TAYLOR'S POV
Carl and I just wandered around the neighbourhood, talking about random shit.

"Are you still doing cheer? I mean, cause of the accident.." Carl asked me, I nodded.

"But I need to wait a month so I can totally recover. It's stupid." I answered, loosely lacing my fingers around his. We'd walked from my side of the neighbourhood to Carl's side, and the difference between the houses was incredible. Everyone knew not to rob from my side, simple as that. No crimes go on in our half, actually.

"We can go to my place? Or break some shit, I dunno." Carl suggested, being hopeless.

"Can I smoke at your house? I haven't been able to since the accident." I quickly asked, sounding quite excited and also pathetic.

"Taylor, you're lucky if you find a room that doesn't stink of cigarettes." Carl laughed, leading me towards his house.

CARL'S POV
Taylor and I just sat in my backyard, on the porch. She accepted the joint I'd rolled her and she lit it, before handing me back my lighter so I could light my own. I had no idea if anyone was home and I hoped nobody was, I didn't want them bombarding Taylor with questions.

"You okay?" she asked me, before taking a drag.

"Wh-- yeah. Why?" I stuttered. She giggled, grabbing my hand.

"You've been staring into space for about five minutes." she told me, before kissing my cheek quickly.

"That's it?" I smirked, turning round and kissing her heavily, my tongue begging for entrance. She accepted, and our tongues danced as I held her face as close to mine as I could. Her mouth tasted of coffee and weed, a weird combination but it was oddly comforting. As we were kissing, I heard the door to the porch open and someone scream. We quickly pulled apart, to see a startled Lip standing by the open door.

"Oh my god, guys, at least let us know you're gonna be making out on the porch." he muttered, before sipping his coffee and looking out to the street.

"Missed you too." Taylor said jokingly, making Lip look back at us, confused for a moment.

"Oh, you're home from hospital! I've been at college, s--" he began, trying to explain, Taylor stood up and hugged him, and he happily hugged back.
