Taylor swift mother imagines

meeting travis

OH HI! this one was a request from the beautiful tayswife1. sorry it took me like 5 months to post love 😭

Enjoy sweeties also i'm excited to see how long until i give up writing again 😭

"Momma do I have to?" I ask my mum, begrudgingly walking behind her down the stairs.

 I followed her to the kitchen while she took the roast chicken out of the oven and took it outside to the table, which was already set with fresh flowers and a gingham tablecloth. 

She was dressed in a cute yellow sundress since it was practically summer and a pair of light brown sandals. Me on the other hand, I was wearing my pjs. I didn't want to get ready, I didn't want to meet travis.

 "Babe, come on, all I'm asking for is 2 hours," she said calmly, but I knew she was slightly annoyed. I didn't want to meet Travis. I didn't need another father figure in my life. 

I already tried having one and he didn't give a damn about me so why does this guy care? Apparently he asked to meet me. creeper. 

"but momma i-" I turned to look at her, refusing to get ready. "y/n" she said, raising her voice. I stopped and looked at her. "All I am asking you to do is go up stairs and get ready, then to sit with us for max 1 hour and be nice to Travis, he is important to me.

 That's all. Please" her voice slightly faltering at the end. I nodded, tears brimming my eyes. "Ok, fine...sorry" I walked up the stairs. I didn't want to be mean to Travis, but I couldn't help it. I didn't want to get my heart broken again by a so-called man who wants to be in my life. 

After john told me to fuck of and never speak to him again, i swore my mum was the only person id ever trust like that again.

 That's how I liked it, we were safe, secure with nobody to mess it up. I let the hot water cover my body for a good few minutes, the scorching heat burning my skin made me feel kinda better. After that I dried myself and did my curl routine.

 For clothes I settled on a pair of low rise jeans and black tank top, easy and comfy. 

I slowly made my way downstairs a couple minutes later, feeling bad for how I treated my mum. "You look nice y/n" my mum stared at the salad she was making. Her voice was monotone, I screwed up. "Ma, i'm really sorry i" she cut me off by hugging me. 

"Don't be sorry baby, I'm sorry. I know this is a lot for you my love. I'm sorry "I hugged her for a while, staying in her nice tight embrace before breaking apart, tears running down my face.

 "Aw baby" mom wiped them off, kissing my head. "Do you wanna stay? You can go to your room if you want a baby?" I shook my head. "No mom, I'm ok, I just got a little reminded of? I trailed off. "Mr terrible father" she joked, referring to john. I nodded.

 "Its ok baby, Travis isn't like that" speak of the devil the doorbell rang not even 5 seconds after that. My mum let me open it while she took the salad outside. "Hi y/n" Travis walked through the door placing his bag down. I smiled, too nervous to say anything. I took a peek at his bag, which seemed to have brightly colored paper sticking out of it. My mom came back wiping her hands on her dress. "Hi baby" Travis hugged taylor. "I miss you" she kissed him. 

"Travis this is y/n, y/n this is travis" "hi y/n" travis's face crinkled into a smile and for a second i actually thought this might work. "Hi" I smiled back, before leaning in for a hug. Travis understood that and hugged me back. 

I smiled again, Travis's hugs were good. It was probably because he was a giant. "So I have lunch outside! Is anyone hungry?" my mum asked, breaking the not awkward silence, "starved" travis responded. 

"Mom made her famous crispy roast chicken. I told Travis when we sat down, making an effort to talk to him. "Really? Is it any good?" I nodded. "It's amazing" I laughed , pouring myself a coke and passing Travis a beer. After we ate we wanted to watch a movie. I had gotten a lot more comfortable around Travis so when he sat down on the couch I sat next to him. 

Don't get me wrong I was still quite scared about opening this part of my heart again but I felt safe with Travis, like maybe he would be different. "Ok what movie" my mom said next me leaning on a pillow. "Uptown Girls!" I exclaimed.

 "Ooo what's that one?" Travis asked, searching it up. "Only the best movie in the entire world," I said happily. 

"Can we watch cats?" mom chirps up "oh my god please no" i beg "oh tay seriously" travis complains, and we all burst out laughing. "You guys are no fun" mom pouts but i know she is happy me and travis are getting along.

 She pulls me to lay on her side and I snuggle up on her. "y/n i'll put uptown girls?" he asks. "Yes please!" "oh y/n i almost forgot" travis gets up just as the movies about to begin. I turn to look at him by the door grabbing his bag. 

"I got you something" he says sitting back down. "Omg travis" i gasp, "you didn't have to" i smile hugging him. He places a large rectangular box on my lap with cute rainbow squiggly doodles around it. I rip open the paper and see a brown box. I peel back the tape to reveal a chief's jumper and an 87 jersey. 

"I thought you might want to accompany your mum to the game next week?" he asks so innocently, i might cry.

 Maybe he really does care about me. "I would love that" I picked up the items, getting a closer look. "Thank you so much Travis, seriously, you don't know how much this means. Travis smiles, proud of himself "well i'm glad you like it" he hugs me again before going to put the rubbish in the bin. I turn to my mom with tears in my eyes "aw baby" she hugs me 

"i know, i know" she rubs my back soothingly, knowing exactly what i'm feeling. Happy, scared, anxious the list goes on, but she holds me, when travis comes back, through the movie, she just holds me and i fall asleep. "y/n love" she rubs my back. "Travis is leaving" i go to sit up and walk to the door, more awake now. "You know" I say to Travis, he turns around. 

"You're not like the others," I say quietly. "You're nice, you care," I told him. "About me" I whispered the last part, but he heard it. "y/n of course i care about you. I don't just want Taylor, I want to be in your life too. I care" my mom comes outside to kiss travis goodbye and i go back inside waiting in the kitchen. 

When my mom comes back in, I squeeze her, hugging tightly. "You did good my love" she whispers "im proud of you" she smiles kissing my nose. 

"Mama?" I ask. "Yes my love" she tucks a piece of hair behind my ear 

"can i sleep in your bed?"

Hope you enjoyed!! Requests are open 🫶🏻
