Cat knew she liked him. So why couldn't she tell him? Was she scared of him, or his girlfriend? Rejection or losing a friend of him and her? All she wanted was Beck Oliver. She was terrified of Jade finding out, because they were best friends. She dreamt of Beck, she thought of Beck and she did everything involving Beck. She never knew she liked him until a few months ago. She and Beck had been best friends since they were 6 and she never liked him that way. A few months ago, Cat, Beck, Tori and Andre were at the beach while Jade was with her mother in New York. Tori was talking to Andre on their blanket and Beck and Cat were splashing each other playfully in the ocean.

"OW! Beck, you splashed me in the eye!" the petite girl grabbed her eye and stared at Beck with her open eye.

"Maybe you deserved it!" Beck joked.

"WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?" Cat shrieked, forgetting about her hurt eye.

"Nothing, I was kidding! Calm down!" he embraced Cat and she forced him off.

"Let's keep playing!" she ran out into the ocean further, so it was up to her neon yellow bathing suit top. Cat turned and didn't see what was approaching behind her.

"Come on out Beck, it's so warm!" she yelled. Beck started to run to Cat, not to play, but to save her. He was too late. The huge wave crashed right on top of the red headed girl and she disappeared from Beck's sight.

"CAT!" he yelled, very concerned. "CAT!" he frantically swam around the ocean until he saw a small hand waving. He swam as fast as he could towards the hand, fighting the waves and everything else holding him back from getting Cat. He gripped Cat's tiny hand and pulled her onto his shoulders. A few people, including Tori and Andre, had gathered when they heard him yelling. He trudged through everything while the girl had a chokehold on his neck. He raced up the shore and fell to the ground. Cat released his neck and they both stared at each other.
"Thank you!" Cat screamed as she hugged Beck. "That isn't the second time I almost drowned. One time, I was in the ocean and my brother ran in and threw a ball at me and I went under!" Beck held Cat a little longer as he listened to her "Random Cat" story.

And that is how Cat knew she liked him, but how was she going to act on this?
