They finally landed in Nashville. The plan was for the girls to grab some things at the apartment and then fly to St. Louis with Tracy. However, once they touched ground, Karlie refused to get back on the plane.

When they got to the apartment, Karlie sat on the couch and hugged her knees to her chest. "I'm sorry, Taylor. I just can't get back on the plane right now. Maybe tomorrow."

Taylor came over and sat beside her wife, leaning her head on her shoulder.

"Baby, it's ok. Don't apologize."

"But it's not ok, Taylor. What am I gonna do? How am I gonna work if I'm too afraid to fly? I just want to go home. To our home."

"Kar, we'll figure it out. We can still go to St. Louis without flying. It's only a four hour drive. We can hire a driver or drive ourselves. It's up to you baby."

"Yeah, but Tay, what about everything else?"

"Karlie listen to me. First off, I highly doubt you or Lily will be going back to work anytime soon after your ordeal. Secondly, when you do return, maybe they can have you do shoots just in NY or LA for a while, without traveling overseas. If your agency agrees to that, then we'll buy an RV and drive to whichever city from St. Louis. It'll be our own little road trip."

The model smiled at her wife as she wrapped her arms around her. "I love you Taylor. Thank you."

Since the girls weren't going to be leaving Nashville at the moment, Tracy had taken a commercial flight back to St. Louis.

Due to the jet lag, Karlie just wanted to rest for the day. The two laid in bed as Taylor stroked her wife's hair, smiling sweetly as she watched Karlie's eyes begin to close. Not much longer, Taylor too fell asleep.

"TAYLOR!!"  Karlie screamed as she sat up in bed, drenched in sweat.

"Karlie, it's ok. It was just a nightmare. You're fine baby."

The model strained to catch her breath as Taylor pulled her down to rest on her chest.

"Just breathe nice and slow. Listen to my heartbeat and just relax." Taylor said as she kissed the top of her wife's head.

"Taylor, can I ask you something?"

"Of course you can."

"What made you decide to come to Italy? I mean, you wouldn't talk to me all week, no matter what I tried. So, what made you change your mind?"

"Emma."

"Emma?"

"She called me to tell me of the conference call you had with her and Abigail."

"Oh."

Look at me Kar. The model sat up and turned her body to face Taylor. The singer grabbed her wife's hands as she said, "I'm glad she called me and told me of the conversation. She made me realize that you were only trying to protect me. She told me of all the things you spoke of the night the two of you slept in the treehouse."

Karlie's cheeks began to blush as she looked down and grinned.

"I was upset with you for not wanting me to confront Abigail by myself because all my life people had been telling me what to do. For the first time, in our relationship, you were doing the same thing. The angrier you got, the more scared I became because I never heard you yell at me like you did. It was like, you were a different person and I was afraid."

"Afraid of me?" Karlie said hardly audible.

Taylor looked down as tears began to form. She slowly nodded her head as she looked back up. "Yeah. I was afraid of you."

As tears began to roll down Karlie's cheeks, she said, "That was never my intention and I'm sorry that I scared you. I was so angry that the people who were the closest to us, you especially, were trying to ruin our marriage. I don't think I was thinking clearly, in fact, I know I wasn't. I was just so angry and filled with rage. You've been nothing but an awesome friend to them and I hated the fact that they could even think it was ok to hurt you like that. I was so fixated on protecting you, that I made you feel like you needed protection from me."

Karlie pulled Taylor close, lifting her legs so that they were wrapped around her waist. Karlie placed her hand on the side of Taylor's neck as she felt her skin with her thumb.

"I will never hurt you and I'm sorry."

Taylor wrapped her arms around her wife's neck as she pulled her in for a kiss. "I love you Karlie." Taylor whispered against her wife's lips before Karlie ran her fingers through Taylor's hair as she leaned the singer back and gently laid to the side of her, deepening the kiss.

The model began to lift Taylor's shirt, as she rubbed her stomach.

"You're showing so much more these days."

"Hmmmm, not sure if it's the baby or the candy/cookie/nut basket you left me this week."

Karlie smiled as she said, "You didn't think it was cute? I was trying so hard to get you back."

"It was cute baby. I really loved all the cute little corny phrases you used on the kisses and nuts. It reminded me of myself."

Karlie began to laugh. "That was the point babe. You know how much I love your jokes."

"Alright Karlie, I know you think I'm a cornball. No need to rub it in."

"But you're my cornball."

"And I'll be your cornball, and only your cornball, forever and ever."

The two laid together for a short time before Karlie got up to make something to eat.

As she rummaged through the fridge, Taylor came in and sat on the island just watching her wife bend over and scan every shelf of the fridge over and over as if it was going to miraculously change before her eyes.

Karlie pulled out a can of whipped cream.

"What did you get this for?" The model asked as she squirted some in her mouth.

"I bought a pie two days ago."

"Mmmm, pie. Where is it?" Karlie inquired as she began to look through all the shelves again. When she didn't hear a response, she turned to look at her wife who was whistling while swinging her legs.

"What? I was hungry."

Karlie began to laugh as she walked over to Taylor and stood between her legs. She squirted another mouthful of the whipped cream as Taylor asked her if that's what she'd be eating for dinner.

"Maybe." Karlie replied with a seductive look in her eye.

She slowly began to remove her wife's clothes until she was completely naked and laying on the island. She then made a whipped cream bikini before she slowly licked it off.

"Am I tasty?" Taylor asked with a smile.

"Very." The model replied as she squirted some cream in her wife's mouth and then kissed her lips.
"I think we need to finish this upstairs."

Karlie removed her wife and carried her to the bedroom, where they made love for the remainder of the night.
