I walked off the plane in Philadelphia with my backpack on my shoulder and looked for Zac. I saw him sitting in a chair next to Diana. There was something about Zac that seemed different but I was having trouble figuring out what it was as I walked up to them and smiled. Zac stood up and gave me a bear hug. It was during the hug that I figured it out. "When was the last time you shaved?" I smirked.

"Shut up." he smiled sheepishly as I let out a small laugh and let him go.

"He's growing a goatee." Diana sounded a little more than skeptical, making me laugh louder.

"You idiot! Shave." I ruffled his hair with a final laugh.

"No, I'll get more chicks this way."

"You don't need any more little girlfriends. Shave."

"I'll think about it."

"I'll do it for you while you're sleeping." I threatened as we walked towards the baggage claim.

"I'd like to see you try."

"Don't test me." I gave him a warning look and turned to Diana, "So Diana, how are you?"

"With seven kids, two of which are fighting worse then professional wrestlers, what do you think?"

I laughed. "I take it you aren't a happy camper." I smiled at her.

"You are correct. But I think my wrestlers are going to calm down for a couple weeks." She ruffled Zac's hair. We got my bag and went to the rental van. When we got to the hotel we would be staying at until the morning, Isaac and Avery were waiting for us in the lobby.

"Hey! How are you?" Isaac and I hugged.

"I'm fine. Sadie says �hi'. How are you?"

"I'm good." he smiled and let go. I then noticed that Avery had walked up to us.

"Hey Avery, what's up?" I smiled down at her.

"Hi, nothing. I just wanted to tell you that Tay's gonna be really mean to you. He's mad that you're coming with us." she said with a smile, knowing that I hate Taylor.

"I know he is. He called me and yelled at me last night."

"He did? He's a jerk."

"I know. So what's new with you? Huh?" I put an arm around her as we walked to the elevator's. She and I had become friends over the phone on the slight occasion when Zac fell asleep while we were talking.

"Well, Mike's mad at me right now because I didn't call him last night and I said I would but I was busy. So, now he's threatening to break up with me. It's all Ike's fault for making me late by taking an hour to find the perfect outfit for an interview." she smiled and put her arm around me. I looked at Isaac and cracked a smile. He looked down in shame.

"Well, if you ask me, any guy that wants to dump you because you didn't call him if you have a valid reason, isn't worth the effort." I smiled at Avery as we got to the tenth floor and got off the elevator. I let go of her.

"Can I talk to you later about it?"

"Okay." I waved as she ran down the hall to her room. Zac grabbed my hand and lead me down the hall to his room. As we went down the hallway, I saw Taylor through one of the open doors. He must have seen me too because we weren't even in the room five seconds and he was in there.

"I can not believe you came! You are such a bitch! I thought we agreed that you wouldn't!" he yelled at me.

"Tay, go hump a dog or something." Zac quipped as he started to shove him out of the room. Taylor pushed him out of the way and got in my face.

"I told you to stay home. Why are you here?"

"Because Zac wanted me here. Duh dumbass."

"Quit calling me that!"

"Quit calling me bitch."

"Eeeerrrrr!!!!!! You are so aggravating!!!" he exclaimed as he pulled at his hair. I smirked.

"Then, why are you talking to me?"

"Because.... I don't know! I'm an idiot I guess..." he looked down at the floor.

"If you two don't mind, I've gotta pee. Don't kill each other while I'm gone." Zac said over his shoulder as he disappeared into the bathroom. I watched him go before turning back to Taylor.

"Look, if you don't watch it, you're gonna give something away! Just stay away from me, and I'll stay away from you and we'll be okay. Okay?" I ordered him.

"I.... I don't think that's possible.."

"And why not?" I folded my arms, not expecting his response. He grabbed my wrists and pulled me to him and pressed his lips on mine. I kissed him back, not thinking. Our tongues mingled as we wrapped ourselves in each other's arms. I didn't want to admit it at the time, but it felt good to kiss him again. I was beginning to enjoy the taste of him and the feel of his soft hands roaming across my skin. I heard the bathroom door open and we quickly moved apart. Zac didn't notice us thankfully. He was whistling as he came out of the bathroom and went into the bedroom for something. I glared at Taylor and slapped his arm. "You are an idiot! We almost got caught!"

"Sorry! I couldn't help it, I got caught in the moment!" he defended.

"Learn some control!" I growled before walking into the bedroom. Zac was searching in a bag for something. "What are you doing?"

"Looking for my notebook. I can't find it... I think it's in the bus. I'm gonna go down and look for it." he stood up and left the room. I watched him leave, kind of smiling at how weird he could be. I frowned when Taylor came into the bedroom with me.

"Don't you have anything else to do?" I asked, annoyed at him.

"Like what?"

"I don't know.. Fuck a few teenies, practice some music, maybe write a new song.."

"I told you I don't fuck teenies, I don't need anymore practice, and I already wrote two last night."

"Then why don't you call Miss Pris and see what she's up to?"

"What? You jealous?" he smirked.

"No, why would I be jealous of the girlfriend of my worst enemy?" I turned my back to him and started looking for the remote for the TV.

"If I'm your worst enemy then, why were you kissing me a couple minutes ago?" I sensed that he was standing right behind me but I didn't turn around.

"I wasn't, you were kissing me."

"Correct me if I'm wrong but I do believe I felt your tongue in my mouth..."

"Taylor, drop it." I warned, still with my back to him. I felt his arms encircle me and his hot breath on my neck.

"Oh come on, you know you want me..." he whispered in my ear seductively. I closed my eyes, getting a little turned-on by his closeness, but I wasn't about to let him know that.

"Can you please explain to me how you go from calling me a bitch to kissing me in under five seconds?" I whispered back, my voice slightly shaking.

"I work fast." He kissed my neck, making me shiver in pleasure.

"Taylor.. don't..." I whimpered, trying to control my breathing.

"Come on baby.. what do you say me and you go over to my room and do a little bump and grind. No one has to know.."

"No... I can't... leave me alone..." His lips on my neck were having an incredible affect on me. If he continued any longer, I knew I'd go down on him right there, even if Zac came back. By now he had pulled my shirt and bra strap off my shoulder and was currently kissing it as well as my neck. I moaned slightly.

"You don't really want me to do that." he whispered.

"Yes, I do.. What about the pretty, pretty princess? Won't she notice if you're in your room with another girl?"

"She left two days ago. She's back home in Tulsa being her normal bitchy self to someone else for a change."

"What? I thought you were �in love' with her..."

"I think not. Now how about we travel across the hall?" His lips again found my neck, the feel of his tongue slowly driving me insane.

"What if someone finds out?"

"No one will find out. I promise, Baby.." His lips had traveled up to my ear and he lightly nibbled on the lobe. That little tug was all that was needed to drive me over the edge and into something I knew was wrong. I leaned into his chest and sighed as his lips began to trail down my neck again.

"Yes." It was a simple word, but it caused a big reaction. Taylor pulled away from me, grabbed my hand, and moved towards the door. I pulled him back hesitantly, "What if someone's out there?"

"I'll check." He peeked out the door quickly, "Just Jason and he won't say anything. Come on."

"You promise?"

"Promise." He brushed his lips across mine and smiled gently. We walked out into the hall and past Jason to his door. "No one knows about this, �kay Jase?" Jason nodded solemnly in his �I'll kill you if you touch me" type-of-way and Taylor led me into his room. As soon as the door was shut and locked, our tongues met and clothes were shed. We miraculously (and just a bit clumsily) found our way to the bed.
