Cat's POV
Everyone thought it was strange that Jade skipped Sikowitz class. Joy sat in her seat, which was even weirder. At lunch I was sitting at the usual table, stroking my hair. Tori, Andre, Robbie, and Rex were there, too.
We could see Beck and Joy getting food.
"Man, it's like that girl is taking over Jade's life," Rex said.
I gasped, "But Jade is my Best friend!" I practically yelled.
"Shhhh!" The whole group shushed me, then looked over at Beck and Joy, who had glanced at me, in confusion. They were still in line.
"Where is Jade anyway?" Robbie asked.
"We saw her this morning," Tori said, taking a bite of a burrito.
"And she-" I began, but they all shushed me again, because, Beck and Joy came over, and sat down.
"Hey have you guys seen Jade?" Beck asked.
"Well, we saw her this morning, and then she just disappeared." I said.
"Weird," Beck said, he looked slightly concerned, but then went back to eating his food.
"I'm Cat," I smiled, and extended my hand across the table to Joy, who gave me a half smile, and shook it.
"So I've heard," She said.
"WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?" I asked.
"Calm down, Little Red," Andre said. So I did.
I heard someone cough behind me, and then Jade plopped down next to me.
"Jade!" I said, and hugged her.
"Get off of me," She said, and coughed again.
"Jade are you okay?" Beck asked, giving her a look of concern
"Yeah, I just have a cold or something, I have been in the nurses office all morning."
"Get better," Joy said.
"I will," Jade said. I'm surprised she didn't attack her.
