Leaning over the pool table in a short dress is a step classier than taking your clothes off, I tell myself desperately trying to not feel self conscious. I am beating Josh and he's taking this seriously.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAQBkaeW1PNQ
Having potted a red I'm aiming for the colours in order and I don't plan on missing. I pot the yellow and it sneaks in just as I aimed it too. I straighten up from leaning over the table and I smile.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAmiST9afQxj
"Nice" Josh says admiring my shot.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAVumQK5347u
Jay is playing Ross on the other table, yes Josh has two pool tables not just the one. I am however aware of Matty. He is sitting in one of the armchairs and as I walk around the table I can see him in my peripheral vision. He's sipping his drink and the girl next to him is watching him conspicuously. Like he might decide to look back at her if she started dancing around him. Or something. She has straight red hair and far far too much makeup on.
38Please respect copyright.PENANA8DLuQIw81G
"Winner plays Matty" Josh suggests and I smile.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAce37u7lP2S
"I will win" I laugh.
38Please respect copyright.PENANANDOcjxsTqy
"Oh yeah" he eggs me on.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAk8DLPWbLZW
"Babe you couldn't pot a red" I sigh.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAjBxddtmggl
He laughs and shakes his head.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAYTkQzTBcMg
"I did let you go first though" he says.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAW9lHRPNATI
"Is that your excuse" I laugh lining up on the green.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAqM5Gq4Ffw5
"Not an excuse it's a fact" he laughs.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAsIBW5FCU6a
Now I'm right in Matty's eye line. I inch over the table incrementally and pot the green.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAh7sdiciJSR
I straighten up and smile.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAphi5NgsNtR
"Okay let's change the rules then you want to play fair, I'll give you a shot at the brown. If you pot it then games yours so long as you can finish it" I say to him hearing Jay chuckle from the other table.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAzsWUb6kcio
"That's a good bargain" Ross says
38Please respect copyright.PENANAwU1YGFpj5K
"Shots clear" Jay adds smirking
38Please respect copyright.PENANAaoRnXkqrve
They momentarily stop their game and I sip my wine. Jay stands with me watching Joshua line up his shot.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAunIC9C8pGw
"It's a miss" he whispers and I chuckle feeling for his hand.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAYLB1O2SnHO
"So sexy, by the way. I'll have you know I'm losing because of you leaning over tables in that dress" he whispers.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAw3T1tvzJfc
"Hmmm maybe we should get a pool table" I say turning to face him.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAJHmTTRukBD
"We don't have to play pool on it" I whisper back and he grins
38Please respect copyright.PENANAeWJ7cB0q8I
"Stop it" he whispers
38Please respect copyright.PENANADqQUrwLwt9
"Make me" I face him and kiss him
38Please respect copyright.PENANAmr4kCEqADT
Joshua misses the green and I disentangle myself from Jay smiling at him.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAXNM9rno8VL
"Perfect looks like I'll finish it" I sigh turning back around.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAXaLLNFm2Bu
Matty stands up from his chair to watch.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAW8EYMSPzrN
"Looks like you'll be playing her next" Josh sighs laughing.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAohQn4z1Yii
"She's pretty good" he adds
38Please respect copyright.PENANAdjlqJUsmdq
"Oh I know" Matty says and comes to stand by the table. Just watching me finish off potting all of the balls. I'm not put off by him. Josh goes to lean against the table next to him and I just work around them. When I'm done I turn to them looking at Josh first.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAJY2iTLe4FQ
"Don't be a sore loser" I say.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAnlwdGwvtBs
"Okay Matthew let's go" I smirk.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAXFcu1O7yj7
He smiles at me and positions the balls on the table.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAEjHuyvfA7a
"I'm ready babe" he says.
38Please respect copyright.PENANA62aQXYq5Ea
"You can go first" I tell him and he smirks.
38Please respect copyright.PENANALTzE44Ky3j
I watch him lining up his shot, I know he won't just smash it and get lucky he is calculating it. He moves his hair off of his face and in one swift movement he moves his cue and of course pots a red.
The one he intended on potting.
38Please respect copyright.PENANABp9CG3XgiQ
I lean against the table watching him, he's not put off by me whatsoever. We know each other inside out to be fair. He misses his next red and I smile at him. He's not a sour person and he makes way for me to have my go.
38Please respect copyright.PENANArt44b6cQ2Z
"You left it open" I comment.
