Last class of the day and it was with Sikowitz. It was getting sooner to her date with Alan. She realized she didn't even ask Alan what they were going to do today for their date. She came up with possible places they could go to.

"Jade!" Sikowitz yelled, breaking Jade away from her thoughts.

"What?" she yelled back.

"What is dramatic irony?" Sikowitz asked her.

Jade rolled her yes. "It's when the audience knows something but the characters in the play don't."

"Good, and it's always best to-"

The bell interrupted Sikowitz. Everyone got up to leave. Jade headed straight to her locker to put away her books.

"Hey Jade!" Cat called out.

"What?" Jade asked, still walking to her locker.

"Are you excited for your date with Alan?" Cat asked, cheerily.

"I guess," Jade answered, trying to sound uninterested. She opened her locker and put her books in.

"Where's he taking you?"

"I don't know. I forgot to ask."

"What time is he picking you up?"

"He said he'll be here at three."

"Is he here then?"

Jade shrugged. "I guess? He said I would know when he was here."

"Is your girlfriend here?" Tori asked Beck. Beck, Tori, and Andre walked to the asphalt cafe parking lot.

"She's not my girlfriend. And yes, she's here. But please don't be so quick to disapprove," Beck pleaded. He imagined their reactions when they see Haley, and he knew it wasn't going to be pretty.

When they were in the parking lot, Beck spotted her in her Mercedes Benz. "There she is," he said, pointing at her in the car.

"Damn, a Benz?!" Andre exclaimed, stunned.

"What is it with him and rich girls with nice cars?" Tori asked Andre.

"I heard that!" Beck said, walking ahead of them.

He reached the car and opened the car door for her. She stepped out of the vehicle, wearing high heels, a skirt, a loose tank top, and sunglasses. She gave him a hug and kiss on the cheek. He stood next to her and wrap his arm around her waist. Andre and Tori stood in front of them, about three feet away.

"Tori. Andre. This is Haley," Beck said, gesturing at Haley standing next to him.

Tori squinted her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. "You look really familiar," she said.

"Yeah. Did you go here before?" Andre asked.

Haley took her sunglasses off and Tori immediately covered her mouth with her hands, as she gasped. Similar to the way Cat would do it. "You'rethe Haley from karokie-dokie!" Tori exclaimed.

Andre looked at Haley longer. "True chiz. It is you!" Andre said.

Beck let his head drop as he looked at the ground. He looked back up at Tori and Andre. "We met at an event for that charity I help out at last month. Her dad is one of the sponsors and we hung out, since we were the only ones our age."

"Beck, can we talk over there for a minute?" Tori said, pointing at a pole that was ten feet away.

"Sure."

Tori smiled at Haley, before walking with Beck. When they were at the pole, Tori slapped Beck on the shoulder.

"Oww! What was that for?" Beck asked, rubbing his shoulder.

"Why are you dating Haley Ferguson?!" Tori demanded. She wasn't there when Haley and her friend were rude to Jade and Cat, but she knew they were messing with her friends and she didn't like it when people messed with her friends.

"Look, she's not all that bad once you get to know her."

Tori slapped Beck's shoulder again. "Dude! Stop that!" He yelled, rubbing his shoulder again.

Tori crossed her arms. "Have you thought about how Jade's going to react when she finds out you're dating Haley Ferguson?"

Beck shrugged. "It doesn't matter anymore. Jade and I broke up. Plus, she's dating someone else too. As far as I'm concerned, she doesn't care about my dating life, and I shouldn't care about hers either." Beck walked away from Tori and headed to Haley and Andre. Tori followed him. Beck gave Haley a kiss on the cheek.

"Why's there a limo here?" Andre asked, as the limousine pulled up in the parking lot.

"There's a limo outside!" Robbie exclaimed as he ran to Jade and Cat.

"sine?" Cat asked, excited.

"Yeah."

"Why's there a limo here?" Jade asked, confused. She shut her locker.

"I don't know. Let's go find out," Robbie said.

They all walked out, wanting to figure out who was there. When Jade passed the grub truck a strange guy handed her a bouquet of flowers. "Here you go madame," the guy said. He wore a suit and looked like a driver.

"Oooo Flowers!" Cat screeched.

