Once again I'm so sorry for not updating sooner, but i honestly just haven't been in a writing mood lately :( But I was today, so here we are ;)

"I should have fucking known it" Perrie cursed, eyeing Jade with a begrudging amount of resent.

Jade just stood still. Unable to move. To react. She should have known this was going to occur, too. Jade's luck had never been good to her, and should have predicted that her disastrous love life would continue to make her suffer.

The one person she never wanted to see again had just legally became her roommate and tenant.

Fuck.

She desperately wanted to forget about those piercing eyes. That heavenly complexion. Those glowing blonde locks. Her smooth skin. Her tantalizingly soft lips. She was getting there, slowly but surely.

Perrie didn't haunt her as much as she did before, but she still hung in the back of her head throughout the day, whether she allowed herself to think about her or not
was a different story.

But, as always, just as things were heading the way Jade wanted them to, they turned around and sped away in the wrong direction again.

Another part of the reason Jade didn't ever want to see this manipulative girl again was because she couldn't decipher how she truly felt about her.

Jade knew that she hated the sort of person Perrie was- the type of person that will do whatever that's required to get someone to fulfill their desires, then ruthlessly leave once the job is done- but she couldn't honestly convince herself that she hated Perrie herself for some inexplicable reason.

Jade was certainly undeniably captivated by her appearance, but she had also seen little glimpses of Perrie on that night that had unwillingly etched into her mind and jabbed at her like little razor-sharp  needles.

These glimpses somehow drew Jade to Perrie, and Jade felt deep down that perhaps this whole pretentious act was just put on. Well maybe Jade didn't feel like that, more liked she hoped that was the case.

There was just something about that girl that Jade couldn't let go of, no matter how hard she tried to drag herself away from this enigma.

It had crossed Jade's mind a few times that maybe she was falling in love with Perrie. However Jade just shrugged it off. That idea was a ridiculous, how could she love someone she'd only spent a few hours with?

But if that 'ridiculous idea' was true, Jade would hate it. She promised herself she'd never again let herself fall in love so easily again after her last tragic relationship.

She wanted to hate Perrie but she just couldn't bring herself to. Now that she had to endure living with those piercing eyes, that heavenly complexion, those glowing blonde locks, that smooth skin and those tantalizingly soft lips, she had an opportunity to truly see whether see hated or indeed really did love Perrie.

"That's your room" Sam gestured to Jade's old study. It had been redecorated and essential bedroom furniture had been added a few days beforehand.

"Sorry it's not much, but that's all we could afford. Feel free to add any more furniture or fix it up any way you like" Sam added.

"It'll do, for now" Perrie said, her eyes scanning the room, a blank expression upon her features, when suddenly a wiked smirk popped onto her face, "except the bed, I may need to get myself a larger one. I may occasionally have visitors"

Sam laughed while Jade's nose turned up in disgust. She didn't want a mental image of that. She can just imagine Perrie bringing someone home every single night just to piss her off, from what Jade had gathered from her brief encounters with the blonde she suspected that would be typical of her.
