How I Met Your Father: Taylor Caniff

four

"Taylor, can I talk to you about something?" I ask him and pull him aside after everyone went to there hotel room.

"what's up, Lauren?"

"Uh... so... what do I need to pack?" I didn't want to ask my real question,

"Well we are going to Hawaii and Florida, then Texas so warm stuff!" He smiled and said goodnight. I gave him a hug and walked to my bed.

-----

When I woke up I got an idea to get Taylor and I get to know each other before we left for a week before Magcon. Aaron thinks I like him but I don't. Maybe I should make Taylor
jealous? no.

I grabbed my phone and texted him

Lauren- Good morning sunshine! Breakfast?

i got a instant reply.

Taylor- Good morning! Sure!

Lauren- 10?

Taylor- yeah! meet at the lobby!

I got up out of bed and ran to the bathroom and took a fast shower and put a white romper on with brown sandals. I put my wet hair in a messy bun and put some mascara on.

I grabbed my purse and keys and ran to the elevator in a hurry because it was almost ten. I didn't want to be late to our first "date."

it wasn't a date but I want it to be...

Taylor's POV

I don't know what Lauren is trying to do but I've never been interested in blondes. like I mean she's cute and sweet and funny and all but like I don't really think I like her. Maybe this thing would bring us closer as friends.

Kelsey and I were kind of a thing.

Kelsey is my girl from home. Sweet and cute. I met her at the meet and greet. I had to tell Lauren about it and be a good friend.

I walked down the hall and watched her struggle trying not to be late.

"Lauren, calm down. It's okay." I helped her get into the elevator.

"Where too?" i ask her.

"I...I was thinking Bob Evans." She told me.

"Stop stuttering." I told her. She looked so nervous. It was quite cute but I couldn't say anything considering I was talking to Kelsey and I didn't like her that way.

We were just talking about life together on the walk to the restaurant. When we got seated and ordered our drinks I decided to tell her about Kelsey.

"So Lauren, I really need to tell you something." I begin.

"Yes"

Lauren's POV

"Yes" I say.

I was so nervous to hear what he was going to say.

"I want to be friends with you."

Friends. Friends? Friends.

"uh, yeah. sounds good." I was a bit heart broken. I knew I couldn't get him.

"I have to focus on Magcon and I have been talking to a girl named Kelsey so I just wanted to let you know before things get serious." he explained.

"Yeah no problem. Friends is great. I'll be back. I got to use the restroom." I say and get up to go refresh myself after what I had just heard. Why did I even try?

I'm too ugly anyway.

He doesn't like me.

I mean Joesef and I have been talking for awhile so maybe I could make him jealous.

Or not.

I'll just be his friend.

Suffer?

What should I do?

I walked back out to Taylor.

"You okay?" He asks.

"Perfect. Thank you."

"I ordered Pancakes for us. I figured it would be a good thing for us and it was cheap." I smiled and thanked him again.

I didn't eat much. I can't wait to go home for awhile to get away from the guys and just start over with them.
