It had been a week since Taylor had last seen Travis. Her life had been a total mess. Since Joe didn't show up she knew they were over. She had picked up Ben from her mother and brought him home. Ever since she had agreed to Travis arrangement she couldn't stop thinking about it, especially since no matter how hard she tried , her vibrator she had stored in her nightstand for after Joe fell asleep couldn't replace the feeling of Travis inside of her, fucking her until her voice was hoarse and her legs shook.

But she also knew he and feelings for her and she hadn't looked at him like tht ever since college. She had had the biggest crush on him and the night before he went off to Detroit she had even kissed him.

But then he went away and Joe had asked her out, something she had waited for Travis to do the past year and he never had so she went out with Joe and he had been wonderful to her.

He had opened the car door for her, held her hand and told her she was beautiful. She hadn't immediately been in love but with time she had learned to do so and when she had learned she was pregnant with Ben it all seemed so perfect. She had even taken his last name to please him, had cleaned the house, let him sleep with her whenever he needed it and taken care of Ben almost by herself only to be cheated on and left alone in a bar by him.

Sure she had spent the night screaming another mans name and joe wasn't even slightly near her thoughts until she had woken up the next morning with a massive headache, which was ironic cause that's what he was to her at this point.

He hadn't even tried to reach out or pick up his son to see him once so Ben was asking for his Daddy and Taylor was wishing none of this had ever happened. She wished she could go back to the way it was when she first had Ben. How attentive joe had been. How in love with her he was. Was it her fault? Why could she never keep a man by her side? Why did she always have to scare away men?

She sighed and rubbed her temples recognizing the signs of an incoming migraine. There were only two things that made those go away, a good nap and orgasms and neither were really an option. She had to do so much stuff so she couldn't sleep and well ever since Travis her hands didn't do the trick anymore. She had done just fine when she was still seeing Joe. She'd just sneak off to the bathroom , pretend to shower and fingered herself in the shower.

But now she couldn't do that anymore either. there was only one option left and as much as she didn't feel ready for it she knew she wouldn't regret it afterwards. So she took out her phone after she had out Ben to bed for his afternoon nap before texting Travis.

TSwizzle: Can u come pick me up in 30? I called the babysitter and I need to release some tension. Theres a hotel nearby, shower before.

El Travador: You know the drill sweetheart, ill take you out to dinner than u get the desert

She contemplated for a moment before she sighed giving in. She hadn't eaten yet anyways and even if he took her out it didn't have to be a date right? She had found a loophole.

TSwizzle: Fine, pick me up in 30 and pick a nice place

She put on a pair on lacy lavender underwear, her favorit even if joe always said she looked like his grandmas sewing kit with it and decided not to straighten her hair. This was NOT a date. She slipped into a pair of flats and smoothed over her hair , putting on some lipbalm and curling her lashes when the bell rang already. She slipped out of the bath and opened the door, a surprised gasp slipping from her when she was met with a gorgeous bouquet of flowers.

They were her favorite color and smelled amazingly. Behind them stood Travis , in a pair of fancy slacks and a nice button up , looking so handsome he could have hopped right out of one of her cliché romance novel she loved to read. Joe would always roll his eyes when she told him about them saying she should work on enlarging her horizon and getting smarter than to read that garbage for desperate old women who didn't get any. Well too bad since she didn't get any orgasms either.

She was still starstruck as he moved, scratching the back of his neck , blushing lightly "I hope you like these? They're lavender which is your favorite and I saw them and immediately thought yk they're almost as beautiful as Taylor but they had carnations in them and I know you don't like them as much so I had them replace them with roses? I hope that's okay with you? If not I can pick up others next time or I can just go again and pick up other ones?" he stammered and she couldn't help herself but smile tiredly , feeling her migraine again. It was adorable how nervous he was.

"They're beautiful, I love them thank u so much" she smiled taking them from him and leading him in to put the flowers into a nice vase. He followed closely, closing the door behind him and taking off his shoes. When he entered the kitchen after her she could literally feel goosebumps erupting all over her skin. God what his sheer presence did to her.

"how was your day?" he asked leaning against the counter as he watched her fill the vase with water and the powdery stuff the florist had stuck into the bouquet.

"oh you know, Ben woke up at 4am and refused to go back to sleep, the dishwasher broke and the company to fix it will take at least 2 weeks, the kindergarten I enrolled him in will only take him in a week so I had to get a babysitter for the night, all of my job applications got declined cause apparently no one wants to hire a 26-year-old single mother that needs full flexibility, then Joe postponed the last counseling appointment and I had to make three new ones cause we gotta figure out who takes Ben when, if he even wants to cause he managed wonderfully to no show this week, I been slipping in and out of migraines and- your on your phone amazing"

She huffed putting the vase down with a loud clonk. "wow really Travis? I know it's a lot but I thought if someone would listen to me it would be my best friend-" before she could finish Travis wrapped his arm around her and pressed his lips to hers swallowing her complaints.

She immediately kissed back , a bit pissed now but even needier. When they pulled apart theyre breaths were shallow and heaved with lust.

"I was listening Taylor that's why I was on my phone. I was texting my friend who owns the Belladonna downtown. I reserved a table earlier for us and was canceling it now" Taylor forehead furrowed as she rose her brows "so now that you know I'm not an easy lay you're gonna cancel dinner."

Before she knew what was happening she got pushed against the wall, his hand on her throat. Not enough to hurt her by any means but enough to get her to shut up while he leaned in and growled into her ear. "We both know you're as desperate for my dick as you are for me to make you scream my name but that's not what this is about" he leaned back slightly now talking in his normal sweet tone, his hold on her throat loosening till it was merely a gentle graze.

"I'm canceling cause you are clearly tired and not allowing yourself the break you need. You don't need to be fucked , you need to sleep Taylor, so please cancel the babysitter, you know Uncle Travis can handle Ben perfectly fine. Go lay down and sleep and when you wake up we'll see what you still wanna do then. I know that face and that means you're getting a migraine and sleep is the best thing against it , sex is just second. I'm not your scumback of an ex babygirl, I can take care of your son without demanding praise for babysitting and I like doing it too, haven't see the little tiger in forever."

Before Taylor could protest they heard little taps, a clear sign Ben was about to enter. Travis dropped his hand immediately crouching down to the height of Taylors son.

"Uncle Travy??" he asked sleepily, but still excited to see him, running to him while his little bunny stuffy slid after him on the floor. Travis scooped him up and twirled him around grinning while Taylor watched. "hey buddy, how about we have a boys night and I'll show you some of my ultra secret tricks hm? Mommy's feeling very tired and you know what helps when you're tired?" he asked immediately switching into the bighearted bear of a man he became around children.

Taylor could feel her heart skip seeing the way Travis treated her son. Not even his own dad did that stuff. "Sleep!" Ben answered pointing to Taylor who mustered up a smile, coming to kiss his cheeks stroking it adoringly before getting on her toes whispering into Travis ear "thank you" before quickly kissing his cheek and going over to her bedroom. It wasn't in the slightest the night she had hoped for. it was so much better. Maybe she really couldn't ignore the way her heart spead up around him, even tho she had managed successfully the past years. Damn you Kelce.
