Racing Hearts

The One and Only

As Theo stood backstage, her heart pounding with excitement and anticipation, she couldn't believe her luck at finally meeting Taylor Swift in person.
'I will forever thank Claire for the rest of my life,' thought Theo as she waited.

Her heart raced with anticipation as Taylor approached, radiant and poised.

"Hi, I'm Taylor," Taylor greeted warmly, extending her hand in greeting.

Theo's eyes widened with awe as she shook Taylor's hand, her voice trembling with excitement. "Hi, I'm Theo," she replied, her words tinged with disbelief. "It's such an honor to meet you."

Taylor's smile was genuine as she looked at Theo, her eyes reflecting warmth and kindness. "The pleasure is all mine," she said, her voice filled with sincerity.

As Taylor and Theo settled into conversation backstage, Taylor couldn't help but notice Theo's raspy voice, a result of the excitement and strain of the concert.

"Are you feeling alright?" Taylor asked, her concern evident in her voice.

Theo nodded, offering a reassuring smile. "I'm okay, just a bit under the weather. But meeting you is worth every bit of it," she replied, her admiration for Taylor shining through despite her hoarse voice.

Taylor's eyes softened with understanding. "I'm sorry to hear that," she said, reaching out to place a comforting hand on Theo's arm. "You sound like you've been cheering for hours."

Theo chuckled softly, nodding in agreement. "Guilty as charged. Your concert was incredible, Taylor. It was everything I ever dreamed of and more."

Taylor's smile widened at Theo's words, her heart warmed by the genuine enthusiasm in her voice. "Thank you so much," she said sincerely. "It means the world to me to hear that."

"So how do you feel after giving such an amazing performance tonight?" Theo asked as she followed Taylor into the green room.

"Oh it was such a blast!" The singer replied as she sat down on the couch. Theo is sitting a few feet away from her in a chair.

"Honestly I feel like I can do this forever man. The fans, I love them to death, and the way they sang along with me was just so magical." The singer's eyes were sparkling as she continued to talk.

"I can only imagine. Your fans truly love you, your songs are amazing, not to mention how breathtaking and gorgeous you look on stage!" gushes Theo as her accent slips out.

Blushing, Taylor decided not to fawn over the accent or the comment the f1 driver had made. "Well your buzz cut looks hot as fuck." Taylor says with a smirk as this time Theo was the one blushing.

Taken aback, Theo rubs her hand over her freshly buzzed hair, trying to calm down the heat that was growing in her cheeks and ears.

"Thanks, I decided to do it for my little cousin." Theo admits sheepishly. Curious, Taylor cocks her head to the side with a confused face. Theo thought it was absolutely adorable.

"Is your cousin ok?" Taylor asks.

"Well he was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and things aren't going well for him." The f1 driver replied sadly.

"I'm so sorry to hear that, Theo. That must be incredibly difficult for you and your family," she said softly.

"Thanks," Theo murmured softly.

As their conversation shifted to lighter topics, Theo's accent slips out more and more.

"What accent do you have" Taylor asked curiously, making Theo chuckle, "Oh I have an Italian accent. Sometimes I speak with a  French accent as well. I got that from my mum." Theo replied laughing.
