You Belong To Me (Kaylor)

36.

Taylor's surprise Italy trip was everything she could have ever wanted and more. Having just arrived back to NYC, the girls' mood was a somber one, as they both knew that Taylor would be going to her Rhode Island home to begin working on her next album. Ever since arriving home, the two have tried to keep some distance, thinking that it will help when it comes to having to say goodbye for a while.

Karlie arrived at her apartment to get settled back in. She'll be having several shoots in NYC over the next week and wanted to get some laundry done.

Taylor decided to do the same and begin packing for her getaway as well. While walking around aimlessly in her apartment her phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hey honey, how was your trip?"

"It was amazing mom. The best trip I could ever ask for."

"So, what are you up to now?" Andrea asked.

"*sigh* I'm packing for Rhode Island. I'm planning on being there for a few months to work on my album."

"What's wrong honey?"

"I'm just gonna miss Karlie, that's all. We've been together pretty much every day for the last several months."

"Well, this might not be a bad thing. Space can be good. It makes for a healthy relationship. You're right, you have been together a lot, take a break."

"TAKE A BREAK?" Taylor shouted. I don't want to TAKE A BREAK.

"Taylor, calm down. I know you love Karlie and hate being away from her. All I'm saying is that taking a break will make you miss her even more. And when you two get together again, it'll feel brand new."

Taylor sighed, "Maybe you're right. It just sucks."

"When are you planning on leaving?"

"Tomorrow morning. Karlie has a shoot in the morning, so I think it would be best to leave while she's there."

"Ok. Well, I'm gonna let you go and if you need to talk just give me a call. Your dad and I are planning on coming up soon to visit, so I'll keep you posted. I love you precious. And don't worry, everything will be fine. I love you."

"I love you too, mom. Bye."

Taylor sat on her couch, not wanting to move but she knows she has things to do. She heads upstairs where she begins to pack, not needing too much since her RI home is already full of clothes but she still wants a few things. She gets lost in her thoughts wondering what Karlie is doing right now.

Fifteen minutes away, Karlie stares into space thinking about Taylor. She's going to miss her so much and is trying to keep it together but it's just hard. They had decided to end their time together  in the car. Thinking it would be best to just stay apart that night and go their separate ways come morning. Both of them thought it would be for the best, but Karlie is having second thoughts about it. She rather be with her girlfriend now.

A few hours pass and it's now 10 pm. Karlie has to be at work for 7. She knows Taylor will be leaving at some point in the morning. She picks up her cell, hoping there's a missed call or a text from the singer but she knows there won't be since her phone has been with her the whole time.

"FUCK THIS. I'm going to Taylor's."

There was a knock on the door. Taylor looked at the clock and saw it was 10:30pm. She knew it had to be someone she knew since her security allowed them to get to her door.

She makes her way down the stairs and opens the door. As soon as it opens, she's sees her amazing girlfriend standing there with an overnight bag.

"What are you doing here?" Taylor asked, not really caring because she missed her so much.
