***
You watch as your girlfriend claimed her Grammy award for her latest album released, becoming the loudest cheer out of everyone there.
Shortly after the award show was over, you and Taylor were invited to attend a party as a celebration for everyone's achievements.
It turned out to be the most dramatic parties you've ever attended with Taylor. You walked in holding hands with her while you both wore your biggest smiles. The party turned out to have an overwhelming amount of people, other celebrities mainly and their plus one. The thing is, you don't mind going to these things with Taylor, it was just the claustrophobia you carried for as long as you can remember. Of course, Taylor was well aware of this and did everything in her power to make you feel protected whenever you go to this thing. Only tonight would be a little different, the party would soon be something you'd want to put in the back of your mind and forget it ever happened.
As usual, you cling to Taylor's arm while fighting through the crowds in search of Selena Gomez. In the middle of the celebration, you realize that you lost sight of Taylor and started to panic, thinking she abandoned you. Which she did, a little bit and didn't mean to do it intentionally. You pushed your way through the crowds, as you weren't able to find her, you decided to head back to where you both entered to wait for her there, knowing she would come and find you. Music was on full volume as Evanescence's "The Game Is Over" came on and the smell of alcohol beverages filled the room as well, making you feel a little nauseous.
You don't drink or anything like that, and it's not because of health reasons, it was something you promised yourself you'd never do. As you stood waiting for her, you suddenly had some company with a stranger, and immediately felt uncomfortable and wanting nothing more then to get out of there. The next thing you know, he was becoming obnoxious and advanced towards you a bit.
"Can I get you a drink?" He offered, clearly in a drunken speech.
"No. No thank you, I don't drink."
"Oh come on, baby. You don't know what fun you're missing out on."
"No. Please leave me alone."
"You're sure more beautiful up close, ya know?"
"I'm sorry, but I like girls."
"Oh, you're one of them, are you?"
As if on cue, Taylor shows up on time with Selena and comes to your rescue, pushing you behind her. Selena takes part in protecting you by holding you close to her side with an arm wrapped around you.
"That's my girlfriend you're talking to. If you know what's good for you, I'd suggest you leave. "
That didn't phase him one bit, and begins to challenge Taylor to her limit.
"Or what? Who are you to tell me what to do? I don't take orders from anyone."
"Says me. I mean it, if you don't leave, I'll call security-"
"Oh look, I'm shaking in my boots I'm so scared!"
That was the last straw for Taylor, she proves to him of keeping her word as she calls security over. After he puts up a fight with the guards, he gets forced onto the ground, back facing towards them as they place him in handcuffs before escorting him out, actually taking him to the police station.
After that event, Taylor turns to you and notices how shaken up you are.
"Are you alright, sweetheart?"
You shook your head before giving a verbal response.
"I think I want to go home, now."
"Of course. Come on, let's go."
Selena ends up driving so that Taylor can ride in the backseat with you.
On the way home, Taylor kept apologizing for letting you slip away from her sight. She couldn't stop saying aloud of how she should've kept better track of you. Taylor couldn't stop blaming herself for losing you in the crowds of all places .
You remind her that it was okay and that the incident could be left in the past, that the two of you could move on, no matter how this affected the two of you.
