Forevermore /// Taylor Swift

Aftermath

Taylor's pov

I'm really concerned for Havyn, everything that's happened to her has truly affected her deeply. I wish I could take it all away and allow her to live her childhood to the fullest, like her siblings do.

I made sure she was asleep before making my way back downstairs towards the party of people, the gathering had gotten smaller and was just mainly my close friends still here. I sat down beside Travis, leaning against him. He wrapped his arm around my shoulders, stroking my arm gently.

"Is Havyn okay?" He whispered, planting a kiss on the side of my head.

I nodded, "panic attack, I'm going to check on her every so often." I looked up at him, he just brought me reassurance every time I saw him. I knew everything would work out.

"Okay, we can take turns." He smiled as I put my head on his shoulder, listening into the conversation Blake, Selena and a few others were having.

"How's Havyn?" Selena turned to me.

"She's okay." I smiled, hoping it was true.

"She's so like you, Tay," Blake beamed, "she's gorgeous."

"And the little two? Adorable!" Gracie squealed with excitement.

I nodded, "they're all amazing." I smiled, glancing at Travis. He was beaming at the talk of his little family.

"I don't remember life without them," he squeezed me closer to him, "they're the best things that have happened to us."

I nodded in agreement, hoping the adoption with Theo and Maisie would go through smoothly. I've been fighting for them for so long, why? I'm not even sure. It just makes sense that they stay here with people who love them and their big sister.

I started to play with Travis' fingers, which hung from my shoulder. It's more of a nervous thing I do if anything else, trying to reassure myself when things get tough. Especially after tonight with Havyn and then thinking of adoption, it all makes me feel a bit anxious. We didn't know if our family would stay the same or not, unsure if we could keep two of our children. I was scared for Havyn, she's already struggling. Taking her siblings away would be incredibly traumatic and difficult for her, for all of us.

Travis took my hand in his and squeezed it. I looked at him, seeing him staring back. I just smiled, knowing how lucky I was.

"You okay?" He whispered.

"Yeah." I mumbled, resting my head back against him.

A while later, everyone was still in deep conversation as I heard to door open slowly. I looked up to see Havyn, she seemed terrified and confused. I smiled and opened my arms for her to come and join Travis and I on the couch. She accepted and scurried over to us, sitting on my lap. I rubbed her back as she curled into me, facing Travis.

"How are you feeling, Haves?" He gave her a soft smile, tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear.

She shrugged, resting her head on my shoulder and Travis' chest as we were very close to each other. She was so small for her age still, wishing I could make things better for her. I rubbed her back, allowing her to stay with us for a while.

Not too long after, everyone started to leave at around 3am. Havyn had gone back to sleep on my lap so Travis saw our guests out. I held her close, kissing the top of her head and resting my cheek on it as well.

"Ready?" Travis stood at the door, coming over to take Havyn from me.

He carried her upstairs as I followed behind, she didn't wake up once. Travis took her into our room, not even questioning if he should put her in her own bed or not.

He turned to look at me, "I know you're worrying about her."

I smiled, giving him a hug. We stood for awhile in each others embrace, enjoying the company. My head was on his chest, looking at our girl tucked into our bed.

"I love you, Trav," I mumbled into him, "you're the perfect dad for these three."

I looked up to him, seeing a tear in his eye. He kissed me softly, "I love you, Tay. I meant every word that i said earlier. This family is everything to me."

I smiled and kissed him again, before joining Havyn in our cozy bed.

Havyns pov

I woke up in between Taylor and Travis in their bed. Taylor and I were facing each other as I studied her face which was so similar to mine. Her messy blonde hair still framed her face perfectly. The events of last night were zooming around my brain, trying to make sense of it. I was so anxious and scared of everything, it was ruining my life and probably Taylor's.

A little while later, Taylor started to stir opening her eyes to look at me. A smile crept onto her face, when she realised I was doing okay this morning.

"How are you feeling?" She asked in a sleepy tone.

"I'm okay," I smiled at her, "thank you for last night."

She smiled, twirling my hair around her finger. I snuggled closer to her, allowing my head to be stuffed into her chest. Wanting to be as close to her as possible, remembering how much I needed my mom last night and now I have her presence. She rubbed my back gently, kissing my forehead gently.

"I'm so sorry for ruining the party." I whispered into her, remembering sitting on Taylor's lap disallowing her from enjoying herself.

"Don't be silly, baby, you're way more important than a silly party. It was your party anyway." She smiled at me.

Travis groaned beside me, "how are two of my favourite girls this morning?"

I giggled at his comment, knowing he was including Maisie in it as well. Taylor smiled, glancing at him. He started to tickle me, forgetting that I was fourteen years old I laughed like a little kid. Realising this was the childhood I missed out on and yet, Taylor and Travis were allowing me to make some of the memories.

"That reminds me, Maisie and Theo will be dropped off soon." Taylor giggled at the two of us, Travis stopped and sat up.

"I've training today." He went to the bathroom to get ready after pecking Taylor on the lips. I felt Taylor's arms hug me closer to her again, enjoying each other's presence. Until we heard the door open downstairs, two sets of little feet came running to the bedroom door. It flew open, revealing my favourite two little siblings.

"Mommy! Havie!" They both shouted, climbing up towards us. Taylor wrapped her arms around Theo as he made it to us first, before pulling Maisie in as well.

"Hey sweeties." She beamed at their cuteness.

Glad for the family we had, wanting this to last forever. Even with the panic attacks and incidents that happen to all of us. This is the what we wanted in life.
