[ FAMILY ] t i e s. - a tayvis story.

[ NINE ]

"Kylie just texted me and said she wants to leave." Taylor told Travis and Selena as they boarded their plane. From Florida, they headed to Philadelphia. There were a few things Taylor needed to do in the city before they headed back home. Chris, Patrick, Brittany, Bronze, and Sterling took one jet back home, while Taylor, Travis, Selena, Koa, Khi, and Magic went to Philadelphia.

"What happened?" Selena asked, making herself comfortable in her seat.

"She didn't say, just said she needed to leave Philly." Taylor was kind of worried now. She noticed a hint of hurt in Kylie's eyes when they were going their separate ways earlier, but now she was worried that Jason or his family had done something to harm her. Maybe even to expose them. Luckily, none of them mentioned where they lived or where they were off to after the trip.

"Are we going to have to murder somebody?" Selena asked, letting out a sigh.They had been pretty good about not harming anyone since the night everything happened over four years ago. They were very serious about protecting themselves and their families from anything that could tear them apart. 

"We are not murdering anyone," Travis chimed in. "We have people for that now."

"We had people a few years ago...." Taylor reminded him. 

"Those were personal..." Travis said. It was personal. It was Taylor's mother that had been killed t the hands of her father. It felt person, even to Travis. He loved Andrea like no other. She had taken him as one of her own from the moment he started dating Taylor. She was the mother he had always dreamed of having. The support he had for Taylor and him was unmatched, and she was one of the most nonjudgmental people he had ever encountered in his life. 

"This would also be personal," Selena said, looking at them both. She wasn't wrong. If someone was messing with Kylie, and that someone was Jason or even Jason's parents, it would be a personal issue that they would most likely end up wanting to handle themselves. 

"No," Travis said with a laugh. Taylor crossed her arms across her chest. Travis placed a quick kiss on her pouted lips. "We're not doing that again. We will get someone to do it for us if we need to. I don't care how personal it may be. We have too much at stake. We're on good terms in every country we visit. Let's keep it that way." It took some time, but Travis had gotten his name cleared back in America. He could travel there freely without the fear of possibly being arrested. 

"You never let us do anything fun." Taylor continued to pout and she stomped her foot playfully.

"I'll show you what real fun is later," he whispered, kissing her again. She smiled into their kiss, putting her arms around his neck as he leaned her back onto the couch. 

"Aht aht. None of that." Selena said, throwing a pillow at the two of them. 

"You're no fun either," Taylor said, laughing once Travis broken this kiss. 

"We have an eight-hour flight ahead of us with company," Selena told the two of them. 

"All the better time to play," Travis said. "Gotta get Kylie used to our shenanigans since she'll most likely be staying with us." Right as Travis said that, Taylor looked down at her phone again. Another text message from Kylie. Reading the text, she debated on if she should tell Travis or not what it said.

"Jason is with her." Taylor thought about not telling Travis those details, but she also would never keep anything from him this important.

"That's shocking," Travis replied.

"Are you okay with that?" Taylor asked, looking into his eyes, searching for his feelings. His feelings were held in his eyes. Every bit of happiness or sadness could be found there if you looked hard enough.
