Perrie wakes up to the unpleasant sound of Jade vomiting everything she had had last night into the toilet. Perrie gets out of bed, then walks into the bathroom to hold Jade's hair. A few moments later, when Jade is done, she gets up and washes her face in the sink.
Last night, Perrie, Jade and Leigh-Anne went out to celebrate the end of their American promotion tour. They really did enjoy their time here, but home is always better. Today they have a day off, which is why Jade kept drinking last night even though she knew it was going to backfire, and tomorrow they will be performing here, in New York, and then head out to the airport shortly after.
"I'm going to get you something to eat," Perrie says and Jade nods. Perrie leaves the room, enters the elevator and gets to the hotel reception. There, she places an order for a delivery from Shake Shack to the hotel's adress for Jade and her. She waits at the reception for the next fifteen until the food arrives, and then takes it and goes back up to her room. Perrie places the paper bags on the table while Jade steps out of the bathroom, looking like she had just showered, and sends Perrie a weak smile.

The two women sit in front of each other at the small dining table in Jade's hotel room, each with her own burger and bag of chips. Jade eats slowly as her eyes remain close, since the light is bothering her and everything worsens her already bad headache.
"Jade," Perrie says with a smile. She laughs as Jade opens her eyes and looks at her with a tired look. "We won't see each other for like, thirteen days, starting tomorrow until we go back to work. So I was thinking maybe we should go out tomorrow, you and I. We've had so much fun this past month, we should celebrate it somehow. And I've got the perfect place."
"Like a date?" Jade asks. She laughs in order to make it sound like she is joking, but the truth is she does not want to joke about that at all. After everything they have done since that night in Sweden, how close they have grown, going on an actual date with Perrie feels like a dream.
"Yeah, let's make it a date," Perrie replies with a smile. She continues eating as if nothing happened, while Jade is filled with a wonderful feeling of joy. She is going on a real, proper date with Perrie Edwards. Maybe this whole thing could work out after all, maybe it is worth the risk. Jade kept telling herself this past month that kissing Perrie was nothing but a slip, but if it is so, she has had too many slips to count by now. Everything with Perrie is going so well, it feels natural and even right in some aspects. Maybe Jade should allow herself to fall for her bandmate; she knows Perrie - the blonde will not ever want to hurt her. It is scary, but when you put it like that, there is no real danger. "So I'll take you out tomorrow, after the Billboard Festival. The place we're going to is really perfect, you're going to love it."
