Taylor’s POV
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqHx2F2BoV
“Do you know why it's called Maroon bells" I ask Jay. We've taken a small break to admire the view and mostly for me to get my legs working again.
Who knew hiking was such a killer on your thighs ? I had imagined that being a dancer in the prime of her life would give me an advantage however I am very much feeling the burn. Jay however hasn’t even a hair out of place, he’s not breathless and I’m sure that his muscles are helping him along.

"Yea" he says smiling at me irresistibly turning to face me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3yDwn3iVB
"When you grow up with a father who finds a fact for every moment you tend to collect a lot of general stupid knowledge" he snorts.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96VCCJ3pL9
"The mudstone rock is responsible for the maroon part of the name because of the red colour and the bells part was connected to some accident that happened but we won't go into that now" he says.

I grab my phone and snap a picture of our current view. How the peaks frame the shot in the distance and the light snow, it’s not all that cold or maybe I’ve just gotten used to the temperature.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wvKKZNNdT
"Here" he says gesturing for the phone.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVN7m3f4Gl
"You are not escaping photographic evidence in those boots" he laughs snapping a pic of me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQhhqVqKg3
We begin walking again. Me following him through the trails. After a while he begins his song again and I start to wish I could play guitar along with him. However the mud laced with snow and ice is pretty slippy and I would probably fall holding the guitar and playing at the same time. I glance down at my boots and I'm thankful for his forethought when I see the mud all up the sides of them.

