CHAPTER 5: TREACHEROUS (PART 2)

"Hey" Taylor said, walking up to Ed and Harry.

"Hi." Ed and Harry said in sync. There was an awkward silence.

"So, why are you here?"

"I came to see the show!" Harry answered, trying to lift the mood.

"Oh." Another awkward silence.

"Um, Taylor, I kinda wanna talk to you alone." Harry said. "Can we talk in your dressing room?"

Taylor looked at Ed. He shrugged.

"I'll be back Ed." she said and walked into her dressing room with Harry. Ed couldn't help but wonder what was being said in there. He waited near the door for about 10 minutes, then Taylor finally came out. She grabbed Ed's arm and pulled him towards CLUB RED.

"Come on Ed" she said, her voice trembling.

Ed turned around and watched as Harry walked out the stadium with his head down and his hands in his pockets. He must not have wanted to be seen at a Taylor Swift concert. The Press would eat him alive.

"What's wrong, Tay?"

"Nothing" she said keeping her head down to hide her face.

"Taylor." he said, lifting her chin up. He saw tears threatening to fall.

"Taylor." he said again. "I'm your best friend, you can tell me anything."

She sighed. "I'll tell you later" she said, removing his hands from her face and pulling him towards Club RED again. As soon as she walked in, a smile appeared on her face. Her swifties always made her happy. She walked in and took pictures, signed autographs, and answered tons of questions. Soon, it was time to leave and Taylor and Ed hugged every swiftie goodbye. They then made their way towards the tour bus.

"Race you there." Taylor said before taking off.

"Hey!" Then Ed raced after her. Taylor made it there first, Ed following close behind. They laughed and fell onto Ed's bed.

"I'm gonna take a shower" Taylor said before getting up and making her way to her room to get some clothes.

"Me too" Ed said and he did the same. They each took showers and went into the mini- kitchen to make some pizza rolls. They finished them up quickly and Ed went in their rooms to get their guitars. He brought them back to the floor they were sitting on.

"You go first" Ed said.

"Alright," She thought about it, then started playing Treacherous.

Put your lips close to mine, as long as they don't touch.

Out of focus, eye to eye, 'til the gravity's too much.

And I'll do anything you say, if you say it with your hands.

And I'd be smart to walk away, but you're quick sand.

Ed stared at Taylor while she sang. She looked so....real. Like everything she was saying came completely from the bottom of her heart. He admired that. He snapped back to reality when he realized she was crying.

"Taylor, what's wrong?"

She sniffed. "Harry wants to get back together with me."

Ed looked shocked. Last time he checked, Harry wanted nothing to do with her anymore, why the sudden change of heart?

"Ed, what do I do?"

He hugged her tightly, wrapping his arms around her body, her head on his chest. He looked into her eyes.

"You watch Shrek movies with me until you fall asleep" he said.

She giggled. They got up, grabbed their guitars, and headed to Ed's room to watch some Shrek.
