You are not what you look like.

Chapter 1

*Melanie's POV*

I took out my camera, and turned it on immediately.

"Hello everybody! Today I'm here with my best friend, Ed Sheeran" I say to the camera.

I started my YouTube videos back when I was 17, and I'm currently 19. I would post a cover of a song, or a vlog, and soon people started to watch and enjoy my videos. That's what led me to having 2,000,000 subscribers. That's what also led me to having my very own tour, in America.

"Ed and I have some exciting news for all of you guys! Isn't that right, Ed?" I ask, looking at my red headed best friend.

"Yes we do. Do I say it?" He answers, his British accent more prominent than mine.

I nod, and he continues speaking to my camera.

"Well, Mel and I are going on a North American tour!" He yells, obviously excited.

This tour means the world to me. I've been singing since I was 5, and I met Ed when I was 4 back in day care. He calls me Mel, Melly, or Laney. They never caught on with my other friends but Ed seems to like the nicknames.

"Yes, but that's not it, tell them the rest!" I hurry him, not wanting to vlog too much today. After all, I still have to pack.

"Right, I almost forgot. The other news we have for you, is that Mel and I have already decided the name for the tour. Care to tell them, Mel?" Ed asks.

We always like to joke around and be silly in front of the camera. We speak professionally, but make fun of ourselves. Some people take it seriously, thinking it's because we're British.

"It's called Brighter. Which is also the name of my hit single." I say quickly.

Ed nods and we both say our goodbyes to the camera. I place it on my Mac book pro, to remind myself to edit the video and post it for the fans. Ed sits on my bed, and watches me while I grab some clothes out of my closet.

"Has Mark texted you today?" He asks, looking at my lit up phone.

I sigh, I hate talking about him.

"Sorry Laney, just asking." He shrugs and puts his hands up in surrender.

I laugh and shake my head.

"No it's fine Ed. But yes, he has texted me today. You ask that everyday and it's always the same answer." I explain, grabbing my flat iron and putting it next to my makeup in the luggage.

He sighs and takes out his phone, not even bothering to answer. I sigh as well, placing more clothes into my suitcase. Mark is my boyfriend, whom is very mad at me. I told him I would be going to America for my tour, expecting him to be happy. But I was terribly wrong. Instead he yelled at me got upset for having to leave. He begged me to have the tour in Britain, and even begged not having a tour. He sure has the nerve to text me he loves me after all the drama he's caused.

I look up at Ed and he's quietly laughing to himself.

"What's so funny?" I ask, trying to peer at his phone.

"The tour.." He whispered

I look at him confused. "What about it?"

"It's sold out."

(A/N: hey guys, so I know Harry isn't in this chapter but he most likely won't be until we reach chapter 3. So please be patient. The first two chapters are the "getting to know Mel and Ed" and also the "getting ready for the tour" type of chapters. Harry will appear soon! Please vote and comment, that helps me A LOT. thank you, I love you!)
