Could...You...Uh...Do...That...Again...
I heard the front door open and slightly opened my eyes, adjusting them to the sudden brightness. I saw Ryan and Kendra come in, it was 2:00 in the morning, I noticed when I looked at the clock on the wall. They hadn't noticed I was awake so they just went on back to their room, shutting the light off as they did so. I noticed that I was still in my clothes from earlier, they weren't that comfortable either so I tried to get up to go change, completely forgetting that I was in Taylor's arms. I finally remembered, but only after he had woken up.
"Oh gosh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you up."
" Oh that's ok. I should probably get up anyways, I don't see sleeping on the couch doing my neck any good." I laughed at his comment and told him I was going to go change. I came back a few minutes later and turned on the light and then went to go turn on the radio before I sat back down on the couch.
" Are you tired?" He asked after a few moments of silence.
"Not particularly."
"Then do you wanna talk for awhile?"
" Sure. I'm gonna go make some coffee. Do you want any?"
" Yeah that'd be great."
" Lot's of cream and sugar right."
" Yep."
" Ok. I'll be back in a minute." I went over to the kitchen and made our coffee and brought it back a few minutes later as promised.
" Here you go, be careful it's hot." I said handing him his coffee. I sat back down on the couch and turned to face him.
" So what do you want to talk about?" He asked after a few minutes of silence.
" We could play truth." I suggested, taking a sip of my coffee, then setting it down on the coffee table infront of us.
" Don't you mean truth or dare?"
" No, I mean truth. Haven't you ever played before?" He shook hi head 'no', so I explained the game to him.
" It's really easy. We take turns asking eachother questions and if you refuse to answer the question then your stuck with some really weird or awkward penalty dare that the other person comes up with."
"Oh, ok. Sounds easy enough."
" You go first."
" Ok, hmmm..... Do you have a boyfriend?"
" No, do you have a girlfriend?"
" No, how many guys did you date after we broke up?"
"Five, how many girls did you date after we broke up?"
" Two, were any of them serious?"
" One, we broke up right before I came here, which was about a month ago. Were you serious about either of the girls you dated after me?"
" No, have you slept with anyone since me?"
" Yes." He looked so shocked.
" What?"
" I'm just playin' Taylor. I haven't made love to anyone since you but we did "sleep" together on the couch."
" Oh ha freakin' ha!" he said throwing a pillow at me. I just giggled. We sat there for a few minutes just looking at eachother expectantly.
" Your turn" he finally said.
" Right. I knew that."
"Sure you did. Just keep telling yourself that and maybe one day it'll come true."
" Oh shut up. Anyway, besides Katie did you sleep with anyone after we broke up?"
"No, what's your favorite dessert topping?" she gave me a funny look but answered anyway.
" Whip Cream, do you still have feelings for me?" " I refuse to answer that."
" Then you'll have to take a penalty dare."
" Ok what?"
" You have to.....have to.....hmm."
" Will you just go ahead and pick something?"
" Ok, you have to kiss me." I have to what? Ok, this is my chance to prove that I still really care about her.
" All right." She stood up and reached out for my hand. I took it and stood up infront of her. She was still really short. I loved that about her. I put my hands on her hips and leaned down to her awaiting lips. Our lips finally met, and I kissed her for a good 10 or twenty seconds before she turned it into a French kiss, not that I minded though. I wrapped my arms around her tiny waist as she wrapped her arms around my neck bringing us as close as physically possible. We broke away from each other few minutes later.
" Could...you...uh...do that again?" She asked when we broke away.
" Of course." I smiled at her and then I kissed her again.
" That was...uh...wow." I smiled at her and sat back down on the couch pulling her with me, so that she was sitting in my lap. She giggled a bit and looked into my eyes for a minute, like she was searching for something. She must have found it because a few moments later she smile and turned around, leaning her head back onto my chest.
I looked into Taylor's eyes for a few minutes, I was looking for what he felt. All I saw staring back at me was love and admiration. He felt exactly what I felt, and that's all I needed to know to know that we should be together again. I could trust him, and I loved him, so why shouldn't we be together? I smiled then I turned around and leaned back on his chest, my fingers loosely linked with his. 'All My Life' came on the radio and he started to whisper the words in my ear, our fingers loosely linked together. He whispered 'I Love You' when the song was over. I smiled and then turned slightly so that I was basically facing him (well as much as I could anyway, considering I was sitting in his lap).
"Taylor, what does this mean for us, I mean are back together or what?"
"Do you want to be back together?"
" Yes."
" Then, will you be my girlfriend?"
"Yes, but you have to do something for me first."
"Ok, what's that?"
"You have to kiss me like you did a few minutes ago." He smiled and then obliged to my request. When he pulled away I smiled at him and gave him a small, short, peck on the lips. He yawned.
"I'm tired, do you wanna go ahead on to bed?"
" Yeah." We got up off the couch and held hands back to our room. Shutting off the light as we went in.
"I'm gonna go brush my teeth ok?"
" Sure." He replied getting into bed. When I came back I went over to his bed.
"Scoot over."
" What?"
" I wanna sleep with you tonight." I told him lifting the covers to get in.
" Oh, ok sure." I climbed in and then scooted back against him, he wrapped his arms around me and I reached up to turn out the lamp. Once it was off I snuggled into his chest and fell asleep.
