Jack Avery | Secret Love 2

12.

Taylor's P.O.V

It's about 6:25pm and I've just finished getting ready, I'm wearing a small yet loose black silk slip dress with a light brown coat, black heels, natural makeup and my hair out again. I grabbed my purse and all my belongings and ordered my driver.

I watched the beautiful sunset out of the car window as we drive down Hollywood boulevard through the busy streets. It was golden hour when I arrived at my destination and I was escorted out of the car by my lovely chauffeur.

I've never seen this place before, are we at the right place? I sure hope not I don't feel like getting my picture taken right now. I walked into the dark room and saw a restaurant. The lights were low, soft music was playing and candles were lit. There were quite a few people here but not too many to make it crowded, it wasn't loud and I wasn't uncomfortable with stares.

I felt 18 again.

I took a deep breathe and walked inside, I saw Jack sitting down at a table for two looking nervous as hell. He looked up and immediately spotted me, his eyes went wide with shock and it took him a while to come to his senses.

He stood up still in shock, as I walked over to him "Hi Jack" I smiled softly, "Hi Taylor" he said as he finally closed his mouth, he lent in and gave me a hug and I hugged him back "you look beautiful" he whispered into the hug.

I felt my cheeks go red and my face flush with heat, I lightly chuckled as we pulled out of he hug and looked at each other "Not too bad yourself Avery" I said as I looked him up and down noticing how much effort he put into himself tonight. He wore black jeans, a black top and a blue denim jacket. His hair was slicked as nicely as his noodles could be and he was absolutely perfect in every way.

He walked behind me and pulled my seat out for me "thank you" I said with a smile as I sat down, he smiled and went and sat back in his seat. "One red wine and one water please" Jack said to the waiter as he gestured to each of us.

He looked back at me with a smile, "so, where do we begin?" He said with a sigh. I sat there and looked at him with a slight smile for a few seconds before I spoke my mind, "why don't we start with the last 5 years, tell me everything Jack Avery. I want to know it all" I said as I folded my arms, resting them on the table in front of me with a smirk.

He smiled, The waiter brought our drinks over and he took a big gulp of water. "Ok..." he began.

"And that's me all done" I said with a sigh as I finished updating Jack with the last 5 years of my life, taking a big sip of my wine as I did so. He smiled as he shook his head in amazement. I just giggled.

There was a bit of a silence as he stared off into the distance, I watched him thinking, what is he thinking about? What's on his mind right this moment? Then there it was.

"I think about it all the time you know" he said in a sad voice as he looked at me with glassy eyes, I knew exactly what he was taking about but I still asked him anyway. "What's that?" I said as I looked at him confused, there was silence again.

He looked down at his fingers and fiddled with his rings, "What our lives might have been like the last few years if we had of been together and had the baby" he said as he pursed his lips and looked up at me in shame.

"You shouldn't Blame yourself Jack, it wasn't your fault" I said as I reached over and rested my hand on top of his trying to comfort him. "But I wasn't there for you, when you needed me the most I wasn't there. I was a shame to you and the baby" he said as he grabbed my hand also.

"Please Jack, stop. You know it's not like that" I whispered as I smiled softly, he smiled back a reassuring smile but I could tell he still wasn't convinced by my few words. But it was true.

The waiter suddenly came up to our table with our food and we happily ate it, for the rest of the night Jack and I talked and bonded like no other. We caught up on each other's lives and learnt everything we needed to know. We ate and we ate some more, I might have had a few too many glasses of wine but I enjoyed myself. And that's something I haven't been able to do for a while.

Jack and I laughed as I fumbled through the door of my apartment, I stumbled over to the counter placing my things down as Jack came in and locked and the door behind us. "Ahh what a night" I said as I took my heels off and tip toed into my room, "I had a lot of fun Tay, thank you" Jack said polity as he followed me in.

I sat down at the end of my bed and slouched as I began taking off all my jewellery, Jack came over and sat down next to me watching me as I went. When I took out my last earring Jack reached up and grabbed my hand, I looked at our connected heads and then over at Jack. He placed my hand down onto the bed as I dropped the earring with the rest of my things.

He moved his other hand up to my cheek cupping it ever so slightly before slowly leaning in and placing his soft, luscious lips on mine. He kissed softly, slowly and gently. It was irresistible and I wanted more.

I leaned into the kiss more as it began to turn into a heated make out, I eventually let his tongue enter my mouth as my mind filled with memories like this one. I moved back onto the bed more lying down as Jack climbed over me, and we continued.

We slowly took off each other clothes, enjoying every last bit of it. Gosh it's been so long but it feels so normal. He tangled our hands together and I nodded my head before feeling him enter slowly, I threw my head back in a moan. And he began going faster, "oh...Jack" I whispered softly.

He smiled as he bent down and placed a long kiss on my lips. You know how it goes from here.
