"Awww look at them."

"I'm taking a picture of this."

"So adorable!"

"We should wake them up."

Harry stirred awake when he heard voices around him. He tried stretching but could not. With his left hand, he rubbed his eyes. Slowly, he opened his green orbs to be met with six faces, all grinning like fools at him. He groaned, annoyed that everyone was already staring at him. He tried moving his right arm but couldn't, as though a weight has been placed on it. Harry looked down and was greeted by a familiar head of curly hair, her face snuggled into his bare chest. She was laying on his arm and Harry saw that his hand was on her back.

Oh. So that explains why they were grinning stupidly.

"Shut up," he mumbled when he heard giggling.

"Just want to inform you, we're all ready and will prepare breakfast now," Jesy informed and linked her arms with Liam as they shooed the other four kids out of the room.

"Why must we leave?" He heard Perrie complaining.

"Give them a room," Harry heard Louis saying before the door close after them.

"Jade, wake up," He shook her shoulders lightly. Jade stirred a little but did not wake up.

"Jade," he shook a little harder, his free hand caressing her face.

Jade opened her eyes slowly and the first thing she saw was Harry's dimpled smile.

"Hey," he greeted.

"Hey," she said back, her voice still husky from sleep. Jade continued to lie down, showing no signs of getting up.

"We should get up, the rests are waiting for us," Harry said. Jade shot up from her position, her eyes now widened.

"You mean, they saw us?"

"Yeah, we did wake up late."

"No. no," Jade shook her head. "Perrie and Leigh will tease the hell out of me, Jesy will be disappointed in me!"

"Why will Jesy be disappointed in you?"

"Because!" she exclaimed, "Because after all, I still run back to you."

"And I can't! I can't! You have a girlfriend!"

"Can you for once, stop bringing up my girlfriend?" Harry let out an exasperated sigh.

"But that's the truth, isn't it? I won't let myself be the third party. It's time you know what you want," Jade sighed and took her clothes along so that she could freshen up.

When Jade opened the door, Perrie and Louis were awkwardly standing outside, Perrie whistling while looking away. Niall was leaning against the wall beside the door, giving her a small wave with a guilty look on his face. Leigh-Anne stood a bit further, her eyes filled with pity for the younger girl. Jesy and Liam were taking something out from the car boot.

"You okay?" Perrie inquired voice laced with concern.

"Yeah, can you accompany me while I shower?"

"Want to talk about what happened?" Perrie asked as they walk towards the toilet.

"Not really."

Perrie did not push into the matter. She knows the girl for 7 years now, and she understands that Jade will open up on her own once she's ready.

"Perrie," Jade called out from the toilet. "I need your help."

"Yes, babe?" Perrie leaned against the wall, waiting for Jade's reply.
