Chapter 2
Claire's POV
All these years later and I'm still the number one fan of my sister. What she's doing in that stage tonight is sending me shivers all over my body.
It's funny how a few fans are commenting about how Joe must be feeling with the dance moves and all the tour stuff and commenting on the fact he's probably away filming. If they only knew…
Taylor is miserable in a few moments, but of course she's hiding it from everyone. The tour distracts her, but when we are home she gets really sad sometimes. I don't even tell mom, but she's hiding to cry and drink wine sometimes in the middle of the night and then a few hours later I hear the sound of the piano.
Of course we knew they were fighting lately, but I never thought in a million of years they could end forever.
I have a feeling that someone is going to spread this to the press, someone always does when is something about Taylor, but I hope it takes some time. Tay needs time to process this, it's been just 3 weeks since Joey said goodbye to us. I don't know much but I heard mom and Taylor talking about giving up to be who you are to be with someone and how it is not worthy.
Anyway, adult problems. I just hope I never fall in love with someone so seriously like Tay and Joey, because when it ends you probably feel lost. If I already miss Joe on our family I can't imagine Taylor.
– It's the surprise set time, Claire.– Mom advises me and I nod.
I can't wait to see the reaction of the crowd when T jumps under the stage. The fact she doesn't show anything to her fans only makes them more curious, and they have been screaming and crying since the first note of Miss Americana.
It's really fun for me to see this level of love for Taylor. It's like they were all part of our family. It's sweet how they spend the whole day talking about her, trying to imagine how happy she is with the tour, and how she's probably getting lost backstage. She needs this heart welcoming virtual hug.
– Mirrorball … interesting choice.– I whisper with mom and she nods.
– It's a good way to remind her fans that she loves to shine, even when she is broken inside.
That's when I realized what mom was saying. She's sad inside because of Joe but she's smiling at the crowd so they don't notice it. And there's the fact that she loves to perform, she is so excited with this tour! I'm sure she's having the time of her life tonight.
Taylor's POV
I play Tim McGraw and can't hold back a huge smile seeing my fans screaming non stop. When they are calmer, I get up from Piano, grab the guitar and start to explain about the acoustic set and how I'm not repeating the songs unless I mess it up pretty badly.
– I… want you to know, I'm a mirrorball…
Fans go crazy and start to sing along with me and I find it really funny how people adopt the song and relate to it, because it's an extremely deep personal song. I decided to sing this one because that's how I am today: broken into million pieces but shining to make them happy. And they are happy, which makes me happy too. They're my cure. They are everything I need right now to mend my break bones after losing Joe.The song finishes and I start to blow kisses everywhere. Then, the floor becomes a river and I see the hole where I have to jump in. I'm so excited for their reaction to the jump under stage! I ask my mom to try to film the crowd reaction. The green light under the stage tells me they are ready for me, so I just jump.
I can only laugh my ass out hearing the screams while the cart carries me to the center of the stage, under which I have a second dressing room. My people help me into the midnight bodysuit and throw the giant T-shirt of anti hero over my head and arms.
