Pitch Perfect Harmony

Suprise In August

The few days Taylor and Travis had together in London went by way too quickly. They didn't leave the house for much but now he had to. Travis would go back to the US and would join her again after the Dublin shows just to have some more time together. "Have a good time in Dublin, okay baby?", he asked her when they hugged one last time. "And you celebrate that wedding like it's supposed to get celebrated. Tell them congratulations from me too", she said hand still on his cheeks after a kiss. "I will. I love you", he told her, and after a few more kisses he finally left.

Taylor was glad that she didn't have to be alone for long. She missed him already. But she had to pack her bags again for Dublin. Soon she'd be back in London to play her last European shows. And she had no idea what was going to happen before. The Dublin shows were fun. She had regained some energy cuddling with Travis all day and she could definitely put herself out there again. And all of a sudden, it was the last show day for Dublin already. She would go back to London for a couple of days afterward and Travis would come there too. That was the plan at least. She didn't know that Travis had jumped on a plane as soon as he had been able to and was already in Europe again. He was just entering the stadium hearing the fans sing louder than her. A familiar tinge spread from his stomach to his whole body. He missed her.

During August, he entered the tent and couldn't help but immediately get lost in the sight of her. It didn't take her long to look in the direction of the tent and of course, she noticed him. She would notice him everywhere. Her eyes grew wide and she couldn't hold a big surprised grin to herself. She'd never been happier to see him. It was almost challenging to keep singing and not immediately run to kiss him. He waved at her with a smile. The whole rest of the show felt longer than ever. But to Taylor, it was always so much better when he was there. Every applause felt so warm and she felt his pride on top of it. Today, him being here despite just coming from a different continent in a different time zone was the biggest and best surprise she could have gotten.

"Karma is the guy on the Cheifs coming straight home to me" was more true than ever. And underneath the stage, Travis was already waiting, pulling her in a big hug as soon as he could. He didn't care that she was sweaty, he just wanted to hold her. They both didn't even say anything for a good few seconds, just taking in the moment. "I missed you so much, I just had to come as soon as I could", Travis finally mumbled before kissing her head and then loosening the hug just enough to look at her. Taylor smiled up at him squeezing his arms as if she couldn't believe that he was actually there. "I missed you too", she answered. "Let's get you to bed hm? And tomorrow we go back to London for a bit", he said. "We could stay at the hotel a little longer now that you're here. It's a great room and we wouldn't go out anyway. Would save us some travel time", Taylor suggested. "Well, show me the room, then we can talk", he smiled to her surprise. "You weren't even there yet?", she was confused. "No, from the airport directly to you", he explained making her sigh with a soft smile. "You must be tired", she noted. "It's okay, but let's get going", he said, so they finally walked to her wardrobe.

Exiting the area directly behind the stage, fans spotted them, and a wave of applause and screams echoed down at them again. Taylor waved to them with a smile and Travis decided to jump in presenting her to the people. She didn't even notice at first but seeing him both arms kind of pointing at her made her giggle then. He could be such a dork. Shaking her head, she found her place by his side again and he walked her back to where she could finally get changed and take a quick shower. They soon jumped into the car and made their way to the hotel Taylor had been talking about. His bags had been brought here earlier, so he could carry her bag now and wrap an arm around her too. "It does look pretty", he noted judging from the outside of the hotel. And Taylor was right, the room had everything you needed for a couple of days off. Even a small kitchen. "You haven't even seen the best thing yet", Taylor said after watching him take in the suite. "Oh, I think I have", he winked and came to pick her up making her giggle.

She still showed him the whirlpool on the little balcony that was facing the yard of the hotel. You could see mostly just other balconies and the green yard that was almost like a little park. "Well, if your team has the hotel to themselves until you all have to leave for Amsterdam, I'd love to stay here for a bit longer", he said pulling her into a hug. Taylor nodded leaning into him. "I'll text Tree and security that we stay", she mumbled only slowly leaving his arms to go and pick up her phone. He watched her as she quickly typed out a message. He had missed her a lot. Not only in a romantic way to be honest. Travis couldn't stop himself from gazing at her body. These pretty curves that always felt so soft underneath his hands.

"You're undressing me with you're eyes aren't you?", she caught him staring, a subtle grin on her lips. "How can I not?", he admitted blushing a little before walking over to her. "And now I have you all to myself again", he mumbled sliding his arms around her waist and pushing her shirt up. "I thought of you", he whispered so close to her ear, it made her shiver. "Your naked body, moaning, desperate for my touch", he continued a little jokingly. And Travis' words didn't fail to affect her but she had just played the third show in a row. As much as her body reacted to him, it was also screaming for sleep. "Can we maybe continue this tomorrow?", she asked shyly not sure how he'd react. "You tired?", he asked kissing her head. "How can I not be?", she mocked him from earlier with a small grin. "Of course, baby. Let's get you to bed. First thing tomorrow after breakfast, I'll get the whirlpool ready, so your muscles can relax a little. How does that sound?", he asked. "Like a dream", she smiled reaching up for a kiss. "Sorry to leave you hanging", she added kissing him again but he shook his head breaking the kiss. "You don't ever need to be sorry for not being in the mood or whatever. It's always about both of us", he assured her.

"C'mon let's get to bed", he suggested next so they finally went through their bedtime routine before Taylor finally cuddled into his chest underneath the blanket. "Thank you for coming, Trav. I loved seeing you in the tent. This was the best surprise", she told him. "I just wanted to see you and hold you like this. Now close your eyes, hm? Good night, Allie. I love you", he answered making her smile again. "I love you too. Good night", Taylor mumbled before drifting off to sleep soon.
