Hey everybody! This is a Bat story with minor Bade, the rating may change but I will give you a fair warning if it does. This first chapter is just a warm up really, to give you a feel of how I portray each character. I named the story Yin and Yang because I wanted it to represent Good and Evil and polar opposites. Sorry I just needed to explain that! Anyways enjoy!
Balance, that is one word that stood out in his mind.
"Balance." He tried the word out, satisfied with the way it rolled off his tongue, it sounded innocent and pure. Quickly he typed the word into his phone and scanned over the results.
"Balance, opposition of equal forces, a state in which two opposing forces or factors are of equal strength or importance so that they effectively cancel each other out and stability is maintained." He read out loud, his grin stretched from ear to ear as he logically rationalized the situation that he was in. The synonyms were equally as perfect, Harmony, Stability, Poise, Strength. His guilt had vanished and in its place grew excitement, now that the guilt was driven away he decided that it was okay to talk to her.

She thought so much these days, the same things circling her mind. The same person circling her mind, in class, at lunch, at home, when she slept. She could never tire of him, but she wished she could think about a boy like Robbie who adored her and would do anything to be with her. She winced as she took back the mere thought of ever being romantic with the, puppeteer. She had admitted it to him before she had admitted it to herself.
"Beck you're not allowed to say that you don't like Disney movies." She whined staring him down, as he smirked at the offense she had taken to his simple statement. They had been up later than usual, working on a project they had been assigned inside of Beck's RV. She sat across from him on his bed, a little too close for him, not close enough for her. They had intended to work on their project about the British film industry, however the conversation had shifted to Disney movies.
"Exactly who is going to stop me?" He mocked and she giggled growing tired of feigning being mad at him, he smiled at her and suddenly the grin she wore almost constantly disappeared.
"I love you." She wasn't sure if she had actually said it, her suspicions were confirmed when he gripped the back of her neck and slowly pulled her in before stopping moments before her face. He breathed and tightened his grip on the thigh he hadn't realized he grabbed in the first place. He brushed his lips against hers but the kiss never came as he struggled to separate from the redhead in which he yearned for. She grew impatient and leaned in but he backed up, never letting go of her. She whimpered and searched for an explanation in his eyes which he couldn't give. He kissed her neck slowly while repeating.
"I'm so sorry Cat."
She relived that moment over and over again, growing to hate and despise the mere millimeters that separated her lips from connecting with Beck's. They never spoke of the incident, she hadn't seen him outside of the group since that night two weeks ago, she knew he regretted it. She wished she could to, however she craved more and had to fight the urge to text him every waking moment. She sometimes dreamt that he would text her the three words that she had whispered to him that night, but she always awoke disappointed. She hated the feeling of being completely dependent on the raven haired boy. She was broken out of her thoughts by the familiar ring of her phone, she reached for it quickly. She read the message before smiling, before grinning, before laughing, before jumping out of bed and quickly getting ready to go see him. During which she never stopped staring at the screen which read.
I don't know what I'm feeling. Come over?

After what had happened between them, things continued as normal pretty much. Except for the look in Cat's eyes, he couldn't put a pin in it. He wouldn't describe it as a look of hurt, she didn't seem upset at him, it was knowing and expecting. He didn't know what she was expecting but he wanted to give in to whatever she wanted. At lunch, Jade was being oddly nice.
"Beck, you're a good guy." She randomly stated, he arched his eyebrow at her hoping she would elaborate, that is until Cat sat down at the table and he had a sudden urge to squirm away from his girlfriend.
"I'm lucky to have you is all I'm saying, you're one of a kind. I don't know shut up, I hate you." She explained but got flustered at his confused face, he found it quite cute actually, he felt torn at the same time with Cat humming to herself on the seat across from him.
"You're cute when you're nervous." He replied with a smile and she rolled her eyes before planting a chaste kiss on his lips, Cat glanced up to watch this, pushing her emotions down even though the pain showed in her eyes.
"Beck, what's your favorite dessert?" She asked, desperate to change the conversation from anything remotely related to Jade, he chuckled slightly before replying.
"I like chocolate I guess, so I guess chocolate cake." He answered, giving the redhead a quizzical look.
"Well I was just wondering, maybe if you wanted to dye your hair you could dye it into the color of your favorite dessert. Like me!" She replied causing Beck to laugh.
"You don't like my hair?" He placed his hand on his heart and feigned being hurt. She giggled at him before quietly adding.
"I love it just the way it is." Her foot rubbed against his lightly and she continued to hum her song and look down at her food, Beck glanced over at Jade and to his pleasure she was staring at her nails.

He had waited for her reply, it had been going on ten minutes, he supposed she could be asleep but he prayed that was not the case. In the middle of his thoughts he was interrupted by a knock on his door, he pounced off his seat on his bed and opened the door. He tried to withhold his excitement as the giddy redhead looked up at him, he smiled trying to form the right words in his mouth. She knew exactly what she wanted to do though and she captured him in a tight hug which took him by surprise, she was small but compared to Beck's 6'2 frame, she looked tiny. He smelt her hair and he noted that she smelt like a mixture between cherries and vanilla, it suited her. She looked up at him and he had a strong urge to kiss her but he held back, remembering Jade. Her smile faltered slightly and he remembered, balance. Softly his lips touched hers, he pulled back, wondering if he would feel guilty that he had cheated. But the look on Cat's face made his mind go numb and he realized nothing else mattered.
"I want to be with you." She spoke out quietly, she was done with hiding her feelings and she wanted to be able to call Beck hers.
"I know." His reply was soft and it indirectly told her that he was still going to date Jade. She felt a pang in her stomach, which was soon replaced by butterflies as his lips once again connected with hers, this time in a more passionate way. Instead of talking he showed her that she meant something to him.
"Becky, can I stay here tonight?" Her soft voice asked him as she nuzzled into his chest, he felt her hot moist breath through his shirt.
"Yeah." The short answer made Cat's heartbeat and she jumped in glee, before diving into Beck's bed, quickly getting under the covers before he had a chance to blink.
"Want to watch a movie?" He chuckled, amused by the cheeriness of the beautiful girl who had just made herself comfortable in his bed.
"Yes please! We could watch a Disney movie, and I could show you why they are so amazing!" She exclaimed bouncing slightly, of course he had only told her he didn't like Disney movies to tease her. So much to her surprise he pulled out Tangled, she clapped her hands and he popped it in before joining her in the bed. She made it until the boat scene, than her eyes fluttered.
"I love you." She muttered and he planted a soft kiss on her lips, he hoped to god that she meant it. He knew to anybody else it may seem wrong, but it only made sense to him. He needed a balance between certain things. Jade was edgy and rough, Cat was smooth and soft, Jade was abrasive and mean, Cat was shy and nice, Jade was scary, Cat was cute. They were polar opposites, too much of Jade could be a bad thing and he was just balancing her out. Something
inside of him knew that too much of Cat wasn't enough. He drifted off to sleep proud of himself for today, he found a way to balance good and evil.
Okay so I'm nervous what'd you think. This chapter is really kind of just me trying to test the waters, I really want to expand this archive because I really do love Victorious and Bat, hopefully it will encourage others to write as well. Please review and tell me what you thought, hopefully I'll be able to update soon but I'm an emotional writer so depending on what kind of feedback I get it may be sooner or later. Thanks so much for reading!
