Zander was fast asleep next to me,I looked at him for a while,then I sat up too look say my foot,it was bandaged and it hurt a little.I latest back down softly and turned to look at zander,he looked majestic sleeping,do I know why no but he looked graceful, and at peace.His eyes fluttered open.".....your up."I nodded.He kissed me on the cheek."you feelen' better"I nodded again.He put his other arm around my waist and locked his hands together.
"What time is it?"
"About..." he checked his watch."5:37!"
"What's wrong?"
"Were late."
"What for?"
"Haily!"he yelled we both sat up.She ran in.
"Yah."
"We're going to be late come on move move move!"
"OK OK calm down!"she said all Australian like.
"WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT?"I shouted
They both ignored me haily grabbed my wrist and dragged me to our room.She drug me into a huge walk in closet and rustled through the rack.She pulled out a beautiful cream flowey long dress with a long slit on the leg and a LOT of sparkles."don't just stand there get changed Oh and I'll kind your shoes."On the very top shelf there was a matching pair of shoes,and she grabbed them."put these on too I still have to do your hair and make-up you gotta be there at 6:30!"
"Be where?"
"You'll see,get changed." I quickly pulled the dress on and the shoes she pulled me to a lit up mirror and sat me in the chair in front of it.She quickly brushed my hair and did it up in an elegant updo.Then she spun me around and used a black shadow so I figured I was going to look like an over-dooed freak,then she turned me around and I looked like I thought I never could before.Beautiful. "do not let zander see you it's a surprise"
"Got it."
"Go to the black limo"
"Got it"
For once I felt like I'm going to make him very happy.She made sure the coast was clear and then she sent me through the house and into the limo.The limo took me to the beach.The limo stopped and the door."miss Flatt."
"And who are you you beautiful stranger?"
"kertz, zander kertz"
"Why are you doing this zander "he offered me his arm,of course,I took it.
"I wanted to give you a little taste of home." He said with a sweet smile."You know if you weren't in that limo I wouldn't have reconized you."
I stopped smiling "is that bad?"
"Are you kidding?Thats great"
"So you want me to stay like this"
"I'm saying your the most beautiful the way you are."
Then we started walking and I saw the camera flashes, fake paparatzi,cute.We did a bunch of cute little couple pozes. Then the carpet led to a stage in front of a lot of tables."Hungry?"
"Why,Mr kertz how flattering."
"Not as flattering as you my dear."I giggled.He sat me eyes the most beautiful table with a lace tablecloth and the most high quality silver wear.Zander pulled out my chair and I sat down then he pushed me in.
"Zander I didn't used to live in great Britten with the queen you know."
"But your my princess either way"I giggled again,wow,how romantic is this guy?Then that's when the stage curtain opened and there was a band (I don't know who) sang a song about us finding love apon air and wonderful things like that.
"This was the most wonderful entertainment I've ever had Mr.kertz. "
He laughed "are you kidding this is just the opening act."I looked at him confused but he just smiled at me so I half smiled back.Then they left the stage,that's when I saw the orange hair."zander how did you?"I couldn't even speak.
"My uncle works with him and he was coming to Australia anyway so he tried to get him to come here for you."
Then I couldn't even pay attention to what the person onstage was saying,I was so surprised then I got to hear him sing live for the very first time(thinking out loud,my favorite of his songs)"zander when I regain my sanity then I'll actually know what to do with you but now,I feel like I'm going to faint."He laughed then I took a drink of the mystery beverage in front of me,coke, exactly what I needed.
"this couldn't be better,you,me,if I say his name your probably going to pass out."I nodded trying not to cry because of how happy I was.(and the black make up would probably get all over the dress wich I guessed was really expensive)Then after about a half hour he stopped said goodnight to everyone and walked behind the little stage.Then my chair was pulled out from behind me,and zander had his hand extended so I could take it.I did,then he started pulling me towards the stage.I dug my feet into the sand there was no way I was going back there to embarrass myself in front of The ed sheeran.
"No,zander please no."Then he picked me up against my will.Then he carried me backstage,
"Hi guys "he said.
".....uh"That's about all I could say.He looked at zander.
"She got nervous."
"Oh" he laughed.
"Um.....yah....OK....uh.... "
"Kim it's OK calm down"Zander said.
"OK....zander can you put me down please."he put me down."uh hi"I tried to say hi in the most respectful way.
"hi"he said calmly.
"May we ask some questions?"zander asked.
"Go ahead."Then zander looked at me.The truth is I have more than a million questions to ask him,but I asked the one I think about the most,
"which one of your songs is the most inspiring to you?"he told me the answer to my question, and then we asked some more questions said thank-you then I shook his hand and turned to leave as I turned back around he was whispering something to zander. Hmmmm,zander and his secrets.I just stood there patiently waiting. Zander eventually jogged up to me
"bye guys" I smiled and waved back to him,as soon as we got about 10 feet away from the little stage I started jumping and screaming,
"I JUST TALKED TO ED SHEERAN!!!!!"I continued screaming, "Oh my gosh I love you!"I finally realized what I just said,"uh... sorry."
"You have no idea how much I've wanted you to say that."Then he kissed me.I smiled I knew I was in love with him before but I haven't had the courage to say it.He stopped.
"Where was I?"
"You were screaming."
"Oh Well than..."I paused " I JUST TALKED TO ED SHEERAN!!!!!!"I continued screaming and jumping up and down and zander just half smiled.Then pain seared up my uncle,I just remembered that I was jumping up and down in 5 inch heals.I collapsed "ow ow ow ow "
"Are you OK?!"
"Yah I think I twisted my ancle"He picked me up."I'm feeling better already."he did a little sigh/laugh.I put my arms around his neck.He twirled me around.
"I was going to dance with you but you hurt your foot."
"Dang it."
"Come on let's go"
"OK."he carried me in to the limo and it was all dark,why didn't the limo driver turn the lights on."I can't see anything"
"You don't have to"he said as he found my lips in the darkness.
