Castaway (Lady Gaga x Taylor Kinney Fan Fic)

6 - We Could Belong Together

Chapter 6: We Could Belong Together

It was past twelve but the surroundings were quite dim, as expected, Taylor wasn't around. I went to the water and removed my large shirt and practiced floating.

//Fun Fact: I tried to lose weight when I was 15 thinking my weight was the cause why I cannot do floating on water.//

"Damn it. I am sinking! ALL THE TIME!" I splashed and slapped the water.

"You need help?" Taylor asked. I remained quiet and frowned because of annoyance. He removed his shirt and came closer to me. He assisted me and taught me the proper way.

He made me lay down at the surface of the water and his arms would support my leg and back to keep me floating.

"Okay... I'm going to remove my arms slowly..." He said but I always panic when I feel his arms moving away. We would laugh whenever I fail.

"What should I call you anyway? Stefani? Stef? S? Gaga? Or what?" He asked.

"You can call me whatever you want, T." I responded and called him T.

"Okay? So I'll call you, whatever you want? Okay. Whatever you want, let's do it again." He joked and I burst out laughing. Then, we tried again.

95%....96...97....98...99...

God damn it I'm sinking!

I thought and I wrapped my hands around his neck and his arms held me tightly on my legs and back. After the water was settled I opened my eyes and I realized that our faces was so close with one another. I felt a strong feeling across my chest and I knew I wanted to kiss him so I pressed my lips against his slowly until I realized he might get offended. I jerked off and escaped my legs from his arms. I stood up and promptly think of what to say.

"Well... Uh. Sorry. I-I'm sorry... I think I need a rest. Yes." I said nervously and turned back from him heading away from the water. I paused for a couple of seconds before I started walking but as I was about to make my first step, he grabbed my hand and turned me and he crushed his lips against mine and cupped my waist. I was surprised and stunned but I fell to the pits of his kiss and I slowly wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back. After we exchanged kiss, I left a space between our faces and we smiled at each other. We had some steps before we reached the coast.

"We could, we could belong together." He sang, even though he was out of tune. "No." I joked. "He stared at me playfully. "Really?" He asked and we dropped at the sand and we exchanged kisses again.

After a few moments, we settled and watched the sunset again, this time, he was lying on my lap and he was holding and playing my hand.

♪We could, we could belong together...♪ He sang again.

"Stop. I know you don't like my songs." I confronted.
"What?" He questioned.
"You don't like them. When we're on the boat you told me to stop. Huh."

He laughed at me. "I didn't mean it."
"Stop denying. I know it. That's the reason why I hated you." I confessed.
"I'm not denying." He defended and stood up. "You want proof?" He dared. I just stared at him and smiled.

He began to do some clapping and tried to remember something which intrigued me.

"There. I got it. Watch." He said and I watched him carefully.

He did some rhythmic clapping which was familiar to me and he began to sing unsurely.

♪ A-P-L... Oops. No. ♪ A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E... ♪

It was my song "Applause" and he knew the right way of clapping.

"You were listening to me the whole time, aren't you?" I said.
"All the time." He confessed and smiled and continued singing out of tune.

♪ Give me the thing that I love... It's Stefani that I love... ♪ He altered the lyrics and made me blushed.

"Fuck you, T. Sit down." I told him because I can't stop blushing.
