Fake Love (Jerrie Fanfiction)

Chapter 10

Perrie's POV

It's been a week since our meeting with the upper management. Jesy told me that Paul have already talked to Jade but Paul haven't told her any details yet. And yes, it's been a week but the news haven't died down and it's still the talk of the town, still trending on social media. People started to call us "Jerrie" which is a combination of Jade and I's name. It's actually from the fans who call themselves as Jerrie shippers. Anyway, I haven't heard from my family though. Usually, at times like this, they were the first to console me, ask me if everything's okay or something, but now there's nothing. I wonder why..

Jesy and I arrived at a coffee shop where Paul said he'll meet us. We went through the back door since there are paparazzi strolling in the front of the cafe. What are they doing here? As soon as we entered, we were directed to a private room. And when we got there, I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw a certain someone sitting on a curved couch scrolling at her phone. She's so engrossed at it, she didn't even noticed our arrival. Beside her is an Afro-haired lady who is talking to Paul.

"Hey guys!" Jesy said, getting everyone's attention.

And then she looked up, her eyes landed at me. I immediately averted my gaze to the floor, embarrassed that she caught me staring. Oh my gosh! But why is she here?

"You're late!" Paul said as he stood up.

"Only by ten minutes." Jesy countered.

"Still late. Anyway, let me introduce everyone." he said in a serious tone.

"Girls, this is Jade Thirlwall and her assistant Leigh-Anne Pinnock." he said and they stood up. Paul now turned to them.

"Ladies, this is Perrie Edwards and her handler Jesy Nelson." he introduced us.

"Oh my God! I'm such a huge fan!" the Afro-haired girl squealed as she made her way in front of me.

"Hi, thank you! Nice to meet you." I said.

"Stop fangirling Leigh." Jade chuckled.

"What? I really loved her songs." she responded. Cute.

She turned to me again and offered her hand, I took it with mine and shook them. She did the same with Jesy. Jade walked up to Jesy and shook her hands as well. Then she turned to me.

"It's nice to see you again Perrie." she said in that sweet voice of hers and smiled at me.

"H-hi.. Nice t-to see you too." I said. Why the stuttering? And boy, her smile.

"Okay everyone, take a seat please." Paul said abruptly.

Jade and Leigh-Anne returned to their previous places in the couch, while me and Jesy sits opposite them. I took a glance up at Jade and she's staring at me, still with a smile in her face. Oh, I'll be damned!

"So I gather you all here to talk about some things." Paul said. We all nodded and he continue.

"First of all, let me inform you Jesy and Perrie, that Jade had accepted our proposition. She agreed to date Perrie just like what the management wanted." he stated. Oh my God! She agreed?! Really? Oh man, I can't even... I'm trying to keep calm but surely I'm failing.

"We need to talk about the terms of your dating. Also, Jade and I have discussed about her being Perrie's choreographer for the third album." he said. Wait! What? My choreographer? Jeez!

"Perrie's choreographer?" Jesy asked, as if reading my mental questions.

"Yes. We thought it'll be a good anchor for your assumed relationship. And come on, Jade here is the best in the world! We need someone like her for the next album." he explained.
