Newfound Grace

Taylor -

I turned on the TV. I had forgotten "Nine Days and Nights of Ed Sheeran" was on. I got a blanket and a cup of tea. Olivia and Meredith jumped on the couch and we watched.

I texted Ed and said "hey, watching your show." and he replied almost instantly. "oh cool. me too. can't wait for the 4th. should I bring Grahm?" "YES!!! triple cat play date time!" I laughed. I missed these conversations in person. We texted until 3 am my time. Ed was always up.

When I went to bed I had a dream about meeting up with Ed at the airport. I wonder what he's dreaming about. I envisioned a hug. Maybe he would peck me on the cheek. Friendly of corse. Then I would drive him to my house, and he would make fun of my "no trespassing" sign. I sighed.

When I woke up my phone was ringing. I ignored it. Who's calling Ed? It rang again. I decided it was important and picked it up. Austin. "Hello? Why are you waking me up? What is this about? How many times have you called?" "Hello. Because I need to tell you something. It's about Mom and Dad. Eight." "WHAT HAPPENED TO MOM AND DAD!?" I asked frantically. "Taylor, nothing happened to them. They've both decided something. Meet them in the Bluebird Cafe at noon." "Why?" "We have a surprise." "Okay bye Austin." I hung up and checked my clock. "ELEVEN THIRTY WHAT THE HELL AUSTIN!" I scream-yelled. I ran to my closet and put on a dress. I walked out the front door to my New York apartment. Forgetting makeup.
