Crossing Paths *ON HOLD*

Chapter 5: Making Things Better

Brittney POV

-----------------------------

SIX WEEKS LATER

I got a really good paying job at a small bakery. I'm one of the best workers they say. They say it because I dont flirt with the customers or employees like half of the girls. I get payed 25 every hour and I work for 5 hours so I get $125 each day. I have a used prius my mom shipped here, she also sent me 10,000 dollars for a good apartment. So I guess I have a good life.

I walk into the walmart and go to the hair dye section. I slip my headphones in.

I sing along with the words. I grab the blue,white, and green dye. I walk to the auto checkout and buy the dyes. "Brittney?" I hear a voice say. I turn off my song and turn around. "Matt!" I yell. I hug him. "How's eveyrone?"I ask. "The girls and guys are alright but they miss you. It's only Taylor and Aaron who took the punch." Matt says. I nod my head. I bag my dyes and turn my head. I see Matt on his phone blushing. "Does Mattyboo have a girlfwand?" I say in a baby voice.

Matt nods. "Who is it?" I ask. "T-Tina." Matt stutters. "AWWWWW!" I yell. Strangers left and right stare at me. "WHAT?" I says. Everyone looks away. "Mhmm." I confront. Me and Matt walk out the store and head to my prius. ''It's only been six weeks! How did you get a car?" Matt asks. "I told my mom about what happened so she sent me money for a apartment and sent my a used car." I answer him. "I wanna go see the guys. Mostly Taylor" I say. "Let's go then." Matt smiles

I drive to the beach house the boys stayed at and smile to myself. Soon we arrive to the house and walk to the porch. "Ready?" Matt asks. I nod. I ring the doorbell, a very tired Cameron opens the door. As soon as he sees my face his face lights up. Cam pulls me into a hug and calls for Nash and Carter. The two boys tumble down the stairs.

As soon as they see my face they run for a hug. "Where's Taylor?" I ask. "In his room." Nash says. I slowly make my way to his room. I reach for the door and grab the nob as see that it's locked. I knock on the door hoping to see that Taylor is alright. Soon the door opens and I see Taylor walking back to his bed. "Taylor?" I ask. Taylor drapes himself with his blanket. He soon faces me. I walk over and sit on the bed infront of his torso.

''Hey Tay." I say. I see a small tear run down his cheek. I lay my head on his arms."Tay, I know you're sad but everyone is worried about you." I say. "I just feel like everyone hates me. I'm the one who made you go away. When you left Matt and Carter got into a big fight and Jenna came again and Cam yelled so loud I could feel it. Everyone was so sad. I-I just feel like a total cock.." Taylor stutters. A few more tears stream down his cheeks. "Tay, You didn't make me leave. I was just... eh-heartbroken and I needed space. I just wanted some air." I say. I stroke his hair with my fingers getting caught in his knotted hair.

"How long has it been since you showered?" I ask. "About a week." Taylor answers. "Alright bath time." I say. Taylor shakes his head no. I get off of the bed and grab Taylor's arm. "Tay if you shower, brush your teeth, and eat I will kiss you." I say. Taylor gets up and grabs some clothes for his shower. I laugh and walk downstairs. As soon as I get off the last stair I hear the shower start. All the boys look at me dumbfounded. "H-how'd you get him to shower?" Carter asks. "I promised him a kiss." I say. The guys all snicker. "Do you guys want lunch or not?" I say angrily. The boys stop laughing and nod. "Alright. Who can help me cook?" I ask. "I can!" Cam says. I nod. I

I walk into the kitchen with Cam trailing behind me. "So what should we make?" I ask. "How about pasta?" Cam suggests. I nod. "You get the noodles, I get the water." I state.

AFTER THE PASTA IS BOILED

I open the sauce and go to the utensil drawer for a spoon. I feel something cold hit my hair. I touch the back of my head and feel the pasta sauce dripping on my shirt. I turn around to see a laughing Cameron."Alright." I say. I wipe some sauce out of my hair and fling it at Cam. Soon we have a sauce fight. "Alright truce! Truce!" Camron yells. I laugh. We did make the pasta but we were a mess. "LUNCHH!" I yell all the boys including Taylor run in.

"Why are ya'll covered in Alfredo sauce?" Nash asks."We has a sauce fight." I say. "Everyone just eat." I say. "Im gonna shower." I state. All the boys just nod and get plates. I walk past Taylor and he pinches my butt. I walk up to Taylor's room and steal some clothes. I start the shower and get in. I let the warm droplets of water on my skin. After I'm washed up I get a towel and wrap it around my body.

I wrap another one around my head and turn around and see Taylor smirking, I jump slightly."Holy shit you scared me." I say. "I'm waiting for my kiss." Taylor says. "Can I atleast get dressed mr.forward?" I ask. "No." Taylor smiles. "Fine." I say. I walk over to him and peck his lips. I pull my head back and Taylor grabs my waist I clutch onto the towel around my body. He pushes his lips against mine.

I push him off of me and laugh. "I have to get dressed ya dummy." I smile. I grab all of the clothes I stole from Taylor and slide them on. I walk out of Taylor's room.
