***Jay's POV***
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCq6Rt2kjeE
Rachel bundles into the house and I sigh, time alone with Taylor finished for another evening. I nod at Nate as he passes by. He shows me a bottle of whiskey and I smile at him.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwGnNr6mLn
"Perfect" I say, meaning it.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajfJDsmEhR
Rachel is already in the kitchen pouring out the Prosecco and rummaging through the boxes that they ordered. The dresses are hanging upstairs, Taylor insisted on that, but she won't let me see her dress until she is in it. I'm intrigued. As always she will look amazing and way out of anybodies league.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbUGc98Oev
I glance at her now, my T-shirt hanging off of her, it reaches her mid thigh and I imagine my hands underneath it, just like they were earlier. I look over at Nate who is lounging on a stool, gaping at Taylor. Her hair swaying down her back as she's cooking. I don't blame him of course, I've been there.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKBicb9i8O
I grab two glasses and retrieve the whiskey from him. Pouring him a neat shot and one for myself. I will not mention it or make a deal out of it, I will not fight anybody.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJMgvDEUNO
"Okay let's see these dresses" Rach says.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYOxyqcusF
"Sure go have a look" Taylor replies serving up food. She takes a step back and pulls her hair up into a long ponytail. I fantasise over pulling her hair. Amongst all of the other things I do to her.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v8wqCKAiK
She places the food in front of us and I smile at her brushing her thigh as she passes me. I'm not entirely sure if she realises the sex appeal that she possesses. She must recognise how much other guys stare at her. She had quite the effect on Ross this morning when she got off of my bike. I have to keep him in check, and I'm doing that by being present in our relationship and maybe a touch clingy. Laying on the PDA. I hope she realises just how much I will be touching her tonight.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiwUSDjVD6
She sits down and eats with us and we all hear Rachel bundling down the stairs, talking before she even gets to us.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLVuGAELzn
"Taylor that dress is.." she begins gasping
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo8CTTUXIU
"Shhh. It's a surprise" Taylor smiles at her and rubs my thigh.
"I think you're gonna like it babe" she whispers to me.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yQpodSg2v
I smile back at her.
"Can't wait" I say winking at her.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwQHKRgEbl
We finish our food and then she kisses me leaning over me as I'm sitting at the table. I want to pull her on top of me right here right now. Teasing she pulls away smiling. And the girls head upstairs.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6qRHnScTz
"Jay" Nate says after a while.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WRDGQCqxu
I look over at him.
"You are one lucky motherfucker" he laughs.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KvkQeJcXu
I laugh back at him. He's right of course.
I will not do anything to mess this up. He's definitely on her, just like Ross and Matty and even Justin.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTiNlCB2bx
However I must keep myself in check tonight, that means no punching anybody, not even Matty. No comments, no scraps and certainly no fighting. My hands will remain on her all night long. I've lost count of the number of times Matty and I have scrapped with each other, hit each other and hospitalised each other even.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtON1edy91l
That cannot happen tonight. It will not.

***Taylors POV***
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RTeqCQO7h
Rach and I head upstairs to mine and Jays room. She marvels looking into the bathroom as we go. She rolls her eyes at me and I wait for her comments.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDyTv2G6fc
"Its got one of those freestanding baths and a walk in shower almost the size of my bedroom" she says.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4n3z5u623M
"Jay's bathroom not mine" I say smiling.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjAVeV74h3
"Yeah and he's really seriously into you Taylor and even that isn't cutting it" she begins and I can feel a lecture coming.
"He never ever told anybody about this place or himself, or anything Taylor. And all of a sudden you're living here together. Riding on the back of his bike which nobody has ever even dared to touch" she scoffs.
"May as well marry him" she says smiling.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsH6NVvl40
"Ohh shh and get ready" I sigh.
"I'm showering first" I stick my tongue out.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiO9U1it4N
I grab the body scrub from the box and head to the en-suite bathroom. She sits on the four poster bed looking out to the view, which is magical at night time. Enchanting even.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9tWIsk7r8
I scrub up and prep my skin for the new tan and after drying, I apply my tan feeling like a new women.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGR88R0QPM
I enter the bedroom glowing in my bathrobe. Rach jumps in the shower and I set to work on my hair. I dry and curl it into loose waves. Then I do my makeup giving myself Smokey eyes and red lips and a serious glow up to match my tan.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBotb8lMtLs
"Okay I need you to do my eyes" Rach smiles.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNLTsxA7WJ
"Sure" I say getting out my suspenders and hold ups. I'm wearing super high heels too.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnG0M6b4fX
My dress is slit up to my thigh, it's maxi in length but when I move everybody will see my hold ups, which is exactly the look I'm going for.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6M76vSrfP
I do Rach’s eyes and then get ready myself. I'm going braless because my dress is strapless and my whole back is on show. My dress is black, with a bandeau style neckline which scoops all the way down at the back to my mid waist. It's figure hugging and it travels all the way down to my feet. The extreme slit makes it though, and when I look at it in the mirror I have to admit it’s seriously hot.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwm967XGGL
Rach’s dress is white and short. It’s long sleeved and it skims over her curves. Her hair is straightened and she’s finished her look with nude heels.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NNhD2gS71
“You look great” I say.
