Taylor’s POV
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwWNWeLI5y
“Oh hey there dropout” Stiffy smirks at me, joining our group. We were supposed to study music together this year, except I changed my mind on enrolment day. Having felt that studying both music and dance alongside psychology would be too demanding.

“Oh can I see your guitar” I ask him and he smiles, nodding. Stiffy, or Steven, is a quiet guy. Shy almost, although he nods at Jay opening up his guitar case and pulling out an ebony acoustic guitar. It’s sleek and I can’t wait to get my hands on it.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRplPdkiOM0
He smiles as if giving me permission to give it a go.
Matthew relaxes next to me as I start to play. It has a lovely tone and I play a few songs. Clipping the capo on I play the song I made for Matthew as he strokes my side.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPFNMIyYW4
"Why did you not take music again?" Steven laughs sipping his coffee.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcaZ9FPu7r
"I wanted to focus on dance" I tell him seriously; looking down at his guitar before handing it back to him.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1VftWXREZ
"You're like really good though did you take grades" he asks me.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyHtKgxdNH
"Actually I did" I respond as Matthew strokes my hair.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmPrtTy9K9
"Grade 8? I'm guessing" he says and I nod to him.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUHYz7gTBX
"So if I have to record some guitar tracks for my coursework you can play it, and I'll mix it saying it's mine" he laughs jovially and I chuckle.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLewDFaGBE
"Actually seriously I've got to record a take of Bob Dylan. Would you be able to do a rendition for me. I’m being graded on how I mix the track" he asks me genuinely interested.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPyIxlvO9d
"Pass it back ?" I ask him, wondering if I remember any Bob Dylan tracks. He passes me the guitar again.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2qMqCfj4G
Stroking the strings again I start practising. Quietly singing at the same time. I glance up at Jay as he lounges back watching me, Ive not sang in front of many people before so this is a first for me. Steven nods along happily. Matthew strokes my thigh, he loves my voice. Many of our evenings involve him drawing accompanied by me singing and playing guitar. Often he starts singing along when he can't help himself. Ceasing my rendition of knockin’ on heavens door I catch Jay briefly gazing at me before he looks away cool.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBADav3Qs4F
"Yes, I'll sing and play it for you, let me know when" I tell Steven handing him back his guitar.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTQslebXmt
"Didn't realise you could sing as well Tay" Jay asks.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6KfCyDf4T
"Most people can sing, Jay" I tell him.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiotCp2HKXO
"No I mean like professionally" he says, drinking the last of his espresso.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa8qhTNnOh
"Oh I'm not professional" I smile over at him, expecting him to tease me.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz66A8BRT6F
He doesn't. He doesn't wink or pull his stupid grin. He just stares. And that is worse. I think I’ve broken him with my singing, so I look away. Placing my phone back in my handbag, and glancing over my side to Ross.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJN8idQr4Y
“See you tomorrow ?" I ask him softly hoping that we can walk into psychology together again.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YQpJMicKM
"Yeah look forward to it" he replies casually, eyeing Matthew just briefly. And the ring on my finger.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp76eFCfkUI
"I wonder if it will be about social conformity again" Jay says including himself in the conversation.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQdgSvxzyR
"Ah you just love that topic" I say shooting him a look across the table, glad that we’re back to teasing one another rather than him gazing into my eyes.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkb8RX7Koix
"Not as much as you" he laughs, and it’s better to be teased by him than him acting nice and genuine towards me. I watch as he nods to Matthew before we leave. Giving Ross a quick hug as I stare over his shoulder at Jay and his intense cerulean eyes.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvYcGuBsod
Matthew opens up the 4x4 and I climb in next to him; it’s a relatively quick journey from university. He takes the highway and within minutes we’re pulling into our drive, the fresh air hits me as we get out of the car. The weather officially turning cooler, the Californian black oak outside Matthew’s place has been littering its leaves all over the drive. Just past our back yard we are lucky to have a whole host of trees including pines and sycamores, which during the autumn months, I have found are beautiful to explore.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VEk2fzGi7
"What are you grinning about?" He asks me as I trudge up the driveway to the porch. Matthew has a large wooden deck outside the front door, with a small round table and two chairs on it.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoyU7i7Q9w
"I was just thinking we're back home together, and that makes me happy" I tell him as he pulls me into him once we’ve climbed up the steps to the porch.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA3DTqHiDP
"I mean this is our place now" I say holding him and pulling him in.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0gKTZwzjs
“And it’s autumn, the leaves are falling and we can start having cosy walks in the forest” I laugh.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNOftAkjDF
He can't resist it. I've learned Matty really does have a softer side, for me anyways. I place my hands under his shirt enjoying the warmth emanating from him. His grin stretches across his face, I stare at him before me. His warm brunette hair and tanned complexion, the green of his eyes. It strikes me that he fits in with the autumnal landscape just perfectly, with his warm ruddy cheeks and the chocolate tones of his hair.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXGhsZ4vRt
