TAYA's POV : I pulled my hand away as soon as I could, causing Blake to flinch. He followed my gaze and his body stiffened as soon as he saw the figure standing by the door. "Blake, I'm sorry..." I started and he turned his head back to me. "I think I need some time to think it over," "What do you mean? I just told you all those things and you—" "And I'm saying I need some time to let it all sink in," I paused for a second before saying, "Okay?" "But..." he looked as if he wanted to say something, but he took in a deep breath and let out a long sigh instead. Finally, he muttered, "Fine..." "Excuse me," I slipped past him and made my way over to the door. I was well aware that Blake was still watching my every move. The whole room too, I could almost hear all the whispers. "You came," I said as soon as I was an arm's

TAYA’s POV : The silence in the air was deafening. None of us were blinking or moving or saying anything. And all the while, my hands were dying to touch and to roam Judah’s perfectly sculpted body. My heart was beating fast and my breathing felt ragged. I wanted to feel more of him, I wanted to taste more of him. I wanted his mouth on my skin and his hands to touch me where my stomach was twisting… Oh God. What am I thinking?! “Hey, Blondie,” he said suddenly, breaking the silence. “Yeah…?” I watched his reaction cautiously, anxious to know where his mind was going. Judah’s expression was stern and serious. His eyes were hooded and dark. "I think we should get outta here," he said. "Oh? Why?" This is it… is he gonna ask me to

TAYA's POV : Do I trust him? What was that supposed to mean? I didn’t know what to make of it and I was still lost in my thoughts, when suddenly and without warning, Judah’s hand reached for my face and he pulled me in. His lips found mine and he kissed me with such tenderness and fervor. He had never done that before and for a split second, I forgot how to breathe. I was caught in a daze, and he wasn’t showing any signs of slowing down. Instead, he then pushed me back against the wall and his strong body was pressed up against me. This ignited a spark in my brain and I immediately threw my hand over his neck and I kissed him back with everything I got. He groaned lowly as I parted his lips with the tip of my tongue. My tongue delved into his mouth and we tasted like blood and cigarette, which was a horrible combination, but I didn't care. I didn’t want to sto

TAYA’s POV : “You okay, Tay?” Hallee asked as I stopped my tracks in front of the school steps. “Yeah, just give me a minute,” I breathed. Today was Monday, which meant it was back to school day. I had been going to this school for almost four years and I had never been this nervous to enter the building before.  What was I nervous about? Oh, I don’t know, maybe seeing Judah? The boy that gave me my first orgasm and I don't even know what we are? After taking a few deep breaths and making sure that my clothes looked alright, I finally took a step into the big building. Hallee rolled her eyes at my dramatic antics and followed me into the halls. We walked straight to our lockers, and I was anxious with every step I took, I wasn’t sure how to act around Judah at this point.  &ldq

TAYA's POV : "Where the hell is he?" Hallee was literally screaming at the whole auditorium backstage. "None of us can reach him," Gabe answered. It was performance day and it was chaos. Judah didn't show up for the call time and we waited and waited, and he never came. We tried calling him, we looked everywhere for him, but none of us could find him. "He's not picking up my calls either," I said as I threw my stupid phone on the dressing room table. "Guys, we're fifteen minutes away. What should we do? Should we cancel—" "We can't cancel the freaking show, Patrice!" Hallee yelled at our stage manager. “Do we have an understudy for Jack?” Gabe asked. “We don’t have enough people in the theater club,” Hallee hissed. “So no, we don’t have an understudy,&rd
