Taylor’s POV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6XnfIFR4J
“Taylor" Ross says stroking my hand, I’ve pulled his jacket over me as we walk through the suburban street past the other houses.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4fAIp0KwL
"Cars just ahead" he smiles looking down at me still crying and I begin to wonder where Jay may be.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnAtIR86lH
"It's fine it's just Matty being a dick and well you know" he sighs.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZz6J6iGE3
"What did they say while I was upstairs" I ask him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bA4qHvt9s
"They argued about the kiss. Matty insists that he loves you, that he can love you more than Jay all that kinda crap" Ross says.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW3PHTO9DX
He laughs slightly and looks down at me searchingly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpmWGkKUmK
"You know I love you the most right" he smiles as I laugh and he strokes my hand.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84WbRwgMX9
"I'm always the guy that's here" he says smiling down at me.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbe3LExqy1
"Thank you Ross I don't know where I would be without you" I say and I glance up at him seeing the want and need in his eyes.
I look away quickly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocAO0lx2kF
"Here we are" he says looking at an empty car, no lights on. It’s locked and I huff slightly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AhAs0o1Dg
"Let me just call him" I say worried as I pull my phone out of my purse and hear the dial tone. Realising I kept the car keys in my purse I clap my hands and hand them to Ross who opens up the car. I swoop into the drivers side and wait for the call to connect. Two more rings and still no answer.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4jFowg9IS
The call disconnects and I curse him. Out loud with all of my swear words and Ross scoffs at me. I redial his number.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkislqT21c
Thankfully the call connects this time after four rings and he waits for me to speak.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34E3dXukSb
"Jay" I say almost exasperated.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW3qo3jlCT
"It's me I'm at the car where are you" I keep it basic. I want to know what is going on.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazwLBkYK0l
"I just needed to clear my head. I'm sorry" he replies. He sounds emotional and I yearn to hold him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKoz5XZ4yp
"I'm so sorry I left you there. I needed out before I did anything" he says reasoning with me.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB4m8I5R7M
"I'll be there in five" he adds and then hangs up abruptly as I sit back in the seat and sigh.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaAK1ExMDF
"Five mins" I say to Ross ready for this all to be over. Wanting my bed, still slightly annoyed at Rach but more than that myself and how I let it go too far.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzPFXviKP5
Ross and I sit comfortably in silence for a minute or two and I close my eyes hearing the rain patter on the windscreen.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXrjp2JjqV
"I'll always be there for you. Always" Ross whispers.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDVLJW7GRU
"I know and I'll always be grateful" I say eyes still closed. I hear a tap on the window and jump out of my skin, greeted by the image of Jay before I unlock the doors.
Jay in the rain hair pushed back and top still off is a picture. He looks undeniably wonderful yet my mind wants to wrap him up in a soft fluffy towel to prevent him for getting a cold. He climbs in the back.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXDeoyMpic
"We're giving Ross a lift" I say short with him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLgPihGxGq
"Thanks Ross" he comments.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRnojCe4Tt
"For looking after my fiancée for me" he says putting his belt on and shooting eyes at me.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtROI4yGKh
"No probs man" Ross says looking around as I pill my belt on and huff.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRyGYFxPEo
"You good?" He adds eyeing me. Ross is worried about me driving annoyed, however I nod to him starting the car and pulling out into the night. I'm sober. I turn the radio up and head to Ross', I know my way from Matthew’s to anywhere.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJKF2yu7H3
“You all good Jay?” Ross asks easing us into conversation like a therapist.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9JYiHoryu
"Yes thanks man." Jay says quietly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBOzuJunHe
"Taylor" he begins ignoring Ross and his attempts at conversation. The problem is my anger and frustration is high, not just at him running off but at myself. At my idiocy. At the conflicted emotions running through me and my hormones intensifying the lot.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhN0EMlvop
"Not now" I say instead turning the radio up again, intending on ignoring him. My emotions have switched from worry to anger. How dare he leave me? He’s my fiancée and I’m holding his future.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMIVPlSKXi
"Ross are you gonna be okay" I say asking him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz5RGIAika
"Yep didn't wanna stay anyways with just Rachel there" he laughs almost awkwardly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuFxrvNbR1
"Sorry man, it's just Matty. He makes me so angry" Jay adds and I try to hold my tongue.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rjHz59qu5
"Maybe you should learn to use some self control" I say before I can shut myself up.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qoeb0ZwkI
"I'm sorry I don't like seeing him with his hands all over you, it somewhat ruins my self control" Jay retaliates calmly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRSoUnWygb
"Doesn't mean you have to slam him against a wall" I say and we're arguing in front of Ross, music blaring as I enter the highway.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMWEO6cgjK
"He said he loves you Taylor" he says and I swallow instead turning the music up so I can't hear him. Some silly 90s rock group are playing and I focus on it.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN06gcAFtEF
"You know that I'm yours though so who cares what he says" I say giving in.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVJtFcHLxz
"I know I know" he sighs.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpY8cFfzBd
"Do you see me pushing Rach against a wall because she kissed you- you two have history" I say because I can't help myself.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMP1gBAjHH
"I mean fuck Jay" I exclaim, man I am angry at him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8SuXqqOSS
"I literally have your everything. I'm carrying your" I stop short remembering Ross sitting next to me.
I clear my throat and focus on the road. Willing myself not to look in the mirror at him sitting in the back of his own car because I'm so angry with him. Ross gazes out of the window suppressing his shock and amazement.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6prU8xPec
"Ross is it the next left" I say after a while.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNMTckIQx0
"That the one" he smiles at me. Nothing stops him, he's always just my Ross. Dependable, not phased.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOAJ5VRbxm
"Here" I say pulling over.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjhDg51Ijz
"And thank-you again" I add slightly formally. He knows, he knows for sure and I just spilt the beans.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxVAoNXduI
"No problem anytime" he says.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cTXaso9Q1
"Oh and congratulations guys" he chuckles slightly rubbing his chin and watching me and Jay.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CdLbBtOgD
I hide my grin and Jay gets out of the back. He walks around and hugs Ross. It takes me a few minutes to realise that Jay is crying, happy tears. I wipe my eyes and Ross eyes me.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWFpGVT10i
"Thanks man" Jay smiles and it's the first time I’ve seen them hug.
The rain pounds down and soaks through my dress but I no longer care.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTTPld8Uct
"You're gonna be a dad, man" Ross says unbelieving clapping his back. Jay wells up and I can't contain myself.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAcNaLd2oL
"Taylor" Ross says turning to me.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4NNb3WLKY
"I'm so happy for you" he says, no hint of jealousy.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D1xKpXcHj
"Thank you that means a lot, just please keep it to yourself it's early stages" I say smiling as he engulfs me in a hug.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDP9BfCQiEx
"Of course, you look so well. Not that you don't always but you're literally glowing and I thought nothing of it until now" he laughs.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQRvuB8Jm5
We all look at each other and laugh standing out in the rain.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNZnlSOW4b
"Okay I'll let you both go" he says walking towards his door.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqlphKRk3L
Once myself and Jay get back in the car I brace myself for the ride home.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaBgazVn1g
"I can drive, I'm sober I had one Taylor" he smiles at me. He places his arms around me and I don’t fight him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60Jmn7Sqx8
"Let's get you home" he smiles.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLZJMnQV7u
“No more running out on me” I whisper looking up at him insecurely.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5jfxRk4IH
“Never I’m so sorry I just didn’t wanna hit him” he says slowly.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnLqfeD8Pr
I head over to the passenger door climb in and sink into my normal heated seat. He starts the car and I consider going to sleep on the way home.
