A/N: just a lil short one before school!!
Travis Kelce had become a household name, his career in the NFL skyrocketing him to fame. His face was plastered on billboards, his name chanted by thousands of fans every Sunday. He lived in a world of glitz and glamour, a far cry from his humble beginnings in their small hometown. Taylor Swift, on the other hand, had chosen a different path. She had always loved the simplicity of their town and decided to stay, leading a quiet life away from the spotlight.
Ten years had passed since their breakup, a decade filled with change and growth. Travis had become a superstar, his life a whirlwind of media attention and public appearances. Taylor, though incredibly talented, had preferred to stay out of the limelight, focusing on her music and community work. She was well-loved in their town, known for her kind heart and beautiful voice, but she had never pursued the fame that Travis had.
One crisp autumn evening, fate brought them back together. Travis was back in town for a brief visit, taking a break from his hectic schedule. He was out with his friends, enjoying a rare moment of anonymity in the place where he had grown up. Taylor was also out with her friends, celebrating a local festival that she never missed. The town square was bustling with activity, filled with laughter and music.
As Travis and his friends walked through the square, he spotted Taylor. She was laughing with her friends, her eyes sparkling with the same light he remembered from years ago. For a moment, he was transported back to their younger days, before fame had taken him away. Taylor saw him too, her smile faltering for just a second before she regained her composure. Their eyes met, and in that instant, the years seemed to melt away.
They approached each other cautiously, their friends watching curiously. "Travis," Taylor said, her voice soft and warm. "It's been a long time."
"It has," Travis replied, his heart pounding in his chest. "You look great, Taylor."
"Thank you," she said, a hint of a smile playing on her lips. "You too."
They stood there, surrounded by the noise and bustle of the festival, yet in their own little bubble. They talked about their lives, catching up on the years they had missed. Travis shared stories of his life in the spotlight, the highs and lows of fame. Taylor spoke about her music, her work with local charities, and the simple joys of living in their hometown.
As the evening wore on, they found themselves reminiscing about the past, the memories of their time together flooding back. They laughed about the silly things they had done, the dreams they had shared. It was bittersweet, a reminder of what had been and what could have been.
Their friends eventually joined them, and the group mingled, enjoying the festivities together. Travis and Taylor stayed close, their connection undeniable even after all these years. It was a night of reflection, of realizing how much they had changed and how much they had stayed the same.
By the end of the evening, as the festival was winding down, Travis and Taylor found themselves alone again. "I'm glad we ran into each other," Travis said, his voice sincere.
"Me too," Taylor replied. "It's good to see you happy, Travis."
"You too, Taylor," he said, a wistful smile on his face. "Maybe we'll see each other again sooner this time."
"Maybe," she said, her eyes twinkling. "Take care, Travis."
"You too, Taylor," he replied, watching as she walked away, blending into the crowd.
As Travis left the town square that night, he couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. He had achieved so much, yet there was something profoundly grounding about seeing Taylor again. She reminded him of where he came from, of the simpler times before fame had changed everything. It was a reminder that no matter how far he went, a part of him would always belong to this small town and the girl who had stayed behind.
