No amount of denying could prevent what was about to happen next, though. August made a mistake too. She swore to herself that she would control her feelings, but the moment she saw him in that state, she couldn't hold back. And while it had lasted her temporary happiness, nothing could numb the pain of when it finally hit her. He'll never love her the way she did, she was merely his distraction, and he'll see sense and go back to the first girl, and she'll njust be one more discarded thing in his life. A fanfiction based on Album of the Year, 2020.

- book one of wisteria hearts (six books are published) - two souls don't just find each other by pure, sweet, simple accident. it's serendipity. Taylor Swift, some would say, was one of the biggest celebrities out there. It's funny, given this fact, how someone that has spent their entire life from sixteen, living under a spotlight, can be in an abusive relationship for three years, and no one notices. Not a single person. They don't see the hands that wander her body in the middle of the eternal night or the bruises on her cheeks from a blow that she didn't deserve. Not a single person saw her pain. Until she met Joe Alwyn, on a Wednesday, at a cafe. The whirlwind of memories from the Met Gala, when she'd first laid eyes on him, whilst in the arms of another. Those ocean eyes that had followed her around the dance floor, as he stood to the side. She didn't know that Joe remembered that moment when they'd first met. But he'd been watching - he couldn't stop watching. She was mesmerising. And she'd had that sparkle in her eyes, the first thing he'd noticed about her. But when he saw her in that cafe, that sparkle was nowhere to be seen, and a bruise had taken its place. They didn't know, then, that the Poets had written their love in the stars. - a Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn au - This is set some time after reputation, after the Met Gala. A lot of songs mentioned may not be in the correct order (for example, writing a rough version of cardigan before lover has even been written) but is intentional. - trigger warning for: eating disorders, sexual assault, self harm, abusive relationships -
