Matty's POV
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5PSnDeTcY
"I can tell you without a doubt, Taylor is just a touch feely person. But if you would rather I don't let her hug me" I begin, we're driving to Jay's. And yes, Olivia is making an effort to be nice, but there's still this element of Taylor touched you I want to kill her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCW9xJFROe
I pull up at the gates and let us in, she rolls her eyes at me being on the security system and I smirk.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5qsXmCGgx
"He's my best friend" I say laughing.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYXz6FdvOA
"And she's your ex" she scoffs.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2BfS8hhBw
"This is quite some place they have" she says looking over at me.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwB3yUcSBK
"It is isn't it" I laugh looking over at the cherry trees, the ones I used to gaze at when I woke up to Taylor briefly in the mornings.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsW2J5PsMU
"You should see the pool" I say laughing.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx4PvsXCvk
"This is going to turn into a pool party isn't it" she laughs.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUtlBAWTWW
"Who knows" I smirk over at her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNJC4S4mH9
"I don't have any like swimwear on under my clothes" she protests.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSPXbZGdAk
"You won't need it" I smirk, and I wink at her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRilojWwvH
"Oh Matty stop it" she laughs. I place my hand on her thigh and she rolls her eyes.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNtJoKQZO8
"You're telling me that you don't want to skinny dip with me" I ask her laughing.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4Y4Hd6Xw4
"With just you" she smirks and I roll my eyes.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOeTf2Z2sA
I park up next to Jay's car beside the water fountain and she takes a look around her. Eyes widening, she looks at the home, the grounds and the fact that there are no neighbours.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuS9vkKvOtV
"It's fancy huh" I laugh and she looks at me surprised.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqszka96Dm
"It sure is" she laughs back as I come around to her side of the car open the door and help her out.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrfnRefCV1
I spot Rachel's car on the drive and guide Olivia over to the large front door, up the marble steps. I press the bell and we wait together under the porch light.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly7EFLxjF3
Jay answers and he smiles at me pulling me in for a hug, he greets Olivia in a similar fashion but commenting on her dress saying that she looks wonderful.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY1QkfYatj
I remove my suit jacket and hang it in the cloakroom where I always used to and follow Olivia out past the marble staircase into the kitchen, rolling my shirt sleeves up as I go.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlrOTxLgHc
I gaze at Taylor first; she takes up all of my attention, wearing a cream floor length gown which is strapless. Low at the back, fabric that skims down over her bump and hangs down to the floor. Her skin glowing, with the tan she has acquired from her travels. Hair cascading down her back, and light makeup accompanied by red lips. She's a vision.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrczK37Rzf
"Matthew" she whispers in my ear, pulling me in for a hug. Which I'm sure Olivia is watching eagle eyed.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXteHEfwLm3
"Please you must look at her not me, like that. She will hate me" she whispers right in my ear. I smirk turn my head to her ear.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyWeADkVAK
"But look at you" I whisper.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91UGbt5IK7
"Look at her" she smiles at me.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpOPo7ytKg
She removes herself from my arms and goes over to Olivia. I watch her briefly before Jay takes up my attention offering me whiskey. I drove but there's space to stay.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3pJrC4CYC
"Join me" he says and I smile at him taking the glass. He takes a seat around the oak kitchen island and I follow suit. Next to Ross who is currently speaking to Rachel.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUPdS7XZXo
Shes wearing a silver gown and where it's nice it's nothing on Taylor's. I glance over at Taylor hugging Olivia. Olivia chose an emerald dress in spite of Rachel's comments about green not being an option. It's long and both high necked and high at the back. She looks sweet.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlBwRYEGtz
Taylor is offering her a drink, going through many options in order to find what she likes. I smile at Olivia and she returns my expression.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyhSbR39Bh
"Matthew" Rachel begins and I turn to her and her date.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5aiXOuNFH
"Yes Rachel" I say smoothly sipping my whiskey.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5cEQaHOP2
"Are you two a thing now" she says sipping her Prosecco.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthG91I7V7s
"I'm not really sure, we're just seeing how things go" I say smiling at Christopher, also wearing a suit however it's not Armani like Jay's.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsE5f4JveX
"Nice to see you again man" I say to him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYStXSOLk7
