My Addiction

My Addiction: Chapter Seven

"I want you to meet someone..Well, actually five someones."

"And who exactly are these five someones I'm going to be meeting?"

"You'll see." Ed said with an evil smirk.

"Five people? If I get murdered, I will so come back from the grave just to haunt you." Ed rolled his eyes, "Come on, we have to drive though because I am severely out of shape and I don't want to die."

I starred at him to see if he would show any signs that he was joking, which he did not. That actually caused me to burst into laughter about one minute after he said that so I probably seemed like a baby seal high on crack cocaine or something.

Ed's eyes got abnormally large and he starred at me with his mouth agape. Well, at least I think his mouth was open because my vision was kind of blurry because I was laughing so hard tears began to stream down my face. Ed looked more than slightly worried about me.

"Are you having a psychotic break or something?"

"You're just a very funny human sometimes, that's all." I said between outbursts of laughter.

"I guess the truth can be overly funny at times."

I very dramatically wiped away the tears that were on my face.

"So, are you ready to go?" I asked Ed.

"Yeah, let's go." Ed responded skeptically.

We began walking and crossed a street at one of the street lights. We walked up to a black SUV with the windows tinted black. Ed walked me over to the back seat. I raised an eyebrow at him and said "So is Casper the professional car driver going to be our chauffeur or?"

Ed looked at the ground and twiddled his thumbs. God it was adorable when he did that. "Well, um, you see, I dont exactly have my drivers license." I bursted out laughing for the second time that day and said "Seriously?"

"You know, maybe we will have to kill you when we get there."

"Where is 'there' exactly?"

"You'll see." Ed said smiling

The car pulled up to an extremely expensive looking hotel and parked in one of the spaces. I gawked at the hotel and just starred at it in amazment. I had only ever seen something as nice as this once, before my father went psycho and we were on a family vacation.

"Are you coming or do you want to sit in the car all day Analee?" Ed asked.

"Oh, I'm coming." I said getting out of the car a little too quickly and I stumbled into Ed who caught me right before I fell to the ground and wrapped his arms around my waist to support us both.

Ed glanced down and saw how close we were and his face turned the colour of his hair in two seconds flat. He released his arms from around me  and took a few steps back. His shoes seemed to be very interesting to him, and his hand was massaging the back of his neck. "Sorry." Ed and I said at the same time.

We both looked up at each other and smiled. "We should probably go." Ed said gesturing to the front of the hotel. I nodded and we walked to the hotel's very fancy entrance way.

When we got into the hotel I gasped in admiration at the expensive decor. There were water fountains, and fancy restraunts, with unbelievable furniture to sit a while you waited to check in. Ed laughed at my astonishment. He leaned down so his mouth was level with my ear and he said quietly, "I don't think it's nice to stare Analee." Just those few words had the power to send shivers up and down my spine. I elbowed him lightly without even turning to look at him since I was still flabergasted at the hotel.

We walked over to an elevator and when we were inside Ed pushed the number 16. Oh, did I mention that the hotel was probably as big as the Hogwarts castle, if not bigger? Well it was.

"So, um, who exactly are these five people that I'm going to meet right now?" Ed laughed and said "Well they are five guys, and they are a bit, out there." Ed said struggling to find the right words to describe these people that I did not know.

"Well I still don't know who they are."

"They're really good friends of mine and I think you'll take an imediate fancy to them."

"Ed! Who the hell am I meeting?" I said exasperatedly since I was getting extremelly frustrated at his lack of an answer that was suitable to me.

Just then the elevator dinged and the doors opened, revealing a beautifully long corridor.

Ed looked down at me, and our eyes met, "Have you heard of One Direction?"
