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.

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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29wxJp2zc1
"Olivia" I say and she looks over at me almost jumping slightly.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wOQobBHMR
"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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFleryV7yUl
"I mean it sit down" I say and she just watches me; half appalled, half turned on.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9xNixXFst
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 ?
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlKQTSww1R
“This movie” I begin softly and I look over at her. She looks at me half smiling, half wary.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1SIldO6FM
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqR9dcAHLSW
She laughs and relaxes slightly.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXep3Gfkv9r
“You have an accent” she says after a pause.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT2d9sUN6C
“I spent a lot of the time in the UK, when I was younger” I explain looking at her briefly.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90eHq7hbJH
“I like it” she says softly and this is too easy for me.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kdbEfoUz5
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaC7hgub3x
“No” she says simply, slightly uncomfortably.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaueCW2DjoB
“I like that you can draw” she says and it takes me by surprise.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aUDqMKt1q
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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFtSovs5qu
“This is” I say finding a drawing I did of a landscape.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TtTHLqr62
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKsrgsAaE9
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuQ0Rl6Pcr
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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKjNipobUQ
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzLG1iy9Md
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDsJbRu6Zk
“Put your number in it” I command her.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqvqMBybWV
She smirks.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLP6b7aO1Ue
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHs2CcRBrY
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhP68vB9jF
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGocucasZC
“Are you through with her” she whispers softly and it takes me by surprise.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTqy9O8Wit
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLiFBpJTqQ
“You know who” she replies.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9lJKz7Hpa
“Taylor” I ask.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uJWaOPGY6
“Yes” she asks.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB9BwcbvNs
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhuU1R1UZz
“Oh right” she says and I’ve disarmed her. I’ve achieved what I set out to do for today.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKg0EKseva
I look away, she will demand my attention back onto her and I just have to wait. I leave my hand on her thigh.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgG7pM4G1md
“Why are you being so nice to me” she asks. Bingo, I think watching cruise diving in and out of cars like action man.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUQjecuyPh
“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.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcHDE6IsFU
I pull away from her, no rushing. I stand up stretching out before her and she looks up at me.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPp3ZhoVKL
“When do you finish” I say casually.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwXwaX8bSW
“I’ve got a few more patients” she says eyeing her little watch.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKonfFVnQd0
“Wanna grab some food?” I ask, no expectations.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgolBsmGTJ
“Yes sure” she says dumbfounded. A grin spreading over her face which she has been holding in.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmE2VXvHu4R
“Cool, you wanna meet me back here” I ask her, giving her the option. She stands up smiling.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSDcERqkzd
“Yes that works Matthew” she says walking past me to the door.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ24WuhrWdy
“Just Matty” I tell her and she smiles before leaving.
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2WqHiAgJ6
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.