I hum along with him instead. I look at the amount he's carrying and marvel at his strength walking with it all on his back. Jay has a beanie on, and a hiking jacket and oddly he still looks like a hunk. He stops shortly. And I hear water ahead.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45RwFqdZd8
I peer over his shoulder and see the view of the lake accompanied by a large moose.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExpSUJZ9eX
"We shouldn't approach it" he says whispering and I clutch onto him.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hmNQFZqnm
"It's wonderful" I say taken aback by its sheer size.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssyNVNvKl5
"There's bears too" he snickers upon looking at my expression.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaPM6JwCDd
"Black bears, we will be fine" he says and I laugh.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ7uAqWBlU
“It wouldn’t be our first bear encounter” I laugh rewinding him of the time that we both saw a bear whilst travelling in his car having saved Ross from a motorcycle accident.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqM94TavQf
“Taylor” he whispers halting and kissing me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aWtwHmWN3
“I’m so lucky” he says almost to himself before he begins walking again up the hill. I make sure to place my feet carefully each time having slipped several times already.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YafbOXeuc
"We're heading to a campsite, we'll set up there. But first shall we get a picture near the top" he smiles back at me. And I must look a state, red nosed and muddy. Yet he still looks at me with devotion.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9u6o6X4Va
"Are we at the top yet" I smile at him cheekily and he laughs, complete belly laughs. Glances at the top of the mountain and then back at me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEIhs9lB2m
"Not a chance, we'll need to sleep all night and then aim for the top tomorrow." He says turning back to the trail and continuing on.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbdDCZ1Fad
"I know of a great view though and I wanna take you there" he calls back and I can just imagine his wide smile.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvJ27uCEEE
We walk for what feels like hours, I'm distracted by his song and occasionally I sing along with him. I take in my surroundings to the full. No phones or distractions.
"I need to tell you this is both the most exhaustive and enthralling experience I have ever had" I say laughing as I pace behind him. We encounter moose, mule deer and even a raccoon on our travels.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWASNFOq5pX
He laughs and turns around to face me.
"Want a break" he says smiling.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRktpjWlY6
"No let's plow on" I tell him and he kisses me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvBopdYYs7
"You're doing exceptionally well" he says with a hint of devotion.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPNmXn4dvG
"We're about 10 minutes out" he calls back to me. The excitement in his voice evident. His pace quickens and I cannot help but to feel absolutely enthralled by his sense of adventure.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA9G2GiuxM
Eventually after what feels like hours yet we have only been walking for a further twenty minutes he stops and just stares ahead. At first I worry that we're lost until I stand next to him and see the view.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAaMM3LDYI
"Maroon lake" he explains and he's breathless just like me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GR7BWaVdx
With the peaks in the background, the water glistening below. I listen to the water, the calls of the wildlife and I breathe in the air. I turn to face him and his eyes are glistening.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzK0Kccq1dP
"Taylor" he says with eyes full of emotion.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivfxMYJ7d7
"I am going to spend the rest of my life with you" he says and he grasps both sides of my face delicately. He says it almost as if he's fully convinced himself that this is happening. That this is real. I've said yes and we are going to be together forever, just us.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJASyL6q9gY
"I could not be more happy to say that" he says and tears stream down both of our cheeks.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe1ACeWx9X
"I love you with every single bone in my body" he says and he kisses me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJbQuY30GF
When he pulls back he looks at me directly in my eyes. And a wide smile spreads over his face. He grasps his phone out of his jeans pocket and turns it on us, snapping a few pics of us.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQnRlipDCQ
"I'm going to send them to my parents including my dad" he laughs showing me the selfies.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrAHwOxcXa
"Taylor you have managed to do the impossible" he says laughing whilst typing out a message to his father.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91bmr5evU8
"What? made you contact your father?" I say laughing.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsylouKN8I
"No you made our relationship better somehow; he's more contactable" he laughs.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11QH4naBoJ
"I've just put; we're in Aspen and we bought a lodge" he says laughing.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmToiCRoW6
"He will ask for all of the details." He says as an afterthought.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziHkkbXDdl
He pockets his phone and turns back to me. I kiss him whilst holding my phone up to take a pic of us with the peaks in the background.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojrJqkfZms
"I'm gonna post this one, to my mum but also to social media" I say smiling.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtByIMd8qpJ
I upload it with the caption: Aspen + Jay = happiness. Call me corny but I like it.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOkrf3T37J
"The plan is to watch the sunset from camp, cosy by a fire so on the way there we're gonna collect some sticks" he smiles
"Are you ready for your payback by the way" he says eyeing me quickly and blushing.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrG6fII8Bw
"What payback" I laugh and bite my lip. I know he's going to touch me, I can see it in his stare. And I also know that he means for touching him in the cafe, I have to hear him say it.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBk2QROilb
"Hand job in a cafe, seriously hot" he says softly once he's close to me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtUan1VuJc
"I want you" he says in my ear seductively and I am at his mercy.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLObGglu5rw
"Now" he smiles and his hand slips under my dress quickly swiping my panties to the side.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Pn7HkMsxo
"You are always ready for me" he whispers in my ear. He picks me up so I'm straddling him and carries me over to a more secluded spot. He sets me down hiking my dress up slightly.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21iyFUgxzI
He kisses down my chest pulling my dress down slightly at the top and paying my nipples lots of attention with his tongue.
"You drive me crazy" he says kissing down my tummy.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiisb9NgEj
He pauses at my lower tummy kissing it before hooking his arms around my hips. He kisses around my hips, just light kisses. All over my hips, all over my inner thighs. I push my hips up waiting for him to lick me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6sKE4mXUa
"What would you like Taylor?" he asks me smiling.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcUgciEHMF
"Jay" I moan.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4BcnGRZEa
"Taylor" he says kissing me again lightly.
"Would you like this" he says and then he slowly runs his tongue over me.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntazKvnda2
I moan and he smiles.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1YYexemy6
"Shhh" he says softly.
"Baby you taste so fucking good" he says running his tongue over me again.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4zOtiepOD
He continues with his tongue and I feel myself getting close. My hands in his hair as I'm calling out his name.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5jHyPUrsd
"Grind into me" he says softly. I'm beginning to think that he loves doing this; and that I am the luckiest women alive. I do as I'm told. I grind into him and it takes me all the way.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk50wbfK4F
"Yes, beautiful" he says as I'm mid orgasm.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRUiwnVJK0
"Jay" I say as I'm finishing.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBeHumdhwi
I finish gasping and grabbing at his hair.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyD9Cby5ya
"We're square again" he says with a smile. He places my panties back on and smooths out my dress very smug with himself.
131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVVPmPzauC
When he stands, he extends his hand and helps me up. We follow our trail to the campsite and I begin thinking about the food and the comforting fire before we have even got there.
