a/n: this one-shot was inspired by watching bullying awareness videos in school. I hope you enjoy:
" So tell me that you love me yeah! And tell me that I take your breath away. "Cat sang walking to 4th period. Her favorite class, it was her song writing class.
The song topic had to be hurt/bullying awareness. Cat was sad when she found out the topic, she wanted the topic to be love. It would've been pretty easy since her partner was her boyfriend. The Beck Oliver the perfect, pretty haired, hottie of Hollywood Arts. Sure all of the stuff said was true but Cat didn't love him for looks she loved him for his sensitive loving side.
Beck entered the room carrying a cup of coffee. The 2nd bell rang. Class begun. Cat walked up to her boyfriend.
"You coffee addict" she teased him and tippy-toes to kiss him.
"You red velvet cupcake addict" He teased back.
Cat giggled and went back to her seat; Beck took the one next to her.
"Welcome class." The teacher greeted. " As you know, we continue the week long song/poem writing project. The group with the best song gets to perform it at the bullying awareness concert" Everybody got to work.
"Cat have you ever been bullied?" Beck asked curiously.
Cat pretended she didn't hear and wrote down a poem:
That ten year old girl
Back in elementary school
To be exact the 5th grade
You were the one that made my life
Never to be the same
It was emotional abuse
What you use to do
Now I have haunting nightmares
Of you
That 10 year old girl
Who you teased
You killed her made her weak
You ask for her dark past
You hold the key
That 10 year old girl
So sweet and innocent
Was replaced by a scared teenage girl
Scared of the world
That 10 year old girl
Yet to discover the world
You bullied her till she cried
Almost wanted to die
That young girl grew up to be me
The broken teenage girl scared of what she will be
Beck read the poem.
"This is a true story?" he asked.
Cat shook her head.
"Oh Cat why didn't you tell me?" Beck asked.
"It was the past, I decided to let it go" Cat said, her voice strong.
Beck smiled.
"I'm glad you decided you let it go" Beck said. "so you're a forgive and forget?" he asked.
"I will never forget. But I can forgive. I can pretend it never happened. "Cat said.
"Cat if you're ever being hurt or bullied of any kind come to me okay" Beck said.
Cat started to cry and shook her head no. "I don't need people fighting my battles. I love you Beck but I could survive a little hurt here and then"
"You sure?'' Beck asked making sure his girl was okay.
"I'm sure, Beck. Bullying never hurt me as much as it did in the 5th grade." Cat said softly, her mind thinking about the memory.
Beck held her in his arms.
"I will never let anybody hurt you like that or in any other way again" he said promisingly.
" I believe you Beck. I believe and trust you more than anybody on this planet" Cat said looking at him.
"Same here my cupcake, same here" Beck said stroking her hair.
The bell rang. Beck kissed Cat on the cheek and walked her to her next class.
She never felt as safe and loved as she did in her whole entire life.
" I love you my coffee addict" she said as he walked to his class. He turned back to her.
" I love my red velvet cupcake addict" he said smiling.
Cat blew him an air-kiss.
As soon as Cat entered her class she got her phone and texted Beck:
To: Beck
Thank you for today in 4th period. You make me a better person
-luv and red velvet cupcakes
She got a reply almost instantly

Cat smiled at the signature. She was the one that made it up.
