The next morning, Taylor felt a weight lift off her shoulders as she walked into the school cafeteria. She finally wasn't grounded, and the sense of freedom made her smile uncontrollably. Spotting Abigail and Selena at their usual table, she made her way over, her excitement bubbling just under the surface.

As she approached, Abigail noticed her first, her eyes lighting up. "Taylor! You're finally free!"

Taylor grinned, dropping her bag onto the chair beside her. "Yep! Grounding is officially over. I'm a free woman!"

Selena reached across the table to give Taylor's hand a quick squeeze. "That's amazing! You can finally hang out with travis alone."

Taylor felt a warmth spread through her chest. "God it was torture not being able to be with him alone."

They chatted about the usual things, school gossip, upcoming assignments, but there was a certain lightness in the conversation that only comes with being in good company. Taylor laughed more freely, feeling the tension of the past month slipping away.

Just as Taylor was about to bring up her plans for the weekend, Selena's eyes widened as if she had just remembered something important. "Oh my god, guys, you won't believe what I figured out yesterday!"

Abigail perked up immediately, her curiosity piqued. "What? Spill!"

Taylor leaned in too, wanting to know the tea.

Selena lowered her voice, glancing around to make sure no one else was listening. "So, you know how I've been seeing someone, right?"

Abigail nodded eagerly. "Yeah, of course. What about him?"

"Well," Selena continued, a mischievous grin spreading across her face, "I think I finally figured out what his kink is."

The word "kink" made Taylor's stomach flip slightly. She kept her expression neutral, not wanting to reveal her ignorance on the subject. She didn't fully understand what Selena meant, but she wasn't about to ask either. Instead, she made a mental note to look it up later.

Abigail's eyes went wide. "No way! What is it? You have to tell us!"

Selena laughed, shaking her head. "Oh no, that's between me and him. It's our little secret."

Abigail groaned dramatically, clearly dying to know more. "You can't just drop that bombshell and not tell us!"

Taylor forced a laugh, trying to match Abigail's enthusiasm. "Yeah, Selena, don't leave us hanging!"

Selena smirked, enjoying the attention. "Sorry, ladies, but some things are best kept private."

Abigail pouted playfully. "Fine, keep your secrets. But I'm dying of curiosity here!"

As the bell rang, signaling the end of lunch, the girls gathered their things and prepared to head to their next class. Selena was still grinning, clearly pleased with herself, while Abigail kept pestering her for more details.

As they walked down the hallway, Taylor found herself replaying the conversation in her mind. She wondered what Travis's thoughts on the subject might be. Did he have any "kinks"? The thought made her cheeks flush, and she quickly shook her head to clear the thought.

For now, she had to focus on class. The rest would have to wait until later.

As they reached their classroom. The girls quickly took their seats, Taylor settling between Abigail and Selena. But even as the teacher started the lesson, Taylor's mind kept drifting.
