Adele Please Say That You Love Me

It's Time To Say Goodbye (12)

Angelo's POV

Well, today Jess is supposed to get her A-Level results, then in a few weeks, like basically a month, she is going to leave us. Great. Mum is getting really emotional about Jess leaving, which I guess I get. Surely, though, it's not that much of a bug deal. Either way, we have to go to this place to pick her results up, Jess actually wants to go to meet up with some old friends she now doesn't talk to, because of the paps and stuff I have to stay at home with Nan.

"Peanut come downstairs, Nannie's here and we're now going!" my train of thought is broken when Dad shouts me.

"OOOOOkay" I reply, I was quite excited I haven't spent a couple of hours with Nan for weeks now. Yet again my thoughts begin to trail as I run down the stairs. Nan stood at the front door, before she could speak I flung myself onto her. Then onto Mum, Dad and finally, Jess. "Bye, have fun, I love you" those words fell out of my mouth at a million miles per hour.

Adele's POV

We just got in the car to get my baby's A-Level results she keeps saying she did shit, I reckon she passed with more than flying colours. Small talk filled the car about the album, I have my last studio sessions next week then I'm going to hand it in. Scary I know. I just hope my Daydreamers love it and haven't forgotten about me, saying that with all the shit that's gone down the past week, how could they? The journey to local college (basically, the British version of American High School, I'm NOT talking about Uni), Jess is going to meet some people she hasn't seen in years, I know that one bitch would be there, but, what can I do? Maybe she isn't such a bitch anymore? However, she probably is, let's be completely honest, people don't grow out of being a Secondary School bitch, that fast. A leopard doesn't change its spots.

Simon pulls the car up into the car park, they were kind enough to give us a reserved parking space in the staff car park so we weren't mobbed. We all get out of the car, I help Jess because her rib is still very sore, the bruising is going down a little bit. The last thing we want when we get in is for Jess to be squeezed, I dare say they all know about the fire because of the fucking paps. We got Pete to meet us at the college, just to make sure Jess stays in one piece. Some of these people Jess hasn't seen for two years and wants to start speaking to again, hopefully. When I get Jess out of the car, Simon and I pull her in for a gentle hug. This is it.

Slowly, because of Jess, we make our way to the side entrance of the college, Simon opened the door and someone was standing there waiting, I'm guessing to escort us the hall. We carefully made our way through the corridors and into the hall, we were met by Beth, it meant a lot to Jess that she was there, which I get. Beth gently hugged Jess, it was then everyone realized that 'we' were here. Ohhhh shit.

People flocked over towards us, Simon stopped them and spoke to all of them, they seemed to acknowledge whatever he said as the waited to see Jess one by one. Jess was so happy to see many faces she hadn't seen for a while.

After everyone had left us alone, Beth returned from going to find Jess's envelope with the grades she achieved in.

"This is it..." are the only words that left Jess's mouth as I opened the envelop Beth just passed to me. Before I even looked at the piece of paper, I was going to play a joke and say she just got straight A's but considering Jess's condition it wasn't really a good idea to do that. I could tell by the expression on Jess's face that she was ready to be disappointed, to be honest, I feel like this disbelief in herself comes from, when she wasn't my child, she has told me stories on what Alan would say to her when she passed exams but not with top grades. No child should ever be made to feel the way she was made to feel when she just passed exams it was horrific. My eye glanced at the now exposed grades Jess had received, I couldn't help but beam, I knew she could do it!

"Babe, I love you so much!" I began, I could sense Simon peeking over my shoulder, the grin grew on his face too. Beth joined us. "Babe you passed... WITH ALL A*'s!!!" I continued and shouted the end. I was SOOOOOOOOOOO happy for her. She looked shocked and jumped around me to look at the paper, she hugged me as tightly as she could with her rib.

"Thank you sooooooo much, I couldn't have done this without any of your help, thank you sooo, so much!" she said now pulling Simon and Beth into the little group hug. She was so sweet.

After that moment we made a quick dash for the door and began to head to KFC with Pete trailing behind us. We wanted something quick for lunch because dinner we were having a dinner party, my Mum, Beth, Laura, Alex, Cameron, and Chloe were coming too, Ashlyn would have came too but she was spending some time with her family in America before coming here for uni. She had already got her grades and has her place fulfilled at Cambridge. To my surprise KFC was empty so we quickly gained our food and left.

Simon put 'I AM SASHA FIERCE' on in the car, we were all just singing'If I Were A Boy' and 'Halo' at the top of lungs until we got home, it was GREAT. You can imagine. Once again I helped Jess out of the car whilst Simon took the KFC into the house. I think the smiles radiation of our faces said everything to my Mum as we passed her and Angelo as we headed into in the kitchen.

...

The dinner party was amazing, I had so much fun. Jess had been going on and on about getting some tattoos, I didn't want to leave it for her when she went to uni, I don't want some dodgy bastard putting things on her skin, so Simon and I agreed together that it would be best if she got them before she goes to Cambridge, it's going to be one of her 18th birthday surprises.

A/N

Just a bit of a filler chapter, sorry, I'm finding actually quite hard to write after Adele at the Grammys. The last chapter I wrote the day before the Grammys so there was no issue with that, I'm sorry if there are any errors, it has already taken me at least x5 as long to write a chapter as it normally does.
