Wildest Dreams (a Talvin/Tavin/Caylor/Tayvin story)

Chapter 3

I press my fingers onto my lips to ensure complete silence. Pin drop silence Taylor, don't make any noise, I reminded myself.

"Dan, c'mon don't be weird" One of them spoke

"I'm not"

"Then let's just go back to our seats"

The room falls completely still for a moment. Eventually I could hear their their footsteps fade and disappear towards the closing door. Thank goodness, my feet were getting drowsy by the minute. I walk out of the booth and drench my hands in the cold stream of water by the sink. Sighing in relief as I reach for the tissues to pat my hands dry while accidentally knocking off the knickers I had previously placed on the counter. As I kneel over towards the ground the door opens almost at the same time.

"Excuse me?" Someone hissed. I look up and saw the same pair of caramel eyes I did earlier.

"What are you you doing here?" I blurted out in panic

"What am I doing here? What are you doing here? It's the men's loo" Calvin splutters back. By now, my cheeks were burning holes through my skull and turning crimson red, it's weird how clearly I can see myself blush despite the dim lightings.

"Were you stalking me?" He raises an eyebrow

"Stalking you? No, I was changing into these!" I hold up the knickers without thinking. Why did I say that? I could've said I was washing my hands or fixing my damn hair but the adrenaline got me into telling the truth.

"In that position?" He replied. At this moment, I realised I was still bent over the counter with my right hand up in the air also still holding the knickers. I clear my throat out of embarrassment and straighten myself back up.

"Im sorry" was all I managed to say. I leave without saying another word, passing by him as our shoulders collide sending jolts of electricity through my upper body. The guy sure isn't friendly but I can't deny the fact that I want to get to know him better.

2 Days Later

I've never really liked the crowd personally, I prefer staying indors at the state of tranquility. But when Karlie begged me out of desperation to get me to join her 'single ladies' night out I couldn't help but to agree at the sound of her pleading.

"I'll come by your apartment in a bit, go and get dressed" She reminded me

"Okay, mom" I teased

"Oh and one more thing, try not to bring your cats this time. It's a party, not a sleepover" She giggles through the phone before ending the call.

An Hour Later

The car stops, revealing the venue of the party; a large mansion with neon lights spelling 'party animals'. Ugh, how tacky is that, I let out a groan. The mansion however was enormous, almost like a modern day castle with chandeliers hanging down every few metres and golden pavements leading to the grand entrance. The night was dark but the garden, lit perfectly enough for me to see the various flower arrangements and traveling vines against the water fountain. To my right I could see the ocean crashing into the sandy coastline, over and over almost interesting enough to watch forever. I walk into the main entrance and look around in search of a familiar face but is distracted by how beautifully furnished the interior of this mansion is.

"This way" Karlie leads the way. I walk slowly to indulge myself longer in the luxury this mansion provides through its silver entailed wallpaper, glass tiles and shimmering skyline. She leads me through several rooms before finally reaching the party arena. The size of this room alone is twice the size of my apartment. To my right I could see 3 different bars operating at the same time, 3 different bartenders trying to impress the crowd by tossing cocktail shakers instead of bowling pins like they do at the circus. To my left I could see the guests trying to make a conversation with each other over the loud music and bright lights.

"Everybody put your hands in the air!" The DJ screamed. Even under the blaring music I could tell who that voice belonged to.

"My name is Harry Styles and I'm here to make sure you all have a good time"

"It's him" I paused. It's been weeks maybe months since the break up but I never not once bothered to think about the day we would run into each other again. Startled by his presence I walk away from Karlie and the girls towards the main entrance. I quickly head out into the streets and dial the cab company from my cell.

"Hello how may I assit you?" The operator lady spoke

"Yes, hello I need a-" Before I could finish, the call ends. "Shit" I whispered under my breath, I just remembered that I had forgotten to charge my phone. What am I gonna do now? I rushed back inside and head upstairs, at least Harry won't be in here I said. I sneak into the room at the end of the hallway and pushed the door shut. Panting and sweating from going up the tall staircase. I started looking around for a place where I could charge my phone, after finding one I leave it plugged in while I sit on the bed. I couldn't hear any of the music from here and the air was cold. The fragrance of lavender dominated the room and before I know it I was curled up in bed under the soft carressing duvet listening to myself breathe as it slows down until eventually falling asleep.

The door creaks open and forces the fluorescent light from the hallways to jolt me awake causing me to rub my eyes over and over.

"What the fuck are you doing in here?" Someone yelled.

"Am I in the wrong room?" I asked

"You always seem to be in the wrong room, Taylor" My eyes open at the mention of my name. Is that him? Again?

"So I guess you've decided to come to the party too?" I asked again

"Yes, believe it or not I was the first one here." I could sense the bitterness from the way he speaks

"Really? So that means you live around here?" I said

"Yes I do, in fact welcome to my room" He says angrily. Wait what? I thought to myself, this can't be his house unless.....

"This is my party. I'm a DJ with lots of connections, hence the parties" He interrupts my train of thoughts.

There are over thousands of mansions in LA, how did I end up in this one? What are the chances of Calvin and I bumping into each other again for the third time this week.
