Under The Covers (completed)

Hide and Seek

Location: Miles' parents house

Miles wakes up to the constant ringing of the doorbell. It takes him a while to work out where he is as he hasn't been here in ages. The doorbell continues to ring as Miles rubs his sleepy eyes.

Miles: Fuck off salesman, we don't want double glazing

Miles get frustrated and storms down the stairs thinking it will be just a salesman but no. He pulls open the door in rage and instead of a young man with a clipboard, it's Taylor staring back at him.

Taylor: Hello Miles, you just woken up?

Miles: Yeah I did, I wonder why!

Taylor: Yeah sorry about that but in fact it's an emergency

Miles: Why? What happened?? Is it Alex!?

Taylor: Unfortunately yes; he's gone missing. I've checked his apartment and everything.

Miles: OH MY GOD! Why didn't you just call me!? You travelled all this way using up valuable time. I don't understand! It's so not like him to just disappear.

Taylor: Miles, Miles calm down, don't worry we'll find him.

Miles: Have you told the police?

Taylor: Yes, but we need to look for him as well. Come on let's go.

Location: In Taylor's Car driving to London

Miles: Rev it Taylor, Rev it!

Taylor: I'm going as fast as I can in this old car

Miles: More like a hipster car. Where the hell are we going anyway??

Taylor: To your apartment duh, surely that would be the first place he would go. Wait... Why doesn't he live with you?

Miles: Well, nothing would look more suspicious than Alex's 'best friend' going to his apartment all the time and not coming out for ages.

Taylor: True

Miles: I don't know, I hope one day we can come out to the world and live together

Taylor at this moment gives Miles the side eye as he is lost in his thoughts, she knows full well that her plan will let that happen but only on her terms.

Location: Miles London Apartment

Both Taylor and Miles finally arrive at miles apartment

It's dark and dingy with mess all around, it's pretty obvious that Alex isn't here but Taylor persisted that they look anyway. She tells Miles to look in the main bedroom while she checks the study area. As Miles walks into the bedroom disappearing from site Taylor quickly locks the door with the key Miles gave her and puts it her bra. Taylor then walks into the bedroom where Miles is.

Taylor: No where to be seen

Miles: Same here. Oh my god where the hell is he!? We're due to perform as The Last Shadow Puppets on Saturday which is in two days!

Taylor: Look, don't worry we'll find him

Taylor walks closer towards Miles going to console him. She puts her hand on his shoulder while looking deep into his eyes.

Miles: Thank you Taylor, you're such a good person helping me look for him

Taylor caresses his cheek and Miles is in too deep of a thought to think anything of it.

Taylor: 'Come on let's have a drink' she suggested while pulling Miles' hand towards the kitchen

A few hours later Miles is drunk with sadness, wine and tequila shots. Taylor equally as drunk sets up her phone stereo and starts playing Miracle Aligner. They both start slow dancing with each other, for Miles it's just a friendly get together while having fun but for Taylor it's much more romantic.

Taylor: You're Bi Miles aren't you?

Miles: What? No

Taylor: Don't lie to me, I know. You see our company has to do research on our customers so that we don't get into any danger. Judging by the private social media accounts you have away from Alex's knowledge you don't only like guys. That's why you're never the one to be with the 'cover up' girl because you know you may develop feelings for her.

Miles: OK, I'm Bi, you got me but I would never ever ever cheat on Alex just for some girl.

Taylor: See that's where you're wrong

Taylor unexpectedly goes into kiss Miles taking him back. He quickly blokes her move.

Miles: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?

Taylor: 'Oh come on Miles, you know you want me' she says while placing her arms gently over both shoulders.

Miles then jerks her arms of him and runs to the front door but it's locked.

Miles: GIVE ME THE KEY NOW!

Taylor: 'No' she smiles while dangling the keys in air.

Miles runs over to her and tries to grab the keys but Taylor is too quick and grabs Miles. She pulls him into the bedroom throwing him onto the bed.

Taylor: Seeing as you don't fancy me it looks like I have no choice but to keep you in here until you change your mind.

Miles: I WILL NEVER! TELL ME WHERE ALEX IS, I KNOW YOU KNOW

Taylor: 'No need to shout my dear, Alex is just fine' she says as she handcuffs Miles to bed

Taylor: Bye now my love

Taylor waves bye to the sobbing and angry Miles, he's too exhausted and drunk to put up a fight and anyway; he's tied up.

Location: Alex's London Apartment

Back at Alex's apartment, Alex wakes up drowsy from his nap still tied up exhausted from the struggle and fight he had with Taylor. It has been a few hours since that ordeal and Alex starts to sob at the thought of what Miles might be going through. As he comes to his senses he looks around looking for any sign of escape but nothing; he would have to cut these hand cuffs off anyway. Still tired he tilts his head to the bed side table when suddenly he remembers something!

Alex: YES! He shouts pulling a cloth off with his mouth stretching as hard as he can

Alex: IM SAVED
