Now what? (T.C)

3.6

Tea's pov.

"Would a baby be able to do this?" Matt picked me and carried me to the grass.

"Matty, the door." I pointed.

He ran and closed it.

I giggled. He's so cute.

"Okay let's go." I sighed.

Matt knocked on the door.

No answer.

"Try again?" Hayes said.

He knocked harder.

Still nothing.

I grabbed the knob and twisted.

It opened.

"Alright. Grab as much clothes for them as you can. I'll be upstairs." I walked up the stairs.

I opened their bedroom door.

"Where's a suitcase?" I said to myself.

Finding it in the closet, I started throwing clothes in.

Taylor's pov. (While all above went on.)

Vanessa ran out the door.

"Whore." I cursed under my breath.

I went back inside, waiting for my pizza to show up.

I sat on the couch and watched tv when the doorbell rung.

I jumped up, paid for the pizza and carried it into the kitchen.

"Vanessa! Pizzas here." I said.

There was no answer.

"Hey babe! Foods here." I tried again.

I didn't want to wake the babies, so I went into the other room.

"Vanessa?"

Nothing.

"Hello?" My voice echoed.

I went upstairs.

"Babe?" I checked all the rooms.

"Vanessa."

"Babe where are you?"

My voice echoed.

All that I could hear was the tv and the little noise the babies made.

"Oh, fuck." I fell to the couch.

My head was in my hands.

"She's gone." I whispered.

I felt tears form in my eyes.

"She's gone. And it's my fault."

My hands formed fists and my face got warm.

"My fault." I repeated.

I stood up and threw the nearest object across the room.

Hearing a shader, I checked what it was.

"Fuck." I picked up the frame.

"I remember that day."

I sat on the floor, next to the pile of broken glass, frame in hand.

It was a picture of Vanessa and I, hanging out the night I asked her out.

**********FLASHBACK*********

I smiled at how childish Tea and Vanessa ran around in the water.

Matt was laughing and I guess I was too.

"Come on Taylor! It's so warm!" Vanessa called.

"Nah! I'm happy right here." I yelled back.

"Oh Matty." Tea came out of the water.

"What?" He looked like he was ready to run if Tea got any closer.

"Come in the water! It's really really warm." She got down on her knees and bagged.

"I'll go in the water........ If Taylor asks out Vanessa!" Matt smirked.

"Wait what?" I asked.

"Oh come on Taylor! We all know that you both really like each other and you should just man up!" Tea joined in.

"I don't like her." I was probably blushing, which I don't do often.

"You've got that smirk on your face like Matt has when he's looking at me, you sooooooooo like her." Tea laughed.

"How should I? I don't want to mess it up. She's not like any other girl." I slowly faded out.

"Ask her if she wants to go to the movies and if it'd make you feel better, we can be there but you wont see us." Matt said.

"Yeah right! Tea would so talk to her and I'd just be there-."

Vanessa came over to us.

"What? You both too chicken to come swim? It was your idea Matthew." She grabbed a towel.

"Do it Caniff." Tea playfully punched me.

I took a deep breath and got out of my chair.

"Vanessa, I was wondering if you wanted to go to the movies or something with me tomorrow." I was so nervous.

"With like Tea?" She asked.

"No, uhm just us." I stuttered.

She raised her eyebrows at me.

Fuck I'm so stupid!

Vanessa's frown turned into a smile.

"I'd love to Taylor." She threw her arms around me.

I hugged her so tight right there.

"Awe! Such a cute picture!" Tea laughed.

*****END OF FLASHBACK*****

Her smile was so bright.

What did I do?

I dropped the picture on the floor as my body gave out.

I laid there, unsure of what I should do.

I could try calling her. I reached for my phone, but remembered she didn't grab hers.

She's at Tea's I bet. I could grab the kids and go there.

No. Tea'll kill me on the spot.

I got up.

It's been 30 minutes since she left.

I'm sure Tea is half way here, so I'll help her out.

I stood and ever so quietly, I went into the babies' room.

Trying not to wake them, I packed diapers, clothes and blankets for both.

I left there and put some bottles into a cooler so she could take them.

I felt a tear fall down my cheek.

"Shit. I don't want to be here." I thought of where I could go without physically leaving them alone.

I grabbed the baby monitor and headed for the guest house.

I'd wait there and listen for Tea to come.

surprise update! People asked, I thought I'd be nice before I leave.
