Just to clarify; Jade is not annoyed with Macy for what happened with Nick. This chapter is probably going to revolve mainly around Nick and fill in what's happened in the time I've skipped.

I don't think anyone will mind too much ;)

Enjoy!

Jade's POV

After a lot of hugging, Macy and I sat down with soda's to catch up on the years we'd been apart.

Her and Nick's relationship had only grown since my contact had fizzled out with them.

"You never did really tell me why you and Nick broke up…" And Macy brought up the question I'd avoided for so long.

I sighed. "I'm not gonna lie to you Macy – though I'm surprised Nick hasn't told you – he kissed a random fan while he was going out with me because he thought it was you." I told her honestly.

"Oh." She whispered.

I smiled. "It's fine. You two are perfect anyway." Macy smiled a little at my words.

"I can't believe it's been so long. I'm not gonna lie either Jade; I almost forgot about you. Nick doesn't mention you but I doubt he's forgotten." Macy voiced her thoughts.

"I'd forget me if I was him. Or you." I shrugged.

"How? My memory was sparked by my aunt telling me she saw this amazing photographer at a Wedding she went to. She gave me a leaflet and everything!" Macy exclaimed. "You've got a great business set up here." She looked around the studio.

"Does Nick know you're here?" I asked.

Macy blushed. "Not as such. I said I was going to a photographers that my aunt recommended; which is true!" Macy beamed, winking at me with her subtle plan.

"Why do you need head shots?" I asked eagerly.

"I'm applying for a few gymnastics teams and they need head shots." Macy smiled.

"OO-OO-OO! How's Stella?" I exclaimed.

"She's great, the guys are paying her full, proper salary now and a few other bands have asked her to design for them and she's started her own fashion line as a side project too." Macy explained.

"We've all done so well. Every dream we had come true." I smiled a little at the great way things had turned out.

"Do you still talk to Frankie?"

"A little. He's kinda moved on from me, you told me he had a crush on you when you were in LA that summer?"

Macy nodded. "Yeah. He got over that after my awful cookie baking." We both digressed into giggles.

"I've missed you guys so much." I smiled.

"Surely you've made new friends?"

"Yeah but you guys were special; irreplaceable."

"N'aaww!" Macy cooed, pulling me into another hug.

"Oh, and I've got a date Friday night." I smiled.

"Wow. Good. Great." Macy smiled. "I'm so proud of you Jade; you've really made the best of a terrible situation with Nick."

"Nick wasn't that terrible a situation."

"You locked yourself in your room for 3 days," Macy reminded me.

"Oh yeah." I shrugged. "I was a mess. The move really helped me."

"How's your Dad?" Macy asked.

"Great. He's helping me move to LA in a couple of months. We've bought the studio and everything! It's a three story building and it's really cool." I explained.

"If you ever want any help just ask okay; I'm really glad I came to see you." Macy told me.

"I'm really glad you came back too. I was re-reading my old diaries the other day."

"Those were a good few months; it feels like much longer than a few months doesn't it?"

I nodded.

"So how is Nick?" I asked.

"He's good. Now that we're all out of school he's concentrating on his music completely. He's amazing." Macy mused, touching a silver heart locket that hung round her neck and going off in a bit of a daze.

"Are you going to tell him you came to see me?" I asked.

"Probably not. If you were ever mentioned in LA he'd go really quiet and blush and look guilty. We've learnt not to talk about you." Macy's smile faded.

"How're Kevin and Joe?" I asked eagerly.

"As you probably know, Kevin is now married to Danielle and Joe is going out with Ashley. I wanna let you in on a secret, though you can't tell anybody!" Macy emphasised.

I nodded and eagerly leaned in closer.

"Joe's proposing to her next week." Macy whispered; like someone could hear.

"Oh my god! That's so cool!" I enthused.

"The Wedding probably won't be for a while, because the guys are making a new album and have barely started the new songs and then Ashley is filming another movie so that will take another 6 months and they'll want to plan it properly so it will be quiet a way away." Macy explained.

"It'll still be amazing. Imagine how cute Frankie will look as one of the best men!" I cooed.

"He will. He's a cute kid. But I daren't get too close to him." Macy laughed and I joined her; blame her infectious laugh!

"So you wanna get on with those headshots?" I asked when my brain failed to give me another subject to talk about.

"Yeah sure." Macy smiled as we stood up.

I sat her on a stool and told her the best headshots were the simple black and white ones so she just smiled as I set up the camera; the photos were done in minutes.

"Done." I smiled as I pulled the camera away from my eye. Macy had moved the stool out the way and was trying on some of the many items of clothing I have acquired.

"Let's have some fun." She winked playfully at me and pulled some striking poses. I took loads of pictures. She had a black trilby on when she pulled her toe to her head from behind and blanaced on one foot; in a more gymnastical pose.

I laughed and continued snapping poses as she changed through hats and scarves and sunglasses.

It was my favourite afternoon of all the days I've spent taking pictures.

I miss everyone so much.
