This Is Amelia Trying- A Tayvis Story

Chapter 53

The Eras Tour had moved from the bustling streets of Melbourne to the vibrant energy of Sydney. The city, with its iconic harbor and bustling atmosphere, was ready to welcome Taylor and her fans for another series of unforgettable performances. For Amelia, the shift brought a mix of emotions—excitement, anticipation, and a touch of anxiety as they settled into their new surroundings.

The week in Melbourne had been challenging but also filled with moments of growth for Amelia. Staying backstage during Taylor's performances had become her new normal, and she found comfort in the routine they had established. But as the tour moved to Sydney, another wave of change was on the horizon.

Travis had flown in to join them, fresh from celebrating his Super Bowl victory with his team. The energy he brought was palpable, a mix of pride and joy from his recent success. Amelia had missed him more than she realized, and knowing he would be with them again brought a sense of comfort she had been craving.

When Travis arrived at their hotel, Amelia was the first to greet him. She ran into his arms, feeling the familiar warmth of his embrace. "I missed you," she said, her voice muffled against his chest.

"I missed you too, kiddo," Travis replied, lifting her off the ground in a tight hug. "How's it been here? You holding up okay?"

Amelia nodded as he set her back down. "It's been better since I've been staying backstage with Tree. But I'm really glad you're here now."

Travis smiled, ruffling her hair. "I'm glad to be here too. I've been thinking about you a lot."

As they settled into the hotel suite, Taylor joined them, her face lighting up at the sight of Travis. They embraced, sharing a moment of quiet relief that they were all together again.

"Welcome back," Taylor said softly, her arms still around Travis.

"Thanks, babe," Travis replied, leaning in to kiss her on the forehead. "I've missed you both so much."

The reunion brought a sense of normalcy back to their lives, a brief respite from the whirlwind of their separate careers. For Amelia, it was a reminder that no matter where they were, they were a family—a unit that faced challenges together.

As the days in Sydney progressed, the city's energy infused them with excitement. The three of them spent time exploring the sights, enjoying the rare moments of downtime before Taylor's shows. Amelia found herself laughing more, her anxiety easing with the presence of both Taylor and Travis.

The night before the first Sydney concert, they all went out for dinner at a quiet restaurant overlooking the harbor. The view was breathtaking, the lights of the city reflecting on the water, creating a serene backdrop for their evening.

"This is really nice," Amelia said, taking a bite of her pasta. "I like it here."

Taylor smiled, reaching across the table to squeeze her hand. "I'm glad you do. Sydney's a beautiful city, and I'm excited to share it with you."

Travis nodded in agreement. "It's a great place to unwind a little. I think we all needed this."

As they finished their meal, Travis leaned back in his chair, his gaze settling on Amelia. "You've been really strong through all of this, Amelia. I'm proud of you."

Amelia blushed slightly, looking down at her plate. "Thanks, Travis. It's been hard, but having you both here makes it easier."

Taylor's heart swelled with pride and love for Amelia. She had seen her grow so much over the past few months, facing challenges that would be difficult for anyone, let alone a teenager. The strength and resilience Amelia showed were remarkable, and Taylor knew that no matter what lay ahead, they would face it together.

The next day, as the tour's Sydney leg kicked off, the atmosphere was electric. Taylor and Amelia arrived at the venue early, with Travis by their side. The crew was already bustling with activity, preparing for another sold-out show. Amelia, feeling more at ease with the routine, stuck close to Taylor as they made their way backstage.

Before the concert began, Taylor took a moment to pull Amelia aside. "I'm going to do something special tonight," she said with a wink.

Amelia raised an eyebrow, curious. "What is it?"

"You'll see," Taylor replied mysteriously, giving her a quick hug. "Just know that it's for you."

As the concert began, Amelia stayed backstage with Tree, watching the show unfold on a monitor. The crowd's energy was infectious, and even from behind the scenes, Amelia could feel the excitement building.

Halfway through the show, Taylor paused between songs, her gaze sweeping over the sea of fans. She took a deep breath, smiling as she spoke into the microphone. "This next song is dedicated to someone very special to me. Someone who has shown incredible strength and courage, even when things have been tough. This one's for you, Amelia."

Backstage, Amelia's eyes widened as she heard Taylor's words. Her heart swelled with emotion as Taylor began to sing, her voice filling the arena with a warmth that reached straight to Amelia's soul.

It was a moment Amelia would never forget. The song, the dedication, the feeling of being loved and supported—it all combined to create a memory that would stay with her forever.

As the concert came to an end, Taylor rushed backstage, her face glowing with the exhilaration of the performance. Amelia ran to her, throwing her arms around her in a tight embrace.

"Thank you," Amelia whispered, her voice thick with emotion. "That was beautiful."

"You're welcome, sweetie," Taylor replied, holding her close. "I meant every word."

Travis joined them, wrapping his arms around both Taylor and Amelia. "We're proud of you, Amelia. You've been through so much, and you're still standing strong."

As they stood there, wrapped in each other's arms, the noise of the concert hall faded into the background. It was just the three of them, together, facing the world as a family.

No matter where the tour took them next, no matter what challenges lay ahead, they knew they had each other. And that was all they needed.
