JASMINE'S POVAfter I texted Perrie, since Brooke wasn't answering me and Perrie's the second closest to her, I found out that she wasn't at home. She was at Zayn and Perrie's house, but only Perrie was there. She stayed the night too. Poor Zayn. He's probably the only one in the group that didn't get any. Sad."I'll see you later, boo." Harry said as he pulled up to Perrie's house, leaning over for a kiss."See you." I smiled and got out.I went to Perrie's door and knocked on it, her answering it almost a minute later."Hey." She greeted."Hey." I returned, stepping in and closing the door behind me. "Where's Brooke?""Living room. Tea? Coffee? Anything?""No, I'm fine. But can I talk to her alone for a second?""Sure." And with that, she headed upstairs.I know what you're thinking. Why am I forgiving her this early? Well, if you had a friendship like we had, you wouldn't wanna lose her either. Plus, it wasn't entirely her fault anyway. Harry was a part of it too, so I can't just forgive him and stay mad at her because that's fucked up. Like, really fucked up.I entered the living room, finding Brooke passed out on the couch with a few of beer bottles on the floor and tissues surrounding her. She's a heavy drinker when she's upset."Brooke?" I said softly, shaking her lightly. "Brookie." I said, shaking her again, but she wouldn't budge.She left me no choice. She might get pissed, but whatever. I put my mouth close to her ear."BROOKE!" I yelled into it, making her shoot up, causing us to bump heads."Owww." We groaned simultaneously, rubbing our heads.She sniffled and wiped her eyes a bit, then looked at me and furrowed her eyebrows."What're you doing here?" She asked.Her voice was rough and raspy from sleeping so much, and her makeup was smudged."I came to forgive you." I admitted."Forgive me? I thought you said you hated me and that you never wanted to see me again.""You think I meant that? I was just mad. I say shit thats on my mind when I'm mad and I don't mean any of it.""True." She agreed. "Have you talked to Harry?""Yeah." I nodded. "If me and you go back to being friends, everything's back to normal. That's all I want and I swear I'll be the happiest girl on earth."She smiled when I said that."So we're good?" She said."We're good." I confirmed.She reached out for a hug, and I accepted it, ignoring her stench of alcohol."You're gonna shower right?" I said."Wasn't planning on it."I lifted my head up at her and looked at her like she was crazy."I'm kidding." She chuckled. "I was planning to shower after I woke up.""Well hurry up. I'm gonna call all the girls and we're gonna have a girls' day at the mall.""Is Eleanor coming?""Of course. Why?""You two made up?""Yup." I nodded. "Last night.""Oi." She sighed. (A/N: Lol . Oi . Never gets old Bee xD)"What?""I don't think I can look at her without wanting to rip her kidneys out of her."'''''"What about this?" I said, holding up another dress, hoping Eleanor would approve of it.I saw her take a good, hard look at the dress before nodding her head, making me sigh of relief."Finally." I said."Nobody fucking cares about your shitty opinion." I heard Brooke mumble, but I think I only heard.I don't think it was meant for anybody to hear anyway."Wait, Jas you have red hair. Red hair and a red dress?" Perrie spoke up."We're dying her hair blonde soon." Eleanor answered for me."You are?" Danielle said."Yeah." I nodded. "I did once, why not do it again?""Yeah cuz blondes are awesome." Brooke smirked, but ended up letting out a small laugh.I know we're all cool with each other, but why do I feel tension? I just have a gut feeling that something's gonna go down."Might as well get the dye while we're here." Eleanor said."No shit sherlock." I heard Brooke mumble again.This time, I turned to look at her. 'Whats up?' I mouthed. She only looked at Eleanor, rolled her eyes, and continued looking through the clothes rack. Ok?"I'm gonna go try this on." Brooke said, pulling a shirt from out the rack. "Jas, come with me.""Ok."I know that shirt was random because its not even her size. I know she's gonna let me in on something. Once we got to the dressing rooms, we went behind a curtain."I don't like Eleanor." She said."Yeah I got that much. But why?""She's a fucking whore!""Ok...how?""Remember when me and Jake were dating?"I nodded, signaling for her to go on."I found out that she..." Her voice started cracking. "...they slept together...while he was still with me."It looked like she was gonna break down any second, so I took her in my arms and hugged her. I know what she's feeling, and it sure as hell doesn't feel good. I feel horrible that she's going through