Taylor's POV
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC22v0Osm4Z
A vintage car that has a drop top so that we can cruise through the bustling city at night is the perfect carriage for a date. Jay's car is a light powder blue, I can feel the warm breeze throwing my hair back as he drives us past all of the palm trees. The hours of sun that we have enjoyed have now passed and it is beginning to set, leaving behind a warm orange glow.

Yet it's still warm and I'm wearing my pale blue bikini top with daisies printed on it and a pair of high waisted loose fitted jeans and trainers. I glance down at my treble clef tattoo on my ribs and smile, it's healed fully.

Jay is wearing a shirt which he hasn't done up, it's pale blue and I chuckled when I saw him pull it on because we are wearing the same colour. He has a lot more tattoos than me, he almost has a full sleeve on one of his arms and he has several over his chest. They suit him, they're edgy and they add to his body. He has some tribal patterns, intricate vines and a few butterflies. He also has a very tiny wave on his hip which he says was a shoutout to when he used to be into swimming and surfing. Sometimes I just stare at the patterns and I have to remind myself that staring is actually kind of rude. Even though he is mine, completely and utterly.

He lights up a cigarette, the drop top is down and his arm is rested on the side of the door as I watch the patterns on his arm briefly. Lifting his hand to pull on the cigarette I study the expressions on his face noticing how he flits through emotions and wondering what he may be thinking. I smile watching him push his blonde hair back, driving one handed whilst smoking his cigarette.

"Stop looking at me like that or I'm going to pull over and have my way with you" he laughs glancing at me and then looking back at the road. I smirk and look out at the ocean in the distance. The sun falling under the horizon line. And I can't imagine sharing this moment with anybody else.

"You look hot" he says smiling rubbing my thigh briefly.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8kn6s2Vnj
"I do ?" I ask him slightly shyly.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ao5RYYsXT
"Fuck yes Taylor. You're literally wearing a bra out. However you still look super classy" he smiles and winks at me. I push my brunette hair over my shoulders and he looks briefly at my neck, I feel the heat in my cheeks and realise I'm blushing.

Once he swings the car into a bay, I look out over the windscreen and realise that the sea is just down the road and I imagine myself and Jay strolling down to meet the waves later. I am wearing a bikini after all. Jay takes my hand casually his shirt swinging open in the breeze revealing his chest, the waves crash in the distance and the light breeze makes the stifling weather comfortable.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb6mpx5aFP
Jay guides me into a rowdy bar, one hand rested on my bare back. The sign outside informs the public that they serve the best cocktails in town and looking over my shoulder I wink at him telling him that I can be sure a good judge of that claim.

The food smells divine, it's Mexican and they are playing dance music over the speakers. There are a few patrons at the bar and overall the atmosphere is relaxed and informal. I'm sure this is a place where people end up dancing on tables and I'm here for that.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAzIejw9uy
"Sir madam, welcome. Table for two?" The owner says welcoming us, he has a warm smile and seems friendly. Naturally dark olive skin mixed in with green eyes. A few patrons push to get closer to the bar and I soak up the atmosphere, the rustic terracotta walls and the beams across the ceilings.

