It had been 4 days since Taylor had last seen Travis and she was fine, totally and utterly fine.
In fact she was so fine she hadn't once thought about him or his hot, redhead ex with the big boobs and even bigger pout.
The thought or Travis' beautiful face buried in his exe's cleavage had definitely never crossed her mind and neither had the thought of her elequant, posh voice screaming his name from underneath him whilst he pounded in to her
"Fuck!" Taylor said out loud before looking around, feeling embarrassed by her outburst and shoving half a banana into her mouth to stop any other words escaping
"Rough day?" a guy she vaguely recognized from school stood next to her table, his dark hair spikey and his blue eyes hopeful
"Rough week she sighed"
"I brought you cake!" his tone was like that of a proud child and she took the plate from him and giggled her thanks.
"I'm in your math class by the way, just in case you didn't recognize me" he blurted out and she was suddenly aware of how nervous he was "Can I sit, you can tell me to leave if I bore you I won't be offended"
"You aren't going to want any of my cake are you?" He shook his head whilst informing her he couldn't because he was gluten free "then please, take a seat"
"Rubin by the way... My name, it's Rubin"
"Well Rubin it's nice to meet you, I'm Taylor"
"Yeah I know I um... I know that"
Taylor just looked down at her cake and nodded, aware of where this conversation was headed but happy to go with it for now, Rubin was cute and her confidence was dented, maybe a conversation and a flirt would perk her back up, put her head back where she needed it to be, back on a war footing for 'Taylor Versus The Redhead' need it come to that.
"I have seen you around school with Jason Kelce, are you two a 'thing'"
"No we aren't 'a thing', I mean we dated for a split second but he's.."
"A dick?"
Taylor couldn't help but laugh uncontrollably
"Yeah, he's kind of a dick" she nodded in confirmation "So what about you, girlfriend?"
"Well that would make me a bit of a dick too right? I buy you cake and try to chat you up and all the time I have a girlfriend, that would be lame right?"
"Oh is that what this is?"
"I um... Is that OK?"
"No, actually it's not okay" said a voice from behind them both, it was so dark and so serious both Ruben and Taylor twisted towards it immediately
"Travis!" he stood there in work out gear, hair damp and face flushed, his arms crossed over his wide chest and his face anything but happy
"Who are you?" Asked Ruben looking Travis up and down, annoyed at the sudden interruption, just as his nerves had been fading
"I'm the boyfriend and who the fuck are you, you little weasel?"
"Travis!" Taylor was out of her seat with her hand wrapped around his bicep, pulling him from the table before Ruben could splutter in shock at Travis' insult
"Well, he says the boyfriend Ruben, but he never actually asked me out, did you?" she crossed her arms over her much narrower chest and her frown matched her lovers
"What, are we in kindergarten now? I have to actually say 'will you be my girlfriend' for you to know that you are my girlfriend?"
"Well a little effort might have been nice"
"Well I didn't exactly get the chance when you were jumping my bones every opportunity you had?"
An audible gasp rippled through the Cafe
"What the fuck's going on Taylor?"
"You are making a scene, that's what's going on Trav" she looked around and found every pair of eyes on her and Travis and Ruben was sat gazing up at them, it slowly dawning on him the war zone he had just stumbled into
"So you can't answer my calls or my texts but you can come on a date with this guy?"
"Is not a date, Ruben just brought me some cake"
"I heard him admit to trying to chat you up and by the way Ruben I wouldn't even try sunshine because this girl is more than 2 grown men can handle let alone one little boy like you"
"Travis! Don't talk to him like that!" she slapped Travis' shoulder in annoyance at his arrogance
"You are just doing this to get at me!"
"I'm not doing anything, unlike you, getting in to cars with strange women when apparently you have a girlfriend"
"Oh there it is!"
"Yeah here it goes, how would you feel if you found me like I found you with my ex?"
"We have talked about this Taylor" Travis' voice softened as he looked into the face of his girlfriend, her hurt still visible "I made a mistake, I'm sorry for it but you have to let me make it up to you"
"Oh I have to do I?" her hands slipped to her hips
"Well are you dumping me?"
"... No"
"So you just plan on crucifying me for this then, is there a time limit on this crucifixion or is it just a case of punish Travis until you feel better? Because if it is..." he stepped closer and lifted her chin so he had her complete attention "If you want to feel better Taylor, there are other ways I can do that for you"
"Ew guys!"
"Shut up Ruben" Travis' face never turned from Taylors
"Taylor he's trying to get into your pants in the middle of a Cafe and everyone is watching it
"Shut up Ruben!" Taylor lifted her hand to the string of Travis' black ' Champion' hoody and tangled it around her finger "So what exactly did you have in mind?" her voice was low as mothers tutted loudly and shielded their children's eyes from the scene unfolding in front of them
"Well..." he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled their hips tightly together "I know this place, just you, me and the sea" he dropped his head into the crook of her neck and began nibbling as she began giggling "You bring the bikini I will bring the whipped cream"
Just one mention of a bikini and cream and Taylors lips were on his as her hands dropped into the back pockets of his black shorts
"When?" she panted against his lips
"Give me an hour to pick up supplies and I'm all yours" he dropped two gentle kisses to her lips before she grabbed his face and deepened the kiss into something hotter, something dripping with desire
"Travis?"
"Yes?"
"Keep the hairband, it's so hot"
"Hairband yes, clothes no" he winked at her and then turned and winked at Ruben, laughing out loud at the look of shock on the younger man's face.
Dropping his head to Rubens ear he whispered "I just saved you from a close call, she would have eaten you alive kid" he patted him on the shoulder and then walked out leaving Taylor stood in the middle of a very silent Northern Soul Coffee Cafe