"I don't like flowers. You want 'em?" she asked Cat.

"No! You should keep them. They're pretty!"

"This way madame," the strange guy in the suit said, gesturing toward the limo.

"Oh my God! The limousine is for you!" Cat shrieked.

Jade, Robbie, and Cat followed the man to the limousine. He opened the rear door and Alan stepped out. He fixed his clothes and flashed a big smile at Jade. Jade stopped, totally stunned by all of this. Alan wore straight jeans, which fit nicely. He wore a blue plaid shirt. He looked so attractive to Jade for some reason. She just couldn't figure out why. Not to mention he's picking her up in a limousine in front of everyone she knew and she got flowers. She wasn't that impressed by the flowers, but she still considered it a nice gesture.

She walked closer to him so that she stood at arms length from him. Cat and Robbie stood next to her. "Look at you trying to be all suave and charming," Jade said sarcastically.

Alan chuckled and shook his head at he looked down. He looked back up at her and smirked at her. He shrugged and said, "I try." Jade rolled her eyes, but smiled back at him. "You look beautiful," he told her.

Jade felt her cheeks flush. It was times like these that she wished she didn't have pasty skin.

"Whoa. Is that limo for Jade?" Andre asked.

"Who's picking up Jade in a limo?" Beck asked.

"Wait, that guy looks really familiar!" Tori exclaimed. Tori squinted her eyes again. After a few seconds of looking, she realized who it was. "Oh. My. God!"

Beck and Haley turned around to get a better look at who Jade was with at the limo. Haley's jaw dropped when she realized who it was. She strutted in her heels to Jade and the guy standing at the limo. Beck, Tori, and Andre followed.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" Haley demanded from Alan.

Alan answered her question with a question. "What are you doing here?" Alan asked Haley.

"Answer the question!" she yelled, like a little brat.

It took a second for both Jade, Cat, and Robbie to realize that the girl who was yelling at Alan, was Haley Ferguson from karaoke-dokie. Cat gasped loudly. "Oh my gosh! You're Haley Ferguson!" Cat shrieked, making it sound like Haley was Freddy Krueger. Beck, Tori, and Andre stood around Alan and Haley.

Alan rolled his eyes. "I'm picking up my date, Jade."

Tori gasped also, when she recognized that the guy was Alan. The same Alan that was with Chad at Nozu. "Oh. My. God! Alan?! As in the one from Nozu? As in the one who stalked us at our play?" Tori asked Jade. Jade rolled her eyes but nodded.

Haley looked at Jade and scoffed. Jade flashed a fake smile at her. Haley rolled her eyes. "Why are you dating," Haley stopped to look at Jade, "her?!"

Jade opened her mouth to insult Haley, but Alan said something first. "First off, it's none of your business on who I do or don't date. Second, she's one of the most beautiful girls I have ever met," Alan paused to look at Jade, "and she's blew me away with her performances, that I was lucky enough to witness." He smiled his winning smile at her. Jade felt her cheeks flush pink again.

Why does he have this affect on me?

"Awww," Tori, Cat, and Robbie screeched in harmony.

Beck felt weird standing there and listening to another guy - let alone another person - compliment Jade and seeing Jade blush. He remembered Jade would only blush when they were alone.

"How do you guys even know each other?" Andre asked Haley and Alan.

Alan shook his head and looked to the ground. Haley crossed her arms over her chest. "His mom married my dad," Haley answered.

"So you guys are-" Tori said.

"Yep. He's my step-brother," Haley answered. "My annoying step-brother!"

"And she's my irritating bratty step-sister," Alan confessed.

Everyone was surprised to discover that Alan and Haley were step-siblings. That was so out of nowhere. So unexpected.

Haley rolled her eyes and scoffed. "Whatever. Don't you know you're only supposed to take out the trash not date it?" She faced Alan.

Jade took a step forward, getting ready to land a punch on Haley's face and instinctively Beck grabbed her waist and held her down. "What the hell are you doing?" Jade asked Beck.

Beck let go of her and realized he was out of place to do that. "I thought you were gonna hit her," he explained.

"So?! And yeah, I was," she said, trying to fix her clothes. "What the hell are you even doing here daddy's girl?" Jade asked Haley.

"Yeah, what are you doing here Haley?" Alan asked, wondering the same thing.

