Jack Avery | Secret Love 2

2.

Taylor's P.O.V

• flashback to 5 years ago •

Jack and I were sitting at opposite ends of the couch at his home in silence. We haven't said a word to each other since it happened and it's all I can think about.

A million different thoughts racing through my head, am I ever going to have a normal life again? Will jack still love me after this? What will everyone else think of me?

"Tay..." he quietly sighed lifting his head up. "I don't know if I can do it Jack" I said emotionally as I quietly bursted into tears, "hey it's gonna be ok, we'll work it out alright?" He said with sympathy as he came over to me and hugged me tightly.

"What are we gonna do..." I trembled on as more tears fell and continued to wet my soaking red cheeks. "There's plenty of options for us ok? We don't have to decide right now" he said letting go of me.

As I continued to get changed into my clothes and blow dry my hair, my head continued to pound against my skull and I couldn't bare it any longer.

I opened my bedroom door and stepped out into my living/kitchen room. I still live in the same apartment block as I used too, but I moved up to the penthouse and now rent it as I only stay here whenever I'm home in LA.

I walked over to my kitchen bench and grabbed my phone. My phone screen was filled with notifications as I checked Instagram and Twitter, then checked calls and messages and finally emails on my MacBook.

I then grabbed my Chanel purse that I collaborated with them to make, and raced out the door. As I reached the elevator and pressed ground floor I heard my phone buzzing. "This is Taylor" I said as I scrummaged through my purse once again to find some gum.

"Hi Taylor, my names David how are you?" The male voice said on the other line. "I'm good thank you but listen if this is about work you will have to talk to my manager first" I said nicely as I chucked a piece of gum in my mouth.

"Yes I understand that miss Paul, but I have an offer here that just can't wait" David spoke with eager as I finally reached the ground floor of the building. Waving happily goodbye to Tony who was sitting behind his desk I spoke back, "okay I've got a few minutes" I said as my guards opened the huge glass doors and stood by my side as I exited. I put my hoodie over my head and looked down to the ground as I listened to David's 'offer'.

Cameras flashed and people yelled as I was escorted to the door of my SUV, I jumped into the back seat of the car and the door closed behind me. The car drove off and David had finished speaking, "So you need me to be in a music video?" I questioned as I grabbed my granola bar out of my bag and munched it down as politely as I could.

"Yes that's right, it's completely business and I will be in contact with your manger right after this call, but the thing is I need you to come see me this afternoon so I can give you more details" he said with concern. "Ok I will check with my manager - Stacey, because I'm pretty sure I have a meeting tonight with Calvin Klein, but she will let you know" I said as I looked around outside.

"Okay sounds good I will get Stacey to call you and let you know what's happening then" I heard him say with a smile, "okay thanks David goodbye" I smiled back as he replied and I hung up.

I had reached my destination and was once again escorted out of the car and into my agency for a couple of meetings and shoots. I'm very busy today.
