I'm thinking this is gonna be a small fanfic in this book....I hope you guys enjoy this 😍

I woke up the next morning with a small pounding in the back of my head. I groaned looking around my room, the sunlight was pouring in from the window. Quickly I got up and shut the blinds. I flopped back down on the bed rubbing my temple, the rythmic pounding had slowly spread throughout out my head resulting in a headache. I always tell myself I'm going to stop drinking, but somehow every Saturday morning I wake with a hang over. I coughed a bit as I stood up, my body stiff from falling asleep and not moving all night. I needed water. My mouth had the worst taste in it.

In the bathroom I stood in front of my mirror, my sweatpants hung loosely from my hips exposing just a bit of my V-line. My hair was in every direction, I looked a mess. I reached for my toothbrush but stopped when I smelt bacon. I felt my stomach twisting and I had the urge to throw up. My mouth started to fill with saliva and I ran to the toilet bowl. I hunched over it, spitting out the excess saliva. I began to gag and soon every bit of alcohol that wasn't absorbed into my blood stream had been thrown up. I groaned loudly. Taking a deep breath, my stomach was bouncing but felt much better. I spit one last time and stood up, wiping my mouth. I walked back to the mirror and grabbed my toothbrush again, this time managing to clean my mouth. I finished off with a nice cool shower and headed down stairs.

When I rounded the dining room corner I was met with the most perfect sight. My mom, Kelianne, Zach, his girl & Bryce all sat around the table feasting on a beautifully prepared meal. There was a stack of pancakes. A pile fried potatoes and hash browns. Some sausage and bacon. Grits and toast all spread out neatly on the table in front of everyone. There was a sweet smell and I glanced over at the oven and to my surprise I watched as Y/n bent over taking out what appeared to be Cinnamon Buns.

"What's all this?" I questioned pulling out a chair next to Kelianne looking up at me pulling a fork out of her mouth, covering her mouth with the back of her hand, "Y/n is cooking breakfast". I nodded in response," I see that but wh_" I was cut off by a plate being put in front of me. It was filled with pancakes and sausage a small pile of grits and a tall glass of apple juice was placed right next to it. I felt y/n's hand brush past my arm. "Morning Sunshine" she beamed, "I hope you're hungry". There was something off about her, she wasn't as shy as the day prior. I thought back to last night she wasn't then either. Maybe she was growing comfortable around me. I looked down at the food before and my stomach grumbled. It looked amazing, the pancakes we're fresh and had little blue specks, I looked around the table for the syrup and I was almost like Y/n could read my mind. "Tell me when?" She began to pour the syrup onto the pancakes. We made eye contact and she smiled & for the first time I blushed. I thought back to last night and how kind she was & how I made myself look like an ass. I quickly looked back down, "that's enough, thank you" I said grabbing my fork. "No problem! Is everyone okay?" She asked the table. They all nodded they're heads, mouths too full to answer. "GREAT!" she chimmed happily. She took the seat across from me next to my mom, who had gave her a huge look of appreciation.

"Tayler, you should eat up" my mom motioned to the plate of food before me, "Y/n here is an amazing cook." She gave her a warm smile; " thank you Miss Wendy. I learned from the best"

I went for the pancakes first, which were still warm, they were light a fluffy and tasted like cinnamon & blueberry. I could definitely get used to cooking like this. If breakfast was this good, I can only imagine what dinner was like. I looked up from my plate over at Y/n who was taking a bite off of hers. She looked up at me and gave me a big bright smile, which I returned. After breakfast Y/n was clearing off the table & receiving many thanks from full and happy people. I decided to try my luck and approach her I needed to apologize for last night.

"Need any help?" I asked walking up to the sink placing my dishes into the soapy water. "Nah, I'm all good" she said, "but thanks...did you enjoy the meal?" She asked scooting me over a bit so she could get to the sink better. "Yeah, it was actually amazing who taught you how to cook like that?" I asked leaning back on the counter."Uh..." She started scrubbing a pan; " both of my parents were chefs I guess it's literally who I am" she laughed; "I really enjoy cooking" she looked over at me.
"Are you sure you don't need any help? That's a ton of dishes" "Yeah, I'm all good Tayler but thanks for the offer" she smiled once more and continued to wash the dishes.

I stood there for a few more moments longer than I should have because then it started to become awkward.
I went to to living room and sat down. It was an open space in my house, I could see Y/n washing the dishes from my couch. Everyone else was either upstairs or gone so virtually it was just her & I in the house.

Wow. She really is something. I can't believe Keli hadn't introduced us sooner. It really bummed me out. I started thinking of was to subtly let her know that I liked her. My heartbeats increased when I pictured her & I together. Out and about or with her in my arms. I could just see us together.

Later that day I was in my room playing my guitar when I heard a loud scream come from downstairs. I rushed down stairs to find Kelianne and Y/n in a mangled position.

"What are you two, goofballs doing?" I asked grabbing Y/n and helping her up. She was still laughing when she helped Keli up. I noticed there was a twister map on the floor. "We were playing twister" Y/n laughed looking back at Keli who looked like red tomato. " Yeah we were filming a YouTube video" Keli chimmed in. I smiled, "y'all are gonna end up breaking a bone." The girls looked at each other and shrugged. "More Clout' Keli laughed.

"Wanna join us?" Y/n asked walking up behind Keli.
"Yeah, Tayler you should totally join us" Kelianne chimmed in. I looked around at the twister mat and then at the girls in front of me. It would be a good excuse to talk to Y/n so I ultimately said yes. About half an hour later we were a tangled mess. Y/n had ended up under my left arm, Kelianne was stretched out across the map and I was on all fours. The laughs coming from us filled the room and finally I collapsed. Breathing hard but laughing even harder. We managed to untangle ourselves and Keli did her outro. She got up to turn the camera off! "That was great! Thank you guys" she said smiling big. "Anytime" Y/n said. I found my looking at her as she and Keli talked. Eventually, Keli left the room and it was just me a Y/n I didn't even realize that I was still looking at her till we made eye contact.

"Tayler...?" She said and I literally snapped out of my trance. "Yeah?" I nodded. "Are you okay?" She asked me, looking deep into my eyes. "Yeah I'm okay I was just thinking about getting something to eat" I laughed. Smooth. "Why are you hungry?" She asked turning her body to face mine. "yeah kinda" I said looking at her lips. I was hungry, that's for sure; "you wanna go get something to eat?" I asked her hoping to the good Lord above she said yes. She nodded; "yeah I can go for some grub" she said standing up; "give me like 10 mintues to fix myself and I'll meet you downstairs?" She said, her hands already going up to her hair which was in a bun at one point but now was lop sided and falling out. It was cute. "Yeah sounds awesome!" I said hopping up, my whole mood improved drastically. I just landed myself a date!
