It Gets Better// Perrie Edwards

Nerves All Round (10)

Jade

"Ready to go my love?" I asked Perrie, as I saw Jed pull up, though the window.

"Yeah, the sooner I go the sooner I can get some food and stop feeling like I'm going to be sick or faint." She said, shrugging her coat on slowly.

"exactly, now do you want a hug before we go, to calm those shaky legs?" I asked, texting Jed, telling him I'll be out soon.

"please?" she said, wrapping her arms around me.

"I promise you'll be fine love, I'll be there every step of the way okay, just like I promised." I told her, rubbing her back softly.

"Thanks Jade" She said as we pulled away.

"No problem honey-bun, now how would you like to meet my potential boyf" I suggested, shutting the door behind her.

She just smiled shyly and nodded, calling the lift.

I felt my heart quicken when we neared the ground floor, knowing this would be the first time one of my friends had met Jed, not even Jesy had!

"Jade calm down, I'm sure I'll love him!" Perrie said nudging me in the side.

"How did you know?" I asked in astonishment, certain I had concealed my nerves.

"I know you all to well Jade, now come on I want to meet lover boy!" She said jumping up out of the lift, her apparent nerves gone for a while.

I stepped out after her and was greeted by a smiling face stood by a black bmw. He had a blue polo top on under a black denim jacket.

"Hi love" he said, hugging me and dipping down to kiss me, as I stood on my tip toes. Just like all the other times it was gentle and soft but passionate and love filled all at the same time. We pulled away quickly and he kept his arm wrapped around me as we turned to face Pez.

"Pezza this is Jed" I announced, to my smiley friend.

"Its lovely to meet you properly Jed, she doesn't stop going on about you so it's nice to finally meet you!" She joked, avoiding Jed's hand and pulling him straight into a hug.

"Likewise! You're just how Jade explained you." He said, pulling away from the hug.

"Thanks for doing this Jed, I promise it shouldn't take too long and then we can get on with the movies" I said as he opened the back door for Perrie and then the front for me.

"No worries, so it's st James' isn't it?" He asked once he was sat next to me in the front.

"Yes," Perrie confirmed, pulling her seatbelt on.

"Okie dokie, let's get going!" He said, launching the car away.

Later on

"How you feeling now Pez?" I asked, stroking her hair.

"A bit better, I'm sorry about your date Jade," she sighed, rubbing her eye to remove the sleep.

"Its fine Pez, Jed understands that you're not feeling great at the moment." I told her, climbing into bed next to her after she patted it.

"I'll be fine on my own Jade if you want to go out, I'm honestly feeling less weak and fainty." She told me, hugging my side.

"I don't want to leave you in case you faint again love, you need supervision for at least 24 hours and you haven't eaten yet so we don't know if you're going to ..." I rambled, stopping when Perrie put her hand over my mouth.

"Stop Jadey, I texted Jesy and she's on her way round to look after me. Jed will be here to pick you up in 40 minutes for a movie night at his house." She told me.

"Yeah I know but I can't be ... wait what?" I said confused.

"I said, Jesy is on her way over as is Jed. The latter is going to take you to his to watch a film and have a take away whilst Jesy 'keeps and eye on me' Okay?" She repeated, saying the the last bit with quote marks.

"Really?" I asked in shock.

"Yep, now go get ready, loverboy will be here soon!" She said, pushing me out of the bed, "Oh and don't forget to thank him for carrying me in."

I really do have the best friends I thought to myself as I left the room, glancing down at my scruffy outfit, wondering what I was going to wear.
