heroine (taylor swift and travis kelce)

'he jokes that it's heroin but this time with an "e"'

Taylor Swift didn't realise that love wasn't supposed to feel heavy. It had been so long since she'd felt the light and warmth of love that she'd forgotten it wasn't shadows and gloom. That love doesn't make you feel like you're trying to control a toy ship in the Arctic Ocean, trying to keep him afloat at all costs. She'd forgotten that a pressure like that should never be entirely up to her.

She didn't realise that until she drowned trying to save something that was decaying in front of her.

A single moment turned her world to stone - the betrayal of a guy that had been in her dreams for years. A guy with curly, chocolate brown hair and tattoos. Initially, he swooped in and played Prince Charming perfectly, until he turned out to be the villain in her story. A guy that stole her dreams and crushed her soul in a single action. A guy that makes her break. A person that makes her feel like there's no point trying to be whole ever again.

Until she met a tall, handsome football player that somehow she'd never heard of before. Travis Kelce - a member of the Kansas City Chiefs. A gentleman that makes her realise that perhaps, all is not lost. Perhaps she is not damaged goods, or the cause of every problem known to man, or the only one responsible for keeping the relationship afloat. That perhaps what happened to her was not her fault, that she is not to blame for what happened to her.
A man that reminds her that there is no storm that they can't weather... together.

Whether on the football field, or stage, the two of them find exactly what they never knew they needed.
