Chapter 29

Perrie's POV

"Baby wake up. We are home" I heard Jade's angelic voice calling me. I opened my eyes and lifted my head from her shoulder, meeting her beautiful brown one.

"I didn't expect you to wake up this quick Pez" She let out a few cute giggles. I rolled my eyes playfully and smiled goofily at the brunette beauty in front of me.

"Let's go home yeah?" I nodded and followed her out of the car. We laced our fingers together and walked inside our house.

An uneasy feeling came up when all the questions started clouding up my head once again. I guessed Jade noticed my body tensed up, as she stopped walking and turned to me with a concern look. I gave her a weak smile leading her to the living room, and sat us down at the couch. It's time to talk

"Jade there is something I wanna ask you...and please promise me you will answer it honestly, even if you think it might hurt me..." I managed to speak after minutes of silence pondering what's the best way to start the conversation.

I held her small hands in mines, looking straight into her eyes, hopefully she could see the strength in them so she won't be scared to tell me anything. She studied my face for seconds, and slowly nodding her head.

"Do you think I am being too clingy sometimes? Like you want to have some alone time? I understand if y-"

"No baby no!" I stopped when she cut me off. She retrieved her hands and raised them up to cup my face. I closed my eyes for seconds, enjoying the warmth of her palm.

"You will never be too clingy Pez cause I could never get enough of you" Her voice laced with the honesty I was hoping for, and I could see the sincerity in her chocolate eyes. I smiled at her answer as this is the one I want, but it soon disappeared as I was confused by her contradicted behaviour at the club.

"But...why I feel like you...you didn't want to be with me at the club?" I raised my concern at the one question that had been stuck in my head all night.

I could see Jade biting her lip nervously at my query. I raised my hand and pressed my index finger on her chin, while my thumb pulled down at her bottom lip, releasing it from between her teeth. I could see her lips still trembling slightly due to how nervous she was, so I leaned in and pressed my lips on her gently, hopefully to calm her down. I smiled when I felt her kissing me back.

"You can tell me anything Jade" I whispered against her lips.

"Even if it's stupid?" She muttered and pressed her lips firmly on mines, not waiting for my answer. I kissed her back in no time as I knew she was still afraid to tell me the answer, and I want to show her there was nothing to worry about. I pulled away shortly and push back a loose strand of her beautiful brown hair.

"Anything. I promise" I caressed her cheek softly. She smiled at me for a second and took a deep breath, then looked at me with determination in her eyes. I knew she is ready to tell me now.

"You remember what I told you at the club?" I searched for all the conversation we had earlier in my head and one caught my attention.

"When you said I should relax and have fun, and stop worrying about you?" I asked tentatively

"Yes. And that's why I want you to keep talking with Luke."

"W-What? I don't understand..." I frowned not getting what she meant. She sighed and smoothed my furrowed eyebrows with her slender fingers.

"I want you to enjoy the night Perrie. If you stay with me the whole night, you would be stressed out fearing of what happened last time would happen to me again. I know you are still blaming yourself babe. I could see the pain and guilt in your eyes every time it has been brought up. When I walked out of the bathroom, I saw you were having fun with him, so I wanted to keep it that way." She explained and I could hear her tone changed a little bit at the last sentence, but I was not sure what it was. I decided to leave it and rethought what she said once again, then realization hit me. She distanced herself so I could stop worrying about her and enjoy the night.

"No Jade I would enjoy the night a whole lot more if I got to spend with you. You don't know how bad I wanted to just leave him and be with you, but I didn't because I thought you needed space..."

"No I wanted to be with you just as bad! It's just...I don't want to be a burden to you..." She looked down and mumbled the last sentence quietly, but I could still hear what she said. My heart broke when I heard her words.

"NO JADE YOU ARE NEVER A BURDEN TO ME!" Her head shot up at my sudden outburst, but I couldn't control myself as my blood was boiling when I realized I made her feel this way. I am such a terrible girlfriend. I took a few deep breath trying to calm myself down. When I did, I took her hands in mine and continued.

"I admit I still feel a bit guilty of what happened last time and I did pay more attention tonight so it won't happen again, but it didn't mean I couldn't enjoy the night at all Jade...I enjoy every moment I spend with you. How can I not when I got to be with my perfect girlfriend right?" I winked at her, making her chuckled at my words. I like to make the atmosphere less tense every time we have a serious conversation, I think it could make us more comfortable and easier to speak the words that were too afraid of letting out.

"You are never a burden to me love. You are my world. You are my everything. Please don't ever think like that." I cupped her face and looked deeply into her hazel eyes.

"And it's in my nature to protect you, not because you are weak or anything. I feel contented knowing that I could keep you safe Jade, and it's never stressful to protect the one you love." I hope all these words were enough to assure her to drop the negative thought. A bright smile showed on her face moment after, and I knew she took in what I have said. But then it disappeared too soon for my liking.

"Is there something still bothering you baba?" I asked worriedly, stroking her cheek softly with my thumb

"Um...it's j-just you seems having a lot of fun with Luke." She spoke in the same tone she used before, and I finally figured out what it was now. I couldn't prevent a huge grin from showing on my face.

"Baby. Are you jealous?" I smirked when I saw her eyes widened

"I-I..." She tried to say something, but nothing came out. I giggled at how nervous she was.

