Taylor's POV
74Please respect copyright.PENANAxx0QcU4OmC
"Taylor" Matthew is whispering in my ear. I can feel his warm skin underneath me and I cling onto him.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAApJp9RwW2a
"Matty" I say confused. Why am I in bed with him? It's a dream. Where is my Jay?
74Please respect copyright.PENANADXnb6QCjpx
"Taylor" he says and I squint opening my eyes to the view of cherry tree, looking through the drapes somebody pulled around the bed. A hand strokes my hair and I smile. Closing my eyes again, I rest in the arms that are holding me.

"Mmm" I say softly, it's a dream. It has to be. I reach my hands down his chest just hovering on his lower abs. Circling my hands over the top of his boxers as he breathes in sharply.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAmNpv2xJL5u
"No naughty" he says softly.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAMYWoRcZwCU
"How am I ever going to keep my promises if you do that when we wake up" he sighs.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAXRpXxlicqK
"Matthew" I say, more sure that this is real. I stare up at his green eyes and chestnut curls remembering where I am and finally waking up.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAa3CRxEx8I5
"Morning" he says and I sigh looking at him.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAxgPr4Gemqe
"Sorry” I clear my throat
“Did you sleep okay" I ask him softly pulling my nightshirt down and covering myself up. My cheeks reddening and my skin feeling hot.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAPAyytPIAsx
"I slept amazing. How was your sleep" he says and I lay on my side facing him, trying not to glance at his chest. The bulge in his boxers, the man I used to make love to all night long before Jay. Turns out there’s a reason you don’t climb into bed with your ex, past memories and exorcising feelings.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAFAYjLOcvZZ
I place my hands on bump and wait for any little kicks.
74Please respect copyright.PENANALJbShyo1qz
"Talk again he loves your voice" I say looking up at him.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAFOsa9dLNaW
Matthew shuffles down the bed so that he is in line with my waist. I sigh, almost rolling my eyes. How does he expect me to keep my promises?
74Please respect copyright.PENANAHa9g0uJxrw
"Good morning" he smiles and his hands go over my bump under my nightshirt. Baby kicks excitedly and I smile. He looks up at me through his thick brown lashes and I can't help but smile.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAqzT6drajmu
He scoots back up so that he's facing me and I smirk at him.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAUFngbb3ovQ
"We have plans today" I tell him, and his evergreen eyes watch me.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAYw3N0qiB2t
"Oh really" he smiles and it's the first time in a long time I've seen his eyes glow.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAL01msj6LNs
"The hospital, we're getting somebodies number" I smirk and he bites his lip.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAh1X5RT6buJ
"No God no." He laughs assessing me and stroking my arm.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAp7PtLdLcAo
“Yes, strike while the irons hot” I giggle and he tickles me.
74Please respect copyright.PENANABVoIa8YuvH
“Why not” I scoff laughing.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAQoLz1KwxIP
“Because I don’t want her” he laughs back.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAZoViAVpmTI
He tickles me again and I chuckle tickling him right back.
“I’m gonna make it happen for you” I laugh.
74Please respect copyright.PENANA8VA6OfeKXb
“Get you the girl” I sigh and he tickles me further.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAKJuEgs61ge
“No” he laughs his lips not far from mine. He briefly and softly plants a kiss on my lips. It just happens, I don’t think he necessarily planned it. It’s more of a casual peck, but he lingers after.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAqvzCKZQuSe
“I’m sorry” he says pulling away again and I just stare at him.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAxLnDq0RWHl
“It’s okay” I whisper, stoking his face.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAKCuhrIANEg
“We have been together and it’s not fair of me to ask you to sleep here” I say quietly watching him.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAPnSA8Crd4W
“And that’s on me” I say.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAI7U6DtDg0m
“Not you” I add smiling.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAWd0DzhAolB
He holds me in close, and kisses my forehead and my hair. I yield to him and the feel of his arms around me.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAtKoXbhn9rX
“Let’s definitely not tell Jay” he sighs, running his hands through his hair. Like he can’t erase certain thoughts going through his brain. I stare up at him, Jay is important to him as a friend.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAuKMdmpFPIn
“Taylor he was pretty on me about not getting into bed with you. And I have a feeling he would absolutely belt me for it” he laughs.
74Please respect copyright.PENANA63yzvwW07k
I reassure him stroking his arm. This is not sneaking around; this is just two friends who need better physical boundaries I tell myself. Two friends who were lovers, who now have been left alone in a four poster bed.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAWlJOA73Cer
“If you would rather sleep alone tonight I get it” I say looking up at him. He’s evaluating what the right answer is here.
74Please respect copyright.PENANA50r3bccDdk
“Not a chance I want to hug you all night long” he says softly.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAHuhR4iV9Y4
“Now let’s feed you” he says putting his hands on my bump again. I smile and he stands up fully in his boxers.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAcj3IxrPQtj
“I’ll cook” I protest standing up next to him.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAllmOVslZBA
“I insist” I smile and guide him into the bathroom. I make sure he knows how to work the shower, because I’m a fabulous host. I back away from him as the shower runs awaiting somebody to stand under it.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAB61uHBnW5k
“It’s quite a view” he smirks standing arms crossed over his chest. I look at the lines of his back, his muscular shoulders. Pulling my eyes back to the view out into the gardens as he turns to face me.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAWo2LFI0nZE
“It’s lovely” I say softly.
74Please respect copyright.PENANApWJy1BI1Dm
“I know of better views” he says smiling.
74Please respect copyright.PENANArMpEUE2PYM
“Oh really” I laugh and now it’s his turn to look me over.
74Please respect copyright.PENANALEwTPtXSPV
“Mhmm” he smiles. And the air has become charged again.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAp3giUCnXRu
“You’ll just have to imagine that view, whilst you’re washing” I wink at him, turn on my heels and pace out of the en-suite.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAtzk5EPRVE2
It was cheeky, and I’m sure that he actually blushed. Cheeks flushing bright red just before I looked away practically marching myself out of the steamy bathroom.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAHqZjNCLNWP
I pull my nightshirt off, letting it fall to the floor and grabbing the body butter from the dresser, determined not to have stretch marks I rub it into bump inhaling its coconut scent. I scrubbed last night in the shower and my skin is exfoliated, I decide to put on my body oil. I push my hair back so that it is cascading down to my hips.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAGMtUN2zfYO
Looking up from the birds flying past the windows my eyes connect with Matty’s, frozen in the doorway.
74Please respect copyright.PENANALOKQNhuAnA
“I’m sorry Taylor I actually didn’t mean too I wanted to grab clean boxers” he says awestruck.
74Please respect copyright.PENANA5yJrTLLpTw
“You’ve seen it all before” I laugh nervously. He keeps his eyes trained on my face. His gaze dropping to my breasts when he gets distracted.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAdv8xXxuZeM
“Boxers Matty” I say as he stands there in shock.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAIolgydTHqv
“Right yeah” he stumbles over himself.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAigOE51Xyc7
I chuckle one hand covering my private area. The other over my nipples. He fumbles through his bag and grabs some Calvin Kleins.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAwxQ65AGzbD
“Ok” he says sighing.
74Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2Do2B59O2
“Got em” he smirks pushing his hair back and heading into the en-suite like a gentlemen.
