It's been a week and a bit since Jack and I first started our fling and it's been amazing. And I know we both have to get back to work in a few days but I honestly don't want it to end, I want it to be like this forever.

I've caught up with the boys, had a very, very emotional reunion with Christina and of course spent every day with Jack. No one knows yet of course, I haven't told Logan or Jake, or my Mom even though she would be so happy to hear it. And we haven't told the boys either, which I'm extremely nervous about. It's hard keeping such a big secret from some of your best friends like this.

Today I'm having lunch with the girls, Kendall, Bella and Gigi and I've told Jack I need to let them know what's going on because they're my best friends and they know everything about me already. They know what happened between Jack and I and I'm sure they'll be happy to hear the news.

Tomorrow I'm taking Christina to the beach and then we're all going to have a night on the pier to celebrate our freedom one last night, I think that's when I'm going to tell Christina. Of course I feel awful for not telling Corbyn and I'm a horrible best friend for doing so, but that's what's best for now.

"Oh my gosh!" I squealed as I ran into Gigi's arms inside the small cafe, "Taylor!" She squealed back as we hugged. "It's been way too long" I smiled as I hugged Bella, "i know, you need to tell us everything" she said hugging me back. "We've missed you so much" Kendall then said embracing me into a big hug, "oh me too" I giggled as I hugged her back.

We've been messaging each other in our group chat and contacting over social media, but it's not the same as seeing each other in person. We all sat down at the table inside the cute little downtown cafe as our security guards stayed close, "Wow so how have you girls been?" Kendall said excitedly. Gigi and Bella responded telling us a little on what's been happening, but not much. "I know I've been great, I've been seeing someone again and I'm the happiest I've ever been" I said quietly as i smiled a happy smile.

They all looked at me in shock, "hey! you didn't tell us that!" Kendall gasped as her jaw dropped, "yeah we have a group chat for a reason girl" Bella said obliviously. "Does anyone know yet?" Gigi gasped with a cheeky grin on her face, I laughed and shook my head "I was going to tell you soon obviously it's just that, we wanted to keep it private at first and nothing and come out in the media so we we're pretty happy with how it was. But I couldn't keep it from you girls any longer" i smiled as i shrugged my shoulders.

They all cooed as they watched me talk with dreamy eyes, "so who's the lucky guy" Gigi said wiggling her eyebrows as she smirked. I laughed "you know a little while ago how I told you guys about that boy I met when I was really young, we had something pretty special, and then I had that incident and we kinda split up?" I said knowing they'd remember because I never shut up about him.

"Ohhh yes trust me, we remember" Kendall said as she looked at the girls and then all looking back at me, "you've told us all the little details" Bella said with a wink as the other girls nodded dramatically. I laughed at them as they spoke, "well..." I started to tremble before they eventually caught on and interrupted me.

"No way" Gigi said shocked, "shut up" Bella said seriously as she looked at me with wide eyes. "Oh my gosh" Kendall gasped as I looked at them all with a guilty face and shrugged, "it's him!" She said again. "Yeah..." I stuttered again nervously, "wait, what when? h-how!" Gigi then stuttered as the girls looked at me for answers.

I just arrived at the boys' house after hanging out with the girls and explaining the whole jack situation to them, I pulled my car up next to their SUV and walked inside.

Everyone was sitting on the couch with a glass of wine playing monopoly with snacks and soft music playing as they competed against one another, jack is quite serious when it comes to board games so I'd like to see how this goes down.

As soon as I walked inside they all realised I'm here and turn to welcome me, "Tay your here!" Christina says in a cheery voice. I smile and put my things down, "here come play" Daniel says as he pats the seat next to him on the couch.

Christina walks over to the kitchen and pours me a glass of red before handing it to me carefully, I took a sip of my drink and immediately felt calm and warm inside. I grab a game peice and join myself in to the game.

Times like these, all of us together just hanging out and having a good time is what I missed the most. I don't ever want to lose this again.
