Summary: When Jade has nowhere else to go, she finds she has to turn to Beck. But in doing this, what will Beck find out about her and how will he deal with it? How far will someone go to take care of the one they love?

Author's Note: So, I've never written in the fandom before and I don't know how this is going to turn out but I hope you enjoy it.

Chapter 1

It had been raining for the last twenty-seven minutes. Jade had been walking in that storm for the last twenty-five minutes, leaving her entirely soaked from head to toe. Even the make-up on her face was somewhat faded and running down in long streaks.

Jade pulled her jacket tighter, while trying to keep herself warm among other things. She continuously rubbed her arms up and down, which most would see as someone trying to stay warm, when in reality, it was something entirely different. She needed to keep her clothes from sticking to her body and not because of the rain.

As she got closer to Beck's house, she let out a sigh of relief. She was almost there and just a little further away from him. Every step took her further and that's all that mattered. She knocked on Beck's trailer door. Normally, she would just break in and enter but she didn't have the energy to do so. The last hour had been nothing short of taxing on the teenager. When Beck opened the door, he was more than just surprised to see Jade standing next to his trailer in the rain.

"Jade?"

"I didn't know where else to go," she whispered.

Beck quickly ushered his girlfriend inside his trailer and out of the rain. She set her bag down as soon as she set foot in the door and crumpled to the floor. In short, Jade was exhausted and it was only in front of Beck that she would ever show this.

He grabbed the blanket on his bed and draped it over Jade. He had no idea how long she had been in the rain or even what caused her to walk, considering she had a car and loved driving it at night. Everything about this situation was wrong and Beck knew it but he couldn't figure out how it had gotten this way.

"Jade, what happened?"
