Taylor's POV
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOERsyUIIFb
Just one more morning, I tell myself. Before my world returns back to normal and Jay is home.

I turn to face Matthew in bed, the sheets wrapped around his waist, his hair flowing all over his face. Smiling I dare to reach out and stroke his hair back. He grins as my hands stroke him, hands going over his shoulders and jaw.

"Don't tell Jay" he whispers hazily.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYuNfYxaWe
I sigh, I know exactly why he doesn't want me to tell him. It's not because of the inevitable fight, it's more to do with the fact that we will never have this again if Jay knows. It's game over.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbyxA8k5oK
"Don't" he says again more awake.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjg0wcw2Hr7
"I had this dream last night" he says moving closer.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWwliJXgKk
"You and the baby. We were looking after the baby together. And I need that" he says softly his eyes opening looking at me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73m9y8xN4j
He smirks and I watch him uncomprehending of his next move.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdLwgJ6JEm
"Don't tell him" he says softly, his hand stroking bump under the covers.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7FFdZSHIW
"I'll take the hit no problem, but losing this time we can continue to have together. I can't do it" he says.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkiCzQaUmT
I smile at him stroking his face and hair.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatvz5YQl3z
"Taylor, please I'm begging you just give us this one thing. Companionship" he says holding onto my hips.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YFTWOLJp3
"I won't even touch you anymore if you feel better about it, but please keep me here" he explains.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sogDMNerc
A few stray tears fall down my face and he wipes them away quickly.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfL5UTh7zA
"Deal?" He asks softly.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbkvpQEmKz
"Yes" I nod slowly. His eyes glisten and he pulls me in close.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUCZSSs6OY
"Thank you" he says eyes washing over me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTqRS5oqQF
We spend the morning at cherry tree, together. Not mentioning anything about our behaviour over the last few days. He finds every moment to touch me and hold me close and seizes all of the opportunities.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvvFtA0Hcd
Helping me into the 4x4, he closes the door behind me and climbs in the drivers side. Starts up, the music coming on which he instantly turns down. He puts the car in reverse and takes us down the long drive to the gates.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHNB6l0thM
His hand travels over the console and comes to rest on my thigh as I'm staring out the windshield.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Bp7yHeISu
"You've got to let me know if you don't want me to touch you anymore" he says and I squirm. Feeling like I'm losing myself over and over again.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxRcdeLxYX
"I know" I say simply and he strokes my thigh up to my bump. He rests his hand there and I sit back and close my eyes.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIiOY5Elhd
"When is Jay back" he asks me after a pause. I realise I haven't even checked my phone. I pull my purse out from under the dash and grab my phone. Unlocking it, reading his message which was sent an hour ago telling me that he is boarding.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Qsok83zT0
"Well actually" I begin slowly.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYsuMeTPz3
"He boarded about an hour ago which means he'll be back tomorrow by like 12" I say.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUi4m5DwB0
"Means we have another night ?" He asks me his finger rubbing bump.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PbODtQzcI
"Yeah, I didn't consider the flight time" I add lounging back.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1BjY20DdB
He smiles over at me, hands continuing to feel Henry's kicks from my tummy.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6DPsK83hS
He pulls into the hospital lot and finds a space, comes around to my side of the car and helps me out. Matthew holds my hand as we walk through the hospital. Dressed in black Levi's and a dark olive green t-shirt with his leather jacket slung on people look at him. Women eye him up but he holds onto me his hand in mine.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8DVvccDJf
I opted for a cream silk camisole today and a light denim skirt completed with wedge sandals. They make a dull clink on the hospital floor as I walk hand in hand with him.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN84o34SOeS
Ahead I see Olivia, she's hard to miss with her red hair. It's the kind of attribute that sticks out everywhere. Wearing proper scrubs today and crocs she's glances up at us. The pale blue hospital uniform contrasting awfully with her red hair.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegOixMsSIn
"We should probably stop holding hands now considering how close we are to the suite" I say and he looks down at me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sZwhSONBw
"Olivia is not going to say a darn thing" he smiles.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4rn4BW4ey
I smile up at him and he removes his hand from my own. Keeping my eye contact he places his arm around my lower back.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsXCOZOo2h
"You don't want Jay to know" I whisper.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZ7QJGFMuq
"Then you need to minimise who sees us" I say.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKVZGDESZD
"Olivia is nothing to us" he says smirking.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8ocRpy1SN
"You really think Olivia and Jay are ever gonna sit down and have a chat. Nope didn't think so" he laughs at my expression, his other hand pulls my lips to his and he kisses me quickly.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6YaTFgDpg
"There, she saw that" he whispers, I gasp.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyLivUbpmK
"Plus if he asked; we just say I was trying to make Olivia leave me alone. He may be mad but he'll understand" he laughs.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdLLY41Q1A
We approach Olivia together and he acts cool around her.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dyLNxMzXg
"Morning" she says curtly looking up at us briefly and then back down at her clipboard.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dC6NIjceC
"Hey Olivia" I saw sweetly.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGPC7xBrey
She meets my eyes with a look that is mixed with jealousy and disdain. It's unfortunate that all of the women that come into my life wind up hating me because of my relationships.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqHeXcw2lO
"I've been working all night, he's great. physio today" she says coldly looking at Matty, ignoring me entirely.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARzNeQoFWZ
"Thanks for the update" I say lightly disengaging myself from Matty, my emotions high. I wipe my eyes lightly; it's embarrassing that almost every negative situation renders me to tears.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOjBo8OC4R
She looks at me horrified and then looks down at her clipboard.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hZiZrFIIm
"Taylor, baby is everything okay" Matthew asks concerned. He turns his body to face me. I smile up at him weakly.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z3zK5OTmW
“Honestly it’s just the hormones” I say, why does everybody hate me? Negativity kicks back in again and I tell myself it’s because I’m selfish and I can’t leave him alone to just be happy with somebody else. Somebody like Olivia.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXB5jZgE90
"I'll give you a minute" I say leaving him and walking into the suite.
