The summer sun hung low in the sky, casting a golden glow over the Sydney skyline as the warm breeze carried the scent of the ocean through the air. Taylor Swift stood by the window of her hotel room, watching as the waves lapped gently against the shore. It was Valentine's Day, but unlike the cold winters she was used to back in the States, here in Australia, it was the height of summer.
She'd been in Australia for a few days, preparing for the next leg of her tour. The warmth of the season and the beauty of the country had been a welcome change, but today, she felt a pang of loneliness. She missed Travis. Though they had exchanged loving messages earlier in the day, it wasn't the same as having him there beside her. She knew he was busy with training back in Kansas City, but she couldn't help but wish they could spend this day together.
As she sighed and turned away from the window, her phone buzzed with a message from Tree Paine, her publicist and close friend.
**Tree:** *Meet me in the hotel lobby in 10 minutes. And bring your swimsuit.*
Taylor raised an eyebrow, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. Tree was always up to something, and Taylor couldn't help but be intrigued. She quickly changed into a light sundress, slipping her swimsuit underneath, and grabbed a pair of sandals. The sun was still strong, and the day was far from over. Whatever Tree had planned, Taylor figured it would be something fun.
When she stepped into the lobby, she spotted Tree immediately. She was holding a large bouquet of red roses and a mischievous grin on her face.
"What's going on?" Taylor asked, her curiosity getting the better of her.
Tree handed her the bouquet, her grin widening. "Just trust me. You're going to love this."
"Tree, you're being so cryptic!" Taylor laughed, accepting the flowers. "But okay, lead the way."
Tree guided her outside, where a sleek convertible was parked at the entrance. The sun was still shining brightly, and Taylor couldn't help but feel her excitement grow. The day had taken a surprising turn, and she had a feeling it was about to get even better.
"Hop in," Tree said as she slid into the driver's seat. Taylor followed, tossing her sandals into the back and settling into the passenger seat. The warm leather was comforting against her skin, and as Tree started the engine, Taylor felt the anticipation buzzing through her.
They sped through the city, the wind whipping through Taylor's hair as they headed toward the coast. The streets were bustling with people enjoying the summer day, and the smell of saltwater grew stronger as they approached the beach. Taylor glanced over at Tree, who was still smiling, her eyes twinkling with secrets.
After a short drive, they pulled up to a private marina. Taylor's heart skipped a beat as she noticed a stunning yacht docked at the pier, its sleek lines cutting a striking silhouette against the deep blue sea.
"Tree, seriously, what is this?" Taylor asked, her eyes wide with wonder.
Tree just winked. "You'll see."
They walked down the dock, the sound of the waves gently lapping against the boats creating a soothing background melody. As they approached the yacht, Taylor noticed the staff waiting to greet them, but what caught her eye even more was the beautifully decorated deck.
The yacht's deck was adorned with twinkling fairy lights, their soft glow creating a magical atmosphere in the golden evening light. A table was set up in the center, covered with a crisp white linen cloth and topped with candles and roses, the epitome of romance. But what made Taylor's heart truly skip a beat was the sight of Travis Kelce standing beside the table, his eyes locked on hers with a smile that made her knees go weak.
