Help Me Push Aside All the Things I've Left Behind (Tayley)

6: This Is the Best Thing

Chapter 6:

Hayley’s POV:

“Daydreaming. Daydreaming all the time.” I sang with all the vocal strength I had within me. I was both excited and nervous to get all these ideas and emotions out of my system. With this new album I’m not sure what we expect, but what I do know is that this is going to be the album that I want people to think of when they think about us. I want this to be the album full of music that can reach people on different levels.

I kept singing the same lyrics over and over again just trying to perfect it. JMJ finally gave me the okay. I smiled taking off the head phones and stepped out of the recording booth looking around for Taylor. He was nowhere in sight so I decided to look out for him. He wasn’t outside either.

“Mmmhm?” I raised an eyebrow turning to Jeremy who was playing random notes on his bass.

“Jerm?” He looked up at me.

“What’s up?” He asked looking back down at his hands.

“Have you seen Taylor?” He shook his head.

“I think he went to take Bill for a walk.”

“Thanks.” I went to the area where all of Taylor’s pedals where set up. I just sat there taking out my phone deciding to scroll through Tumblr and such. Just waiting for my Greek God like boyfriend to walk through the door with our puppy Bill after their walk. Jeremy was called into record not long after. I was getting pretty bored just waiting around. So I took one of Taylor’s guitar and started strumming random notes.

“I swear you are so much better than me.” I jump. I hadn’t noticed Taylor standing there listening to me play.

“Nah, you’re so much cooler than i.” I blushed as he walked over to sit in from of me cress crossed. Bill in his arms. I sat the guitar to the side. Pecking Taylor on the lips. I took Bill from his arms and fell back on the ground so that now I was laying completely on my back. I held Bill up high above me as I giggled uncontrollably.

“You are so adorable.” I smiled looking up to see him starting down at me. I stuck my tongue out at him getting him to do the same. I swear these are my favorite times. When we’re in the studio having fun recording and doing things when someone else is in the booth.

Bill was licking my face and running around my head getting me to laugh at how silly this doggy of ours was. It was a big decision for us to get a pet together but we figured we can manage since we are indeed live together.

Bill then snuggled next to me falling fast asleep. I sighed deciding to sit up all the way.

Taylor was still sitting on the floor just staring off into space with his guitar in his hands. I took bill form my side and proceeded to pet him as I snuggled him closer to me. I just started at Taylor. Not in a creepy manner either, I was just staring at him in a form of admiration.

Those times when he walks away even if it’s for one second I find myself feeling lonely in a crowded room. I sometimes stay quiet just to embrace the sound of his voice. I impatiently wait to be able to hug him and have him hug me tightly.

At night i fall asleep wanting the sun to rise just so that I will be able to feel his lips on mine the next day as my head fits perfectly on his chest. Hypnotized, he has me as I get so lost in his scent. When I’m not with him all day I can’t wait to come home and tell him all about my day. I love the way he surprise me every day with how talented and such a great person he is. The way that he erupts butterflies in my stomach at just the sight of him. Something no other person has ever made me feel.

It’s crazy, but I find myself falling in love with him more and more each day.

I sighed bringing myself back to the real world. Taylor was still so busy playing cords. I then slightly kicked his knee with my foot. Clearly I wanted to meet his eyes. I wanted to have his full attention as I sat Bill back to the ground. He looked up at me and smiled. I then crawled on all four and kissed him hard. Something about him sitting there overpowered my every sense making me go insane for one second. Losing focus on the world around us. Because for that moment, it was just Taylor and I.

He sat the guitar on his side as I crawled on his lap. Keeping one leg on each side, leaving my body to face him. We kissed for what felt like an eternity. We kissed until we no longer could feel our lips. We kissed until our breathing was cut off and then some. Taylor was the one to pull away leaning his forehead against mine.

“I’m not sure what got into you just then, but please let that happen more often.” Taylor said to me making me blush.

“Sure thing babe.” I kissed his nose as he dug his face into my neck. Wrapping his arms around my waist. I could feel his lips brush on my skin making me want to just jump his bones. I breathed heavily trying to calm my excitement.

“Want to go play basketball?” I whispered in his ear. He nodded as best he could against my neck. “Well you have to let me get up first.” He then sighed losing his grip on me.

I stood up extending my hand out towards him. He took it following me to the basketball court that was set up just outside the backyard. I walked out first beginning to bounce the ball a couple of times as Taylor tied his shoes.

I threw the ball at him. The ball bounced off his butt which was exactly what I intended. I laughed so hard.

“Oh yeah.” He stood up properly giving me a fake death glare.

“NO.” I giggled as he began chasing me around. I made the best attempt to get away, but Taylor Long Legs over here was too much for my short legs. He caught up to me with ease. Wrapping his arms around me from behind picking me up and spinning me in the air. I giggled.

“Taylor put me down.” I managed to get out between laughs. He did. I then turned to slap his arm having him take my arm and pull me towards him. My body crashed against his as he bent down and kissed my lips again. And there they went. Those dang butterflies that have made a permanent home in my body.

I smiled as we pulled away.

“How about that basketball game?” He asked as he pulled away from me fully.

“A little one on one?”

“Sure, shirts vs. skins. You be skins of course.” He said with a sly smirk. I chuckled.

“You’d like that wouldn’t you?” I said as I was now standing in front of him with the basketball in hand ready to start. He nodded standing directly in front of me. “Maybe later.” I said as is sent a wink down his way.

“I will be holding you up to that later on.” He smiled at me as I blew a kiss towards him.

“Game on!” I shouted as I threw the ball and actually made it into the net. Taylor and I ended up playing basketball for the next hour or so. Up until he literally split his pants open. From his ankle all the way to his inner tight. I swear I was laughing so hard I almost peed myself.

Times like these I will cherish forever.
