Taylor's POV
88Please respect copyright.PENANA7aoTG7dL8U
Sunday comes by and we wake up late from the champagne, I begin to question drinking and then practically slap myself considering we've only had unprotected sex a handful of times. Although going forward being cautious would be beneficial seen as we are actively trying. Pulling on a cream cami dress and a navy hoody I eye Jay in his jeans and jacket before he kisses me and guides me down to the indoor garage.

A shiny white pristine brand new Ford ranger awaits us as he grins happily. Another car I hadn't been aware of, it's the ultimate bad boy truck and I giggle as we climb in and he roars the engine to life.

"Today we eat breakfast out, buy new stuff for our home and move you in officially" he explains softly as he drives the car to the gate and it opens up automatically. We stop off at a drive in for pancakes and coffee and I swoon over the blue in his eyes and how he's pulled half of his rugged blonde hair back into a knot. He smiles at me and helps me back into the car after our pancakes before we progress onto a home store.

"Planning on having quite the birthday party" I smile and he laughs as we peruse the glassware and I put a set of crystal champagne flutes into the basket.
88Please respect copyright.PENANACWxA14gQ86
"We have enough rooms for people to stay" he smiles as we progress through the frames and mirrors. I gaze into a long curved ornate gilded mirror and he smirks.
88Please respect copyright.PENANALyGkxscEgz
"See you're beautiful" he smiles standing behind me. His arms around my waist as he declares that the mirror would look good in our master bedroom. He's all muscle when he lifts it delicately and places it in the large push along trolley.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAZ13oR43gxO
"Hey look" he smiles catching me off guard as I follow his eye line to a brand new grill. The type of fancy bbq that is more like a huge gas oven.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAxhm704mK5Z
"That's nice" I laugh as he gets drawn in by it, almost rolling my eyes as he picks up the tongs.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA4wcDnoLnJA
"Jay" I giggle as he inspects it.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAATIrm3Xipb
"I didn't realise you were so into bbq's" I giggle as he looks up at me incredulously.
88Please respect copyright.PENANARC5RbhBf6m
"We can use it for your birthday party" he justifies and I smile.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAuqmA5pLGzG
"Plus I'm partially Australian. I grew up there" he giggles as I hug him and he takes down the product number to collect a flat packed version of it.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAi1C2ALJnyg
Honestly we could not look more like a young couple moving in together loading our ranger up with our new items. He smacks the ranger shut at the back and then turns to me in the lot.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAFCNPKMGxny
"Only midday. Let's grab the last of your things?" He suggests as I hug him.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAySW7DySJpq
"I'm totally fine to do all the lifting" he says glancing at my tummy.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAOOilzn9iHe
"You're incredible" I smile looking up at the golden sun beating down on him and his halo of hair. He helps me to climb into the passenger side before we set off again.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAmGJnfgAn6G
"You know this car is great" he says softly one forearm rested on the door frame as he drives through the sunshine.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA0iQrAczkNE
"It's nice" I say simply as he grins.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA12CzS6gplc
"Oh more of an Audi girl are we?" He giggles.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAR2BqE7QXTX
Sitting here now, his hand on my thigh as he drives straight through the interstate I do miss the Audi. I sigh how did I become so privileged? Coming from a middle class background where my family owns only one car to being with somebody who owns multiple cars, high range models and Harley Davidson bikes is somewhat of a culture shock.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA2R3PEDtszF
"I like the Audi it's comfy" I defend and he rubs my thigh.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA6s6pO9mlGR
Taking the exit for university he smiles over at me. I recognise all of the sights on the way. The lanes that lead up to campus that are lined with trees, sun filtering through the leaves and reaching us sporadically.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAB7qzJApe2q
I find myself obsessing over the tones in his hair from the light platinum highlights to the golden undertones. And how his complexion is perfectly tanned under his open shirt. The first time I laid eyes on him I knew just how undeniably beautiful he was, I refused to acknowledge it at the time as I was in a relationship with Matthew. Unavoidable however it was that he weaved his way into my life. The first time he smiled at me, the first time he said my name were moments that I had to deny. He set my body alight. He challenged me and I was drawn in from day one. I believed that he was so far out of my league for his affections to last.
88Please respect copyright.PENANArr0spHPmAu
He scrapes his hair back and I remember him taking me in the back of the Audi last night. I blush and his hand returns to my thigh.
88Please respect copyright.PENANApjFJYAk6jv
"Okay babe" he smiles over at me as he parks up outside the silent dorm house, assuming that there was a party last night everybody is still asleep so I plan on a quick unseen getaway.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA7h3uv6YBOg
"Perfect" I say back as he begins to get out and grab my door for me. Looking up at the white porch and the large sash windows I sigh slightly, reliving the parties and the dramas.
