"His world felt so tethered to hers, even though she knew she was long gone from it. As she paced the room doing vocal warm ups, she paused in front of a locker. The nameplate that adorned the door, Travis Kelce, mocked her in its permanence. Everything about this place felt so final, like none of it would ever change. And there she was ready to walk onto a stage and pretend she didn't notice. She was going to pretend she wasn't haunted by the very thing and the person she'd tried so hard to outrun." Tayvis, but it's exes to lovers.
