Taylor Swift Imagines Book Three (gxg)

fall apart (requested)

Taylor sat helplessly next to you on the couch. You came home seeming really off today. Something is obviously bothering you but you won't tell her what it is.

"Darling, please talk to me." She whispered and rubbed your back. "You can tell me. Whatever it is I won't judge you." You seemed so tense. Taylor felt just how tight your muscles seemed. "You gotta relax a little, babydoll." She planted a soft kiss to your shoulder.

"If I relax now I'm gonna fall apart." Taylor nodded and rested her chin on your shoulder. "I'll be here to hold you when you do." She promised and reached for your soft hands to take one in her own. She was trying her best to bring you as much comfort as you needed. "This is how it's always been for me, Tay. It's the only way I know how to live. I don't know how to open up very well. People always seem to leave after I do."

Taylor moved you between her legs and wrapped her arms around your stomach. "I'm not going anywhere. I'm here to hold you, here to catch you when you fall or when you break. I'm here. I'll help you find your way back every time." You sniffled, the beginning of you starting to break. "Have I ever left you when you need me the most? No. Not once. And I never will. You can fall to pieces and I will help you put them all back together. Every time."

And that's when you lost it. The stress, the anxiety, and the fear that's been plaguing you and making you bottle up everything you've felt for so long, finally came out. And Taylor never let you go. Not once did her grip loosen. Not once did she let you feel as though she was secretly judging you, or that after you finished letting go she was leaving like everyone else.

She instead planted kisses anywhere she could on your skin. She whispered sweet words of encouragement, things she knows you need to hear. She reminded you that falling apart was okay and that you weren't broken, just hurting. She reminded you that she loved you, and not just with the words she said but with the way she held you and kissed your skin.

It took you a while to get it all out and to calm back down. But Taylor was still right there with you when you came back around. "I've got you. I've always got you. You don't ever have to keep anything from me, I'm always here for you. And you're safe with me. Your deepest and darkest secrets will always be safe with me. Just let me hold you, okay?" You nodded your head and let her wipe away your tears because honestly, that's all you needed.

"I love you so much, my strong and brave girl. I always will, no matter what happens." She promised as she gently turned your cheek and planted a few soft and sweet kisses to your lips. She never once let you go. She's not like the rest. She's here to stay.
