First story I have ever written. Hopefully this turns out good. Total Cade eventually, I'm obsessed. =)
"You have got to be fucking kidding me." The raven-haired girl growls as she gets out of the car.
"Come on, babe" Beck tries. "It'll be fun."
"If frying in the sun while breathing in animal stink is fun then yes, I'm sure it will be loads of fun." Raves Jade as she starts walking back towards the school.
"Pleeease Jade, I want Mr. Purple to meet his relatives." Begs the hyped up redhead. "Pleeeeease!" She all but yells while hanging out the car window, swinging that stupid purple giraffe at me.
"He can go see them by himself for all I care. I'm not going to a stupid zoo."
I can't believe they really thought that I would want to go. Out of anyone these two should definitely know better. In case you're wondering what's going on let me fill you in.
At the end of school today I was kept from my locker by a bouncy redhead. When I got there she was leaning on it and shaking so much I thought she was going to loosen it's hinges.
"What do you want Cat?" "I'd really like to get out of here before tomorrow ya know." The un-amused tone in my voice as usual did nothing to the girl's emotions.
"Aren't you excited?" She beamed.
"And why would I be excited?"
"Don't be silly, Jade. I'm going too." She still isn't making an sense to me, even less so than usual.
"Cat, sweetie, what the hell are you talking about?" I'm starting to get impatient and even though it's Cat it's still difficult to stay calm.
"You mean Beck didn't tell you yet?" She finally replaces the face splitting smile for a normal one. "Yay, that means I get to tell you!" And it's back. "We're going.."
"Out to someone's favorite place ever." Beck comes up from behind and cuts her off.
Confusion and sadness crosses her face before I see Beck look at her. It's like a switch was flipped and she's right back to happy.
"Wait, my favorite place or Cat's?" I question as I finally scoot the redhead away from my locker.I have to physically grab her by the shoulders and move her out of the way.
"Yours." Beck simply states. "We talked about it a few days ago."
"Does it involve caffeine?" I question, raising a brow.
"Of course" He smiles. "Lets get going before it gets too late. I want to see the performance today."
"Fine, lets go" I agree, I slam my locker shut to show some annoyance even though any place with coffee is a great place in my book.
Now back to what's happening now. They tried to trick me. Cat being Cat just couldn't help herself, she spilled. The girl was literally sitting stone faced in the backseat, trying to stay completely still and quiet. Of course I was going to ask what the deal was and when I did she told everything. They were really taking me to meet up with the rest of our group (uck of course adding Rex in there too) at the zoo. I hate zoos. Not only because its outside in the daytime but they have animals, including ducks. I don't even like Daffy duck.
Anyways, Cat's revelation resulted in Beck telling her that she should have at least waited until we were out of the parking lot to tell me. So, I'm on my way back into school. I'll get a ride from my mother if I have to because there is now way I'm going.
"What if we really do stop for coffee on the way?" Beck trying to bribe me, you would be surprised at how regular of a thing that actually is.
"No, no amount of coffee would make it bearable."
"Please Jadey, I promise I won't try to see the ducks and I'll be real quiet the whole time." Cat pleads. She's starting to pucker which means the puppy eyes are next.
"Don't make promises you can't keep, Cat." I stop walking and look at her to make sure she knows I mean it. And here comes the eyes.
"But I can be real quiet and I don't even wanna see any ducks, I can't look at a duck without remembering this one time my brother was in the park and "
"Cat!, No, that's it, you guys go, I'm not." I'm starting to get really irritated. Oh god she's making the crying face. I can't do this.
"I'll be on my best behavior, I really want you to go."
She's sniffling now and I really have no choice. Cat crying is probably the only thing that I can't handle in this world. It's not like when Vega cries and I get all happy inside or even when Robbie cries and I want to slap him and tell him to man up. It's completely heart shattering but, you will never hear me admit that out loud.
"Cat, don't cry." I dropped my usual snarkyness.
She knows I hate it when she cries. She knows that that is the way to get her way with me.
"I can't help it, I really want to spend the day with all my friends, especially my best friend." And there it goes, it's only a couple tears but it does the trick.
Any hardness left in my face is gone and if anyone else had been around besides these two I would have been furious. No one else see's me like this.
"Fine, I'll go but, you owe me." I say with the sharpest tone I can manage. "And if you don't stay out of that window you won't get your surprise."
"Oh what is it!" She squeals as she falls back into the car.
I pull a strawberry sucker out of my purse and hand it to the waiting girl. She snatches it and before I even turn to look at her she has it unwrapped and in her mouth. Beck just looks at me and smiles. I wonder if he would smile if he knew any of my reasons for giving that to Cat.
The very little kind part of me loves making the girl smile and the horrible perve part of me just loves watching her with it. I already know before you even say it, I'm a horrible person. Dating the most amazing guy ever and perving over the most innocent girl ever. It's not like I'm doing it all on purpose. Trust me I've tried for months to not feel these things. I just can't help it. I tried everything to not think of Cat that way and to be in love with Beck again, even it. Sure, I love Beck and he really does make me happy. There's just no spark, no butterflies. He makes me laugh and feel safe though. He's pretty much like a brother in a twisted way, it's almost like we're twins even. How creepy is that? I know right? I refuse to hurt him though. Even if it's possible with me and Cat I would still never leave him, especially for a girl. I love him too much.
He grabs my hand and it thankfully pulls me out of my head. I look over and give him a smile. I don't deserve him, not even a little.
