Bad Day

A/N idk when im next going to be able to update but I have like 5 half finished stories

Travis had just got back from practice, and he was not happy. He was tired and was in a mood- his coach had been snapping at him all day.

He unlocked the door and stepped into the hallway, dropping his bag onto the floor and setting his keys down. Before he had time to think Taylor came from the kitchen, launching herself at him and throwing her arms around his neck.
"Hi babyyy" she grinned, hugging him. He pushed her away lightly, not in the mood.
"Hi" he grumbled, pushing past her and into the living room. Taylor was obviously hurt by this, but tried to brush it off.

"Did you have a bad day? Do you wanna talk about it?" Taylor asked, flopping down next to him on the sofa. Travis just grumbled something in response, turning on the television.
"Well... I made dinner if you're hungry? Your favourite" she smiled at him but he didn't answer. He pressed play on the football game as the sounds of cheering filled the room.

"Will a hug make you feel better?" Taylor asked her boyfriend sweetly, leaning over and wrapping her arms around him.
"Oh my god Taylor, just leave me alone. Stop being so bloody annoying and clingy" Travis pushed her off, yelling in her face. Taylor slowly picked herself up off the floor, leaving the room with her head hung and tears filling her eyes. Travis just went back to watching the game, unaware of his much he had hurt Taylor.

She went up to their room, locking the door behind her. She layed down on the bed and cried. This is how Joe used to treat her, and she never thought Travis would do that. She thought he was better. But evidently not.

About half an hour had passed and Travis turned off the television, aware of the silence in the house. He got up off the sofa, making his way into the kitchen. The table was laid out already, with his favourite homemade dish- lasagne - I'm the middle of the table. It was probably cold by now, Travis thought to himself. Taylor had even gotten out the nice plates, with the cutlery laid next to them and the napkins in cute little flowers. Travis felt really guilty after seeing what Taylor had done for him and he just pushed her off like she was a piece of dust.

He made his way up to their room, deciding that was probably where she had gone. He knocked on the locked door, hearing sniffing coming from the other side.
"Taylor?" He called gently. Taylor wiped her eyes, climbing out of bed. She unlocked the door and walked right past the waiting Travis, not even looking at him. She went down the stairs and could hear Travis following her.

She entered the kitchen before Travis, picking up the cold lasagne and placing it in the microwave to heat up. Travis watched her as she picked up the napkins, folding them normally. She then retrieved the dish from the microwave, serving herself then sitting down. She picked up her cutlery and started cutting it up, ignoring Travis completely.

Travis served himself then sat down opposite his girlfriend, watching as she played with her food.
"This is delicious, thank you Tay" he said, after taking a bite. Taylor completely ignored him, still swirling the food around her plate. After about five minutes of this, Taylor stood up and scraped her un-eaten food into the bin, going over to the sink and washing up her plate.

Travis watched her in silence, eventually deciding to speak up.
"I'm sorry Tay, can we talk?" He asked her. He felt so guilty and just wanted his happy smiling girlfriend back.
"Its getting late, I'm going to bed" Taylor mumbled, her back still to him. She placed the plate in the drying rack and went upstairs, getting in the shower.

Travis cleared his own plate away, deciding to go to bed as well. He had had a shower after practice so didn't need one now, so he just got changed into a pair of shorts and climbed into bed. After about fifteen minutes Taylor came out of the bathroom, her curly hair dry, in a pair of her cat pyjamas. Not one of Travis's shirts like she usually did.

She climbed into bed without a word. Travis tried pulling her in for a hug but she just pulled away, laying with her back to him. This is when he knew she was really mad. He decided to leave it until tomorrow when she had cooled off a bit to talk.

The pair spent the night not in each others arms for the first time in a while. Travis managed to get to sleep in the end but Taylor didnt, and at about 2am she gave up. She climbed out of bed and went to her music room, shutting the door.

At 6am she went downstairs to make breakfast. She hasn't slept at all that night, and was exhausted. She sat at the table with her coco pops, scooping them into her mouth slowly, thinking of the previous days events. Maybe she'd overreacted? But what Travis had done did really hurt- she was just trying to make him feel better.

Travis woke an hour later to an empty bed. He got up, wondering where his girlfriend had gone. He went down the stairs and made his way to the kitchen, stopping in the doorway. He smiled fondly at his girlfriend sitting with her back to him at the table. She looked adorable in her pink kitty pj's, her blonde curly hair a cloud around her head and her feet in fluffy pink socks.

"Morning baby" Travis said, coming up behind her and kissing her on the cheek. Taylor burst into tears. Travis stepped away, taken aback by this sudden outburst.
"Tay? What's wrong?" Travis asked worriedly, kneeling infront of her.
"I'm sorry" Taylor sobbed, putting her head in her hands.
"What for baby?" Travis asked her, gently removing her hands and looking into her tear filled eyes.
"I was ignoring you yesterday" Taylor cried, taking a shaky breath. "Its- Its just you r-really hurt my- my feelings, b-but now I feel b-bad"
"No no no, don't feel bad, that was my fault and I'm sorry- I had a bad day and shouldn't have taken it out on you" Travis apologised, wrapping his arms around his sobbing girlfriend. She hugged him back, melting into his embrace.

After her sniffles had died down Travis pulled away, gazing into her tired blue eyes.
"Did you sleep at all?" He asked, only just noticing the bags under her eyes. Taylor shook her head sheepishly, looking down.
"I couldn't sleep without you" she whispered.
"Come on" Travis picked her up bridal style, making her squeal.
"We" he carried her to the stairs. "Are going to have a nap" he took her into their bedroom, dropping her down on the bed. "Together" he jumped into her beside her, smiling at her adorable giggles. He pulled her into him and this time she stayed, curling into his chest.
