The Missing Piece: My Other Half (A Twin Story)

Opening up Gifts

Taylor's Pov:
I listened to Marley Speech along with Everyone else that had came to our Birthday Party. Then I realized it was my turn to give a Speech "For many years we were left wondering what had happened to Marley. What kind of Home did she grow up in, was she even loved and showered with attention? We never gave up hope that one day we would find her alive and bring her Home.  I am so glad that I offered them a Plane ride because I couldn't let my biggest Fan down by not offering a ride to My Concert which she was going to. From the moment we first met, it's like we instantly just clicked as Sisters. Seeing Marley made me realize just how much we had missed out on as Sisters. Birthdays, Christmases, Thanksgiving, Prom, giving Advice to each other about Boys. Don't get me wrong, we are going to make a Lifetime of Memories now that she's back. I never want to be Separated from her we will probably give Birth to Babies in the same room, our Babies will grow up together and they will be Besties. And if we got Married the Four of us would all live under the same Roof because I'm not letting History repeat itself and both me and Travis  have a Big enough Mansion for our Families".

Everyone listened to Taylor's Speech and was amazed at how close the two Sisters have gotten ever since they had met. Taylor continued her Speech "When Marley first met me she was this Shy Wallflower who had so many Walls around her. But I think that was because she grew up in an Abusive Home. She told me that her so called Adopted Dad Drank a lot and he Abused her. She told me what all he did to her but I'm not going to say what he did at our Birthday Party. That is why she suffers from Anxiety today. She's slowly coming out of her Shell ever since she joined the Band as a Backup Singer and has grown comfortable getting to know everyone on the Team. Marley has become a Prankster to while on Tour. It took me awhile to figure out she had Pranked me. What it was is you know when the Trap door is supposed to open for my Stage Dive? Well one Night it didn't do right and I winded up cursing on Stage wondering what was going on. I had it figured out as me and the Dancers ran towards the opening on the Stage I saw that Marley and Kamilla kept laughing about something and whispering when I got Backstage a Dancer had spilled the Beans about what Marley had done and didn't know I was listening in". I smirked saying this and looked directly at Marley who blushed red.

"Not to worry, I got her back. While we were at the Pool this Afternoon I caught her doing some People watching and she had her Back turned I sneaked up behind her and grabbed her around the waist picking her up she started squirming and kept doing it telling me to put her down, I put her down alright and waited til I was close enough to throw her in the Pool. She got soaked and when she resurfaced she yelled "Taylor! How could you?!" I had laughed and told her "How could you do what you did with the Stage Dive Trapdoor?Yeah I knew about it when a Dancer told on you! She then splashed me with a big wave of Water".I finished my Speech.

Everyone around us was laughing trying to imagine the entire scene as Taylor described it and were laughing so hard around the table at the Sister's Silly Antics. Jess then spoke up talking about how her and Marley met. "We met for the first time at the Reputation Tour back in 2018 it was our first Taylor Swift Concert we both are big Taylor Swift Fans but Marley here is clearly her biggest SuperFan. I tell you she has lots of Taylor Swift Stuff so much stuff that I've ever seen. Ever since that first Concert, we have kept in touch and even signed up for the same College together. When Marley found out the truth what her  so called Adoptive Father his from her, she moved in with me because at the time I was the only one who she could trust. I'm just so very glad her and Taylor have met because Taylor is the main reason why she survived what she did. "

"Marley has been through a lot during her Teenage Years and as well as Kid years but I am glad and proud of her for finding the Courage to tell her Family who she is and I made sure that she had Proof to show you that she is indeed a Swift. Marley was nervous in telling you three at first and wondered if her Biological Family would like her. I had reassured her that you Guys do and that no matter what that you would hear her out. I told her telling them now would be better because she waited she wouldn't know when she could gather the Courage to tell you again. I'm so glad that she chose to tell you on the Plane and it means so much to her that as her Family you believed her. Marley is happier now that she's with you".

Everyone clapped hearing the Speeches and some even got Teary eyed especially Marley and Taylor's family. You could tell by the looks on everyone's faces that they were happy that the two Sisters had found each other. "These are some wonderful Speeches now everyone who has brought Marley and Taylor a Gift can go put them on the other Table and the Girls will open them up very soon ". Said Tree she had helped the Swifts to set up the Birthday Party

Everyone listened to Tree and done as told and got up putting the Gifts on the other Table. There was a big Happy Birthday Banner with Balloons over the Table. After Dinner, both Taylor and Marley went towards the Table to start opening up Gifts. They were going to have Birthday Cake after the Gifts are opened. The Table was piled high with Gifts from Family and Friends. The first Gift was to Marley and she saw that the Gift is from Taylor it had fancy Wrapping Paper that is shiny Lavender Purple and a fancy Ribbon. It was also Square Shaped like it's a Picture of something.

Marley began to open it curious what is on the inside. She found a note written by Taylor and she read it first keeping the special note that Tay had written to her.

Glad that your back in my life again Marley. I know we can't change what happened in the past, but if you want we can make a ton of Lifetime Memories of just us and our Family. Thank you for coming into our lives the way you did telling the Truth always takes real strength and I admire you for that. Your more like me than you'll ever know. I do want a very close Sister Bond with you and I never want us to be separated again. Love you Sis!-Taylor

Marley finished reading the note and finished opening up the Gift inside was a Photo Collage in a Frame and the Photos were all of her and Taylor taken at various times that she had been with her Sister. Some were taken Backstage and others were taken at Home of them just hanging out or even having Baking Competitions. And some photos were taken of them onstage singing together at Various Shows.  And some Pictures of the two of them surprised Marley she found some Baby Pictures of her and Taylor when they were newborns in they're Pink Blankets Marley hadn't ever seen those before she thinks that Taylor and her Mom had kept them. This made Marley cry happy tears and Taylor gave her Sister a hug "We never once forgot about you we kept Baby Pictures and never stopped looking for you".  Marley cried more happy tears and hugged Taylor back so grateful that her Family never once stopped looking and didn't forget about her.
