Rule Breakers- A Tayvis story

Six

Taylor POV

You know when you are growing to like someone and then they say your name and those feelings just get stronger, yeah well that's what is happening to me now. I didn't realize that Travis saying my name would have the affect on me that it did but i don't regret asking him to say it and i am looking forward to anytime he has to talk to me. 

I get under my covers and get comfortable in bed realizing that it is now a big problem that i like Travis especially if he is going to be nice all the time. I couldn't tell anyone and i had to find a way to stop the feelings before they develop into anything else, him being incredibly good looking doesn't really help with that though. 

I wake up and quickly have a shower and get ready for the day before heading down the stairs, being met with Travis standing in my kitchen cooking breakfast 

"Good morning" i announce my presence and he spins around with a smile on his face 

"Good morning Taylor" He replies 

How on earth am i meant to stop myself from having feelings for this man when he is going to act like this from now on. I already started to like him when he was being a dick so it will only get worse now he is being nice 

"What are you doing?" I ask as i walk closer to him 

"Making breakfast, i didn't know what you liked so i am making my favourite" He explains continuing to cook what seems to be French toast 

"You didn't have to do that" I mention honestly, not wanting him to feel obligated 

"I know, but i had no work this morning while i was waiting for you to wake up so i thought it would be nice for" He explained 

"Well thank you"

"You're very welcome, i did want to talk to you about the trip you wanted to plan to Rhode Island" He mentioned and i hummed in response for him to continue 

"When did you want to go, I was thinking if you wanted next week could maybe work" He offered and i nodded 

"Yeah i haven't been there in a while, some of the girls i had invited can't make it anymore" I told him 

"Well i am more than happy for when ever you want to go"

"I take it you are still tagging along?" I ask knowing the answer i was going to get 

"Yeah of course, you can't get rid of me" He laughed back and suddenly that didn't seem too bad

I don't exactly know what was the turning point for me from going from Travis is an ass to i don't mind Travis' company but i wasn't too sure whether i liked that it happened or not. On one hand i was glad that i enjoyed being around him and we didn't have to argue everyday anymore but on the other hand i knew that their was zero chance that Travis had the same feelings towards me that i had for him and also that even if he somehow did it could never go anywhere. It was against the rules. 

"Breakfast time" Travis called me from my thoughts, pulling me back to reality 

I moved from where i was standing in the kitchen and moved to take a seat across from Travis at the dining table. 

"Thank you" I say again thankful the meal that was now sitting in front of me 

"You're very welcome" 

I moved my hand to grab my glass of water that sat in the middle of the table, my hand instantly stopping when i feel Travis hand swipe against mine, his stopping too. 

I lift my eyes to meet his gaze and i'm surprised to see he is already looking at me, neither of us bother to move our hands that are now sat on the the table touching the others, i am unsure why he hasn't oved his hand but i knew that i would not dare to move mine even an inch. If this is the only time that i happed to touch Travis i had no intention of cutting the time short. 

"We can't let this happen" Travis whispers in a low voice 

"I know"

"I need this job" 

"I know"

"Taylor" 

"Travis" 

"Please, it's against the rules" Travis once again whispers 

"We can break them" I mumble back 

"I don't want to move my hand" He honestly confesses 

"I never asked you to"

I quickly lower my eyes to see he has now slightly oved one finger to brush back and forth over my hand, i lift my eyes back up to meet his once again. I wish i could figure out the expression on his face, he looked sad, surprised, happy, and confused all at the same time and i don't know what it means 

"I'm sorry" I blurt out quickly pulling my hand back, losing the confidence i had just before and now suddenly feeling bad that i potentially made him uncomfortable 

"Don't apologize" 

Instead of responding i get up and quickly put my plate on the bench no longer having the appetite that i did before. Once my plate is on the kitchen counter i hurry up to my bedroom feeling completely embarrassed with myself. Not realizing that Travis must have been following me the whole time i turn around once i get into my room to see him standing at my door way looking into my room. 

"I'm sorry, I'm stupid for thinking you would feel the same and i do" I blurt out 

"Taylor take a breath" Travis says calmly 

"I can promise you that i feel the same but i really need this job and i cant lose it Taylor" 

"I know  i'm sorry"

"Don't say sorry, it isn't your fault. I would love nothing more thank to get to know you personally." He admit causing me to smile 

"We could do that" I nod my head slowly 

"We can beautiful" My cheeks heat up as a result of his comment 

"Okay" i reply and he agrees

We both know that this can go no where beyond a good friendship but at least maybe we could be friends all while he keeps this job. I had hope but i was also scared out of my mind.
