Taylors POV
23Please respect copyright.PENANAma7v5dp8ng
Rachel instigated that we go and spend some time outside alone. I know why. There's only one real reason she would want to be away from the attention of the guys. Gossip. I am prepared to be grilled.

"What happened this morning, spill. Ross is going insane and you're looking at him making him squirm" she laughs.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA6RO7qeMJdC
I sigh and look down at my heels. Mocktail in my hand. I'll tell her the lot.
23Please respect copyright.PENANALBAglIO6fl
"Bestie" she smiles as a tear falls down my cheek.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAnWlcjRaLpy
"It's okay to love them both. It is Ross after all" she sighs.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA67OrjiBekg
"Yeah but this is crazy" I tell her.
23Please respect copyright.PENANANAoMP8Yquk
“What has happened?” She asks a touch exasperated.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAhBcIMSi4JA
"This morning I was cooking and he came down and we went for a walk in the garden because I needed to calm him down" I begin realising I need to tell her about the night we had too.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA09IcrygPgq
“He came onto you or?” She asks concerned. I smile at her. The care is evident on her face and I reflect on how far we have come as friends.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAv6b8wKUMTc
"I needed to calm him because one thing led to another in the middle of the night and he ended up walking in on me and Jay having sex" I tell her.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAqahBc6znfA
“Jay was cooking for me, in the kitchen and we ended up you know. And Ross waked in. After Jay was done I climbed on Ross and we had sex all the way.” I admit.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAC3MlMMU8FG
"What!? That's crazy" she says.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA5lSx7iJPqZ
“Not the craziest, I can’t keep away from him. He looks at me and I know I’m in love with Jay. I’m having his babies and marrying him but Ross tries all the time to move on me. He was worried this morning because he used no protection last night. And I think it’s sort of escalated his feelings” I explain.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAD4ajDdPUVM
“Shit, that’s not possible though right?” she says and I look at her blonde hair in the moonlight. It’s pretty and I wish that he would just fall for her instead. She looks at me with utter jealousy, just briefly and I know that she would do anything for Ross to want her.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAdt2t8muc52
"I don’t think so” I say.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA02zhXmsstE
"There's more ?" She says seriously.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAC15L4aOya6
“Isn’t there?” She probes.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAq64lvicpx2
"Ross walked me out here this morning to tell me that he loved me, that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. He got down on one knee and proposed to me with a ring he bought back home." I say.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAdtCf2DJiXz
"He what ?!" She practically squeals.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAzKz3QUM1g2
She cries and it’s really unexpected. I can tell that she thought things were building between them. And her first reaction is one of hurt. I look away just knowing this will set our friendship back, a little.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAkHFvSsGrwE
“What did he say ? What was the ring like ?” she squeals and I can’t tell what is going on in her head.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAjcGeDXtja5
“He said a lot; that he wanted to spend his entire life with me. The ring was classic, gold with diamonds.” I say.
23Please respect copyright.PENANATjVe2Eywmw
“What did you say” she asks.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAdgZpEESwOM
“Rachel I’m pregnant, I love Jay and I’m marrying him” I say resolutely.
23Please respect copyright.PENANARYB7u1wTH5
“But now Ross is messing with my head, he came up before dinner, and” I say softly.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAR8qEhJuNsg
“And what?” She asks.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAUJxD57Nnih
“He called me Taylor Elena Peterson, he told me more of the same and I asked him if he meant it” I say.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA5mwkprTCjM
“Taylor this is wow” she sighs, breathing in a deep breath of air.
23Please respect copyright.PENANABYlEaGjDw6
“He means it for sure” she says and I nod.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAfsdKtqVVVT
“Explains why he’s looking at you like you’re his” she sighs.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAcpc1TE57hA
“I’m not his” I say.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAXCIRpVuWBT
We begin walking back and the silence gets to me.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAav3BuVbkQj
“He’s wonderful Taylor. It’s a privilege to be wanted so completely by two wonderful men” she says softly.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAnwgWE3UoSW
“He deserves more than me” I say.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAJylgfZc183
We walk back in quietly and I notice the guys are standing now, pouring whiskey. Rachel squeezes my hand as we walk in spotting Ross staring at me. She looks at him knowingly. He sighs running his hands through his hair, he knows I told her. His skin has tanned off and his hair has natural highlights. His blue eyes match his blue shirt and I look at him briefly.
23Please respect copyright.PENANANBvCuAhOHT
“My beautiful wife” Jay says and I dare to look at Ross.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAoClI403KiU
I embrace Jay and his hands trace up my back and through my hair.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAtsGEWtKYOZ
“How is the strip routine coming along” I laugh. He looks at me with a devilish expression on his face.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAWbbI3tCsv9
Jay looks dashing; a full suit on and he could easily be a sexy butler stripper. Especially with his body. I sigh and let him pull me into his body. Breathing in his cologne. Rach stands with Nate.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA6OWGFMhjYU
“Oh come on we’ll strip if you do” Rachel laughs.
23Please respect copyright.PENANArnVqW7jvl8
“No we know where that ends up getting us” I say.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAzkrUZWSlvW
“Oh Taylor we can just get dressed again afterwards” she laughs.
23Please respect copyright.PENANADEcxt3UZzy
I sigh and put on some music.
23Please respect copyright.PENANABrNPzvTODE
“I do have a strip song” I say laughing.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAtbJR3EU67P
I walk back over to Jay seductively and he watches me, biting his lip.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAI86TT2MQrt
“But I thought the whole point of strippers on a stag do was for them not to be your fiancée” I chuckle.
23Please respect copyright.PENANArDg3HTPgLW
The second I reach him his hands are on me and I smile kissing him.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAVadEN1wHr2
“No I’d like you for my stag do” he smiles.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAGdS2RF4Erz
“I’ll give you a private show” I whisper.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAxFidj7NGOn
He smiles and I bite his lip lightly.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAXvFx1XBsxN
“What’s the song” Rachel laughs.
23Please respect copyright.PENANApOmlkaAr28
“Maybe I’ll put it on in a bit” I pull away from him and wink at her.
