Taylor glanced at her phone; barely 3 minutes had passed since she had last looked at it. She sighed. Its amazing how long a plane journey can feel when you've got something waiting at the other end.

It was mid July, and Taylor was flying back to LA from spending 3 weeks away on the 1989 world tour. She has only played 7 shows, but it seemed stupid flying home after every one, just to come back and play somewhere else 2 days later, so instead she'd been staying in hotel rooms, with friends, or at her other houses. Taylor normally loved touring; playing songs she loved to crowds who loved her, meeting fans, surprising them with covers and duets, but this time round it was different. She wasn't single.

Previously, she had gone on tour, and it had caused problems in her relationship, consequently leading to the break up. Being away from each other had created tension, and in the end, neither was putting in the effort to keep up this long distance relationship with its changing timezones and they'd grown apart.

But now it was different. Taylor had been single for 2 years, having sworn off dating, and she'd got used to touring by herself, or with friends, as Ed joined her for the majority of the red tour. She got used to being away from home, and didn't have anyone to miss, so the tour was even more enjoyable, as she didn't have to bother about a relationship.  But then she met Calvin at the Brit Awards  earlier in the year, and they'd found they had loads in common. They exchanged numbers, and soon found themselves texting like teenagers and meeting up in LA. They started dating, and it soon became clear to the public, with the PDA shown at the BBMAs! And when Taylor had to leave for tour, it was a long sad goodbye, but it was clear from the very beginning that they were going to put the effort in to staying together whilst miles apart. On the first leg, Calvin had occasionally flown out to see her, or she'd flown back home between shows, but Taylor made the decision that for this leg, she was going to spend it with friends, and although she would Facetime and call Calvin daily, she wanted to show the public that she didn't need Calvin in her life, she merely wanted him in it, and she also wanted to prove to herself she could cope without him for 3 weeks as they'd been seeing each other almost every day back in LA.

She'd done it, but she has missed him like terrible. And now she was on the plane home and it couldn't go fast enough!! She'd already arranged to meet Calvin hours after landing. They decided it was too public to have him at the airport this time, considering how much they had missed each other, and she didn't want to have to hold back when she saw him due to their being paps. He was going to stay at his LA home and Taylor was going to drop her bags at her house before going to his for dinner, which he was cooking.

Taylor sighed again, she still had 45 minutes left on the plane. She put on another episode of friends and tried to distract her brain. Soon after, the plane began to descend and Taylor couldn't stop the massive grin from creeping onto her face! She was in the same city as Calvin again! Her parents who had flown back with her to stay with some other family in LA laughed at her obvious joy, before saying a short goodbye on the plane as it landed, knowing their daughter wanted to rush off. They couldn't be more happy about how smitten she was!!! They loved Calvin and he made her so happy it was hard not to! Andrea was their for a few shows mid tour, during which point Taylor had crept into her hotel room almost in tears whispering how she missed him so terribly. This had made Andrea smile as she saw in her face how much she was in love with Calvin. Even though they'd never actually said it out loud to each other, mainly because Taylor didn't want to rush things, but also because she hadn't actually realised!, but it was very clear to Andrea, and had been for a while.

As the plane landed,  Taylor grabbed her handbag and phone whilst her security grabbed her bags, and together they rushed to the waiting car, after waving to a few fans, before heading towards Taylors apartment. Taylor was bouncing with excitement in the back of the car at the thought of being so close to seeing the one person she'd missed so much!


They pulled up at her house, and Taylor grabbed her bags and climbed out of the car.

"I'll be 10 minutes" she said to her driver, who just smiled oddly at her. Taylor just brushed it off as that he saw her obvious excitement.

She ran up the front door, unlocking it, and closing it behind her. She slipped her shoes off and made her way inside, but as she was just about to go upstairs, she heard a noise in the kitchen and the smell of cookies.

She crept towards the partially open door, wondering who was in her house. She paused for a moment, wondering whether she should get security, but they were literally just outside, so they'd hear her scream if anything happened.  She peered round the door, before gasping.

Calvin was leant against the side, grinning, holding a bunch of daisy's next to a plate of fresh cooked cookies.

"Hello Taylor" he whispered, "I've missed you quite terribly"

This woke Taylor up from her trance, reality finally hitting her that he was in front of her, and the massive grin reappeared on her face as she ran towards him. He laid the flowers on the side before engulfing her in a massive hug, repeatedly kissing the top of her head. They stood their for a few minutes, in each others arms, before Taylor lifted her head, and Calvin loosened the hug a little.

"How?" Taylor managed to get out, her eyes tearing up.

"I missed you so much, and so I met up with Karlie yesterday who was in LA for a shoot, to ask her for the key for a surprise" he replied, still grinning.

Taylor pulled him back into the hug, as he whispered "I've ordered In and Out burgers and Milkshakes for Dinner, as I thought you'd appreciate that more than waiting for me to cook something, but i'll cook something tomorrow."

And with that she burst into tears. Never had a guy met up with her friend to surprise her by being at her house, made cookies, bought her flowers, been able to read her mind about what she would want to eat, or even offered to cook dinner for her. No one had ever held her like this, and she'd never missed anyone as much as she'd missed Calvin these past weeks.

"What's wrong Baby"  Calvin whispered pulling back after he felt her sobs soaking his t-shirt.

"Nothing, I'm happy, I've just missed you so much, and you've done all of this, and its perfect." Taylor whispered pulling him again. She reached up and played a kiss on his lips, and they passionately made out for a few minutes, before Taylor pulled back, breathless, eyes wet but sparkling, grinning. "I love you Calvin" She whispered staring into his eyes. He began grinning back after realising what she'd said "I love you so much Calvin, and I think I have for a while, but these 3 weeks have really made me realise how much as I've missed you so much"

"I love you too, Taylor, and I want to spend the rest of my life showing you how much, if you'll have me. I'm not proposing, but I'd like to think I will in the future"

"I'd like that very much" Taylor replied grinning. "Also, keep the key"

"Are you sure?" Calvin replied, grinning as well

"Yes, I'll get Karlie another one cut. I think its about time you had one, and it will make me happy when I'm away knowing there is someone waiting for me to come back at home." Calvin smiled even more. "When do I get to eat these cookies?!" Taylor suddenly exclaimed, suddenly remembering how hungry she was!

"After the burgers, which should be arriving soon" Calvin replied checking the time.

"Meany, I want one now!!" Taylor said pouting.

"You love me really" Calvin replied, kissing her lips.

"That I do, I've missed you so terribly!" Taylor whispered, before kissing him passionately again, the cookies soon long forgotten!
