Taylor's POV

It was a few days later and we had finally arrived home. My Paris shows had gone so well and the fans really seemed to enjoy it. I had a nice small break now before my next shows so we had time to properly settle Harper in at home. I was just so happy that we were now all going to be together for a few weeks since Travis was already home. While I brought in all of the suitcases Harper ran into the house searching for Travis who met her at the bottom of the stairs, scooping her up and giving her a massive hug.

"Aww I've missed my little princess so much! How was Paris?  Did Mommy take you to look around?" He asked. Whoops. I didn't do that. We spent half the time arguing and trying to get Harper to either sleep or stop crying. The small girl shook her head a little before putting it down on his shoulder, starting to fall asleep.

Travis pulled me into a hug next, giving me a quick kiss. As we shared a moment a small hand made its way to my face, crashing into my cheek and causing a sudden moment of pain. "GO WAY HE MINE!" Harper screamed angrily, wrapping her arms around Travis' neck and giving me a death stare.

Why does this kid suddenly hate me so much?

"I take it she's overtired?" Travis asked and I nodded a little, letting out a big sigh. I was overtired too. I hadn't even had a minute to think. "She's been such a pain Travis she won't sleep then because she's overtired she won't stop crying then she acts up then she gets yelled at then she cries worse."

Travis chuckled to himself, gently rubbing her back and putting an arm around me. We sat beside each other and I slowly leaned into him, feeling Harper begin to hit me on the head multiple times. I slowly sat up and turned to her with a stern look. "Harper, stop hitting!"

The girl started to have a tantrum of course. She started kicking and screaming over me being close to my boyfriend. It was really annoying me. Instead of dealing with her I just walked away and went to my room where I lay down and fell asleep.

Harpers POV

I didn't know what I wanted, I was so happy to see Travvy that I made Tay Tay mad and now she just walked away. I didn't  know not to hit and now she was mad. Not only did she yell but she was just hiding away now. As much as I had missed Travis and I wanted to spend time with him I did miss Tay Tay.

I carefully made my way up the stairs to my bed, looking for my paci and Tay Tays hoodie since while we were in France every day they would be on my bed waiting for night night time. However they weren't there. Panicking I began to cry and scream, wanting some form of comfort.

Travis ran upstairs, picking me up into his arms and holding me like a little baby. I like that he does this, it makes me feel like I can cry and it be okay to cry. "Shh it's okay, what's wrong can you try to tell me how you feel? It's okay if you can't." He told me.

I continued to just cry, babbling out a bunch of words that just made no sense at all. Sometimes when I'm sad I find it hard to get my words out properly and I don't like to talk. I never know what to say to them. I wriggled as much as possible trying to get down and eventually Travis put me down. I ran straight to Tay Tay's room and went to her side of the bed.

I started crying louder when she didn't acknowledge me, beginning to hit her on the head. Eventually she acknowledged me however not in the way I had wanted. "STOP IT! Harper hitting isn't allowed just stop! Can't you see that I'm tired?" Taylor yelled as she put the pillow over her ears and rolled over. I wanted to tell myself that she was just in shock from waking up so fast but then she didn't apologize right after.

"Don't speak to her like that. She's a baby Taylor you're treating her like she's a teenager and she's not she's a literal baby! Help her she wants you and she was just trying to get your attention because you didn't wake up." Travis told her, coming over to pick me up.
