Billie POV

After pouring my heart out to my mom about Jordan, I feel like it was the first time I ever really talked to someone about the situation other than my girlfriend. And to be honest, I really needed that.

Thanks to my mom. I stan her. Well, everyone does.

I've been thinking so much that I almost forgot I'm naked, shit.

"By the way, I'm sorry I just came in here. You just didn't answer any of my messages or even my calls. Were you sleeping? I'm sorry If I woke you-"

"No, no! It's fine, you're good. Just- next time tell me when you take a spare card to my room." I awkwardly laugh, rubbing my scalp.

"You know I always have a spare card, I need to check on you sometimes and you're not the best when it comes to replying to messages, you know that." She smiles.

She suddenly stops looking at me and her eyes shift to the floor, finding my clothes spread all over the place.
Then she looks back at me - an unreadable look on her face.

"Okay Billie, I uhm... I'm gonna leave you alone now, I'm sorry I just barged in."

"It's okay." I say, making her stand up and turn to leave.
"Mom."

Her eyes find mine once again.

"Yes, Baby?"

"I- I had something in mind for after tour... you know... something that would make Jordan happy."

"Oh, that's great. What are you thinking of?" She questions, sitting back down at the foot of my bed.

Jordan POV

"Maybe like-" I hear Billie say and immediately react, jumping up and hanging up the call.

Fuck. She really didn't know I could hear them.

"Man, Bil." I whisper to myself, smiling at how lucky I am.

It's Just a pity that I know she's about to surprise me.
Whatever... the important thing is that I couldn't hear any details.

The overthinking caused me to get tired pretty fast, which lead to me falling asleep with nothing but the love of my life on my mind.

Billie POV

I told my mom I was planning a trip for Jordan and Me. Just the two of us in Hawaii. Hell yes.

After talking about all the specifics - management, concert dates, blah blah blah - my mom finally left.

As the door falls close behind her, I sit up and turn to grab my phone which was faced down on the nightstand this whole time.

I lift it up, showing a black screen. Huh?
I thought our call continued.

"The fuck happened?" I wonder, unlocking it and clicking on Jordans number which was still all the way at the top.

When she doesn't answer, I shrug it off and decide it's time to take a nap. Just thinking about having to attend millions of meetings and interviews later makes me wanna throw up.

The literal only thing I want to do right now is cuddle my girlfriend and forget about the rest of the world - mostly about the media.

Jordan POV

A loud thump wakes me up from my slumber and to my surprise, I am immediately widely awake, feeling like I slept for years.

"Ugh!" I groan and slide out of my bed to go see what caused the horrendous noise downstairs.

I grab my phone along the way and walk out of my room and then into the kitchen to find Pamela at the stove, stirring something.
