Invisible String

"I need you to hurry, it's so loud and I need to listen to Taylor and the drums." I try to yell.

I continue to play as I wing it since I can't hear any metronome. Well I'm screwed.

"You're good. It wasn't plugged in all the way." Frank says me I nod as I put one back in my ear.

Ooh definitely better.

"Chorus. Two. Three. Four."

Taylor's POV

"Thank you Montreal!" I wave for a couple of seconds and the lights dim.

I walk backstage to where the band is as I try to find Natalie. Easy to spot when she's the one laying on the floor every time after a show.

"Hey, what happened out there?" I ask as I pat her back.

"My IEM stopped working." She says and I furrow my eyebrows.

"But didn't we check it before?" I ask and she nods.

"It wasn't plugged in all the way. Also FYI your fans are CRAZY loud. My ears were bleeding for the three minutes it took Frank to figure out what was wrong with my IEM."

"But you're okay?" I ask and she nods.

"Take me to a bed and let me nap." She says and I shake my head.

"I can't. I'm going to meet some fans."

"Damn it. Okay then. I'll see you back on the bus. I have to go put the instruments away either way. Good luck. Holler if you need me!"

"Will do you goof. Oh and I need to talk to you after."

"Should I be scared?" She asks.

"I don't think so."

I walk out to greet some fans. They're all so cute.

"Hi guys." I say waving at everyone.

I take pictures, sign some stuff, and talk to the fans. Which I absolutely love. They're so sweet. I love them all.

"Taylor your guitarist is HOT."

That too, many people go a bit crazy over Nat. Typical.

"Yeah what's her name?" Another fan asks and I chuckle.

"Her name is Natalie." I say with a smile as I sign her shirt.

"Can you tell her that I think she's hot?"

"Uh yeah I can definitely tell her that." I say lightly laughing.

I look over at the girls and I smile.

"What if I bring her out here?" I say and their eyes practically almost fall out from their eye sockets.

"Seriously?" The two girls say.

"I can definitely try." I say and they nod their heads. "Frank can you call Natalie."

"Got it." He says and I nod.

Natalie's POV

"She wants me to do WHAT." I shout as I change into my sweats.

"She wants you to g-"

"No no I heard. But WHAT."

"It's just quick, I think. Don't take my word for it, but she wants you there." Frank says and I nod.

"Let me just change into something other than my sweats." I say and he nods.

I quickly grab a pair of black jeans and button it up as I grab my shoes then run out.

"I was summoned?" I ask the security.

"Miss Swift." He says.

Taylor nods and they let me through.

"Girls this is Natalie, Natalie these are your fans?"

Fans? I have fans?

"We love you!" The two girls says and I chuckle.

"Uhh thanks." I say and they smile.

"Can we take a picture with you and Taylor?"

"Sure why not." I say.

We take a picture, Taylor finishes signing some stuff for them and done.

"Note to self, being famous like you. Don't want it." I say.

"Scared?" She asks and I nod.

"Very. That was intense."

"It was only two girls, now imagine millions." Taylor says and my eyes widen.

"I'm gonna go back to putting things away. New Jersey here we come!"
