Week after week passed by. Travis and Taylor texted and talked more and more every day. One day, she actually lay in bed missing him. She couldn't call him because he was at a friend's place and she felt like she missed his voice, his laugh, and his sweet words. He was really good at making her laugh and feel good about herself. They even planned another in-person date in a week. She wanted to see him again but without any eyes on them if possible. So she decided to spend the two off days in New York. Her team was confused because she only told those who had to know why she was flying back and forth like that.The week felt long though. After the last concert before the date, she hurried backstage and jumped into the car as soon as possible. Of course, she was tired but it was worth it if she would meet Travis tomorrow. It would be interesting because normally, she had a day of vocal rest and not moving scheduled whenever possible. Now she would have to take care of a guest and definitely not be silent. The car ride to the airport already felt incredibly long and when she finally lay down in her jet, she fell asleep almost instantly.
It had been a while since she was pretty much alone in her jet. Or at least as alone as she could be. There was security with her and the staff that the jet needed but no Tree or anyone else from her business team. That's why Taylor woke up during the landing. It seemed like the weather made it a bit harder than normal but they made it to the ground safely. Taylor felt awful when she sat up. Her whole body hurt and she just wanted to sleep. "No paps so far", her security informed her after having a look outside and communicating with his colleague. She just nodded at that and forced herself to get up.
The next morning, a few hours later, was pretty much the same. She did not want to get up. So much so that she just fell asleep again despite her light-up room. A ring on the door woke her up another few hours later. "Shit", she mumbled after a look at the clock. It had to be Travis. Standing up, her feet reminded her how much these concert high heels weren't meant to be worn that long. But Taylor still hurried to throw on some clothes and get to the door. Walking there, she tried to get her hair under control but she still looked like she just fell out of her bed when she opened the door. "I'm so sorry", she said with a raspy voice. "Hi, Taylor", Travis just said holding back a slight laugh. "Hi", she answered a bit embarrassed.
"Would you let me in?", he asked. "Oh, sure, sorry", she mumbled opening the door further. He stepped in, put his bag down, and turned around to face her again. "Did you just wake up?", he asked. "I wouldn't look like this if I had gotten up early enough", she explained still with a rough voice. "You look really cute", he just smiled pulling her into a hug. Taylor let herself fall against his chest and took a deep breath. "I don't have anything prepared", she admitted silently. "That's totally fine, Tay. You should take the rest you need", he just answered before they went to the kitchen. Taylor tried to not look like every single step hurt somewhere in her body but she couldn't help it and let out a relieved sigh after sitting down again.
"Should I make us some coffee?", Travis asked. Taylor was about to stand up again, but he gestured for her to stay where she was. "I can use a coffee machine", he said preparing her coffee first. He actually remembered how she liked it from their last date. "Thank you", she almost whispered taking the cup he gave her. Taylor's voice didn't really let her talk right now. Travis sat down next to her when he had a cup for himself. "I'm afraid I'm not really fun to be around today", Taylor whispered. "I didn't expect a party", he said. "Honestly, I don't expect anything besides spending some time. Last time, you had a cake and you cooked and I was just there. Today, I can take care of you a little bit if you let me", Travis added looking at her. Taylor just closed her eyes tiredly and leaned on his shoulder with a sigh. She felt bad for it but she knew she didn't really have a choice.
Travis ended up putting together a breakfast for her and a lunch snack for himself. They sat down on her couch afterward. He even made a tee for her voice and it did help a bit. She could talk as long as she didn't get too loud but they decided to just watch something together. It didn't take Taylor long to feel comfortable cuddling up to him. Travis loved to put his arm around her and just hold her. "I'm happy to be here today", he whispered into her ear making her blush. "I'm happy that you're here too", she said getting lost in his eyes before giving him a small kiss. His smile just grew wider. "I could do this for a while, you know that?", he smirked. Taylor giggled. "Why don't you do it then?", she grinned. Travis got goosebumps seeing her blue eyes shine. And then he did kiss her again. But it wasn't just a small kiss this time.
They got lost in their moment for a few minutes. An outro playing on the TV reminded them of reality again. They both blushed more than any other time today but couldn't stop looking at each other. "I'm sorry, I didn't let you visit me on tour", she apologized again for what happened a few weeks ago. "Oh, I thought we talked about that. I can totally understand you. It was a bit surprising after our last date but I won't hold that against you. We don't have to rush anything. Actually, I think I should trust you if you feel like it's too soon to risk being noticed", he explained not breaking eye contact once. Taylor didn't even know why she brought it up again but his words still felt good. "I don't know. I'm just paranoid sometimes. You probably have to push me a little at some point", she admitted anyway. "We'll see, hm?", he just said giving her another kiss. It felt so new and at the same time, it was as it had always been this way. They had been talking so much via the phone that it felt like they really got to know a lot about each other. They just felt comfortable even though they hadn't met in person that often yet.
