Taylor's pov

i just got back from tour about 2 weeks ago and i haven't slept a full nights sleep since i've been home i'm happy travis hasn't noticed yet i would hate to be the reason he was overtired at practice but i wish i could just sleep. normally when i wake up in the middle of the night it's because of a lyric or a melody i can't get out of my head but now i just wake up and can't sleep

3:13 am
i wake up and look at the clock ugh not again i look over at travis peacefully sleeping i very quietly get up and walk into my little music room travis had set up for me at the new house i sit down at the piano and just play random chords no rhyme or reason the music room is pretty sound proof so it shouldn't wake travis up

after about and hour of trying to make sense of some melody i walk down stairs and let Rambo and Chance outside it's still dark but the sun is just starting to rise i lay on one of the patio chairs and Rambo curls up by my feet

i wake up and roll to face taylor when i realize that she's not in bed the worst way to wake up if you ask me i look over at the clock and see that is only 5 am the bathroom light is off so she's not in there

i get up and walk to the music room she's not in there so i walk downstairs and see the sliding glass door open i smile at the sight of taylor and Rambo curled up on one of the patio chairs as the sun is rising

i walk over to taylor "hi there" taylor looks up at me as i sit down on the chair next to her's "oh hi i didn't know you where up yet" taylor says closing her eyes again soaking in the sun
"it's really early baby what are you doing out here" i say reaching to pet Rambo

"just woke up and couldn't fall back asleep and the dogs wanted to come out so i just kinda sat here" i lay my hand on taylor's thigh "how long have you been out here sweetie" i say moving my thumb up and down her leg "i'm not sure not that long tho" she says "ok well why don't we go back to bed and try and get some sleep"
"ok" taylor agrees getting up and walking inside

we walk back up to our room and get in bed taylor cuddles up to me i can tell something's not right she seams really tired but isn't falling asleep "you okay baby" i ask very quietly while rubbing taylor's back "mhm" taylor replies while closing her eyes i take that as a sign she doesn't want to talk about it and let it be

7:33 am
I wake up still in travis arms he's still dead asleep i know he has practice later so i'm not going to wake him up if he doesn't have to be awake just yet

i pick my phone up off the nightstand and scroll mindlessly through various social media platforms "good morning honey" i hear travis say in his sleepy voice "good morning" i place my phone down and set my hand on travis chest "did you end up sleeping some more"

it's around 9 now which means there's no need to worry trav when he has to be at practice in an hour "ya i just got up a few minutes ago" i say as he kisses my temple "that's good, i'm going to shower quick then we can have breakfast before i leave" he says getting up

"ok" i respond getting up and going down stairs to make breakfast i'm kind of tired so i decided to just make french toast because it's easy and one of travis favorites

just as i'm finishing breakfast travis comes down the stairs "coach just canceled practice so I just have to go in for media if you want to come, I know Brit will be there too and probably Linsey" he says sitting down next to me with his plate
