Little broken birds {ed sheeran & One direction fanfiction}

Chapter 4

We hung around with Zayn and Perrie for a while, chatting about this and that. Then Liam spotted us and walked over to introduce Danielle.

“Hey Izzy” he gave me a hug “I don’t think you’ve met Danielle. Danielle, this is Isabella, Niall’s cousin.” I shook her hand. “It’s great to finally meet you. This is my best friend Cloe.”

Danielle shook her hand and Liam gave her a big hug. “Great to meet you Cloe. We’ve all heard so much about you!" he exclaimed before letting her go.

"Izzy! Us girls all need to hang out more!” Stated Danielle. I smiled and nodded in agreement.

“Have you guys seen Niall? I wanted to wish him a happy birthday.”

“He’s either at the bar, or dancing with Ali.” Liam replied.

“Ali?”

Liam raised his eyebrows mischievously. “So he hasn’t told you? He met her a couple weeks ago, they were just friends at first but then they completely fell for each other. If you ask me they’re perfect for each other and he really cares about her.” I smiled.

“And they’re such a cute couple!” added Danielle, so enthusiastically that I giggled.

“Thanks guys. I guess I’ll see you around later.” I walked over to the bar and ordered two vodka and cokes for me and clo.

“This is so surreal!” she yelled above the music.

I laughed, “Yeah, it seemed really weird at first to me as well. But I’ve got used to them now.” I said.

Then I asked her the question I’d been worried about since telling her about the party; “how are you gonna react when I introduce you to Harry in a bit?”

she laughed “I think I’ll be fine, help me out if I freeze on the spot though. Nudge me or something.” We both giggled. Harry had always been her favourite; she had a massive crush on him.

“Speak of the devil, sure to appear” I whispered when harry came over and tapped me on the shoulder.

“Hello Izzy. Where you two girls talking about me then?” I gave him a hug.

“Nah, why on earth would we talk about you?” he just chuckled.

Then he looked at Cloe “who’s your beautiful friend here?” I elbowed him in the rib. “You’re such a womaniser!” I joked.

He faked looking hurt. “This is my friend Cloe; she’s a big fan of you guys.” He held out his hand to Chloe and she gladly shook it. “Nice to meet you Cloe. I’m gonna go find Niall, but I’ll catch up with you girls later.” He winked at Cloe and walked off.

“I think he likes you!” she was blushing.

Suddenly someone caught her eye over my shoulder, I was about to turn around but she stopped me.

“Look, I probably should have warned you, but Niall told me to keep it a secret. We both know how much you like him so he thought it would be nice if you were surprised that he was here.”

I looked at her asking what she was talking about. “Cloe, what are you….”

But someone tapped me on the shoulder. 

So I turned around, to find myself looking into the beautiful green-blue eyes, of Edward Christopher Sheeran.
