Authors Note:
It's been a long day. We didn't have any work during my 4th period, so I wrote this. I am definitly gonna finish it. I really like it. It's supposed to be dedicated to how Beck & Jade can never stay apart so lets see how it goes...
C-H-A-P-T-E-R-1
POV: Third Person
"You tried to lie and say I was everything
I remember when I said I'm nothing without you
I'm nothing without you"
Beck wondered what was going through his girlfriend's mind as he chased behind her. She had stormed off about 10 minutes ago, running away as fast as she could after watching Tori innocently flirt with Beck. Maybe it wasn't so innocent though. He had agreed to come to the date she'd invited him on last night. Beck always thought she meant in the just friends sorta way, but maybe, it wasn't that way to Tori.
Watching Jade though, he instantly felt bad about giving in. Jade was his everything - she never betrayed him, and there was still so much about Tori that Beck was hiding. He had hooked up with her at a party in California not long ago, but he was obviously drunk. Tori wasn't though, and he had known that… even at the time he was wasted.
"Jade," Beck called after her. He could still hear her hard combat boots stomping against the shiny tiled floor, her necklace rattling against the studded sweatshirt she was wearing. "JADE!"
He was screaming her name with full force, and people we're starting to look at him like he needed help.
"WHAT?" She answered finally, screeching, half mocking his voice. She continued opening her locker, but the lock jammed like always. She started banging and hitting it with full force, until it slammed against the wall with a piercing bang. She pulled out a pair of scissors and ripped the black necklace from around her neck. The ring Beck had given her.
"Jade, Don't," Beck said, near tears. She had never gotten this serious, never dared to remove the chain that symbolized their love from her neck. "You really want this to end?"
Beck was about to cry, but he continued to remind himself to regroup. If he broke down, people would know that he wasn't as emotionally stable as he seemed. Beck was too kind, sometimes cared too much of what others thought. She nodded, and his voice was breaking as he asked, "Why?"
"I'M SICK…. I'M SICK OF YOUR SHIT," Jade answered, not daring to turn back at him. As long as she kept reminding herself why she hated him, she wouldn't cry, even though the lump in her throat was starting to form, and her eyes were starting to feel moist.
God, did she hate that word. She touched her lips lightly, hoping to remember their last kiss. They hadn't kissed in over a week now, because Beck had been so busy lately. No sleepovers in his RV's, no fun drives in his red pickup, no watching sappy love movies while throwing French fries at the TV. One night he let it slip he was going to a party, with Tori, and ever since Jade wondered if her boyfriend was cheating.
"Come on, Babe, We're like…" he turned away.
"You like Tori. Time for me to move on," she said, dropping the necklace in his hand. He curled his finger around it. She hadn't cut it up, a good sign, but she didn't dare take it back. Or put the scissors down, which Beck noted to himself.
"I know everything about you," Beck said nonchalantly, looking her dead in the eye. "I know that you are not as tough as you seem, and that your extensions are fake, and that you have a bright pink teddy bear in your closet you love more than anything."
Jade wasn't facing him, but at least she had stopped stalking away. She was standing, perfectly confident, back facing him.
"Jade, don't walk away from me," he said again. His voice was loud and clear. People stopped around the hallways, and watched. Tori looked over, and when she realized Jade was walking away, a slight glimmer of hope twinkled in her eye. She let out a slight 'OMG' which made Jade clench her jaw tight. Good thing she had her scissors on hand, they weren't what most people suspected in a murder.
"You can hate me for this," Beck answered. His sigh was loud and clear, his mouth forming perfectly to the letters he was saying. He ran a hair through his messy hair. Ever since he had gotten wasted, he had been avoiding Jade, and somehow always ended crying to Jade.
"But, Jadelyn West," he said, smiling, "I will always love you."
A couple aww's arose from the love struck girls in the audience.
"I love you too, Beck!" Sinjin called out, smiling a smile of happiness.
"You have… SERIOUS issues-," Beck called towards Sinjin, but was stopped mid-sentence when Jade grabbed his face for a full on make out session. "And don't you ever forget that," Beck mumbled in her ear, attempting to put the black necklace back on.
"I won't," she said, looking at the necklace. "But… you can love more than one person."
She gave him a slight peck on the cheek before turning around, dropping the necklace, once again, into his palm. Beck looked on, awing at the beauty she had. Awing at how she seemed so confident, even though he could tell her heart was breaking. He had done too much wrong. Question was: Could he ever make it right?
Authors Final Words: So there it is. I hope you guys enjoyed it. I worked really hard on it, and it's the prologue. Not technically like the first chapter, but yeah. Do you think my chapters should be longer or shorter? I'll write depending on what people want me to do.
