Cat was sprawled out on the couch watching morning cartoons, her purple stuffed giraffe held tightly to her chest. This was her Saturday morning ritual, a time where she could unwind after a long week of school and extracurriculars. Nearby sat Sam, who was groggily eating Cat's latest food creation 'Sloppy Waffles'. Unlike Cat, she wasn't a morning person and had no interest in watching the overplayed reruns of Girly Cow. The blonde let out a satisfied sigh as she finished her plate and licked it clean.
"Mama likes her sloppy waffles." She exclaimed while rubbing her stomach.
"Sam, keep it down! Girly Cow is just about to land on the moon! I wonder if she knows it's made of cheese." Cat asked herself while petting her giraffe. Her comment received an eye roll from her roommate, who by now was back in the fridge rummaging for more food.
Seconds later the two girls heard a loud knock at the door, followed by a few more loud knocks that now just sounded like banging. Cat shrieked and fell to the floor, shielding her ears from the loud noise. Sam turned around with a tupperware full of meatballs only to drop them as she witnessed the door knocked off its hinges. "What the hell?!" She screamed as she looked at the discarded door then down at the meatballs she'd dropped.
"Guess Nona should've bought a sturdier door, too bad." said the intruder as she casually walked into the living room with suitcase in hand, plopping herself on the couch.
"Who are you?" asked Sam with a raised eyebrow as she followed her.
"I'm Jade, one of Red's friends. Well, her best friend." replied the goth with a smirk.
Cat got up from where she currently laid on the floor and quickly gave her old friend a hug, shrieking with happiness. Jade grew angry and yelled for her to let her let go, growing more and more impatient with every second spent in the redhead's arms. Once Cat noticed this she let go and apologized.
"So… Why are you here?" asked an annoyed Sam.
"Why, I'm staying here." answered Jade with a grin.
"Wait… What?!" exclaimed Sam and Cat simultaneously.
"My parents kicked me out. Thought I was too reckless and shit, its stupid believe me. However, they still agreed to paying my tuition at Hollywood Arts which I'll admit is… nice." She finished with a wince.
"What'd you do?" asked Sam, becoming actually interested in what the girl had to say.
"I had a few piercings here and there, dyed my hair, used my scissors to cut the remaining of Sikowitz's hair… let's just say I use scissors for a lot of things." She finished with a dark grin.
Sam was soon in awe of this girl, Jade reminded her so much of herself: rebellious, obnoxious, and crafty when it came to using regular household items as torture weapons. She approved, but asked herself '…and she's best friends with Cat?'.
"Jade, how long are planning on staying?" Cat asked with eyes glued back on the television screen.
"Why? You want me to leave already?" Jade asked in reply, giving her friend a menacing look. Cat soon took notice of this and jumped back in her seat startled.
"N-no reason, we just have a babysitting business we need to run. Nona is at Elderly Acres, thanks to a certain someone!" she said angrily, before being interrupted.
"I said I'm sorry for like the billionth time, gosh. Let. It. Gooooo." Sam emphasized
"Fine. Anyways, the two of us are babysitting so we can keep the place and enjoy bathing," Cat explained, receiving a laugh from Sam.
"You can't forget bathing!" Sam chimed in.
Jade raised an eyebrow and folded her arms across her chest, propping her feet up on the coffee table. Just idea of Cat running a babysitting business made her pity the poor children that walk through their now nonexistent door. Jade didn't like kids, but she felt bad for them since they'd be taken care of by a moron who doesn't even know how to work a microwave. The goth let out a chuckle and took out her black PearPhone and updated her status on The Slap. Her status read: "Cat's a babysitter, is this a joke? Looks like parents and kids alike have a lot more to be afraid of then just my scissors."
"Wait, Jade… What're writing on The Slap?" asked Cat.
"Oh, nothing. Hey, ever thought of renaming your babysitting business "Sam, Cat, and Jade's Babysitting Business"?" She asked jokingly and looked back down at her phone.
Cat laughed nervously in reply then abruptly stopped, shooting Sam a glance as if to ask her to do something. The blonde just shrugged and made her way back to the kitchen, making sure to step over the meaty mess she left. Cat sighed and ran after her not even noticing the meatballs on the floor and fell flat on her back.
"Are you okay?" Sam asked worriedly.
"I think I'm alright…" Cat replied.
"Not you, the meatballs you just squashed!" Sam exclaimed and flipped her friend onto her stomach, trying to salvage whatever remains were left of the meat and stuffing her face in the process.
"Here, let me help you." Jade offered as she walked over to Cat's side.
"Thank you!" the red-head exclaimed happily.
"Not you, Sam. Meatballs aren't going to eat themselves." the goth replied harshly
'This isn't going to be a short stay, is it?' Cat thought to herself and sighed, finally sitting up.
A/N: So, what'd you guys think? I know this isn't wonderfully written or anything, but it was an idea I wanted to see typed out. I saw "The Killer Tuna Jump" and honestly, Jade was THE only thing I enjoyed about the special. The plot was all over the place and sort've cliche, they could've delved deeper in both Sam and Cat's background stories. Anyways, I'd really appreciate a positive review and give me feedback. Should I or should I not continue?
