MY LOVER.....MY FRIEND.....A JAYLOR FANFIC

Part 3

Joe's POV

 Oh my God that was embarrassing. Taylor might think that I am a pervert and taking advantage of her. I was unaware she was in there. How can I apologize to her. I hope she forgives me. I can't un see what I saw. She looks hot and sexy. I don't know what to say.

Taylor was still in the bathroom shaking from embarrassment. She did not expect that to happen. She  should have locked the door. Joe might think she deliberately left the door open for him.  I can't face him or look at him without seeing him in his boxers but honestly he has a nice hot body.

Both Taylor and Joe can't sleep. They tossed and turned in bed, bothered by what happened in the bathroom unable to forget how they looked naked and checking each other out thoroughly.

Finally sleep came for both of them at the crack of dawn. Neither one of them was ready to get up and confront each other. At 10 am they have no choice but come out of their rooms. 

Taylor timidly walked into the kitchen and found Joe making pancakes, scrambled eggs, toast, bacon and fresh fruits. Fresh coffee is brewing and the smell permeated the room.

"Good morning Tay, I made breakfast, I hope you'll like it." smiling shyly at Taylor.

"I'm starving. Everything smells good." she said with a small smile on her face.

They started eating silently, glancing at each other, blushing from embarrassment. Then suddenly they started laughing out loud, tears running down Taylor's face unable to control herself. Joe laughing boisterously without control. 

"Oh my God we were bad, we had too much to drink last night and look what happened. You came into the bathroom while I was having a shower naked and you were in your boxers peeing unaware that I was there. You should have seen your face. You looked like a fish with wide open eyes and open mouth." They laughed as hard as they can after Taylor's remarks.

"You looked funny too, trying to cover yourself up with your hands and your hair. Your hair was stuck on your shoulders and didn't do you any good. Your face looks like you have seen a ghost with your eyes so big with a scared look on your face." They laughed some more after Joe's comments.

"We have learned our lesson my dear friend. Never drink too much or something unusual will happen like seeing your dearest friend naked and seeing the other one peeing with no concern". This started another bout of laughter.

"Joe lets we keep this to ourselves. This is so embarrassing."

"That's fine with me, I hope our grandchildren will never know about this." " What do you mean. That's a joke right" and we laughed again.

After they cleared their breakfast dishes, they made plans for the rest of the day and decided to go biking in Central Park but Joe needed to change his clothes. Taylor took a quick shower with the door locked and put on shorts and a tank top.

"Wow you look like a model from a health magazine Tay"  Taylor sashayed like she is walking the ramp and made a funny face making them laugh out loud. 

Joe's apartment is spacious and very masculine with dark leather furniture and black and white decors.

He came into the living room looking like a model for sports wear with black biking shorts, fitted tank top. He gave Taylor a teasing smile and wiggled his nose making her burst into laughter.

"You look like a health magazine cover boy Joe" then he made exaggerated poses like a model of a magazine but with cross-eyed look on his face. This started another bout of laughter complete with hand slapping.

" Let's go my friend and have fun in the sun." They rented bikes and went around the park exploring hidden spots not known to tourists. They marveled at the beauty of the place including the fountain, the view, the great lawn, conservatory garden, the carousel, the central park zoo, Belvedere Castle, Strawberry Fields and other spots. They had fun taking selfies and taking pictures of other people.

They could never stop smiling or laughing or giggling at their antics ; just having fun as friends. They ate food cart hot dogs, ice cream, pretzels and other snacks feeding each other while acting like momma bird feeding her baby bird. Taylor and Joe being best friends and enjoying each other's company.

At dusk they returned their bikes and Joe drove Taylor home. "So what are your plans these upcoming week days."

"My calendar is full with meetings and promotion of our business but we can still hang out on the weekends if that's okay with you".

"My pleasure Joe, that's what friends are for. I really had a fantastic day today. Thank you".

"Thank you for reintroducing me to New York. We'll keep in touch and I'll see you next weekend" Then gave Taylor a hug and a kiss on both cheeks before he left.

Taylor was lounging in bed when he got a call from Joe. "Hi Tay, I really had a great time spending the day with you. I couldn't remember a more fun time than today".

"Me too. I have been to Central Park numerous times but today was great. I loved sharing fun with you today my friend".

"Let's keep doing this and explore other places soon. Maybe you have somewhere in mind we could do that this weekend".

" There's more and we will again enjoy our next outing. If you're free my family and some friends are going to spend the weekend in the Hamptons I hope you could come with us."

"That will be great. Is your Dad okay with me coming? I hope I'm not intruding".

"You are always welcome in my family Joe. You're my best friend".

"OK, I know you will be there for me, as I'll be there for you my dearest friend."

The next few days were filled with executive meetings for Taylor and Joe. She was in a conference call with an investor from the UK and had to make her best pitch to entice him to invest in their company then attend conferences related to her job. Joe was in multiple meetings for presentation of ideas and business with other companies. By Friday they were both beat and needed to unwind. Taylor called Joe that her team are having drinks and he agreed to come.

"Joe, over here" he saw a group of 6 men and women in a corner table with Taylor sitting at the head of the table. They shared a hug and a kiss on the cheek, sat down on the chair beside her then she  introduced him to her colleagues. 

Among the group is a dark haired guy who was trying to dominate the conversation. He was looking at Taylor with goo goo eyes and trying his hardest to attract her attention. Taylor seemed unaffected by this . She's giving everybody their fair share of attention and responses. 

Then the dark haired guy named Alex turned to Joe "You are British, why are you here in America? Are you trying to seduce our women with your accent?"

Joe was taken aback by his statement "American women or women in general are not that shallow to fall for an accent. It's not the way how a person speaks, it's what he speaks about which is more important." 

" That's an interesting response Joe. I am a sucker for British men and their sexy accent. I want to hear more from you". Joe turned to a bottle blonde woman who gave him a seductive smile and a wink.

Joe responded by giving her a polite smile. Taylor saw what was unfolding and felt uncomfortable with this exchange.
