(Seven Part 2‼️)
They pulled into the drive way of Travis's large modern house. The drive was about 15 minutes give or take and Taylor could feel her eye lids growing heavy. Travis pulled his hand out from the back of Taylor head. "Come on love let's get you inside." He said cutting the ignition of the car. Taylor nodded and undid her seatbelt. Travis grabbed her bag and walked around the car to help her out. He stretched out his arm and Taylor grabbed his open palm and slowly but surely climbed out of the car although when she got out of the car she didn't let go of his hand they walked hand in hand up the the house.
Travis walked Taylor into the spared bedroom a few doors down from his. He handed her a towel and told her where the shower was. "If you need me just come knock on my door" he said placing her bag on the end of the bed. "Thank you Travis" she said grabbing the towel and walking to the bathroom "of corse love." He turned and walked back down the stairs and sat on the couch. He turned the tv on and heard the shower upstairs switch on.
After Taylor hopped out of the shower she wrapped the warm fluffy towel over the chest and dared to look at herself in the mirror she gained the courage to look up at the girl in her reflection. Her eyes gained a glossy coating and her vision started to blur. Her lip trembled and her hands started to shake she unraveled the towel and slipped on some shorts and a tank top she planted her hands on the counter and looked at all the scrapes on her arms she lifted the side of her tank top and revealed the large maroon and purple bruise that was spread across her ribs. A tear dropped from her eye and she sucked in a large breath and releasing a shaky one back out. She repeated this over and over again till her sobs got more audible and the tears became more consistent she threw on a large sweat shirt and sank to the floor and sobbed into her arms as she buried her chin into her chest.
Travis turned the tv down and shot up to a standing position he could hear Taylor crying from the bottom of the stairs. He rushed up to see what was wrong. He paused outside the bathroom door and took a centering breath before knocking gently on the door. "Taylor what's wrong?" Her sobs only grew louder he opened the door and saw her sitting against the wall with her head buried in her lap he rushed over and crouched in front of her "love? What's going on" he asked as he stroked her legs and sat beside her throwing an arm over her shoulder. "Its.." she sucked in a breath "it's really" -and another- "it's really bad trav" she cried and leaned into his touch. "Do you want me to see if there's anything I can do? Would you like to show me?" He asked softly not 100% sure about what she was going on about. "It's really really bad Travis." She calmed her breathing. "If you show me I might be able to help." He said. She lifted her sweatshirt over her head leaving her in her tank top and shorts, she lifted the top up to revel the large bruise that covered all her ribs. "Oh tay.." he said brushing his finger tips along the bruise. "I told you" she sniffed he moved the bangs off her face to revel the slightly lighter smaller bruise on her forehead. "Oh love your safe now." He kissed her forehead and continued to brush his finger tips back and forth over her exposed skin. She basked in his soft cinnamon pine tree scent and he kissed her cheek again. "Come on. Let's get you in bed it late."
He helped her up and guided her down the hall with his hand on the small of her back. She slipped into the bed sheets and Travis turned to walk over to the door. "Trav?" She whispered "yes my love?" He turned to face her while leaning on the door frame "will you please stay with me. I - I don't wanna be alone." She said shyly "of course Taylor. Anything you need" he said walking over to the door ditching his shirt leaving him in the same pyjama pants as earlier. He slipped below the cover and Taylor leaned into his her head in the bend of his arm. He fiddled with the ends of her hair and stroked up and down her waist till she began to fall asleep. "Goodnight love." He whispered to an almost asleep Taylor as he kissed her on the cheek.