this too. I mean, sure she did this to me, but I'm just that good of a person. Well, if I like you."Brooke, I know all you feel like doing is crying, but there's no sense in crying over it." I said, lifting her head up from my shoulder. "Jake's gone now, so they can't do it anymore.""I know." She sniffled. "But it just hurts so bad. Ya know?""Yeah." I nodded. "I know.""And I wanna beat her...so so bad...just...I wanna watch her bleed...just watch her body as it pours out blood. I know she's your best friend and everything, but fuck I hate her so bad.""I understand. In all honesty, that's what I wanted to do to you. But thats just because I was mad at that moment. I was heated. But did I do anything to you? No. I just left it alone before I did something I knew I was gonna regret. Just leave her alone and let the heat cool down. You'll feel better."She nodded, agreeing with me."How did you get over it?" She asked."Well...by getting back together with Harry. He made me feel better..." I said awkwardly, knowing she can't do the same with Jake."Great." She groaned in frustration. "This is gonna take a while.""Its life." I said, sympathetically smiling at her.She sighed and opened the curtain again, stepping out of it and me following behind her. We walked back out into the store, and once she saw Eleanor, I saw her face harden and her fists clench. I elbowed her on her side, signaling for her to cool it down. She clenched her jaw and hung the shirt up on the rack."I remember that one time when Harry and Jake had an arm-wrestle..." Eleanor started off laughing.Oh God El. Not now. Bad timing. They didn't know we were there yet, they were just talking about old memories. And Eleanor just had to bring up Jake. I didn't even say anything. Icouldn't say anything. I was frozen."Harry slammed his hand down so hard on the car, it put a dent in the hood!" Eleanor finished and laughed, making Perrie and Danielle laugh too.I wanted to laugh, but Brooke was kind of scaring me right now. Her jaw is clenched, her mouth is tight, her fists were balled up, she just looked like that bully on the playground that nobody fucks with because they know better."And then that one time when me and Jake were playing 'Win The Shot, Call The Spot' and I had him masturbate with honey." She laughed, and Perrie and Danielle laughed with her."His hand kept getting stuck and he had to keep adding more every time it got stuck!" Danielle added while laughing.Eleanor was laughing, Danielle was laughing, Perrie was laughing, Brooke was pissed, and I'm standing over here scared to try to stop Brooke because I don't want her to blow up on me. I really don't feel like fighting."And then this one time when Jake--""THATS IT!!" Brooke shrieked and darted in a B-line towards Eleanor in pure rage.Eleanor turned her head at the last minute and Brooke jumped, literally jumped on her and they both fell on the floor with Brooke on top. She was punching her face in, and I ran as fast as I could over there to try and stop it. Perrie and Danielle were trying, but they were doing a poor job at it. Just before I got over there, Brooke got up and picked up Eleanor with her and ran her into a clothes rack, making both Eleanor and the clothes rack fall.But Brooke wasn't done. She picked Eleanor back up and was about to start punching her again, but Eleanor blocked one of the punches and took control for a bit. Eleanor ran Brooke against a shelf, making the shelf collapse, and now it was Eleanor punching Brooke. But it didn't take long for Brooke to take control again, kneeing Eleanor in her gut and punching her jaw when she was bent over. When Eleanor was on the floor face-down, Brooke got on top and grabbed her hair, slamming her head into the floor.Somehow, Eleanor gained enough energy to lift up her leg and kick the heel of her boots into Brooke's back, making Brooke arch her back in pain. While Brooke was distracted by the pain in her back, Eleanor somehow rolled them over so she was on top and started banging Brooke's head against the floor, but Brooke was still fighting back.In case you're wondering, me, Danielle, and Perrie were just...kinda standing there watching. Yeah. We're horrible friends. But soon, security came and pulled them off of each other and kicked all of us out the store."Nice going girls." Danielle said sarcastically."Blame this bimbo whore for attacking me!" Eleanor shouted, Perrie quickly holding her back."You're calling me the whore?!" Brooke shouted back, and I was quick to hold her back too."Yes I fucking am! Problem bitch?!""Just watch! Watch when Louis finds out what you've been doing you fucking slut!"
