CHAPTER 40: CHICKEN AND CHIPS

~TAYLOR'S POINT OF VIEW~

I know Ed's probably nervous about being a dad and all but I wish he'd let me process all of this first. He isn't wrong, though. There is something I'm worried about but I can't tell him yet. It might ruin our relationship. I'll tell him soon enough, but now's not the time.

While I'm lying down in my bed, I think of all the wonderful things that are in store for me having a baby.

If it's a girl, I can dress her up in pretty dresses. And she can come to me for boy advice. I scoff at that. Love advice from Taylor Swift? I could also teach her to play guitar, or the piano. I could still do that if we have a boy but I much rather have a girl to share my experiences with. Me and Ed are also pretty good artists so our child would inherit a lot of talent. I'm imagining what our baby would look like when Ed comes into the room.

"Hey, Blondie."

"Hey, Chuckie." I pat the bed beside me, signaling him to sit down, which he does.

"I'm sorry for getting mad at you earlier. I just want to settle down right now and get my head straight. I really didn't mean it."

He smiled at me softly, "It's alright, I'm sorry for pestering you."

"Come 'ere Teddy", I say, holding my arms out for a hug.

He's like a huge bear and I love it :)

~ED'S POINT OF VIEW~

Since me and Taylor found out the news, we haven't really told anyone. Taylor wants to wait but I think we should tell our parents as soon as possible. She's still acting weird about the baby but I decide to brush it off.

"Taylor, when's the last time you've seen my parents?"

"While we were on tour", she calls back from the kitchen where she's making dinner. I don't know how she's gonna manage being on tour while having this baby. It's gonna be a load of stress, I'm sure, but her fans will understand.

"Well what do you think of visiting them while you're in the UK? They really want to see you."

"Of course, that sounds awesome!"

I'm gonna try to tell them about Taylor. She might be mad but I want to get all of this over with. Taylor comes out the kitchen with a tray of chicken and chips. She's always trying to make me real meals like what you'd expect from a fancy restaurant or something but I assured her that I'm fine with normal stuff like pizza or whatever.

"I hope chicken and fries is "normal" enough for you."

"Yes it is. I hope my poor diet isn't bothering you or anything", I say sarcastically. She hit my arm playfully.

"Shut up, Ed."
