Mine and His

Chapter3: Barhop and Saviours

Taylor's POV
Taylor's car

How could he enter my room? That inconsiderate bastardized *horn blare* entered my *horn blare* room and he.... Ugh! Thinking about it kept me up last night and this morning I woke up earlier than usual and ran out before Allen woke up. I'm currently in my car waiting for it to be 9.45.

I had my routine. I'll go work by 9.45, get there by ten, work till six, get home 6.15, rest for fifteen minutes, dinner by 6.30, by seven I would've been done with my meal and the dishes then I'll watch the 7'o clock news till eight then by eight I'll watch my favorite soap opera till 8.30 then take a long shower and by 9.30, I'm on my bed. That was until Allen came along. I sigh and bring out my phone to call my fiance, Darren. At least I'll be out on a date with him so I won't have the chance to talk to Allen. Yay me!

"Morning dear" I greet immediately he picks up.

"Morning darling. How's the day going?"

Not wanting to tell him what happened, I say "Been fine. Yours?"

"Never better"

There was a long period of silence before Darren spoke up.
"So why you calling?"

I thought for a while. Why was I calling? Well, first of all I wanted to make sure the date was still on cuz my fiance always stood me up and I wanted to prevent that from happening in front of Allen.
"Just wanted to ask if the date's still on. It is right?"

"Em, about that" he pauses and I silently thank God for telling me to ask him. "I'm so sorry dear, something came up. I have a report to file this night then I have to met my secretary to forward it to our head office"

I grunt when he says 'secretary'. He spends more time with her in a day than he does with me in a month.

"I'll make it up to you next time" he quickly adds

"That's what you said last time"

"I promise this time around. I've gotta go, I love you"

I grunt in reply and cut the call, checking the time on my phone: 9.46 so I quickly start the engine and drive to the office.

I gloomily walk into the office and am noticed by Freda.

"What's up?" She asks

"Just got stood up by Darren again" I growl.

"Then let's go bar hopping. It'll take your sorrows away. You know, to find out whose bed the night takes us to"

"You mean, you get drunk while Diane and I prevent you from contacting an STD. I don't think so"

"Hey it's not my fault most blondes are fun. Besides, it'll be fun and I'm sure Diane will tag along"

Diane who is passing, on hearing her name joins our conversation.
"I'll tag along for what?"

"A bar hop" Freda chimes enthusiastically

"Oh. I remember those good days when Taylor will try and prevent this sex bird from landing on a stranger's bed. Why did we stop doing that?"

"Because I started dating Darren and I couldn't continue with my bar hopping ways to prevent infidelity"

"Well that asshole stood you up for the one millionth time and I promise to reduce my fun and excitement, we'll just drink" Freda proposes

"I'm in" Diane says and they both look at me expectedly.

"Well it's not like I have anything better to do and I don't want to be alone with Allen in my house"
