Here is a story I have been working on for a while. It is just a short collection of fluffy hurt/sickness one shots for Beck and Jade.
A is for absent:
He hadn't picked her up that day because he had a dentist appointment before school. She had told him she would ask someone to pick her up. He arrived at school after first hour. He headed straight to his second hour class, Theater History. Jade was in that class with him, however, she wasn't there when he got there. The bell rang and she still wasn't there. He was worried. She was never absent unless she had a really good reason. He sat through the class, glancing at his watch every five seconds, trying to will time to move faster so he could call her. Finally the bell rang and class was dismissed. He was the first one out the door. As soon as he left, he called her. It rang once, twice, three, four, five times before going to voicemail. He left her a message.
He was worried. She always answered his calls. He desperately wanted to go to her house and make sure she was ok, but he had to stay at school for a project he had to do with Andre later in the day. He went to his next class. He didn't have Jade in that class, but he still missed her. He called again during the next passing period. Again, she didn't answer. After his next class, he had lunch. He wanted to go find her, but he had to work on the final touches for the project with Andre. He went to that room that he and Andre were supposed to meet in to work.
"Hey," he said as he entered the room.
"Hey," Andre replied. The two got to work, but Andre noticed Beck seemed very distracted.
"Dude," Andre said, "What's your deal? We need to get this project done for our film and directing class."
"Sorry," Beck said, "I'm just worried about Jade. She isn't here today and she isn't answering my calls."
"Why don't you go check on her?" Andre said.
"No, no I need to help you," Beck said.
Suddenly, his phone rang. "Hello," he said.
"Hey babe," Jade's voice said hoarsely through the phone.
"Jade," he said, "where are you? Why haven't you answered my calls? Are you ok?"
"Beck," she said weakly, "Shut up for a minute. You are making my head hurt worse. I am at my house. I'm sick. I have a fever and my throat is killing me."
"Oh, babe," he said, his heart breaking at her weak voice, "I wish I could come see you, but I have a huge project due 9th hour and I have to stay."
"It's fine," she said, "I am going to take a nap before my mom comes home and realizes I'm not at school."
"Alright," he said, angry at the fact that her mom was so awful, "I love you. I'll see you later."
"Love you," she said before hanging up.
"So, where's Jade?" Andre asked.
"She's sick," Beck said. "Why don't you just go over to her house?" Andre asked, seeing the worried look on Beck's face.
"No," Beck said, "I will just go over right after school."
"Alright," Andre said and the two got back to work.
The rest of the day dragged by for Beck. All he wanted to do was go and take care of Jade. He hated when she was absent. It made him feel like half of him was missing. Finally, he did his presentation with Andre. As soon as his class ended, he ran to his truck and drove to Jade's house. He knocked on her front door. When no one answered, he took out his key and let himself in. He found Jade in her room, curled up in a ball under a mountain of blankets. She woke up just as he walked in. He went over to her bed and sat down.
"Hey," she said.
"Hey," he said, giving her a kiss, "I hate it when you are absent."