I can see a red that I can easily go for, so naturally I pot it. And I have lined my shot up for the next one too. I think ahead.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAEKHVQlNjZx
"You're a planner" he says leaning arms crossed.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAQny8A1Rx3x
"Of course I am" I smile
"Gotta think of the next step" I say.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAEqumgpI9pc
I concentrate and pot two more reds. I look up and glance at him and he's watching me, the expression on his face is the exact one he would normally wear when we were in a relationship and I was singing or playing guitar. I sigh. Time to let him have a go.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAa2U7Fh4ump
I miss my red and then hand over the table to him, Joshua is chatting to the girl that was eyeing up Matty.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAdktHCIDXhA
"Nice shot, Matthew" I say as he pots a red.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAClR41IbRrU
"Matthew? Trying to charm me into missing my shot" he chuckles
38Please respect copyright.PENANAVxcICZlbeM
"Oh I wouldn't need to" I sigh.
38Please respect copyright.PENANATd58REyfTW
He misses, walks over to me.
38Please respect copyright.PENANArb0lpnx8t4
"You wouldn't need to even try" he murmurs and stands behind me waiting for me to decide what to pot. I will not be put off by him.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAoULkanNi8G
I lean over the table and take my shot, I don't care that he's behind me. Ross won the game over Jay and they come over to our table. I pot the red and then straighten up. It's the last red so I just need to clear the colours.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAtxeTyScTft
"Where have you been hiding this talent" Ross smiles.
38Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZLjvhVkSN
"I'm not talented I've just practiced. That's all" I smile back. They continue to watch me clear the table and once I'm finished I look to Ross.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAHkpiZ04h3Y
"Winner v winner later maybe" I say and head to get some more alcohol.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAZzyLei2Jpu
As I'm pouring myself a shot and another glass of wine in the kitchen, I'm determined to have a good night and get so drunk that I can no longer see Matty gazing at me like I'm his world. I want blurry vision. I literally bump into Joshua as I turn around to put the the vodka back, knocking all of his drink out of his hand and on his nice shirt.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAofzITLHbst
"I'm really sorry, fuck" I say grabbing a kitchen towel.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAEXSyVquIYu
"It's alright don't worry Tay" he says and I mop his shirt off a little.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAn3kij3FoHG
He unbuttons it, I avert my eyes and take the vodka over to the side. When I've turned back around he's put his shirt in the laundry basket and he's topless. How do I get myself into these situations? He's got a ripped chest and a deep v which leads down to his jeans, his Calvin Kleins are showing at the top of his waistband.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAx0IIFXEkSX
I neck my vodka shot. I will not eye him up. I will not, I head to the kitchen door to go and find the others. Specifically my very own drop dead gorgeous man.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAwpRbgwc7Ip
"Taylor, you ugh" Joshua says and I turn around.
38Please respect copyright.PENANALx1PtXzzuX
"Sorry nothing" he smiles
38Please respect copyright.PENANAuepUONAchK
"No what is it" I say, otherwise I will think about what he was going to say over and over.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAkdfXY29TRl
"You look gorgeous; like fucking amazing" he smiles
"And that is cliche. But yeah you ugh look the best out of every single female here" he says casually.
38Please respect copyright.PENANASmZogEvh9r
"I mean thank you" I say, feeling unsure as to where this has come from.
38Please respect copyright.PENANARPOKEZDlSC
"So how are you?" He asks and I wonder where this conversation is going.
"How's your hand" he asks and approaches me.
38Please respect copyright.PENANA2mnKwMa58D
"It's all good now" I say
"How's you" I say wow the vodka is strong. I lean onto the kitchen side. Quickly get my phone out and text Jay.
'In kitchen' I send keeping it simple. Something tells me Joshua Morelli is going to pull a move on me. Something by the way he is eyeing up my body and approaching me with no shirt on his eyes locked onto me. I shift uncomfortably and grasp the door handle. Opening the door.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAjCQSvKHEbx
"I forgot Taylor" he sighs and he is right behind me.
38Please respect copyright.PENANArwGUm7FUTa
"You have three boyfriends already" he whispers in my ear and I'm instantly angered.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAyeVIq2auI9
"No just the one" I retort turning to face him. He smiles and raises his hands up.
38Please respect copyright.PENANApWzDUZAmoY
"Don't be a dick just because I beat you at pool" I say.
38Please respect copyright.PENANApGNqpSDGmq
"Rematch" he smiles and then looks over my shoulder smiling.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAWd49nKpPSb
"Ah boyfriend number one" he says.
38Please respect copyright.PENANA4BVKvFtegQ
"Have some respect, he's not just my boyfriend he's the love of my life" I say and seeing him smirk makes me angrier.
38Please respect copyright.PENANA9nues4PuAj
"Okay babe?" Jay instantly touches me and turns me to face him when he reaches me.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAaXRdUByN0n
"Yep fine" I say. He's eyeing Josh and wondering where his shirt is.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAsor3q868Ny
"Taylor is clumsy and she got drink everywhere" Josh says and I bite down on my tongue.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAyPRdsd9reI
Jay doesn't rise to him he just watches me and I nod.
"Let's go find the others" I say.
