Don't Forget You're Mine || Jerrie

30

A/n: hi! It's been a while, and I sincerely apologize for not updating for so long. However, this delay was due to good reasons, so that's something:)

Just gonna be honest with you guys, I'm starting to wrap up this fanfic. It was originally meant to be much shorter, but I like how it turned out! So obviously there are gonna be more updates and probably an epilogue at the end, but if there are some plot lines you feel like didn't get a proper ending yet, please let me know! I'm mainly talking about minor ones I might have forgotten, but anything that comes up would help me give this story the ending it deserves.

Enjoy <3

"So I'll pick you up from the O2 and we'll go straight from there?" Jed asks Jade as she looks at his face on her phone screen, and hears his voice through her earphones. Today is a rare day in which both Jade and Jed have found themselves in London at the same time, and they are planning to go out right after Little Mix's guest appearance at Jason Derulo's show.

Jade is feeling quite down today. She is not looking forward to performing with Jason, because she still holds some resentment for having to fight with management over whether this song will be a single or not, and after it was decided it will be, what its video was going to look like. Then, there was her unclear situation with Jed. She feels like he deserves to know that she kissed Perrie, but at the same time, she does not want to tell him about it all. She has not known him long enough to correctly assume how he is going to react, and does not want to find out. So in the meantime, she makes excuses for herself. Like that maybe Jed won't care at all, because Perrie is a woman and that will make him see it differently, like it is not really cheating. It might now be so bad after all.

"Jade?" Jed asks, and Jade comes back to reality. There is plenty of noise and people around her, as they are about to go on stage, and she finds it hard to focus on anything.

"Yeah, sure," she finally replies. "Do you mind if I invite a couple of friends as well?" She quickly asks, before she has the time to regret her own words. Jed and her have been dating for about a month now, but truth is, Jade does not feel comfortable around him just yet. Not as his girlfriend, at least. She would much rather it if there were other people who came along, and knows exactly who she wants there. Jed, however, is not too excited about this idea. This is one of the rare nights they get to spend with each other, and he does not necessarily want it to include anyone else. "I want you to meet my friends," Jade tries convincing.

"You know what? Sure. I want to meet your friends," Jed says and cracks a smile, making Jade's heart race; she cannot wait to invite Perrie. It has been forever since they last hung out like this.

"I gotta go, but I'll talk to you later," Jade tells Jed. They are still in the awkward stage of the relationship, where they have not said their I love yous yet, and no goodbye feels natural.

"Okay. See you," he replies and hangs up. Jade takes out her earphones and immediately rushes to find Perrie. Luckily, she is only a few steps away, getting her makeup retouched by Adam. "Hi," Jade begins.

"Hi Jadey," Perrie replies with the smile she has saved just for her.

"Jed and I are going out tonight, and I was wondering if wanted to come too," Jade asks, not directing her words towards Adam or Perrie, but hoping Perrie will be the one to say yes.

"Oh, where are you going?" Perrie asks.

"I'm not entirely sure yet, but I think it's going to be the Drama Park Lane. Jed likes this place a lot," Jade answers, disconnecting her gaze from Perrie's as she mentions Jed's name yet again.
