The next few days were a drag. Since I was working, I didn't get to spend much time with Ed. Luckily, it was now Sunday. I had a few hours to get through then I got to spend a week straight with him and I couldn't wait. The wedding party seemed to be running on time, so I would be out faster than planned.
Hey, babe. I'll be done with this in about an hour. Then I'm all yours x
Oooh I can't wait, are you coming directly here? x
I'm going to stop home, get some clothes and things and then I'll be over. :)
Sounds good, babe. Bring enough stuff for the whole week. I'm not letting you leave x
Sure thing :) I'll see you in a bit love x
See you soon baby x
Once I finished the wedding make up, I was out. I ran home and got my things then it was off to Ed's. I was so excited. When I was with him, it's like the rest of the world didn't exist. I was happy and comfortable. It was nice.
When I pulled up to the house, Ed didn't greet me at the door, but my phone went off.
Hey babe. I had to run out quick, a meeting, but I'll be home soon. Just go in and make yourself comfortable, keys under the mat x
I went in and put my stuff inside Ed's bedroom. It wasn't until I was finished unpacking that I realized I was exhausted. I decided to lay down in his bed and watch a movie while I waited for him to come home. About three hours later, I was woken with a kiss. "Hey, beautiful. Were you sleepy?" I heard a familiar voice saying. My eyes fluttered open to see two beautiful blue ones staring back. I gave a shy smile, "Yes, I guess so. What time is it?" Teddy checked his watch, "About 3." I could feel my eyes widen, "yikes. I guess I really was tired. Did you just get home?" He nodded, "Yeah, the meeting ran a bit late. We wanted to go over everything for Wembley before it got here." I nodded, "Oh, okay. Well, what's on the agenda for tonight?" He leaned in and kissed my forehead, "It seems to me that you need your rest, so I'll call for some Pizza Express and we will lay in bed, eat a whole pizza and watch re-runs of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, yeah?" I smiled, a man of my own heart. "Yeah, that sounds perfect."
Ed left the room to call for pizza. A few minutes later he returned with two beers and several DVD's. "How was work today?" He asked. "It was good. Weddings make me sappy," I said with a laugh. "Me too. I can't wait to get married. I just think it's such a beautiful thing, ya know?" He replied. Oh no. Does he already want to marry me? "Yeah, same. But at the same time I don't want to rush into anything. I want to make sure that I marry the right person. I almost married the wrong one once and I don't want that to happen again," I said, explaining the thoughts in my head. Teddy smiled and kissed my forehead, "Well, of course. Marriage is forever. No one should rush into something like that without being sure." Good, we're on the same page.
"When do you think would be the perfect time to get married?" He asked. I thought about it for a minute, "Honestly, there is no perfect time. I feel like once I know that I have the person I want to spend the rest of my life with and they agree, it will happen. But I'm hoping it will be before the time I'm 26. That's the age I want to start having kids." He smiled, "Yeah, I agree. I mean, I can be a little older if needed. But by 26 would be ideal." He's 24 so 26 is coming a lot sooner for him. What if this is it? What if we stay together? God, what a thought. A scary, scary thought. "Big or small wedding?" He asked. "Medium. Not too big, not too small. I don't want the whole world there but at the same time, I don't want it too small either," I replied. "Yeah, same. Though, I will have to film some of it for my fans, they want to be involved in these kinds of things, ya know?" He explained. He is so sweet to them. "That's very sweet of you. You're so good to them," I said. He smiled, a big, genuine smile, "I try. It's just…I wouldn't be where I am if it weren't for them. They deserve the world."
"How do they react when you introduce a new love interest?" I asked out of curiosity. "It depends on if they like her or not, honestly. But usually they get excited. They make blogs, follow them on social media, swarm them with love. It's definitely an adjustment for the girl," he explains. I could handle that, right? "Oh, yeah, that makes sense." "Do you want to become public? Like social media, fans public?" He asked, seriously. I smiled, "I wouldn't mind it. But that would mean we're serious, right?" He nodded, "Yes. We are serious, aren't we?" I thought about it and smiled, "Yeah, I guess we are. But Teddy?" "Yeah Kels?" He asked. "Let's not rush, okay? I just got out of a really long relationship and I don't want to rush. I want to take this slow. I don't want to get hurt," I explained, nervously. He laughed, "Yes, babe. Of course. For the record though, I will never intentionally hurt you. I promise." I smiled, "Good." The door bell rang and Ed hopped out of bed and ran downstairs.
When he came back up he was carrying pizza. It was his favorite kind from Pizza Express. We actually ended up eating the whole thing. We spent the rest of the night in bed, talking until we fell asleep. This was definitely something I could get used to.
