Taylor looked at Avery's sleeping form as he awoke the next morning and he sighed as he reached out to let a hand brush away some of the hair that was in her face. He half wondered if she would remember last night at all as she was rather wasted by the time he had shown up.
He had indeed came to surprise her and try to make up for all the stuff that had happened yesterday morning but maybe in the end, he had been the one getting surprised when he found her dancing with his brother and he was half sure when he had reached them he had heard her proposition Zac for sex, a fact which hurt but he wasn't sure he could fully blame her. She had been drunk after all and not all of her had been there.
Though she had been there enough to let Taylor take her to the bathroom where he had fucked her up against the wall in one of the bathroom stalls and she had even been there enough to let Taylor fuck her again when they got home and he was half certain even if she didn't remember all of last night she'd probably wake up sore at least because he hadn't been all that gentle each time he fucked her.
He hadn't been sure what came over him but he guessed it was knowing that she had wanted Zac, it had brought out a rougher side to him when he had been with her and he wanted her to know just who she was with and that he was better and that she was his.
Taylor knew it was wrong to even feel jealous over that because again she had been drunk and not all there but he was jealous and it reminded him of what had happened years ago with Natalie but there he had been the one in the wrong because he knew Natalie had been with Zac but he always had that intense need to show up Zac and try to claim what was his baby brother's.
But it did seem Zac was making up for lost time because he had found out during his visit to Natalie's that they were hooking up again and Taylor wanted to be angry but he had no right to be because Natalie wasn't his wife anymore and she and Zac could do whatever they wanted, Taylor just wanted Zac to leave Avery alone though now, especially whenever she was drunk.
Leaning down he left a tiny kiss on Avery's forehead before climbing out of bed where he found his boxers and slipped them back on before making the trek downstairs where he knew his brother was as he had heard Zac get up twenty minutes ago.
Making it downstairs he spotted Zac sitting at the kitchen island, eating a bowl of cereal and so Taylor headed in there giving his brother a once over, "Sleep well?" he asked keeping his voice free of any emotion.
"Could've been better if you and your wife had been more silent," Zac grumbled and Taylor chuckled to himself as he headed to the fridge where he got out the milk.
"I guess we just forgot you were here," Taylor shrugged telling a lie on his part. He had known Zac was here and just like how he had wanted Avery to know that she was his, he had wanted Zac to know the same thing and he had made an effort to be a bit louder than usual.
Zac went quite at that and so Taylor proceeded to finish making his breakfast in silence but of course he should have known that Zac wouldn't stay silent.
"She didn't sound like she wanted it though," Zac mused which made Taylor turn his head quickly as he eyed his brother. "I mean it sounded like she was telling you no a few times."
Taylor kept eying Zac as he listened to his brother's words and as he walked to the island with his own bowl of cereal he tried to process exactly what Zac was saying, "You think I raped my wife?" he asked not even liking that insinuation. Avery had consented, she had been willing. Wouldn't he have known if she didn't want it?
Zac kept his gaze away from Taylor now that he had joined him at the island, "I'm saying you both were wasted and she said no and maybe you misunderstood."
"I didn't misunderstand," Taylor spoke as he shook his head before taking a bite of his cereal as he still tried to process what Zac was saying. "She wanted it."
"Whatever you say," Zac muttered as he stood up with his now empty bowl and walked to the sink.
Glaring Taylor watched Zac and he shook his head, "Just say you don't believe me," he muttered out feeling angry that Zac could even think he'd do such a thing. Yes he could be an ass at times but he wasn't a rapist.
Zac put his dirty dishes in the sink before turning to face Taylor, "I never said I don't believe you. It's like I said you were both wasted and you could have misunderstood her," he sighed before turning to leave the kitchen.
"I don't know why I let you stay here," Taylor spoke watching Zac stop in his steps. "I mean we haven't gotten along since Natalie and hell actually we haven't really got on since before Natalie but I guess we both know why that is huh?"
