Taylor Swift and Tree Paine Oneshots

Broken Foot Part 3

Requested by @Dafuz82

Back at Taylor's house, the atmosphere was a blend of quiet determination and careful adjustment. Tree had transformed Taylor's living room into a cozy recovery zone. The room now featured a plush recliner surrounded by soft throw blankets, a stack of books and movies, and a basket of snacks.

Taylor hobbled in on crutches, carefully navigating her way to the recliner. Her foot, encased in a freshly applied cast, was propped up on a mountain of pillows. Tree, ever attentive, had set up a small side table with Taylor's medication, a glass of water, and a plate of fruit.

Tree glanced up from her notebook as she placed the medication next to Taylor. "How's the foot feeling today?"

Taylor adjusted her position, wincing slightly as she propped her foot up higher. "Throbbing a bit," she admitted, her voice tinged with fatigue. "But it's not as bad as it was right after the accident."

Tree nodded thoughtfully, jotting down some notes. "That's good to hear. I'm going to keep track of your progress, make sure everything's healing properly."

Taylor raised an eyebrow, a small, appreciative smile playing on her lips. "You're turning into quite the medical expert."

Tree chuckled, giving Taylor a playful nudge. "Hey, I've had to learn a thing or two over the years. Now, how about we take a break from all this seriousness? I brought a selection of classic movies for us to watch."

Taylor's eyes brightened at the suggestion. "That sounds perfect. Let's go with something light-hearted. I could use a distraction."

As they settled into the recliner, Tree carefully adjusted Taylor's pillows to ensure her comfort. She popped a DVD into the player and dimmed the lights. The movie began, and the soft glow of the screen illuminated their faces.

Tree kept the conversation light, teasing Taylor about her clumsy antics during the tour. "Remember that time you tripped over your own shoelaces and almost fell into the crowd? You were like a walking, dancing disaster."

Taylor laughed softly, wincing slightly from the movement. "I try to forget that moment. But thanks for bringing it up."

They settled into a comfortable silence, the movie playing in the background. Tree occasionally glanced over, making sure Taylor was comfortable and pain-free.

The physical therapy sessions were an intense ordeal, leaving Taylor drained and exhausted. The exercises were rigorous, and Taylor struggled through each set with determination.

Tree accompanied Taylor to every session, her role as both friend and supporter evident. As Taylor labored through a particularly challenging set of exercises, Tree stood by her side, her voice a steadying presence.

"You're doing great," Tree said encouragingly, her voice filled with genuine admiration. "Just a little more, and you'll be done for today."

Taylor panted heavily, sweat streaming down her brow. "It's hard to believe how quickly you can go from being on stage to struggling to walk across a room."

Tree gently rubbed Taylor's shoulder, offering a reassuring touch. "It's a tough transition, but you're strong. You've got this. Remember, every small step counts."

As Taylor finished her exercises, she collapsed into a nearby chair, her energy spent. "I just want to get back to performing. It feels like forever since I've been on stage."

Tree sat beside her, handing her a towel and a bottle of water. "And you will. This is just part of the process. One step at a time. You're making progress, and that's what matters."

Taylor took a sip of water, her eyes reflecting a mix of frustration and hope. "I know, it's just hard to be patient."

Tree smiled, her eyes full of encouragement. "Patience is the hardest part, but you've already come so far. Keep pushing through, and soon enough, you'll be back doing what you love."

Taylor nodded, her spirits lifted by Tree's unwavering support. "Thanks, Tree. I couldn't do this without you."

As they left the therapy session, Tree helped Taylor back to the car, their conversation flowing easily. They talked about future plans, upcoming projects, and how Taylor would reintroduce herself to her fans when she was back on stage.

The road to recovery was still long, but with Tree by her side, Taylor felt more confident about facing each new challenge. They both knew that, despite the setbacks, Taylor's strength and resilience would see her through to a triumphant return.
