evermore {Taylor Swift AU}

~25~

Andreas POV

I went to go see the boys.

"Hey Nana!" Said Julian, my heart was warm.

"Hey boys, why don't I take you guys out?" I asked.

"Sounds like fun Nana!" James said and they followed me.

The families went their separate ways and did their own thing

Taylor's POV

I was awoken by Selena at 6:00 pm.

"Girl you gotta get up, Joes gonna be here soon," she said.

"Oh my goodness, I haven't even checked with Harley." I freaked.

"Wake her up then, she's been sleeping since we left the house," Selena said. She was right.

"Harley, Harley come on hun we gotta go," I said gently tapping her. She whines in exhaustion.

"I don't wanna," she whines.

"And why not?" I question.

"I'm tired," she whines again.

"You've been sleeping on and off, come on, I'll let you have soda to wake up," I said and that got her up. Normally I will not let my foster daughter drink soda too much cause she's 9.

"We're going to dinner, the boys are out with your nana," I said and she okayed.

"Wanna come Sel?" I asked.

"Sure why not," Selena said.

My phone dinged.

@MamaSwiftPriv; Who has the best Nana? The Swift Boys have the best Nana! 🍦🍨

"Oh my goodness did you see what my mom just posted," I laugh.

"No lemme check it," Selena said opening her phone.

"Oh my god, they are so spoiled," Selena said.

"Right, wait till he {Joe} has them tomorrow," I said to Selena so Harley didn't freak out.

Text from Joe {My Man's🩷}

On my way up darling, hope you guys are ready ~XO Joe

I'm honestly going to wear something comfortable and dressy Harley comfy too.

The girls got ready.

"Hey," Joe said as I opened the door.

"Hey I'm going to go over to her and bring her to Selena and she can go with us," I said and Joe nodded and I kissed him.

"Hey Harls, someone's here why don't you stand behind me?" I suggested to her.

"Okay," I said and Joe walked out, and Harley hid behind me and was so scared she went to Selena so fast.

"Awh honey it's okay," Selena said to Harley.

"Cmon hon, Joe isn't going to hurt you, he's got a surprise for you after dinner," I said to her holding out my hand and she grabbed it. Walking in between Joe and I but holding on to me.

Selena walked next to me and Harley loosened up a bit walking closer to Joe.

Harleys POV

I don't know why I was so scared, he reminded me nothing of my old fosters, but my Poppop and my Uncle did I wish they didn't, but I started loosening up to Joe.

I was walking closer to Joe and he put his arm around me. I slowly accepted it. I fake  yawn and he stops.

"Want me to carry you?" He asked in a whisper and I nod slowly he put me on his back and I leaned against him.

We're close to the restaurant and I see Taylor taking a picture of me.

The family continues to walk to the restaurant and they finally made it

Taylor's POV

"Hi we have a reservation for Swift," Joe said still carrying our foster daughter on his back.

"Right this way sir." The waiter says and we follow and we did.

"I wanna sit next to Taylor," I hear Harley say to Joe he nods and let's her go over to me.

"Hey princess," I say hugging her.

The family sat down at the table ordering drinks and waiting to order

"So Harley I was thinking, tomorrow we can have part of the day to spend some time together? And your mom and Selena will take the boys?" Joe suggested and I looked at Harley and she smiles.

"Id like that," she said.

"Tay you cool with that?" Joe asked.

"Yeah that's fine Joe, we can do a family dinner tomorrow? Or just the adults go out? I can have Lian watch the kids," I said.

"Sounds good to me, Lian can take the kids to the pool or something," Joe suggested.

The family ordered their food and waited.

The food arrived and the family began eating. Taking pictures of the young girl

We finished eating and Harley went back on Joes back.

"How about we go get ice cream yeah?" Joe suggested and we walked down to the Parlor.

Harleys POV

I started getting a bit more comfortable around Joe but things still were tense. We went and got ice cream and sat down.

"Hey Har you got something on your noise," Joe said and I looked at him confused.

"Wha? No I don.." I stopped and Joe put a finger worth of ice on my nose.

"Joe!" I said doing it back to him. Selena and Taylor both laughing at us and Taylor taking pictures.

"Tay you got something too." I said.

"Wha?" Taylor questioned and I did the same thing to her.

"Harley Marie!" She squealed, and then picked me up and Joe came over to us and he tickled me in Taylor's arms.

"Smile guys," Aunt Selena said and it was a moment we couldn't stop for and we just laughed.

The family finished their ice cream and then got really to depart their ways.

"Say bye to Joe," Taylor asked. I ran to him giving him a big hug.

"Thank you," I whispered to him and he looked at me.

"I'll see you tomorrow kiddo, be good to your mom," he says and I laugh.

"Always," I said.

The young girl and her foster mom and aunt walked ways down to the hotel and back up to their rooms.
