Taylor and Travis

Plans with Arrowhead

August was close to a end and luckily no words had gotten around about me and Travis. We had been talking more every day whenever we had a chance before and after his games. But never once had he called me or I called him.

I was finally on break and got to spend time on my music, friends, and myself. I spent lots of time with my parents and singing to myself.

I was nearing the end of my shower, humming 1989 vault songs when I hear my phone go off. I groan and try to look over at my phone on my counter

"Damnit" I grunt, turning off the water and getting myself a white towel. Hair dripping down my back and steam fogging the mirror. I reach for my phone and smile when I see it was Travis.

Travis: Hey, how are you doing?

Me: Good, just got out of the shower and I might just lay around today. Finally.

I set my phone down and suddenly getting the urge to dance, not even my tour choreography. Just jumping up and down like a little kid talent show dance. I took a breath to hide my smile and dried myself off. Trying to keep my thoughts off Travis.

I brushed out my knotted hair and held up my hair to prepare to put it in a ponytail when I heard my ringtone go off, again. I use my free hand to turn my phone on and as I thought it was Travis but this time he was calling me. Calling. My eyes bulged, looking at myself, my towel slowly slipping off. Even if it was only a call it wasn't reasonable to answer a call in a ponytail and a towel that was half on the ground at this point.

My heart was pounding and I had to choose what i was supposed to do. Get ready and miss his call, or answer it and be fully embarrassed.

"Crap. Gimmie a sec!" I whisper to myself, running to grab a robe. Tying it faster than I ever had before and running back in my bathroom just barely in time to answers his call.

"Hello!" His voice deep, sending fireworks off inside me, I thought my love life would be over. I didn't know I could be 33 and feeling like I'm 17 again

"Hey Travis" I say as calm as I could

"It's nice to finally hear your voice, last time was at your eras tour" he chuckles and I shut my eyes while my face goes pink. I set my phone down and put him on speaker while I tied up my hair which was soaking the back of my robe.

"It's been a while, hasn't it"

"I tried seeing you after, but I guess only high level people get to see Ms Taylor Swift after her concerts" he jokes and making me roll my eyes,

"Yeah yeah, you know how it is. Paparazzi gets crazy sometimes"

"I don't actually. I don't think there's anyone in the world that understands how it feels to be the biggest artist in the world" I hear him smile through the phone and my heart pounds even harder. I take my phone into my room with me, the cats fighting on my bed I snap my finger at them

"Stop it" i whisper yell "sorry, the cats" I chuckle and he does too "whens your next game?" I ask, breaking the ice as I find something to wear

"Why? Finally want to go?" Travis teases

"No, of course not. Just wondering" of course I want to go, I just needed a invite

"I see, well I've got one this weekend against the bears. September 24 and that should be a fun game." He keeps going on and on about games and I loved listening to him talk

I pull on some clothes while he's busy talking and I finally decide to half invite myself to a game

"What game would I be allowed to go to?"

"Oh uhm," his voice cracks and I keep in a giggle "the 24th, if you wanted to. But wouldn't their be like a lot of speculations?" He asks, actually sounding worried. As much as I don't hate rumors about us dating, I knew they wouldn't be good

"What speculations?" I ask, somewhat teasing

"That me and you, where dating" he sounds sheepish as he talks

"Isn't that what your goal was? With the bracelet thing" my heart drops, if it wasn't and I was reading this wrong I would be dead

"Well yeah, sort of. But we aren't" I felt him getting worried

"Travis, your a great guy in every way. And your obviously into me like I am to you. I can go to your game, people think what they want to think, we hang out and keep talking. If something changes from there that would be great but it's still new." I knew it had been months since we started 'talking' but we hadn't seen each other in person and that would make or break it

"That sounds great, I'll get you a ticket today and send you the information. My mom should be there" his voice goes back up and happy again that I didn't reject him

"Donna right?" I ask

"Yes, she might take a little to get used to you but I should be okay." He chuckles but it only makes my stomach drop

"Okay, well, I should see if I actually do have to do work today"

"Alright, I'll see you think weekend?"

"Yup, see you Travis"

"Bye Taylor" with that he hangs up and leaves my face red, heart pounding, and weekend full.
