Beck's POV
My girlfriend, Jade, and I entered the cafeteria together, hand in hand. As usual. But something was off. It was different. All of a sudden it hit me-none of the girls were staring at me.
None of them.
"Beck? Beck! HELLO BECK?!" Jade yells waving her hand in front of my face. I shake my head. "Huh? Oh sorry. What were you saying?"
Jade makes a face. "I didn't say anything. You're not sitting down. What's wrong?"
"Oh." I sit down lamely. "Well it's just that...uh...it's sorta embarrassing."
Jade rolls her eyes. "Please Beck. Don't be a buttcheek. What happened?"
"Um...none of the girls are staring at me."
Jade laughs. "Wow. I thought something tragic happened. HA!" I roll my eyes. "Seriously. It's true though, you have to admit it," I point out.
She shrugs. Soon, Andre and Robbie show up. And Rex. Apparently, Rex gets very offended if we don't include him.
"Hey man. Where's Tori and Cat?" Andre says to me. I shrug. "I don't know. Hey do you notice something different?" I ask him. Jade shoves me playfully. "Ignore him. He's just upset because none of the girls are looking at him," she says to him.
"I'm not upset," I insist. Jade shakes her head. Ugh. Jade's always getting jealous about other girls staring at me. Especially Tori. I mean, I guess I was a little attracted to Tori at first. I even tried to kiss her. But I swear, not anymore. I just think of her as a friend.
Soon, Tori and Cat come up. Andre clears his throat. "Hey," he says. They don't reply or look up. They stare at their reflections in their compact mirrors. "Hey," he tries again. Nothing. Then finally Jade yells "HEY!". They finally look up.
"What?" Cat asks. I raise my eyebrows. "What's going on?" I ask. Tori giggles. "You know that new kid? Justin?"
Jade rolls her eyes. "No. Is that why you guys are so worried about your appearance?"
Cat nods. "He is just SO cute. All the girls are totally in love with him. He's like a better, blonde, cuter version of Beck."
I laugh. It's just too funny for some reason. Andre starts talking to Tori and Jade to sing back up for him, when suddenly, Tori looks up.
"Oh. My. Gosh. There he is!" Tori says excitedly. We all look up.
A dude with blond hair walks towards the cafeteria. *Okay AUTHOR'S NOTE: guys just imagine him as Jason Dolley.* All the girls stare at him. I don't get what the big deal is. He looks normal to me at least.
"Whoa. HOT." Jade murmurs. I glare at her. She rolls her eyes. "What? He is cute, you gotta admit it." I shake my head and mutter something unintelligible and go back to eating. Stupid new kid.
Suddenly, someone shadows over me. I look up and see the new kid behind me. I turn and look at Tori and Cat. They're making googly eyes at him. It's sick. "Hi Justin!" they chorus to him. He nods and smiles at them. They giggle. Yuck.
He turns his attention to Jade. "Hi," he says. "Hey," she replies. He gazes at her. She shifts in her seat, looking uncomfortable. Weird. She never looks uncomfortable.
"Uh, why are you staring at me?" she asks. He grins. "Huh. Was I staring? Sorry. You're just really cute."
She blushes. I feel so confused. She NEVER blushes. Except when I first asked her out. And he called her CUTE? What?
He smiles wider. "Catch ya later." He walks away.
"Oh my GOD. I cannot BELIEVE this," Tori declares. Jade shrugs. "Eh. Whatevs."
I don't know what I'm feeling right now. Am I jealous? I think about it. Yes. I am jealous.