Unlocking the door he kicks it open, lifting me up so that my legs are wrapped around him. I laugh as he carries me into our home resting his keys on the small oak table to the side of the front door. He easily carries me up the oak staircase across the hall as I gaze out of the window at the forest to the back of our home and eventually into our room.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonAv5abxAq
Matthew sets me down against the wall, stroking up my arms and holding them above my head. As he pins me to the wall he takes my skirt off to reveal my leotard. He sucks his breath in clearly pleased, standing back and just eyeing me breathlessly.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJhbXuvlES
"These suit you, a lot" he says softly.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5GjKFO7kt
"You can undo it down there too" I tell him as his hands explore between my legs playing with the material. He quickly undoes it, I hear the popper snap open, and see his smile when he realises I have nothing under it. He pulls off his jeans and within one swift movement he is possessing me whilst pinning me against the wall.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9y2R46gVQ
Matthew is strong, in fact it is barely any effort for him to hold me up and thrust into me. I'm quite shocked that he is not more tired.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3erQy0YRdg
"Matty, this is intense" I tell him kissing his neck.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFOjndprZu
"This is what you get for teasing me all day" he whispers in my ear.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQHQscCYHy
“With these boots” he smiles his hands brushing the top of them as they reach my thighs.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkPWRcjLqd
“And this” he whispers pulling down the top of my leotard.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTd9P1JNfz
"You're so strong" I chuckle and he grins. It's the sexiest thing ever. How he isn’t even breaking a sweat is beyond me.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLjJZ2LRCQ
"I love you" he tells me possessively, thrusting into me harder.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTIrtDt0jv
"I have been waiting to fuck you since this morning" he whispers.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADjKXbC371
"Every guy has eyed you up in front of me today" he smirks.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LhTbtYls5
"But you're mine" he says in my ear softly.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK2PaI2rrs
I smile a wide grin just watching him as he holds onto my clasped hands.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdDr3NrxRH
"I'm yours Matthew, all yours. I love you" I tell him as he moans in my ear. I sigh, a deep heavy sigh as he finishes at the same time as me. Matthew holds me in his arms, kissing me over and over everywhere.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSZKdvSUfH
"That was excellent" I tell him as he looks up to face me.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOmu5UVIrx
We're still not using condoms. But I decided, that the contraceptive pill would work for me. Matty took me to my GP of course, and we got a prescription for three months worth of the contraceptive pill. So far no mood swings or excessive weight gain. And no pregnancy.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjjRtnYO0A
Glancing in the wardrobe that we share, I pull out one of his khaki green jumpers, its cashmere and I love it against my skin. Tying my hair up in a high ponytail I turn to face him and he smirks hugging me into his chest.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc27A2FGFb
"Let’s order Chinese tonight instead of cooking" he smiles down at me before guiding me down stairs to lay in front of the fire. Matthew tends it and gets it going before heading into our open plan kitchen and putting the kettle on the stove.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5s6xMJeaP
Flicking through the flatscreen and idly watching the flames lick up the chimney breast, I settle for a typical action movie and then scroll through my phone.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v7PG9RGCU
A notification comes through from Jay, mr Gilbert Scott southern Viking. Curiosity gets the better of me so I read it for a laugh. Remembering his icy blue stare earlier in the refectory.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0L3U83APxF
Will you also be sitting with me tomorrow in psychology?
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIX09ssuSQ
I had snubbed him earlier when I asked Ross to meet me before psychology. It’s clearly and unintentionally annoyed him. I sigh looking at the flames again. Deliberating what to say, I decide that teasing him is the best way for me to proceed.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsTgwq8N1l
Shouldn’t social conformists sit with their own kind and not with rebellious angsty non conformists? Grow up.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo3Ge0XiL9
I smile to myself, just visualising the way he will smirk at that message and bite his lip. I imagine him in his apartment looking out at his own flatscreen most likely watching a similar action movie and laughing to himself.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4dXlRwvgQ
Do I have to remind you that you are younger than me? I like your brand of social conformity, it’s endearing. Perhaps it’s rubbing off on me.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRzUR4NZXf
I chuckle, fiercely tapping back my reply, he’s undoubtedly funny. The southern Viking does have some good attributes.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcduXwZiisq
Younger in age not mindset. I must suggest then, if I’m rubbing off on you, that you immediately seek better company in psychology.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeiu071Ob6
He replies instantly and I find myself smiling again.
156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UHjZvx8s0
Not a chance, you’re good for me. See you tomorrow.
