Taylor's POV
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS71NR27HI1
Joshua Morelli in his football jersey with his biceps bursting out of it has flashed me yet another grin, amongst all of the other girls in this room, of course. I've gleamed his surname from another girl who had been watching him every so often, he's clearly her crush. And he looks the epitome of the ideal boyfriend; tall, muscular, sporty and tanned. Yet when you talk to him the magic seems to just disappear. His Italian surname makes sense to me, and it fits with his slight accent and tanned skin.

He's still occupying Jay's time and I have been making sure I get my drink on whilst they are talking. I've also been dancing because Ryan always has a good playlist. Jay has been watching me intently, and even though I'm annoyed that he called me his girl, I have been missing his arms around me the whole time.

"Here Taylor" Rach says passing me a shot.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1Bh4rXThE
"What is it?" I ask as she sighs and necks hers.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0STybrLZ6
"It's just apple sours" Justin says to me in my ear. I nod to him and he takes a step away from me. I hadn’t been aware that he was there and I jump slightly, he has a habit of just appearing out of thin air.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4m3UbotiPN
"Justin" I say and it comes out far more slurred than I had hoped. His eyes soften looking at me.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLauSq56hCU
"Taylor" he replies.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6TngQgmfT
"Are you okay, are you having fun?" I ask him.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdlbeULh5Y
"Yeah I am, why do you ask" he smiles at me and I sigh before continuing to dance.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5jTCnaQXE
"You know seeing somebody that can actually dance, is quite something" he says watching my hips.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsrsATKViY
"You are looking wonderful tonight by the way" he comments. It's clear that Justin at least finds me attractive otherwise he wouldn't have spied on me in secret. I take a step back realising that Rachel has left me. Feeling a swarm of students behind me dancing I look back up at Justin warily.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o2vwceyBa
"When you were watching me" I ask him, my drunken mind telling me that now is the correct time to bring it up.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod9U8BzrbV
"What did you see" I ask vulnerably as he looks down at me with intent.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqVjYex5hC
"I saw somebody who is extremely beautiful and talented" he murmurs as I attempt to take another step back but get further pushed in his direction by the other dancers.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0Zk6TIeE4
"I think I'm going to just have one more." I murmur looking at my empty glass before stumbling off and heading to the drinks in the kitchen. Pulling my head together I asses the alcohol on the countertops and begin pouring some Prosecco. I smile looking down at the glass relishing in the silence of the kitchen.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqn7xVsJIp0
"Baby" I hear Jay whisper in my ear as I feel his arms go around my waist. He's standing behind me and my body pushes against him, yearning for his closeness.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BFvoMF6MC
"Hey" I say softly as he kisses my neck his hands explore my body briefly. Down the sides of my waist and up again.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqDy9BoQrf
"Mmm" I murmur softly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DtAh4HZwK
"He didn't do anything?" He whispers and I shake my head just knowing that he is alluding to Justin.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswZ5ZD7HGd
"I missed you, I was on route to you when Rachel left but you stumbled off in here" he whispers as I turn to face him and he kisses my lips softly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89Yr0hZX3I
"I missed you" I say after a long drawn out kiss. He lifts me up and places me on the kitchen island, in one swift movement he is inside of me and I pant looking down at the tops of my stockings as he thrusts into me.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWZfbqRCPn
"Mmm Jay" I sigh and he kisses me possessively thrusting into me.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIJFo4oDdB
"You're mine" he says and I smile, being with him erases a world of worry.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyH1tvh4pT
"Just your girl" I tease him as he chuckles softly pushing in and out of me.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBuEVn3ZMn
"Hey, I'm making it up to you right now" he smirks grabbing onto my hips whilst pushing his blonde hair back.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFZYM507Um
"No baby" I tell him but he shh's me and continues his delicious onslaught of kisses. I lose myself in him, forgetting my argument instantly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLF1JMKUCyN
"I need you" he sighs.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSefbPUa2B
"Mmm Jay I need you" I whisper and he loses control. It’s a shock nobody hears us but I figure the music is turned up and everybody is busy dancing.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNy3s7AMc2
Once he's zipped himself up and I'm adequately covered up again he looks down at me. Bottles strewn around the countertop as I slip down from it and stand in his arms.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaEqZcv6ob
"I like this dress a lot" he says his hands travelling up my thigh and over my hips. I decide looking into his eyes that he should pay for playing down our relationship to his mate. Instead of my usual devout attention to him I smile and go back to making drinks. He sighs watching my back, his hands rubbing my waist again.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yzgAMg5Un
"I love you" he says in my ear seriously as I pour him a brandy.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUVGz0brEl
"He's a dick. If I told him I loved you he would make it his absolute goal to take you. And as it is he keeps watching you" he sighs kissing my ear.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLp3yQ3zaZ
"Irrelevant" I tell him without turning around.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoylwdxfm6U
"I cannot be taken" I sigh placing the bottle down and facing him again. Handing him his brandy as he smiles and I give him one sweet kiss on his lips. I turn on my heel and head with the bottle of Prosecco over to the kitchen door.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgl8yUbHUl
"Wait" he says pursuing me again and taking my hand as I smile briefly facing the door.
