The Town Plaza

Taylor

I smile and he takes my hand. “Yes I am.” I say. We walk down the street to the club. I can hear the music playing as we walk to it. I cannot help but smile as we walk down the street and into the building. He opens the door for me and we walk in. We go into the center of the floor and we begin to dance. Just as we start to dance the music slows down for a slow song. I smile as he takes my hand and I put my hands on his neck.

Alex

I smile and hold her close, trying to remember when the last time I danced was. Prom, right? Eh. That was a horrible experience...

Taylor

He holds me close and I lay my head on his shoulder as we sway back and forth. This moment is perfect. He pulls me off his shoulder then spins me around. I laugh a little. He pulls me close and dips me.

Alex

I have no clue what I'm doing, but it makes her smile. I mimic moves I'd seen on TV a few times and she giggles a little. Maybe this isn't so bad after all...

Taylor

The longer we dance, the happier I am. The happier I am the more I like him. We have been dancing for a while and most people have left. There are a few other couples in the club, but not many. I am laying on his shoulder again and my eyes start to get heavy. I try to stay awake, but it is really hard. I wrap my arms around his neck and readjust my head. I close my eyes and think of the great day we had. Every second I am with Alex, I feel safe.

Alex

Things slow down and the club empties little by little. Taylor falls asleep standing with her head on my shoulder and I smile, kissing her forehead. I scoop her up and take her back to the secret place. Laying her on one of the couches, I drape a blanket over her and sit on the one across.

"Night, Taylor," I whisper.

Taylor

I feel something cover me. “Goodnight Taylor.” Alex says. I open my eyes and see we are in our secret spot.

I turn over on my side and see Alex looking at me. “Will you lay with me?” I ask him.

Alex

I flash a smile and cross the room. Without moving her blanket, I lay at her side and twine our hands, smiling at her.

Taylor

I smile as he walks over and lays at my side. He twines his hand with mine and I lay my head on his chest. One of my legs is on top of his. His free hand twirls my hair. I do not want to fall asleep now, I might miss something. He kisses my fore head and I smile. “ I am glad I woke up.” I say.

Alex

I smile, setting my forehead against hers and looking into her eyes, "Me too."

Taylor

“Can I tell you something?” I ask him.

“Sure.” He says. His eyes are staring into mine.

“I really care about you. I care about you more than I have care about a person before.” I stop and realize that how I feel about hims is bigger than just liking him. “What I am trying to say is, I think I am falling in love with you.”

Alex

My heart - as girly as it sounds - flutters in my chest at that. I flash a smile and roll on my side to better face her. I set an arm underneath her head and kiss her forehead.

"I think I am too," I whisper, drawing her hair out of her face.

Taylor

“I think I am to.” He says. He looks into my eyes and brushes the hair from my face. He thumb gently brushes my cheek as he brushes the hair away. He kisses my forehead. After he pulls away I lean in and kiss his lips. He put one hand on my face to steady me. I do not pull away, so the kiss does not end.

Alex

She pulls me into a kiss and I set my hand on the side of her face. It lasts for longer than I can remember and I make no notion to stop it, allowing her to be the judge of that.

Taylor

I just keep kissing him. No one pulls away or stops, so we just keep kissing. Until his hand drops down to my neck and I burst out laughing. I am so ticklish it is not even funny. I put my and over my neck and try to stop laughing.
