Delicate || Taylor Swift x Female reader

14.

Ivy and Taylor were lying together on the older blonde's couch, How you may think did Ivy end up back at Taylor's house? Well, it's a long story, Turns out Isabelle found true love and had moved to live with her boyfriend without telling Ivy. What is it with people just leaving without letting a girl know!?

So long story short Ivy was now back at Taylor's house with every intention of staying the night.

"Tay?" Ivy whispered, The house was silent, The only movement was Taylor playing with Ivy's short hair

"Mmm?" Taylor hummed in response, "We should probably go to bed" Ivy said, "Yeah, You're right, And I should probably shower?" Taylor asked as Ivy shifted off the singer's lap and fully onto the couch

"Mhm, and while you go become less stinky I'm gonna read my ripped up book" Ivy said sleepily, She had left that book at Taylor's house thinking there was no point in taking a torn book home, But now it would come as a good distraction

Thankfully the last few chapters of the book had been untouched by Meredith and so Ivy curled up on Taylor's couch under a throw blanket and got lost in the love story of Hazel and Gus...

Half an hour later Taylor walked back into the living room clad in cosy pj's and a pair of fuzzy slippers, The younger blonde was so engrossed in her book that she didn't hear Taylor walk in. The singer took a seat at the kitchen island and began to watch Ivy intently as the girl explored the chapter she was reading

Taylor sat for fifteen minutes just watching Ivy read with her head low, And by some miracle the girl didn't notice Taylor's intense gaze for if she had it would have created quite an awkward atmosphere between them

Taylor soon noticed how what she was doing was actually kinda creepy so she snuck out of the room before re-entering as if she had totally not been in the room for half an hour already

"Took you long enough" Ivy said as she placed the book down on the glass coffee table, "Yeah sorry I was intensely staring at the shower wall" Taylor joked, Well not entirely, She had been staring at something, Something much more interesting than a shower wall

"Cmon let's go to bed" Ivy said as she grabbed the singers hand and led her into the bedroom, There it was again, Right in their faces the heart with their initials carved into Taylor's bedpost

Although Taylor had assured the girl that she loved it Ivy couldn't help but feel bad for ruining Taylor's bed.

Ivy quickly changed into a loose t-shirt that Taylor let her borrow and slid under the sheets next to the singer. As soon as her head hit the pillow Ivy's eyes were closed and she was drifting between reality and dreamland

That's when Taylor found herself doing it again, She stared intently, Watching Ivy breathing with her eyes closed peacefully, Over the course of their friendship she had found herself observing everything Ivy did or didn't do, It was creepy but at the moment Taylor couldn't help herself

Something about the serenity in Ivy's face sent Taylor spiralling down herself and soon she too was sleeping, Her face the picture of happiness and peace, Passed all the cursing and the crying, This was pure happiness

...

December 23rd 

The next day Taylor and Ivy were on their way to the airport where they were taking Taylor's private jet to fly to Nashville

They had both packed light since they would only be there for three days considering they had already missed one, Taylor packed some outfits and a paint set oddly, As well as stuff for the cats of course. Ivy on the other hand had packed some outfits that would be sure to impress her grandmother and stuff for Charlie as well as a few Christmas presents for everybody.
