Third Person's POV:

Jade is driving the car while Perrie is staring outside the windows to see the places they pass by. It was long silent drive but it's not awkward at all.

Jade look at Perrie and a smile crept of her face looking at the blond girl who's now sleeping on her shut gun seat.

When they arrive at the place Jade's wants to go, she shook Perrie's arm lightly and murmur "Pez? Come on baba wake up we are here."

"Hmmm!" Perrie hum as a response to Jade and start to stir her eyes open. She looks around as she saw the car is already stopped at the entrance of some place.

"Hey Pez! You alright?" Jade ask her and she answer the question back to Jade "Yeah I'm fine so where are we?"

Jade didn't answer her and just walk outside the car so Perrie do the same and when she went outside the car she saw a very relaxing place she could ever see.

Perrie's eyes light up as it roam every side of the place. Jade look at Perrie's face as she saw excitement on her eyes, so she decided to walk beside Perrie and lays her arms around her arms.

"Come on baba lets go there so we can make it to the most breath taking site you will ever see." Jade told Perrie while dragging her to the forest at the side of the beach.

When they reach the center of the forest they found a big rock and Jade start to climb to it and sit at the top of the rock gesturing Pez to follow her.

"Jade its slippery, I may slide back here." Pez told Jade as she struggle to come up. Jade then start to stand up to where she sit in and taking her hands out so Perrie can hold and guide her to the top of the rock.

Once they settled in top of the rock Jade decided to sit and just stares at the unknown. Pez look at Jade movement so she mimic it and sit beside her.

"Jade what are we doing here?" Pez ask her confuse and Jade just shrug her shoulder and murmur "Shhhsss! Just look up there" as she gesture her hand pointing on the sky.

Pez look at the sky and mumbles "WOW!" as they saw a very beautiful sunset they ever seen. It's a mixture of orange and bluish clouds color as the sun it setting and hiding from the back of the clouds.

The view is very relaxing plus the comforting breeze of the air brushing through their skin. "This is so beautiful Jade." Pez said while still looking at the sky.

Jade decided to look at Perrie's face admiring how beautiful the blond is considering the reflection of the sunset cascading through her face and she murmur "so as you".

Perrie was shock at what she heard not sure if she heard her right or maybe she's just having some daydream about the brunette sitting beside her.

After a minute Pez took a gaze of Jade still looking at her. Suddenly the ocean blue eyes meet the brown orb that is staring at her.

Jade gives her a smile and poke her nose causing her nose scrunch up and send a blush on her cheek. Jade left a little giggle before looking at the sky again but this time with a serious look.

Pez notice the change of Jade's mood so she ask her "what are we doing here Jade?" while still looking at her waiting for her answer as well.

"When I was a kid my family always went her on the side of beach to have a family time, enjoy and having relax time together."

"Karl and I, always raised on the beach then one day I decided to walk on the shore I didn't notice that I went so far from them then I saw this forest curiosity have me so I walk inside here and I found this spot."

"I was so amaze on how beautiful the view, from here you can see the shore and mostly the sky. From time to time I went here to be alone and relax even then they didn't know that this place exist I never have told someone about this or even let them see this place."

"This is like my fortress of solitude but I haven't been here since the day we left and leave at London." Jade said while still having a gaze on the sky like she lost on her thought.

"But you let me know and even let me see your fortress why is that?" Pez ask her confused.

Jade look at her once again, their eyes lock at gaze of each other "because you make me feel that I can tell you everything. You know what's weird? I didn't know you at all, I only know you for a week and here I am saying things and showing you this place like I have known you all my life." Jade told her while giving her a genuine smile.

Perrie can't help not to smile hearing those words coming from Jade. "You know it funny, I feel the same way to you. Like I known you all my life and I can be honest to you but I'm scared Jade." Perrie said and frown at her last word and let her head down.

On other hand Jade is somewhat confuse so she ask her "scared of what Pez?

Perrie look up to face Jade and murmur "scared that if I tell you everything you end up leaving me and make fun of me or worst look at me differently like I'm no good, that I don't deserve to have someone who will stick in my life because I'm a terrible person coming from a terrible family."

Perrie's head meet halfway to her hand as she buried her face in her hands and start to cry.

Jade grab Perrie's hand and put her finger on Pez chin to lift her head up and look into Jade's eyes before she said "hey! I won't do that to you Pez."

Before giving her a weak smile but her tears still fell from her cheek as she said to Jade that "that's what she said" Jade frown a little bit and ask her "who?" Pez answer her quietly "Katherine"

"and who is this Katherine?" Jade ask Pez while wiping the tears from her face.

"She is my ex-best friend" Pez told Jade but Jade want to know more about it so she ask "ex-best friend? what happened?"

"She left me without any words and when they got back here and I saw her I thought we will be the same as before but I was wrong, she hated me, she throw mean words on my face and she wants to stay away from me because she think that I'm a freak and I hurt her."

Perrie buried her face again with her hands but Jade shove herself besides Perrie before she wraps her arms around Perrie.

Now Pez face are buried in her chest while she draw circle on Pez back trying to make her relax a little bit more.

Pez sobbing begins to lighten up to the stop then Jade said to her "I'm not her Pez and I won't do that to you, know cheer up. Stop crying cause she ain't worthy of your tears."

Pez lift her head to face Jade and she murmur "Thanks" "Anytime" Jade respond as her thumb wiping Perrie's tears from her face again after it Jade let Pez snuggle into the crock of her neck while still cuddle her in her arms.
