Taylor's POV
I walked into the kitchen just to be drawn back to the front door because of the doorbell. I walked to the doorway and opened the door to a tall guy with bright blue eyes and black hair.
"Holy crap Chloe wasn't kidding," I whispered to myself.
"What?" He said.
"Nothing, are you Adrian?" I asked.
"Yes, is Chloe here?" Adrian asked. Just then Chloe screamed "TAYLOR!"
"What?!" I yelled back. I looked at Adrian and he had a confused look on his face. I then noticed that he was still outside with a bouquet of roses for Chloe.
"Oh crap, sorry, come in," I said awkwardly. He came in, "Uh just stay here I'll be right back." I said. I ran into our room and found Chloe hyperventilating on her bed. At first I had the urge to laugh then I suppressed it by grabbing her arm and dragging her off the bed.
"Ok here's the deal you said he was a nice guy ok and I'm sure he is so what are you worried about?" I asked.
"I'm so scared Ill screw it up and he'll just leave," she said. I sighed and looked at her opening my mouth to be interrupted by the sound of the door opening. I started walking out of the room but stopped in the doorway and turned to look at her, "Don't wimp out because your scared he'll hurt you because you never know until it happens I of all people would know," I said with the thought of my father at the back my mind. I went into the kitchen and found Jason and Adrian hugging and laughing...
Jason's POV
I bought the pizzas and pop and got back into my car. On the way home I was trying to imagine what this guy would be like. But I failed and gave up. When I got home there was a maroon pickup truck. It looked kind of familiar, but I didn't think much of it. I walked inside with the food and went to the kitchen. I was setting stuff down when I felt like I was being watched. I turned around to find I was being watched but it was my cousin watching me... He was holding a bouquet of roses awkwardly standing there.
Adrian's POV
I laughed at Jason's expression and watched as he ran the four steps in between us and practically jumped on me. We were actually just hugging and laughing for, what felt like hours but was really a few seconds. I pulled back and looked at him. He hasn't really changed much, he had the same brown hair, which he did nothing to, same smile and brown eyes. He had gotten a better tan but that was probably because of the summer.
"I can't believe that your here," He said obviously astonished.
"It's good to see you again what's it been five years?" I replied. His eyes trailed away from mine and his smile grew into laughter yet he wasn't looking at me he was looking past me. I turned to see who I presumed was Taylor. He walked past me and went to her grabbing her hand. They were obviously dating.
"Taylor this is my cousin-"he was cut off by her saying, "Adrian I know Chloe told me a lot about you." she seemed polite but by the look on Jason's face it wasn't normal for her to be polite. I pulled out a chair and sat down as Jason and Taylor sat across from me. A few minutes past then Chloe walked around the corner. She looked stunning, she was wearing ripped skinny jeans which showed the gap in her thighs, and a white V neck T shirt. Her hair was in, what I'm guessing were natural curls. I guess I was making a face because she then said, "What is it too much do I look bad?" She was obviously flustered.
"You look beautiful." was all I could think to say. She blushed and took a few steps toward the table pulling a chair up and sitting down next to me. She took notice of the roses and thanked me for them setting them on the kitchen table. We all ate pizza and really just hung out for a few hours then when it was around 10:00 Taylor and Jason said they were going to bed so it was just me and Chloe in the living room together.
Chloe's POV
Ok breath in, breath out, repeat. Remember what Taylor said... what did Taylor say? I wish I paid more attention.
"I've had a wonderful time but I really must be going." said Adrian.
"Oh well I'll walk you out to your car." as we walked his hand brushed mine and I felt like my hand was going to explode, then he reached over and grabbed my hand. Breath in, breath out... When we got to his car I leaned against the door. The thought of how close we were drove me crazy. He looked at my eyes then my lips then back to my eyes. I hate when guys do that. He leaned a little closer to me. The slow motion thing wasn't working for me so I sped it up and closed the gap between us and kissed him. After a few minutes of kissing he pulled back slowly and said, "Does this mean I can come over tomorrow?" I laughed and nodded my head yes. When he left I went inside and closed the door. I leaned against it for support because my knees felt like they might give out. I half expected Taylor to be in Jason's room but to my surprise she was in ours and she was smiling really big.
"What's making you so happy?" I asked.
"All those times you got pictures or videos of me and Jason now I finally got you back." She laughed. I looked at her hands to see her holding her phone. I smiled realizing what she meant, in any other case I probably would have tackled her and deleted the videos or pictures she got. But right now I didn't really care.
Taylor's POV
I woke up in a cold sweat. I was, once again, dreaming of my dad. this time we were here in the apartments and he was beating Jason not me. That just made it worse for me. I got up and walked into Jason's room.
"Jason?" I whispered.
"Come in." he sounded weird but I thought he was just tired. The covers were pulled over his head. I lifted them to find my dad smiling an evil smile up at me...
