(HALEY'S POV)
Haley,
I'm sorry, but I'm going to be gone for quite a while today. Last minute meeting. Lucky for you, you have the whole house to yourself. I'll be home around 4. When I come back, I'll have some stuff for you :) Just make sure to pack your bags for Paris and London. And it's gonna be cold. So pack warm and cozy things. Love you!

Thank God. I can relax in peace. I head downstairs and grab some Pop Tarts. Olivia is on the kitchen counter, sniffing through everything. I pick her up and gently throw her. She lands on her feet and scurries away. Meredith is licking away the last bits of cat food crumbs in her bowl, so I infer Taylor must have left not too long ago.
I wonder what my surprise is.
The day slowly passes by with me alternating between drawing, writing, and watching Netflix. For lunch I make some soup.
Eventually, I look at the clock again and it reads 3:46. SHIT. I have even gotten dressed yet, let alone packing. Forget packing. I'll do that tonight.
Just as I finish throwing on the first thing out of my closet, Taylor comes back. I step downstairs to see my surprise.
"Hey Haley!" She greets. "How was your day?"
"Pretty nice," I shrug.
"Great," she smiles. "I have something for you. Well, a few somethings."
"A few?"
"Yeah! Come look!"
She sets down a few bags onto the dining room table. The first thing she pulls out is a gold iPhone 6s. I was expecting this at one point or another. She hands me some phone cases. One green as purple otter box, one shaped like a teddy bear, a Taylor Swift one, and one that says "I love you but I love pizza more." Relatable.
"Thanks, Taylor!" I exclaim.
She giggles. "Now, I've already gotten a lot of stuff set up on here, like your Apple ID as well as some important contacts." She sets that aside and pulls out something bigger. A MacBook Pro.
"Wow."
"Everything is pretty much set up on here, too," she continues.
"Thank you so much!" I exclaim. Taylor pulls me into a hug. It's a nice hug, I suppose.
She also pulls out a mint green Instax Polaroid with a few boxes of film. She doesn't really explain, but just winks at me.
"And," she says, her smile still plastered on her face, "while at my meeting, Taylor Nation gave me...well, you, a whole load of merch.
"Merch?"
"Yep. Some of the best merchandise on my website. Even ones that haven't come out yet!"
She pulls out some shirts that all have pictures of her or references on them. I've seen better merch from other artists. Besides, I'd never want to go out in public with that on because...you know. I also find bracelets, sunglasses, and some notebooks. A
