Breaking The Rules

Chpt. 41

Taylor stayed over a while after dinner, and eventually talked his parents into staying the night. I was happy to finally hangout with him. Even though I sort have maybe forgotten who he was until here recently.

"So, tell me, when did you decide to become all hot and stuff?" I asked, he tilted his head down in laughter, he pushed his dark brown hair back like Noah always does.

Dammit, again?

"Are you okay?" Noah's- I mean Taylor's voice snapped me out of my thoughts. He must have noticed my facial expressions. I tend the make them a lot..

"I have a lot to tell you." I bit my lip, I felt my eyes beginning to become teary, but not because of Noah, or what he's done to me, but because of Taylor and all of the memories we should have made over the last few years.

"I've always been here for you." His voice was deep, his thumb was brought to my cheek and he wiped the tear that was beginning to fall. He rubbed my cheek with his thumb, making me want to jump in his arms and hug him.

Instead of standing there awkwardly, I put myself into his arms and hugged the boy I left for many years.

"Maybe it's my turn to help you now." He whispered, hugging me tighter.

"I'm trusting you two to sleep in the same bed." Grandma eyed us, Taylor smiled at her and she giggled. Grandpa and grandma really adored Taylor, I mean, who wouldn't?

He is like the sweetest boy I've ever met.

"You know I would never let anything go that far." He ensured her as she finished making up our bed.

I insisted that I do it, but she refused.

"Come here, boy." I heard my grandpas voice appear into the hall. Taylor gave me a funny look before trailing out into the hallways. I'm not that stupid to not know why he's out here. My grandpas giving him the speech, if you know what I mean.

But, they trust Taylor, they know he wouldn't go far with anything, or at least I hope not.