"You're right" he whispers pulling me into him before guiding me out of the kitchen with his hand in my own. We pace down the hall, past the swirling staircase and into the living space where the partygoers are. I notice that the fire is roaring and the music has moved onto some slow r&b as I walk in locating the others. Jay keeps his hands around my waist as we walk over through the crowds of people. College girls glance in his direction and I stare them down as we progress through the dimly lit room.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrGmeBvCpm
Justin eyes me from the fireplace, he’s getting hit on by a girl and he doesn’t even realise. Her hand is on his chest as he stares blankly ahead. Once we reach our group of friends I look away as Nate makes out with Rachel on the pool table. Matthew eyes me as he speaks with Ross who is occasionally sipping brandy and smoking. Joshua Morelli tries to intercept their conversation eagerly. Jay hooks his arms securely around my waist and nuzzles my neck a little as I laugh and kiss him.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQF2pP3Zk6
“You know Nate you could just dance with her” Joshua laughs as Nate sticks his middle finger up at him without turning away from her.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWnf3DwA2C
“Jay can totally dance by the way" I nod to Josh trying to divert their attention away from Rachel and the private moment she is having.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nkUiG5JkZ
“He can?! I’ve never seen it. My man tends to just score and go home” Joshua laughs and I notice that his jersey is undone revealing his tan chest. Perhaps he got hot and didn’t want to lose the football jersey altogether in case people looked at him and didn’t know who he was. I smile as Jay whispers in my ear that he loves me.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTqzsqjxTv
“Jay can dance I’ve seen it!” Ross laughs intercepting our conversation as I smile.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmogvo7QwL
"Well when the love of your life is a dancer you pick up a few things" Jay smiles down at me and I watch him closely my heart bursting out of my chest as Joshua Morelli watches him keenly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSStfNIps6Q
"That's one hell of a statement man" Josh says taken aback sipping his brandy and shifting uncomfortably.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9EDsbsD5e
"Yeah well, when you meet somebody this special and you want to spend the rest of your life with them then you will say the same" Jay smiles at me as Matthew lounges back on the table and looks away.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjPSapxHah
Joshua Morelli remains quiet after his grande statement and I sip my drink smiling. Ross engages Matthew in a conversation about books as many girls stare at him wondering whether to make a pass at him or not. Jay kisses my neck, remaining physically close to me the entire time. Just like when we’re at home in our own private space and he’s all over me I get lost moving my hips as he stands behind me.
