Matty's POV

🎧Honest - the neighbourhood

Glancing out at the city below, I think briefly about my next steps and my plan. Solidifying it in my brain. Private suites are fancy and the views you get are top class. It's not appropriate or kind to be hitting on her without the intention of actually liking her. But when needs must, and this particular need is very important to me indeed. Taylor is the biggest battle I will ever fight for, and should I destroy a few people in the meantime, so long as I win that's all that counts.

I lounge back on the sofa, Rachel has gone off to find Craig or Chris whatever his name is, her long boots clinking as she left. Pulling her fluffy jacket over herself as she left. Ross is asleep, and I turn the flatscreen over to a movie. It's much later now, and I should be thinking about leaving. But I must put things into motion before I go.

I pull my phone out and finally read Taylor's message. She replied an hour or so ago but I wanted to give her my full attention. She has described Italy, and it makes me smile. Shes spoken about Henry and I miss touching bump. She's told me that she misses me and she's matched the amount of kisses that I sent her.

I begin typing my reply only to be interrupted by Olivia. I scoff slightly sitting up, I had been laying down contemplating crashing out here. She wordlessly goes over to the machine and I watch her work for a minute.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQRCHBfqqr
I lay back again, my arms behind my head. A grin on my face. I could have this woman tonight should I so desire. Perhaps I'm getting cocky and running away with myself. She wouldn't mean a damn thing to me. But I could.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHR1xEdXIU
"Olivia" I say and she looks over at me almost jumping slightly.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeMOncE52f
"Why don't you sit down a minute" I suggest and she scoffs at me. I need to be more commanding. I need to demand.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtv3eDMjRs9
"I mean it sit down" I say and she just watches me; half appalled, half turned on.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmdcrNBEgQ
I turn the movie up just ever so slightly as she walks over to the sofas. She takes a seat next to me, she’s uptight. But to be fair I’ve been really shitty, haven’t I ?
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gqmTOt1dk
“This movie” I begin softly and I look over at her. She looks at me half smiling, half wary.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlchbtJwheX
“Tom cruise is like running about the place all the time and it’s all just action. Boring as fuck” I say laughing slightly watching the movie again.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAYIv59Xa0
She laughs and relaxes slightly.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aU7KLKLoF
“You have an accent” she says after a pause.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMgEIyDdCG
“I spent a lot of the time in the UK, when I was younger” I explain looking at her briefly.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtwIwQPAaL
“I like it” she says softly and this is too easy for me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASx8tDdDSu
“Is that all you like” I say looking at her and unleashing my eyes on her. Lounging back, Rachel won’t be back and I know that Ross is out of it. I push my curls away from my face and she just watches me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyiPcRHjeH
“No” she says simply, slightly uncomfortably.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDyMbaUOhe
“I like that you can draw” she says and it takes me by surprise.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSIZKrSWej
I grab my phone from the side and lay back again. Unlocking it I head on over to my gallery and pull up some of the stuff I’ve drawn. Best to avoid Taylor for now, I decide. I’ve drawn her a whole lot though, sometimes I would start not even intending on drawing her but end up sketching her without realising.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXSJ5MZIU2
“This is” I say finding a drawing I did of a landscape.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieLntf5LQ4
“Something I drew a little while ago now” I explain handing her my phone. She grasps my phone in shock and I wait for the inevitable; oh my you’re such a good artist comments.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE34d36nl0b
“It’s incredible, the detail you’ve given to the water” she says and I smile watching her. Now it’s easy, I just need to touch her. Shes distracted enough. I place one hand casually behind my head and the other one on the top of her leg. This is odd for me, because I feel nothing.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMM8tsUV4L
She looks over at me unsure of what to do. She doesn’t melt like Taylor does, she doesn’t look at me with eyes full of desire. She assesses me, because I’m changing tact and she is unsure. Which is fair.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4j9Sj14iQ
“You know” I say, she’s scrolled through and is now glancing at the picture I took of my drawing of Taylor. Yes, Taylor is absolutely stunning in it.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrSjGeUyfX
“If you want me to draw you like that you just have to ask” I say looking away. She passes me my phone back, and I refuse to take it.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DChbLfAZb
“Put your number in it” I command her.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCk3ZnhN1b3
She smirks.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfk5kP1Wdl
“So that you can draw me?” She asks laughing. I will not be drawing you Olivia, I think to myself. I smile at her and she inputs her number into my phone.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiuVu9GvBX
“Exclusive little contact list you have here” she says noticing the lack of contacts I have. It’s a green flag for any girl.
I laugh and stroke her leg once, her breathing changes.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMmQhsggG0
“Here, Tom goes again” I say looking at the movie again and she laughs at the action sequence which is now playing out before us. She places my phone down on the sofa next to her, sitting back and waiting for my next move.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLPLKwr3MT
“Are you through with her” she whispers softly and it takes me by surprise.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUch1crqQg
“Through with who” I ask turning my body to her. My hand just encroaching on her inner thigh. I look down at her crocs and stop myself from laughing.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHJfYrh3HC
“You know who” she replies.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunPKJjjxKZ
“Taylor” I ask.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN35JQE2Bw
“Yes” she asks.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGys72qCYh
“Of course, why do you think I asked you to put your number in my very limited contacts list” I say looking up at her through my lashes.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfznbFNsGaw
“Oh right” she says and I’ve disarmed her. I’ve achieved what I set out to do for today.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqqN8rEuaO
I look away, she will demand my attention back onto her and I just have to wait. I leave my hand on her thigh.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1T0zS8oFK
“Why are you being so nice to me” she asks. Bingo, I think watching cruise diving in and out of cars like action man.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfbmlPxNik
“Because I like you” I tell her looking at her again, I’m trying to keep her focus on me she has a habit of looking away. I keep my eyes on hers, and I bite my lip slightly. She watches me, purely staring and she’s deliberating what my intentions are.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGL8IHmD5v7
I pull away from her, no rushing. I stand up stretching out before her and she looks up at me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWKNG7yuX5
“When do you finish” I say casually.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLikV0q08jg
“I’ve got a few more patients” she says eyeing her little watch.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbYqNeX4Gf
“Wanna grab some food?” I ask, no expectations.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJibgJWgTzO
“Yes sure” she says dumbfounded. A grin spreading over her face which she has been holding in.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs79Oko6UI
“Cool, you wanna meet me back here” I ask her, giving her the option. She stands up smiling.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeggSTVKXs
“Yes that works Matthew” she says walking past me to the door.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoxc8Kqhi5
“Just Matty” I tell her and she smiles before leaving.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEs2SMKNBdW
I go back to messaging Taylor, commenting on every single little thing she has noticed about Italy. I sign it off with an I love you and three kisses.
