A/N: Hey! I'm extremely sorry it took me this long to update. I was on a school expedition, and thus I was out of the country for a week. I just got back today. Woo Hoo! It's good to be home

And tnx to all those reviewers who thought my ending for chapter 3 was sweet. You guys made my day! Although my brother got a bit offended, but oh well... I HAVE 15 REVIEWS! YAY! Also, once again: I know some of you victorious fans like Tori. I on the other hand, don't. No offense to anyone, it's just my opinion.

Disclaimer: Sadly, I don't own Victorious, and if I did, Cat would have sang: Tell Me That You Love Me, and Jade would have sang: Freak the Freak Out. I think those songs are better suited to them...


Beck's POV

After school, Jade came back to my place. She wasn't sure how long it would take for her father to cool down, and I sure as he'll didn't want her anywhere near that god damn demon.

"Could you drive any slower? I have to pee you know," she exclaims, banging her hand on the dashboard of my car. We were in a traffic jam, and the lights were red.

"Yes ma'am." I say, saluting her. I don't need her to be any more pissed than she is, so I don't comment on the fact that it's not my fault the light is red. She just glares.

"You know, you don't need to worry about Tori right?" I add, glancing at her as the lights finally turn green.

"I don't give a shit about that bitch," she says coldly.

I sigh, I know Jade's just being herself. Somehow the traffic has all cleared and we reach the RV in a few minutes.

"Thank god," says Jade, as she runs in for the toilet. Her face looks worried, but it's just for a second and then it's back to normal. I tell myself it was a trick of light, but I feel a bit of unease...


Jade's POV

I lied to Beck, I didn't really need to pee. I rush into the small toilet, swearing when I remember that there's no lock. It's never been a problem before, since most of the time it's just me and Beck, but if Beck sees this, he'll freak, and I just can't deal with that right now. I lean against the door so it won't open and I take off my jacket. I turn, to look at my back in the mirror.

"Shit," I mutter impulsively.

"Jade, honey, are you okay?" I hear Beck's voice.

"Call me honey, one more time and I'll hit you with a baseball bat," I answer smoothly. I take a deep breath and slowly start to peel of my shirt. I let out a short gasp of pain as it goes over the middle of my back. It's bleeding. It must have been during dance class today, when Alicia accidentally whacked me in the back, her nails unintentionally scratching me. It was already a sore spot, after what my father had put it through, now it was bleeding. And it had stained my shirt. "Dammit," I mutter again.

"I never knew women took that long to pee," says Beck again.

"Shut up," I reply. I pull the toilet paper to clean the wound, wincing as the rough material scrapes my skin. I know I have to plaster it, if not I could get an infection. But Beck won't let me out of his sight until he's sure my dad's cooled down. Sigh, I'd find a way. I pull over my shirt, gently, so it didn't aggravate my wound and put my cardigan on. Then I walk out, facing Beck.

"I didn't hear you flush the toilet," he comments, I roll my eyes.

"I did," I say. Confidence is the key to lying.

"Really," he says sarcastically.

"Really." I say firmly.

"Should I go check?"he asks raising his eyebrow.

"Go ahead!" I say my hands gesturing to the bathroom. Yeah, I didn't flush, but I didn't even pee, so it didn't matter. Beck gives me a look and then peers in the toilet. I sigh, waiting for him to come out so I can say I told you so. Instead, he says, "Jade, what's this?" I turn, freeze and curse myself mentally. He's pointing to the toilet paper in the trash can, stained in red.

"it's paint." I say, before realizing that it was probably the lamest excuse possible.

He knows this of course, "You didn't have art today," and before I can deny that he goes, "I memorized your schedule." I curse mentally, he did memorize my schedule, I know that for a fact because it was me that forced him to.

I rack my brains, "They were re-painting the drama hall,"

"In red?"

"In red Beck," I say, crossing my arms.

"Jade, that's a bad excuse, and we both know it,"

I raise my arms into he air, "Fine!" I exclaim, "I got my period, okay?"

"No you didn't, you got it last week, and then you nearly pushed Tori off the stairs. Remember?"

Damn. I was hoping he'd forgotten. I was out of excuses, there are only so many things that can leave a red stain.

