"Congratulations, babe!"

"Ahh! Thank you!" Taylor exclaimed, collapsing into the embrace of her friend as soon as she walked into the hotel room.

"Like I said, there was absolutely no way that piece of shit was going to get away with it," Karlie said, running her hand along Taylor's back comfortingly. She pulled her in all the way, letting the door to the suite shut behind them softly. "How are you feeling?"

"Exhausted," Taylor sighed, walking over to the small kitchenette to grab herself a bottle of water. She uncapped it, took a small sip to quench her dry throat, and added, "like I need to wash the debris left by this giant fricken boulder that's been lifted off my shoulders. It still feels like it weighs a ton."

"I get that," Karlie told her softly, leaning against the wall, her arms wrapped over her chest with one foot tucked behind her other knee. Taylor noted the model was wearing yet another t-shirt from her bag, which she never minded, particularly, except she had taken this shirt from Kaia's side of the closet while she was packing last week for added comfort.

It was just a simple dark green shirt with a faded picture of Led Zeppelin on the front and even a hole just below neckline. Taylor was pretty sure the shirt was thrifted a really long time ago. But she did not like seeing her friend wear it.

"Oh, sorry! I kinda ran out of clean shirts, so I had to borrow something from your suitcase so I could go out and buy something for when we go out tonight!" Karlie explained, grinning excitedly.

Taylor raised her eyebrows, sitting down on one of the dining chairs to take her heels off. "We're going out tonight?"

"Sure! I figured, best case scenario, we go celebrate with a few drinks. Worst case scenario, however unlikely, we go out drinking anyway!"

Taylor chuckled softly, shaking her head as she was unable to match her friend's enthusiasm. "Karls, I am literally just so drained right now, I don't think I can even get up. I need to call Kaia, and my parents, and shower, and then sleep for an eternity. Or until our flight back home. And then, I'll continue sleeping on the jet."

"Ugh, fine! We'll just drink in here, then!" The model let out a heavy sigh and pulled out a chair opposite Taylor who was still looking at her with an unsure expression. "Come on! We need to celebrate your win. We'll order a bottle of Chardonnay to the room with lots of ice cream and just have a wild night in."

Taylor let out a dry laugh and dropped her head on the table. "Okay, fine! Ice cream does sound great right now. And wine. Lots of wine," she admitted, opening her phone when it buzzed. It was Tree, informing her there was going to be a meeting with her legal team the following Monday that she could attend online if she wished to go back to London, which she really did. She told her as much before opening her contacts list and clicking on Kaia's contact, not bothering to do the math and check the time in London.

"Perfect," Karlie grinned widely, pulling herself back up to her feet. She walked up behind Taylor, wrapping her arms around the singer's shoulders just as the actress's face appeared on the screen.
