Matty's POV
30Please respect copyright.PENANAz8x1dk4Lab
"Really you're going to upset my pregnant best friend" I say annoyed with her. And her stupid red hair and piercing green eyes. She looks at me defiance in her body language. Winged eyeliner that's far too much for her dainty face.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAc93welQDFH
"I didn't do a thing." she snaps exasperated with me.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAdTKCBMcepn
"Unbelievable" I say frustrated, I push my hair back and walk away from her. Back to Taylor. Back to the woman that needs my attention.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAE0MjJ22viZ
"You know" she calls out and I ignore her.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAUNN53xcAEu
"Im not interested." I say huffing and walking away as she pursues me. I'm hoping she doesn't push me further, I'm already wound up with Jay returning.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAKJgx6ucK6i
"You are, or you wouldn't make such a meal out of being around her when I'm present" she says, and I feel my jaw clench just ever so slightly.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA31reBD3Ogb
I turn on her, anger rising, I can practically feel my blood heating up. I face her and she looks shocked. My hands curled into fists, it's frustration. I would never harm a woman.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAsI58ofWc2R
"You think that's making a meal out of it!" I say sourly.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAeAJucPOdq1
"I slept with her all night long" I say, uncaring about what she might think. So what if she thinks I'm having sex with her. Her expression turns from shock to utter horror.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAIrIW7W5qfn
"I slept with her because I can and it has nothing to do with you, you just work here. You don't even know me so give me a break" I add before turning on my heel. Not wishing to witness her smirk at my childish reaction.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAuH5bK8NAO4
"You're a fool" she whispers and I know she's upset.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAltbdpa33PQ
Walking towards the suite, the stench of disinfectant and hospital food invading my nose. I push the door open, my eyes search for Taylor first.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAHZd7mfVJkU
Locating her brunette hair and slender frame, I relax perceptibly. Breathe in and out again. Ross is asleep and with her back to me she strokes his face. I long for her hands to be on me. Whilst he's out of it, I approach her from behind and wrap my arms around her. She relaxes her head back and sighs.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAuddGX01Bis
"How did it go" she whispers. She means Olivia, and I need Taylor to get it into her head that Olivia is just a nurse, an employee. Not a potential girlfriend.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAkHGWnu6Tcs
"Not well, I'm sorry she made you upset" I say softly.
30Please respect copyright.PENANALbBI9vDlCS
"It's just that they always hate me" she says in a small voice.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAGTF6x6RwV4
"Jealousy" I reply softly.
30Please respect copyright.PENANACWY2aDHeuk
"Jealous or not I'm always the problem right" she says.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAS5fvHjZdnY
"You're not a problem" I say defiantly.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA96NA0mazS7
She sighs and takes a seat. I head on over to the flatscreen and turn it on low, cursing Olivia under my breath for ruining my morning. Some stupid gardening programme comes on and I channel flick until I get to the movies.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA3aX8sL0I1P
Having located something to watch I take a seat next to her. It's most probably the fanciest hospital suite I've ever seen, I knew Ross' mum was well off but I didn't quite consider private suites at hospitals with flatscreens and sofas. That's altogether more of a Jay thing.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAm4mgLAVZrs
When I consider my own social standing, really I don't fit in with my friends. Taylor and I are similar, having upbringings that didn't consist of private jets or flying choppers. Having multiple cars and in Jays case multiple boats and houses too.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA6ySxqVZ2mI
Myself and Kim, my sister, were lucky to go away on holiday here in the states. Let alone fly abroad. I glance at Taylor, and she's watching me not the movie.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4MO3k4VYK
"What are you thinking" she says genuinely interested.
30Please respect copyright.PENANARzuX30YGmB
"I'm just thinking this is a fancy hospital room isn't it" I laugh. Keep it light Matthew, let's not make Taylor cry again.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAGP6s3qlnET
"It's pretty fancy" she laughs back.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAYe3ClGQZWV
"I never even went on holiday as a kid, like hotels were a big deal for me" I laugh.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAalUoNxHPch
"My mum used to take us to the beach and stuff but we never stayed" I say softly.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA2gtxNM25dB
"Me too" she reflects.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAbnVmDgddoG
We sit quietly for a few seconds and she lightly brushes my arm with her fingertips.
30Please respect copyright.PENANABeRwNXMN6q
"I want to make something of my life" I say before I can stop myself. Whatever happened to not being too deep?
30Please respect copyright.PENANAgz7KE3A4CH
"Yeah" she says looking up at me through her lashes.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAGvNfVjk5Am
"Yeah" I reply.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAvUHOftsvkh
"My dad left. And I want to be there. You know? Like a nice little job, weekends away. That kind of thing" I say dreaming up cottages and lord knows what else with Taylor.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAmJIpqnbdyE
"What would be your job" she asks playing along with me.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAEPKvKMIuFh
"Me? I would be like working in a little art shop that sells artist stuff one that also has events and stuff. Or I dunno general labour, I can lift stuff, mend stuff, fix stuff" I laugh.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAg3Iye51Huo
She chuckles and rests her head back.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAJk7wgpB5YC
"What would your house be like" she asks gazing over at me.
30Please respect copyright.PENANABVLfs4UJj9
"Cottage. Rural near a forest" I smile. My idea of heaven.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA09iszKLlol
"Little white picket fence and all, two kids running around the yard." I say getting carried away and she smiles.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAcFTjZtw4M0
"You know, you're in all of my little dreams. I can't help it. When I think of them and the future, you appear" I say and she blushes.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA9nupsG1yto
"Two kids, house and one on the way" I smile brushing her hair back as the door opens. Rachel enters clearing her throat and I raise my hands in a gesture which says I'm not doing shit.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA2rQk8W0yJ3
"How are we all this morning" Rachel says and Taylor looks over at her smiling.
30Please respect copyright.PENANA1QxBuS661Q
"Great Ross has physio today" Taylor says sitting up.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAEleh8MOtRe
"Ohh it looks like he's really ready for that" she laughs watching him sleep. Taylor laughs and I commit the sound to memory.
30Please respect copyright.PENANARUQ6WOkgH5
"Tay wanna go grab some food" Rachel says giving me the eye. The girl hates me, what can I say? I played her around for long enough. Women forgive but they do not forget.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAHLCyxhwx7c
"Course, what would you like Matty" Taylor asks me smiling.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAK9E9jiVOwj
"No don't worry about me" I say to her and she giggles.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAQiwZmQkN5B
"Bacon sandwich?" She says looking at me.
30Please respect copyright.PENANAvI5rkNzlna
"Bacon sandwich it is then" I smile back wanting to kiss her before she leaves, but not being able too.
