The Spotlight

Chapter Eight: Dinner with the Edwards

(Perrie Edwards)
Only about fifteen minutes ago did my mother decided to tell me that Jade and her family were coming over for dinner tonight, and that they were going to arrive in about thirty minutes. Right now I am in full out panic mode because I can't decided on what to wear for dinner, but I don't know why I'm stressing over this it's just Jade. Oh, yeah it's Jade that's why I'm about ready to poop myself. I finally decide to wear a simple tee and some black skinned jeans. Hopefully I can make an impression tonight on Jade, and maybe just maybe we can pick up where we left off before I left.
"Pez, come down stairs and say hello to our guest, please." It's time to start the night.

(Jade Thirlwall)
       My mum and I are on our ways to the Edwards house, which is about ten minutes from my house, and all I can do is think is "what if?". What if Perrie and I can't pick up where we left off? What if things are awkward between Perrie and I? What if something happens at dinner, and Perrie—
       "Jadey, honey, I can tell something is wrong." I swear I can never hide anything from this woman.
       "It's nothing mum I promise." I hope that she buys the lie, because I am already freaking out I don't need my mother worrying about me.
       "Okay, whatever lie you want to tell yourself." We continue to drive in silence unto we finally reach out destination, and when my mum stops in front of their house I feel as if I might throw up. We slowly make our way to the front door and before we even reach it Perrie's mum opens the door to greet us.
       "I'm so glad that you two could make it. Please come in and make yourselves at home." She ushers us inside, and our mums make their way to the kitchen.
       "Pez, come down stairs and say hello to our guest, please." Debbie yell from the kitchen.
       I look up at the stairs and watch us Perrie makes her way down then like a freaking angel.
       "Hey, Jade I'm glad that you could come tonight." She smiles that million dollar smile and adjust her glasses, and I don't know why but I feel as if she reminds my of someone when she does that.
       "Girls, dinner is ready."

(Perrie Edwards)
       I swear Jade gets cuter every second of everyday. The way her nose crinkles when she is nervous is just...ugh! I don't even have words to describe how cute Jade is 24/7. When we go into the dinning-room for dinner I sit across the table from Jade and beside my mum.  Once dinner started everyone feel into a comfortable conversation, and every once I awhile I would purposely rub my foot against Jade's leg hoping for a reaction.
        One time after I touched Jade she jumped a little in her seat and then looked down at her food and blushed. She is just, "Beautiful!"
       Everyone at the table stops talking and looks over at me. Crap, I just said that aloud, "The food is just beautiful. Thank you mum for making it for all of us I know how much effort you put into this."
        Well, that was close. After dinner I offer to help with the dishes, so that everyone can go into the family room the catch up on lost time. While I wash and dry I start to sing to myself.
      "Beautiful!" I turn to see Jade leaning up against the door way watching while I finish the rest of the dishes.
       "Your voice is absolutely stunning, but then again I has always been for as long as I can remember."
       "Thank you." I turn to finish the task I was doing when I feel someone reach from bigots me to grab another towel.
       "You wash and I'll dry." Jade and I start to fall into a rhythm until I accidentally splash her with water.
       "Jade, I promise that was an accident." She looks up at me with an evil smirk on face. Oh, no I'm in trouble now.
       "It's fine Perrie." She grabs the water hose off the sink so fast that I don't have time to react before she starts spraying me with water. I try to fight my way toward her.
       "Jade, stop it please!" I say as I grab the hose out of her hand, and it take me a while to realize how close we are. I have my body pushed up against hers so that she is pinned between me and the sink. She so close that I can feel her breathe on my lips. I subconsciously lip my lips before I start to lean in closer and closer.
       "Girls, whatever you guys just did in there I want you to clean up the mess right now, please." Dang it mum! Why does she always have the worst of timing? Jade escapes from under my arm and grabs her towel again.
       "We should probably start cleaning this mess up before our mums walk in here and really get angry."
