Taylor POV

I woke from my sleep, my arms still wrapped around Travis' body. I didn't want to wake him so instead i made myself comfortable and closed my eyes again. 

I felt so incredibly cold but i knew that really i was most likely over heating. My throat was so sore and my head was throbbing, trying to not wake up Travis failed horribly as he pulled me close to him tightly wrapped his arms around my torso.

"Good morning" i whisper into his chest 

"Good morning, how are you sweet girl?" he asks kissing my hair 

"Not good" i honestly express 

"Yeah your voice doesn't sound to good" 

I pull away from him and rest my body on my elbows "you know I've had a lot of people say that i cant sing but i never thought you would say that my votive sounds shit" 

"No i didn't mean it like that i promise" he says pulling me back down to him 

"I know i was just having a joke" i laugh out that doesn't sound like a laugh at all 

"Okay, time for you to rest y

"our voice otherwise it wont get better" Travis says while getting out of bed 

"Oh so now your telling me to shut up" 

"You are impossible" 

The morning consisted of Travis arguing with me about resting and feeling the need to take care of every little thing. It had reached midday and i just awoke from a small nap. 

I get back out of the bed for the second time and walk out into the living area of the hotel and see Travis putting all his bags at the door before turning to see me

"Hey sleepy head" 

"You're leaving?" i ask knowing the answer 

"I'm sorry princess i have to"  he pulls me into a hug and i rest my head on his chest

"Call me later" i mumble 

"I promise but you have to promise that you will rest and take care of yourself" Travis pulls my head away from him to make eye contact

"Yeah yeah" 

Travis' hand rubs over my cheek and leans his head closer to mine and my hand once again makes contact with bis face before his lips can connect with mine. 

"Princess" Travis complains 

"I am not getting you sick" i stay sternly 

Travis POV

I say goodbye to Taylor only kissing her forehead in result of her not wanting me sick and i make my way down the hallway of the hotel and stopping at Evelyn's room.  I knock on her door with a gentle but firm tap of my fist and the door swings open.

"Oh hi Travis" She says rightfully confused 

"Hey, sorry to bother you but i need a favor from you" 

"Yeah what is it?" she asks 

"Taylor is sick and she wont look after herself properly and i have to leave so would you mind just making sure she is okay tonight maybe?" i ask 

"yeah of course i will, Safe travels on your way home as well" she agrees without hesitation 

With that i leave the hotel and make my way to the plane. regretting once again leaving my love on the other side of the world.

Evelyn POV

Once Travis had walked away i went back into my room and get changed for the day. the way he loves Taylor is so incredibly beautiful and i can only wish that one day i will get to experience even half of the love that those two share for each other. 

Once i am dressed and look presentable enough to see my boss i leave my hotel room and make my way over to hers, Taylor had this habit that every time we booked into a new hotel she would tell all of us dancers the number to her room just in case we need needed her throughout our stay. 

I knock on her door and she opens it soon after. It was no secret to anyone that Taylor looked like a barbie doll on most days and she had a natural beauty to her but right now she looked tired, her hair was in a bun and she was in a onesie. her eyes looked heavy as if she hadn't slept for years and her face had a red glaze over it like she had just gone for a run but she gave off the impression that she was incredibly cold.

"Hey, are you okay?" she asked, Crazy how that works right? The person who is sick is asking me if i was okay, she was way to nice for her own good. 

"Yeah i am, are you?" i counter 

"Um yeah, sorry did you need me for something?" she askes another question, rubber her hands over her eyes 

"No i just heard that you were sick and i wanted to make sure you were okay" i say now feeling bad that i had disturbed her 

"Travis told you i was sick didn't he?" 

I didn't need to reply because the smile that grew upon my face said exactly what i would have 

"I am okay i promise but you can come in if you want" she offered moving out of the way of the door frame so i could now walk into the room 

"can i get you anything, you say you're okay but you are sick" i offer but she just shakes her head 

"I don't need anything but i wouldn't mind some company if you have nothing else to do for a few hours" she replies closing the door as we both find a place on her couch in either of the corners 

"Of course" i reply 

for at least an hour we find ourselves engaging in small talk about the tour and just general life things that randomly pop into our head. 

"Would you like to eat anything i am getting hungry so i'm going to order some food" Taylor offers 

"I am okay but thank you for the offer" 

"How have you been with food?" she starts before quickly looking up at me 

"I'm so sorry i didn't mean to over step it's just that you have-" she starts to ramble but i quickly cut her off 

"No you aren't overstepping, I appreciate that you care and i am really thankful that i have you to talk to about these things" i take a breath 

"I have had multiple therapy sessions with my therapist and we have spoken about food a lot and i know it's important and i need the energy to be able to perform but sometimes it is just hard and i hate trying to explain that to her i don't know i don't know its just hard when you are trying to talk to someone about something they have never experienced" i explain 

"I understand that it is definitely hard but if it means anything i am incredibly proud of you for getting help and whenever you need to i am here to talk through some things with you or even just listen to you" she offers 

"It means a lot thank you"

The rest of the day consisted of us talking, the food Taylor had ordered had arrived, she ended up ordering me the same thing as her- tenders and chips. Taylor had made it very clear that i didn't have to eat if i didn't feel like it but truth be told i had been a little hungry.
