Friends.

I was standing outside Taylor's apartment door, wearing my heart on my sleeve. This was going to be worth the shot and I won't let anything ruin this shot. I knock on her door and waited a few minutes before she opened it.

"Hi" she says, unsure but happy. Taylor was standing in front of me with her pajamas on and hair messy as ever but she still wore her usual smile. "Coming in?"

"Yeah" I say smiling back as she moves away from the door to let me in.

"Look' we suddenly say at the same time, "I have to say something"

"You go first" Taylor says ushering for me to sit on the couch where Meredith was sleeping.

"No, you go first" I reply, "I've had enough of talking"

"if this doesn't work out, I'll lose you" she says abruptly, "You're my best friend and I'm in love with you which is so wrong in so many ways"

"My friends will never love me like you do" I reply, getting up from my seat.

"And if the press finds out, everything will go wrong"

"No one would want that to happen" I take a step towards her and she doesn't move, instead she just stares straight into my eyes; as if weighing the possibility of being together.

"What will everyone say? I'm a horrible girlfriend, please remember that"

"Right now, I don't care about 'everyone'; I just want an 'us' and no matter how horrible you are, I'll have to live with it because I'm in love with you" I was desperate to not let this one pass, I want this more than anything.

"Okay" she says and steps closer to me. Slowly a smile crawled into his her lips, I smile back whilst trying to calm myself down.

"Okay?" I ask teasingly as I slowly leaned in, her gaze shifted from my eyes to my lips then back again.

Taylor nods and I finally closed the gap between us. Her hands were around my neck as mine travelled down her back to her waist, pulling her closer.

I slowly pulled away and just stared into her eyes, her beautiful blue eyes that caught my heart in an instant. I held her in my arms as she placed her head next to mine.

We danced slowly even though there was no music and quietly we laughed. "This feels right" she whispers into my ears and I nodded in reply.

"Meow" we heard and together we stood apart looking at Meredith who looked back at us confused.

"I think Meredith agrees" I say as the cat walked back into the kitchen where it came from. We laughed again and the next thing I knew, the night turned into day.