88Please respect copyright.PENANARgMZWx3eN7
"I'm going to let the office know tomorrow" I say to him as we walk up the wooden steps and unlock the door with my keys.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAsRfCmosYQ7
"I'll grab stuff from upstairs" he announces as I kiss him in the quiet hall. Handing over my keycard before he climbs the carpeted stairs and begins gathering my stuff.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAbTPxZvYsKs
Quietly I crane the kitchen door open, setting my eyes on the bottles and the cups left in the wake of another party. I like to imagine my house parties will be classier but I'm sure we'll make just as much mess in the lake house. My eyes settle on Ross and Matthew asleep on the sofas and I cannot help but to laugh.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAyhEk2UbjEx
What I know is mine I take, and actually it's a great deal as none of the other students seemed to stock up on food or kitchen utensils so the kitchen is fairly bare once I've finished. Placing the crockery into a large box and wrapping the items that are delicate I quietly carry the box over to the door. Hooking it open with my foot and attempting to carry out my stuff when a hand grasps the door open for me. I look up at Matthew holding the door open for me and glance down when I realise that he is shirtless.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAZwWQ1yK5fw
"Thanks" I laugh slightly.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAnIUEhlBsB3
"Want some help ?" He asks still half asleep, rubbing his eyes.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA9j3LpAaayg
"No you're all good go back to sleep" I whisper as he watches me confused.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAbToH60gKPl
"Are you having a dinner party or something" Ross laughs standing up from the set of sofas in just his boxers.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAcYmZgrcaQ4
"Hey no I'm sorry both of you go back to sleep" I sigh laughing. Being pursued by both of your shirtless ex boyfriends whilst you're trying to smoothly exit and move out with your current boyfriend is definitely something that could only happen to me. Ross pulls on a pair of Levi's, as Matthew takes the box from me and walks me out to the hall. Placing my sunglasses back on as we head out to the drive and the sun glares at us. Ross pushes his hair back confused and Matthew sighs slightly eyeing the new ranger and figuring it all out.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA7ux72RlJ2D
Jay has been busy I realise looking over at the boxes before turning to the porch.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAaTg3wcWb4t
"Got most of it" he smirks at me ignoring both of my ex's next to me. He's a saint I realise as he doesn't even bat an eyelash at Matthew scorning at him and Ross eyeing me up in my dress. I notice that he's removed his shirt and I begin to wonder whether it's an unwritten rule that when moving stuff you must take your clothes off.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAPKy7PH4vfO
"Tay you're moving again?" Ross smiles inquiringly as I pull off my hoody and stand in the direct sun soaking up the rays.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA1x4PRwKl91
"This was only temporary really" I say making light of the situation as I pull my cami dress straps up.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAPIy6b51S0V
"Taylor remember when you told me about moving into dorms" Jay smiles hugging me around the waist.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAdYNPLjiuzg
"We were walking from psych class and she was like I'm just going to see how it goes." He giggles mimicking me as I grin and Matthew looks chagrined.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAgyfnbRrWkp
"We went to the office together, she was all like can I have a quiet room!" He jokes and I laugh.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAOWfxancKDd
"And look what I got, party central" I laugh out loud and he shakes his head hugging me
88Please respect copyright.PENANAE1cnz4oU94
"We will have classy parties at our place. Like dinner parties and pool parties" he sighs as I giggle.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA9XMDau3Mbb
"BBQ pool parties" I suggest as he grins and kisses me.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAyCrEJjSUm6
"An indoor bbq" Ross chortles imagining us in the apartment. It's my belief that none of Jay's friends know about his lake house however from Matthew's surprised expression I realise that he is aware at least about Jay's wealth and other properties.
88Please respect copyright.PENANADwOo0kWcRu
"We're not staying at the apartment" he says with a wry smile before heading over to the drivers side as Matthew stares daggers in his back.
88Please respect copyright.PENANACjH2K3baK3
"Looks like we're gonna get it all done in one day" he smirks before chucking his shirt in the drivers side and heading back up the steps. The excitement over his face as he practically skips back into the house.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAfX2bMwo0KM
Walking into my dorm for the final time, and taking in the bare walls and empty shelves I wipe my eyes. I realise I will miss Rachel and the sisterhood we have developed over the past month; getting ready for parties together and drinking wine. And most importantly sorting out all of the boys and their fighting. I wipes my eyes as Matthew stands by the door whilst Jay carries my suitcase down the block of stairs. Unpinning pictures from my notice board one by one, shots taken by me of all of my friends.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA3FRLJQ2UqI
"I'll miss you" Matthew whispers as I place my fingers over an image from the cowboy cowgirl party that I hosted. We're all in it, placing it in my diary I turn to him and tell him that I'll still be here.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA1VZzp5FdVn
"You're staying at the lake house" he says eyeing me knowingly before he swishes his hair back approaching me slowly.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAfvOngXUGKp
"Yes" I nod slowly.
