                                            *Perrie's POV*

"I'm fine. All better now." I lie through my teeth to my mum. Of course I feel terrible about lying to her. I'm not okay. I'm not better. That doesn't matter now though. Right now, I need to pretend that everything is okay so that I can get out of here and stop having food forced down my throat. I'll be even more fine after we get out of here and everyone leaves me alone. It's not that I don't miss my mum, I miss her so much. This isn't what I need, I'm craving the feeling of metal grazing my skin. The few cuts in the bathroom weren't enough. Seeing the pained look in her eyes, Mum gives a sad smile and embraces me into a tight hug.

"Your sure your alright Pezz?" Mum questions looking right into my eyes. I quickly put on a "Poker Face" and blink slowly nodding. Jesy and her exchange a look and I know that neither of them believe a word I'm saying.

"Perrie!" Leigh-Anne growls coming out of the bathroom, her eyes filled with tears.No, no! She found the washrag. The one soaked in my blood. I quickly give Leigh a pleading look before my mum can pull away from the hug. Please please, Leigh don't say it in front of my mum. She doesn't need all of this stress.

"You uhm, used all the shampoo!" She lies quickly. I let out a small sigh of relief and Jesy frowns not sure what's going on knowing that wasn't the real reason Leigh ran out of the bathroom. Luckily Leigh hides the rag behind her back before anyone can see. Mum pulls away from the hug and raises her eyebrows at Leigh, giving her a once over.

"Leigh-Anne. Your in a towel honey." My mum says gently and Leigh blushes and gives me a we will talk about this later look, chewing my lip I give a slight nod. How could I be so stupid? Leigh-Anne sighs and walks back into the bathroom. My mum has cancer. Cancer that doesn't give her much longer. Cancer that will take her if I'm not careful. She can't be stressed out. I want her last months to be happy. Not a terrible time because, of me.

"Mum? How are your treatments going?" I ask changing the subject and also really wanting to know the answer. I know deep down that the treatments aren't helping my mum. She looks pale, almost yellow. Doctors think that it's a miracle she can still walk.

"Good honey. You know I'm  going to be fine." She says reassuringly. Although, I know she's not. She knows she's dying. I've never seen her cry though, not once. I hope that she doesn't cry like I do, alone. Shaking my head as tears brim my eyes. I can't think like that right now. I admire her for that, although at the same time I wish that she would talk to me about it.

"Good mum. Please have a safe drive home yeah? Tell your nurse that I'll be coming over to see you as soon as I'm out." I give her a small smile and she hugs me. I hate the idea that my mum could die when I'm away on tour. I don't think I could take it if I wasn't there when she needed me most. Who am I kidding, an ex cheating with my best friend sent me over the edge.

"Oh, Pezzie. Don't cry. I'll be fine." I didn't even realize I was crying, however once she says it I can feel the tears hitting my cheek. She hugs me tightly and I hug back. Don't worry Pez, after mum is gone, you can take care of yourself too. That way she will always be with me. Everyone hates me anyways. She then, hands me a small bag. I frown slightly. It's not my birthday.

"Uh, Mum? Whats this for?" She chuckles and I raise an eyebrow. I don't deserve a mum as amazing as her.

"No. Though, I thought you could use this now. Don't open it until after I leave okay?" I nod slowly and look at the purple bag. Mum walks out after saying goodbye to the girls. Jesy bites her lip, staring out the window.

"Do you remember anything that woman said Perrie?" Jesy growls. What she can't even say Jade's name now? Well, I can't blame her. Jade should have came to us. Though, she did it for me. I don't know what I would've done in her position.

"You know what Jesy? She has a name. It's Jade. She made a mistake. Not like you, you are so perfect." I snap angrily. Tears well up in her eyes and she bites her lip trying not to cry and I sigh, instantly feeling guilty.

"I'm sorry Jesy. There is just too much in my head at the moment." Jesy nods understandingly and I chew my lip. My mind floats back to Jade and I can't help but think. Jade never wanted to do it. Maybe, neither did Zayn!  I shake my head quickly. No if Zayn loved me he would've called, or text, or something! Perrie how could you be so stupid to think he could love someone like you?

"Perrie. It's time for our talk." Leigh says coming out of the bathroom with the bloody washrag. Looking down, I give a slow nod.
