Jade sits on her chair in her room, ready to make a "What I Hate" Video. It's central to pineapples. Why she hates them, the smell, texture, taste, the way Gary the snail slithers inside of one. And even though pineapples featured in another of her videos, Jade's hatred for pineapples deserved at least one more! Here's how it all came about…
"Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?" The SpongeBob theme tune blares in the West's living room, and fifteen year old Jade rolls her icy eyes. "If I lived in a pineapple, I'd most likely kill myself." Jade says, sighing. "We've seen this one anyway; do we really have to watch it again?" Tomas, Jade's little brother, nods fervently. She groans. "Ugh, and that pet snail, he puts me off eating pineapple."
Later
"I don't believe that we have pineapple upside down cake for dessert." Jade says, disgusted, pushing her plate forward. "I'm not eating that, mom."
"Okay, honey, I'll get you something else." Jade shakes her head, suddenly, her appetite had disappeared.
"That's okay, mom." Jade runs to her room. That's where Jade's irrational fear of pineapples started out, but she's got much more history with scary Mr Pineapple.
Beck and Jade went to the Cow Wow together, and they had a relatively good time. Until there was a contest, to see who could eat the most pineapple, in true Hawaiian spirit. Jade was egged on, because she won last year's pie eating contest but she shakes her head. "I don't think so."
"Come on, babe, what's wrong?" She frowns.
"I don't like pineapple."
"Everyone likes it."
"I don't." Beck shrugs. She rolls her eyes. He starts to laugh, and tries to get the words out.
"This….isn't….cause of…SpongeBob?!" She scowls and stomps her foot. He can't breathe through laughing. So she takes his keys and drives home, and makes a "What I Hate" video. Needless to say, pineapple made an appearance.
"I hate pineapples, ABBA, white cats, posters, mirrors, lamps, teddies, lanyards, butterflies, bees, grasshoppers, oh, and I also happen to hate my boyfriend, Beck, and his stupid old pickup truck." He walks over to her house in the morning, ready to take her to school in his "stupid old pickup truck" but she sulks the whole way there.
"Come on, you've got to admit. It's kinda funny."
"It's not funny!" Jade protests. She storms off to her next class. Beck sighs and goes to his own class. Jade is fuming at lunch, when Tori, Tori of all people, has a pot of pineapple rings. She groans and mutters something about having to do homework. The pungent smell stays with her, and she's almost sick as Tori plops herself down on the chair next to her. "Vega," she hisses. "Go bother Beck or something, I can't be bothered to deal with you." Tori looks put out as she scoffs and walks away. Jade raises an eyebrow.
To top off her less than perfect day, when she arrived home, hung up her coat and finally got off her lace up boots, a familiar tune rang through the house. "Nope," Jade says, angrier than she thought she'd be. "Turn that off!" Jade grabs the remote and watches Drake And Josh. Her little brother watches her, stunned. He accepts it, which was a good choice, as his head may have been rolling on the floor otherwise.
And when her birthday rolls round, and Beck's present to her is a pineapple (scented and all) jewellery box, she's peeved. Lucky for him, it was just a joke present. She kisses him and rolls her eyes. Just as she relaxes and closes her eyes, a song plays in the background:
"Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?"
A/N:
I did the first one just to give an example. This isn't my best work, but as it's 11 and I've got school in the morning, it'll have to do. I underestimated how hard it is to try and reach expectations. I restarted like five times. I wanted to do a diary entry, and I'm sure Jade could, but I'm sceptical as to if I could go on and on about pineapples. So, here you are. I really hope you like it. This is just me wrapping my head around it.