"You too Matty" he smiles and sips his own whiskey.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4Mx62GhEX
"I like pale pink on a guy" he smiles, looking at my shirt.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnD2iTNt4v
"Thanks Olivia insisted" I smirk at him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn6RqqLqft
"Brings out the green in your eyes man" Jay laughs and I smirk at him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4t2aJn0Eq
Taylor brings Olivia over to us, she deposits her with me, as if to say you deal with her. Unable to serve her a drink as she's too picky. She finds her way into Jays arms and smiling she looks up at him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAT6c7zaWa
"I'm going to cook now" she says looking up at him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNdUBpMS62
"Fajitas and enchiladas" she smiles.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCte1Chomi
"I'm hungry now" he chuckles and she smirks at him. Is it me or are they continually taunting me with their displays of affection and love.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPOgVvC4YW
"You can have some olives" she smiles.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzq258sOthg
She heads over to the fridge and collects a few bowls from the cupboard, emptying the contents of the olives and cubes of cheese and tomatoes into the bowls.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4AgaH5YIM
"Here" she says bringing them over to us. She takes an olive, places it in between her teeth and kisses him. He takes the olive watching her captivated and I look down at Olivia who is utterly bemused.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MU5u8fNxc
"Oh break it off" Rachel laughs swatting Jay and he laughs.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJcdnhGj9j
"What it's my wife" he says laughing and Rachel rolls her eyes.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJoo98YulM
"You just love saying that don't you" she smirks and Taylor kisses him again.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCSEbAX85G
"Mhmm yes" he says when she pulls away.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteNB3aC817
"Black bean, avo and peppers" Taylor says looking at Olivia, tentatively.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQc30klBXu
"Would be lovely, thanks Taylor" Olivia says and Taylor smiles warmly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE8lOoFmX2
"Would you like some help" Olivia says nicely, and I smile down at her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpOw2b1rI1
"Honestly please relax you're a guest, I've got this" Taylor smiles.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3llo9Z0zm
Jay tops up my whiskey and then Christopher's. Taylor turns the speaker on and hooks up her playlist smiling, I watch her briefly remembering how we cooked in here together. I crave being alone with her, how she would sway to her music and smile over at me.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBq1p64Kafb
Taylor is cooking and it's distracting me, watching her walk around the kitchen whilst I'm trying to hold a conversation is difficult. Rachel is dancing around with Prosecco in her hands and Olivia is very much glued to the stool next to me.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeYpDJq9yG
"What I do isn't particularly fancy" Jay begins, Christopher is interested in his job. I would be too if I saw all of this wealth for the first time.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn1B1lyt7n
"I work as a COO for my dad's company" Jay says and I smirk slightly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo33yzZXdh
"It's my dad's business, I was always going to get the job" he laughs modestly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG40T14TuyN
They begin talking business and I stand up to calm down Rachel. I approach her friendly and tell her that she's the only one dancing. She attempts to dance with me but I approach Taylor. Rach rolls her eyes following me and also peering over the food.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv5zefjnIQ
Taylor looks up at me expectantly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MEPOYllfB
"Is this okay for the black beans" she says softly as I peer over her shoulder.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkkBOBpxSq
"I've always cooked meat" she clarifies. I yearn to kiss her worried little face. My hand involuntarily rubbing her back.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCWZ4jcPWH
"It looks wonderful to me" I say looking down into her eyes. She asks me to chop up some peppers and onions and so I help out. Rachel gets distracted and pours herself some more Prosecco.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8CmGbPKSn
"How's it going" Jay says and I look up. His hands now around her waist, his mouth on her ear. A smile across her face.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMjjVSQ8tV
He's rolled his shirt sleeves up, his Rolex on show, tatoos peeking out under his pale blue sleeves.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwZRTo8prc
"Is somebody a bit hungry tonight" she laughs and I pass her the onions. I proceed to get on with chopping the peppers.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uHAB10qW9
He gently moves her aside and takes over frying the chicken one handed, his other arm around her bump.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ52UtqyeH
"I'm not even hungry for that I'm hungry for" he smirks and Olivia comes to stand by me. I smirk at her and she helps to cut up the vegetables.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgSncKtMV5