"Because you try to out due me because I took away you being the baby?" Zac questioned though he stayed facing away from Taylor.
Taylor shook his head at that, "Because you're the bastard our dad brought home from the hospital and you're the reason my mother abandoned me and Isaac."
It was after he said that, that Taylor watched Zac visibly flinch but Zac didn't say anything else, he just left the kitchen and Taylor bit his lip feeling awful for throwing it into Zac's face but it was the truth and it was probably one reason why Taylor spent all of his life trying to out do Zac.
Because deep down he blamed Zac for his parents marriage going on the rocks and his mother leaving him. Not that he didn't warm to his step-mother but she wasn't his mom and she never would be. His mom had left because his father had brought home the bastard child he had created with another woman and his mom hadn't been able to accept it and so she had just walked out without even caring that she had been leaving behind two children.
Though maybe in the end Taylor shouldn't have faulted Zac either because Zac's own mother had abandoned him the day he was born but the only mother Zac had known was Vickie and Zac had always seemed to have adjusted better without his real mom then Taylor had, but then again Taylor had always been a momma's boy and he had been so young and confused.
He had only ever gotten the truth of the situation when he was fourteen and his mom had showed back up into his life again though of course she hadn't stayed because Zac was still there and Taylor guessed some wounds still ran deep.
Shaking his head he knew he'd have to apologize eventually for being shitty because even if he did still hold stuff against Zac, Taylor also loved him because Zac was his brother and baby sibling and he didn't mind having him here though he also hoped Zac apologized for the rape accusations because he really didn't rape his wife.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Walking upstairs with Taylor, Avery who was drunk clung to him as Zac walked behind them. It was going on midnight and maybe she shouldn't have drank anymore after the bathroom fuck with Taylor but she had and even Taylor had drank too once they came out.
He had probably easily caught up or halfway caught up with her when it came to drinking and she was sure by the time they left he had at least drank seven beers or maybe it was six. It was more than he usually drank and she wasn't sure what had spurred him on but he was now as gone as she was which was why they had agreed to get a cab back home with Zac trailing it the whole way.
Though getting a cab was something Taylor had been reluctant on because that had meant leaving his car behind but Brandon, thank god for him, he had said he would bring it by later because he hadn't drank at all so that he could be Noelle's designated driver and Avery was sure Brandon would keep his word because he was good like that.
Reaching the bedroom Avery let go of Taylor briefly to open the door and once she stepped foot inside she turned the lights on, hearing a brief exchange of words between Zac and Taylor but she wasn't paying attention to them, instead she had been too busy taking her shoes off as she walked towards the bed.
Sitting on the bed after her shoes were off she looked up at Taylor as he shut the door and she raised an eyebrow seeing him holding her thong.
"How did you get that?" Avery asked as she watched Taylor lay the thong down on the dresser by the door before he began to strip out of his clothes.
Taylor eyed her curiously for a bit before answering, "Zac had it," he explained his tone changing to one she hadn't quite heard from him before and when he walked to the bed and got in beside her, she stayed facing away from him. "I don't want to even ask how my brother ended up with your underwear."
"I don't know how he did," Avery admitted as she turned to face Taylor finally and when she did she was surprised with how close he was to her. "I..I knew they were gone when we went to the bathroom but I don't..." she started only to be stopped by Taylor kissing her.
The kiss had taken her by surprise and so it took her awhile to respond but eventually she did and once she did the kisses turned from soft and gentle to rough and hard but she didn't object to them because she did like Taylor when he was a little rough.
Though the roughness in the kisses got worse when Taylor pushed her back on the bed and laid over her. It was a roughness she didn't like and maybe if she had been sober she would have stopped this sooner.
"Taylor, no," Avery hissed out maybe a little too loudly when she felt Taylor's hand going up and under her dress. "I'm not in the mood right now," she spoke as she pushed him up just a bit which made him look down at her.
