Dream

1.

"Hey. Wake up." She whispered in my ear as she ran her finger tips up and down my spine. I rolled over to see a dark skinned, curly haired, chestnut eyed beauty on my bed. "Bubba!" I exclaimed loosely, still half asleep.

She leaned down and kissed my forehead and my lips formed up to make a smile. "Are you ready to go?" she asked quietly moving my messy hair out of my face. "I have my things but...Do I look ready to go to you?" I smirked looking down at my Star Wars pajamas.

She grabbed my wrists and pulling me up. I sat up and looked at her before adjusting my hair to look somewhat decent.

I normally don't get to see Taylor. But when I do, oh lord... I'm the happiest girl in the world.

"Go get dressed ya shit." She giggled before wrapping her arms around me, laying her forehead on my shoulder. I smile and formed my arms around her waist, placing gentle kisses on her neck.

"I love you." she mumbled trying to hide her face. "And I love you." I said pulling away from her. I walked over to my dresser and grabbed my favorite pair of shorts and Taylor's sweatshirt. I look up to see Taylor pouting in my direction.

I raised my eye brow "What did I do?" I said trying to hold back a little laughter.

"Come love me."
God that one gets me every time.

I walked over and pressed my lips against her pouting ones. She relaxed in my arms, and I smiled against her.

Her kisses are indescribable, honestly. I could be having the most god awful day ever and as soon as those gorgeous lips of hers met mine all of the bad things would just.... Disappear.

Once she recuperated she brought her hands to my hair and tangled the strands in between her fingers. I smiled and pulled back enough to say "Not now, num nums. We need to go." She giggled softly and pulled me into her, and kissed me again. "Fine." she uttered against my lips. I smiled and stepped back from her.

Her cheeks tinted red, and her lips swollen from contact. God she's so beautiful.

I grabbed my bag, along with her hand and walked down stairs. "We haven't done this in awhile." Taylor said, rubbing her thumb gently across my knuckle. I smiled at her then said a quick fair well to my mom. "I know. Almost a month." I finished to Taylor as I opened the copilot door to the car for her.

--------------------------------------------

Lana Del Rey played in the background between conversation. My right hand rested on Taylor's leg while my left hand sat on the steering wheel, directing the car.

"Are you excited?" I questioned, squeezing Taylor's thigh gently. "Very." she stated quickly before grabbing my hand.

After two hours in the car the Space Needle came into sight. I could feel the excitement flow through Taylor's veins into the palm of my hand.

"I love you." I smiled, glancing over at her. Her cheeks tinted to a deep red, "I love you too." I loved seeing her so happy, and I knew a phrase that it gets her every time I said it. "A mother fuck ton load, babe." I said trying not to smile. Taylor squeezed my knuckles together and looked out the window, but little did she know I could see her in the rear view mirror on the passenger side.

-----------------------------------------

December weather in Washington is ridiculous. This is the first snow we've had in awhile, and my smart ass decided to wear shorts. Great.

I pulled into Point Defiance Zoos parking lot and asked Taylor to look out for parking spots. I drove up and down for ten minutes before Taylor hit the window and said "Bug! I found one!"

I unbuckled as well as Taylor did. She shuffled around in her purse while I watched her patiently.

I love her so much. I don't get it. how can one person be so ridiculously perfect? Jesus Christ.

She grabbed her phone and turned toward my direction. "Babe, so Tash-" I was kissing her. I smiled against her perfect lips and held her face with my hand. I rubbed my thumb across her cheek bone and gently pulled away and kissed her nose.

"You're such a babe." She smiled shoving her phone back into her black purse. I smirked and got out of the car, and quickly walked around opening her door for her. I offered my hand to her, and she took it. She stepped out of the car and closed the door.

God I hope this works.

---------------------------------------------

We looked at the animals that were out that day for awhile. The snow stuck in Taylor's curly, ridiculous hair. It made me smile and I don't know why. Everything she did made me smile.

The last time her and I came to the zoo it was for my birthday. There were a lot more animals out then. But I've been planing this for what seems like decades. Waiting to turn 22 was hell. But oh good lord I hope this is worth waiting 6 years.

The snow became heavier and darkness wrapped itself around the sun like a blanket. Taylor kept close to me and held my hand. I went up on my tippy toes and kissed her cheek. Being 3-4 inches taller than me, it makes it hard to kiss Taylor flat footed. As I pull away the lights turn on.

It seemed to light up half of Seattle. the different lights tangled themselves together in the sky. Making lit deer, and elephants that stood 9 feet in the air. I glanced over at Taylor to see her mouth wide open, looking around at the lights that filled the sky.

I started pulling Taylor around. She looked around at these lights like she's never seen light before. It was adorable. We laughed at things, and stared in awe at other things. We walked around the corner.

There's the elephant.

What do I do? Fuck fuck fuck.

She loved elephants.

It's time.

--------------------------------------------

"Taylor." I started, squeezing her hand. She look over at me, with love overflowing in her eyes. I smiled.

"It's been 6 years.. You'll be 18 soon. And we've been through hell together. I love you so much Taylor Ann. I honestly have no clue what I'd do without you.." tears welled up in her eyes and she held my hand tighter.

This red elephant made of lights seems to be begging me to just do it.

I slid my hand into my pocket and started again, "When I say I don't know what is do without you, that means I can't be without you..So.." I pulled out a small black box from my pocket an knelt down on my knee, looking up at Taylor as she towered over me.

"Will you be my Num Nums forever? Will you marry me, Taylor?"

---------------------------------------------

Then I woke up. But hey.

For: she knows who she is
