Travis Pov

I had immediately known it was her when I heard her voice. My little Daisy, my best friend. She looked so beautiful and not a day older since I had last seen her.

She had her hair curly again, like when we were children and her  eyes sparkled with the same intensity and just livelihood as they had growing up with her. The last time we had seen each other properly had been years and years ago, we had lost each other in life after our incident with 18 but this time 12 years later, it finally felt like we could start over, forget whatever bad blood there may have been.

As she talked about her life I drunk her in, the sound of her gentle voice, the golden shine of her curls , the ring of her soft laugh and she gleam of her aquamarine blue eyes. She had truly only become more beautiful over the years and part of me ached as I thought about all those years I hadn't seen her.

But it had had to distance myself after the events after our graduation and the next time I had seen her she had been at this Jakeholes side and I had talked myself into believing that it would be for the better if we didn't see each other from there on.

Now, after hearing what that person had done to my Daisy all I wanted to do was show him what the fuck he missed and how big of a fucking asshole he was. Taylor was gorgeous, smart kind and wonderful and I couldn't fathom why anyone who was lucky enough to be with her would let her go, ever.

"but enough about my sad little love life, how are you?" Taylor asked propping herself up on her hand , those beautiful aquamarine eyes blinking with curiosity and god I knew it was wrong but my instinct to kiss her, taste those beautiful lips again grew stronger.

"you promised Travis" Taylor whined, as she let herself flop back onto my bed , a pout on her lips as she frowned at me. I sighed softly shaking my head.

"Daisy I don't even know why you want me to do it, didn't Charlie ask you out for next week?"

It was the night before Taylors 13th birthday and we had gotten permission from our parents to have a sleepover tonight so we could be together when the clock turned and she officially became a teenager and as always we were barricaded in my room.

At this point it was more like Taylors room. She had decorated it, had her own little reading armchair next to my gaming chair and put pillows into the windowsill so she could sit there and watch the leaves fall, turning into the snowflakes that were now falling from the sky.

"but Travis you promised, when we turn 13 and it hasn't happened, you promised." Taylor whined again, getting onto her knees as she pulled me closer and I let myself sit on the edge of the bed as she sat on her knees up next to me, her knees against me as she made her best puppy eyes.

"but what about Charlie? I'm sure he's going to do t, he's crazy about you and you might regret it after and things could be weird." I sighed before looking at her and god those eyes always worked their magic on me.

"Travis... I'm nervous a-and I'm scared, I don't want my first time to be terrible or with some guy I'm not even sure I wanna keep going out with. You're my best friend and I trust you. With you  feel safe and I feel good and I want it to be something I wont forget and we will be in each other's life forever."

Her tone was soft as when her hand caressed over my shoulder I just had to meet her eyes gain and she shifted closer, gently running her hand over my back as she did so, drawing little patterns onto my shoulders as she did so.

"you pinky promised" she pouted shifting closer to me until her face was only a few inches from mine as she did and those beautiful eyes flickered down to my lips.

"okay fine" I gave in and she grinned her oh so charming smile.

Soon enough midnight rolled around and the more nervous I got,  I sighed, moving my hand up to cup her face gently, while a wide grin spread over Taylors lips in success.

"are you sure?"  murmured , softly stroking my thumb over her cheek, her soft skin gliding under my finger like silk.

"I'm sure" Taylor whispered quietly , dropping her hand from my shoulder and sliding it onto my chest.

"ready?"

"ready"

With that I leant in and connected our lips in a soft kiss, our first kiss , a kiss we would forever share. Her lips were soft and plump like pillows, the faint taste of cinnamon on them that drove me insane and like an addict as soon as we parted I wanted , I had to taste them again.

"pinky promise this wont change anything" Taylor whispered against my lips and I only managed to nod before her lips were back on mine and she shifted closer , wrapping her arms around my neck

"I've been okay, I mostly focused on career until lately and I work n a bank in a pretty nice position so I cant complain. Got a nice apartment in the city and a little house outside and yeah like I said before I cant complain about anything."

Taylor smiled and nodded as she listened and god that smile of hers, it was a wonder I hadn't passed out yet. "what do you mean by until lately?" she asked curiously , propping herself up on her hand as she sipped her coffee, a cute little white foam beard left on her upper lip and I couldn't help but reach forward and carefully graze my thumb over them , feeling them beneath my finger just like the last time I had tasted them, 12 years ago.

"well you know, I just turned 30 so I just feel like I'm ready for something now... not even relationship wise, I have enough stories with that , but you know the big ol 30 makes you think. My parents had Jason and I by the time they were 25 and He now also has 2 adorable little girls with his wife.. I'm not sure where I stand in all of that but I do know that I want a kid soonish, especially when I look at Wyatt and Eliott , god the baby fever I'm telling you."

Taylor giggled as she watched the little video I showed her , doting upon the sight of my nieces and I couldn't blame her. A little ding went off from her phone, the heart icon hinting at a ovulation app.

"how would you feel about coming back home with me?"