"I bet if it was him you'd be in the mood," Taylor replied his tone harsh but instead of moving off her all the way, he moved up enough to take off her dress and then his lips were on her neck as his hand found it's way between her legs and Avery closed her eyes as she felt him starting to rub her.
It was an action that hurt slightly because he hadn't been too gentle when they fucked in the bathroom. "I...no," she stated loudly not sure if she was saying no to him again or saying no about his accusation because at this point in time it worked for both. She wouldn't be in the mood for Zac and she didn't want Taylor touching her either.
"Just stop," Avery spoke though she didn't try to push Taylor away this time, instead she let him stay where he was, his lips attached to her neck though they eventually moved farther down her body until he removed his hand from between her legs and replaced it with his mouth.
Feeling her head drop back, Avery closed her eyes tightly knowing Taylor was doing this to get her in the mood and try to win her over to his side and maybe he was slowly getting her there..maybe but she wasn't there yet and she was still sore and even if he got her there did she really want it? Did she want it like this when he was clearly agitated and trying to prove some point though Avery had no clue what he was trying to prove because she was so far gone.
"No," Avery muttered one last time before Taylor slipped a finger inside of her as well and again her head dropped even farther back into the bed and it was then she decided it was useless to tell him no. She'd just give in and let him have his way tonight and well she was starting to get turned on now too thanks to his work between her legs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Standing in the now cold shower Avery closed her eyes tight as she did her best to remember everything that had happened last night. She remembered the bathroom sex with Taylor after he had interrupted her hitting on Zac and then she remembered him drinking a lot but the details became fuzzy once they got home.
She knew they had, had sex again though because she had woken up naked in an empty bed and she did remember faintly Taylor on top of her but yet she couldn't remember all of the details though she was sure at one point she had told him no but then in other flashes she had been into it, she had wanted it...hadn't she?
Avery wasn't quite sure on that but surely if she hadn't wanted it she wouldn't have given into him, she wouldn't have let them go for a round two but fuck she had been so wasted that she probably would have let anyone have sex with her and wasn't that what had gotten Taylor mad anyway? He had heard her coming onto Zac, he had let her know as much when they fucked in the bathroom and he had told her to call him Zac but then after he had reminded her that he wasn't Zac and that he was better than his brother, would always be.
Biting her lip Avery stepped out of the shower and she walked to the towels, grabbing one and wrapping it around herself before sitting down on the closed toilet lid where she pulled the towel up enough to inspect the bruises on her legs near her thighs. Even with her consent he didn't have to be hard and rough and he had been if her soreness and bruises were any indication to go by.
"But it wasn't rape," she muttered to herself still unsure if it was rape or not. If she said no but then consented was it really rape? Did it stop being rape when she stopped saying no and just let it happen? Avery wasn't sure but she had to tell herself it wasn't rape because she thought she knew Taylor that well even if her mind had been a bit gone. He wouldn't willingly hurt her and she still felt safe with him.
Shaking her head Avery was about to stand up from the toilet when she heard the door open and as she looked up she bit her lip as she saw Taylor coming into the bathroom.
"Are you...." Taylor started but his words seemed to get caught as his eyes scanned Avery and the moment they landed on her bruises his expression became one of horror as he walked a bit closer to her and bent down, letting his hands run over the bruises.
"Did I do this?" Taylor asked her though it sounded more like a statement and all Avery knew to do was nod her head at his question. "Fuck," he muttered before frowning as he looked up at her. "I...I'm sorry," he told her as he reached up and pulled her down into a kiss, a kiss that was more gentle than any from last night.
Kissing him back Avery sighed against his lips before pulling away, "I know you are," she said as she let her hands rest on his cheeks. "I forgive you," she told him before leaning down to kiss him again and she was being honest, she did forgive him for everything that had happened.
He had indeed came to surprise her and try to make up for all the stuff that had happened yesterday morning but maybe in the end, he had been the one getting surprised when he found her dancing with his brother and he was half sure when he had reached them he had heard her proposition Zac for sex, a fact which hurt but he wasn't sure he could fully blame her.