"Jade," he says my name and his voice is pained because he's probably figured out what that red was.

"Don't be mad," I say eventually. He walks over and pulls me to his chest. His arm is hurting me, but I still don't want him to let go.

"How could I be mad at you for this?" he whispers.

I take a deep breath, "Don't be mad at him," I say and I can feel him stiffen.

"Show me," he says pulling away, I comply after a pause, stripping to my bra.

His eyes are cold, so I quickly add, "It hardly hurts, really!" and I smile my special smile, reserved just for him. He kisses me gently.

"Stop lying Jade," he says simply, pulling away.

"I'm sorry Beck," I say softly.

"Stop apologizing!" he yells suddenly. I flinch and instantly I can see regret in his eyes.

"Can't you see I'm not mad at you?" he grabs my shoulders forcing me to face him and when I still don't look at him, he lifts my chin up with his finger. I stare into his brown eyes, usually warm, but now cold and filled with pain.

"I'm mad at myself, I'm infuriated!" he says, "I should have done something about this a long time ago," the anguish in his expression is overwhelming. I put a hand to his cheek and he leans in instinctively.

"It's not your fault, Never blame yourself." I say firmly. I can't let him kill himself over me.

"I'll get you some bandages," he says and he leaves the RV. I sit on the bed, closing my eyes, I refuse to cry. I refuse cry, because if Beck saw me crying, he'd hurt even more.


Beck's POV

I can't believe myself, how could I have been foolish enough to leave the matter unattended for such a long time. I always thought Jade was strong, but she's not as strong as she looks. I of all people should have realized that! I'm such a sorry excuse for a-

"Excuse me, are you going to buy that?" the saleslady asks. I realize I was still clutching the bandages I was supposed to buy for Jade.

"Yeah, sorry," I say, looking up, "Here," I say passing her a 10 dollar note. She gives me the change and I take the bandages.

I walk out of the store, almost bumping into Tori again.

"This is becoming quite a habit," she says, rolling her eyes.

"Yeah, I'm kinda in a rush, so," I start to walk back to my car. Tori calls me back again. I sigh exasperated.

"Beck, are you okay?" she asks her eyes fill with concern, "You look worried about something," she says. You have no idea... I think to myself.

"Yeah, it's Jade, listen I really gotta-"

"Pshh, it's just Jade," she interrupts, "What did she do now? Throw a book at you because you were talking to me?"

"That's not it, I-"

"C'mon Beck, I mean, you've got to be sick of her screaming all the time right? We both know you deserves better,"

Suddenly I'm pissed at her ignorance, I feel like slapping her. I feel like screaming in her face. I deserve better? SHE deserves better. After all she's been through, Tori, of all people tells me I deserve better. Tori, who doesn't know the first thing about real pain.

"You don't know anything about Jade, Vega." I say coldly, before walking away.

Maybe I had gone too far by calling her Vega. But right now, I had more important things to deal with. Jade was waiting for me, and knowing her, she was probably crying too.


Tori's POV:

I cannot believe Beck called me that. That crushed me. And what's more, he's going back, for Jade. What's wrong with me? How could I lose to Jade, of all people. I mean seriously? They are probably the worst matched couple in history. Jade deserved nothing better than a lowlife freak case, someone just like her. She was intolerable. I would think that Beck would have fallen for me by now. No, instead, he left me, insulted me, when I was trying to HELP him realize how much more he could get. Crazy jerk... What's worse, as I watch him walk to his car, I still want him. Now more than ever.

Something's up with Jade... First I'm sure I saw a bruise on Jade's jaw. And what did Beck buy just now? Was it, possibly, bandages? For who? He was in a rush for Jade. Was Jade hurt? Why so secretive, Jade ran from the table the moment she mentioned her bruise. A normal Jade would have bit back instead of run...

Watch out Jade, I'll find out your secret, and somehow, someday, I'm gonna get Beck...


A/N: Honestly, i don't really know how Tori's gonna find out.. but i'll think of something... somehow...

Anyways: REVIEW PLEASE! i love reading them even if it's just 1 word like: fabulous or disgusting. Though of course I'd prefer constructive criticism or compliments:)
