A/N: This is a songfic based on the son Speak Now by Taylor Swift, because I wanted to give a songfic a shot, but in a (hopefully) different way. This is a Tratie. Now to the disclaimer.

Italics=Speak now song

Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN THE PJO SERIES OR TAYLOR SWIFT SONGS. THAT MAKES ME SO SAD/MAD, I'M YELLING.

Speak Now

Katie was tending to her garden in the small garden box outside her Manhattan apartment in the rain when she heard a voice she recognized. One she thought she'd never hear again.

"Travis?" she breathed.

A man that looked like Travis, except a bit shorter stepped out. He looked worried, something Katie never saw. "It's Connor, actually."

"Oh. What do you want?" Disappointment made her voice cold.

"We have a major emergency. Travis is getting married."

"You'd better be joking."

"I'm not." Connor's face was dead serious, another first. "He's marrying that bitch Drew."

"NO!" Katie turned away, tears already starting. She was so shocked; she forgot to scold Connor for swearing.

"But, I have a plan only you can help me with. To break them up."

Katie looked up, eager excitement plain on her tear-streaked face. "Tell me."

So Connor whispered his plan in her ear. It was so much like what she and Travis would've planned; she almost burst into tears again. Ever since Travis left, she had been getting more fragile everyday. But she smiled in spite of this, and then left to get ready.

Katie Gardner was going to crash Travis's wedding.

She changed into a simple green dress with an empire waist and met Connor at his car. They drove off to the church.

Connor dropped Katie off in front of the church before running inside to start his plan. He found the CD player fast enough. As he popped in the Taylor Swift CD, Katie sneakily entered the church.

I am not the kind of girl

Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion?

That was true, Katie thought to herself. Who would've dreamed that good girl Katie would ruin somebody's wedding?

I sneak in and see your friends

And her snotty little family all dressed in pastel

And she is yelling at a bridesmaid

Somewhere back inside a room

Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry

Katie peeked into a room near the entrance. Drew was throwing a massive fit at a bridesmaid.

"THEY CAN'T PLAY THIS DAMN SONG!" she yelled. "IT'LL MAKE TRAVIS THINK OF KATIE!"

The bridesmaid flinched at her loud voice. Drew dropped her voice to a whisper. Katie had to strain to hear her.

"Then Travis won't react to the charmspeak I placed on him. Then who would I charmspeak to steal me clothes?"

Katie sucked in a deep breath. That was why Travis had left. She had thought he was acting funny. That complete…no, she wouldn't swear. It was one of her sticking points with Travis. That complete WITCH, Drew. That was better.

"Umm…Connor?" whispered the bridesmaid, timidly.

"NO! You IDIOT! Turn the music off!" Drew yelled. Inserting quite a few more cusses.

"We don't have time. You have to go walk down the aisle now!"

Drew regained her composure and smoothed her pastry-shaped gown. "Cue the organ."

But the organ player was nowhere to be seen. Stage 2 of Connor's plan was in action. Instead, Taylor Swift's voice filled the silence.

And the organ starts to play, a song that sounds like a death march,

I am hiding in the curtains, it seemed that I was uninvited by you're lovely bride-to-be

"Just go!" cried the bridesmaid, starting out down the aisle. Drew reluctantly followed. Travis stood at the front, entranced, but seemingly confused by the song. There was a name tugging at his mind. Kelley…Kelsey…Kaitlin…Katie! That was it! Katie Gardner, the only girl he had ever loved. Why was he marrying Drew. But then her voice washed over him and he was helplessly glued to his spot.

"Travis, honey. You are going to marry me!"

The song kept playing.

She floats down the aisle, like a pageant queen

But I know, you wish it was me, you wish it was me, don't you?

Travis watched Drew float up to him, but just for a second, Katie's face flickered over hers.

Meanwhile, Katie was hiding in the curtains, wanting to jump out, but holding herself to Connor's plan.

Don't say yes, run away now

I'll meet you when I'm out of the church at the back door,

Don't wait, or say a single vow, you need to hear me out

And they said Speak Now.

Katie repeated the words in her head to gain confidence. Everyone in the church was either really getting in to the song, or really awkward and confused. The preacher started to speak.

I hear the preacher say "Speak now or forever hold your peace."

The preacher cleared his throat. "Speak now, or forever hold your peace."

That was Katie's cue. She stepped out from the curtains and was greeted by a death glare from Drew. She held her head up high and sang along with the song.

"…I am not the kind of girl to be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion."

