"Common let's try and sneak out the back," Karlie said putting a supportive arm over a very drunk Taylor.

The singer drunkenly nodded, fully trusting her girlfriend's authoritative decisions.

"Is she ok?" Derek asked joining their side, taking a break from the small get together he was having at his home.

"Yeah I think we should leave early though," Karlie replied.

"I didn't even see her drink that much," Derek responded as if Taylor wasn't there, which, she pretty much wasn't.

Karlie tightened her grip on a swaying Taylor. "We may have had a glass or two before you texted me to come over."

"Well then that would make sense," Derek replied nodding.

"I think we're going to try and go out the back," Karlie said.

"That's probably smart. There are paps already around the car out there."

Karlie shook her head. This was going to be more difficult than she thought.

"Can the car get back there?"

Derek thought for a second, "I don't think so. You would have to meet it on the curb."

"That's risky," Karlie frowned.

"I know...." Derek said contemplating options. "Hey so I know this is kinda a crazy idea but what if you just take a cab?"

Karlie's frown intensified.

"Oh common, it could work. They are expecting you to be by the car so if you go out the back and get the first cab no one will notice a thing."

Karlie thought it over for a moment before Taylor put her face in the crook of Karlie's neck and let out a drunken groan.

"Ok ok, let fucking do it," Karlie said hastily opening the door and walking with Taylor, Derek behind them.

Karlie knew this wasn't the smartest idea, Taylor was meant to have security with her at times like this. But the flashing lights from the paps would most certainly daze an already drunk Taylor. The model didn't want to wake up to headlines about the singer being so drunk she couldn't make it from the building to the car and Taylor stressing out for days maybe even weeks about how fix it.

"I'll hale a cab then you guys come out and get in. I'll let you know if I see any paps."

Karlie nodded, approving of the plan. Taylor slumped against Karlie's body, distributing all of her dead weight they her drunken legs couldn't carry.

"We're going to be home soon baby," Karlie said holding tight to Taylor. The singer wrapped loose arms around the taller girl's waist. Taylor turned her head so her face faced Karlie's neck.

"I love you," she mumbled.

Karlie knew that Taylor was drunk and just babbling but those three words still made the model's heart beat so fast.

"I want to date you forever," Taylor said, with a sleepy and drunk voice.

Karlie swore her heart stopped for a second before it went into hyper drive. She had never really thought about it before but now that she was with Taylor she couldn't see her life without the singer. Sure it was crazy; they had only been dating for 6 months. But, all Karlie thought about was Taylor. She couldn't have enough. So when the singer talks about them being together forever... Karlie's heart can't help but melt and leap for joy at the same time. Karlie knew this wasn't the time to have this conversation though so instead she decided to place a tender kiss to the top of Taylor's head.
