Jade's POV

Please be okay. Please be okay. Please be okay...

Fuuuck!... I never thought this evening could turn out like this. I woke up today, feeling like shit cuz #NewSingleLifeSucks, so I dressed up and went to Lee-Lee's, hoping for the best.

To be honest, I thought meeting with my girls would give me the clearness of mind and the strength I needed to go back to Jordan or just deciding to leave him for good... but then Perrie swoop in with her news and wrecked my plans, completely. Like what the fuck was she thinking?!

But anyway. Right now, I didn't care how shocked, confused and annoyed I was minutes ago due Perrie's attitude. All I can think about is them, Perrie and the baby... well, them, and the fact I'm worried my fight with Perrie affected them somehow. Also, I'm afraid of her determination, and the uncertainty of their future.

I've been pacing up and down through the waiting room, and even it's only been a few minutes, it feels like an eternity.

"Hey!"

I heard a soothing, familiar voice calling me behind my back, so I turned around: it was Debbie, Perrie's mam; she came straight to me and engulfed me in a very needed warm hug.

"Oh, baby... are you okay?" she asked in my ear.

Her voice was so calm and her arms so comforting I almost tear up right there. But I'm a big girl, so I didn't.

"No, I- I'm okay. It's... it's Perrie" I hurried to respond. I tried to be gentle on breaking her daughter's news to her, but my shaky voice revealed my nervous state. Still, I continued: "she fainted, and they woke her up on the ambulance, but she was still dizzy. The paramedics said she was probably fine, but they wanted to make sure" I summarized to her.

"It's alright" she nodded. "And have you eaten yet?" she asked me with her hands on my shoulders. I have no idea how she was this calm.

"No" I told her, and looked up at the realization: "and neither has Perrie. Maybe that's why she fainted!"

"Maybe, but I'm sure she is being taken cared of right now" she told me, linking her arm with mine. "Let's go to the cafeteria, shall we?"

"... what?!"

"You need to eat something" she argued. "And so does Perrie, so let's go get her some food".

"But..." I babbled. "Wait! We shouldn't leave this area! What if they call us?" I said, and she looked at me with this look... as if she was somehow pleased cuz I said exactly what she was expecting for me to say. Weird.

"In that case, I'm sure they'll manage to find us" she solved. "Come on!"

We walked to this little cafe area that sold food to doctors and the patients' families; Debs bought three boxes of chicken club sandwiches with chips, a bottle of water and two cups of tea.

By this time, I figured out she and the girls had probably agreed for them to stay at Leigh's. After all, it wasn't a good idea to drag Leigh-Anne to the cold seats of the hospital, not in her condition. Also, we all together could attract more attention, and that was not what we wanted.

"You should eat something" Debbie told me, pulling me out of my thoughts, once we were sitting at one of the tables of this little cafeteria.

"I'm good..." I mumbled. I wasn't feeling that hungry.
