Taylor's POV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqgy9hM25c
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoq2v2JKC4
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeVdiuCTUK
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV4cBHx9IT
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLKNbCk7wh
"That's nice" I laugh as he gets drawn in by it, almost rolling my eyes as he picks up the tongs.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IN3KCAUoc
"Jay" I giggle as he inspects it.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3UuUHfIlk
"I didn't realise you were so into bbq's" I giggle as he looks up at me incredulously.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwyGszWeRf
"We can use it for your birthday party" he justifies and I smile.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU2emkVkSG
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mnBsHdUOq
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw64tAo8MGF
"Only midday. Let's grab the last of your things?" He suggests as I hug him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllARk8ZUPy
"I'm totally fine to do all the lifting" he says glancing at my tummy.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEodZ6jXhS
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNF68z6EKi
"You know this car is great" he says softly one forearm rested on the door frame as he drives through the sunshine.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxsB3HPgtQ
"It's nice" I say simply as he grins.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoPekhtoDT
"Oh more of an Audi girl are we?" He giggles.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNKosSJdkY
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOTIRTzAT1
"I like the Audi it's comfy" I defend and he rubs my thigh.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7SCevYhTO
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixfPxggNbW
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx5nQqjaTt
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBposSNe0fb
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sMcN7bj6e
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiZSFVeLxj
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwLW8RZpJe
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLFzFYfOZ1
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9vNU767qr
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v43HYZmpf
"Thanks" I laugh slightly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuvruBMQ34
"Want some help ?" He asks still half asleep, rubbing his eyes.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvOSbNYxMH
"No you're all good go back to sleep" I whisper as he watches me confused.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqh3N0j5yu
"Are you having a dinner party or something" Ross laughs standing up from the set of sofas in just his boxers.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoVDpTy83A
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXhTa3y0Px
Jay has been busy I realise looking over at the boxes before turning to the porch.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L8zeXy3iN
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSvsBVode6
"Tay you're moving again?" Ross smiles inquiringly as I pull off my hoody and stand in the direct sun soaking up the rays.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1V5SjYytB
"This was only temporary really" I say making light of the situation as I pull my cami dress straps up.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Z0hpbJLLk
"Taylor remember when you told me about moving into dorms" Jay smiles hugging me around the waist.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zlTkjBa8m
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0ED22FdNt
"We went to the office together, she was all like can I have a quiet room!" He jokes and I laugh.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn2oOgYSjW
"And look what I got, party central" I laugh out loud and he shakes his head hugging me
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95jwr7kDfg
"We will have classy parties at our place. Like dinner parties and pool parties" he sighs as I giggle.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm4jp40kmX
"BBQ pool parties" I suggest as he grins and kisses me.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbb2h36nmDq
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiFeeuyjFt
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIh8fRbgr6
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBX2lTO21m
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2EPc6sGAe
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy1uVkJkEh
"You're staying at the lake house" he says eyeing me knowingly before he swishes his hair back approaching me slowly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKXrSq3ILX
"Yes" I nod slowly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5fQlvwwPx
"I guess I understand why he's not making it public knowledge" he whispers watching me.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KlhhZOZo4
"Jay and I just want our own space. Our own time away from everybody" I explain softly as he scoffs.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoD42ize4D
"Does your mom know?" He asks rather intrusively.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6rCex89gt
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9dBLmVkNn
"Heavy?" I giggle as he rubs his biceps.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q9Mjkoako
"Just a touch" he laughs slightly eyeing me before Jay appears at the door.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuqSr4UpLK
"Ready?" He says softly ignoring Matthew entirely still.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrYhbvKtbL
"Ready" I smile back at him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP78l5Xx6W
"Bye cold shower" I laugh walking past the small ensuite.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pJOR0O5nd
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEckY6Exn27
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkNBpKIYRt
"Maybe not to get so drunk" I laugh as Jay nods.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45OxT5UW5N
"Oh let's see this tattoo?" Jay asks smiling as Matthew lights up offering Ross and Jay one. Jay refuses as Ross sparks up.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEZGeubnsA
Ross lifts his shorts to show us as I smile and Jay commends the design.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54zx15GBEX
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDEoMXGgGE
"Tay that suits you" Matthew says and I thank him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95R7L3e832
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL5KvUN1nq
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ijFySynQS
"It's making me think I now want another one" Jay laughs.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQVnjCsSqZ
"What would you get?" I ask him looking up at him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDREqHElK5u
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjLSSBCws7
"Tay what's the noise about neighbour" he smirks ruffling his hair back.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pz0Brym5H
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXq1tsFDSw
"Ah that's ashame" he sighs as I smirk, watching Rachel's facial expressions turn from realisation to utter shock.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw7UDxqPKz
"You're moving in together" Rach exclaims completely abashed.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FaMBiMBQY
"Yeah" Jay sighs humorously.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqY4wJXhSq4
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOOqDLEmnc
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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNDbwvVIn9
"What's going on" Justin says eyeing the truck as we all chuckle at him. He looks at us nonchalantly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOZuH6UxHC
"I'm moving" I say smiling as he watches my mouth and then takes in my white strappy dress.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ3h3ts1rp
"Ah okay" Justin sighs rolling up and joining the others in a morning smoke. So now we're a smoking circle.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmkIOrzj8i
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhTwitZcsz
"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.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTp30NqdYOm
"Yeah you're welcome" I retort sourly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqxD0SWGGV
"We'll still be partying here anyways" I smile.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMsarqEqdB
"Good to hear it" Justin smiles at me and I look away quickly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJFM5H4d3Z
"We'll see you guys tomorrow" I say to them. Jay releases me and gets the keys out of his jeans.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCREb6SElU
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.