Jay follows him to a table by the windows which looks out over the ocean views in the distance. It couldn’t be more romantic, he holds my chair out for me and I take a seat.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6XwWQATLn
"I already know what you're ordering” I say smiling up at Jay from my menu. This isn’t a white tablecloth kind of place yet the food I can imagine is five star. Made with love and patience.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQE543SvGA
"Am I that typical?" He laughs out loud and I brush his forearm with my hands.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFSP78ABFU
"No I just know you by now Jay" I laugh back.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKG4aykU4w
"Go on then" he says reaching his hands further across the table to touch mine.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P3wiC10y9
"Steak" I smile back at him rubbing his arms. Jay could eat steak forever and not be bored.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyUcohEJQs
"You got me." He giggles and I wink at him.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzjZX8Kx4h
"I'm however going for enchiladas something tells me that here they will be amazing" I say smiling looking over at the open plan kitchen that is bustling with chefs.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedTYYqmnKt
When the waitress comes to collect our order, I ask for a Pina colada. It's time to judge that claim of best cocktails in the whole of town. I briefly think about Rachel and smile at how she would behave in this place. I'm sure that she would be taking shots at the bar. Singing along, or trying to dance to the salsa tunes.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXYGX5tdE4
"What are you smiling at" he laughs.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYNLPV0IAE
"Rach. Just how she would be drunk already if she were here" I say to him and he scoffs.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IVvd52T6B
"She sure would" he sighs.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe2dfz1kQ4
The Pina colada comes, and I must say I'm impressed when I look at it. It has a pink straw and a wedge of pineapple, really the way it is presented is gorgeous.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E46HmNmcL
"Hey wait" Jay smiles grabbing his phone and aiming his camera at me.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0421lbiNDI
He takes a snap of me with my drink and I demand to see it. He passes me the phone and I look at myself. Jay is right, tonight I do look hot. My tanned skin and long brown hair which trails way past my chest.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQB72V5OC8n
"You're beautiful, get used to it" he smirks looking at me.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowKsr7Rz2v
“And you’re model worthy” I retort turning the camera around to him. Taking a few snaps of him sitting there with his shirt open. This place is past the whole no smoking inside rule and he lights up and stretches his arm behind the chair next to him relaxed. I get the urge to climb onto his lap but I suppress it for now. Not here. Instead I pass him the phone and he glances at the pictures.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiXtiPj7Ld
"I like your picture better" he says and there is that stare again. The one that makes me yearn to be in his personal space, his hands all over me pulling me into him. Jay sends me my pic and I break the rules and head on over to social media. I tell him I'm making it my profile pic and he chuckles.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjD63pD4Nu
"But it is a good pic; and I'm only uploading a picture" I smirk in protest.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFEeWQTyV1
"Tay do as you please, enjoy yourself. There are no rules" he says easily pulling on his cigarette.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXQOUeUai8
I upload the picture and quickly check up on what's been going on in my feed. A few pictures of the others at parties, I smile suddenly feeling like I miss our friends just a little. But not any of the drama. I place my phone back down and ignore it again. Looking back up at Jay and how he is casually sitting and smoking. It strikes me how relaxed and happy he looks. Not that he isn't happy back home. But just how chilled he is, it's refreshing.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXHl72rV7n
Our mains arrive and he orders me another Pina colada. I hadn't realised how easy it was to drink. I'm now convinced that they are the best cocktails in town. The claim is true and I count myself lucky at being able to sample some of the best cocktails in OZ.

As I had imagined the food is exquisite and as we are finishing up and thinking about what desert we want the bar gets busier. All of the tables around us are filled and the atmosphere is spot on.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyi32wpZyw
We order a trio of deserts to share. Jay scoops up some of the chocolate ice cream and spoons it into my mouth. I smile at him feeling just a little bit tipsy.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj9ngAA9gy
"You are so sexy" he says smiling scooping up some salted caramel cake and proceeding to feed me it. His glorious blue eyes and rugged looks, I find I am transfixed by him, there's a lot of people around us but when I'm with him, I only ever see him.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5Zg28ught
"You know you need to eat too" I smile at him.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJqYpHTWo1
"Here you go babe" I say feeding him back. A whole dollop of vanilla ice cream alongside some chocolate cake. He swallows keeping my eye contact and then we both laugh.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroYbpifo92
I'm sure that we make lots of people feel sick, maybe we even make some people sigh remembering the love that they used to share with their spouse when it was young and fresh. We're at that stage whereby everything is intense and exciting, even though we've been together now for a year Jay manages to keep everything special. I giggle glancing up at the man of my dreams as he bites his lip before getting the cheque.
153Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX9QZhWmHd
“The most beautiful, sexy woman on the planet is all mine” he whispers stroking my hair before he goes to pay at the raucous bar and I stare at his back as he walks through the place shirtless. Tattoos, taut muscles and wild blonde hair. He’s my wild boy and I will keep him to myself for the rest of our days.
