Lost in Europe

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE- AVERY

I woke up in my bed the next afternoon, seriously shaken. That was the creepiest dream ever... And it didn't even make sense. Those are the worst dreams, if you ask me.

“ Becca?” I yelled out. My voice was hoarse and scratchy, almost like I had been chewing on a bag of nails.

“ In here. Hold on.” She waled out of the bathroom just as I sat up in my bed. “ You know, you might look tiny, but dragging you from the downstairs diner to the elevator, then back in to our room without getting you get caught my Mr. Evens is really a challenge.” She placed her hand on her hip while the other brushed her teeth.

“ Sorry...” I stood up and stretched, bringing my arms up above my head. “ What- What exactly... Happened?” I stammered.

“ You really don't remember?” There was a pause. I shrugged my shoulders to show her my answer.

“ You punched that Cindy chick in the nose and ran into Collin on the way out of the bathroom. What happened between you two anyways? I mean I know she took your ex boyfriend, but damn. You broke her nose!” I secretly smiled to myself with satisfaction.

“ She was being a bitch... As usual, and I was tired of it. She does this crap to me all the time. I just showed her that she doesn't own me... That's all... Did I get in trouble?” I avoided the topic of what Cindy told me and just skipped straight to consequences.

“ No. Cindy told Mr. Evens that she was going to the bathroom and a lady walked out fast and hit her with the door. She's all bandaged up now and sleeping. They gave her a boat load of pain meds.” She deserved it... Ha.

I walked over to the mini living room area and sat down on the couch with my phone. Six new messages and two calls, all from Ed.

Hey :)

Wanna hang out today?

Avery? You there?

Avery! :)

I'm kind of worried... Did I do something?

Okay... So you're pissed at me for something or just ignoring me? Sorry for whatever I did! :(

I clicked on his name and brought up the messages, then made the fastest respond ever.

ED!! Sorry... I had a crappy day yesterday when I got back. A bunch of drama stuff >.< Call me and we can hang out today! Wanna meet somewhere?

He responded seconds later.

Sure :) I'll pick you up at the hotel in thirty minutes?

Sounds awesome! ;) See you then.

Okay... Ed Sheeran. He has red hair, just like me. He is nineteen- twenty in February- so he's only a few months older than me. He loves guitar and writes songs. He likes to party. He likes to drive cool sports cars. He knows some really awesome sites in London that nobody else knows about. He has stubble on his chin. He is sweet and breathtaking. Literally, I could stare at his eyes all day and be completely content with my life. So far, I've spent four days with Ed and feel like I really know him. We've already had sex twice... The first was supposed to be a one night thing... And I already think- I know- I'm falling for him. Hard.

Well, at least he's not a complete stranger anymore...

Sorry I haven't written in a while. I promise the next chapter will be longer than this. I'm trying to lenthen my writing, so we'll see.
