| JESSIE: "Tay.." I groaned rolling over and throwing my arm over his waist. "Baby wake up for a minute.." I buried my head in the covers and against his chest. "Mmm.." what's wrong Jessie?" he asked his eyes still closed. "You okay?" "Yeah, Tay. Just tired, but I have to get up baby." "No. Stay here with me..you don't need to work out today do you?" he pulled me close and I chukled. "Tay..there isn't much that could pull me out fo this bed and your arms this morning." I told him and kissed the soft patch of hair in the middle of his chest. "But I think a doctor's appointment is a good excuse." "Shit Jess.." he held me away to look at me. "We're not late are we?" he asked. "No. But I was going to say if you wanted to stay and rest some more, I could go alone.." "No. Absolutely not. I'm getting up.." he kissed my forehead, then pulled the covers off both of us. "Come on baby.." he grinned. "Let's take a shower together and save on our water bill.." "Oh brother.." I rolled my eyes and laughed. "Okay... but let me go start some coffee first. We have a lot to do today.." I smiled and held my breath when he gave me his blinding, heartwarming, mine alone smile. "I know... Jess...tomorrow can't get here fast enough.." he said and kissed me sweetly. "I love you baby.." I told him. "Gonna go put the coffee on, be right back." I smiled up at him and kissed his cheek. I threw my robe on, ran downstairs and into the kitchen, then started a pot of coffee. I came back through the dining room, and smiled when I saw the open door to Tay's room. I went in and picked up the remainder of our clothes, then brought them upstairs and tossed them in the hamper on my way into the bathroom. Taylor had already started the shower and gotten in. "Jessie! Get in here baby...I'm lonely.." he stuck his wet head out the curtain and grinned. I giggled, dropped my robe on the floor, and pulled the cutrain aside. "Here I am baby..you know I wouldn't let you be lonely for long.." I smiled as he pulled me into his arms and yanked the curtain shut. He kissed me and then turned me so that I was under the spray. "Hurry Jess, I don't wanna be late. Then we'll have a couple of hours before we have to start running all over the place..." he said and then helped me wash everything, including my hair. I did the same for him, then we dried each other off and got quickly dressed and went downstaris to have our coffee, and a quick breakfast. |
| TAYLOR: Jess made a really good, quick breakfast while I poured coffee for us both. I was so content and happy to be here with her, my beautiful new wife. The thought of being able to call her that made my heart skip a beat, and she caught me smiling at her. "What's on your mind, baby?" she smiled. "If it's that good I think you should share." "Just thinkin' about how good it is to be home.." I told her, moving to stand behind her and putting my arms around her waist. I kissed her cheek as she put our breakfast on plates. She lifted her chin offering her cheek for another kiss. "I'm happy you're home, too. Here.." she turned in my arms handing me my plate. "Where do you want to eat, in here? Or in the dining room?" "Here.." I said and sat down on the stool in front of the island, then pulled the other one out for her to sit next to me. "Kay.." she sat down next to me and we talked and ate, then cleaned up together. When it was time for us to leave, Dave showed up at the door. "Hey Dave, come on in.." I said, shaking his hand. "Hi Dave.." Jess greeted him. "Coffee's ready if you want some..help yourself." "Thanks Jess." he told her and I followed him to the kitchen while Jess gathered up her things. "I know you two were looking forward to some time together, but news of you being home already has the paparazzi buzzing." he said and I groaned. "It sucks man, I know.." he said. "I put another guy with Jake, too. Since he's gonna be at the airport. And Gary is not to leave Watts alone with Keith, though I imagine she won't be alone much this week." |
| "That's good. But I don't see Zac leaving her side for long, especially when we have to go back out on the road.." I sighed, not wanting to think about it. "I figure that I'll stay with the girls while they do their thing today, and a couple other guys. Then you guys can have Keith and Gary and whoever else Jake wants. But Jake is so good at the bodyguard thing.." he shrugged. "Nobody told you?" I asked, amazed. "Told me what?" "Jake was the head bouncer at a really awesome club when I met him. Before they moved here, he WAS Jessie's bodyguard.." I told him. "The Intersection.." I grinned, remebering how Jess, figuratively, had knocked my feet out from under me the first time we went there. "Oh, that explains alot.." Dave grinned. "Ready guys?" Jessie appeared in the doorway, smiling. She took my breath away. She wore one of her short, thin strapped dresses, the light pink one, and flat leather sandals. She had her hair pulled back into a loose braid, the one lock falling forward into her face. She brushed it aside and tucked it behind her ear. She didn't have on much make up, just lip gloss I think, the same shade as her dress and she smelled like heaven. "Yeah..let's get going. Dave says it's a zoo outside.." I told her. "OH GOD! Already?" she groaned. "Sorry Jess.." Dave told her and then preceeded us out the door. He went in the car ahead of us with another of the guards while Jess and I rode in the truck. |
