Against the Rules (Taylor Swift x Reader)

Y/N's POV
If Taylor wasn't going to play fair, neither was I.

I leaned back in my chair, my laptop open in front of me, fingers tapping against the keyboard as I scrolled through endless pictures and articles.

Finding out who he was hadn't been difficult.

A simple Google search of Taylor Swift boyfriend had given me all I needed.

Travis Kelce.

NFL superstar. Public figure. The kind of man who had cameras flashing in his face 24/7.

I stared at his picture, my jaw tightening.

Five years.

She had been with him for five fucking years, and yet she had kissed me like I was the only one who mattered.

Like she wanted me.

I let out a bitter laugh, shaking my head.

She thought she could keep playing this game.

She thought she had control.

Not anymore.

I picked up my phone and typed out a message.

Y/N: Your time is up.

It didn't take long for her to respond.

Taylor: I'm not playing this stupid game with you.

I smirked.

Oh, but she was.

She just didn't realize I had already won.

I attached a screenshot of Travis Kelce's Instagram profile and hit send.

A minute passed. Then two.

Nothing.

And then—

Taylor: What the fuck are you doing?

I could almost hear the panic in her voice.

Good.

I wasn't going to expose her. Not yet.

No, this had to be fun.

I switched over to Instagram, searching for @killatrav, my lips curling as I clicked on the "Message" button.

I kept my tone professional. Polite.

Y/N: Hey Travis! I'm a sports reporter for ESPN. I'd love to set up an exclusive interview with you about your career and your life off the field. Let me know if you're interested!

I pressed send and leaned back, waiting.

It didn't take long.

Travis: "Hey! That sounds great. I'd be happy to do an interview. Let me know when you're available."

Hook. Line. Sinker.

I could practically feel the power shifting in my favor.

Taylor thought she was untouchable.

She thought she could keep me a secret.

She thought she could have both of us.

She was about to learn the hard way that I wasn't someone you could just play with.

Taylor's POV
My stomach twisted as I stared at my phone.

Y/N knew.

She fucking knew.

And now, she was pushing me into a corner I wasn't ready to be in.

I had barely processed the last message when Travis walked into the room, smiling at his phone.

Travis: "Babe, you won't believe this. Some reporter named Y/N just reached out to interview me. I think I might do it."

My heart stopped.

I forced a smile.

Taylor: "Oh? That's... great."

But inside—

I was panicking.

I could feel the weight of the situation pressing on me. This was all falling apart.

I knew I had to do something about it—fast.

I grabbed my phone, typing quickly, trying to get a hold of Y/N.

Taylor: What the fuck is this game you're playing?

I sent it off and stared at my screen, waiting for her reply.

Seconds later, the response pinged in.

Y/N: You'll just have to wait and see.

My frustration flared up, but I kept my emotions in check.

She was in control right now.

And I hated it.

Y/N's POV
I had the upper hand now.

Taylor was playing defense, and I was all in.

I texted Travis back, feeling my confidence rise.

Y/N: Sounds great! How about we do the interview at your and Taylor's place? It'll give us a chance to chat without distractions.

A moment later, he replied.

Travis: "Perfect. Taylor and I will be home tomorrow evening. See you then!"

I couldn't help but smirk as I put my phone down.

This was just the beginning.

Taylor's POV
My phone buzzed again, and I couldn't help but glance at the screen.

It was from Travis.

Travis: "Y/N wants to do the interview at our place tomorrow night. Is that okay?"

The breath in my lungs caught, and I swallowed hard.

Of course she would.

She wanted to come into my territory.

She wanted to make things personal.

I could already feel the jealousy building in my chest.

But I couldn't afford to show it.

Not yet.

I couldn't let Y/N see how much she was messing with me.

But as my mind raced, I knew that this was far from over.