Travis grinned. He remembered Katie. That was SO true.

"…But you, are not the kind of boy, who should be marrying the wrong girl."

The chorus played in the background as Travis stared at Katie. She seemed to clear his mind. He gave her that mischievous grin that made her heart stop.

"…Let's run away now, I'll meet you when I'm out of my tux at the back door. Baby, I didn't say my vows, so glad you were around when they said Speak Now."

Travis walked up to Katie and offered her his hand. The music changed to an upbeat, dancing type of music. They ran out of the church together and into the pouring rain.

They stood like that for ages, just taking in each other. Finally, Travis spoke.

"I'm so sorry, Katie, for leaving you," he began, but Katie cut him off.

"I know everything. Drew used her charmspeak…"

"Why did you care about me, enough to crash that gods-awful wedding to Drew?"

Katie looked him right in the eyes. "You told me you loved me. You are my everything. I would never give up on you."

Katie pulled Travis down to kiss him, but just then Drew came storming out of the church. She was holding a ring in her hand.

"TAKE YOUR DAMN CHEAP RING!" she yelled, throwing it at him. She spun around and headed back into the church.

"You know that gown looks like a pastry?" Travis called after her.

"I HATE YOU TRAVIS STOLL!" Drew yelled. She ran into the church without a glance back.

Travis grinned. Mission accomplished. Then, he had a brilliant idea. (I bet Travis doesn't get those very often.) "Well, I might as well put this to good use." Travis knelt down on one knee.

Katie's breath caught in her throat.

"Katie Gardner, you are super strict, demanding, bossy…"

Katie glared at him. Was this all a joke?

"…loud, and the only girl I have ever wanted to marry. I love you, Katie. Will you marry me?"

She stared at him, a smile playing across her lips. "I don't know. I guess I'll have to think about that first part of your proposal…"

Now Travis was kind of nervous.

"YES!" Travis couldn't help but think of how loud she could yell. He slid the ring on her finger.

"You know, Gardner. You still scream louder than Drew."

She glared at him again. "Still annoying as ever, Stoll."

"That's why you love me."

Katie rolled her eyes. Then, she threw her arms around Travis. "I missed you."

"Amazingly, I did too." Then he paused. "Unless you're talking about you waking me up at some ungodly hour."

"Really. It was only 7 o'clock, It's not that early."

"Sure."

Katie raised her eyebrows. "Is this really how you want to treat you're fiancée?"

Travis allowed his grin to fade. "I won't forget how good you are with a dagger." Then he leaned in to kiss her.

Connor walked out of the church to find Travis and Katie in a heated lip-lock. He grinned when he saw the ring on Katie's hand. If he was to have a sister-in-law, better Katie than Drew. Even if she did yell a lot.

Suddenly the sun came out, and the rain stopped. Travis and Katie broke apart. Travis gave her the "I have an idea" look she knew. (*gasp* TWO great ideas in one story! That Travis just gets smarter everyday. Even if it is one brain cell at a time.) He pulled her along to his "Just Married" car.

Travis reached into the white convertible and picked out a can of spray paint.

Katie raised her eyebrows. "You have spray paint in your car?"

He shrugged. "I'm prepared for every prank imaginable. You're talking to a son of Hermes."

He handed her the spray paint. Katie smirked and crossed out the 'Just Married' to 'Just Engaged.' Travis got out another can of paint, and they covered the car with spray paint.

Finally, they drove off. But Travis stopped in the middle of an empty stretch of road. "This needs something dramatic!" he pronounced.

Katie rolled her eyes. Like Travis wasn't dramatic enough for both of them.

Travis pulled out a stick of dynamite from the glove box. Then he reached for a lighter in the glove box. Katie was stunned.

"YOU HAVE DYNAMITE IN YOUR CAR?" she shrieked, voice rising an octave. Travis grinned at her. "Never mind, I should've known."

He made sure the road was empty, lit the stick of dynamite and threw it as far as he could. They sped up, leaving the dynamite a safe distance behind.

There was a huge explosion behind them. Certainly dramatic enough for Travis, they rode off into the distance with an explosion behind them. Katie turned away so Travis couldn't see her grin. She had always wanted to leave with something exploding behind her.

She sure had missed Travis.

A/N: This will probably stay a one-shot songfic, but I might add a few more songs. Not my best ending ever, but I also always wanted a dramatic exit with something exploding behind me. I'm in that kind of mood today. Check out my other stories please! OH, AND REVIEW!