"Darling" Jay says holding her from behind, he's cooking she's resting back on him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtpHdHjjtD
"He's insatiable" Taylor laughs looking at Olivia who is just confused.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7TtqH611a
"Well look at you" Jay smirks and I envy him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyJbvZ8yMW
"Please be careful with the spatula" Taylor smirks.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyY3pjv0kg
"White dress here" she laughs and he kisses down her neck laughing.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsaxaHyVvl
"Let me do this" he says softly and she looks up at him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEiHWrcPZm
"Okay deal but can I stay in your arms" she smirks.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8DcFhvyqK
"Of course" he smiles.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0hm1nmftL
"I'm quite enjoying you holding the weight of the baby" she sighs.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrl7BeG9FLJ
"What's the next step darling" he says in a southern accent and I laugh.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd0TkqAMEE
"Jay spent a lot of time in Tennessee” I inform Olivia and he smirks over at her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkHfXStclD
"Add the peppers, half for each pan please" Taylor laughs back at him, she eyes me briefly still chopping and I smile at her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFsbK3U3Xh
"Matthew god darn it give me the peppers" he laughs.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSzhryEIMp
"On their way man" I tell him and he laughs again.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhL2oLOBLe
"You just cannot get the staff nowadays" he laughs with Taylor and she kisses him, again.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fSVohu3L8
"Babe would you give Jay those ones" I ask Olivia including her and she smiles.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGI8wPccwo
"Of course" she says softly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7dsvyEEym
"Here" she says to him, scooping the peppers into both pans.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeoV4qiAAQ
"See some professionalism" he smirks smiling at her and Taylor looks up at me again.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUjEwq8air
"That's all I wanted" Jay teases me.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqWfydkAkr
"God you're hard to work for" I laugh, smiling at Taylor.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydAjJgt9ul
"Didn't make me COO for nothing. Now chop em' Matty otherwise the chicken will burn" he laughs and I miss this side to him. The guy that has a laugh. I glance over at him and see just how happy he is with her in his arms. Joy radiating from him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9fNS0JQIi
"Here we are" I say to Olivia and she passes the rest of the peppers down.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AdeH5Actq
"Okay now, Matthew" Taylor says smiling over at me.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpXmg2USVA
"The tortillas" she says and I begin preparing them.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6vlDIVhwH
"That done chef?" Jay asks Taylor and she nods as he scoops up a bit and feeds her it.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPrE3QBRKV
"Perfection Jay baby" she says and Olivia practically snorts. I sip my whiskey.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZMNBzCPVP
"Jay baby?" Olivia asks.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYEhnXCYgj
"Yes do you not like my nickname" Jay laughs back.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpukp8RkDbl
"He's my baby and I'm having his babies" Taylor laughs and Olivia smirks
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7T0wNjXhn
"Two big bowls serving ones" Taylor instructs Jay and he swipes his hair back and heads over to the cupboards.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxuIn0j31o
"No cross contamination" Taylor says as he hands her the serving dishes. She looks cute spooning the veggie option into one of the bowls.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnWRnmneHy
"Thanks Taylor for going to all this effort for me" Olivia says softly and it's genuine.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Zyfd4MkIz
"It's not a problem" Taylor smiles and I watch her place one on the table.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ2xTYTFfI
"Jay we got the meat one served up yet" she says almost clicking at him and he laughs.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIacu9Ba4tD
"On it darling" he smiles.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mFube5YTO
We all take a seat and I notice that Jay sits at the head of the table. It is his table after all in his house.Taylor sits next to him and I decide to sit opposite her, Olivia to my right. I pour her a glass of wine and she accepts it, I've learned that's how you need to be with her. You don't give choices, you just give her stuff and she either accepts it or she doesn't.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDolQiegUG3
"Thanks Tay" Rachel says as she sits in next to Christopher. Ross on her other side sitting next to Taylor.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOuJOEZ6J1
"This smells amazing" Olivia says and she's positively full of the compliments tonight.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL43MBX28rT
"Thank you" Taylor says smiling looking up at me.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuBohYMdtz
We all make up a fajita each and I notice how Taylor waits till last. I make up a fajita and hand it to her, she thanks me graciously and I sip my whiskey before making up my own.
