Carolina Knows - Taylor Swift

1

There's blood everywhere, screams, and another gunshot. There's blood under my fingernails, I knew it was going to happen. Why would I even come here in the first place? I'm such a fucking idiot. I looked at the main stage, Taylor, she's harmed, she's bleeding, poor girl. I don't have time to think, someone grabs my waist and I try to look who it is, but then I faint.

"So, when Style comes on, we try to make the biggest mess possible." says a man with a mask on, "Exactly, bombs, guns and attention. We will be HISTORY the saviours of the ears" the group is laughing, I can't believe it! I gasp, shit I shouldn't have done that. They look at me and all of a sudden there's a gun next to my head, "You're not going to tell a word to the police a word, or you'll be dead a second later, understood?" I was so in shock I couldn't do anything except give a small nod. When one of them releases me I run away and don't look back. I wake up in a sweat, and I keep getting nightmares of them, it happened a year ago and the eras tour is in a few days, maybe that's why I'm extra nervous, it's not going to happen right? It can't.

I can't believe it's front row to THE eras tour. Am I dreaming? The intro starts, I am absolutely loving it so far, I've been obsessed with Taylor Swift since 1989 came out, and the first time seeing her life, in my country! It's insane, I'm watching with my eyes full of tears and when Taylor sees me she blows a kiss! Aaaaah! A dream coming true! The show continues, the cutest little girl gets the 22 hat and I'm in awe, such a cutie! Then it all happened, Style started playing, but not for long, I saw someone throwing a bomb, a male, tall, strong and holding up a sign saying "Saving the ears", I can't believe it, THIS show they're doing the attack, I wished it was a joke, I see Taylor and the dancers run off the stage, screams, many screams, I hear a shot,  all of the sudden I can't breathe. I rub my back, blood under my fingernails, Taylor is almost at the exit of the stage but then another explosion follows, she's injured, luckily not much, a little wound on her leg, poor girl. I try to think but fail, someone grabs my waist, I try to see who it is, but then I faint.

"Is my daughter going to be okay?" I hear a voice, it sounds like my mom, I feel so bad for her, I should've told them "Her heart is doing just fine, no critical places were injured" I hear a man say. I open my eyes and see my parents, my little brother Kevin and Taylor and Travis. That was NOT on my bingo card, what are they doing here? Are they seriously injured? "Oh sweetie, you're awake!" my mother screams, "Aw, I wanted Carolina's room!" I hear my little brother say "Kevin! Your sister was about to die, and you are disappointed?!" my father screams at him, when I look further into the hospital room, there are 2 cops, shit, do they know I knew all along? Did the real terrorists shove the blame over to me? I just heard them! The cops say "Carolina, we would like to speak with you in private if you're okay with that." Honestly, I just woke up, and they already want to have a chat with me, I want to refuse, but I don't "Sure, that's fine with me." Everyone leaves the room, I hear interviewers say "Have you talked to the girl?" and some other questions, but I can't focus, one of the cops begins asking a question "Could you tell me exactly, how, why and when you found out, we did research and figured out you knew already." I started shaking uncontrollably "I was walking to the supermarket, I took a shortcut and there was a group of man with masks on talking about their plan, they would kill me if I told anyone about it, I was so scared I never dared to tell anyone. Curiosity got the best of me there, really." The other cop was writing every word down, from their strict form they went more into a relaxed mode. That gave me some space to breathe. "We know enough, thank you for your time" Later that day I could go home, Travis and Taylor disappeared, but according to my parents, they were never here.

"Now the last topic," the presenter says, "Taylor Swift will sing and release a new song! Taylor, tell me, how did you think of this subject?" The whole audience cheers, and Taylor reacts "To me it was revealed that someone knew of the terrorist attack at my show, and I decided to make a song for it because she disappeared into the mist. Creepy if you ask me." Taylor walks to the stage and starts playing the intro of Carolina. I look at the TV in shock, a song, about me, she doesn't even know it's me. I decide to go onto TikTok and start to chase my dreams. But can I still after those men ruined my reputation before I even had one?
