Taylor's POV
April
83Please respect copyright.PENANAqD8FFqfeV3
The blur of the emergency room rushes past me, Jay was seen too almost immediately considering he had a blow to his head. Matthew and Ross had to pull him in through the parking lot, one arm over each of their shoulders. Now we're waiting, sat in plastic chairs under the glaring lights which are just far too bright. Sobering me up almost instantly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAi851zJgjKR
"He is stable Taylor. He's breathing and will be fixed up" Matty reassures me for the third time. Ross has gone to get some drinks from the hospital shop downstairs a somber look on his face as he left. Matthew pulls me into an embrace and I dont fight him, the cowgirl hat rested over my lap as I rest my head in his neck and cry. He rubs my side like he used to, fingers trailing up and down from my hips to my ribs.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAxIs5EyhUAl
"Shh." He mutters softly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAjhZzxed4DY
"Thank you" I say gazing up at him.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAaYFsXZVvuY
"If you hadn't of intervened I'm not sure they would have stopped. And for taking us here" I add.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAcspSKKzYK4
The hospital layout is confusing and unfortunately we had to walk past the maternity clinic on the way in here. I had kept my head down and securely away from glancing in. Myself and Matty heard our unborn childs heart beat in the clinic whilst we were expecting. We also lost our child here following a miscarriage. Once we left we were not the same again.
83Please respect copyright.PENANATixkuW9lTW
"Matthew" I say softly all of the memories fresh in my mind.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA5kXIqDr1N3
"Taylor" he whispers pulling my chin to face him, gazing into his face I see the man that I knew before. Prior to the miscarriage and before all of the pain.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAC3QLuWzkN7
"I haven't been able to unpack everything because it hurts" I tell him.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA74QymZssRU
"I just have the bags unopened in my dorm room" I say to him as his face softens and he strokes my face lightly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAqq4gUMFRk6
"When I wake up I expect you to be in my arms, when I'm half asleep I imagine you and then I wake up and remember" he whispers.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAXr9UxkvbFZ
Matthew kisses my neck very softly, his lips just grazing at my neck as I feel his breath on my skin. I place my hand on his cheek lightly and he moans slightly against my neck. A small sound that tells me he needs me. I sigh and hug him tightly. I greedily hold him into me, my arms encompassing him like they used to. Feeling his familiar body next to mine gives me comfort. He sighs and visibly relaxes his lips softly kissing me over and over. Then I release him.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAHZs9EBkN8C
Stroking my forearm lightly, I watch his eternity ring move up and down my skin.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAINa6yJG94o
"So you love him? How did that happen" he asks softly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAupwrqlbBpu
"He just changed and the weird thing is I knew it was the real him. He is different with me" I whisper.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA3BwdjH9NML
"But I miss you" he whispers as I lift my head to look at him and he holds onto both of my hands.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA5UzGL2WJhv
"I will always hold onto you. I will not turn you away ever. I wouldn't even be able too." He whispers to me as I watch his eyes briefly losing myself.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA7nary1c1vW
"Miss? Is it Taylor? He is awake and asking after you" a nurse says and I jump. Turning to the older lady I pull my hands from Matthew as he helps me to stand. With Matthew's hand rested on my lower back we walk into the small hospital room.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAKMF11J409x
Jay is laying back on a hospital bed, white sheets stained red from the blood that has dripped down onto them from his hands and his head. He looks at me with puppy dog eyes as I stare down at him before kissing his lips.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAr84Vpg9eFl
"I can't even tell you how annoyed I am but I'm glad you're okay." I say holding his face between my two hands.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAh5LzwL5djD
"I'm sorry" he says rasping as he sits up slowly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANALdOjxK7Pmx
"Shh" I say softly as he sits on the side of the bed with me standing in between his legs.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAK7KhQA7aed
"I'll get us a cab" I say stroking his hair back as he watches me holding onto a prescribed box of pain meds.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA4UgRvPPR3Z
"Believe me though Jay, you pull a stunt like that again and I will be so angry with you that I will not be accountable for my actions" I say meaning it, feeling Matthew smirk behind me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAU6LKC05U4T
"I understand. I'm sorry he's just such a prick. Is he okay though" he laughs slightly rubbing his face with his hand as he sighs.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAXYOFm3V3sX
"I mean it Jay, we will be through" I tell him looking him square in the eyes.
83Please respect copyright.PENANACVbo4GmOJW
"Taylor baby" he whispers trying to placate me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA7difFwUGvm
"No. More. Fighting. I know it's my fault for shouting at him. I know all of that" I say crying and he shakes his head, shocked by my tears. Matthew flinches and I know that he wants to hug me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAHQcE0msetW
"I had to worry about you not waking up Jay, or waking up as a vegetable. Unable to think or walk due to a blow to your head" I mumble crying as his hands stroke my back.
