Skinny Love

Epilogue

"Hey babe!" Jade beemed through my computer screen,

"Hey"

"How have you been?"

"Good you?"

"Yeah good, we're in Florida, they're on tour"

"Yeah I saw"

"Can you get Addie?"

"Yeah, ADDIE"

"What?"

"Jades skyping"

"Hey" she wiped her forehead as she walked into the room,

"What's up?"

"Liam and I have some news!"

"What?"

"We're ... I'm preganant!"

"Shut up! Really!"

"Yeah!"

"Congratulations, who knows?"

"The band and you guys, our families"

"Wow when are you due?"

"December 1st"

"I can't believe it! I'm so excited!" Addie gushed,

"Yeah, we can't wait; they'll be finished tour by then so we have a few months off"

"Wow, congratulations babe"

"Iz are you ok?"

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"

"After everything ... you know?"

"Jade, the miscarriage, we couldn't take care of a baby back then anyway and I'm sad that it ended like that, I wish I had the choice but it wasn't meant to be and someday it will be, I'm happy for you"

"Thank you"

"Don't sweat it"

"I can't believe I'm saying goodbye to this apartment"

"I can't believe we're moving to London, I'm so excited" Addie squealed hugging me,

We had just graduated and my dad was letting us use the plane so we could get all our things back to the UK, I was scared but I was excited, I had turned my journals into stories and even managed to publish a book, I was excited because it was my first novel, it was special story to me and a way to get the feelings I had off my chest. I was still writing songs but I wanted to write, I had been doing it all my life and to have something I had written turned into a book that others enjoyed made me incredibly happy. I had sent demos of songs to different companies in London; if they got back to me they wanted the song for recording artist which would be incredible, if it actually happened.

Addie's parents had helped her find a job in London; she was going to work in a recording studio. We were scared but we knew it was right for us, she wanted to leave America and I wanted to be near my gramps.

After the gang left us it was hard to continue without them, it felt like there was only Sam, Addie and I left, I mean Anna was still here because she broke up with Louis after he left. Perrie left too, shortly after Zayn, following him out there, Sam and Ryan tried to work through it but they broke up about a year after. It wasn't the same, we didn't really party as much because we were still trying to find them in the crowd.

The miscarriage was something I never wanted to think about, it fucking hurt, I was so sad for about 6 months after they left, Addie was the one who pulled me through it. There was so much going on, my friends left and I lost a baby, it still feels weird thinking about it, I hate myself every day for not saying a word. It was when Jade's dad died that everything took a turn for the worst, I was off on my book tour and couldn't be there to support her, I was so sad, so was she but I helped to pull her through it because she was stronger than I ever could be. I'm so happy she's having a baby, I can't wait.
