I Looked Across and Fell In Love

Chapter 6

**A few weeks later**

[Ed's POV]

"So tells us a bit about your friend, Taylor?" The interviewer asks

"She's great. I have had a lot of fun with her lately. We have both had some time off recently and have been hanging out! Its great!" I offer, Taylor and I have talked a lot about this sort of stuff and decided that if it came up, if we were directly asked, we would not keep it a secret.

"So we recently saw something about you leaving her home around 4 am...and you hadn't changed!!" The other interviewer, a woman, asks making Taylor and I seem very scandalous, "can you tell us about that? Is there something going on between you two?"

"Well, um," I stutter. I was nervous as to how to word this, "the truth is...yes, Taylor and I are together. But that particular evening did not consist of anything you think." I spit out very quickly, slightly worried they hadn't heard me, but not too worried... but they had. I can see it on their faces, clear as the day. "We were actually talking about what to say in a situation like this. And we also played each other some new music... and only did some other things happen every so often..." I blush and the interviewers 'ooohh' at the last remark. Fuck. Why did I say that? I'm an idiot.

"Well thank you Ed! That is great to hear! Best of luck to the both of you! Thanks for coming and seeing us!" The man exclaims.

"Thanks for having me." I say quietly, still embarrassed by what I had said before.

I walk into Taylor's house and she is sitting watching 'Law and Order'.

"Hi, love." I say, she doesnt get up.

"Hello. I heard your interview, today." She replies.

Shit. I was afraid of that. "I'm sorry, Taylor. It just came out. I don't think sometimes! You know that!" I walk towards her grabbing her shoulders, looking apologetic.

"...I know..." she looks down,"It's just so embarrassing! Just thinking about what people thought when you said that!"

"I'm sorry! I was so embarrassed, too! I was so glad they finished after that, I dont think I could've gone on!" I try to get her to forgive me. Suddenly my phone rings, I answer without looking at the caller ID. I answer with a simple 'hello.'

"SO I MEANT NOTHING TO YOU?!" Athina's voice yells from the other end. I open my mouth to speak but she continues,"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU COULD JUST GO DATE SOME OTHER GIRL RIGHT AFTER WE BREAK UP! HOW DESPERATE ARE YOU?!" I'm ready to defend myself, but im still not given a chance to speak. "YOU BOTH ARE HUGE SLUTS WHO CAN GO TO HELL!" click.

"Are you okay?" Taylor asks, very concerned. Its adorable. She pulls me into a hug.

"Im okay. Mostly mad because she said nasty things about you, too."

"I will be okay." She says with ease, damn... she really does "Shake It Off".

"Eh, that bitch can meet me in hell..." I say and pull Taylor into a passionate kiss. Every time our lips touch its beautiful. And I get butterflies.... I know, corny... but true.

We sit down on the couch after that and fall asleep watching TV. Another boring evening, one might say... but to me, it's another day in paradise.
