Fractured (kendall jenner x gigi hadid)

Kendall stood at her old front door with the keys in her hand. Since her and Selena had separated Selena had never asked for the house key back and Kendall had never offered it. It had stayed on her key ring with her spare set of car keys. She'd been in the dregs of her recovery when she'd left this house, she'd forced herself into leaving.

It was much easier for her to be alone back then.

She slipped the key off the key ring and ran her finger slowly over the teeth of it, feeling the grooves, before she leaned across and pressed the door bell. The chime of it struck a familiar chord in her. She'd stayed in the house for almost three years and she knew it inside out. Yet she was glad she didn't live there anymore, it was a constant reminder of the past and she couldn't live in the past anymore.

She craned her head around the neighbourhood, she could already hear the houses opposite bursting with gossip. You know that cop Kendall Jenner? I saw her today outside her old home maybe her and Selena are getting back together. Unless the neighbours had already seen Selena's new girlfriend. I saw Kendall today at the front door, I wonder if she's wanting to get back together? Well she's too late because I've seen another woman coming out of that house in the mornings.

Yeah, she was glad she lived in an apartment block now. She shifted on her feet as the late October cold bit into her skin through her jacket, on the plus side she didn't think it was going to rain any time soon.

"Hi," Selena greeted her with a smile as she opened the door. "You want to come in?" Kendall nodded before she stepped past Selena and into the hall.

There was a lamp on in the hall way and it threw a warm half circle of light across the place. It had been decorated since the last time she had been there, the mat at the bottom of the stairs was still there though. She used to kick her shoes off there every night before she went upstairs. A photograph of Selena and her parents sat on the hall table, Kendall had taken it but she couldn't remember when or where it had been taken.

"Did you get everything emptied out of the storage unit?" Selena asked as she shut the door, the heat of the house warmed Kendall inside and out.

"I did, my apartment resembles something half decent now," Kendall answered as she continued to look around. It was completely foreign and yet exactly the same all in one.

"Let me guess, the first thing you did was get Linn sorted?" Selena teased.

Kendall smiled. Sometimes she forgot that she had spent years of her life with Selena. "Definitely, you know how much I love Linn. She's all ready to go."

Kendall had bought the Linn Sondek LP12 when she was twenty-one. It was a replica of her Dad's. Black ash in colour and absolutely stunning. At the heart of the Sondek LP12 was Linn's patented low-noise, single-point bearing. The advanced yet simple bearing design ensured the smooth motion of the turntable and eliminated noise to ensure that all you could hear was the music.

The combination of the precision-engineered components created a turntable with an unequalled ability to provide a pitch accurate, faithful reproduction of her cherished vinyl collection. She'd kept it in the top room of the house which was her room to sit and listen to her music as she pleased. Sometimes Selena joined her if she was home.

"Does Gigi know about your obsessive vinyl collection yet?"

Kendall shook her head. "No, not yet but she hasn't been over to the apartment since I've emptied the storage unit. She will love it and my thirty pristine LP albums." Kendall laughed, it was nice to talk about normal things again with Selena. It had been too long.

"Anyway, I have to go, me and Gigi are going out for dinner," Kendall said as she had one last look around the hallway. "Oh and here is the spare key, it's been on my key ring. I think it's time I gave it back to you."