Haley glared at Jade and then smirked. "I'm here to see my boyfriend." She turned around to look at Beck. "Beck."

Jade's jaw literally dropped to the floor. She felt her heart drop to her stomach. She wasn't sure if she was mad or sad. She couldn't describe how she felt. She was upset that Beck, had to choose to date a girl that he knew Jade hated. But she felt a little sad inside, knowing that Beck had moved on. Not wanting to stand there any longer, she dropped the flowers, turned around and walked away.

"See what you did! Stay away from me! I don't get into your personal business, so don't get into mine!" Alan yelled at Haley. He ran after Jade, hoping to get her before she got far.

Beck saw the pain, hurt, anger, and betrayal all over Jade's face. Even if she couldn't determine the emotions she felt, Beck knew. He, too, wanted to run after Jade, but Alan had already started to run. Beck didn't want to make things more complicated by talking to her. He wasn't even sure how he felt about all of this. He just discovered that the girl he's dating, is the step-sister of the guy Jade's dating. "Let's just go," he told Haley. They walked back to the car, not bothering to say a work to Tori, Andre, and Cat. He expected Tori and Andre to point out the wrongs in this whole situation, and Beck really didn't want to deal with it.

"Jade," Alan called out after her. She still walked, swiftly. She exited the parking lot. "Jade!" he called out again. She still didn't respond or look back. They were three blocks away from Hollywood Arts. He underestimated how fast she could walk. Alan ran faster and caught up to her. He ran and stopped right in front of her, forcing her to stop. "I'm sorry. I didn't know Haley was going to be there."

Jade crossed her arms, and look to the side.

"I'm sorry she said those things. She's a brat. I didn't even know you knew her. How do you know her?"

Alan waited for an answer but Jade didn't respond. He waited a minute and she caved in. "Her dad owns that place that does karaoke-dokie. Cat and I went there to sing and compete, but found out that the competition was fixed. We found out Haley and her little friend won because her daddy owned the place. They sounded like they were cats crying. And they were talking shit about Hollywood Arts. And she was trying to get with my boyfrie-" Jade stopped to correct herself. "My ex-boyfriend, Beck. He was my boyfriend at the time, but we broke up recently."

"Ohh, the dude with the hair," Alan said, remembering him at the parking lot.

"Yep."

"Well, look. I really like you and I really wanna take you out. Please don't let Haley and her bratty-attitude ruin our date for today."

"I don't think we should go out-"

"Please Jade?" he interrupted her. "What's a guy gotta do to go on a date with you?" Jade shrugged. "Do you want me to get down on my knees and beg?" Jade snickered, trying to hide it. Alan saw that she wanted that, so he got down on both of his knees. "Will you, Jade West, do me, Alan Michael, the honor of accompanying me on date today?" Jade looked down at him. She loved being begged. "Please?" he pleaded. She looked into his eyes, and the sun rays made his eye glisten for a moment. He had that look in his eyes, that she just couldn't resist. Jade rolled her eyes and smiled. "fine!" she finally said, trying to hide her satisfaction.

"Yes!" Alan exclaimed, like a little boy going to the candy store. He got off his knees. "Chives is right here, too."

"Chives?" Jade asked, not knowing who Chives was.

Alan pointed behind her. She turned around and saw the limousine pulling up on the curb next to them. "Chives is my driver."

"Oh, so you just knew that I was going to say yes?" Jade asked, insulted. So pompous, she thought to hereself.

"No. I didn't. I was just really hoping you would say yes," he told her, and smiled his winning smile. He had such charm, that she actually liked and enjoyed.

Chives got out of the car, and opened the back door for Jade and Alan. Alan gestured for her to go in first. Jade liked his chivalry. It wasn't like any other guy he met. Plus, no guy has ever picked her up in a limo before. He was beginning to grow on her.

"You didn't have to insult Jade like that," Beck told Haley in the car. He really thought Haley was out of line to do that.

"What do you care? She's your ex-girlfriend right?"

"Yeah, but she's still my friend. And I still care about her. If you can't be nice to Jade, then tell me now. Cause I don't think we can date if you can't be nice to my friends," Beck said bluntly. He didn't like it when Haley was rude like that.

