"Reggie! Reggie wake up!" I blinked open my eyes and saw Flora leaning over my bed.

"Whoa what the fuck!" I exclaimed, shuffling backwards towards the wall. Flora blushed.

"I didn't mean to startle you, but Mr. Sheeran is down in the pub and he fancies speaking to you." Flora explained. I sat up and rubbed my eyes.

"Ed? Ed is here?" I said, staring right at the blond girl with tired, blinking eyes. Flora nodded.

"Best get yourself dishy." Flora said, walking out of the room. Dishy? I stared after her for a moment. Oh yeah. She means I need to make myself look good.

I crawled out of bed and pulled clothes out of my dresser. Four days had passed since I broke down in front of Ed. In that time, Ed had become my closest friend in London. Craig and I barely talked since he said those things to me. But I didn't care. He still hadn't apologize. I sighed and opened the dresser drawers.

At first, I took Flora's advice and pulled out a tank top, blouse, and jeans. Then I got lazy and put them back, pulling out a pair of sweatpants, an old Aeropostale shirt, and an Old Navy sweatshirt.

I slid those clothes on, put on my glasses, and went into the bathroom. After washing my face and doing other bathroom things, I went downstairs to the pub.

Sure enough, Ed was standing there at the bar, talking up a storm to David. Aw poor David! I thought, giggling. As if the two read my thoughts, they looked over at me. Okay that's creepy.

"Morning, Reggie." David said. I waved at him and lazily sat down next to Ed. Ed gave me an odd look. Maybe he doesn't want me sitting here...

"Sorry." I said, getting up from the stool. Ed's eyes widened.

"No no, its okay." Ed said. "You can sit if you want." I cautiously sat back down.

"Then why did you look at me like that?" I asked.

"Like what?" Ed gave me the look again.

"Like that!" I exclaimed. Ed smirked and glanced at David.

"I think she's gone bloody mad!" He said, jokingly. David nodded in agreement. I crossed my arms.

"You guys are real dickheads. Do you know that?" I asked. Ed shrugged, but David nodded.

"My friend Evan calls me a dickhead all the time!" David said. I laughed.

"Makes sense!" I said. I turned to Ed. "Anyways, Flora said you were looking for me?" Ed glanced at David, then looked at me, adjusting his glasses.

"I uh... I was wondering if uh..." Ed stammered, glancing at David again. "If you wanted to do something later." Ed smiled at me, clearly embarrassed. Did he just ask me out?

"Uh... Like what?" I asked. Ed shrugged.

"Maybe watch a movie or go to dinner?" Ed suggested. David coughed. We both looked at him.

"I suggest both." He said, simply. Then he walked away. Ed and I looked at each other again.

"Or both." He said. I giggled.

"I'd like that." I said. Ed blushed. I smiled.

"Okay well is there a movie you'd like to see?" He asked. I gave him a sly smile.
