"What's that supposed to mean?"

Jade rolled her eyes as her roommate exclaimed her ever-so-annoying catchphrase. She was seriously regretting talking Beck into letting Cat move in with them. She couldn't stand Cat's high pitched voice, her squeals, and her peppiness. She didn't understand how someone could be so happy all the time. "Who is making her squeal?" She demanded, standing up from her computer desk and walking out of hers and Beck's bedroom.

"Beck said I won't be able to handle a mental patient!" Cat said as Jade walked into the living room of the house the three shared.

Jade looked at Beck. "Why? Why can't you just let her live in her head, and let her think what she wants?"

"Hey, she asked me on my opinion," Beck said.

"Do you think I could handle a mental patient, Jade?" Cat asked, with her big brown eyes staring into Jade's icy blue ones.

Jade looked at her for a few second and crossed her arms, tilting her head a little. "I think… I think that you can handle whatever you set your mind to."

Yes, that positive reply came from Jade. After they'd graduated high school five years ago, she'd toned down a lot. She still wore the same styled clothes, her hair was still the same, she still had her piercings, and she still had her sarcastic and witty comebacks, but she was definitely a lot nicer. Especially to Cat. There was just something about the girl that made Jade feel guilty whenever she hurt her feelings.

Cat's eyes brightened and she smiled, bouncing up and down in excitement. "Really?"

"Yeah, why not?"

"Can I go play with Catey?"

"Yeah."

As Cat skipped past her, Jade looked at Beck. "You know, she values our opinions greatly. Other than André and Tori and Robbie, we're all she has. Why can't you just go along with what she's saying? It's Cat for God's sake, she'll forget all about it in five minutes."

"It's not nothing when she's actually thinking about trying it, Jade," Beck said.

"She was going to try it? Is she insane?"

"What's that supposed to mean?" Cat's voice shrieked from down the hall.

"Play with the baby!"

"She's sleeping," Cat said, skipping back down the hall. "But, I think she needs a diaper change. She stinks. I didn't want to wake her up."

"She can go back to sleep."

"Can I change her?"

"Sure, have fun."

"Kay kay," Cat said before skipping down the hall again.

Jade walked over to the couch and she held her hand out for Beck as he followed her. When he took her hand into his, he kissed it and looked at her for a few seconds. "You think she's gonna be successful with that diaper?" He asked.

"I think she'll do good," Jade said, leaning against him.

She loved how amazing Cat was with Catey. Even though Cat had mostly air in her head, she was an amazing babysitter and godmother. When Jade was pregnant, they fought constantly about what to name her. They went with Jessica, Melissa, Allison and Hannah several times. After Jade gave birth, neither of them liked those names anymore. Jade remembered that day like it was yesterday.

"I don't like those names. I want something different. Something that isn't as common as those," Jade said.

"Can I hold her?" Cat asked for the sixth time.

"Yes, Cat, here, just take her," Jade said, handing the baby to her.

"Aw," Cat said, looking down at the baby in her arms. "She's so pretty. She looks a lot like me when I was a baby! …Except, she's lighter… And she doesn't have any hair. And her eyes aren't brown."

"That's it."

"What?" Beck asked.

"Let's name her after Cat. Look at her, she was fussy with me, but she's just… staring at Cat. She's content."

"So, were naming our baby after the girl that gets on our nerves the most–"

"What's that supposed to mean?" Cat asked.

"Nothing, he's just rambling," Jade said before turning her attention back to Beck. "What's wrong with you? Stop saying stuff like that in front of her, she has the ears of a bat," she whispered.

"Actually, my dad says I have elf ears. They're pointy, see?" She said, tucking her hair behind her ears.

Beck and Jade stared at her for a few seconds before looking at each other.

"I like Catarina. It's different. Not a lot of people have that name," Jade said.

"Okay," Beck said.

"What do you think, Cat?"

"Of what?" Cat asked.

"Her name being Catarina."

"Oh, that's my name!" She said, excitedly. "That's so funny, having the same name as me…"

"…Yeah, that's a big coincidence. So, you don't mine?"

"No, it's awesome."

"We are not calling her Cat."

"That would be really confusing…"

"We have to figure something else out."

"What about Rina?" Beck asked.

"No."

"My mom used to call me Catey when I was little," Cat said.

"That's it. We'll call her Catey. It's cute, it fits her."

"Catey it is," Beck said.

"Really?" Cat asked, receiving a nod from Jade. "Yay! I helped name her!"

As Jade came out of her trance, she noticed that Cat had come into the living room with Catey. Catey was sitting on the floor, playing with Cat's cell phone. She couldn't believe that her baby girl was already ten months old. Just two more months and she'd be a whole year. She got nervous just thinking about it. A smile came to Jade's face, watching Catey just babble and play with the phone, as if she knew what she were doing. Until it went straight to her slobbery mouth.

"No no, Catey. Don't eat Auntie's phone," Jade said.

Cat gently took her phone from Catey and she handed her a fake phone. "Here, maybe this one tastes better. It's purple, maybe it'll taste like grapes."

Jade chuckled to herself. Not because Cat was being cute, and thought Catey understood what she was saying, but because Cat was being serious.

"You wanna go somewhere tonight?" Beck asked, catching Jade's attention.

"Just us?" Jade asked.

"Yeah."

"Where?"

"Wherever you want."

"Cat, you wanna babysit tonight?"

Cat's eyes brightened and she gasped lightly, clapping. "Yay! Of course, I'd love to!"

"Great, we're all set, then," Beck said.

Jade nodded. For some reason, she was excited for tonight. She never got excited. Guess a baby and no time to yourself will do that to a dull, gloomy person, she thought.
