again sorry, no Travis, but I just wanted to do a little bit more from the last oneshot. (also aware that isn't the lyric but I switched it up a bit for the sake of this)

Taylor's pov

The past year had been a whirlwind of emotions, becoming a mom was the most amazing yet exhausting challenge that I had ever embarked on my whole entire life, but I'd do it a thousand times over for my daughter. My sweet, innocent, 11 month old daughter. From the day Joe left, he had never returned, leaving us alone, but selfishly I sort off loved it, I loved having Colette all to myself, and even though my heart was shattered from losing him, and him not even bothering to say goodbye, my baby made it so much more manageable. It still stung, and sometimes, when she was in bed, I'd cry, I'd cry about what we could've had, what Joe was missing out on, how unfair it was that he left me to deal with the newborn stage – the most emotionally draining stage.

" coco, come to mommy " i cooed, Colette on her hands and knees in the door way of the kitchen. Recently, she started crawling, and she was unstoppable, always wanting to move around and get into spaces where she wasn't allowed. I watched as she smiled at the sound of her name, her hand padding forward, her legs following behind until she reached me, going to sit as her arms extended in my direction.

" mama " she babbled as I scooped her, peppering kisses all over her chubby cheeks, an eruption of giggles escaping her.

" hi baby " I grinned. " you're a whole one year old tomorrow, can you believe it? Mommy can't " I told her, and even though I was sure she probably didn't understand, her blue eyes blinked at me curiously, like she had interest in what I was saying. " I wonder what cake you would like? You haven't tried any before, huh? " I was slightly strict on Colette's sugar intake, just because I was worried about what damage it could do to her little body, she also still breastfed at least 3 times a day, so she wasn't much of a snacker.

" mama " Colette sighed, cuddling into my chest, her hand placed in the middle of my chest, a form of comfort she does when she's tired.

" oh is my sweet baby sleepy? " I plant a kiss on her forehead, swaying gently to relax her.

It was right around her afternoon nap time, she hadn't been sleeping all that great in her crib recently and 9 times out of 10 she ended up in my bed. I knew it was a habit I probably shouldn't enforce but after our pretty sleepless newborn stage, I'd do anything to have a full nights sleep. I knew she was tired though, when she started pulling away at my shirt, and I couldn't help but giggle at her cuteness, sitting myself down on the couch and letting her nurse herself to sleep. I transferred her to her crib not long after, knowing I had stuff to get done and that Tree was on her way round to discuss some things.

" so the album is coming out on August 23rd and remind me when the next single is coming " Tree asked, a mug of steaming coffee in her hand that I had just made .

" hopefully the 16th, I want it to be a week before the album, as it's obviously the title track " I explain, enjoying my own cup of tea.

" okay cool and in terms of promo, we've got a lot lined up " she tells me and I nod. Currently, Colette and I were still living in London, I'd stayed here, in the hopes Joe would maybe change his mind, but we often travelled between places, and at the end of august we were travelling to New York as I had some bits to do there.
