Jay's POV
92Please respect copyright.PENANAb9egWUGuqn
The lake house is impressive, when I was but a boy, I used to spend a lot of my time getting utterly lost in these walls. As I watch Taylor, holding her hand in my own, I guide her down the halls as she wears an expression of awe. It's something I hadn't dared to dream up before I met her; showing a girl my place. Seeing her expression and how her eyes light up however now it is something I couldn't live without.

There's one particular room that I feel is the first place she needs to see, being that we share this place now. At the end of the hall are two large embellished doors, and just behind them I remember the stacks of shelves and the many stories that live behind them.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAz1wRHBfffy
"So this is the library" I announce opening up the two doors as she gasps. Taking a few steps forward as she looks from wall to wall speechless before turning to face me smiling incredulously.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAvz8KdBLsfq
"I knew if I had of shown you before I would have lost you to the books babe" I quip and she laughs closing the distance between us and throwing her arms around me.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAdeSkgXNOtD
"Jay..." she whispers looking up at me as I hold her in my arms.
92Please respect copyright.PENANABTCm9E1i9e
"This is immense" she says softly before I release her to explore her new favourite room, I wouldn't be surprised if she slept in here tonight, taking a few steps as she walks inside deciding what to explore first. The classics or the more modern literature, I watch her keenly.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA91rQlrltlD
"You need to see the other rooms too, how about you choose a book" I whisper in her ear as she's deliberating.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAawtOmBbmQH
"A few books and then we can see the other room" I correct when she looks at me incredulously again at the notion of only choosing one book out of all of these options.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAzAzAoMieXM
Her eyes rake over the snug area and the fireplace as I follow her around holding onto her hips. She's merely wearing my shirt and I watch as it sways over her hips when she walks, distracting me occasionally. I watch her peruse one of the aisles as I hold her body, taking in the scent of her hair and perfume.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAMiQi3TwCNG
My library contains old books and new books, text books and philosophy books. And a whole ton of fiction, right now we are in the fiction aisle as she lifts a finger over the spines of the books and pulls out a few options to read.
92Please respect copyright.PENANASAguOSlzY6
"You and the classics" I whisper in her ear as she rests her head back on my shoulder planting one soft kiss on my lips. She clasps another novel and holds it into her chest for keeps.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA08JMrNv1uJ
"Shh" she teases me with a twinkle in her eyes.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAbCDjqZECtN
"It's a library after all" she giggles as I lift her chin to mine again and kiss her passionately.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAS6xNpjg1Sp
"Very clever. That smart mouth" I whisper to her my fingertips brushing her lips.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAjlsNvpMYc6
"You love my mouth" she whispers.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAdKSzpUuQ1G
"I love your mouth, your eyes and your red cheeks. And your neck that leads to your chest. And your tummy and hips. Man I really love your hips. I have for years" I smirk turning her to face me.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAL7Lf43dbRM
"What have you chosen" I whisper staring into her eyes.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAcrbghSmL8Y
"Emma" she says softly and I nod baffled by the sheer amount of fiction that I own yet haven't read. It's almost as if I collected books subconsciously for years knowing that someday somebody like Taylor would read them all.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAWQkWzpNdDC
"Now for the next part of the tour" I giggle taking her hand as she clutches at her book. I guide her to the double doors and softly close them before we walk back through the hall and over to a seperate wing of the home. Mum used to name it our very own spa, I reflect on how she spent a great deal of time in here after the miscarriages she suffered.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAeLiTNrwRWJ
"This is, now don't laugh it's kind of pretentious" I snicker looking ahead again at the double glass paned doors, just beyond them situates a gym, sauna, jacuzzi and a forty foot indoor pool.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA5eYpuQYvQ0
"Jay you have your own library. I mean what else could you possibly have" she giggles as I open up the glass doors and guide her through the white foyer.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0u8ESKSYm
"This door here is the sauna" I explain as she paces to the end of the foyer gazing out at the swimming pool, surrounded by large indoor plants and wicker furniture. The ceiling and the skylights that allow the moonlight to shine over the water. It’s tranquil and peaceful, like a sanctuary.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA3DCDSLKrc8
“There’s a jacuzzi in there too” I whisper as she turns to face me somewhat awestruck, the jacuzzi is a new edition to the home although my dad made sure that it fitted in with the more traditional marble architecture of the pool. Taylor stares out at the views over the back of the property, the gardens and hills. A patio which has seen a few family parties and birthdays.

