Tour Trouble - Taylor Swift

Part 12

Ellie's POV

I watched all of the dancers getting ready to go on stage, warming up, doing each others hair and doing their makeup. I just wanted to be involved. Taylor had said that maybe I should hang out in the dressing room with them all so that I could get closer with some of them and I could come out of my shell more but it just made it more obvious that I had ruined everything for Taylor.

I sighed and wrapped my blanket around me tighter, it had been storing all day due to how hot it was yesterday so the temperature had also dropped significantly. I made my way into Taylor's dressing room where she was in her makeup char getting her hair and makeup done. I saw her look over to me and smile. "Hey babes you okay?"

I nodded a little and curled up on the sofa that was placed facing toward her. I noticed her glimpse over at me multiple times before turning to ne fully. "What's wrong?" She asked me.

"How much do I have to say to be able to go on stage tonight?" I asked her. She must have known it was coming and she tossed me a sandwich. "You've had an Apple this morning and you ate half of your pasta at lunch which isn't really enough so if you can manage the whole sandwich then you can go on. But! You have to have a snack after the show before bed because a sandwich isn't enough to fuel you for a 3 and a half hour show and all the way until the next morning."

I nodded a little and took it out of the little sandwich bag before taking a few bites. My entire body tensed after a few bites and I looked up to Taylor, beginning to cry. She immediately made her way over and sat by me. "Come on, you can do it. How about you have half while I get my makeup done then once I'm finished my makeup artist can do you and you can have a break and finish the other half after." She suggested.

I nodded a little and watched as she made her way over to her makeup chair. She had taken my phone away from me so that I couldn't look at any negative comments or messages and she deleted all of my socials off my phone so even if I got it off of her I couldn't see anything.

I was bored out of my brain so the only thing I could do was eat. Somehow without even realizing I had eaten the whole thing. Taylor flashed me a proud smile and Travis handed me some water. Their lines of encouragement probably  helped me out a lot.

Taylor eventually got up, telling me to swap places with her. As I passed her she grabbed me and pulled me into an extremely tight hug and kissed my cheek leaving a red mark from her lipstick. I did not need a granny kiss at all. "I'm so proud of you baby you did so well!" She whispered.

I smiled and sat down in her chair where the makeup artist began to wipe the lipstick off my face. Before the lady could even begin Taylor had jumped up and made her way over. "Can I do her makeup?" She asked and the makeup artist nodded moving aside.

I looked at Taylor and laughed a little, some days she really is like an annoying friend but then she can also be like a big sister. Then there's the times when she really is like a second mom to me, it's hard not having any family here and it's like Travis and Taylor have just temporarily adopted me. I love it with them and I love it when Taylor does stuff like this.

Once she finished we went backstage and got ready to go on. "Are you sure you can do this? It's started raining too now and I just don't want you to panic." Taylor asked and I nodded. Why wouldn't I be able to do it?

We went on and it went very well but it was freezing! I hate rain and we were all wet and gross. We ran off and Travis was holding two towels which he handed off to Taylor. She wrapped herself up while he hugged me then she put one over my shoulders and hugged me. "Good job!" She told me.

I smiled a little and shivered. Who even lets these shows happen in the rain. We started walking back and I continued to shiver, Taylor gets it easy she has like 100 pairs of tights on and had her karma jacket on we all had to leave ours backstage. I felt her arm pull me a little closer to her. "You're a little quiet are you okay?"

"Just cold." I told her and she nodded before letting us into her dressing room where I got changed and lay on the sofa waiting for her to also get changed. She takes ages and I hate it because we end up spending like 30 minutes just waiting around for her. She does quick changes in like 2 minutes but can't get into normal clothes that fast. Baffling.

Eventually she came out of the bathroom and we got to make our way to the car. There were quite a lot of people screaming and waving at the car as we drove past but I didn't get it. They can't even see Taylor so why even try to wave? I think they're all just a bunch of psychos to be honest but I can't say that to Taylor, she gets offended. How she can love her obsessive fans so much I will never know.

By the time we got back and had some dinner. Well. Got forced to eat dinner. I had already had a meltdown so I was absolutely exhausted. I pushed away my plate and Taylor looked pleased with the amount that was left before throwing it away and taking me over to the sofa. She cuddled up to Travis so I just sat on the other side alone with a blanket and watched the movie. Sometimes it's a bit awkward because they are all close and stuff and I just awkwardly have to sit there.

I'd rather this than then make out in front of me though which often happens so I just sighed and moved my attention back to the tv. I could hear them talking to each other but  they make it so that I can't hear. I don't even want to hear. "Hey, why don't you come cuddle?" Taylor asked.

I immediately shook my head. "Nope I don't even want to hear what you're saying to each other so quietly. I'll stay here where I'm safe." I replied.

They both laughed a little and Taylor threw a pillow at my face. "Cheeky." She murmured before putting her head back down on Travis. We finished our film then all went to bed early, probably because we have another show tomorrow. I prefer being on stage to backstage so I'm going to try extra hard to eat my meals and be up there every night.
