ebony black hair spiked into some short bob style. Wearing an all black ensemble that exposes tattoos all over her back. Growing tired of watching her and the drama unfold as Rachel watches on deflated, I turn around in Jays lap to face him. Surprise flits over his expression as I straddle him. Ross looks away briefly and necks his brandy.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAiDE7ksLMt1
"I am so needy" I whisper in his ear and he chuckles his hands going up my back, I just know that Jen is staring daggers at me. Although Matthew had been her favourite, Jay was a very close second and it's not hard to see why.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAYi3pRH3Cog
"Have you two by the way?" I ask him as he hands me the funny cigarette and I inhale holding his eye contact.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAUCC8lyaJV5
"Taylor, we have yeah" he says honestly, knowing that I'm the jealous type and that I'll gouge her eyes out if she so much as looks upon him again.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA5hm7RO56ds
"I hate her" I say as Ross scoffs and I hand him the joint, we've been sharing this one exclusively and the effects of it are hitting me hard.
95Please respect copyright.PENANABQrohAW8ta
Jay pulls me closer into him as my hips rock lightly to the sway of the music that is booming, Ryan has his best playlist on and it's compelling me to dance.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAF3bxx1BkIB
"Baby" he sighs eyes flicking down to my hips before travelling back up to my lips.
95Please respect copyright.PENANADTqHrOsSwI
"I love you, I never felt anything for her. I never felt anything for anybody" he says keeping his eyes trained on me.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAlcIGvRYa5I
"Jay you're a very sweet stoner and I love you too" I smile practically pinching his cheeks.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAW4EaKMnTvU
"Maybe I should distract Rach and try to diffuse the whole situation." I say to him softly as his eyes rake in my body sitting on top of him.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAVFbB4U6Plk
"Mhmmm" he sighs taking the joint from Ross and thanking him.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA8axm6lw3Zg
"You're very distracting" he smiles down at me, biting his lip.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAztIKGeHaa3
"Shh we've had sex several times today, are you not tired of me yet?" I tease him, slowly kissing his lips.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAoOJJCatVQ2
"Never will I be done with you" he smiles breathing in sharply before I nibble his lip.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA2awdkkYXYy
"Oh not fair" he teases, his finger brushing my hips.
95Please respect copyright.PENANABNbbgAEKLR
"I will take you away and undress you, don't test me" he smirks.
95Please respect copyright.PENANADDST87AeBK
"Oh that sounds more like a promise" I say softly pulling his shirt up and over his head as he chuckles.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAh6brT9MKap
The music swells as the track changes and I stand up before him, stroking one hand down his chest as I look down into his eyes. Hearing whooping around me which I block out focusing purely on the lust just behind Jay's eyes.
95Please respect copyright.PENANABbwtKPfAM8
Facing my body entirely towards him I begin dancing, as Rachel saunters over and smirks.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAohAqcqDcaJ
"Here Ross darling" she smiles standing over him as I wink at her.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAegrvjz5so2
"You're..." Jay smiles as I raise my finger to his lips and shh him.
95Please respect copyright.PENANATmmsZ5v4K8
"Shhh" I say stroking his lips.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9l0FL1JVgX
"In a minute I'm going to make you another drink" I whisper in his ear, and he nods transfixed on me. Occasionally his fingers brush my hips as I move before him.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA3Wn2GmCb7o
"Jay" I whisper in his ear as his hand lingers on my thighs.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAP4Q4jHaeRO
"You can have anything and everything you want from me" I say lustfully feeling him breathe in sharply.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9xYnRgeijQ
"Everything I'll take it all" he sighs as I giggle and move freely to the music. Swaying and playing with my hair as I do. The seat beside us creaks as Matthew sits down beside Jay. Matthew passes him a brandy before lighting up a cigarette nonchalantly next to us.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAkSljTb79NJ
"Rachel?" Nate's annoying voice booms to my left and I do my best to block him out, he will not ruin my evening or my first sexy dance in front of my boyfriend.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAd8swpdOKIA
"What are you doing?! Jesus. I thought we were a thing" he says manipulatively as I turn to face her and see the deflation all over her face. The embarrassment and the sadness which falls over her eyes. In my intoxicated state I bark back at him, who cares about the peace offering? I tried but Nate is unimaginable, flirting with Jen in front of her and then accusing Rachel of being the problem.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAiMnXtgFgNo
"Excuse me" I say halting my sexy dance and squaring off to him as Rachel watches me laughing slightly.
