The Coach's Daughter, my wife (Jerrie)

Chapter 7

"That's all you need to know. We're looking forward to working with you. You can now leave for your houses the contestants will arrive only hours after you do so make sure everything is set and that they won't see your advisors", Simon Cowell concluded the meeting with all the judges and advisors.

This caused everyone to get on their planes quickly and make their way to their designated villas. Perrie had to keep herself from fangirling too much over Louis Walsh bringing Ella Henderson with him since she absolutely loved her writing style and is really excited to see what her next album had in store for her.

The other advisors were Leona Lewis and Olly Murs. The blonde kind of felt out of place in the meeting due to everyone apart from her having appeared on the "x Factor" in the past. Sure she had met Simon a couple of times and also performed at the live shows but this was really different.

It wasn't until everyone had told her what a pleasure it was for them to meet her and get her involved in the show that she didn't feel as nervous anymore. After all she was here to support one of her best friends why was she nervous in the first place?

"So how many of your girls will join us?", Perrie asked her friend who was yawning due to her lack of sleep in the past few weeks.

"8 and we have to determine which 4 of them deserve to go through", Leigh sighed while leaning into Jesy for some comfort which made the blonde miss Jade even more.

Sure they had last seen each other only yesterday but having others acting all loved up in front of you doesn't help. And so does the fact that Jade has to attend a boot camp which would prepare her for the next season.

"And do you have favourites already?"

"No, they all have a crazy lot of potential and it will be so hard to pick the best out of them", Leigh groaned once she felt the football coach massage her back in order to relief some stress.

"We'll make the best decision I'm sure. Go get some sleep", Perrie suggested with a smile and it didn't take long until Leigh had fallen asleep with Jesy joining her in the dream of sleep shortly after.

This gave Perrie time to think about everything. She had a few more concerts for her tour but would join Leigh in an extended stay in her villa in Marbella before that. Afterwards she decided to take some time off and not write new music for a while. She loved doing it but at the same time she wanted to take some time to relax from her stressful schedule and spend some quality time with her wife and maybe even her children in the future.

"You look really beat up, Thirlwall. Everything alright?", Francesca asked her team mate with a smile.

"Yeah, I just didn't expect that the boot camp included learning Italian", Jade answered, looking up from all the different Italian text books on her table. She was exhausted but not physically. She was mentally exhausted and she hated that at the moment. There was nothing she'd rather do at the moment than shoot some goals out on the pitch right now.

"You'll have to. Not everyone here knows English all too well and you do want to make friends don't you?"

"Yeah, but it's hard and I hate studying alone. Can't anyone help me?"

"Ask Ms lovergirl", Francesca teased, clearly having picked up on jokes Jade's other friends made at home.

"Ugh, she's in Marbella"

"Why's that?"

"She's filming for the "x Factor"", Jade groaned, only now realising that she was especially miserable because of the fact that she won't get to see her sunshine for a week or two due to the blonde enjoying some time with her friend and herself having to prepare for the season.
