Piece by piece (taylor henderson fanfic)

Fuzzy feelings and goose bumps

I wake up to find taylor wasn't in bed anymore... Did I push him out of bed last night with my cuddling him? Bad move ! Never ask your crush for cuddles! Stupid stupid! I scold myself.
I hear the sound of talking and laughter coming from out in the kitchen, I can smell something too but I can't place what it is... So I get up and investigate.

I find myself in the kitchen all of a sudden, everyone is already dressed and I was still in the clothing I fell asleep in last night ... Embarrassing ... I wondered what the time was but felt too tired to speak- I look around the walls to find a clock and sure enough I find one, it says "9.00am" which is a normal time id get up sometimes later.
"Ah, Melissa, come sit down at the table" cam said cheerily so I sit in an empty space "now usually if you get up late an miss breakfast you don't get anything until lunch or you make it yourself but taylor being the kind boy he is decided to offer to make everyone seconds or firsts for some" he laughs, I look around for taylor expecting him to be near a stove but instead find him standing right behind me placing a plate of eggs on toast in front of me on the table, he was smiling widely as he said "here ya go sleepy head! These are the last eggs, lucky you got up just in time" "what?" Says cam "last eggs? I only got more eggs from the yard the other day!" He points to taylor "you're going down to get the next lot! And you'd better hurry because I have to get to mowing the lawn before 9:30" "...me?" Taylor says his voice going slightly higher in pitch as if he was shocked "yeah, you're the last to use them, you collect them" "but I ..." "Go on taylor" cam says putting on a more serious voice, for a minute taylor looked at me in silence then said "... Do you wanna come for a quick walk?" "Sure" I say and put my knife and fork down as I was just about to take a bite from the fork, taylor and cam chuckle for some reason and I feel like I give off the most confused look but I don't.
I follow taylor out bare foot "so the chook yard?" I ask "yeah" he replies
We walk quietly and slowly... There was a feeling about the air between us that's indescribable, I can't tell if it's good or bad but the fact that I don't know scares me a bit, "are you mad at me?" I randomly burst out surprising both myself and taylor "no...." "Well what's up?" I ask "I need to know something..." He says quietly and not looking at me "shoot" I say "you know last night when you asked to cuddle me?" "Yea?" Oh no I feel so nervous right now! Why did he have to bring that up! He probably thinks I'm so weird! Great I've screwed it all up! "Was .... Was it uh... I mean was it er" "come on spit it out" I joke with him "what I mean to say" he smiles "is ... Was it comfortable? " "yeah..." I blush "you're a very warm individual" I laugh and so does taylor "thank you?" He says as we reach the gate to the chicken yard and stop lingering, taylor holds the gate with one hand and suddenly pulls away "ouch!" And mumbled a cuss or two under his breath "what happened ?" I ask trying not to laugh "..... I forgot the electric gate was on at this part" he mumbles I laugh "I'm sorry I shouldn't laugh but I mean ... That was funny" he laughs "hey you" he says "that's not very nice" he laughs I laugh too and things go silent again but this time he's holding my gaze again and he has this big grin across his face randomly he takes my hand and unexpectedly he tries to put my hand on the fence he scared the hell out of me I know he actually wouldn't but it still scared me to think it could happen.
I pull away so hard I fall on my butt in the dirt and all taylor does is laugh, I laugh a little too then taylor offers his hand to help me up but weary that he'd pull me towards the fence again I get up by myself and laugh "not falling for that Tay, I was caught off guard the first time" "I wasn't going to do anything" he laughs "I bet" I say grinning at him.

"Come on let's get the eggs before the old man gets upset" he laughs.
We go in and collect the eggs then start walking back up with them in a metal bucket. We were continuing the conversation from earlier about last night and I say "you have a very strong heart beat, I could hear it when I was falling asleep and cuddling you" "is that good or bad?" He asks "I dunno good I guess... Hey um... Did it bother you when I asked if I could cuddle you?" "Not really, just surprised me, plus I wasn't wearing a shirt so that made it a little awkward but I like your cuddles, they don't bother me, it probably should have felt more awkward then it did last night but it didn't so it's all good" he says sheepishly, we both laugh but not because it was funny... Maybe nerves or something., there's a silence and then taylor quickly adds "it didn't bother you did it?" He looked nervous all of a sudden, I shrug " I guess not" in my chest my heart was screaming though 'of course not!'
"Well that's good then" he chuckles.
