An Unlikely Pair

9| stay strong taylor

—-third person—-

Taylor goes back out to Travis and climbs onto his lap wrapping her arms around him

He runs his hands up and down her back under his shirt that she's wearing

"You need anything baby?" He asked while planting kisses along her trap and neck

"Mmmmm can we lay down?" Taylor mumbles into his neck as he's already getting up holding her

—-first person 🎀🎀——

I just deadweight myself, at this point it's too late and I'm too tired to hold on
He's strong, he's got it

He lays me down on the bed and I don't even give him a chance to do a single thing before I pull him down onto him wrapping my arms and legs around him like a koala

"It's time for beddddd" I say closing my eyes and rubbing his back

He just laughs and looks up at him, I feel his gaze
So obviously I peek and smile at him, placing a soft kiss on his lips

"Goodnight handsome" I mumble against his lips

"Goodnight pretty" he mumbles against mine

I reach over and turn off the little bedside lamp that was illuminating the room, and we both settle down for bed

After what feels like thirty seconds my eyes open back up and I start thinking about tour,paparazzi, but especially Annabelle.

What if she's mad at me?
Am I making enough time for her?
Should I go visit her now?
Does she hate me?

A million thoughts just race through my head, and that's a million more reasons I won't be able to sleep

I reach over and grab my phone going to her contact

"Hey darling!! I know it's late and I said I couldn't visit, but if you're awake I can come for the night if Blake and Ryan are okay with it!!" I text and nervously watch for bubbles to appear

"wait actually?? You don't have too if you don't want too, I know you're busy and stuff but will you come? It's so boring and mom and dad said it was fine " she texts back almost instantaneously

"I'll be there in a bit 🩷" I text and start slowly sliding out from under Travis

Until some yeti like instincts come out and he pulls me back mumbling something inaudible

"Trav baby I have to go I'm going to Blake's to see my niece" I whisper while I rub his head

"Mm mmmm it's late it's bedtime" he mutters into my trap while falling into a deeper sleep

I wait I'm positive he's completely out of it to slide out from under him and get dressed

"I tried to tell you but you were so deep asleep I couldn't, I'm staying at Blake and Ryan's tonight. I'll text you and tell you which way to come into the airport 🩷 I'll see you in the afternoon, but make sure to text me when you wake up!! xo, Tay :)" I write out on a piece of hotel paper and sneakily make my way out the door

I'm able to get into my car without being seen, and I start making my way to Blake's.

"Just act normal
She can't know anything yet, you can't tell her a single thing even if she looks at you with those eyes
Don't say anything weird to make her thing something is off" I repeat out loud to myself at a low level the whole way there.

I get there and by the time I get out of my car I'm immediately welcomed by a big loving embrace from belle

"Oh belleyyyyy I missed you!" I coo while kissing her head and rubbing her back
"How's break been? Aren't you so glad it's summer?" I say looking down at her and rubs her cheeks with my thumbs

" I missed youuuuuuuu but ohmygod you don't even know how fast I wanted to get out of that jail. And i literally still have a whole year left until high school it's not fair" she pouts while looking at me with those eyes

Stay strong Taylor.

"High school isn't all you think it is, it's pretty ass and it's a jail too. But! You are coming to my concert next weekend so you don't get to mope about while you're there. It's a rule" I saw while turning her around and walking inside

"Only if you try to convince mom to let me drop out and let me become a delivery driver" she says while looking back at me
"My bike would work great, I could do Uber eats, or dominos, or anything" she continues

"Iiiii don't think the president could even convince Blake to let you merely think about dropping out, sooooo I can't help you there" I smile and kiss her head and make my way to the couch

"Can I crash the concert? Just like run on stage or something?" She asks with that adorable smile she's had forever while she lays her head on my lap sprawling her legs on the couch

"Oh totally yeah, you could make it past the security sooooo easy darling" I say laughing a bit and running my fingers through her hair

"Right like I'm so much stronger" she says laughing a bit and looking at the show on the tv

"I love you belle, okay? I just I want you to know that I love you with my whole heart and you're just so so incredible" I say rubbing her cheek with my free hand

"Are you dying or something? I mean you say I love you, and I love you too but you're not like gonna die right?" Belley asks turning her head to me

"No baby I just wanted to make sure you knew okay?" I smile softly

"I love you too aunt tay" she says smiling and turning back to the tv

Why does that sting so badly?
She's called me that since she's been able to talk.
Is it because I know soon I won't be aunt tay anymore?
I'll be more, but it's a whole new chapter.
It's practically a whole new book I'm about to open up.
And I'm more than terrified.
