Taylor's POV
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhqy2bazcp
"Taylor" Matthew is whispering in my ear. I can feel his warm skin underneath me and I cling onto him.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtSwJwrFIZ
"Matty" I say confused. Why am I in bed with him? It's a dream. Where is my Jay?
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDstxLbQvV
"Taylor" he says and I squint opening my eyes to the view of cherry tree, looking through the drapes somebody pulled around the bed. A hand strokes my hair and I smile. Closing my eyes again, I rest in the arms that are holding me.

"Mmm" I say softly, it's a dream. It has to be. I reach my hands down his chest just hovering on his lower abs. Circling my hands over the top of his boxers as he breathes in sharply.

"No naughty" he says softly.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyorNor814
"How am I ever going to keep my promises if you do that when we wake up" he sighs.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffWHKlJbRS
"Matthew" I say, more sure that this is real. I stare up at his green eyes and chestnut curls remembering where I am and finally waking up.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoJHrx6akr
"Morning" he says and I sigh looking at him.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYLHluP2XV
"Sorry” I clear my throat
“Did you sleep okay" I ask him softly pulling my nightshirt down and covering myself up. My cheeks reddening and my skin feeling hot.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEi9MXUJKr
"I slept amazing. How was your sleep" he says and I lay on my side facing him, trying not to glance at his chest. The bulge in his boxers, the man I used to make love to all night long before Jay. Turns out there’s a reason you don’t climb into bed with your ex, past memories and exorcising feelings.

I place my hands on bump and wait for any little kicks.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCFhgo2cPF
"Talk again he loves your voice" I say looking up at him.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7NVttqgjT
Matthew shuffles down the bed so that he is in line with my waist. I sigh, almost rolling my eyes. How does he expect me to keep my promises?
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqSfZrFAaa
"Good morning" he smiles and his hands go over my bump under my nightshirt. Baby kicks excitedly and I smile. He looks up at me through his thick brown lashes and I can't help but smile.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGLQApZUyE
He scoots back up so that he's facing me and I smirk at him.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwdt6zbjJ3
"We have plans today" I tell him, and his evergreen eyes watch me.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEkpGZOlgh
"Oh really" he smiles and it's the first time in a long time I've seen his eyes glow.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKJEnipIYh
"The hospital, we're getting somebodies number" I smirk and he bites his lip.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qME7hfqH6
"No God no." He laughs assessing me and stroking my arm.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpLo9lO8F8
“Yes, strike while the irons hot” I giggle and he tickles me.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbdkczNGah
“Why not” I scoff laughing.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IsFkHuoYg
“Because I don’t want her” he laughs back.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmVIwIAtJH
He tickles me again and I chuckle tickling him right back.
“I’m gonna make it happen for you” I laugh.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hMejeQLq2
“Get you the girl” I sigh and he tickles me further.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFZK9oJ7nA
“No” he laughs his lips not far from mine. He briefly and softly plants a kiss on my lips. It just happens, I don’t think he necessarily planned it. It’s more of a casual peck, but he lingers after.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhDR99Ry2Q
“I’m sorry” he says pulling away again and I just stare at him.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVktueNorwI
“It’s okay” I whisper, stoking his face.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnHKqAedHS
“We have been together and it’s not fair of me to ask you to sleep here” I say quietly watching him.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhOA714pbj
“And that’s on me” I say.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIWboucboc
“Not you” I add smiling.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76edV3ofZj
He holds me in close, and kisses my forehead and my hair. I yield to him and the feel of his arms around me.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NgnZuBR5n
“Let’s definitely not tell Jay” he sighs, running his hands through his hair. Like he can’t erase certain thoughts going through his brain. I stare up at him, Jay is important to him as a friend.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2UVnnKdRc
“Taylor he was pretty on me about not getting into bed with you. And I have a feeling he would absolutely belt me for it” he laughs.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovY6hoPC1f
I reassure him stroking his arm. This is not sneaking around; this is just two friends who need better physical boundaries I tell myself. Two friends who were lovers, who now have been left alone in a four poster bed.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyvHDZ3LmI
“If you would rather sleep alone tonight I get it” I say looking up at him. He’s evaluating what the right answer is here.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODDZt4tNEN
“Not a chance I want to hug you all night long” he says softly.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0k6RCseLR
“Now let’s feed you” he says putting his hands on my bump again. I smile and he stands up fully in his boxers.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGh7UQwbx1
“I’ll cook” I protest standing up next to him.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIdVPGMidA
“I insist” I smile and guide him into the bathroom. I make sure he knows how to work the shower, because I’m a fabulous host. I back away from him as the shower runs awaiting somebody to stand under it.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYZColXrC0
“It’s quite a view” he smirks standing arms crossed over his chest. I look at the lines of his back, his muscular shoulders. Pulling my eyes back to the view out into the gardens as he turns to face me.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaIKC0axWK
“It’s lovely” I say softly.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFc7eO44a8
“I know of better views” he says smiling.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2xsojEeBM
“Oh really” I laugh and now it’s his turn to look me over.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPS0rMMGlP
“Mhmm” he smiles. And the air has become charged again.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb6Hzyeija
“You’ll just have to imagine that view, whilst you’re washing” I wink at him, turn on my heels and pace out of the en-suite.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvkqeAR3dy
It was cheeky, and I’m sure that he actually blushed. Cheeks flushing bright red just before I looked away practically marching myself out of the steamy bathroom.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCXFyvAqP1
I pull my nightshirt off, letting it fall to the floor and grabbing the body butter from the dresser, determined not to have stretch marks I rub it into bump inhaling its coconut scent. I scrubbed last night in the shower and my skin is exfoliated, I decide to put on my body oil. I push my hair back so that it is cascading down to my hips.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wmJ9uxnND
Looking up from the birds flying past the windows my eyes connect with Matty’s, frozen in the doorway.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3iRq9bquk
“I’m sorry Taylor I actually didn’t mean too I wanted to grab clean boxers” he says awestruck.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQzcO0Iuib
“You’ve seen it all before” I laugh nervously. He keeps his eyes trained on my face. His gaze dropping to my breasts when he gets distracted.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiVnybHnqG
“Boxers Matty” I say as he stands there in shock.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexMizrLIxe
“Right yeah” he stumbles over himself.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrGQoobYbG
I chuckle one hand covering my private area. The other over my nipples. He fumbles through his bag and grabs some Calvin Kleins.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN88tQAR5j
“Ok” he says sighing.
41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZww5nUiZl
“Got em” he smirks pushing his hair back and heading into the en-suite like a gentlemen.