"Baby he is just a friend. I met him like...twice only"

"But he is handsome and cool and he fancies you-" She mumbled

"Why would you know he fancies me? I don't even know myself?!" I cut in and let out a laugh

"Jesy said he was talking to you all night the first time you met..." Well thank you Jesy...

"Um...yeah maybe...but I don't feel the same way Jade. You know I only love you. My mind hasn't stopped thinking about you all night I didn't even remember anything he said." I ensured her

"But I saw you all smiling and laughing at what he said..." She protested. Aw she is really jealous

"I did laugh at some of his jokes...but most of time it was just an act to pretend I was paying attention to him, and showing you I was having fun like I thought you wanted me to" I explained. She was looking straightly into my eyes for seconds, her lips curved up when she knew I was telling the truth.

"You are a really great actress you know that Edwards?" She raised her eyebrows

"Yeah I know. I should have won a fucking Oscar for a long time you know" I said proudly, and we both burst out into laughter, laughing in each other's arms.

"I am sorry for what I did tonight baby. I never thought I would make you feel unwanted" She apologized once our laugh died down.

"It's alright baba. I am glad we have this talk." I paused and held her hands again.

"Just...please don't push me away again Jade. Let me protect my baby, my girlfriend, my future wife..." My eyes widened when I realized the two words I said at the end, and I could see Jade was just as shocked as I was. She probably think I am crazy to think about marrying her when we have only been together for a month. Great job you!

"OH MY GOSH Jade I don't know why I said that. I would love to marry you and one day I will, if you let me of course. But we have only been together for a month and I know it's too soon to talk about that. Oh and I haven't even proposed to you, which have to be absolutely perfect...OH GOD why am I still saying all these stuffs I should probably shut up now" I bit hardly on my lip, hoping I could never be able to open my mouth again. Stupid mouth! I wanted to dig a hole and bury myself right now. That's why I should never talk when I am freaking out...it would just make things worse. You are such an idiot Perrie Edwards!!!

"D-Do you...um..do you really mean that when you said...you...um...y-you want to marry me one day?" She looked down at our hands and playing with my finger. I followed her gaze and saw her right hand was fiddling with one of my finger specifically. My heart rate rise exponentially when I saw what that finger was. My left ring finger. I tried to think of what proper words to say as I didn't want any silly words to come out of my mouth again, but my mind was just...blank. So I decided to just let my heart speaks this time. I grabbed her left hand, making her gaze met mine. I place her hand on my chest, to where my heart is.

"Yes. I mean I know it's very early to say that, but it would be a dream comes true to marry you and to grow old with you. Jade I love you so much and I couldn't imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone else." I bit my lip anxiously, afraid of what she might say after my little speech, but soon relaxed when I saw a huge smile on her face, tears forming in her eyes.

"Do you remember asking me what I was thinking before our performance tonight?" This kinda caught me off guard as I expected her to give me a reply, good or bad, not asking me a question. I thought for a second and nodded

"You was smiling. It's the kind of smile that could light up the whole room" I smiled when I remembered the look on her face. I grinned at her and I could see a slight blush on her cheek.

"I was imagining our future...us getting married, having our own family and growing old together." She gave me a smile. The same smile that could light up my whole world. I...I don't know what to say. She fucking feels the same way like I do! I knew I must look absolutely startled right now cause Jade was giggling. She cupped my face and brushing it slightly, my face softened at her tender gesture.

"Perrie I just knew. I knew you are the one for me, nobody else. And I could never find someone else love me like you do. I would love to marry you one day and stay with you for the rest of my life" My heart is threatening to burst out right now as the joy is just too much I don't think my heart could contain. Oh god she wants to marry me. How am I got so lucky?

"I love you" I smashed my lips on her as I couldn't think of anything better to show her how happy I was. She kissed me back passionately and I feel like the luckiest person in the world right now. I am kissing my lovely girlfriend, and my future wife, who had stolen my heart the first time I met her. What is better than knowing the one you dearly love, loves you back just as much as you do? She is giving me the chance to spend my lifetime with her.

A matching smile appeared on our face when we pulled away, our eyes glittering with nothing but love. Time seems to have frozen as we were just smiling and gazing at each other fondly. I could never get tired of studying every small features of hers, even I know now I have the chance to admire at her beauty for the rest of my life. Our little moment came to a halt when Jade broke into a laugh.

"It's such a terrible decision to let you stay with Luke all night when I could have you all to myself" She shook her head laughing

"Yeah baby it's a really horrible decision." I nodded laughing lightly

"I am such an idiot..." She pouted

"No Jadey. I am the idiot. I am your idiot remember?" I smiled when I heard her cute giggles

"I am a fool then..."

"MY fool" I corrected her, earning a huge grin from my brunette

"Why am I such a fool when it comes to you....A, B, C, D, E-e-eee..." She paused and pondered for seconds. I guessed she felt like it wasn't the right word to sing.

"L-Love You" She changed the lyrics of our song and beamed at me when she found the right word.

"You know...you don't have to change the lyrics babe" I winked at her. She looked confused at first, but a smirk soon appeared on her face. She shifted her body to sit on my lap, wrapping her arms around my neck and legs around my waist.

"Repay time! Bedroom now baby!" She ordered

"YAS QUEEN!" I got up from the couch with her body securely attached to mine. I put my arms at her back making sure she won't fall, and wasted no time to rush to our bedroom.

What a eventful day it is. But I am glad it turned out perfectly at the end.
