Beck and Jade...forever?

Chap 1

Jade sprawled herself on her velvet couch in her room, absentmindedly snipping away at the ends of her coloured extensions. Stray strands of turquoise fell upon the velvet quilt. Jade was lost in thought at what Beck said to her this afternoon.

She was walking towards Beck's class. They were to meet up there then walk to their lockers together to meet up with the rest of his gang, and Cat. Just as she spotted Beck, a cheerleader came up behind Beck and squeezed his arm. "Nice biceps, Beck," giggled the brunette cheerleader as she squeezed Beck's arm playfully and leaned in to kiss Beck's cheek. "Uhh, thanks?" replied Beck.

Jade flew into a rage and literally tore the giggling cheerleader off her boyfriend's arm and flung her towards the concrete wall. "Oww!" shrieked the cheerleader and she started to cry as she bled from her tongue. Blood trickled out from the side of her mouth and her entourage of cheerleaders quickly rushed to her aid. "Jade! What did I say about controlling your temper? Seriously. Take a chill pill or we'll take one.", reprimanded Beck as he helped the cheerleader get to her feet.

Beck refused to hold Jade's hand as they walked towards their lockers and he was irritatingly nice to Tori. It was almost as if Beck was at his breaking point with her lack of anger management. It felt like a thousand stabs in Jade's heart but she just buried it. Just like all the other painful emotions. It helps keep the wrinkles away and the tear ducts dry.

"Fine, if he wants a non-jealous girlfriend, I'll give him a non- jealous girlfriend.", muttered Jade finally as she flicked the bits of synthetic hair off her bed. She looked at herself in her closet mirror and told herself aloud, "Jade. You're smart, hot, evil and...SECURE. I will no longer allow jealousy to take over me and I'll just change it to apathy." Yes. Apathy was Jade's best friend. A better friend than any human can be. Apathy helped her deal with her parents' disappointment that their daughter was not business minded, but of the creative sort. The disappointment of her schoolmates that she isn't "one of them". She doesn't need to conform, so she doesn't need to deal with being jealous either. "Beck's the one who should be jealous. I'm sick and tired of him not being jealous about ANYTHING." She flung the pair of scissors in her hand onto the floor and it broke into pieces.

She stomped out of her room and went to the kitchen to get something to eat. She was hungry from all that contemplation and decided she needed a reward for changing something that involved more apathy.

"Mmm...double dark chocolate chip cookies. Awesome.", thought Jade as she broke off pieces of it and slipped the pieces into her mouth.
