'...you take my hand
and drag me headfirst
fearless.'

cast:

young taylor swift as tessa smythe

(this casting is just to give you a little something to picture tessa as, i describe her as a lanky girl with curly blonde hair, doesn't have to be taylor swift! )

the rest of the malcolm in the middle cast as their respective characters

playlist:

'all i know is pouring rain
and everything has changed
all i know is a new found grace
all my days, i'll know your face'

made up almost solely of taylor swift songs, of course, lol

main songs for the fic:

1. fearless (taylor's version) by taylor swift
2. mary's song (oh my my) by taylor swift
3. steamroller by phoebe bridgers
4. i'm only me when i'm with you by taylor swift
5. everything has changed featuring ed sheeran by taylor swift

'you're a brother to me
you're my partner in crime
you're the feeling that i get when i'm
feelin' fine
part of me wants you but
most of me needs you'

note:

all rights belong to the malcolm in the middle creators, i only own my character and her changes to the storyline. rights to all the lyrics mentioned belong to their artists (mainly taylor swift lol).

i'm wrote this story for my own pleasure, just cause i love reese so much and i thought of tessa to bring something more into his story and the show. i hope you enjoy reading it just as much as i enjoy writing it!

this will take place from the last episode of season 2 and further. i just don't exactly have much for tessa to do in the other episodes before that

' 'cause i dont know how
it gets better  than this...'
