The TV blared. Jade looked at it in disgust, while some blonde sang a jingle promoting some new Vaseline based cheese product. Delicious. She checked her phone for the millionth time in the last hour.
"Damn it", she murmured bitterly. He should of texted her by now. How could she go from his everything to nothing in a matter of seconds?
Since the breakup, Jade had been incredibly lonely. To others she seemed reclusive, and instead of attempting to comfort her, they ignore her. She guessed a upset Jade was something most people would like to avoid. She logged onto the slap, and saw pictures of tori and Andre together. As much as she hated Tori, she and Andre looked cute together, and since the day she got to Hollywood Arts, he hasn't shut up about "those cheek bones."
Sliding through Tori's pictures, one came up of her and Cat. Cat looked so... Alive next to Tori. Her bright velvet red hair, those big chocolaty eyes, the little dimple on her left cheek. All of these little things summed up cat valentine. She lifted her hand to look at another picture, but she was trapped. She continued to stare at the picture for what seemed like hours, only to be interrupted by her phone buzzing. Surprised, she quickly picked it up, it took her a moment to process the name. Her mind, heart, and soul was whispering, "Let it be Cat." unfortunately it wasn't, just Beck stating that he wanted to "talk."
Rushes of anger swelled up inside of her and as she began to text back a message that was bordering on the line of psychotic. She looked over to her open computer. Cat bright eyes greeted her. Then something weird happened, Jade smiled. Not a smile derived from the torture of another or a snarky comment, but just bliss. Looking into those eyes, calmed the beast inside her, one who had been so savage for so long. Jade then knew what she had to do; she picked up her phone and dialed Cat's number. The phone ringed. "Please pick up, please pick up", she repeated to herself. Finally after what seemed like forever, Cat's warm voice filled the empty static, "Hello?" Out of panic, Jade threw the phone against the wall. What the hell was she thinking? She was going to call up cat and say what?
"Hi Cat, you make me smile."
God damn it.
Jade pulled out her shiny new scissors, and began cutting up her sheets, her only relief for stress. After cutting up her once silk sheets into tiny black shreds, she drifted into sleep.