83Please respect copyright.PENANANxvK9h2yHc
"I don't like coming here, to this stupid hospital where I" I say before reining myself in from launching into a rant about how I miscarried here.
83Please respect copyright.PENANApF1E7P7mLq
"It's not okay" I whisper as he holds me into his bare chest. The door creaks and Ross stumbles in with coffees, exclaiming that there had been a long queue and how he's sorry for the wait.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAmgqcmSZmaJ
"Also man you're off the hook. Nate's awake, looks worse than you though" Ross laughs and I nod to him, his eyes turn sympathetic when he see's my tears. Grasping the coffee from him and sighing I leave the room entirely, marching my cowboy boots outside to order a cab.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAlWHfOVi9IB
Just as I stand out in the smokers area, next to a young couple who are rowing with one another, I pull my phone out and dial up the only cab firm that I know. Waiting on the line for the call to connect I spot Rachel heading in, she's hard to miss in her cowgirl get up as she stands beside me waiting for me to end the call.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA808oDbLY8I
"How is Jay" she says hugging me, and now we're just two cowgirls sobbing outside the hospital.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAkYcczXyLnf
"He'll be fine. I laid into him for fighting but really it's my fault" I say softly as she pulls away.
83Please respect copyright.PENANArNFuFrk7xL
"Thank you for sticking up for me, that was badass" she smirks and I laugh.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAe98x1RCqe0
"Anytime bestie" I tell her as she smiles widely.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAxid07ScWWS
"Now" she's says walking me through the automatic doors of the hospital as I wipe my sorry eyes.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA2DgP36QCKn
"I'm going to smooth things over with him, lord knows he doesn't deserve it." She smirks and I laugh.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAn9iYyuHJoz
"Honestly no judgement. You do what you got to do, just know that I've always got your back from any silly guy" I laugh and she smiles.
83Please respect copyright.PENANABMHJMHfzFD
"You're the best" she exclaims before sauntering off to the desk as I walk through the white hall to Jay's room. Avoiding the maternity clinic out of fear of seeing babies or pregnant bellies. Slipping into the room and closing the door behind me, three eyes flick up to mine and look at me expectantly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAMxjtVctmeB
"I ordered a cab" I say softly looking up at them and avoiding eye contact with Jay.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAnTJtiZvYs5
"So we can all go now" I murmur feeling numb as Jay walks over to me wrapping his arms around me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAIawigmCk8X
"You don't have a shirt" I whisper and he chuckles.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAlr5U9nhBoI
"I'm sorry" he whispers softly and I nod.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAN0gsBNtNT1
"Apology accepted" I say as he kisses my neck before we all leave, Matthew climbing into his 4x4 informing me that he could have given us a ride. Hugging him briefly before he leaves as I stand next to Jay under the dim lights waiting for the car to arrive.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAAKPIQCxYUV
None of us bothers with Nate but considering his name calling I'm not inclined to extend anymore acts of kindness. Jay holds me into his bare chest as the car arrives before us and we both crawl in wordlessly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAVmcIiUkaKA
Neither of us breaks our silence until we reach the elevator to his apartment, he pulls me into him again and shakes his head.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA5oJ5gGgz35
"I love you, I'm sorry" he whispers as his lips trace kisses over my neck.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAgGZVls0zYX
"I love you" I whisper back my face wet with tears as the elevator dings and he guides me out into the open space of the apartment his lips entwined with my own as he lifts me up. The cowgirl hat falls to the floor and I giggle slightly as he wipes my eyes clear of any tears.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAWk5hPTAMK9
"My boots" I laugh as he sets me down onto the comfortable sofa. He bends in front of me shirtless, and unzips the leather boots his hands reaching up my legs once he has discarded them on the floor. His lips kissing my thighs and his eyes watching mine.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA4CWhsKTiqY
"You're so beautiful" he whispers and I feel my anger melting away.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAFEIxaNuCkC
"I cannot take my eyes off of you" he smiles and I giggle resting back as he unzips my jeans shorts and pulls them down slowly standing before me he removes his Levi's and I watch him wondering if he'll ever not be able to win me over with his charm, looks and expertise in all things sex.
83Please respect copyright.PENANALudyplaSaP
"Lord Taylor" he sighs in his southern drawl as he pushes inside of me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAT2SX4lhCSN
"That dance was..." he smiles down at me and I laugh watching him bite his lips.