95Please respect copyright.PENANABwQzAqOK6k
"No not having it, how dare you have a moan at Rachel when you're a stupid little fuck boy that hits on other girls in front of her." I say defensively and it rattles him, his eyes turning cold staring straight into my own with defiance and anger.
95Please respect copyright.PENANASnV3m4AU0b
"Truth hurts does it?" I laugh mimicking his words from this morning.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAe8j2aud6ji
"I'll tell you what Taylor" he begins as Jay brushes his hair back aggravated.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAMEdNqR44Me
"The truth about you is you're a dumb slut who thinks that she can win over any man in her vicinity" he laughs as Jay moves me swiftly, spaced out from the weed I fall into Matthew's lap. Jay stands briskly and I regret my big loud mouth.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAZuOXrY6HJP
"Outside" Jay says to him quietly although after my outburst the room is silent enough for everybody to hear.
95Please respect copyright.PENANANZvAL3qm8y
Looking up at Matthew as he steadies me before my eyes watch on as Jay marches behind Nate, pursuing him out of the kitchen. A huge sneer on Jen's face as she clocks the commotion.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAzMYhZEC4H3
Scrambling up from Matthew's embrace I stumble through the kitchen cursing my high boots, sure that the others are calling after me. Yet somehow even through their objections I manage to get to the hall.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA1XyLEF58g6
Holding onto the wall for support I make my way down the hall trying not to fall, a combination of anxiety and worry mixed in with anger spurring me on as a hand steadies me. Delaying my stumbling as I collapse into his chest and he catches me.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9g6aSRIVsX
"Steady Taylor I'm here" Matthew says holding onto me rather tightly.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAX9vQpTRkWj
"How did they get out so fast" I say confused looking up at him.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAmrXrHHpxuC
"What if he hits Jay" I worry feeling his hands rub my back momentarily.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAUzaUUJVDHk
"I think he's more than capable of handling it, he's bigger than Nate" Matty says reassuringly, gazing at me as I smile feeling hazy and confused.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAfYVwo5w9oF
"Fuck" he swears and I'm momentarily shocked, I jump and he pulls me into him. My mind races over what might be occurring outside, worry seizing me again.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAQ22JlH1NOa
"What" I say confused as he bends his face to my own.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAubwNzo7pXN
"You, I love you. and I'm so done looking at you and telling myself that I can't anymore" he whispers leaning me against the wall in the hall as he stands holding me under the lights. Time slows down as he gazes into my eyes holding me just like he used too, preparing to kiss me. His lips just inches from my own.
95Please respect copyright.PENANATeUHyEx05S
"I love you too, but I love him Matty" I whisper as my head spins.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAnOo9vcdq3x
"I know that's awful, that I love you both, but..." I explain through my convoluted feelings.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA1pUpAhW47l
Just as he's about to set his lips upon mine, as he's about to seize the opportunity to kiss me we both hear shouting. He curses pulling me over to the door and heading out through the porch. The cold air hits my bare skin when we're outside and I shiver taking in the scene unfolding on the lawn before me. Cars parked up around the house all over the place where our friends have driven to us for the party, and the dull street lamp illuminating the small basic garden. Blood stains Jay's hands, my eyes travel up to his face as Nate hits him square in the jaw. My stomach turns and I feel sick and angry at them both as Matthew pulls me into his chest.
95Please respect copyright.PENANABSdZoKEByA
"For fucks sake, I made you dinner" I shout over to them, realising they're not listening to me, I feel like a little mouse squeaking at two lions.
