It was the 11th, Taylor and Luna left to go to Taylor's parents house tomorrow afternoon. Luna was with Eli looking in a jewelry shop, for a birthday gift for taylor.
“What about this one?” Eli held up a silver necklace that had a star on it. Luna didn't look too good to see it. “Okay got it, not that one” eli laughed and put it back down.
“Im looking for a gold necklace, with something about us, and it has to be gold” luna states.
“Do you want to give her your initial? I mean she does say that in a song” Eli suggested.
“Oooo yeah, that sounds good. I'm also going to put a teal gem on there to” Eli looked puzzled, “something between me and Taylor" Luna waves him off, and walks to a worker to ask for the necklace she wanted.
Eli followed her, as the worker as she got what Luna wanted. Luna looked all giddy when she saw the final peace. “She's gonna love it” she whispered, mostly to herself but Eli could hear her.
He smiled at her. She needed this, Luna had been in a really bad place before Taylor, her girlfriend (of 3 years) had just broken up with her, she was missing her family, she was battling the darkness, Eli tried his best to help her through everything, but it just wouldn't work. She would have nightmares about her childhood with her father.
Some Days she was so sleep deprived, she looked sick. Eli was starting to wonder if he should take her in, or something. But when he found out the Lover tour was coming to Detroit, he had to make her go to it. Something to distract her from everything.
And as it turned out, it did just that, she hasn't had a nightmare since, and she looks more alive than anything. Even though she had that panic attack, Taylor was there to help her through it, which Eli is so grateful for.
“Yes, she will” Eli replied, as they walked out the door of the jewelry shop, the bell ringing letting them know they left.

“You ready love?” Taylor asked, as she walked into her room. Luna was putting some stuff into her suitcase that she left at Taylor's house. Taylor had told Luna that she could bring Archer, because she was going to bring her cats, so this way they can get to know one another.
“Yup, i just- got-ta zip this” luna was struggling zipping her suitcase, taylor laughed and went to help her girlfriend. “Thank you darling” Luna smiled, as she kissed her cheek.
Taylor grabbed both of their suitcases and brought them to the car, Luna was on cat dudey. so she got all of the cats into their carriers and into the car. They were finally in the car, at 7, the jet was going to be there at 7:30, so they had some time to get breakfast, and coffee.
So they stopped by the bakery, Luna had called Eli prior to getting there so he had their food ready for them.
“Have fun, Luna,” Eli told her, she smiled, and nodded and thanked him for the food and drinks.
“The goods are here” Luna smiled as she got into the car. Taylor smiled as she took her latte, and took a sip.
“How does he make it so good?” Taylor asks, to no one.
“I don't know but I love it,'' Luna replied. Taylor nodded in agreement, as she took her hand in hers and started the drive to the airport.

“Hello Miss swift” the pilot greeted Taylor, and looked at luna. “And Miss?”
“Luna, Luna Jameson” she smiled and put out her hand, he took it. “What's your name?” she smiles.
“Levi Pierce” the man smiles, he takes Taylors and Lunas bags into the plane, as the girls have the 4 cats with them.
Taylor and Luna walked up the steps, into the plane. “Wow, this is so nice” Luna was in awe of it. “I've never been on a fancy plane before.”
“Yeah, I don't use it that often only for tours and meetings, like in New York or LA'' Taylor told her girlfriend, as they put the cats down in the corner of the plane.
“Well I'm glad we get to use it,” Luna smiled, as they walked to the seats in the middle of the plane. Luna opened her bag, and grabbed a book out and put it on the table in front of Taylor and herself.
“Oh what's that?’ Taylor asks, as she picks up the book. “Huh, the Christmas Swap? Never heard of it”
“It's this cute christmas book, where one woman who fake dates her friend…only to fall for his sister. I think it's really cute so far” Luna smiles as her girlfriend flips through the pages.
“I might have to steal it after you're done” Taylor smirks, Luna laughed, and took back the book.
“We’ll see'' Luna smiled, Taylor looked around, looking to see if anyone was looking before planting a kiss on Luna's nose. “I love you,” Luna whispered.
“I love you too” she replied, and took Luna's hand in hers, she rubbed the top of it with her thumb, as she was writing in her music notebook.
“Whatcha writing?” Luna looked over to taylors notebook, she saw the top said Invisible String, she smiled, remembering the night on the roof.
“Just some more lyrics for the song. You can read them if you want," Luna nodded, as Taylor gave Luna her book. Luna smiled as she read the words,
Green was the color of the grass
Where I used to read at Centennial Park
I used to think I would meet somebody there
Teal was the color of your shirt
When you were sixteen at the yogurt shop
You used to work at to make a little money
“Oh my, you use that?, didn't I tell you that like two weeks ago?” Luna beamed, that taylor wrote about her, i mean yes the song was about her, but like now that she put in something only a few people close to her would know, is special to her.
“Yeah I did, do you not want me to?” Taylor asked, scared she did write something wrong.
“Oh no no, i love it taylor,” taylor smiled, knowing her girlfriend likes it. This song is very special for both of them.
“Thank god, i think im gonna add more to it as i get inspiration, oh did i show you? After you left that other night i wrote some more about the love triangle people.”
“Ooo you did? I did too! I got this one called cardigan, it's through the pov of Betty, the one who got cheated on'' Luna definitely felt a little like Betty, but she didn't think about that anymore, fate brought her Taylor, in her time of need.
“Yeah, I actually got a song I called Betty, I was thinking it should be through James pov,” Taylor flipped through her many pages of her notebook. “Ah here, it's still a little rough, and it does have a lot of f bombs in it but i felt like it works”
“We love to see it, tay. Well here's what I got” Luna pulled out hers and Taylor switched notebooks, each reading the other's work. They wrote in the margins for each other.
“I like how there's references to the other 2 songs in it,” Taylor told her.
“I know me too,” Luna giggled.

“Luna?” Taylor whispered, she wasn't sure if she was asleep or not, because her head was resting on Taylor's shoulder. Their hands interlocked with each other.
“Hm?”
“Promise me that you won't become a stranger?” Taylor asked, as she squeezed her hand, Luna looked up, her brown eyes a little foggy from just waking up.
“I'll never be a stranger, taylor. I plan on staying with you till the end of time” she smiles, taylor let out a sigh.
“Me too” Taylor beamed, and kissed her girlfriend.
