A week has passed since Taylor's procedure and so far, there are no signs of pregnancy. She took one pregnancy test, even though Dr. Parker told her it may still be too early to tell. It's been a challenge to not stress herself out because the endorphins that are released when you stress, can potentially effect her chances of getting pregnant. Karlie had arranged a spa day and walks in the park, just to keep her at ease. Both worked a little but to Taylor's surprise, the thing that has worked the most is therapy.
She has attended four individual therapy sessions this week and two group sessions. She actually enjoyed group so much that she decided to take on an additional day. She loves the fact that it's a small group of only six people and there are only two guys in the class. Everyone seems to be around the same age, give or take a few years, but they're all really funny and seem to be really nice people overall. She even made a friend, her name is Tina.
Tina and Taylor hit it off the during the first class. It was Tina's first time going to a group session and she was pretty nervous. Taylor must have sensed the young girls fear because she invited her to have a seat next to her. From that point forward, they were classroom buddies.
"Babe, what are you doing?"
"I'm on my way to my group session." Taylor replied.
"I thought you only have it twice a week? You already went Monday and Wednesday."
"Kar, I told you the other night that I was planning on going to Friday's class. You probably don't remember because you were so wrapped up in your movie."
"Oh. Yeah, I think I vaguely remember you saying something about that. I just thought that we would go out to dinner tonight."
Taylor walked over to her wife and sat on her lap. "I'm sorry Karlie. It's just that, I was so nervous about going to a group session in the first place and so far, I really enjoy it. I feel 'normal' to know that other people struggle with inner demons too. I don't know, I just don't feel so alone. If you don't want me to go, then I won't."
Although Karlie wanted to tell Taylor to stay home, she knew she couldn't do that. She knew that Taylor was doing the whole therapy thing, not just for herself but for Karlie as well and it wouldn't be fair to ask her to not go, especially after threatening divorce.
"No, babe. I want you to go. I'm glad that you feel so comfortable and that it's really helping you. I'll be here when you get back."
"Thank you Kar."
Taylor kissed her wife goodbye before she got up and left for class.
"Hi Taylor, I'm surprised to see you here tonight. I thought you said you were only going to come on Monday and Wednesday?"
"Hey Tina. I had a change of heart. I think it's a pretty entertaining class and all you guys are a lot of fun, so I figured why not. Plus, I didn't have any plans so it worked out."
"YOU DIDN'T HAVE PLANS?" Tina said in a loud whisper. "You're married to Karlie Kloss for God's sake. How could you not have any plans? Oh my, I'm sorry. I know we're not supposed to talk about our personal lives. I shouldn't have said anything."
"Tina relax, it's ok. Unfortunately, I live my life assuming that the whole world knows more about me and my personal life than I do. It's not a big deal. I'm used to it."
The therapist walked in to begin the class as the girls quickly finished their conversation.
As the session got started, Taylor's phone began to vibrate. She glanced at it quickly, to see a text from Karlie.
I misssssss youuuuuu!!!!!
The singer began to smile at how cute her wife is.
Back at home Karlie was driving herself crazy. She was bored and lonely and missed her wife. She grabbed her phone and decided to call Lily, knowing that she was back in the states.
"Hey Kar, what's going on?"
"Nothing much, just sitting here reading some magazines. How have you been?"
"Good. I'm just glad to be back. I'm in NY right now but I'm leaving for Nashville in the morning for a couple of days. Hey, I'll be in LA next week. Are you still gonna be out there?"
"Yeah. You should come visit. Taylor and I would love to see you. I feel like I haven't seen you in forever."
"Listen, I have to go to bed. My flight is at 6am. I'll call you when I get out to LA."
"Alright Lil. Talk to you soon. Bye."
Karlie hung up and looked at her watch.
Thank God, her class is over in 15 minutes
The model took a shower and put her pajamas on as she laid on the bed, reading a magazine, waiting for Taylor to come home. As she laid there, her eyes began to slowly close as sleep was about to take over.
Almost two hours later, Karlie woke up after hearing the downstairs door slam shut.
She hopped up to see what happened. As she got to the hall, she saw Taylor just make it to the top of the stairs.
"I'm sorry, did I wake you babe?"
"It's ok. I thought someone broke in."
"No, the door knob slipped out of my hand." Taylor said as she walked over and kissed her wife.
"What time is it Tay?"
"Almost 10."
"TEN? Your session was supposed to be 7-8."
"It was. But Scott, Tina, Marie and I were hungry, so we grabbed a bite to eat."
"Oh. You couldn't call?"
"Umm, I did call but you didn't answer. I assumed you were asleep."
"So, who are these people exactly?"
"They're just a few people from class. You have to meet them Kar. They are soooo funny. Scott is 31 and a divorced father of two."
"Marie is 27 and newly married to a UFC fighter. Ever since they married his traveling has become an issue in their marriage and he's constantly telling her that she knew what she was getting herself into when she married him."
"And Tina is 24. She grew up in Texas with her sister and two brothers but moved to California to attend college. She is a systems manager for Paramount pictures but is in the process of looking for a new job. She's been with her girlfriend since her sophomore year of college and is afraid to commit to marriage even though they've been together for six years. Her girlfriend is giving her the final chance of figuring out what the underlying issue is before having no choice but to move on without Tina."
"Why do you know so much about Tina?"
"Probably because we sit right next to each other and pretty much clicked from day one. She's really nice and down to earth."
"Mmmhmm." Karlie responded.
"Kar, what's wrong?"
"Nothing. I just missed you, that's all."
"Well, I'm back now." Taylor replied with smile. She walked over to Karlie and wrapped her arms around the models waist as she kissed her lips.
"I missed you too. And tomorrow night I'm going to make it up to you."
Taylor began to twirl a piece of Karlie's hair in her fingers as she said, "How about we go out on a romantic date, just the two of us."
Karlie gave her a kiss as she whispered, "I'd like that," against her lips.
Taylor went to go take a shower, as Karlie hopped back into bed. When Taylor emerged a short time later, she curled up next to her wife as the two began to watch tv.
Taylor's phone started to vibrate on the nightstand. As she reached over to get it, she saw a text from Tina.
Hey, did you get home ok? Had so much fun. We'll have to make it s habit to grab a bite to eat after one of our classes each week. See ya Monday. Tina
Taylor replied back...
Made it home. That's a great idea. You can meet Karlie. See you next week. Taylor
"Who's texting you?" Karlie asked.
"Tina. She wanted to know if I got home ok and said we should grab a bite to eat after one of our classes every week."
Karlie rolled her eyes as she looked at her wife. "Oh really? Well isn't that romantic."
"Karlie Elizabeth Swift-Kloss, are you jealous?"
"Who me? No. Not at all."
"You ARE jealous." Taylor said as she laid on top of her wife and 'booped' her nose with her finger.
"I am not."
"Hmmm, just a little bit?" Taylor asked as she squinted her eyes and smirked.
"Ok, fine. Maybe just a tiny bit." Karlie replied.
Taylor planted little kisses all over Karlie's face.
"You have nothing to be jealous of. I love you and only you. Tonight was just a spur of the moment thing that a few of us went out. In my text reply, I told her it was a great idea to go out once a week because now she gets to meet YOU. I love you baby. And nothing or no one will ever come between us."
Karlie felt a lot better, as she kissed her wife and pulled her close.
