"end game"

(Taylor's POV)

I squirm and kick me feet as Travis' hands tickle my abdomen. "T-Trav s-stop it you're going to make me piss my pants holy f-fuck", I laugh out uncontrollably.

He rolls over top of me both of his hands on each side of my body holding himself up and he stares into my eyes. He leans forward to my face and bites his bottom lip. I place my hand in front of my lips when he makes a move which makes him frown and whine my name.

"Sorry, love, but we have to talk about something."

His face goes serious. "What is it Tay."

"Nothing bad.. well it depends on how you take it, but my parents want to meet you."

"Oh yeah that's no problem I would love to meet them to. When?"

"Umm... today at 4 for dinner..."

"Today?", He chokes out shocked and he stands up. "Holy hell its already noon, Taylor."

"I know, I know they are already um on there way."

"And your just now telling me this?"

"I- um yeah I am really sorry, Travis. I didn't think you would be so nervous." I look down at the ground.

Travis walks over to me and rubs my cheek. "Oh sweetheart, I am sorry I didn't mean to raise my voice like that, okay? I am happy I get to meet them, but it's just really short notice but I am sure I could make it work, alright?"

Why did I think he was going to respond like Joe would? Travis is not Joe. Joe was an asshole who made you feel bad and pathetic for everything you did even if it was to please somebody. He didn't seem like that person but after 6 years of experience it clicks to you. Travis is a true gentleman unlike all the other boys I've dated.

I nod with a sniffle. "Now may I kiss you?"

"Yes, of course I am waiting", I smile shyly back.

"Okay, okay so the kitchen is clean, dining room, living room... um are we missing anything?" Travis paces the house and all I could do is smile at him.

"Trav, oh my god you are a hot mess. My parents are not anything like Emily Gilmore do not worry."

"Who the fuck is Emma Gilmerton or whatever you just said", he frowns.

I laugh and wrap my arms around his waist. "They are going to absolutely love you no matter what, I promise."

"Were they upset that they had to fly all the way over here to Kansas City?"

"Nope they offered to come here, they were really excited, now stop stressing, would you?"

The doorbell rings and I raise an eyebrow with a smirk. "You got this, big boy."

I grasp his hand and pull open the door and smile at my mom and dad.

"Taylor, my baby, come here, love." My mom pulls me into a tight hug and I move over to my dad.

"I missed ya'll so much!"

"We missed you too, darling."

"Now hurry up introduce us to the handsome fellow."

Travis' face flushes red and he places his hand out. "Travis.. um Travis Kelce I um am the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs."

My dad chuckles and gladly shakes his hand. "Nice! I played back then in Hawaii and then a bit when I moved back into the states."

"I am Scott and this is the mother of Taylor, Andrea."

"It is a pleasure to meet you, we have heard oh so much about you. Taylor is so in love with you its adorable. Feels like her first highschool boyfriend all over again."
