[Taylor]

Having a girlfriend is great and all, but knowing that I'm able to say that Hayley is just that, for me, is...wow. I know, maybe we shouldn't have rushed into it. But I've liked her for a long time. In high school, it wasn't just for her looks. It was also about how she didn't seem to care what everyone else thought of her.  I admired that.

While being totally distracted by a photo I have saved of my girlfriend, I almost don't realize the notification that appears towards the top of my phone screen.

Baylie: Hey, Taylor. Missing you already

I click on the notification, planning on texting her back. But suddenly, I'm totally distracted. Wanna know why? 'Cause that bitch decided that it was a good idea to send me nudes. I nearly choke on air over the unexpected images. Even though I'm completely alone in my apartment, I still glance around the living room as if someone else may see.

Taylor: Baylie. Stop it. I told you. I have a girlfriend.

Baylie: Uh huh, for now lol

God. Why does she have to do this? Yes, okay, fine. I will admit that she is attractive. And that she has a great body. And yeah, the sex with her was great. But when we were together, she also treated me like I was even less than garbage. Our relationship was terrible. The only reason we had even gotten together in the first place was because she had guilted me into making her my girlfriend. Constantly making me feel forced to make our relationship official. The time I spent dating her was possibly the worst six months of my life. I was forced to refer to myself as her boyfriend, refer to her as my girlfriend. Now it makes me sick to my stomach.

Her and I just never had a legitimate connection. Yes, I'm fully aware that I probably sound like a total dick who was just using Baylie for her body. But she was just really annoying if we weren't fucking.

I'm just going to ignore her for as long as possible.

To make a long story short, I was able to get Hayley into taking a trip overseas and I'm very excited for her to arrive. I couldn't wait, I ended up picking a flight for her as soon as possible. Of course, I had checked with her before officially booking the flight, but I made sure to choose one that was soon.

I hope she isn't feeling forced, though. Oh god, what if she doesn't actually really want to come? What if I made her feel bad and now she feels as though she has no choice? I don't want her to feel like that. What if that's what it is? She did seem a little reluctant about coming, but she had also said that she only acted that way because she felt bad that I was going to spend my money on her. That was the case, right?

It better be. I want her to want me just like I want her.

And I want her real bad.