My hands trace over her shoulders, the fabric of the shirt collecting under them. My fingertips travel down her collar bone, over her breasts and all the way down to her tummy where I rest them.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAXB6GaAOxBr
“These are magic blinds aren’t they” she giggles as I chortle.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA5Ad0zvTwhB
“Of course although the grounds are secure, you can’t risk somebody stumbling upon your indoor swimming pool and state of the art gym” I smirk lifting the hem of the shirt and pulling it over her head to reveal her bare back. My fingertip traces up her spine and she quivers before walking into the pool, the water travelling up her body until she is fully submerged. Taylor flicks her wet hair back and I eye her unable to move. Frozen in my spot most probably gawking.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAlj3BXNHTs4
"Jay you've seen me naked so many times" she giggles as I stare at her.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA8fRHay1zIg
"You are crazy beautiful" I manage pulling off my jeans before climbing in. The water is heated as I step in approaching the love of my life as she bathes in all of her glory.
92Please respect copyright.PENANApHAE4YpBei
"You haven't told anybody about all of this?" She whispers holding onto my jaw as I reach her in the pool. I kiss her lips tenderly, closing my eyes as my hands wrap around her bare waist and hold her.
92Please respect copyright.PENANADnRw45Ursv
"No. I was told by my father not to tell anyone unless they're the one" I explain softly.
92Please respect copyright.PENANADDWPb2iXS6
"My dad believes in that. He loves my mum, she's his one. He told me, I'm sure you can imagine boyish irresponsible me not getting it, he had said one day Jay you will find somebody and they will be your other half. That doesn't mean that they're what you think you need. Rather they are a part of you, your other person to travel the world with and to love and cherish. And only that person can you ever show all this material wealth too" I tell Taylor as she watches me captivated.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAk19aKyg7Wv
"You see all of that in me?" She whispers softly before kissing my lips just once more.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAQVH3tsodiN
"I see everything in you. You are my one" I explain watching her again, assessing her reactions to see if I’m being too much.
92Please respect copyright.PENANADWmZFPauvX
"You are my one” she repeats looking into my eyes, every care I have in the world leaves me as my whole life centres around Taylor.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAVVyHWF5BzC
“You don’t speak about your father too much” she whispers as we float in the deep water. The moonlight directly above us shining over her slick hair.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAJROotN8wfj
“He works a lot. We had a tumultuous relationship. Because he was always doing something more important” I reply casually.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAbc5xjrwVD9
"He was always busy, don’t worry I won't end up like that” I explain looking into her eyes feeling the depth of my promises and how sincerely I mean the word forever.
92Please respect copyright.PENANASH7veJlf3l
"I will be there for you Taylor, in every sense of the word" I promise looking into her eyes that are full of wonder.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAcaXAkWQMxo
"You're so beautiful" I whisper moving her hair back and kissing her neck slowly as the water laps around us and we float. I possess her impulsively in the water, guiding her over to the side where she leans into the swimming pool ledge and I slowly thrust in and out of her.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA1GxUpyJ7AJ
“I will love you forever” I whisper as she grasps onto the pool side.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAuFX3wO9PnZ
“I will love you for the rest of my days” she gasps as I control the pace slowing down entirely as she whimpers.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAc0zfX1mRhc
"Tay, I need you" I tell her.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAqLm5sr945x
"You're the love of my life, my other half" I whisper once we’ve both come undone in the water, I pull her to face me holding her in my arms tightly.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAN78RbD8ZYz
"Forever Mr Gilbert Scott” she whispers kissing my lips.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAhVstAbsRUZ
"Forever Mrs Gilbert Scott" I tell her meaning every single promise, holding her and intending to never let go.
