Jays POV
51Please respect copyright.PENANAAt3NiaqEml
I'm definitely the bigger man in this situation, Ross has been eyeing up Taylor for what feels like days. And yes she's beautiful, of course she looks amazing in a bikini and what's more is she's currently baking a cake in front of us.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA2vHxd4Uzly
Her hips, her boobs and her lips moving as she's talking to me. I need to actually listen to her I remind myself. She smiles as I say sorry what ? Bowl under her arm, stirring the pot with a wooden spoon. Why is this turning me on so much, she's just baking a cake, in a bikini.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAHrGcIP4j7I
"What's your favourite cake Jay" she asks me.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAAPAHVgttGG
"I actually love sticky toffee cake" I say.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAqR3gNeL0hj
"Mmm that's a good one" she says and I want to make her say 'mmm' more.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA7gjCOCnfLr
"I love lemon drizzle" Ross says and I want to push him outside, with Rachel and Jacob.
51Please respect copyright.PENANArdegB0r820
"It's my favourite" she says and I curse myself for not saying that lemon drizzle was my favourite too.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAjpQ1WDhI0O
She greases the loaf tin and spoons the mixture in. She then turns to face the other direction and bends to put the cake in the oven. I glance at Ross and he averts his eyes from my fiancées perfect bum bending over in front of him.

I stand and head out to the BBQ and tend the meat. It couldn't be better news that they're both going to London for a while. I move the sausages, and flip the burgers. Rachel and Jacob are making out and I ignore them, the only good thing about that is that he's no longer got his eyes on Taylor.
51Please respect copyright.PENANANbG7nty8KY
"Rach you were supposed to help" Taylor says from the doorway.
She's baking something else now.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAKloFUQGLi2
"Okay I'm not pregnant like you I don't have the instinct" she snaps. I see Taylor's face fall and she walks off.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAt6lICy0xdl
Rachel is ignorant unaware of where she's gone wrong, it was completely tactless. Jacob doesn't even know yet and he looks stunned. This affects her working relationship with him. It's why she's so upset and on top of that she's hormonal.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA0H8KqZDSyk
"Man can you watch the bbq" I ask Jacob walking into the house not even waiting for an answer.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAUQAGUPP0Cl
Not finding her in the kitchen I head through the hall and into the living room. I scan the room not seeing any sight of her. I jog upstairs, hearing voices from our bedroom, I go in and she's there. Lying on our bed, Tears in her eyes. Ross eyes me sitting at the end of the bed; noticing that he's nowhere near her I relax. I'm in fight or flight mode, and Rach has just tipped me over the edge.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAxp8yMrHQXL
I bend down in front of her.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAGtLG1R7H0r
"It's not how you wanted to share the news" I say softly
51Please respect copyright.PENANACyzIh5QMUV
"And I don't want him to get rid of me in the company" she says. Matty comes in and I sigh.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAr29jELKVgn
"Yeah I'm pretty sure that there are laws in place to stop that" I say. She will not be pushed out of her job I will make sure of that.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAGPXufjwbAZ
"I feel really emotional, like I was so happy just baking and cooking and then that really set me off." She says still crying.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAngkLJIaftT
"I love you" she says as I hug her. I sit on the bed and pull her into my lap. She hugs me, clinging onto me.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAIZbMQDJj8l
"What if something happens now" she says and she is freaking out.
51Please respect copyright.PENANADQGFzbIc02
"Nothings going to happen" I say looking at her.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAUpDu76gmEZ
She sobs and I hug her.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA4eTbCbgzLg
"I cant see past it" she sobs more.
51Please respect copyright.PENANACpAfWqzdZU
I shh her and hold her into me.
"I can't lose another" she cries and I know now exactly what's set her off. She wasn't ready for everybody to know, just in case. Matty she trusts, and Ross. She was being brave telling Rachel. And now she feels like another person knowing is tempting fate.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAHtpQ9L7zGo
"You won't" I say and I kiss her head. I look up slightly, what can I do to make this better ?
