DIFFERENT | TAYLOR SWIFT

-5-

Taylors POV.

When I get back to my apartment, I check my laptop. Sure enough, I had an email from Elle.

I sit on the couch in my cozy living room, and I read the email. I looked through it quickly, before properly reading it. I saw words like, "thirteen" "quiet" "paralysis" "cat" etc etc. I scroll back up the page. As I'm about to start reading, my phone rings.

(T: Tay A: Andrea)

T: hey mom, what's up?
A: hi honey, do you mind if your father and I drop in?
T: no, not at all. I was just about to read the information about the girl.
A: wait for your father and I, we would like to read it as well, we should be there in ten minutes.
T: okay, mom. See you soon!
A: you too.

I hang up my phone and close my laptop screen. I scroll through tumblr while waiting.

I hear my door open and look over the couch to see who comes in. I know my security wouldn't let anyone dangerous in but I still get worried sometimes.

I smile and get up from the couch when I see my mom and dad walking in.

"Hey guys!" I embrace my mother and father in hugs, "hi Taylor!" My mom, Andrea replies. "Hey taytay!" My dad says. We walk into the kitchen and I get my laptop from the lounge. "uh, do you guys want a drink or something?" I ask, placing my laptop down. "I will make myself a coffee." Mom says, going to the cupboard. "No, I can it's fine. Sit down." My mom laughs and sits down on a stool by the bench. "Dad? Do you want a coffee?" I ask, getting out a cup. "No thankyou, Taylor." He replies, sitting down next to mom.

I turn the kettle on and open my laptop.

"Okay, so." I started, opening the email.

"I thought uh, so having a young child is harder than having an older one, right?" They nodded. "Yeah, so I um, thought getting an older one like around twelve would be easier, since I don't think I will be having a child if I don't have a love." (A/n this is after 1989 but she hasn't met calvino yet.) "and I'm almost 26, I would like a child."

"I think this is a good idea, darling." My mother says, smiling. "Me too, I like how you're thinking." My dad adds.

"Thanks guys! Okay so this is her information, I haven't read it, don't worry." I smile and start reading.

I read the email out loud so my parents could hear.

What's sleep paralysis? She can't move while she's asleep?

"Do you guys know what sleep paralysis is?" I ask, frowning. "No, never heard of it." My dad frowns aswell. "Look it up, it sounds bad." My mom suggests. "Okay, let's see."
