"Ed this is beautiful" I breathed as I took in the beauty of his house. It was a beautiful white brick on the outside and the inside was fresh. It had a large viewing window which looked out to a courtyard, not a very big one, but big enough for James to play in. His living area was huge. and by huge I mean we could fit like a hundred people in here, it was an off-white color and the counter-tops were blue stone. The sofa really matched the color of the counter-top and I was just standing in awe.
"I haven't been here in like 6 months" he said as he slumped onto the sofa, putting his feet onto the coffee table, shoes still on. James let go of my hand and raced over to Ed, jumping on his stomach.
"oof watch it buddy" Ed said as he tickled James and placed him next to him on the sofa. The boys settled down for the afternoon while I set up a bedroom for James, as Ed and I shared.
"Ed, do we have food?" I asked as I opened the fridge, seeing nothing but a couple of beer bottles and a plate with god knows what rotting on it.
"uh, no, we're gunna have to go shopping" he said as I sighed and gave him the are you serious look. "yeah im serious" he said as if he knew what I was thinking "we can go now before it gets late, come on" He said as he heaved himself up from his seat, taking James hand and going to get their shoes and coats, well hoodie in Eds case.
We made it to the store and I sat James in the cart. Ed followed closely behind us and he kept standing on the backs of my feet which was driving me insane.
"Edward, stop it" I said as I stopped pushing the cart and stood with my back to him. "sorry its amusing" he said, giving me a light tap on the butt. I giggled slightly art this and continued looking at all the food. "you know you can put whatever you want in love" Ed said as I looked at all the confectionary in front of me. "i don't want you to spend too much" I said. " I have enough money to buy Stu a new car, im sure I can afford food" he said matter of factly as he threw some boxes of cereal and fajita mix into the cart. "dad?" James started, looking intensely at Ed. "yeah lad?" Ed replied. " can we buy fwench food?" He asked, looking around for something. " if we can find it" Ed said. We travelled down the international food aisle in search of French food when James yelled and pointed to something on a shelf which said "Escargot". "James, whats that?" I asked him, he smiled mischievously at me. "snails" he said cheekily. "eewh!" I said and James giggled, reaching for a tin of snails and putting them into the cart. "I like them" he said laughing.
once we had finished our shop, we went home and unpacked the groceries. I was about to cook dinner when Ed came in and wrapped his arms around my waist, resting his chin on my shoulder. "lets eat out" he said. I looked over at the clock and the wall and it said 6:11pm, just past dinner time. "okay" I whispered, turning my head to kiss him.
We got James dressed in something warm and took him out to a very nice restaurant in the center of London. It was huge with a chandelier in the middle of the roof and candles on the tables. The seats were satin red and they looked very comfortable.
"table for three please" Ed said at the main desk. The woman behind the desk smiled and pushed her glasses up her nose, "ahh Sheeran, brought along your little family have you?" The woman said, referring to James and I. "No Carla this is my girlfriend Lanie and James, we're looking after him" he said politely. "ahh well right this way" She said, taking us to a table set for three. We sat and ordered our food, James ordered a French meal that neither of us could pronounce, Ed ordered a chicken dish and I ordered medium rear steak and a Cesar salad.
The dinner was amazing, not only was the taste to die for, but the presentation was immaculate. After we ate, we sat around for a bit and James charmed one of the waitresses and she gave him a couple of lollipops for being so well behaved. After another half and hour we were ready to go home, We caught a taxi home and wandered lazily back inside. "well that was one way to start my London life" I sighed happily as we snuggled down to bed. "it was indeed" Ed said as he wrapped an arm around me, pulling me closer too him.
"maman, Daddy?" a little voice called out from the darkness of the hallway.James appeared in front of me and I jumped, wondering how he had moved so fast. "can I come in?" he said "its scary" he added as he climbed onto the bed. "yeah baby" I said as I lifted the covers for him to snuggle next to me. Ed kissed my neck and I shivered as electricity ran down my spine. "goodnight James" Ed said " Night daddy" the little voice whispered back.
