She's my EX? || Jerrie x Leighade

XII - Forget You Not

Oh, I wish that we could chill like we used to do
Felt like there was no one in the room, except me and you.
Now I'm passing people in the street, wishing they were you
Oh, baby, baby, I'll forget you not..

Perrie didn't know how many sighs that she did for the past 10 minutes while awkwardly stirring her coffee. She is with Leigh Anne, in a coffee shop, she doesn't even know why did she accept her invitation. To think they are not even friends to begin with.

They are just sitting there, nobody dares to talk. You can hear the other people chatting, and aside from that, nothing.

Oh, if my sighs are counted to the sounds that I could hear, then I have a lot of sounds to contribute. Perrie thought to herself.

"So...." Leigh Anne finally breaking their silence. "How are you?"

Perrie finally stopped abusing her coffee from stirring it and meets Leigh Anne's gaze. "Um, okay? Thanks."

And Leigh Anne is the one who let out a sigh this time.

"To be honest, I don't know what to say. You know, it's me being aggressive of my decisions to meet you." the dark skin woman confessed.

"How do you know where I live?" Perrie asked.

Leigh Anne shrugs. "Jesy, perhaps?"

"Of course."

"How long have you been friends, If I may ask?" Leigh Anne asked, and she puts her hand under her chin. It looks like she's interviewing Perrie.

"Since we're college." the blonde answered and tilts her head. "Not to be rude, but you supposed to know that, right? Especially, you know I'm Jade's past."

Leigh Anne chuckled. An awkward chuckle. "Am I too obvious that I'm just making some topic in my head?"

Perrie sighed.

11th sigh. She thought.

"Okay, I'll straight to the point now." Leigh Anne finally said. Dropping her hands firmly on the table. "I know you talked to Jade in the middle of the night."

The young Geordie didn't react. She expected it, right at the time when Leigh Anne showed up in front of her door. She knows she wants to talk about Jade.

"And you might as well know that Jade called me." Perrie said. Her expression is straight. She doesn't want to know that she is intimidated by the woman in front of her.

"I understand Jade's condition. But you, I don't want you taking advantage of it." The curly haired woman told. While gripping tightly her cup of coffee.

And that's it. Perrie lost it. She can't stop herself from knitting her eyebrows together. "What are you talking about? Taking advantage? I beg your Pardon?"

"I'm not accusing or something. But I'm here just to remind you that Jade is about to get married with me. And, I know you respect that. I'm glad that you're helping Jade about her memories. But I hope that's just for the help. And not trying to take her away from me." Leigh Anne said while looking straight to the eye at Perrie. Her expression is pure seriousness.

But Perrie's expression hasn't changed. Her eyebrows are still knitting together. "Aren't you too paranoid?"

"Call this whatever you want. But I'm dead serious. I allow you to enter Jade's life again, but that doesn't mean I trust you."

"Do you really think I will steal Jade away from you?"

"Well, if not. It's clear. And if your intention with Jade is pure. Then, I don't really have to worry. I'm not this type of person. Judging how you look at me, you might think I'm a crazy-obsessed woman who will kill, if someone gets on my way." Leigh Anne smirk. "I'm just protecting what's mine. And if you were in my position. You'll do the same, right, Perrie?"
