Tell Me A Secret

It was a Thursday night, midnight. Unfortunately, Taylor wasn't sleep. She couldn't sleep, but this was not a normal could not sleep. Taylor was walking by the recreation center. She heard something; like a door closing. Taylor was curious so she went to go see what it was. She heard something else near the gym. Taylor walked towards the doors and slipped inside before they closed completely. She saw Chad in there playing basketball. Taylor didn't notice Chad saw her; he glanced at her and smiled. What was he planning?

Taylor found it very difficult to stop staring at him. She also found it very difficult to stand straight. Chad decided that if she was going to be there...he might as well show off. To make it more tortures for Taylor, he didn't have a short on. She couldn't control her thoughts. She leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. Chad walked towards her quietly so Taylor wouldn't hear him.

"Always the curious one," Chad said smirking.

Taylor jumped when she saw Chad standing in front of her.

"Oh, ha, ha! You know at times you could be such a show off," Taylor said.

"Only when I'm around you."

"Why are you here, Chad?"

"I couldn't sleep. What about you?"

"I couldn't sleep either."

They stood in silence for a couple of seconds.

"So, what is so great about playing basketball?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean is it just a guy thing?"

Chad slightly laughed, "No girls can play, too. You know that."

"I know but I just never understood why shooting a ball in a net is so interesting."

"Maybe it is just a guy thing."

"Let's play a game," Taylor smiled.

"What?"

"A dare. Whoever gets 20 points first, well of course wins and the loser has to tell a secret that no one else would know."

"Taylor, are you serious about this?"

"Yep!"

"Alright, ladies first," Chad said handing Taylor the ball.

The game began and Taylor was the first to attempt to make the first shot. Surprisingly without even a struggle she made it.

"I thought you said you couldn't play," Chad frowned.

"I never said that. I said I never understood it."

This is going to be one interesting game. Taylor and Chad were showing off big time. Neither one was going to give up. They laughed at moments and were just having fun running around the gym. About 30 minutes past and they were tied 18 to 18. Taylor had to ball. She had a perfect plan as well to end this. But Chad was one step ahead of her and he practically knew exactly what she was going to do. He just waited for the perfect time to make his move. Taylor successfully was able to start her plan off but then Chad stood there like he didn't know what was going on. He smiled and grabbed Taylor by her waist. He kissed her hard! Taylor dropped the ball and held him by his arms.

Chad pulled away from Taylor and both were out of breath.

"You never let anyone else win," Taylor whispered.

"There were no rules," Chad whispered back.

"Okay, well my deepest secret is that I've never stopped loving you and I have never been kissed like that by any other guy," Taylor said looking down.

"Not even…"

"Not even him. I couldn't trust him. I don't think I ever will."

"So I was your first?"

"Yes. And I'm glad you were."

"Really? Why?"

"Because you showed me what love was. You have never lied to me."

"I never thought that you would feel that way. Taylor, I still love you."

Taylor looked at Chad in astonishment. She didn't know what to do next. Then something hit Chad like a ton of bricks. He wasn't done yet. He ran over to her and grabbed her hand. He pulled her close.

"Chad…."

Before Taylor could say anything else, Chad's lips crashed on to hers. So much emotion was force in to that one kiss. Taylor responded back with the same force. She started to walk backwards and ended up against the wall. The pulled back just a little bit but then kissed again. Chad lifted her and pushed her against the wall, she wrapped her legs around his waist. Then Chad slowly started to kiss down her neck. Who knew playing a game would bring so much emotion and tension out of a person! Taylor's hands drifted down Chad's abs. It was torture for her. Chad came back up to her lips and kissed her once more. After pulling away for the last time, Chad slowly put her down and their foreheads touched but they were looking down at the ground.

"I'm sorry," Chad whispered.

"No, I wanted you to kiss me," Taylor whispered back.

"Are you okay with me?"

"Of course I am. I really have to go. I can't be late for work."

"Alright. I'll call you when you get off or when I get off?"

She nodded. Taylor kissed Chad once more and smiled at him. She left the recreation center feeling as if she just found the love of her life. Did she really? Duh!!! It's not a coincidence. I mean she is basically falling in love with a guy that she had a past relationship with. Yeah, they did turn around and came to the agreement to be friends but now it may turn out different.

Taylor went home and took a long hot shower. She had so much on her mind. Her feelings that she has for Chad are really getting out of control. She could never feel this way about any other man.