51Please respect copyright.PENANA0nJKjTmZj5
"Tay" Matty says softly and he comes to sit the other side. I hate how he calls her that, how she listens to him. But I refrain from causing anymore problems.
51Please respect copyright.PENANASUxWeOh3jy
"It's okay" he says and she sits up slightly wiping her eyes.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAVNe1Me5DFY
"I can't go through it again" she sobs.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAteDJtjoWSA
"I know, I know" he says and he does know. I respect him for trying.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAlOgN2ak4Nz
"It's okay, think about it" he says softly.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAAA4rqPkKDa
"You're more than 6 weeks." He adds.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAOV37vwJaHO
"And you're going to be just fine" he says and she stops crying. Fully stops and looks at him.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAqsT8Oi51uU
"I'm double 6 weeks now" she says.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAhSP3AWhPks
"Three whole months" he smiles.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA09jZYipPNg
"Now relax, let's go get that cake done" he laughs.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAskHaRsMNwL
She wipes her face squeezes me and stands up. Matty stands next to me and I give him a nod. It's the man way of saying thank you.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA7lS1N6K1nu
"Sorry" she says to all of us.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAxHz62uy6CT
"For being so emotional" she adds and I hug her.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAN1oXBXVjBl
"Pretty sure you're entitled to be emotional Taylor" Ross says.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAndJodwR9lJ
We begin walking out and I have my arm around her back I just don't want to let her go. Walking down the stairs I hear Rachel fumbling along and I count in my head. I will not make a thing of this.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAGZKz25kKwF
“Taylor” she says, shrill.
51Please respect copyright.PENANANfeS6LthoO
“Where did you put the Prosecco” she asks.
51Please respect copyright.PENANARr7ThYyCa0
“It’s right over in the chiller” I say and if looks could kill she would be dead.
51Please respect copyright.PENANARNxvCmAbiI
“Are you okay” she says looking at Taylor alarmed. Shes infuriating.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAepurUiFwah
“Just emotional” Taylor responds.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA0y05lQuGl0
“Must be hormones” Taylor smiles and I stroke her back.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAcscoc0nSaC
Taylor sways past her, and her grace is unmatched. My girl is perfection.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA34dmtLGnVV
“Here” she says passing her the Prosecco.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA4anxgRSeCP
“Thanks bestie” Rachel says.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAmypjBU3zoH
“How the cake coming along” she asks at an attempt to reconcile.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAylhMXk0J0p
“Let’s check” Taylor smiles walking over to the oven. She pulls out the baking tray and sticks a skewer in it.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAtg46SV29sF
“Five more minutes” she says.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAsBAGCSCD1q
“Everybody want burgers ?” I ask.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAhF1yqovOX3
“Of course” Rachel chimes in first.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAW3WBfyse8U
“I made a salad too” Taylor smiles uncovering a glass bowl.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAH5vVPNK6ox
“Olives too and other bits” she says.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAZZg9gtVlg5
“Perfect” I say and I’m holding onto her still. Something about her emotional episode reminded me strongly of my childhood, my mum crying. The pain, and the emotional nights we all had. I feel the need to be close to her. So close. To hold her and make sure that’s she’s okay.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ju0fCDCA9
She looks up into my eyes, everybody has busied themselves.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAw9woq6Er8w
“I’m okay” she whispers.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAzfGqsg6GiS
“Are you sure, I can get rid of everybody” I say.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAl2LkNozEHf
“Of course not” she smiles warmly.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAg6rcqPsIjZ
“I love you so much” I whisper.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAaBxw9JEHyA
“I love you. Now you will be eating my lemon drizzle cake, mr I like sticky toffee” she teases.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA6o6huTW45I
I laugh and she kisses me.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAkrhze884qp
“I’ll happily eat your lemon drizzle for the rest of my life” I tell her.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAWmAgqvfi99
She kisses me again, and I hold onto her. Just making sure that she is okay.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAkAqbW4PDgW
“Go on, the burgers will burn” she smiles and I kiss her once more.
