*Jade's P.O.V*

Another whole day of Alex no where to be seen, Jia helping me with Brooklyn and I cooking food..

I thought of trying with Alex. Maybe negotiating with him so he can stay with Brooklyn and those attempts all went to waste... just like the dinner I just made for him and I.

"Jia, I'm done. You can go home now" I said briefly before carrying Brooklyn to my room. I told Jia that she could stop coming to my house to help me from now on since that wasn't her intentions from the beginning but she begged and said she wants to help without Harry's orders. I couldn't say no to her, and so I accepted.

"Goodnight, Jade" she said with a smile and I returned and with that she took her bag and left.

I turned off unnecessary lights of the house before leaving my room and the kitchen ones on. 11:47pm Might as well eat now considering the fact that Alex won't come any soon.

Brooklyn had fallen asleep a while ago and that spared me the time to finish up some work and eat. I thought of visiting my parents but with Brooklyn so young, the doctor had told me to wait a few months. And so mum told me that they can wait as long as I send them pictures of a smiling Brooklyn in the arms of his parents.

After finishing up my food, I decided to grab a cup of tea to my room and go through social media just to see what was going on. It's easier and more peaceful on social media right now considering the fact that I had put everything on private. True I would get messages from Harry's fans every now and then but I never really got the guts to open them and actually reply...

And thanks to the fast updates on Twitter and Instagram, I chuckled when I saw new photos of the boys and girls all around the world. Gemma was back in England, which made me sad that she was no longer living in Los Angeles with her husband. Louis and Niall were in Doncaster for football. Zayn was visiting his father in his home country and Liam was last seen in New York. On the other hand, Harry... He was always here... in Los Angeles.

I must've fallen asleep when I was awoken by Brooklyn crying. I quickly got up rubbing my eyes and carrying Brooklyn in my lap, trying to get him to stop crying. He eased once he was in my lap but he still cried softly. I caressed his cheeks and stopped in my actions. I quickly felt his forehead and it was blazing with heat. Oh goodness. Rushing to the washroom and grabbing the baby thermometer was my immediate reaction. I took his temperature and it was definite that he has a fever. The doctor strictly told me that Brooklyn could get a fever anytime due to him being quite weak and that I should take caution.

"Brooklyn, you'll be alright" I cooed him clearly just to relief myself considering the fact that he won't understand a thing. He soon stopped crying and that scared me even more. Babies are supposed to cry when they're not well right? I grabbed my phone and checked the time. 2:38am. And Alex was nowhere to be seen. Gemma is not here anymore and neither are any of the boys or girls except Harry... I quickly thought of Jia and dialed her phone. It ringed a few times before directing to voice mail. Come on. I called her again a few times before it went to voice mail again.

I felt tears forming in my eyes, I didn't know what to do. I don't even know where Alex keeps his money or else I would've taken them to take Brooklyn to the hospital. I scrolled through my phone as I felt my vision turning blurry because of the tears. I stopped when I reached Harry's contact number. Should I call him? He will pick up right?
