Ch. 41 Crazy Normal

{ P E R R I E }

I woke up in Jade's arms.

"Where am I?" I asked sleepily, rubbing my tired eyes. Jade broke away from her conversation to look down at me. She smiled and leaned in to kiss me.

"Airport," she whispered.

I sat up quickly, instantly getting light-headed and falling back onto Jade. She chuckled, steadying me.

"You alright?"

"Yeah, but how did I get here?"

She rolled her eyes. "You flew."

I giggled and kissed her nose. "I didn't know I could fly," I mused, repeating the same conversation Jade and I had weeks ago.

"You would've made a lovely bird, I'm sure of it."

I looked down and saw I was wearing the same clothes as yesterday. Jade noticed where I was looking, then reached into her carry on to pull out a small bag of clothes and my hygiene kit. Then she scooped me up once more, carrying me to the nearest bathroom, I hid my face in her neck from the paparazzi.

"I'll wait here," she mumbled, setting me down in front of the bathroom door. I was blinded momentarily by the camera flashes but somehow managed to shuffle into a bathroom stall, locking it quickly behind me.

I change into the outfit jade had picked out for me; blue skinny jeans, a white T-shirt and a Little Mix hoodie. I smiled as I threw on the hoodie, then brushed my teeth and hair. I slowly unlocked the stall and walked out of the bathroom. I could hear some fans screaming in both English and Spanish when they saw me. Jade was signing an autograph when the fan kindly pointed behind her to where I was standing, feeling light-headed as the pain where my stitches were seemed to increase. She saw me and flashed me a smile, handing the CD back to the girl. She jogged over and immediate swooped an arm under my knees, lifting me off the ground. The screams seemed to get louder as we walked through the crowd, my head back in Jade's neck as I tried to hold in cries of pain as fans bumped into my stitches.

"You alright?" she murmured, elbowing her way in between a few more girls.

"Peachy," I scoffed into her neck. She kissed my hair and pressed on until Sam saw us and moved the girls away. I sighed in relief as she sat down.

"Well that was intense," I muttered, snuggling into Jade's arms. She chuckled and hugged me close, cradling me in the middle of the airport. Jesy and Leigh-Anne were texting in the leather seats in front of us, while other Mix-Men and crew members hung around minding their own business.

"Hungry?" Jade asked. I shook my head.

"I'll wait 'til we're on the plane."

She nodded and relaxed into her seat. "Are you in pain?"

"Loads," I said honestly, glancing at my hip. Her face crumpled but she quickly covered it up.

"Do you think you can wait until we're on the plane? That way you can sleep comfortably."

I smiled and nodded, breathing deeply. "I know I can."

She relaxed a little but not much. "Okay. Only a little left to wait."

"Flight 275 to Madrid is now boarding"

"Hallelujah," I muttered, and Jade smiled sadly, standing up and adjusting me in her arms. Sam offered to take my bag, so Jade and I led the way to the plane.

We found our seats and I sat by the window. Jesy and Leigh-Anne were next to us. Sam and our new security guard, Mike, sat in front of us, and finally Aimee and Alexis were behind. Jade stuffed hers and my bag into the overhead cabin before taking a seat next to me, holding my pain relievers.
