Taylors POV
This chapter is just before chapter one
"So I have caught three, what's your total Scott?" I say using his second name.
"Real funny see you're enjoying this" he smiles. He's sitting opposite me in the boat shirt off smoking and sulking. It's warm and the sunshine hazes over the lake, something in the way the light shines over him draws my eyes in. He pushes his hair back, and sighs.
"Patience" I smile hooking another.
"One trip and suddenly you're an expert" he laughs glancing at me.
"You need more patience" I add continuing with what I had been saying.
"You have to wait" I laugh.
He snorts and splashes water my way.
"Real mature" I splash back.
Occasionally he glances at me when he thinks I'm not looking. Like magnets our eyes focus and lock. His eyes watch me in a serious, crazy, I want you for the rest of my life kind of way.
"Here" he passes me a cigarette. It's unusually warm for March and seen as I have the upper hand on the amount of fish I've caught I sit back and smoke. I'm watching him focusing on his fishing rod and I chuckle.
"What!? I can sense there is a big one on the end of it and I need to catch it, makes up for three small ones right" he laughs winking at me.
"Depends on the size of it babe" I jibe back.
"Really that's funny, we're going there are we ?" He laughs.
"I just feel if you had to mention the size in the first place..." I smile.
Jay splashes me with water again and I laugh. After the shock of just how chilled the water is I smile over at him.
"So cheeky." He says and then pulls at the rod. I wore my bikini under my shirt and I pull off my wet top.
"Hey look babe" he says and my heart melts glimpsing a younger version of him. It's the way he says it with innocence and wonder. He pulls out the rod and he has a huge carp on the end.
Looking up at me from his catch he smiles his broad grin and laughs.
"Wow hot" he says and he becomes the other Jay that I love. The insatiable one who never tires from looking at me.
"That is big" I say and he laughs instantly.
"I told you have faith in me babe" he says.
"I didn't lack faith I was just teasing you" I say smiling lounging back in my bikini top. He eyes my chest smiling and puts down his catch releasing it back into the water to be free again.
He sits next to me in the boat lounging back arm around my shoulder. I relax into him and he gazes down at me.
"This is perfection for me Taylor, being here with you. Doing stuff like this." He says and I turn to face him kissing him on his lips as our boat sways back and forth on the water.
"Me too Jay" I say sighing as he breaks away.
"Do you have the full bikini on too" he whispers in my ear. My cheeks flush and go warm.
"I sure do" I smile up at him.
It's red, his favourite colour.
He sighs. Stroking my arm and my hip bone.
"Fancy a dip" he smiles at me cheekily.
I stand up in front of him attempting to keep myself steady on the rocking boat. I pull my jeans down and he is transfixed, and speechless. Just the reaction I had been hoping for.
"well are you joining me or not" I say smiling.
I'm a badass. I make sure I move off of the boat as gracefully as possible. The water hits me and it's cold. I refuse to shout instead I let myself acclimatize. After a few seconds I feel refreshed and actually it's really nice.
I stick my head under and looking back up I see Jay getting in too.
"Fuck, that's cold" he sighs.
I swim over to him and kiss his lips holding his jaw. His hands circle my waist holding onto me.
"There's no like crazy human eating fish in here right" I say laughing.
"Babe no we're in a lake not the ocean" he laughs.
I laugh and we kiss for ages in the water nobody around us for miles.
"I anchored the boat baby" he says watching me the water dripping down his beautiful face.
"I love you Jay, I want to be with you forever. I know that categorically now" I tell him sincerely looking into his eyes.
He looks at me astonished, kissing my lips again and again, over and over. He pushes his wet hair back and I'm stunned by his handsomeness.
"We should move in together, here" he smiles at me. Confidently gauging my reaction watching my eyes.
"Here ?" I say breathless. My heart practically lurches, my head shouting at me to say yes now.
"Yes here, we can get to uni still and if we have a really early lecture or a late finish we can just use the apartment" he says smiling. He's got it all sorted in his head and I chuckle at him.
"Say yes" he says kissing me.
He laughs slightly kissing me again.
"Think about it" he smiles.
"I texted my mum by the way" he says floating in the water with me hands fastened securely around my waist.
"Next week work for you" he asks smiling.
"Of course, I can't wait to meet her" I say.
His hands go through my wet hair and he smiles. I'm wearing my earrings and necklace that he got me and he smiles eyeing them up.
"Let's get you back into the boat" he says as it's starting to get darker.
I climb back in first and once he's on board he goes down underneath the boat into the storage and grabs some blankets for us to use on the journey back.
