For: OriginallyImperfect

Pairing: Traylor

Rating: M

Song: Dairy Alicia Keys

Falling in love was the last thing on my mind when I met her. If I was completely honest I just wanted to hit and send her on her way. But there was something about her that would not let me let her go. It could be the fact that she didn't give it up like most females did when you took them out on a first date with an unlimited amount of money to buy what they wanted, and an endless amount of people waiting to make it happen. It could be that she is fiercely independent while still letting a man feel like a man. It could be that no matter what I told to her, no matter what feelings I left exposed to her deep penetrating gaze, no matter how dark the secret I knew that she would keep them guarded and between us. I could be myself with her. Someone I haven't been able to be since I entered the NBA.

But for some reason untold I kept her at arm's length. As much as I didn't want to let her go, and let her leave to find somebody worthy of her love, I couldn't bring myself to trust that she wouldn't be like every other female that I had encountered. That maybe just maybe the loyalty that she had shown me was some kind of show to gain my trust just before she turned my world upside down, and I would wake one morning to find my secrets and fears splashed all over TMZ or .

I shook off all thoughts as my cell phone rung…

"Yeah"

I couldn't help but smile as her melodic laugh flowed over the line.

"Is that how your mother taught you how to answer the phone, Mr. Bolton?"

"No, not really but she'll never find out that I do, will she?"

"Your secret is safe with me."

My heart started to beat in overtime. Something about her words put me on edge, especially with my earlier thoughts.

"So beautiful, what's going on?" I asked softly.

"Well, I'm at this deli right down the street from your place, I had a lunch date, and I was wondering if you wanted some company? I'll even bring sweets since the season is over."

"A lunch date?" my voice hardened

"It's not what you're thinking, Troy."

"It doesn't really matter what I think Taylor, it's not like we're official." I snapped back.

"O…KAY you know what. I'm on my way to your place because it sounds like we need to have a talk."

I hung up on her and went to wait out on the porch for her to pull up. I didn't have to wait long. Five minutes later she pulled up looking upset and completely breathtaking all at the same time. Her loose curls blew in the wind as she walked to stand in front of me.

"So what has your basketballs tight and full of hot air?"

"Nothing…"

"Open conversation, Troy."

I looked up at her words. She was smirking down at me knowing she had pulled the ultimate trump card. Since the beginning "open conversation" between myself and Taylor had open the door for us to speak freely about all things past and present without consequence or judgment. She was throwing me a bone, giving me to the opportunity to speak my peace without there being any drama despite the fact that I had pissed her off by snapping at her over the phone.

"I said nothing, Taylor."

"And I called bullshit…. Now, one more time, open conversation Troy."

"It's nothing."

"Fine"

She turned to leave and I ran after her, pinning her against her car.

"Get off of me, Troy."

"Where are you going?"

"I'm leaving."

"No, you're not."

"I suggest you move out of my way before I rip you a new one. I don't know what the hell is going on with you but you know my number. Call me when you get it together."

"Who was your lunch date with?"

"Why does it matter, we're not official."

"TAYLOR"

"Don't yell at me, those were your words not mine."

"Look I'm sorry. I'm having all of these crazy thoughts running through my head, and then you called saying you had a lunch date. I'm torn between jealousy and worry."

"Worry? I get jealousy, but why are you worried."

"Any girl before you has sold me out to gossip sites for quick cash, or simply for the sake of fifteen minutes of fame."

"I understand, but I'm not those girls. As a matter of fact, I'm not a girl at all; I'm a grown ass woman. What happens between me and you stays between you. I adore you Troy, what do I have to gain by betraying your trust in such a gross manner. If anything I have too much to lose. I would lose you."

I gripped her hips and pulled her as close to me as I could get her.

"I'm sorry. After being hurt, used, and betrayed it's kind of hard to just trust that maybe this time it'll be alright."

"And I get that baby, but that's the thing we won't be alright if you don't let me in all the way. Listen, I know you're Troy Bolton reigning NBA MVP, but to me you're so much more. You're the man that worships the ground his mother walks on, and still looks up to his father as if he's a super hero. You stepped out of the way so that you're high school sweetheart could have a shot at happiness with your best friend. And you spoil their kids, your god children, even though had you been selfish and not stepped aside they would have been yours. How can I not be loyal to such a man?"

I smiled as she cupped my face in her hands.

"I've never been one to do things halfway Troy. So I'm giving this my all. Everything I got. And for now I need you to meet me at least halfway baby. I know how hard it is to get over past hurts but I'm not the one that hurt you. I shouldn't have to pay for their mistakes. For one it's not fair and more importantly I would never do any of those things to you. I'll be like your human diary."

"Is that right?"

"Yep, your own little secret keeper with a banging body."

I laughed out loud.

"I'm here for as long as you want me. And I'm willing to help you over the pain of the past, but you got to trust me baby. I will never betray you. With me you don't have to be anybody but yourself because that's the man that I adore. And know that as much as you fear me hurting you, I fear the same thing. I could see myself loving you one day. I already care about you a hell of a lot more than I should at this point. You essentially have the power to break my heart."

I looked down into her eyes and saw the sadness and fear shinning in them. And just like that she had calmed my fears all while laying hers all out on the table. And I knew that I would never stop until I returned the favor… I wouldn't stop until her eyes shined with love and happiness. I wouldn't stop trying to make us work. I leaned into her kissing her hard and demanding her to respond. I heard her moan as I felt her fingers underneath my tshirt. She pulled back when oxygen was necessary.

"Maybe we should take this inside, unless you want to be plastered all over the gossip sites." She said smirking.

I slowly pulled her sundress up finally exposing her jewel tone lace panties to my gaze. I reached down with my free had to rub my thumb over her lace covered slit.

"It would be one hell of a story." I replied pushing her panties to the side and sliding two fingers into her.

"Troy… you… you gotta stop."

I moaned hearing her say my name.

"Not until you cum. One time baby that's all I want. Then I'll take you in the house and do all kind of unspeakable and nasty things to your body for as long as you want. Cum"

I pushed her hard sliding my thumb over her clit as my thrust got faster. I felt her clench tight around my fingers before she tensed and came all over them. I pulled out of her and immediately stuck my finger into my mouth loving the taste of her on my tongue. Taylor pulled me to her and kissed me, moaning as she tasted herself on my tongue.

I pulled out of the kiss and looked at her. I couldn't say for sure that there would be anymore fears or doubts but I knew for sure that as long as Taylor stayed just the way she was then we would be okay, that I would be okay. She called herself my secret keeper, but she was so much more. If I had to sum her up in one word it would simply be… Amazing.

I don't know how I feel about this one shot but here it is …. There are no more challenges so I will come back to this story when I have one…..
