A/N based on a video I saw where she properly flipped when doing her dive (in all seriousness tho I hope she's okay 😭😭 it looked like she landed on her head that must have been painful)

Taylor was just finishing up the notes of the MOST GUT WRENCHING mashups ever, this is me trying x daylight. She played the last key then stood up, waving at the crowd. She had a new dress and she loved it, the way the colours flowed when she twirled.

She walked towards the hole in the stage, feeling the rain on her face. Oh, how she loved rain shows. She stood in front of the opening to the stage, waving to the fans once more. Then the light turned green and the voice in her ear was telling her to jump. She braced herself, lifting her arms above her head elegantly. She bent her legs then leapt, aiming to land on her stomach.

However, just as her heels were about to leave the stage she slipped, sending her head first into the stage. She flipped over, landing on the mat awkwardly on her neck. She had somehow managed to whack her head, badly, and it was throbbing as she crawled off.

"Are you okay?" One of her team members called out to her. She nodded, rubbing her head. The pain wasn't going away, if anything it was increasing.

She rushed over to the other side of the stage where some other members of her team were. They helped untie her dress, handing her the midnights bodysuit.
"Hey" Tree rushed over just as she was pulling on her boots. "I heard you fell weirdly, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine" Taylor smiled, but it didn't quite reach her eyes. Her head was throbbing and her neck aching. The pain was just increasing, and it made her feel slightly sick.
"Are you sure?" Tree asked, helping her put her lavender haze jacket on.
"Yep!" Taylor tried to sound as enthusiastic as possible, but Tree looked at her doubtfully. 
"Okay well, make sure you tell someone if you don't feel good" Taylor nodded, rushing over to the part of the stage where she was meant to go up.

The first beats of lavender haze started and she walked up the steps, the bright lights intensifying the pain in her head.

Lavender haze went by pretty much fine, apart from her head hurting. However, about halfway through anti hero Taylor could feel her vision blurring a bit. Just in and out, she could still dance and sing. Her ears started to go weird too, everything sounding like she was underwater.

Midnight rain started and she did not feel good. Her head throbbing, even worse than before- it made it impossible to think. Her vision was blurring, she could barely see where she was going, and she was starting to feel very faint. Her moves were slow and sluggish as she stumbled along the stage.

She was on the risen part, ready to fall into the dancers arms below. She looked down, seeing their faces looking up at her. Some of them looked concerned; they had caught in that she wasn't feeling well. The beat dropped and she turned, falling down. As soon as her body hit their arms and passed out, everything overtaking her.

Raphael and Jan quickly spun her round, setting her on the ground. Still blocked by the umbrellas Jan reached down, feeling her pulse and her breath against his hand.
"She's breathing" he nodded.

When the umbrellas didn't open up at the beat drop, Taylor's team could tell something was wrong. The music and lights were cut, and Taylor was carried backstage. Jan set her on one of the sofas as Tree rushed over.

"Oh my god! What happened?!" She cried.
"She fainted, she's breathing though" Raphael told the redhead, his voice laced with worry.

Just then Taylor's eyelids fluttered and she squinted them open. She sat up, reaching for her head.
"No, no, lie back down" Tree instructed her, gently pushing her down.
"What happened?" She asked, her voice weak.
"You passed out. You told me you were fine, Taylor" Trees voice was stern, but still filled with worry.
"I'm sorry, I just didn't want to let everyone down" Trees expression immediately softened.
"I was worried, don't lie to me again, okay?" She reached down and wrapped her arms around Taylor, holding her close.

"Do you think we need to take you to the hospital? How are you feeling?" Tree asked, pulling away.
"I'm feeling better, no hospital" Taylor smiled up at her and she nodded.
"Okay, but straight back to the hotel and rest" Taylor nodded reluctantly as Tree helped her up.

They got into the car out the back and strapped themselves in. Tree grabbed her phone once they had set off, turning it on. Her screen flooded with calls and messages, most from Travis.
"Someone's worried about you" Tree slightly smirked, navigating to Travis's contact and calling him back. He picked up on the first ring, his worried face filling she screen.
"Where is she? Is she okay?" He asked anxiously.

Tree handed the phone to Taylor and she waved, smiling.
"Hi" she greeted. His face immediately relaxed when he saw her there, but he was still very worried.
"What happened? Are you okay? I was watching the livestream and you looked not well, then the show stopped?"
"Yeah, I'm okay now. I hit my head then I kinda passed out during midnight rain" she smiled sheepishly, looking towards Tree.
"Yeah, she lied to me and insisted that she was fine and look at where we ended up" Tree butted in, pretending to be angry. She wasn't really, just thankful Taylor was okay.

"Taylor" Travis sighed.
"I just didn't want to let anyone down! I'm sorry" Taylor apologised, trying to defend herself.
"You know you come first baby. Always"  Travis said, and Taylor nodded. "Well, you're okay now?"
"Yeah, we're going back to the hotel" Taylor nodded.
"Okay baby. I've got to go now, but I'll call you later? Or tomorrow?"
"Yeah, I love you" Taylor smiled.
"I love you too"
