Love Knows No Age

Heart to Heart

It was four days until graduation and I was completely freaking out in my room. Throwing clothes trying to decide what I was gonna wear. My room looked like a tornado went through it. I was so busy looking for clothes I didn't notice Rob walk into my room until I heard his voice. "Damn Tayser what the hell happened in here. It looks like freaking clothes tornado came through." I jump hearing him. "ROB!!! I'm freaking out!" He laughs "I can see that Tayser!" Jensen walks in looking around. "Taylor what the hell happened! Did a clothes bomb go off in here!" I start crying they both look at me. It's Rob who says something. "Tayser what's wrong?" I stand there sobbing. "I have noting to wear for graduation!" They look at one another and then around the room. Jensen speaks this time. "Umm, Tay what's wrong with all the clothes scattered around your room!" I sob harder as they both just stare at me confused. "J they are all wrong!" Rob walks toward me and takes me in his arms pulling me tightly. "Tayser sweetheart calm down. Your acting as if it's the end of the world. It's only graduation! everything is going to be fine." I sob into Rob's chest. "Robbie it is a big deal! Everything is about to change!" Rob looks at Jensen who's frozen in place. He walks over to Rob and me as Rob sits on my bed pulling me with him. He tries to put me next to him but I cling to him causing him to have to let me sit in his lap. He holds me close to him as I shake in his  arms. "Tayser sweetheart look at me!" I bury my face in his neck not wanting to look at him or Jensen.  Jensen finally says something as he pulls my face away from Rob's neck. "Taylor Nicole what's really going on. I've never seen you like this!" He stares into my tear stained face. After a few minutes of me not saying anything Rob says. "Come on Tayser talk to us!  You know you can tell Jensen and me anything. What's bothering you? I look into Rob's sky blue eyes then to Jensen's apple green ones before I sigh taking a deep breath. "It's just that everything as I know it is about to change. In four days I'll be graduating from high school and a few days after that I'll be auditioning for a role to be my real life boyfriends TV girlfriend.  I'm scared if I don't get the job he'll be kissing another women and he'll fall in love with her and leave me. I'm a little on edge." Jensen gets a hurt look in his eyes as he looks at me then Rob. "Taylor as much as I love you I can't deal with this one I'm sorry." Rob nods understanding. Jensen hugs me as best he can since I'm still sitting in Rob's lap. "Tay I love you so much! Don't you ever forget that!" I smile getting up from Rob's lap and moving to his. I wrap my arms and legs around him like I used to do as a kid. "I love you to J!!!" He grins squeezing me tightly! "Tay you haven't sat like this in my lap since you were like 6! I'll leave so you can talk things out with Rob. There are some things I don't wanna know Tay! And your love life with Rich is one." I smile at my big brother, "It's okay Jensen I understand." I kiss his cheek and climb off his lap and sit on the bed between him and Rob. He smiles at me and squeezes my hand before getting up and walking out the room.

"So Tayser wanna talk to me about what you just said. Why do you think Rich is going to leave you if he kisses another girl?" I look at the ground thinking about what to say. Rob just watches me waiting for my response. I fidget with hole in my jeans taking a deep breathe. "Rob sometimes I feel like what Richard and I have is a dream that I'm going to wake from one day. Sometimes I think to myself why would a man like Richard wanna be with a girl like me? What's so special about me? I mean I'm just some love struck teenager who happened to get lucky and snag her crush. I feel like Richard is going to get tired of me because I have no experience when it comes to certain things." I tear escapes my eye. Rob puts a finger under my chin pulling my face up to look at him he sees the stray tear on my cheek and wipes it away. "Oh my sweet Tayser I can assure you that what you and Rich have is not a dream it is in fact real life. You have no idea how special you are do you Taylor Nicole!" I wince at him saying my full name. He notices and laughs before continuing to talk. "Tayser your special in so many ways. You have a heart of gold. You'd do anything for anyone not caring if it hurt you in the process. Your an awesome friend. I'm living proof of both of those statements. You were there for me at one of those lowest points in my life. I didn't think I'd ever be able to be happy again after my divorce but you made me see life goes on and when I asked you to keep it from Rich and everyone else you did. You kept my secret even when things went bad for you and Rich. You were willing to give up something you've always dreamed of just to keep my secret. Tayser if that isn't special I don't know what is." I go to say something but he holds up a finger. "No before you say anything let me finish talking okay!" I nod and he continues. "Tayser believe me when I say Richard is completely and utterly in love with you. You're all he ever talks about. He's like a lost puppy when you're not around Taylor. He's constantly looking at the photos you send him. Rich isn't leaving you anytime soon. You're stressing yourself about nothing Tayser. Now what do you say we go do some shopping!" I smile pulling him close to me hugging him tightly. "Robbie I love you so much. You're the greatest listener and you always know what to say to make me feel better." He laughs "Tayser you mean the world to me. You're like one of my kids. I'd do anything to make you smile! What do you say twitter post?" I giggle pulling out my phone. We snap a bunch of photos. The last photo is one of Rob looking at the camera as I look at him. He smiles seeing it. I pull up twitter and begin to type.
