It was my second day at London. I was visiting London for holidays. So, my mum decided we should go to souvenir shop and buy some stuff for our friends and relatives. I was excited.
We got up on a bus and I put headphones in my ears and listened to some The A Team from Ed Sheeran. I love that guy. Haha, the 'love' word it's not enough.
So anyways, we found some souvenir shop near Trafalgar Square. I walked in and saw so many cool stuffs and I just wanted to buy everything. I didn't even concentrate on people around me, I just looked for prices and things I’ll buy. The time passed by, and by that I mean nearly 10 minutes when my mum shouted:”Hey, it is time for us to go, we can’t buy the whole shop,” as she was walking towards cashier. I crawled to her and tried to keep my things, I was holding in my arms, away from the floor. When I looked up I couldn’t believe my eyes. I think I had a little heart attack, or more, eye attack, if that exists.
There he was. My perfection. He stood there and handed my mother back her money. I let out a tiny scream and suddenly all eyes in the room were on me. ”Is this real?” I asked shakily. I dropped some pens I’ve carried. He came and helped me pick them up. ”Are you okay?” he asked nicely. His voice was perfect. I couldn’t even answer. ”What’s the matter honey?” asked my mother and broke the silence.
”IT’S ED SHEERAN!” I shouted. ”Haha ah, I am,” he giggled. Everyone else started to mind their own business, maybe they were in a hurry or something. ”What scared you so much?” he asked me. ”Oh nothing. I am just, just shocked,” I answered stuttering. He laughed a bit, I guess he was just shy. We went to cashier and I paid for things I dropped multiple times. ”Why were you so shocked?” he asked me after. I was nervously looking around the room. ”Well uhm, you’re Ed Sheeran, artist I really really like. The minutes ago I was listening to The A Team and now I’m standing in front of you. Is this a dream, because if it is I don't want to wake up. But can you pinch me or something, because ,” he interrupted ” Because it really is happening. No worries.”
I smiled. ”I really admire you, you’re like perfection. Your music is perfect.”
I think he blushed a little, I’m not sure. ”Thank you, that really means a lot,” he replied with a flawless smile on his face. He hugged me. That was definitely the best hug of my life. I didn't want to let go, his hoody was so soft and he smelled nice. ”I have my album back there, wait here, I’ll get it for you,” he said when I stopped hugging hi. I was still shaking, I mean I just hugged Ed Sheeran though. He came back, signed the album and gave it to me. ”I hope this will remember you on me, when you’ll stop listening to my music.”
”I hope that never happens,” I returned and smiled with the widest smile. We talked about something for a few minutes, but I can’t remember it clearly, I was too busy with looking at him, his eyes, his hair. I was taken over him, over helmed.
It all happened so fast and quickly and my mum shouted we really have to leave. I was sad, but I had to go. It's been over an hour since we came. My mum grabbed my hand and bags. I guess she didn't even realize who is Ed and what was going on.
I couldn’t stop looking at him while he was still smiling at me. He walked with us to the exit door and there he softly grabbed my hand and kissed my cheek. That was the moment I can't forget, I won't forget, hopefully. So he waved after that and smiled at me, and I have never seen those eyes again.
