TAYLOR'S POV:

  "Why are you apologizing?" I mumble, my arms wrapped weakly around Ed.

  If anything I really didn't want him seeing me like this: In my cat pj's, red slippers, no makeup, my hair messily laying around my shoulders.

  "I'm just sorry," Ed mumbles still hugging me.

    "You're confusing me," I force a small laugh, leaning my head slightly on his shoulder. It felt so good just to be hugged. 

  "You're a good hugger." I mumbled, more to myself praying he didn't hear it.  

"I like hugs," he answers, simply.

  Poop. He heard me.

  I'm the first to pull away. I want to know why he's here at this time of night.  

"Come inside." I mumble, motioning him to follow me. We end up in the living room.

  "So," I start as I sit cross-legged at the end of the couch, Ed on the opposite end. "I wasn't really expecting guests. Sorry if I'm a bit underdressed. "  

"You look nice," he smiles, his dimples making an appearance.  

I feel the heat rush to my cheeks, trying to hide it, I look around.  "Hey Mere." I mumbled as the small cat plopped down on to my lap. 

  I was disappointed when she took little interest in me and trotted over to Ed.  

I was surprised to see Ed start petting Meredith.  

"I have a cat," he started, "Her name's Bellini." 

  I smiled, "That's Meredith." I nodded my head towards the cat that nested onto Ed's knee.  

For the next half an hour, Ed and I talked about cats.

  +++++

  4 hours of watching classic movies had gone by in a flash, with little conversation between Ed and I.  

After finishing our third movie; The Titanic, Ed cleared his throat.  

"It's quite late," He yawned, "I reckon that I should go. We could both use some rest,"

  I nodded, "yeah." And stood, escorting Ed to the door.

  "Ed?" I asked, as he grabbed his coat from it's spot on the hook hanging from the wall.

"Hmm?" He mumbled, pulling his left arm into his sleeve. I took a deep breath,

  "Why'd you come here?"   

ED'S POV:  

"Oh," I stopped, putting my coat on, and gave my attention to the topic. "Well I saw your performance, and thought you might need a friend right now." I  scratched the back of my head looking awkwardly at the ground. "And I haven't seen you in a while." I smiled at her slightly, "I guess I just wanted to see if you're okay."   

"Well," A small smile spread across her lips,  "I'm better now, thank's to you." She paused , "As cliche as that sounds."

I smiled, "It's not cliche." She opens the door for me to get out. 

  As I walk out of the flat and towards the driveway I remembered something.  

"Taylor!" I yell as the door is almost completely closed.   

"Yeah?" She called back, opening the door.

  "You know you can trust me with anything," I smile at her.    It was true. I'm the type of guy that can keep a secret. Well it's not like I have anyone to tell anyway. I'm an awkward, quiet guy. Well until you get to know me. 

  "Thank you." She was quite but, then spoke up, "If you ever need someone to talk to..." She points to her self.  

I nod. "Thanks."  

+++++  

You never experienced discomfort until you go from your own bed to a hotel bed.

  After a restless half hour of trying to get comfortable I eventually fell asleep in some strange position that was surprisingly cozy.