83Please respect copyright.PENANArdCXBCizHi
"Incredible" he smirks as his strong arms wrap around me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAVJQXZFhx93
"You're incredible" he smiles kissing my entire face all over.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAxRlQNCeluR
"Incredibly beautiful and sexy. And darn right incredible" he sighs losing himself.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAoV5MQVM7SH
He wraps his arms around me breathlessly once I've succumbed to his prowess. Laying looking into his clear blue eyes on his sofa he smiles tracing lines over my face with his fingertips.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAonFBXbTUYm
"Mmm I feel so comfortable I could sleep here with you forever" I smirk and he giggles as I look out at the inky night sky full of stars glistening in the distance.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAxGcDOCPMHq
"So you feel at home here then" he says between kissing me as I wrap my arms around his side focusing on him again, even with his busted lip he looks wonderful.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAJB5wjHNKnQ
"I do" I smile at him watching his growing smile.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA3i6FMm2Hwb
"So you can move in here then" he whispers excitement bubbling behind his eyes.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAfjLRYwQg93
"There will be no problems here, it will be us. And hey if you want to go to a party on campus that's still all good I'll just be on good boy Jay behaviour" he laughs.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAe6UD8fjZMX
"Hmm I could" I tease him smiling and slowly kissing his lips.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAyt96P1MgwU
"You could and then we could do this every night" he says kissing my lips seductively.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAbw2gMHwFVE
"Hmmm" I say kissing him back.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAmmey0zr6o5
"Are you worried about something" he asks me after a brief pause, looking directly into my eyes.
83Please respect copyright.PENANASKn5hNjGTH
"No Jay I love you" I tell him as he looks at me smiling from ear to ear.
83Please respect copyright.PENANACo4WsFOPxL
"Sooo..." he ventures, grinning infectiously.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAJoWEHeHoPX
"I'll cook for you, I'll make love to you and I'll hold you all night long" he smirks bargaining with me. His hand brushing up my sides as he smiles.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAJp24TBiTqe
"Okay, okay let's see how it goes me being here, I'll keep my dorm room, you know just in case plus I've paid it off for a month" I tell him.
83Please respect copyright.PENANABzJl5MGXVT
"Just in case?" He asks his hands firmly on either side of my hips.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAgv12gEyvzz
"Jay what if you get bored of me or you want some space. I can't just keep running to Ross and living with him." I say and his face drops a little as I imagine turning up on Ross' doorstep again and messing up his life.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAjZ7AfG4M7o
"I won't get bored. I never want to be apart from you" he says sure of himself.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAbfSjDNQSfz
"Me too." I say softly stroking his face and deliberating. I pause and he waits for me to start talking again.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAGKoagnmsqq
"When I left Matty, I literally had nowhere to go. It made things worse" I say softly remembering the night where I fled his home and ended up with all my misery at Ross'. How I eventually fell into Ross' arms and led him on and the implications of it all.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAypXncRUIIx
"And this is just my way of protecting myself against that" I say to him softly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAB3rQqU0CeZ
"But that won't happen" he says looking at me seriously.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAkGrt4Xw1tg
"I won't let you leave" he giggles and I laugh.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAu8GI2fSaPw
I kiss him again and he flinches a little at the pain of his lips. The pain medication must be wearing off I think idly wondering how much his head must be banging.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAsoAX98yNFw
"You can have more pills in half an hour. Let me cook so you can eat with them. Want your favourite?" I say to him massaging his back.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAr6kGY9Pjbj
"Mmm I want you" he smiles.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA2VEiLxcBtI
"Shhh later, what food ?" I smile, knowing that I could easily go for round two with him right now, but caring too much about his sore head.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAtTCVJGVMLT
"Can I have steak please?" He asks sweetly puppy dog eyes watching me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAmMdtrg4jno
"Steak and fries?" I ask him as he wraps me up in his arms again nuzzling my neck and chest.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA8an1tayaDC
"I'm in heaven" he declares smiling as he lifts me up and carries me in his arms through the apartment. In the late hours of night, I fry him up his steak in the state of the art kitchen as he lounges on the countertops watching me.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAjeGKkG2jPV
“You’re good at this Taylor” he smirks holding my hips from behind as cook.
83Please respect copyright.PENANALRLbgWkyFk
“What cooking ?” I smile and he laughs.
83Please respect copyright.PENANApsiCedmcL4
“Yes, but taking care of people. You’re the best at it” he smiles down at me before I plate up his food.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA33PuTPC5rK
“I love you darling” he smiles as he tucks into his steak and I set on making us tea.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAGEMMnzisgD
“I think Taylor” he smiles over at me before eating again.
83Please respect copyright.PENANA1zkjDrEOE0
“I think I’m going to end up marrying you” he giggles looking down into his food as a wide smile falls over my lips.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAAn3IVqMxiL
“Make you mine for the rest of time” he adds softly.
83Please respect copyright.PENANAmnvjA2LLGq
“I’d love that” I tell him before setting the mugs down and ruffling his blonde hair lightly as he eats. My fighting protective boyfriend, I think to myself idly as I wrap my arms around him even as he eats.
