Chapter Thirty-One

Taylor slid the card key through the hotel room door and opened it and allowed me to walk in ahead of him. I had been surprised, but relieved, that he had just gotten a regular hotel room. The presidential had been nice, but overwhelming. The layout of this hotel room was a lot similar to the ones I was used to. A bathroom area, two twin beds, a couple tables and chairs, and a T.V.

“Thank-you.” I breathed a sigh of relief as I stepped inside.

“You sound more excited now than when you had the suite.”

“I am.” I went over to the bed and ran my fingers across the cover. Taylor closed the door behind him and leaned casually against the door.

I glanced up, he was watching me again. Arms crossed, observing me as I pulled my hand back away from the bed. I tucked a piece of hair behind my ear and cleared my throat.

“Did you pick up your Tony’s?”

“No, I’ll do that on my way out.”

“Not even going to offer me a drink?

He gave me a flat look.

“You drink?” It wasn’t really a question.

“No.”

“Then why would I offer?”

“You didn’t know I didn’t drink.” I countered.

“Call it intuition.”

I nodded and casually looked around the room again. I looked up as I heard Taylor shift off of the door. He took slow, careful steps toward me. A curious expression played across his face.

“What?” I asked, suddenly self-conscious.

“Nothing.” He said, closing the last few steps between us. “I was just thinking about where we had left off upstairs before Jerry very rudely interrupted us.”

“I think…I was just about to deny you a kiss.” I teased.

“Oh no,” He said, shaking his head, and gently wrapping his arms around me. “That’s not how I remember it.” He remarked in a low voice.

I met his gaze evenly, picking up on the traces of joking in his eyes. I wrapped my arms around his neck. Was that his heart pounding, or mine?

“I think I was confused by the altitude.” I argued.

“Well, we’re not as high up now.” He teased, and leaned in. I closed my eyes and this time felt his lips against mine. He was soft and gentle, he kept me close to him. His lips moved over mine. With some pressure, my lips parted for him. He tensed but didn’t stop. I ran my fingers through his hair and his grip on my waist tightened. A small groan escaped his lips.

A shrill ring cut through the moment, both of us jumping back away from one another. He swore and jammed a hand into his pocket to take his phone out.

“What, Jerry?” He barked, annoyance coloring his tone. “Ok…fine. Be there in fifteen.” He sounded defeated as he ended the call before getting a farewell out of Jerry.

“They want all the actors of the film I’m working on to come in for an interview.” He muttered, dropping the phone back into his pocket. “I need to get up there.”

“Ok.” My voice was hardly a peep.
