Chapter 18: Blossoming Friendships...

I switched Jakob to my left arm, my right cramping from holding him there for so long. I snuggled the blanket on his body closer to his sleeping figure since it's pretty freezing in here. I look at the little amount of people, mostly business, that come and go all throughout Heathrow's halls and out the door. There's a man that just passed who was talking on the phone wearing a blue tux and black trousers while holding a briefcase. To my right there's a lady sitting in a pencil skirt and black shirt on her computer. Although, I don't know why she's sitting down. Waiting for her flight possibly?

I probably look so unprofessional. I'm currently sitting on a chair in black sweats, a Nirvana shirt, black hoodie, and black trainers in an airport. Waiting for Eleanor and Perrie's arrival. I notice this place hasn't changed since the last time I was here. That was when I had just turned 18 and John was 24 and as a birthday gift, he bought us tickets to go to Italy for a week. That was a vacation I'll never forget.

I looked at the time and saw it was 4:00. Eleanor and Perrie should be coming out soon. And in case you're wondering, yes, it's 4:00 in the morning. Their flight had been at 8:00pm back in America so the time difference was hell. I opened up the photos app on my phone and looked at the picture Louis had sent me of both of the girls so that way it'd be easier to find them. I looked towards Gate 17 and saw a crowd of people filing out from the 2 large glass doors. I stood up and hauled my purse onto my shoulder and readjusted Jake. I searched through the crowd and occasionally would glance at my phone for a refresh on what the pair looked like. I tried looking for anyone who looked like the 2 girls on my screen but I came to no avail.

Well, that is until I got tapped on the shoulder. I spun around, only to find a blonde super model right before me. She looked happy and confused. Probably because of the way I look.....

"Oh! Hello! Uhm, are you Jessie?" She asked. I stared at her for a while and then I looked down at my phone. I looked back up, then back down again.

Holy crap.... It's Perrie. 

When I looked back up at her again, she gave me this uneasy look. I snapped out of my gaze and recovered quickly. Shoving my phone back into my sweats pocket. I stuck out my hand immediately.

"I'm so sorry! And yes, I am Jessie. It's so nice to meet you!" I exclaimed as she took my hand and pulled me into an unexpected side hug. We would've smothered Jake if we gave each other a regular hug.

"It's great to finally meet you too!! Eleanor has told me so much about you on the plane ride here. So has Zayn!" We pulled away and I offered her a hand with the 2 bags she had with her.

"Oh no! That's okay. Thank you though."

"Of course! You're really pretty by the way." She laughed.

"You're really pretty too! I'm surprised Prince Charming hasn't come to sweep you off your feet yet!" I looked at her questioningly.

"Huh?" I really hope Zayn kept his mouth shut about what has happened. Him and Louis. She looked at me sheepishly.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. Zayn told me everything there was to know about you so I would be prepared for the few days we're going to be staying with you." She said sympathetically.

Great. More freaking pity. Just what I freaking need. Zayn's so dead.

I scowled for a second but then put on a smile and said, "No, no. It's fine. I just wish he would've let me tell you instead of telling you himself. Oh! And where's Eleanor?" I asked quickly changing the subject.

"She's still having trouble finding her bags. We should probably go help her. She's a bit ditzy when it comes to finding stuff." Perrie explained with a giggle. I giggled along with her as we made our way to the baggage claim. There I saw a tall young girl in Hollister pants and sweater trying to find her bags. I immediately recognized her wavy brown hair as Eleanor.
