Taylor's Revenge (Taylor Swift/1D FF)

Chapter 19

~Louis’s P.O.V~

Here I am on a plane headed back to Nashville. My lovely girlfriend is currently asleep with her head on my shoulder. I still can’t believe that a guy like me could have a genuine sweetheart like Taylor.

Her eyes were closed but I could clearly imagine her electrifying blue eyes. Her hair was perfect, straight or not. I could hear the faint blasting of music from one of her earphone buds. Why Don’t You Love Me? by Hot Chelle Rae maybe?

Behind me I could hear Liam and Harry, both of them were softly snoring in sync which was kind of weird. Behind them sat Zayn and Niall. Just like the others, I bet they’re asleep.

I took this peaceful moment to study where I am now, to see how I got here somehow. Farther than my young eyes could see; farther than who I once thought I’d be.—

Okay, maybe I’m getting a little bit too poetic.

Anyway, I think everything’s finally alright for once.

I dragged my gaze back to the beautiful woman beside me and watched her sleep. After a few moments, I guess I was starting to get a little freaky. “It’s rude to stare you know.” I heard her say, not even opening her eyes to confirm her suspicion.

“How’d you know I was staring?” I asked her, still watching for any signs of her eyes opening. “I’m Taylor Swift. I have my own ways of finding out.” She said finally opening her eyes to meet my gaze. “Hi!” she greeted as if I haven’t just had a conversation with her earlier. “Hey!” I greeted back, smiling down at her.

“So, how come you’re the only one who hasn’t slept yet?” she asked, sitting up straight. “I don’t know. I guess I’m just not tired.” I replied, suddenly realizing that I haven’t slept at all since I hopped on the plane.

For a few moments, we subsided into a silence. It wasn’t really an awkward one; I guess we were just enjoying each other’s presence. A few minutes later, she broke it. “Don’t you think our relationship’s a little bit cliché?” she asked, making me frown a little. “Are you saying we’re unoriginal?” I asked, making her sit up straight defensively. “Of course not!” she answered, “you’re about as original as one could be.”

“Then care to explain what you meant?” I asked, feeling her relax a bit. “It’s just...” she started, “this whole ‘guy-gets-in-a-relationship-with-best-friend’s-ex’ seems so much like a part of a movie.” She said, leaning closer to me.

I started understanding what she meant. I got myself to sit up and face her as I held both of her hands. “Listen Tay, I know we’re only starting out and all; but if you’re worried about this being too good to be true, I can’t blame you. I can’t help but think that too. But just so you know I’m gonna tell you this:

Taylor Alison Swift, you are by far the most amazing, original, and astounding person I have ever met. You are just not some part of a movie, a book, or whatever it seems like to you. I can understand if you’re scared because I also know how it feels like for things to fall apart. But remember, as long as we’re together and as long as we love each other, you don’t have to worry.”

I watch as her serious expression was suddenly replaced by a grin, “Louis Tomlinson, that was by far the sweetest and cheesiest line someone has ever said to me; but you know what? I totally agree with you on that one.”

I leaned back again as I put my arms around her.

“As long as we’re together?”

“As long as we’re together.”

(Oops, I guess I finished the chapter earlier than I thought I would.

Anyway, I know it's short but enjoy!
