"Baby, are you ready to go?" Taylor questions as she walks through the house towards the kitchen where she had last seen her girlfriend a mere ten minutes ago. "Karlie?" Taylor once again questions as she steps into the kitchen but not seeing her six foot girlfriend anywhere. Taylor glances all around the place but all she can see is the shiny surface of the marble bench and appliances gleaming back at her. "Karlie, come on we have to go. I've got a studio session for the tour starting in an hour, I don't want to be late." Taylor turns her head and looks everywhere but a sudden thump from upstairs means that she now knows exactly where her girlfriend is in the apartment. Walking gently towards the stairs that begin in the foyer of the large apartment that Taylor had brought upon Karlie begging her not to move to London and she's comfortable with the knowledge that at least Karlie hadn't made a run for it after breakfast while Taylor was getting ready. "Karlie?" the songstress tries again walking along the hallway, the crashing around halts as Karlie calls out so Taylor knows where to find her. "Yeah babe," Taylor visibly relaxes although no one can actually see her from her spot in the hallway. "What are you doing?" Taylor finds herself asking her girlfriend of almost four months as she spots most of their joint clothing spread across the vast bedroom and hanging off the closet doors, Meredith is watching from the bathroom door with an unhappy look on her cat face having obviously been woken from her catnap as the clothes began to fly. A nervous looking Karlie pokes her head out of the door to the large closet with only her bra and underwear on, "I don't have anything to wear, I don't want to dress like a model, I want to be Karlie." Karlie expresses to Taylor who nods but says nothing. Karlie watches and then goes back to hunting for something to wear.

It takes almost ten minutes before a call of distress comes from inside the closet. "Tay..."a whiny voice calls, "please come and help me..." Taylor drags herself from the bed where she had been re-folding clothes and putting them into piles so she could put them away properly later on after her session at the studio. "What do you want to wear babe? Comfortable for your first day or stuffy?" Karlie looks at her wide eyed and then settles for comfort so Taylor nods and starts to move around the clothing that is left in her closet and reaching the draw that Karlie keeps her own jeans in for when she needs them Taylor quickly pulls out a pair of acid wash jeans that are the normal ones Karlie would wear but Taylor grabs them by the leg and rolls up the leg cuffs before handing them to her girlfriend, Karlie takes them gratefully and puts them on, quickly zipping the fly and buttoning the top button as Taylor busies herself with finding her nervous girl a shirt to go with it and trying to be quick otherwise they will both be late. Karlie starts to clean up the mess that she had made but doesn't get far when Taylor's voice makes her turn around. "Here babe, put this on." Karlie accepts the white button down shirt that she has only worn a few times, "are you sure?" a nervous Karlie questions but Taylor only looks at her and Karlie quickly puts the shirt on and then once it's done up she breathes a sigh and says, "it's perfect." Taylor walks over to her and takes her hands,
"It's okay to be nervous about something new Karlie, but next time before you destroy my bedroom with all the clothing in the closet please just talk to me. I'll always listen and you know it." Karlie giggles as she looks around, "I did make a mess, didn't I?" Taylor raises her eyebrows and says, "Just a little. It's okay, it'll still be here later for you to clean. Now let's get going." Karlie finds herself nodding and following Taylor downstairs and as Taylor grabs her studio session notes and handbag Karlie grabs a small shoulder bag that has her coding books in it and her handbag. As they go to leave Taylor hands Karlie a brown paper bag, "what is this?" "Your lunch," Taylor states as Karlie's eyes widen and she quickly looks inside and grins, and to say thank-you she quickly leans over and kisses Taylor's lips quickly making the songstress blush as they both leave and hop into the waiting SUV.

A block from New York University or NYU Karlie begins to shake her legs from nerves but a quick hand on her leg from Taylor has her calming right down. "Relax, you're going to have a great day and meet a lot of new people. It's going to be exciting and your social butterfly nature is going to love it. Late tonight you will come home to my apartment and I'll cook your favourite pasta and you will tell me all about it." Taylor states as Karlie nods and listens to every word which makes her feel calmer and calmer. It doesn't take much for Taylor to then get Karlie out, but the moment Karlie's feet hit the pavement she smiles knowing that she's going to have fun, "hey Kloss," the words from Taylor's lips has Karlie turning to see her face.
"Yes,"
"Smile!" Karlie smiles wide and crosses her fingers making Taylor laugh as she blows her a kiss and as Karlie disappears into the large university intent on filling her brain with all the information she can manage, Taylor and the SUV disappear into the middle of New York City traffic where Taylor can fill her brain with stage ideas and music drops for the new tour.
