Helloooooooooo! :] Yet another chapter? Yup, I think! :DDD Sorry for such a late update! :( I had a birthday party all day yesterday and I had church all day today. Here's another chap. :)
Thanks to -
AJ Kenobi - Yeah, she would just storm out in a huff when I think about it, but when Jade storms out crying that would mean that she's been hurt badly! That's incorporated into my story! ;)

I was startled awake, by someone shaking me. "What?" I rubbed my eyes sleepily, as I said that groggily.
"Hey babygirl... It's Beck." He rubbed my back and smiled.
"What do you want Beck?" I tried to cross my arms, but to no avail, because of my stupid arm cast. I furrowed my brows, and glared at Beck. "Don't act like things are OK between us. You hurt me,"
"I know... But I can't stay away from you Cat... I miss talking to you,"
"Beck..." I said sincerely, and I felt bad for the guy. All he wanted was for Jade and I to both be happy. "It's only been a couple hours." I grinned, but I was still angry with him.
"You can't be mad at me forever... That's why I came here. I want to fix everything."
"Well it's unfixable. You broke me. It may not have been a major thing to you, but I hope you know that it hurt me, Beck. You know how sensitive I get." I frowned and stared.
"Yes, I know. I'm so sorry. So so so sorry. Cat, I'm probably one of the most sorriest people on this planet. These past few hours without you have been agony,"
"Beck," I stroked my free hand through his hair. "You've spent longer than this without me before, what happened?"
"I-I just don't know. I never realized that I loved you Cat. Not Jade, not Tori. You."
I blushed, "You really mean it?" I was almost in his trap.
"I really mean it." He kissed me on my forehead, and everything was happy again.
Until, Jade walked in again. How come when she comes, Beck's always here? "Beck..." Jade leaned against the door hinges.
"Jade..." Beck said with sorry eyes. "I'm so sorry."
"No, I get it..." Her voice cracked, as she disappeared within seconds.
Beck turned to me, and gulped. "Cat," He said and carressed my head.
"Beck, go talk to her." I waved to the door. "She's hurt. I've never seen Jade cry before. Do you know how hurt she must be if she's crying?"
Beck ran his hands through his hair, "God, I really messed up this time.."
"Go talk to her, you need to talk to her."
He bit his lip, "I can't."
"Fine, bring Jade in here. I'll talk to her. Get out of here, for now." I winked, then smiled at Beck. He smiled back, then left the room.
Jade entered, with tears streaming down her face. "Cat, how could you? He's my boyfriend, and you're my best friend... I love Beck."
It hurt to hear those words come out of her mouth. "Jade, I'm so sorry. And you must feel so hurt right now, because I've never seen the Jade West cry... Everything is going to get better Jade... Please don't be mad at me..." I said, filled with hope and compassion. I put my hands to my mouth, as my eyes got glossy.
"I could never be mad at you Cat. But.. I'm not going to forget this..." Jade whispered. "You should be with Beck,"
"But-" I was shocked. Jade is being... Nice?
"I see the way you two look at each other,"
"Jade-"
"No, stop Cat. Be with Beck. I'll be OK." She began to cry again.
"No, Jade stop. You're crying! I must have hurt you so much..." I tried to hug her, but the hospital bed restricted me from getting up.
"You did hurt me Cat, but... Something inside me is telling me that I should do this. I should be;" She gulped, and choked on saying this word, "Nice."
"I can't do this. I can't just steal your boyfriend!"
"Nobody's stopping you... I'll be fine Cat,"
"No. Stop it Jade, I'm not going to hurt you even more," I said, convincingly.
"Cat," She sat at the foot of my bed, and brought her curls to the front of her face. She wiped a tear falling from her cheek, and said, "what's the point in being in a relationship with a guy that doesn't love me anymore?"
I bit my lip. She was right, she even heard Beck say that he didn't love her. But I felt so bad, I was stealing my best friend's boyfriend.
"See?" Jade stated. "Please Cat, for me. This is probably the only way I'll get over Beck."
"OK..." I said, but I still felt guilty about everything.
"Thanks... I wish you two the best," She got up and hugged my fragile body, and walked away.
"Wait, Jade!" I screamed after her. She turned around, holding on the side of the door.
"What?"
"We're still friends, right?" I asked her, hope in my eyes, and all I saw in her was coldness and sadness.
"We'll see," And with that, she walked out of my room. I put my hands to my face, and started crying in my casts. It's hard to cry with a restricting neck brace in the way of bending your neck.
"Hey, babygirl, why are you crying?" Beck rushed to my side, pulling my hands off my face.
"Jade said we could be together," I sniffled.
"What? That's great! Why are you crying?" He smiled, but when he realized I was sad about it, his smile turned into a frown.
"Because. I can't just steal my best friend's boyfriend..." I frowned. "But she told me that she wanted me to do this, but I just can't help it if I feel so guilty about everything!"
"Kitten, shhh," He held me in his arms. "Everything will be alright." He kissed my head, "Get some rest. You need it,"
"No, I don't want to go to sleep. I'm not tired," I complained. I played with my hair, then sighed. "Fine,"
I layed in my sleeping position and chimed, "Beck?"
"Yeah?" He was about to leave the room.
"Don't leave me," I got up, anxious as to where Beck was going.
"Whatever you want," He kissed my cheek, then went to go sit on the couch.
I layed on the bed, my eyes wide open. "Beck?"
"Yeah?" He looked up from his phone.
"Now you know what I was talking about in improv today, right?"
He smiled and chuckled. "Yeah.. Yeah I do,"
"Hey, guess what!" I giggled.
"What?"
"I named my arm cast!" I showed him the purple arm cast.
"What'd you name him?" He smiled, showing interest in my broken arm.
"Squirt! Like in Finding Nemo! I love that turtle! He's so cute!"
"He's not the only thing that's cute," Beck looked up, then smiled.
I giggled at his cheesy comment, then said, "What are you doing?" I tried to lean as far as I could without falling to look at Beck's phone.
"Updating my status on TheSlap,"
"Can you update mine?" I asked sweetly, then smiled.
"Sure Kitten," He chuckled.
What's New On TheSlap?
Beck Oliver: With Cat at the hospital, spending the night with her :) Mood: Happy
Cat Valentine: I hate neck braces! But I love my arm cast, Squirt. Mood: Guilty :|
Jade West: Crying still... Congrats to Beck and Cat! P.S. Don't feel guilty Cat. I told you already. Mood: Depressed
Tori Vega: Whoa! Beck and Cat? :o Mood: Shocked
Andre Harris: Congrats to the new couple of Hollywood Arts! :) To Lil' Red and Beck! Mood: Happy
Robbie Shapiro: Cat's got a boyfriend... Mood: Disappointed
"Show me everyone's updates!" I got overexcited. Once I saw Jade's update, I frowned. "Jade hates me."
"Wh-Where did you get that from?"
"She's depressed. And she's stiill crying..." I started to cry. "Beck, I'm so screwed..."
"No, don't cry," He ran to my side once again and hugged my head to his chest.
"I don't like this feeling Beck, I don't like it one bit." I frowned.
"It'll go away,"
"Promise?"
"I promise." He kissed my head. "I love you,"
I was shocked from his words, but then returned them. "I love you too,"
Yeah, this chapter wasn't the best either! :/ Better chapters to come. I remember writing this.. I had major writer's block. -.-
