Happiness

01

It's no secret by now that my relationship with Joe has come to an end. We wanted very different things looking to the future and as much as I loved him and fought for us to try make it work he couldn't compromise on anything. He couldn't risk on losing anything on his part, and that's what makes me more frustrated about the kind of relationship that we had, all of the sacrifices and 'giving ups' we're all on me.                                    Looking at it now, 7 months later I feel like a joke, I was so blindsided that I couldn't really see  the toxicity of our relationship. All of the warnings coming from friends and family that I so bluntly denied, but I couldn't think of only me and I really tried to make it work for the sake of our family.

Let's skip to the present, shall we?
I'm getting ready to get on stage at Arrowhead stadium, I'll be up in 5 and I'm feeling that something magical will happen tonight. Performing is one of the most joyous things to me, the energy of the fans, being able to hear them screaming back to my songs and being so appreciative of what I make, I always feel beyond blessed to be able to keep doing what I love the most.
So I leave backstage and position myself, as I hear the first cords I take my cue and start singing. The crowd is amazing and I'm really enjoying the show, I love my fans and performing to them so so much. After long 3 hours I make my final bow to the audience and leave through the side of the stage, I wave to some people that were waiting for me at the nosebleeds seats area and with that I wrap it up the second night at Kansas City. I go back backstage and as I'm finishing changing into some comfy clothes I hear a knock at my door and Trees voice " Hey Taylor, it's me, Tree. Im coming in ok?"
"Oh, Hi Tree, what's up? Is there something else for tomorrow? Im just finishing here and I'll head back to the hotel" I say.
"Well yeah, so apparently security came to me saying that a guy was trying to talk to you. They said he's a well known football player.. So what do I say, will you meet him or..?
"Tree, you know how I feel about this, I'm not ready... not yet. And also there's..."
"I know Tay, don't worry. I'll let them know that you don't have guests over after the show, that you're in a voice rest for that matter."
"Thanks Tree, you're the best." I say as I blow her a kiss and prepare to leave as well. When I'm on my way to the hotel I check on my phone for any updates or important messages that I may have received in the meantime. After that I also text Tree, I know I didn't care to meet with the guy but I couldn't avoid to be curious about it so I just asked her who it was. Well... it doesn't hurt to boost my ego a bit, does it?

A/N:
Hi! So this is my first work here... I don't know if I'm going to be any good at it, but this is something that I've been wanting to do for quite some time now, so I thought I might just try and publish it.
This story is inspired by so many things, either songs that I like - mostly Taylor's - or ideas that come up randomly to my mind...
I mostly wrote this story because that's something I thought I would like to read if someone had published it. So yeah.. it might not turn out good or it might, idk.

I still don't know how frequently I'll be able to publish this, but in an ideal world it would be weekly.
