Dylan and Taylor (Soul Mates 101 Series) by Scarlet Wolfe Read Free Book Online Page B

I’ll find an excuse to. “She’s not the bitch I thought she was, but she’s definitely still on my nerves about every other minute. We couldn’t get along in the car for any length of time.”
    “I’m glad one of us is seeing something different in her,” Austin says.
    Soon after, the girls invade the game room. My eyes flash to Taylor.
    “I’ve decided that we need a fun night of drinking. Dylan and Taylor need some relief from their made for TV movie adventure,” Hannah says playfully.
    Taylor’s eyes widen and shoot to her. “Hannah, I told you I don’t think that’s a good idea. You know I shouldn’t drink.”
    “Why shouldn’t you drink, Taylor?” Brett asks, smiling.
    Yeah, why shouldn’t she drink? I gotta hear this. She looks embarrassed.
    “Umm ... um—”
    Morgan links her arms around Taylor’s waist from the side. “What Taylor wants to say is that she’s a freakin’ blast when she drinks.”
    Taylor covers her face with her hands. I love when these women hug on each other. It gets me excited.
    “You’re just the kind of drunk girl we like then, Taylor,” Cody says, winking at her.
    I’d be pissed at him if I didn’t already know he has his eyes set on Jasmine.
    “OK, so we’ll make our legendary burgers for you girls tonight, and then we drink,” Matt says.

 
    Taylor
    My girlfriends and I spend the afternoon bonding with girl talk and online shopping. It’s now supper time, so while the guys are cooking, I go to change out of my sweats. I put on a black, baby doll t-shirt that has the logo of one of my favorite rock bands on the front, skinny jeans and black flats. I braid a section of my hair in the front and let the rest of my hair flow down my back.
    There’s a knock on my door, and it’s Hannah.
    “Hi, I wanted to talk to you alone and make sure you’re doing OK since last night was hard on you. I hope you don’t mind us having a little party. I thought it would take your mind off of what you’ve been through.”
    “It’s fine, but you know I have no inhibitions when I drink.”
    “You’ll get to make some fun memories with the guys, and speaking of them, I’m intrigued and happy to see that you and Dylan are getting along better.”
    “Didn’t we already cover this?”
    “I know, but I thought you might have more to say about it when no one else is around.”
    I do want to talk about him since he’s all I can think about, so I flop down on my bed. “I can’t even begin to tell you the measures he took to protect me. I was shocked and grateful. I’ll admit I like him, but I don’t know if we could ever get along for any length of time.
    “We fought off and on the entire time we were alone together, but I was surprised to learn that we both love the same kind of music, and of course, him playing the guitar is odd, considering. I was in bed crying today since I was so cold, and he came in and lay with me to warm me up. He didn’t even try to mess around. What guy does that?”
    “Dylan’s very loyal and sweet. He doesn’t want to get hurt any more than the rest of us. You’re the one, Taylor. He can’t resist wanting you no matter how hard he tries, so please don’t hurt him.”
    “You’re getting way ahead of me, Hannah Banana.”
    “It’s been three years since Sam broke your heart. It’s time to take a chance and let someone in. Let Dylan in.” She gives me a hug and leaves the room. Do Dylan and I have a chance? I need to find out.
    I finish getting ready and go downstairs. The house smells yummy from the burgers the guys are fixing. I can see them in the kitchen, and they look adorable, laughing and cooking together. I want to be friends with them, and I never thought I’d feel that way when I met them.
    My girlfriends are at the bar making mixed drinks, and I know I’m headed for trouble. Hannah makes me my favorite, Red Bull and Patrone. I have a feeling she’s playing matchmaker tonight, and I swear that girl should have her own