“I'm sorry" he whispers in my ear whilst seductively kissing me. His hands grasping onto my hips as I move. Joshua gets caught up in a conversation with a girl who has dark hair and caramel skin.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wcRsR9Mkc
“I need you entirely and I just dont want to lose you especially to a guy like him and I freaked and didn't know what to do" he whispers turning me to face him and glancing into my eyes.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4iIhssEkN
“Oh Jay you have gone soft" an annoying nasal female voice says behind us. I glance over his shoulder and see her face. Weirdly even though it hasn't been all that long she looks like she's aged and not like a fine wine. Small creases either side of her smile where her continuous frown has indented wrinkles already on her face. Standing next to Matthew she poses in her black leather dress and regards me with a look of annoyance. Of one thing I can be sure of is that should she try anything with Jay I will physically harm her. The darkness of her hair contrasts with her pale skin and I sigh turning around in his arms to face Jen. Her hair is cut into a pixie style and her face is covered in pressed power. Rachel eyes her derisively and gives me a look which tells me she has my back.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekY3vmfsMz
“Thinking that this one is the answer to your loneliness Taylor really is stupid" she incites as I watch Matthew look warily between the two of us.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8GfkpbUFW
“Of all the people to talk about loneliness" Jay scoffs holding me closely his hands wrap around my waist and her eyes flick down to the gesture momentarily.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxdwuryare
“And what Jay? you sure used up your fair share of women being lonely" she prods with a huge smile on her cherry red lips as she looks him square in his eyes.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZpSzTpk2E
“I haven’t forgotten all of those nights we shared baby” she sighs at him and I cringe inwardly feeling his aggravation.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ItDVZB7IH
“You fucking me all over your apartment” she says seductively as I watch her intently wondering what her game is.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICszpsJHox
“Lord he really is quite something isn’t he." she laughs looking up at me and I roll my eyes.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoZO7iMnko
“He’s mine” I say possessively and she cackles. Looking down at me like I’m a small child quibbling over a favourite toy. She glances at me with her dark eyes as Matthew looks up at me worried and Ross attempts to diffuse the situation.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcuOmaapxI
“He’s only for himself, Taylor” she begins sourly watching me with a face that tells me that she believes every single word she’s saying. She scoops her black hair back and smiles keenly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikBJ75BFPl
“I’m surprised considering…” she quips looking over at Matthew and smirking.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdxniTUOIM
“You’re smart Taylor, you should know better. He’s an absolute womaniser, he’ll plough right through you babe. As soon as something else comes along…or maybe you like that? The power of a man like Jay who takes what he can and then he’s cold and not returning your calls. Telling you you’re crazy for falling in love with him” she laughs looking over at Rachel quickly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTC2ohCILHk
“Who even invited you” Rachel laughs looking at her, they used to be best friends. Best friends actually however my feeling is that Jen ruled by fear and manipulation.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39LkqhKJoQ
“Enough. I'm done with you okay? we don't speak, we don't even need to. So why do you insist on provoking me when there is literally no reason for us to be breathing the same air" I say impulsively as she turns to face me again. Okay I did go there I think to myself as Jay rubs my arms. She glares at me and I stare her back down unflinching.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoQ8slWF3b
“Anything else?" I say angered as she pauses, deliberating and then looking over the room. Her eyes sweeping over Matthew first before she looks over at the rest of the college students. She always loved Matthew the most, he returns her stare with a look of derision and she sighs.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJEvG9IUZI
"Didn't think so" I mutter refocusing on Jay.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pzfA06f1S
"You know Taylor you actually have three exs in this room." she digs trying to keep our argument alive. Lord she must hate me. I count in my head, Matty and Ross that's two what does she even mean three I wonder watching her curiously.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnl3B9sTpP1
"Yes that's right." She smirks as my head tries to work out what she’s alluding to.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNxUOQnTww
"Tom isn't it" she smiles as Matthew looks up at me. Matthew had warned Tom away from me early on when we were first dating. I follow her eyes and see him. Tom. Certainly not I think to myself however as I take in his sandy hair and the cool boy look he gives off I know that it is him. He has shot up a few inches since we dated, wearing an unbuttoned shirt and pushing his slightly longer hair back as he catches my eye. His expression one of shock and surprise as he looks over me clutching onto Jay Gilbert Scott, in my Givenchy gown. To be fair I’m a far cry from the young mousy, quiet girl he used to know. His eyes watch me sweeping over my long hair and my makeup clad face.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWH5CsCnOc
"How many ex's have you got here Jen ?" I laugh turning to face her and suppressing my utter hatred for Tom. My first love who used me and cheated on me and who I had to slowly exorcise out of my life. The posters I ripped down from my bedroom wall when I would sit for days crying over him not calling or turning up. How he over stepped every boundary and expected me to accept his behaviour.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtocBjPQcy4
"Too many, the difference is I don't care about who you've been under" I remark as she saunters off pleased with herself without a glance back at me.
