I Never Saw You Coming

Chapter Seven

Taylor's POV

I awoke to the sound of my phone vibrating shortly on the nightstand in my tour bus, singling I had received a text. I sat up and realized I was still in the clothes I had worn the day before. I thought back to yesterday, and remembered falling asleep on Ed's shoulder, and now I'm here. Someone must've carried me here and laid me down, because I don't remember coming into the tour bus at all. I smiled, imagining Ed pick me up and carry me into the tour bus.

I grabbed my phone off of the nightstand and turned it on. One new message from...Harry? I unlocked my phone and read it.

Taylor, what's up with you and Ed?!

That's odd, he knows we're just friends. What's he thinking about? I responded shortly.

?

He seemed to have been waiting with his phone in his hand, because he shot back almost immediately.

Don't pretend you don't know.

What is it I don't know? He sent another text shortly after.

I saw your post to Twitter last night, I know you guys spent the day together.

This is so weird! Harry and I aren't together anymore, why does it matter? I know he and Ed are friends, but...

So we did. At Disney. Why do you care?

I stood and paced my bedroom, unsure of what was going on. I looked out the window and noticed the quickly passing scenery, so I guess we're moving.

Because...

Because I love you.

He sent it in two separate texts, as if to make it sound meaningful. I rolled my eyes and sighed.

Well, I don't love you anymore. Ed and I are just friends, but you have no right to tell me how to live my life. Get out of it.

I hope he just drops it already, I'm just now getting over him.

I can't, I'm already on a bus to come see your show tonight.

I burst into tears. He was gonna be there tonight? Why would he come?

Please don't. Please.

I felt terrible, and hoped my begging text would change his mind, maybe he could find something, anything, else to do tonight besides come to my show.

We can work this out, Taylor. I'll come tonight, and everything will be okay.

He said, as if trying to calm me down. I felt like I needed to kick something, to scream out or yell.

No! It won't be alright, because YOU will be there. I don't want to talk to you, I don't want to see you.

I hoped sending him very clear messages of just how much I don't want him there will get him to change his mind.

We'll see about that tonight. Hopefully you can change your mind. Talk to you later, Tay. I love you. x

I was infuriated.

I won't change my mind. I DONT love you. Goodbye.

I sent, and fell back onto my bed in tears. What was I going to do? I picked up my phone and called Caitlin.

"Hey Tay, what's up?" She asked groggily.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I must've woken you up." I apologized.

"No, it's ok. What's going on?"

"Harry texted me...he's coming to the show tonight. He said that he saw my Twitter post yesterday and I guess he decided he needed to come and check on me or something. He was like 'what's going on with you and Ed?' And I was just so...frustrated!" I said, now crying. "Nothing's going on, we're just friends, and even if something was going on, Harry wouldn't have the right to say anything, because we aren't together anymore!" I screamed, bawling.
