A/N Okay, this is my first ever fanfiction and my first time writing in third person. I hope it's okay. I'm planning on making this a multi-chapter story but I'm not quite sure if it's good enough or not. So it's short. Anyways I'm rambling too much.
Disclaimer: I don't own Victorious or any of the characters.
Beck Oliver knew that this shouldn't have been the way they broke up. He didn't want to leave Jade, not really. But when they both fought it left them red in the face with a fire burning through them both. He knew there was no way he could be making her happy so how could he stay?
Jade West knew the breakup was coming. Hell, it had been her suggestion in the first place. She knew before she posed the question that he wouldn't come through the door. But there was always the hope that he would sitting in the back of her mind. He didn't. So how could she make him stay?
Beck sighed after an hour of playing cards with his friends. All he wanted to do was fall into bed and sleep but he knew that without Jade there tonight he wouldn't be able to. He dragged a hand down his face clutching desperately at his face.
"Maybe someone should check on Jadey." Mumbled Cat as she look down at her hand filled with queens. At the mention of Jade's name everyone's head snapped up. Just hearing Jade's name sent Beck into a flurry of emotions. Her name sounded foreign on Cat's lips. All Beck could hear were those times he had whispered her name in the darkness of his R.V and the soft curve of her smile that would appear after every time. Even when she wasn't here she managed to drive him crazy, they've only been separated for a few hours but he missed her and it hurt like hell.
"I'm sure she's fine Cat. Besides, Jade West never cries. Right?" Tori laughs nervously slowly sipping her drink. Right Beck rationalized. She wouldn't let this reduce her to a crying mess. He squeezed his eyes shut. But it would. He knew what Jade was like. He knew she cried like everyone else but this time it was because of him.
"I don't know man, that was pretty harsh. I mean you knew that she thought he was coming. And you know, he didn't. I-" Tori cut André off with a glare. "I'm gonna shut up now."
The group of friends silently continued playing their game of cards, each one thinking of a certain pale teenager.
Jade West was lying silently on her bed. She should have known what was going to happen. Beck has always been hers but lately it seemed like he wasn't. Sure, they still slept in the same bed most nights but it felt different. There was just something that had loosened her claim on him. She could feel them distancing but it didn't mean she stopped loving him. It made her struggle and fight to keep them together and it just pushed them farther apart. She would start a fight 'cause she needed to feel something. She could feel the anger bubbling under her skin. How was this my fault? She fucking tried. Jade let out a high pitched scream and pounded on her wall until her fist was raw. Life was never fucking fair, ever. Jade thought as she slid back down onto her bed staring at her ceiling. Tears threatened to fall but Jade West never cried, right?
