"Life isn't perfect, but every second with you is"

---

When I wake up the next morning I can hardly contain my excitement.

The sun is streaming in through my windows, blinding my eyes Everytime I look up, but I smile at the fact the suns out,

The first thing I do is check my phone for messages, surprised to see I have 5,

G: Have fun today, love you xxx

G: Make sure you text me when you get there??

G: xxx

And then I find 2 from Kayla.

K: I'm so sorry for what I'm about to say :(

K: I can't come to Ed Sheeran today, something's come up :( Im sure you'll find someone to go with though, love you have a fab time xxxx

I re read the message over and over again, trying my hardest not to cry with a mixture of sadness, anger and disappointment,

My stomach flips inside me and I swallow hard, typing out a reply,

L: Ok, thanks x

The bluntness is blatant but I don't care, she knows how much this meant to me. What could've come up that's that important to be an exception to ditching me?!

The anger inside me takes over and I clench my fists, letting the tears spill over my cheeks.

There's no way I'm going to this concert alone, no way on earth.

So I do the only thing I can think of, I text Chris,

L: You free today???x

A reply comes through almost instantly,

C: Yeah think so, why?x

L: Kayla's ditched me so Ive got a spare ticket to ed sheeran in London for a concert tonight, wanna come??x

C: No way!! Of course I wanna come!!!

I smile excitedly at his text, the anger slowly being replaced with happiness again,

L: Cool :) Meet you at the station for 12?

C: You got it :D x

"Ahhhhhhh!"

As soon as I meet Chris at the station I can no longer contain my excitement, and squeal into his arms as we hug,

"I'm so excited!" I grin, "I even have my ed sheeran bracelet on"

"It's gonna be good!" Chris laughs, "I was listening to my Ed Sheeran playlist on my way here to learn lyrics"

"I know all of them off by heart" I announce proudly, glaring at Chris when he laughs at me,

"So who got you the tickets then? Christmas present I'm guessing?"

"George got me them as a surprise" I blush, "He knows how much I love ed"

"That's cute"

"I know, I'm so happy!"

He laughs and we buy our train tickets, walking over the bridge to the right platform,

"You're such a fangirl Lacy"

"Only for ed sheeran" I giggle, "you're excited too though, right?!"

He sighs, "Yes but I don't get why we're leaving so early if it doesn't start till 6"
