It Gets Better// Perrie Edwards

Interview- Take 2 (19)

"Little mix have some news and Pitch Perfect are coming back for a second movie? I'm, Chelsea, this is Lauren and this is you daily celeb run down!"

"Ok so lest first start with our four favourite Brits, Little mix!"

"Yes let's, I'm so excited about this!"

"Same! Okay so there's big news in little mix land ATM! Our girl Perrie posted this message on insta yesterday and we're flipping out!"

"Yes so as you can see the pic shows a beautiful floral covered bump and some pink shoes with the simple caption of the monkey covering his mouth emoji and the pregnant lady and we just can't!"

"We're so happy for this lovely lady who seems to be radiating beauty in this picture as she proudly shows of her bump. The little shoes hinting to a fact she's carrying a little girl. We couldn't be more happy for this lovely lady!"

"Yes! Although we do have to bring up the whole dad thing."

"Yep, so most likely the dad is her ex fiancé, Zayn Malik, who she split from in November last year after supposedly being dumped by text message. No news yet from his base but we hope everything is ok and commend Perrie for keeping this little one."

"Yes, so do you think she has any names yet?" 

"Knowing her yes, the mixers were quick to comment their congratulations and this has been widely accepted by most, although as with everything there have been some negative comments but we won't bring them up."

"Some mixers have drawn attention to the fact that this is why some of their interviews were cancelled towards the end of last year and why she fell ill during the interview with UK chat show host Graham Norton, if so we send our girl lots of love and hope she's feeling better now." 

"Yes, now enough about our girls across the pond let's talk about the lovely ladies from the cast of pitch perfect."

Jade switched the TV off after that and looked at me smiling, "see didn't I tell you it would be great, now let's get ready or Lauren is going to kill us, we have an interview with SugarScape today," she said before offering her hand to me to pull me up.

⌚️

"So girls how have we all been?" Jamie the interviewer asked us from across the coffee table next to the camera.

"Good, really excited to go on tour!" Jesy replied.

"I bet you are, when does it start?" 

"Next Friday is our first show in Rhyl." I said, pulling a funny face at the camera because the tour was so close.

"Wow so close and what can we expect?"

"Ooh lots of sass, fun and fierceness."Leigh-Anne explained, clicking her fingers after fierceness.

"Nice and what about dancing?"

"Yep some of that although it's going to be a bit less rigorous because of our newest member" Jade exclaimed, patting my bump.

"Ah yes, congratulations by the way, how are you feeling?"

"I'm good, better now, I was really poorly in the beginning but I'm doing much better now, just excited for everything really." I told him truthfully.

"I'm glad to hear, how far along are you?" 

"Just over 3 and a half months so still quite early." I said rubbing my small bump.

"Cool, so are we alright to ask you some fan questions, I'm sorry in advance, most of them are baby related."

"Yeah of course and we don't mind we're just as excited as the fans are!" Jade said excitedly.

"Great, so the first question comes from Helena and she asks 'what were your reactions when you found out Perrie was pregnant?' " he asked, looking at the question card.

"Erm well there were lots of tears and lots of hugs, we're so excited!" Jesy explained, looking at us, relaxing when she saw us nodding in agreement.

"How cute, ok the next question is from Louisa and she asked 'are you still doing the full tour?' "

"Yes we are although by the time we get to the tour in Europe in May and June, I may have to slow it down a bit but I'll still be singing, just maybe not dancing as well, I hope that is ok." I explained, slightly worried.

"I'm sure it is, you're preggers for goodness sake! Anyway the next question is from Josh and he says 'have you got any names yet, and for the other girls have you got any suggestions for names?' "

"Well Perrie has got some names but she won't tell us so that's annoying and as for suggestions I think the baby should be called Jessica after its favourite auntie" Jesy jokes causing all of us to laugh.

"No it should be called Leigh-Anne after its coolest aunt" Leigh argued brushing of her shoulder.

"I think we'll all agree it should be called Jade after it's god mom." Jade said in a American accent.

"No I'm gonna be the god mum." Jesy argued, looking at Jade, leaning across Leigh-Anne.

"I think you'll find it will be me." She said, poking her head out from in between them.

"Ha ha you guys are too much, yeah so as Jes said I have a couple of names that I'm flicking between but I'm sorry mixers it's going to be a surprise until she's born!" I told the camera, seeing all the complaints already.

"No how could you do that to us Perrie?" He said dramatically before continuing, "The next question is from Valentina and she asks 'how did you tell your family?' "

"Well basically I wanted to surprise them and it was around Christmas time so I gave my sister a t-shirt that said coolest auntie ever and my brother one that said uncle and then I got my dad and mum a scan picture in a frame."

"How cute is that?" Leigh mused

"Aw thanks Lee-Lee, what's even cuter is their reactions, I videoed it, so maybe I'll put it on insta later."

"Cool, I'll be waiting for that then! So that's all for this interview, thanks ladies and I wish you all the best with your tour and the pregnancy."

"Thank you!" We said in unison, before he shut the camera off. 

We said good bye and the girls lead me outside, walking through the crowds of people to the car.

My senses were overstimulated; all around me unfamiliar faces flashed by, like snapshots of lives I had no idea about. I was swamped by sounds I didn't want to hear, questions I didn't want to answer, voiced thoughts and twisted illusions. Body parts brushed against me, hands grazing my body accidentally, slight pressure placed on my waist, back and hand. I could feel the air grow thicker around me, every breath felt like I had run a marathon, tight and hard to achieve. The faces started to blur and twist. The voices became quiet and distant. The pressure felt less and less as my body became numb. And I let go, wrapping my hands around my girl, as I fell to the ground, the thick air suffocating me.

And then black.