“Here let me take a picture by the view” I add getting my phone out.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhVK16RCkK
She poses by the window and I take several.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZetIINPTD
“You seriously need your picture taken in that dress” she explains and I protest but give in.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiADeRbxdW
“Taylor smile you look incredible” she says.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIw8VY8PhEr
We check out our pictures and I’m pleased to see how good we both actually look.
“Okay you go down” I say
“Pour me a glass, Im right behind you” I say.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9I1dgoXUz5
“Taylor” she says as she’s leaving.
“He’s in love with you” she explains
“Don’t ever doubt that” she smiles and then disappears down our staircase. I briefly wonder how she’s going to stay upright in her heels.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iX8XQPAcr
I glance at my messages quickly, the ones from Matty. He’s messaged me a couple times.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ591BlvTsKq
‘Tay, I’m sorry for moving in on you I just, I’m in a place where we’re still together, where I’m in love with you. Like you left and my mind and heart stayed in the same space. I truly hope you are happy, in whichever decision you make. I will always be in love with you, please know that whatever I do you are at the centre of all of my decisions and what is best for you. I know that we were supposed to be together. I love you’
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9bhDci0EN
I close the message and swiftly place my phone in my purse. I believe him, I can feel how he feels about me. I can’t change his feelings, I can’t make it better and I can’t give him the resolve he needs.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLUNBOIehR
I sigh and get my phone back out. Seeing the two blue ticks I message him back.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxMCsMmYwe
‘Matty, I understand. I’ll talk to you about it later’ I reply keeping it brief.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpVrMQfPQL
I head downstairs in my gown after spritzing myself with perfume. Jay is in his best clothes, a clean pale blue shirt which he still manages to look insanely cool and rugged in. Rach is currently staring at him whilst being held by Nate. She isn’t totally over Jay I know that much.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpt38jQGInq
I head into the room casting my eyes over Jay, watching him look up and seeing an expression I didn’t anticipate. Awe, devotion and lust flitters over his face and he is speechless looking at me. When I reach him he takes me in his arms his hands brushing my back and he looks down at me in wonder.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpt2sc3GBaC
“Taylor” he whispers softly.
“You look…” he begins looking at me again.
“Out of this world” he smiles.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5yDcCOG9J
He lightly kisses me his lips travelling down my bare neck.
“How am I ever going to fend them off of you now” he chuckles.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7VYZd9x60
After staring at me for a few more seconds he tells the others that the cabs on its way. I face Rach watching her looking at Jays arms around me, the way his hand brushes my back lightly.
“Told you” she mouths silently and I wink at her. I dare not look at Nate.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rGSBkwZdt
“Who’s coming tonight” he says and I resolutely look up at Jay. He stares back into my eyes.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD0kpBubzk
“Everybody” Rach sighs and I briefly pull my eyes away from Jay.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p9xM5cBmS
“All of our lot; Ross and Matty” I say without any hesitation.
“Rhea and Malachi” I say.
“I texted her yesterday to be sure” I add. I’m excited to see her again, it’s been an age.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhG2JhSM26
“Justin, Stiffy, Brad” Nate adds and I look at him finally his eyes are watching me closely.
“Jen, Pippa, Ryan obviously” he says.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx26AUSBLY
“Oh what a lovely reunion” I add. Jen hates me with a passion.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbnTvLmH2o
“That reminds me my guitar” I say going to grab it. I walk to the storage cupboard and retrieve my acoustic and bring it back in.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlt3e2vTEf
“Who’s he anyways” I hear Rach say when I join them all again.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjRXvLUu7S
“Josh? He’s the captain of the team” Nate says bigging up this new guy they’re all discussing.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVU7PpbiXJ6
“You’ll spot him, big guy. Dark hair, tan. I think he’s the best rugby player we’ve had ever” he adds.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt7Lm05du1
“Sounds like your a fan” Rach quips.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWybKVJShre
“Josh is an alright guy actually I’ve spoken to him in the gym before. He’s pretty into his sport” Jay adds for perspective and I look at him.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE5yOgmhCl
“He’s a second year like me” he clarifies and he looks at me hesitantly.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLDCm9SJRD
“We’ve fought before not gonna lie” he laughs.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Wj5ixhlH9
“Won’t be happening again” he sighs.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1LpCDDNgu
“Cabs here” he says and I follow him out. Wondering about Josh and why he’s never been mentioned before. I wonder if they were friends? I question why they fought before?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdISTNYU016
Jay puts his arms around my waist in the cab and I stare ahead briefly seeing Nate watching me again. I look up at Jay and he kisses me and smiles.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dNtv5aHtZ
“I love you” he whispers
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j9NJSKpEL
“I love you” I sigh and rest my head in his chest.
