Everyone that went to Hollywood Arts knew one thing: Jade was incredibly possessive of Beck.
Everyone that went to Hollywood Arts for more than a week knew Beck was just as bad, maybe even worse.
Most guys were too afraid of Jade to flirt with her, so it didn't come up that often; but they were at the beach, where no one knew her, and she was wearing a bikini.
Beck was about ten seconds away from taking the jacket from his bag and wrapping her up in it so guys would stop staring. However, self preservation kicked in and he decided against that particular course of action. He settled for slipping a possessive arm around her shoulder as they headed for the water to cool off.
After about an hour of goofing around in the water, they were now laying out on his beach towel.
"Hey Beck, could you go get us some ice cream?"
He would've given some sort of protest, but this was one of the rare times she actually asked for something so he decided to let it slide.
"Vanilla?"
She smiled, "Yes please"
She was always nice…nicer when it was just them. Being around other people made her cranky.
The line wasn't long, but it wasn't short either so it took him about ten minutes to actually get the ice cream. From where he was he saw Jade talking to some guy. This alone wasn't enough to invoke his jealousy, merely curiosity. As he walked closer he began to hear their conversation.
"For the last freaking time I Am Not Interested! Now get away from me!"
"Oh come on, stop playing hard to get."
Curiosity gone. Anger making an entrance.
"I believe she told you to get away from her" he ordered with clenched teeth.
The guy stood up. "And what are you gonna do about it?"
Beck pretended to think about it for a minute. Then he punched the dude in the face.
Well that hurt a lot more than movies made it look like.
