Jill's P.O.V:

John Mayer's lovely voice awakes me up from my nap. "Yes?" I groan answering my phone not bothering to check who it is.

"Were you sleeping honey?" Mother asks and I hum in response. "Sorry to wake you, I just wanted to check if you got my package?"

"Not yet mother I was going to fetch it after my nap." I smack my lips.

"Jill honey I'm sure it's late over there, doesn't the post office close early on Fridays?"

"Yeah alright alright mother I'm going." I groan sitting up and rubbing my eyes.

"Ring me up when you get it love."

"Yeah I will."

"I love you honey."

"Love you too mother." I yawn hanging up.

When I do finally get out of bed I a take a look at my dreadful appearance in the mirror. Without Simon around I haven't been doing much excise. I'm going to have to start running again to keep my fitness level up, especially since I'm taking over Dani's juniors. I put on my sweat pants, vest and trainers, before heading downstairs.

Father just returns from work as I walk out the front door. "Hey poppet." He kisses my forehead. "Where you off to?"

"Mother called and said she had sent a package for me so I'm going to fetch it from the post office. I might go for a run after."

"My driver will take you then. Be back in time for dinner, your grandparents will be here."

"Yes father." I wave him bye, trotting down the stairs into the black Mercedes.



"The post office is closed Mark, I'm gonna go for a run." I tell my fathers driver.

"Is Mr.Desai informed of this?"

"Yes Mark." I smile rolling my eyes and waving him bye.

It's probably been about an hour that I've been running and it's getting late. I turn around heading back to the post office, I know my way home from there. Just as I reach the post office I feel a drop of water fall on my sweaty skin. "Just great!" I pull out my earphones to ring father.

"Hey there love you need a ride?" I look up to see Zayn walking towards me.

"Zayn." I smile hugging him. "What are you doing here?"

"What are you doing here don't you have a dinner with grandfather?" He questions pulling back.

"Yeah. I was really looking forward to it, it's dreadful that I won't be there on time." I laugh rolling my eyes.

"Come on let's get you out of the rain." Zayn chuckles ushering me towards his black Range Rover.
"How you doing?" Perrie greets me as I get into the back seat.

"Hey Perrie." I smile I probably look awful and I'm clearly getting rain water all over Zayn's leather seats. "I'm sorry for getting your seats wet." I tell Zayn.

"That's alright love what were you doing out here anyway?" Zayn asks me.

"I was going for a run and then it just proper started raining out of nowhere. What are you guys doing here?"

"We were on our way to a party, just stopped here cause Harry needed to drop something off."

Zayn tells me while Perrie hands me a couple of tissues, I thank her with a smile and begin wiping my face.
