You Owe Me (Little Mix Fanfiction)

Chapter 16

The saying, "Time flies when you're having fun" is completely accurate. All 5 of us were messing around, having fun with the two girls for what we thought was about 15 minutes, it was actually two whole hours, time for Felicity's medication. It must have worried the nurse that Felicity wasn't in her room, but she worked out where she was and came and found us. She gave Fel her medicine while she was in Leigh's room, but advised us to take her back to her room as the medication makes her drowsy.

Instead of taking Felicity back to her room, as we should have, we used the spare bed in Leigh-Anne's room and put her down to sleep. Once she was out, I sent Alicia to go play in the kids' playroom that the hospital had.

There were no kids left in the room and Leigh-Anne spoke up first.

"I always knew you were going to have kids, but I always assumed they would be your own." She joked; of course she would say that. We laughed, but Jade resumed the more serious side of all this,

"What'll management say?" That sobered us up, we hadn't thought about management. They couldn't do anything to me to make me not look after these girls, they could only get mad. I shrugged, not knowing what to say; honestly it was none of their business what we did in our personal lives, yet somehow they always managed to make it their concern.

"I don't know, but honestly it's none of their business." I sighed and Jade shrugged back at me. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Jesy forming a cheeky smirk on her face and I became immediately scared,

"So, Pez, you must have been, what, 14 when Alicia came along?" I glared at her as if to say, 'You're a bloody idiot.' She smirked back at me playfully and just as I was about to pull another face Jade stepped in saying,

"Alright, kids, let's break it up now. Try to keep it G rated." She pointed at Felicity, and even though she was asleep, we couldn't be too careful. It was only then that I noticed that Zayn wasn't in the room any more. I quickly looked around frantically, panicking slightly, until Leigh noticed and notified me,

"There was someone at the door so he went to talk to them." I nodded and mouthed a semi-silent ok, before I relaxed back into my chair.

The conversation started up again, but it was all over my head. I didn't hear a single word that was said, I probably didn't need to. All of my concentration was going into the pattern on my pants. I heard a noise at the door and looked up. Zayn's head was poking through the door and he was looking straight at me. He motioned for me to come with him and I complied.

I walked out and saw Blueberry standing there, looking rather impatient.

"Perrie," She spat, gee she really didn't like me, "You need to sign the adoption papers to get custody over the girls." I looked at Zayn,

"Can you go and get Alicia, I want to get her permission first." Zayn headed off in the direction of the playroom and I could feel the awkward tension growing between Blueberry and me. I tried not to lose it, but she was glaring at me as if I had just murdered her best friend. I shifted slightly due to how uncomfortable I was, it was only miniscule but Blueberry noticed,

"I don't know why you want those girls, they're just brats." I looked at her, horrified.

"They are not brats, they are sweet little girls. Obviously the reason they don't like you is because you don't like them." She looked taken aback, and didn't say anything after that. I was glad.

Zayn and Alicia walked back over and Alicia climbed onto my lap. Blueberry looked at me annoyed with a slight hint of, what I took to be, jealousy.

I turned my attention to Alicia,

"Alicia, Zayn and I want to look after you and Felicity. Is that ok with you?" She nodded excitedly and I took the papers off Blueberry.
