Disclaimer: Again I do not own Victorious no matter how much I wish I did. It is now my mission to come up with a ship name for me and Beck... Breck? Bedget? Those both suck!
"Bye guys! Robbie watch Cat she's playing in the street again!" I yelled out into the night after three of my friends.
We had all been playing cards when the breakup happened. It was possibly one of the most awkward moments I had ever witnessed and per usual my sister's insanity didn't help matters.
I turned and saw Beck clearing off the table; the night was about to get a lot worse. I walked over to him.
"Hey Beck, you don't have to do that, I've got it."
"I don't mind." He said taking some bottles to the trash. I could tell by the smile on his face he was teetering on the edge of breaking. I started picking up the poker chips and putting them in the case and thought back to earlier. I couldn't help but wonder what went through Becks mind as he stood there with his hand on the door. It must have been so hard to walk away from her but I think it was something he might have needed to do. When I turned around beck was standing at the sink staring out the window, he wasn't even moving a muscle.
"Beck? Are you ok?" I walked over to him and placed my hand on his shoulder. When I did that he jumped and looked at me. He had a frown on his face and his eyes looked tired and worried.
"Did I do the right thing Tori?" He looked lost and confused.
"I can't answer that Beck, only you can." He leaned on the counter and put his head down.
"How about I make us some hot chocolate and we sit and talk it through?" I asked gently laying a hand on his back. He looked up and smiled weakly.
"That would be great Tor. Thanks."
He turned and walked to the couch and threw himself down onto it, letting his head fall back. I could not help but think of how adorable he looked all worried and upset. I felt bad because of it but couldn't block the thought no matter how hard I tried. I started the water for the hot chocolate and pulled the ingredients from the cabinet.
"So lets start with where the hell this came from?" I asked. Not that I didn't fully know the answer.
"It's been coming for a while. Her and I both knew that. I just can't do it anymore. I feel like I'm living a lie. With every fight I slip a little further out of love with her. It's getting to the point where being around her is just frustrating and painful." He looked angry, upset, and flustered. He avoided eye contact and talked to the floor. I walked from the kitchen and into the living room carrying to mugs of chocolate. I handed one to him and sat next to him.
"So you don't love her anymore?" He stopped moving for a second. Finally he looked up at me with a smirk on his face that wasn't exactly happy.
"Not like that. I mean I love her like a friend but I'm not IN love with her anymore." He sat back and started sipping his hot chocolate. He leaned his head on my shoulder and I had to try not to gasp at the closeness.
"Beck, I promise it will all turn out ok. Whatever is meant to happen will happen. Don't worry about Jade she'll bounce back, and don't worry to much about yourself because you need to just go with the flow." I laid my head on his and clicked on the T.V. to find something to take our minds off the night.
About an hour later Beck got up and took our empty mugs to the sink. I got up and turned off the T.V. and grabbed his jacket for him.
"Thanks so much Tori, for the coco and the advice and just, well, just understanding what I am trying to work through. I feel like such an asshole." I walked to him and hugged him.
"You are not an asshole Beck, you are trying to do the right thing. Jade might not see it that way but she will eventually."
I backed away but he pulled me in again and hugged me even tighter. Finally he let me go and took his jacket.
"I'll text you later Tor, thanks again." He smiled for real for the first time since it happened and planted a soft kiss on my cheek. I felt accomplished for helping him and for managing not to giggle when his lips brushed my cheek.
"Later Beck, be careful going home. It's late."
I waved to him from the front porch as he pulled away and thoughts began racing through my mind. I hated to see him hurting that way and I was glad I could make him feel better but I felt guilty about the OTHER thoughts going through my head. He was single now, and he looked so good. He smells like motor oil, leather, and musky cologne. I whimpered a little as I remembered our hug and the kiss. It was a moment I wouldn't forget any time soon.
