The Cover Up

Chapter Ten

Alaina's P.O.V.

I wake up on Taylor's chest. He has his arm loosely around my waist. I blush a little because I haven't known him for very long and then I end up sleeping in the same bed with him and he doesn't have a shirt on. His hair is messy and over his face. I smile a little because he looks so cute. He moves a little and pulls me closer to him. I don't think he knows he did, but it gives me butterflies. I look at the clock and it reads 4:58. Great that means it's going to go off in two minutes. I try to get out of his grasps to turn off the alarm clock, but I can't get free. "I give up." I say in a whisper.

"You should never give up." I hear Taylor say.

"You're awake?" I ask and his eyes are still closed. Beep, Beep, Beep. I hear the alarm go off. Taylor pops up and turns it off and lays back in my bed.

"Yes, but I don't want to be." He says and looks up at me because I sat up. "I did an extra workout yesterday, so I'm skipping it today." He says still looking at me.

"Why are you so cute?" I ask and laugh at his reaction.

"I'm not. I'm manly and handsome." He says running his hands through his hair which doesn't help him look any less cute.

"If that's what you want to believe," I say and smile at him. Then there's a knock at the door.  Taylor sits up and groans. I get up and open the door. Trinity.

"Hey, what's up?" I ask and rub my eyes, but when I bring my hands up Trinity gasps. "What?" I ask and don't move.

"What happened to your hands?" She says and grabs one.

"I kinda started punching the brick wall," I say and she looks up at me concerned.

"Why?" She asks still concerned. 

"I'll tell you everything when we hang out," I say and she looks at me surprised.

"Everything?" She asks sounding excited and still surprised.

"Ya." I say and mock her girly tone.

"Ok, I'm going to grab you at 8:00." She says and looks at Taylor. She raises her eyebrows at me.

"No. Would you just go." I say and she laughs. I push her out and close the door shaking my head. Taylor mimics what Trinity did with her eyebrows. I gasp a little and hit him in the arm.

"I was joking jezzes." He says rubbing his arm.

Then I remember his friend or a person that messaged him. "Oh, your friend Sebastian I think that was his name, he messaged you saying something about having info." I say and Taylor's face drops.

"Oh, he's not really a friend more of an acquaintance." He says and grabs his phone. He messages something back but then turns to me. "Let's go through your music." He says and walks over to the desk. I follow him and unplug my phone. Once I turn it on it's like my old one except everything isn't organized how I like. I'll organize it later. I walk back to my bed and find my music app. Taylor sits down next to me.

"I have a lot of music and some of its country so this might take a while," I say and he shrugs his shoulders. I click random and the first song that comes on is She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5. Taylor grabs my pillow and puts it against the wooden headboard and leans on it. I close my eyes to just listen, but Taylor pulls me. I end up in between his legs leaning on his chest. It's actually comfortable.

We don't move until I see the clock say 7:30. "I'm going to get ready to hang out with Trinity," I say and turn my head to look at him. He smiles at me and then kisses me. I still get those butterflies, but I think I'm getting used to them. I pull away and smile at him, he grins back at me. We both get out of my bed and grab our clothes. Taylor and I walk into our bathrooms at the same time. I smile remembering him kissing me and hop in the shower.
