{Phoebe's POV}
Sunday Morning - Airport
"Okay, are you sure you've got everything?" Perrie stressed as she counted the three bags. I nodded and patted her shoulder, laughing at her.
"Yes. Now let me go in the airport!" I chuckled. I'd said my goodbyes to mum at home, she said that she wanted to watch Coronation Street, rather than wave her youngest child off to America. Perrie quickly hugged me and whispered a thank you into my ear.
I don't know how, but I managed to pull three cases into the airport and check them into the luggage area, and come out with just my carryon. I walked to the gate that I was told to go to, gate 21, and saw three familiar girls. Three girls off my posters. Three girls known as Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirwall, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock. "PEZ!" Jade screamed and ran towards me. She wrapped me in a tight hug and started to squeal.
"JADE!" I played along. She pulled away and studied my face.
"You look different," She commented. Oh no. Was she starting to catch on? "New concealer?" She asked. I breathed out shakily.
"Yeah," I said quietly. Jade swung her arm over my shoulder and lead me other to the other two girls, who were practically falling asleep on the airport chairs. "LEIGH-ANNE! JESY!" I squealed enthusiastically and they both did a groan, but held their arms out for hugs. I hugged them. I guess I was playing the role of Perrie perfectly.
Our flight was called, and I trudged onto the jet - a private one, if you must know - and took a seat at the back. Jade was talking about how the One Direction boys were going to fly with us, and were expected any minute. I didn't know we were all flying together. Oh. Wait. Isn't Perrie dating Zayn Malik, from One Direction? I pulled out my {read: Perrie's} iPhone and tapped on Phoebe. I texted:
Are you dating Zayn? Do I have to pretend date him, too? X
Not even seconds later, she replied with a yes and a yes. I'm going to have to act like a couple with Zayn? Talk about awkward. There was soon a rowdy noise as I heard deep voices emerge through the jet. I stood up from my small area in the back and walked through to see One Direction settling into their seats. "Perrie!" Zayn called and ran over to me.
Next thing I knew, his lips were on mine.
My eyes widened as I stood still. To play Perrie, I was going to have to kiss back. So... I did. I gently kissed Zayn back. I didn't get any butterflies or anything special - it was just a kiss. I smiled at him and wrapped my arms around his waist, resting my head on his chest. Then I greeted the other boys. Perrie's lucky that I'm a Directioner, because I wouldn't of known their names and it would've been extremely awkward.
"Louis!" I jumped up and hugged him. He kissed my forehead. Woah, okay. Is Perrie this friendly with all the boys? I then went to Harry and hugged him, while yelling, "Harry!" At the same time. "Liam!" I repeated, hugging him. Liam also kissed my forehead. Then I went to Niall, who was sat on the couch. I sat beside him and gave him a sloth hug from the side. "Niall!" He kissed my cheek, and I froze. Butterflies and butterflies and more and more butterflies. I quickly redeemed myself and jumped up, going back to Zayn.
"I'm tired," Liam whined. "IT'S TOO EARLY!" He yelled.
"Stop," I plugged my ears. "It's too early for screaming, too." Liam chuckled and said sorry. Eventually, the jet took off, and Zayn set up the laptop, with a movie on it. He had snuggled into me and I had to snuggle back. Niall was asleep on a chair while Liam cooed over him and Louis took a picture for Twitter and Instagram. Harry was reading. Jade and Jesy were sorting out their carryons and Leigh-Anne was asleep at the back of the jet.
And that's how it stayed for the whole journey.

"Woah," I said as we stepped out of the airport. Fans. Every. Where. I looked to Zayn who wrapped an arm around my waist, his arm falling on my hip, making the fans cheer loudly. I guess they like a bit of Zerrie. Both Zayn and I waded our way though the crowd to the car that was waiting for us all. I was going with the One Direction boys and Jesy, Jade and Leigh-Anne had a separate car.
"That was crazy," I muttered as I fixed my hair, sliding my sunglass up so they'd balance on my head. Zayn leant his chin on my shoulder. I felt really uncomfortable about this, and I was thinking of even telling Zayn that I wasn't Perrie. He deserves it, because technically, he's cheating on Perrie. I made a promise to myself to call Perrie later on and ask her about that.
"Tell me about it!" Niall wiped fake sweat off his forehead and I smiled at him. He was adorable. I sighed and grabbed my phone, tapping away and going onto Twitter, which was already logged in, so I didn't have to ask Perrie for the password.
@LittleMixOffic: just landed in LA! Can't wait to see you guys at our shows! xxPerriexx
I had thought that if I was portraying Perrie, she had to post still on the Little Mix twitter account. I didn't really care if the Twitter world thought Perrie was inactive; Zayn didn't go on his twitter for months, so why can't Perrie? Well, me.
"Are we going to a hotel?" Zayn asked. He yawned afterwards.
"Yeah," Harry said slowly. "It's that plaza one. It's nice." He said.
I smiled and looked down. Then I realised something massive. Perrie has her ears pierced: and I don't.
