Keeping Secrets

Chapter Four

(Hey y'all, so just a heads up this part is gonna have some semi-mature content. if you know anything about my writing styles, you know that I am not one to go into extreme detail, but in case you are not into reading sexual themes, feel free to not read this chapter)

Everyone is well aware of my "relationship" with Calvin, and have been for a few weeks now. I'm not getting so much hate now, which is nice. But I don't get to see Ed as much now, which isn't nice. Most day's, I go out with Calvin and he stays hiding away at our apartment. And when he does leave, he has to go out the back, so as to not be seen by anyone.

Remember when I said I hoped this whole publicity stunt wouldn't effect Ed and I? Man was I wrong! This has only made us closer, probably because we see each other much less than before. Our relationship is stronger, our friendship is better, and things have gotten very...hands on? I guess? It's honestly a lot of fun and it's like when we first started dating. It's not like anything I've experienced.

Today Calvin and I have to go out. Just to be seen in public again this week. Ed has been busy finishing his tour and working on his next album a lot lately. Meaning we see each other even less than normal. But luckily for me, he has a few days off. So I invite him to come with me.

"Come on it'll be fun!" I try again to persuade him.

"Taylor, I don't think so. It'll be frowned upon. I can see it now, "Taylor's ex meets new man". No thank you," he says.

"Please?" I sit on his lap and give him a pouty face.

"Fine," he sighs and rolls his eyes, "but I won't enjoy it."

"You don't know that," I say with a wink, leaving to take a shower to prepare for the day's events.

"You can't do that, Swift! I will get you for that!" He calls back at me.

"I'm sure you will!" I holler back.

-----------------------------------------
I hear knocking at the door, just as I finish getting ready.

"Ed, will you get it?" I ask him, both of us knowing it's Calvin.

"Hi, Calvin. How are you." Ed answers the door, gesturing him to come inside.

"Thanks," Calvin nods, waling inside the apartment with Ed, "Not too bad, yourself?" They have gotten along a lot better since we first met him.

"I'm good, thanks. I mean, why wouldn't I be? We're both dating a hot girl, right?" They laugh.

"You have a good point there," Calvin replies. I decide that I look presentable for the world so I step into the living room, where I find both of them have made themselves comfortable on the couch talking about something, I can't quite figure out.

"I'm ready!" I say, announcing my presence. They both turn to face me, both looking a bit stunned. I blush, I'm wearing a white crop top and overalls, nothing to sexy or anything but whatever makes them happy, I guess?

"You guys are weird," I sit in the chair sitting next to the couch, "planning on leaving anytime soon?"

"Yes, now?" Calvin answers.

"Okay, you don't mind if Ed tags along right?" I stand right back up, putting on some black heeled booties.

"Not at all, lunch for three!" Calvin and Ed stand up and the three of us walk out the door.

Calvin has made plans for a simple Italian restaurant, but simple is nice. I don't need expensive dates to be 'wooed'. Ed sits next to me, and Calvin sits across from me. We all dig into the endless breadsticks that were already at the table. Not long after ordering there's whispering, tiny ear kisses and footsie under the table between Me and Ed. Calvin is clearly disgusted by it all, probably because he's on the other side of the door when this kinda thing happens. Our meals come and lunch passes a bit too slowly for my liking. Although everything that took place in the restaurant also took place in the car as well. The three of us walk back up to the apartment to make it look as though Ed was a third wheel, although I'm sure Calvin felt that way rather than Ed. I unlock the door and invite Calvin inside, he accepts because he forgot his phone. ((hi again, be prepared. reader discretion has been advised)) As soon as we walk inside I'm standing against the wall and I'm involved in a make out session with Ed. Layers are removed almost immediately.

"I think I'll go." Calvin shouts over the awkwardness.

"Bye.". I breathe out while Ed sucks my neck. Thankfully he lets himself out. As soon as the door closes I'm being carried to the bedroom.

(So first off, hope that wasn't to bad. I probably won't write like that for a while. sorry this chapter was kinda short but I'm working my way up to the drama!!! It should start within the next few chapters!! Love you guys!)