95Please respect copyright.PENANArFM8hErtW8
"I gave you my peace offering and you had to piss all over it" I say to Nate as Matthew holds me back from marching over to him and hitting him myself. Nate pauses momentarily and glares at me, Jay takes the opportunity to hit him in the jaw.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAMa39vZlGB6
"Jay I swear to God stop being a complete arse" I say shouting at him, if I can get him to stop then perhaps the fighting will cease.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAVkJbiK0fEl
"I swear Jay that's it between us if you..." I begin as he punches Nate again and I curse.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAcUvjj18BAe
"You're really not good at reading what these guys are like. What they would do for you? How aggressive they are" Jen says behind me, her voice snarky. I wheel around to face her as she laughs and Matthew jumps Jay from behind holding back both of his arms. Ross deposits Rachel next to me as Jen scoffs, he runs to Nate and slams him against a car.
95Please respect copyright.PENANABmIHAcDp98
"And look the whole gang Tay. This ones still not over you." She says looking at Matthew as Rachel tells her to shut up and get a life.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAXeAo7PVN6L
"And even, I hear Justin likes you. Making a name for yourself I see" she quips laughing.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAXAUv71syOG
"She was sticking up for me you idiot. This isn't even about Taylor, so leave her the hell alone" Rachel laughs at Jen.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAeiM7D1KNIe
"Hospital, I'll drive" Matthew calls over to me as Rachel approaches Nate gingerly.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAb8Dy1M2b2m
"I'm sober" he says eyeing my expression before he guides Jay over to the 4x4. Depositing Jay into the backseat as he slams the door shut at looks up at me expectantly, I climb in the passenger side and buckle up.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAUBK4F8zu8c
"It's the head trauma, I'm just worried it's a blow to his head" Matthew says turning the car over and manoeuvring it out of the space he's tightly parked in. Ross knocks on the drivers door and he pauses to let him in.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA1hDOOlvFrw
"No hitting each other in my car please" Matthew quips as Rachel shoves Nate in next to Ross. Matthew manages to reverse the car out using the cameras and I glance over at him as he drives quietly through campus. His free hand grasping at a cigarette as he lights up and cracks the window open just a touch.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAgeK3LeDeAR
"You all good Taylor?" Matthew asks once we're hurtling down the highway, lights passing us by and service stations that are still open serving burgers and shakes.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAoIjEMI2Ooe
"Mhmm" I say cranking my head to look at Jay who has his head in his hands.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAEzBciyLR6S
"Ross is he awake?" I ask slightly shrill. Ross eyes him, gently rocking his head back.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAqLX1pfCxvl
"Jay dude" Ross says softly.
95Please respect copyright.PENANA1Oghza9hUU
"Man he's unconscious Matty" Ross says finally and a few tears escape my eyes. I breathe in slowly to stop myself from full on sobbing.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAeedpDWPOIO
"Taylor" Matthew says placing one hand on my knee.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAdB6b3pktdR
"He will be fine, he's just had a whack" he says softly.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAK8cyJzTJXP
"Yeah his pulse is good and breathing is fine, slightly elevated but yeah the adrenaline" Ross admits not wanting to alarm anybody further.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAKR5fmmYura
Closing my eyes, I wait for the reassuring a&e sign, just hoping that Jay will wake up soon smiling at me like he always does and talking to me in his southern drawl. Feeling utterly responsible for this fight, had I of not got involved in the drama between Rachel and Nate perhaps this would not have escalated.
95Please respect copyright.PENANATobzaUdDIC
“It’s my fault” I say softly as Matthew swears openly looking out of the window.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAM1AoIokVUF
“Not at all Taylor” Ross says defiantly from the back seat.
95Please respect copyright.PENANAxlVBUJ1t9H
“What if something happens to him because of me” I say crying again and Matthew hushes me, rubbing my thigh and telling me that everything is going to be just fine.
