The Break Down

14.

(Taylor's POV)

I watch Olivia as she stirs her milkshake gently trying to get the cherry from the bottom. I smile with amusement as she does this and I take my phone out snapping some pictures of her.

She glances up at me and says, "I can't get the stupid cherry mama." I chuckle and nod, "yeah me neither..it's stuck." She nods and buffs throwing her hand under her chin. Just then the door to pop's opens with the jingle of a bell and I hear the most familiar voice.

"Table for one today Ian?" I freeze in my spot and Olivia looks at Ian smiling. "Mama it's Ian!, look!" She shouts and I desperately try to shush her but it's too late when I smell his intoxicating cologne.

"Why hello ladies, what are you doing today?" I close my eyes and then glare at Livvy slightly. She sinks down and frowns. I look at Ian and his face holds a smug smirk. "Nothing that concerns you Ian."

I turn away sipping my milkshake. "Oh come on." He forces himself next to me in the booth and I make a noise. "What the hell?" He grabs my hand under the table and says, "I'm sorry for what I did...don't be mad at me please."

He stares intensely into my eyes pleading me silently and I stare back at him feeling regret. I move my hand out of his and his eyes flicker slightly. "Fine Ian." His eyes brighten slightly and I say, "but only because I love Mishka."

I sip my milkshake an dosed eye h in with a smirk. His lips slowly pull up and he chuckles. "I knew I got the right dog." I smile and Olivia looks at Ian. "Hi Ian." She peeps and I smile. Ian's eyes brighten slightly and he smiles wide.

"Well hello princess Livvy." She giggles and he how's his head at her. "What do you recommend on the menu today?" She purses her lips and hums. "Well....I think the cheeseburger and fries are wonderful."

She says in just as formal of a tone as Ian did. I chuckle and shake my head, "you two are obviously wrong...we all know that the bacon cheeseburger is superior." I raise a brow and Olivia shakes her head.

"No no mum, cheeseburger." I laugh and say, "well you can get whatever you want love." She nods with a smile. Ian watches me and out of the corner of my eye I see my phone delight up with a call. I sigh and look at it seeing Harry's picture.

Ian shifts and raises a brow. "Hey Hazza." He lets out a huff and says, "are you busy right now?" I raise my eyebrows at his forward response. "Well damn Harry yes I'm great." He hums and says, "and I'm glad but are you busy?"

I roll my eyes with a smirk. "In at pops with Livvy and a friend why?" When I say friend Ian looks away and then sniffs, I glance at him and he looks back to Livvy and they talk.

"Friend?" I nod and sigh. "Yes I will tell you later but why what's up?" He mumbles to himself and then says, "I was wondering if you could come get me?" I close my eyes and say, "harry-"

He groans, "Taylor please you know I would ask unless it was important just please." I sigh and state at Ian and Olivia. "I will be at your house in fifteen...be ready." He sighs and says, "thank you so much." I nod and hum then hang up.

I sigh and put my hands on my eyes. "What was that about?" I look up at Ian and say, "my best friend needs me to pick him up." Ian nods and says, "okay I can stay her and put in our orders." I smile and say, "really?...I don't wanna-"

He punched my shoulder lightly and says, "yes you guys go and I will be here." I smile and hug him gently. "Thank you we will be back in like twenty minutes." He nods letting me out of the booth and Olivia frowns.

"Can I stay with Ian?" Ian and I are both shocked by her question but I shake my head. "No baby come with me." She frowns and says, "but-" I shake my head scolding her. "Olivia no, we will be back in twenty minutes and then our food will be ready."
