After work I drive to my apartment. As I drive I plan on going to the reception and ask if this guy named Ed lives in this building.
I park my car and walk in. I see the receptionist and smile looking at her. I walk upto her and greet her.
"Hey" I say.
"Hello. How may I help you?"
"Does anyone named Ed live in this building?" I ask.
"I'll have to check. Just gimme a minute."
"Okay." I say as she goes through her computer.
"What is his last name?" Shit. I have no idea.
"I don't know. He just happens to be a friend of my colleague so I just wanted to meet him." I say. Not a single thing I say is a lie.
"Um, okay. There are two guys living together named Edward Styles and Ed Sheeran." Edward Styles? Styles? That's Harry's last name. Is Harry and this Edward the same person? Wait. Ed. Yes, I found him.
"What's the full name of Edward Styles?" I ask.
"Edward Styles. That's it." Okay. Other people can also have Styles as a surname right?
"Can I please get the apartment number?"
"Yeah sure. It's 4/B."
"Thank you so much." I say smiling.
"My pleasure." She says and I walk away waving at her.
I reach my apartment and take a warm shower. I put on jeans with a plain navy blue t-shirt and pair of boots. I run my hand through my hair thinking about what I'm going to do just now.
I am gonna go to Ed's apartment. But why? You cannot just show up at someone'shouse you don't even know. My subconscious tells me. Sure I don't know him but something is going on. And I have a feeling that I'm involved in this. I don't know why but I'm sure as hell that I'm somehow related to think whole situation.
I take a deep breathe and walk out of my apartment. This Ed is the friend Harry comes to meet. I'm pretty sure this Ed is also Halsey's friend. That means Harry and Halsey must know each other. The fact that's bothering me is why are they trying to hide it from me. Why can't I know that they all are friends and related? That's what making me more curious. Are they hiding the fact only from me or everyone else? If yes then why?
4/B. I've reached Ed's apartment. I take a deep breathe before ringing the bell. I have no idea what I'm getting myself into. I hear footsteps coming towards the door. The door will open any minute now. But it doesn't. I walk closer to the door and hear ruffling sounds and some mumblings. Then again the footsteps. Finally the door opens and I'm surprised to see the person who opens the door.
"Halsey?" I say furrowing my eyebrows.
"Natalie. What are you doing here?"
"I came here to meet Ed. He's actually friends with my colleague Harry."
"Oh I see." She says nodding her head.
"You're still here? I thought you just left." I ask.
"Oh. I actually forgot my purse and I just came to take it back." She is clearly lying.
"May I come in?" I ask.
"Oh, sorry. Yeah sure." I walk inside the house looking around.
"Here, take a sit. Um, do you want coffee or tea?" She asks.
"Coffee. Thanks."
"I'll be right back." She says and walks to the kitchen. After a few minutes she comes back with two cups of coffe.
"Thank you." I say.
"Not a problem at all."
"This is Ed's apartment right?" I ask taking a sip from my coffee.
"Yeah. He's not home right now. We left together but I forgot my purse so I had to come back." She says.
"That red- headed guy with you before is Ed?" I ask.
"Um, yeah." She says hesitating.
"Do you know Harry?" I blurt out. Just as I ask that I hear a mumbling noise from the bedroom I guess. From the look on Halsey's face she also heard it but quickly answers to prevent me from questioning the sound.
"Uh, which Harry? I know a lot of Harry's actually." She says.
"Harry Styles."
"Um, yeah. I don't know him. I just met him maybe once or twice on a few parties thrown by Ed." She explains.
"Oh. Do you know when Ed is coming back? I was really looking forward to meet him." I say.
"I don't think he'll be back anytime soon. He said he's going to meet his uncle out of town. He might be there for a week or two." I'm pretty sure Ed is in the bedroom right now. Why not confirm it?
"Oh. You're a reallygood friend of his. Why don't you show me around his house? I'm sure it's similar to my apartment but still." I say.
"Um, he actually locked his bedroom and the storeroom before leaving. So the only place to look around is the kitchen and this living room." Okay. I'm guessing Ed is hiding in the bedroom while Harry in the storeroom.
"Oh. You have the key to his house?"
"Yeah. Me and um, another friend of his hasthe key to his house." She says.
"Edward?"
"Yeah. How did you know?"
"Somehow. Anyways, did you know Harry once used to live with Ed?" I say.
"Well kinda."
"Then how do you meet only once or twice if he lived with Ed who happens to be a really good friend of yours? I mean you have a key to his house so it's practically your house too." I ask firmly.
"What are you trying to imply here?" She asks taken aback by my question.
"It's just tha-" I'm interrupted by my phone ringing. I look at the caller ID and seriously Niall, couldn't you find a better time to call? I decline the call.
"Anyways Natalie, I have to go now. It was nice talking to you." Halsey says as soon as I look up at her.
"Okay and same. Hope to talk to you soon." I say with a smirk on my face before walking towards the door. When I walk out the door I turn around to look at Halsey.
"Let Ed know I came to meet him. Oh sorry, he already knows since he's hiding in the bedroom of his own apartment." I say loud enough for all three of them to hear.
Is it too late now to say sorry?
Yeah,it is.