Haley sighed and thought about it. "Fine..." she finally agreed. She wanted to continue dating Beck.

"How messed up is that?" Tori asked Andre, Cat, and Robbie. They all decided to go to Nozu to eat some sushi.

"Right? Beck and Jade are dating people who are step-siblings," Andre said, expressing his opinion.

"It seems so incestuous to me," Tori confessed. "Plus, never in a million years would I have ever thought Jade would go out on a date with Alan!" Tori said, incredulously. She remembered her and Jade running away from Alan and Chad after the play.

"I like him," Cat screeched.

"Why?" Robbie asked.

Cat twirled the bottom of her hair. "Because he took Jade out to that expensive gluten free restaurant, La Bella Mia. No guy our age would take someone out to a place like that on a first date."

"La Bella Mia?!" Robbie, Tori, and Andre said in unison.

"Yup," Cat answered.

"It costs like nearly $500 for two people, with a full course meal," Tori said.

"How the hell does Alan have that kind of money?" Robbie asked.

"Well, he did show up today in a limo and he's Haley's step-brother," Andre reasoned.

"And he makes Jade blush. I haven't seen her blush since Beck," Cat said. "Jade always looks so much prettier when she blushes and smiles."

"Stop staring at me!" Jade told Alan. He'd been staring at her since they got into the limo. She tried to avoid it, but he's been staring and smiling at her for the past 20 minutes.

"I don't know, Jade. I don't think I can. I'm trying to take my eyes off of you, but I just can't," Alan said, smiling and jokingly.

Jade rolled her eyes and tried to hide her smile. Why is he so damn charming? She asked herself in her head. "So where are we going anyway?" she asked him, trying to change the subject.

"If I told you, then it wouldn't be a surprise," Alan said, with his charm.

Jade rolled her eyes, but decided to just wait for the surprise.

After about an hour of driving, the limo came to a stop. Chives opened the door for them. Alan got out first. When he stood on his feet, he held out his hand. Jade grabbed it and stepped out of the limo. As she stood up, she looked around and realized she was in Disneyland. "What are we doing here?" she asked him.

"This is where we'll have our date," Alan answered.

"At Disneyland? Why?"

Alan cocked his head to the side. "You don't like it?" he asked.

Jade stood and stared at everyone and everything around her. "What's there to like? The heat? The screaming and annoying children? The long lines? The expensive food? The endless walking?"

Alan chuckled to himself. "Well, I can't do anything about the heat or the annoying children, but I can get us to the front of the line for every ride; the food and everything else is on me, so don't worry about spending a cent; and as for walking, that's what this golf cart is for," Alan said gesturing behind her back.

Jade turned around and saw a guy pulling up with a golf cart. "Why would you do all of this?"

"Because, everyone's dreams comes true here at Disneyland. C'mon, let's go. I'll even let you drive the golf cart."

Jade was overly excited that she got to drive a golf cart. She liked the idea of riding in a golf cart while everyone else had to walk. She would even yell at people who were in her way. Alan didn't mind, he actually found it funny. They rode almost every ride. Just as Alan had promised, they didn't have to wait in line. He had Jade drive all the way to the front of the line. They parked the cart, and cut in front of everyone. It was just unbelievable. She felt like she was royalty. They ate a lot of junk food and candy, in between rides. Jade had a smile on her face the entire time, surprisingly. She was even shocked after she realized that she'd been smiling and laughing this whole time. Before they knew it, the sun was setting and it was seven forty-five.

He directed her to the Rose Court Garden. When they arrived, Jade stepped out of the cart, completely surprised by her surrounding. The Rose Court Garden contained a gazebo and more than 800 rose bushes. The gazebo was beautifully decorated with vines and christmas lights. Within the gazebo, there was a table, with two chairs. A white table cloth draped over the table and the chairs were covered with cotton chair seat covers with red bows in the back. On the table there were two sliver platters with a candle in between.

Alan gestured at the gazebo for her to lead the way. She walked to the gazebo, and smelt the divine smell of the roses as she stepped closer. Alan pulled her chair out for her and she took her seat. He took her seat and took off the the silver covers that were covering the platters. The silver platter contained a steak and mash potatoes. She cut off a pieve and took her first bite.

