Liam's POV

I carefully unwrapped myself from Taylor's firm grip around my arm and slowly crawled out of the bed. I quietly exited her bedroom and found my way to the kitchen downstairs. It was probably about 10 AM right now so I decided to make a small pot of tea instead of coffee. I then made my way out to the back deck where I knew the rest of the lads would probably be.

And sure enough when I stepped out on deck I noticed the lads, Kaley and Luke on the swinging sofa, Anna and Austin laying in the hammock, leaving the the patio bed thing left. I quickly took the opening place and sat my tea on the table beside me. I took in the fresh air along with the cool breeze and sunshine. I stretched out and let the sound of chirping birds soothe me as if there was no worry in the world. I could really get used to mornings like this but living with Luke and Austin... That will never happen.

"Hey how long did you and Taylor stay up last night?" Luke brought me out of my peaceful trance with a question. "Well we stayed up longer then expected. Probably a whole 3 or 4 hours. She started asking questions about me and her, what happened between us, how she ended up in the hospital, everything. I told her most everything last night but no one is sure how or when she got here so we just kinda didn't even acknowledge that." I told them most of the night.. Just happened to leave out the part about staying in Taylor's room last night.

"Don't you think your rushing things man?" Austin gave me a concerned look. "No. I mean she asked and she handled it rather well. I mean yeah she cried but still.." I was cut off by Austin,"No, we were looking for you this morning and found your bedroom empty. You were no where else I'm the flat so we assumed you were sharing a bed with Taylor."

I sighed heavily before grabbing my temples,"she asked me too. I tried to sleep in the chair but she told me she wanted me to stay in the bed with her." They all nodded knowing Taylor and her tendency of strange behaviors. "Hey maybe we should call Jeff. See what he knows and if he is willing to come down and talk to Taylor." Austin made the dumbest statement I've ever fucking heard in my life. "Don't you fucking think about calling that son of a bitch. He will bring nothing but trouble. Especially since Taylor practically has to remake old friendships with us." I scolded Austin like there was no tomorrow. He was fucking insane if he thought I would be okay with that. Maybe later but not now.. It's to risky. There then was a brief silence shared among us.

We all just sat outside enjoying some soft pop rock for about a hour until we heard the backdoor to the flat open. We turned bringing our attention to Taylor. She had her hair pulled up in a messy bun and she was still dressed in the tshirt and shorts she slept in. She instantly made her way over to me and said a quite good morning to the others as she passed. She crawled on the bed thing and snuggled up to me. I instantly wrapped an arm protectively around her.

We sat for another 10 minutes maybe until I spoke up," Hey lads" I waited until all attention was on me before speaking again," I wanna get away for a little. I doesn't have to be long, just a least a week or so. I feel like we all could use a break from everything and have a little bit of time to relax. Just get away." Everyone looked around nodding in agreement as I'm assuming they believe that these past few months have been a little hectic.

"Let's go somewhere warm. Like a beach or something!" Anna had sat up from the hammock getting excited. I looked around as everyone seemed to be in agreement of getting out of town for a while. "Let's go to Hawaii. We've got the money and haven't been on a trip like this in forever." I stood up and walked inside to the laptop on the kitchen counter to pull up some spots in Hawaii. Everyone had followed me and and watched my every move.
