It's kind of weird; just hopped out of bed, on a Saturday morning at 8:00 am, she really means that much but I was finally going to get to see Jesy after such a long time! Jesy, yes Nelson. From Little Mix. I met her one day at Nando's. I was just sipping my large cola daydreaming and she walked over with her ridiculously tall boyfriend, Jordan Banjo. "Hey, can we sit here?" I thought I heard a fimiliar voice, then looked up and fangirled like a maniac. Gosh, i swear I screamed so loud the Queen heard, but I swear Little Mix are my life. For a 20 year old, my life was just so boring and had no excitement. Little Mix wasmy sanity,  my escape from reality. And now the amazing Jesy Nelson started talking to me! I was worthless to her, but i had to say yes! Jesy and Jordan sat next to me in the booth seating. "I love your sweatshirt" Jesy told me as she plopped her tray of greasy junk food next to me. "I'm gonna go use the bathroom, be right back" said Jordan as he got up and bumped his head into a light fixture. Me and Jesy chuckled. From that day on, me and Jesy have been great friends and hung out together. 

The day I finally got to see Jesy was the day she got back to England from their American tour. She rang my doorbell. I hopped right out and eagerly opened my apatment door. Jesy burst in through my doorway and hugged me really tight. Oh god, I thought. i probably looked like a wothless garbage bag with no makeup and my hair up in a loose ponytail. being around someone as perfect as jesy makes me feel insecure, no matter how much I love her. Even worse, she was carrying at least 10 little gift bags of things for me. She was probably expefcting something from me, but Im broke...

Jesy sat down on my new couch. "Wow, this is so soft" Looked at my kitchen "I love these countertops" saw my messy died blonde tips "I love your hair". It really got to me that Jesy tried to make me happy and i just couldnt feel good about me.

She looked at me and noticed my serious face. "Whats wrong hun?" She had a habit of calling me hun and sweetie."Sweetheart, look into my eyes and tell whats wrong with you"

"Nothing its just..."

"Just what?"

God, I couldn't take it nor hold it in. 

'I HATE MYSELF THATS WHAT"

Jesy looked up at me sterner then i've ever seen before. She jumped up off my couch and dropped all the giftbags."IS THAT WHAT YOU REALLY THINK OF YOURSELF!"

"I'M WORTHLESS!" i was reallly getting upset now. "HOW COUld YOU EVEN STAND TO HANG OUT WITH ME. I'M A LOSER!!"

Jesy clenched her teeth and stepped forwards, and instead of yelling at me grabbed my hands and closing her eyes as she looked at the ground. She looked back up at me and her eyes were all watery. 

"Don't ever.. just dont dare say that about yourself, you don't know what you mean to me... You are my sanity, my escape from reality. You mean so much to me that I came all the way here to see you! All the way from North America.I could've spent the next few days with the girls, but I came here to see you, cause you make me happy."

"Happy?"

Jesy looked me in the eyes, she looked really sad now.

"Wish I knew back then, what I know now, 

wish I could somehow

go back in time and maybe listen to my own advice"

"Jesy, you don't have to do this..."

"Yes I do, you are beautiful and wonderful, don't let anyone tell you otherwise."

We both plopped down on the couch and started crying. Jesy Nelson had just changed my life.

"I used to be insecure, I hated myself and other people noticed it too, it really got to me. It must get to you, too. But look where i am now. You just let them underestimate you and they will feel so wrong."

"I love you so much, Thank you so much Jess"

She hugged me real tight and said these last words before she left

"You can be beautiful, wonderful, anything you wanna be."

She just go up and walked out the door.

She was my bestfreind now and i will hold onto her forever.