88Please respect copyright.PENANANWH0JxsQd8
"I guess I understand why he's not making it public knowledge" he whispers watching me.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA12S93JMWow
"Jay and I just want our own space. Our own time away from everybody" I explain softly as he scoffs.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA3WjVLfkGPg
"Does your mom know?" He asks rather intrusively.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAJRoB14IEuN
"Not sure how that makes a difference" I defend as he smiles slightly to himself. I grab my diary and place it in my bag ignoring his attitude. Ross shakes his arms as he walks through the door frame.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA5S83Wz9P7O
"Heavy?" I giggle as he rubs his biceps.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAGL406CXYI1
"Just a touch" he laughs slightly eyeing me before Jay appears at the door.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAWC3T4c63V9
"Ready?" He says softly ignoring Matthew entirely still.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAZduEQnJ6Ox
"Ready" I smile back at him.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA98Ltd0urfK
"Bye cold shower" I laugh walking past the small ensuite.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAiTC2zMObeF
"See so now you admit it. That shower was cold as fuck" Jay laughs holding my back as he guides me out of the room. I hand him the keycard as we descend the stairs to soak up the sun outside.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA3gEzf6bWMJ
"We'll still be at those parties though don't you worry" I laugh looking over at Ross as he stands arms folded by the truck.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAQWNUtQIiwb
"Maybe not to get so drunk" I laugh as Jay nods.
88Please respect copyright.PENANACd9PjHqUc3
"Oh let's see this tattoo?" Jay asks smiling as Matthew lights up offering Ross and Jay one. Jay refuses as Ross sparks up.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA9XH3Tz5Spj
Ross lifts his shorts to show us as I smile and Jay commends the design.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA4qgC1of0D7
"Yours looks a lot less red than mine" I laugh removing one of my straps and showing off my treble clef, I figure I'm wearing a non sexy bra which is almost a crop top and so I don't feel exposed.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA5n34O7m9IJ
"Tay that suits you" Matthew says and I thank him.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAexf7yCkPbP
"Shall we get some more healing cream on the way home babe" Jay says and I'm sure he's letting that sink in for the other guys. He's being possessive.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAsimVJwk2kq
Pulling my strap up I dump my bag in the front of the truck. I smile at Jay and go and stand next to him. His arm loops around my waist and I allow him to pull me in.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAJuRamaADfs
"It's making me think I now want another one" Jay laughs.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAi7f7YQ80Ll
"What would you get?" I ask him looking up at him.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAhC6rGpv0Ld
"I'll have to think" he smiles back as Rach bursts through the door at all of the commotion. Dressed in her pyjama trousers as Nate follows her in his joggers and nothing else.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAttN4ENDs7L
"Tay what's the noise about neighbour" he smirks ruffling his hair back.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAjrkIxUwg5a
"Oh I'm not your neighbour anymore" I laugh, from hating each other we managed to turn our annoyance of each other into a friendship in a relatively short space of time.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAFNu4NPXHWu
"Ah that's ashame" he sighs as I smirk, watching Rachel's facial expressions turn from realisation to utter shock.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAStdtgACXvZ
"You're moving in together" Rach exclaims completely abashed.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAcBCCwIkxyD
"Yeah" Jay sighs humorously.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA0Y3C24BU9N
"She's been bugging me about it for weeks" he sighs clearly joking around as I swipe at him and he grasps my arm pulling me into an embrace, we are making our friends sick with our continuous affection.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAL6W6dANxPR
Rach glares at me mouthing tell me everything as Justin appears by my side and I half jump. Of course, he's the only guy that's dressed properly. He's wearing khaki jeans and a white button up shirt.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAJomJIMfMnm
"What's going on" Justin says eyeing the truck as we all chuckle at him. He looks at us nonchalantly.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAQbf8tr549v
"I'm moving" I say smiling as he watches my mouth and then takes in my white strappy dress.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAsk4Q6nt1iO
"Ah okay" Justin sighs rolling up and joining the others in a morning smoke. So now we're a smoking circle.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAzEr7wSeOnx
"Oh let's see this tattoo" Rach squeals at me as I flash her briefly and Justin averts his eyes like a gentleman. She gushes over it saying it's so perfect and that it must have so much meaning for me.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA2erBX2VXAZ
"Well it was nice being neighbours, even if it did result in a few punch ups and more than a few parties oh and seeing your tits" Nate laughs.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAdqSA5ONMGO
"Yeah you're welcome" I retort sourly.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAuNRHC4Txe7
"We'll still be partying here anyways" I smile.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAsK9UaXymQh
"Good to hear it" Justin smiles at me and I look away quickly.
88Please respect copyright.PENANA4PfnG5Cc7C
"We'll see you guys tomorrow" I say to them. Jay releases me and gets the keys out of his jeans.
88Please respect copyright.PENANAJuZI64GTdU
I hug Ross and Matty and then head to the passenger side of the car hoping in next to Jay. He speeds off and we don't look back.
