Life with the WAGS

A Million Reasons

A week later, I get a call to head to Nashville for a Monday Night Football game. I chat with Nicole.

Text Conversation:

Nicole, ESPN is sending me to Nashville for a football game Chiefs and Titans!

That's great! What's wrong?

I have no idea how to break some news to Travis.

You're going to cover the game and then break some news to the tight end! Are you okay?

Not really. ESPN has me so busy that anytime I plan something it's always after work!

Do you want to break up with Travis?

I'm not going to be a WAG if that happens but it's for the best :(

After the chat ends, I listen to a song.

You're giving me a million reasons to let you go
You're giving me a million reasons to quit the show
You're givin' me a million reasons
Give me a million reasons
Givin' me a million reasons
About a million reasons
If I had a highway, I would run for the hills
If you could find a dry way, I'd forever be still
But you're giving me a million reasons
Give me a million reasons
Givin' me a million reasons
About a million reasons
I bow down to pray
I try to make the worse seem better
Lord, show me the way
To cut through all his worn out leather
I've got a hundred million reasons to walk away
But baby, I just need one good one to stay
Head stuck in a cycle, I look off and I stare
It's like that I've stopped breathing, but completely aware
'Cause you've given me a million reasons
Give me a million reasons
Giving me a million reasons
About a million reasons
And if you say something that you might even mean
It's hard to even fathom which parts I should believe
'Cause you've given me a million reasons
Give me a million reasons
Givin' me a million reasons
About a million reasons
I bow down to pray
I try to make the worse seem better
Lord, show me the way
To cut through all his worn out leather
I've got a hundred million reasons to walk away
But baby, I just need one good one to stay
Aye-eee-ayeee-ay-ayyee
Oh, baby, I'm bleedin', bleedin'
Aye-eee-ayeee-ay-ayyee
Can't you give me what I'm needin', needin'
Every heartbreak makes it hard to keep the faith
But baby, I just need one good one
Good one, good one, good one, good one, good one
When I bow down to pray
I try to make the worse seem better
Lord, show me the way
To cut through all his worn out leather
I've got a hundred million reasons to walk away
But baby, I just need one good one, good one
Tell me that you'll be the good one, good one
Baby, I just need one good one to stay aye eee ayeee

I enter the ESPN Studio and I sit down at my desk thinking about Nashville! I'm going crazy and I group text Larry and Nicole.

Group Chat:

Guys, I came to a really tough and hard choice about Travis!

Vanessa, you did?

Yeah! I'm going to breakup with Travis!

Really?

Really!

Are you going to tell him after the game?

Maybe! If I do it before the game would it be a bad idea?

It wouldn't be a bad idea but wait until your <3 knows! I'm so sorry you're going through this! If I were you I would wait!

Nicole and Larry, I don't want to wait to break the news to Travis!

I know you don't want to mess anything up but telling Travis you want to end things with him is for the best! Your <3 will be broken and you'll be sad but you have to look at this with a strong mind!

I know it's going to be tough.

As my group chat ends, I head to the ESPN Studio to type my injury report
