I'm heaps sorry guys, this update is short, enjoy though! Please review! It means heaps to me! Xoxo!

Paige's POV

That night I didn't even emerge from my bedroom to eat dinner with my family. The tears never stopped all night and there was a wet patch the size of a soccer ball on my pillow. It took all my willpower and the constant banging of my mother's hand on my bedroom door to pull me out of bed the next morning. When I arrived to school the bell had rang for first period and I just made it to my music class before the teacher. I moped around and only spoke to Andre. Once lunch came along I realised that I had to 'man up', Beck and Jade probably didn't even know that I'd left the lunch table shortly after them yesterday. Unless of course someone else had told them, but I didn't think these people were like that, except for maybe the curly haired boy's puppet who always had something sarcastic to say. I'd heard a story about that puppet – apparently he'd sabotaged someone's wire during a performance and the girl got badly hurt.

When I moved to the lunch table with Cat after buying a bottle of lemonade and a sandwich everyone except for Beck and Jade were already there. I sighed into my seat and was relieved when no-one questioned my abrupt departure yesterday afternoon. They merely smiled at me and began conversation, talking excitedly about going to that karaoke club tonight they'd mentioned yesterday.

"Paige are you still coming?" Tori asked taking a sip from her water bottle.

"Yeah, I think so; if anything comes up I'll let you know." I smiled politely at her. Jade and Beck joined our table then and I did my best to act as if nothing had happened yesterday.

"Hey guys!" Cat squealed, making everyone jump. "Are youse still coming tonight?"

"Yeah, I suppose we can come and hang out with you guys THIS Friday night…instead of well having hot sex…" Jade said and I nearly choked on my sandwich. They were having sex? Dumb mental question, Paige. Of course they were they had been dating for a year. Don't act so surprised, just act normal.

"Jade, is that really necessary?" Beck said. Yes Beck, control your girlfriend. That's when I began to wonder whether or not Beck had told Jade about our previous intimate relationship. Maybe that was why she was acting like this, although, nobody else seemed all that surprised with Jade's comment on their sex life, so maybe she did this often. I did my best to ignore the comment and continue the conversation.

"Can all of you guys sing?" I questioned politely, sipping from my lemonade casually. It was Cat who answered.

"Yeah, well I guess except for Robbie, and Beck doesn't really sing much. That reminds me, this one time my brother and I were on a plane and -." She was cut off by Jade's hand sharply covering her mouth. When Jade removed her hand, Cat pouted for a little while then shrugged and went back to eating her salad.

"It's true, I can't sing." Robbie wasn't at all offended by Cat's comment.

I was curious about Beck not singing, all he did during that summer was write songs and play his guitar for me, why would he stop? Was the memory of me too painful, or did the hobby just get boring? Everyone changes, he'd really changed, I didn't know him anymore.

"Why don't you sing, Beck?" I asked curiously. His head snapped up when I said his name, he looked surprised that I knew his name. That's when it hit me, he didn't know. He didn't know that I remembered and he hadn't realised that I knew who he was.

"I got into this school for acting, that's all I want to do, so why should I sing?" He replied, but it didn't sound like him, he sounded upset and frustrated, actually he sounded pissed off. Jade looked surprised by his attitude, but pleased nonetheless, a smirk on her face.

Beck, are you alright?" Tori asked, glancing around at everyone's mutual expressions of shock. He wasn't like this; he'd never been like this. He had always been so cool and collected, so…patient and based on the expressions that were plastered to the other members of the lunch table's faces this was out of the ordinary for Beck.

Instead of replying, he pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and finger, breathing deeply. Jade was holding his other hand in hers and whispering in his ear. Everyone else at the table was exchanging looks of confusion. I couldn't stand to sit here and wait for Beck to regain his composure; he obviously had a problem with my presence, so I just stood up, grabbed my bag and walked off, unsure of where I was headed, ignoring the sound of Tori and Cat calling me back.

I ended up in a stall of the girl's bathroom, reading the markings on the walls as if they were a novel. That's when I noticed something odd. In the top right-hand corner of the stall door, there was a small message written in very neat writing.

He's mine, bitches be warned.

Then it was signed underneath.

-JW

I simply put my face in my hands and cried.

I know it was heaps short, like the shortest I've ever written, but I'm thinking up something big and didn't want to get TOO far ahead of myself! Please don't alert or favourite without reviewing – I just love reading your reviews! Xoxoxo - Z