"Mmmm," she moaned. "This steak is so juicy and chewable. Medium Well. Just like I love it," she told him.

"I'm glad you like it," Alan said, taking a bite of his own. "I take it you had a great time today?"

"What makes you say that?" she asked.

"Cause you were smiling the whole day, and you didn't deny it when I said you did," Alan explained, smiling at her. He looked at her the same way he'd been looking at her since yesterday at Jet Brew. His eyes were so captivating.

"Whatever," she said, taking another bite. "So how'd you manage to get us to the front of the line?"

"In a nut shell, my dad has invested loads of money in Disney," Alan said. "More than the average."

Jade's jaw dropped and she gaped at him, completely shocked. "You're filthy rich huh?"

Alan chuckled. "I wouldn't say that," he said, modestly.

"So, you and Haley?"

"Yeah. I don't like to talk about it. Like I said, she's a brat, and I stray away from her dad," he told her. "I'm sorry about what her and her dad did to you and your friend."

Jade shrugged and took a bite of her mash potatoes. "Old news. Everyone there knew Cat and I were way better than Haley and her friend. Plus, we got our pay back."

"I'm sure you did," Alan said, taking a sip of his sparkling water. "So you and Beck?" he asked, not sure if it was ok to ask.

Jade thought about how to answer or how to explain. "Beck and I dated for about two years, but it didn't work out." Jade looked down and picked at her mash potatoes on her plate with her fork. "I wasn't a good girlfriend..." she said, softly.

Alan saw that she was still hurt over their break up. "Well, it's his lost," Alan said. She looked up and saw him smiling at her. She looked back down and smiled.

They finished dinner and got to know more about each other. She learned about his family and how involved his mom and his step-dad was in the community and organizations around here. He learned about Jade's dreams, talents, and aspirations.

Out of the blue, in the middle of their conversation, Alan stood up, walked to Jade's side, and held out his hand.

She furrowed her eyebrows, confused. "Are we going now?"

"No," Nathan said, and chuckled. "Dance with me?"

She didn't grab his hand. Instead, she just stared at it.

"What's wrong? You don't dance?" he asked.

"Not with you," she said, giving him her fake smile.

"C'mon Jade. I'm not gonna sit down until you dance with me."

She looked at him with her eye brows raised. "Really?" Alan nodded. Five minutes past, and he still stood next to her with his hand out. Ten minutes and he still stood, strong. Fifteen minutes and he smiled at her, his winning smile.

Jade finally gave in, and was about to place her hand in his, but stopped. "There's no music."

Alan held up one finger, telling her to wait. He walked to the end of the gazebo and pulled out a stereo. He turned it on and pressed play. Where We Gonna Go From Here by Mat Kearney played. He walked back to her and held out his hand. She place her hand in his. He pulled her up, spun her, and pulled her into his arms. Jade was completely taken by surprise. She didn't realize her mouth was open, in shock. They swayed from side to side. Then he picked up the speed by taking the whole empty area that they had around the table. He led the dance, dancing around the table, similar to a waltz technique. Quick quick, slow.

"Where'd you learn to dance?" Jade asked.

"I'll tell you, if you promise not to laugh," he said.

"Ok," she agreed.

"Since my mom was apart of those debutant societies, she made me join those etiquette school, where they forced us to learn how to act and how to dance."

Jade tried to stifle her laugh, but let out a chuckle.

"You said you weren't gonna laugh."

"I'm sorry," she said, laughing. "But that's pretty hilarious."

He spun her, surprising her, dipped her and pulled her back up, holding her even tighter and closer than he had earlier. Their faces were inches from each other. Their eyes locked. She found herself lost in his blue icy eyes. He looked at her in this way, that just made her melt. He leaned in to kiss her and she found her lips progressing towards his. Their lips touched and it entailed a different kind of sensation. It was smooth and icy, matching his blue eyes. A second after their lips touched, they both heard popping noise. They stopped, and looked to see what it was. It was the Disney Fireworks show. They both smiled, enjoying this moment. He walked around, to stand behind her. He wrapped his arms around her, tightly. "I must be the luckiest guy in the world right now," Alan whispered into her ear.

Will Haley and Jade get into a physical fight sooner or later?
Will Beck and Alan get into a physical fight also?
Are Beck and Jade truly over each other?
