IM TRYING TO MAKE THIS LESS BORING IM SORRY

THE CHAPTERS ARE GOING TO START GETTING LONGER AFTER THIS ONE

*Forever Perrie-one*(kay that was bad)

"What have you got?'' Jesy asked me, seeing as I was writing away in my notebook.

We had all gotten together in the studio to do some writing. We usually write individually, but why not switch it up a bit?

I clear my throat. "I'm pregnant and I feel fat, and it's really really sad." I sang in the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

"Don't think fans will like that one much," Leigh-Anne winks.

"You guys said to write my feelings. This is what I feel." I simply state.

"Well, if you're just going to sing about the fetus growing inside you then we'll just write all the songs." Huffs Jade.

"Fetus?'' I give her a strange look, subconsciously wrapping my arm around my torso. My bump was getting bigger and bigger and that made me nervous.

"Jade, that is so rude." I start to tear up.

I read in one of my maternity books that around the stage I'm at and on is where the mood swings kick in. Oh joy.

Jade rolls her eyes playfully and turns her attention back to the notebook sitting in front of her.

"This is boring," Leigh-Anne states, flipping her notebook over and breaking the few moments of silence.

"Agreed. Let's talk about Perrie's baby." Jesy says eagerly, flipping her notebook over as well. Jade nods, agreeing.

I scoff. "I don't have anything interesting to tell you guys, unfortunately."

"Anything is interesting to us. How's pregnancy?'' Jesy asks.

"Not lovely that's for sure." I wink.

"Tell us about it," They stared at me like students eager to learn in a classroom.

I stared back in disbelief. Were they really just willing to sit here and listen to me talk about being four months pregnant?

"Um, it sucks to keep it short. Just nine long months of cramps and hormones." I say simply.

Without saying anything else, Jesy, Leigh-Anne, and Jade all turn back to their notebooks.

"Let's just leave." Jade announces.

"We can't. We told the registrar that we'd stay for another hour and then lock up." Leigh says.

"No one ever said anything about leaving the building." Jade smirks, getting up and leaving the room without another word.

Curiously, Jesy, Leigh-Anne, and I get up and follow her out of the room.

Jade skipped through the halls singing one of our songs at the top of her lungs. She sounded off key due to the skipping.

"What the hell are you doing?'' Jesy asked as we chased her down the corridor.

"Singing and skipping!" Jade announces, as if it weren't obvious.

She runs down the hall and into a room we've never been to. There were records hanging all over the walls, some spray-painted gold.

"What is this?'' I ask, placing a hand on my bump.

"Hey look, I found One Direction's record." Jade giggled, pointing at one of the records spray-painted gold. She stared at it for a bit more with a lost look, then looked away.

"Are these real records?'' Jesy asks, running her hand down one of the glass cases.

"I think these are metaphorical 'Record Deals'." Leigh-Anne informed.

I looked around the room and read the names on the records. I recognized most of them from the X Factor but some seemed foreign.

"Here's ours!" Jesy yelled with glee, pointing at one of the records not spray-painted gold.

The three of us walked over to the record that Jesy was pointing at that indeed had 'Little Mix' engraved at the bottom.

"Well would you look at that," Leigh-Anne said, nodding her head in approval.

We suddenly heard the whistling of a custodian down the hall, meaning this was the chance to run.

"Hurry up Perrie!" Jade called as we were halfway down the hall, me lagging behind.

"You try running while almost five months pregnant!" I exclaimed, holding my small bump as I ran.

Soon we were back in the recording room and sitting on the red couches.

"Well that was dandy," Jesy stated, out of breath.

"I'm bored again." Said Jade.

"Do what you guys must; that was way too much exercise for me today." I say, leaning back in the couch and patting my bump satisfactorily.

"You and your knocked up belly." Jade rolled her eyes playfully.

"zayn, i'm pregnant." ♡ z.p.Where stories live. Discover now
