Wildest Dreams (Tayvin)

Damage Control

DISCLAIMER: I've been really busy recently so I don't know all the intricacies of this recent Kanye saga or the timeline....so this is my brain filling in blanks/making stuff up etc as usual....

ADAM POV

We had a busy few weeks coming up so I was getting as much done in the studio as possible. This weekend we were attending the Grammys, and the associated pre and after parties involved with all that, then the following weekend was Taylor's friend Britt's wedding, where Taylor was going to be the maid of honour, and then we were flying to London for the Elle style awards and the BRIT awards. That would mark a year since we had actually met at the style awards the year before.

It was lucky that I had a studio in my house, as it meant I barely had to leave for anything. I even had a gym here! Since the slight police incident that happened at Taylor's house she'd been staying here most of the time, going off to see friends and rehearse for her epic Grammy performance during the day but coming home at night.

Today Taylor and Selena were hanging out in the house while I was in the studio working. I was in my zone, ignoring everything in the outside world. I had even turned my phone onto mute so I wouldn't be distracted by emails, messages, or calls...although I couldn't hear anything anyways when I had my headphones on.

Suddenly I felt someone grab my shoulder and shake it slightly. It was an unfamiliar hand and it made me spin around, ready to fight whoever it was.... But it was just Selena.

"Shit Selena! You scared me!" I said, laughing slightly as I slid off my headphones. I then looked at her face and panic took over, "Oh my god, what's happened?"

She looked completely freaked out and was breathing really quickly as if she had sprinted down here.

"It's Taylor.... she's having a panic attack.... Or more just sitting way too still and shutting me out completely... I've tried everything that usually helps.... but this is different." Selena said motioning for me to follow her, which I immediately did.

We rushed back upstairs and into the living room where, as Selena had said, Taylor was sitting on the sofa just staring straight ahead breathing really quickly. She didn't even acknowledge Olivia who was on her lap and didn't turn towards us when we came in.

"Babe.... What's going on?" I asked gently, sitting down next to her and holding her hand with both of mine, rubbing gently circles on the top of it, not wanting to scare her too much. IT was like she was in a trance. After a few seconds she suddenly pulled her hand away and bent her knees up to wrap her arms around them, burying her face in her legs and moving as far away from me as possible.

I looked at Selena for some input.

"It started after all the Kanye Yezzy show stuff came out...." She said, making me look at her with obvious confusion on my face.

"Um... sorry, what stuff?" I asked her quietly, her eyes widened and she motioned me out of the living room into the hall.

I took one more look at Taylor, noticing her breathing was still ragged but she seemed okay enough.

Selena pulled the door to and started speaking in hushed tones.

"You know that song that Kanye asked Taylor to promote on Twitter? The one that she didn't want to promote and warned him about?" She started, I nodded my head, still confused, "Well, he played it at his show and it wasn't just joking about him making Taylor famous or whatever.... The line was something like 'I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex, I made that bitch famous."

My eyes widened in shock. I knew that Kanye had written a song that had pretty misogynistic connotations, but I didn't know what the lyric actually was, and I am sure Taylor didn't either.
