DISCLAIMER: Haven't I said this enough?
THE SAME DAY AS WE LEFT OFF…
Beck and I held hands as we ran downstairs to get ourselves some more ice cream. I am going to be so fat one day.
Beck went and got the strawberry for Ana and we both stuck to the chocolate.
As we sat on the couch and watched The Little Mermaid, I had realized something.
"We forgot all the stuff down at the beach!" I yelled.
Startled, Beck looked up wide eyed and chuckled. "You scared the crap out of me! And after we finish this ice cream, let's go back to the beach, huh?"
Ana screamed and went and got her little Tangled swimsuit on and I went up stairs and grabbed a towel and put on a different bikini than earlier. It was sparkly and a deep blue.
I walk downstairs and Beck and Anastasia are waiting for me.
"Hey, you guys go and I will meet y'all there in a few." I say.
"What are you southern?" Beck smirked.
I glared at him and he walked over and gave me a peck on the cheek. "I was just kidding."
"Can we talk?" I asked him. He looked confused and nodded.
"Ana, why don't you go clean up your room a little bit and come out when you're down then we can go to the beach." Beck said sweetly.
"Okay, Becky!" She said. I started to laugh.
"What?" He said confused.
"Becky's a girl's name." I said.
"Oh shut up!" He teased. "Now, what did you want to talk about?"
He pulls me close with his arms wrapped around my waist and my arms snaked around his neck.
"Are we… A couple?" I asked, trying not to make it sound so obvious I want to be his girl.
Beck looked a little blank, and then he replied with a grin, "Tori, will you be my girlfriend?"
I nodded and blushed and he pulled me in for a kiss.
When we broke free, Ana came out and yelled, "I'm done! Let's go to the beach!"
I laughed and as did Beck as we walked out the door, each of us holding one of Ana's hands.
*WFL*
We were about half way there when I heard a crinkling noise amongst the leaves.
"Beck, did you hear that?" I asked scared.
I heard running in the distance now.
"Yeah I heard that!" He yells and picks up Ana. He takes my hand tightly and makes it cramp and pulls me toward the beach.
As we're running, I see a patch of red hair. Cat had red hair, I think.
Just then Beck let go and walked towards the beach, hence we were at the end of the trail.
Without him knowing, I walk into the forest a little and look around.
All of a sudden, something runs into my side and drags me to the ground. I scream loudly and look at whom or what attacked me.
It looks up at me and I grin the biggest grin.
"Cat!"
It was Cat! My friend from back home! Wait, how did she get here?
We stand up and hug each other and she pulls away.
"What are you doing here?" She squeals.
"I was banished by these guards here, you know the ones who checked us if we could go with everyone else. They didn't let me through and dropped me off here."
She looked hurt. "That happened to me too. How long ago was this?"
I was lost. "Since the fire, about 2 months ago, Cat. Don't you remember?"
"I remember but, I thought the fire happened just today?"
"Is it possible that they kept you somewhere and knocked you out for 2 whole months?" I say utterly shocked.
"I guess, I am a little hungry." There's my clueless Cat.
I hug her again and I here Beck running over to us.
"Tori! I heard you scream! Are you okay? Who's she?" He asks questionably.
I smile and hug him. "I'm fine! Nothing could be better!"
Cat squeals. "Who's the cute boy?"
I laugh. "This is my boyfriend Beck."
Cat cocks her head. "How long have you been gone?"
"2 months." I say with a frown.
"Hey, I'm Beck, you must be Cat. Tori talks about you a lot." He smiles and she shakes his hand.
Cat is a petite girl at only 5'1" and Beck is at a towering 6'3", he very well looks like a sky scraper compared to her.
"Nice to meet you! I like cupcakes." She says and he laughs.
"That's great." He says confused and laughing.
Anastasia runs up to Beck. "Beck, you said you'd be right back. Who's she? She's pretty."
I laugh. "This is my best friend Cat from back home."
Ana walks up to Cat and hugs her. "Any friend of Tori is a friend of mine." Ana says.
Cat giggles. "Yay, I feel so loved."
We all pack up the beach stuff and walk back to the house where Emily and Kevin are back from their little beach house.
We walk in the door and Emily immediately jumps up. "Oh my goodness, you poor thing. Where did you come from?"
Cat smiles and I reply for her, "Cat is my best friend from back home, and apparently they did the exact same thing to her that they did to me. Do you think it might be possible for her to stay here for a while?"
Emily nods and takes Cat away to show her my room and do the exact same thing she did with me.
Beck, Ana and I sit on the couch and wait for Cat to get out of her shower.
She comes out about 10 minutes after she went in.
I stand up. "Does your phone still have power?" I ask.
She nods and frowns. "But it doesn't have signal!"
Then a light bulb turns on in my head.
"Let me see your phone!" I take the phone from her quickly before she can refuse and I scroll through the contacts.
I find Andre's number and walk to the home phone and dial his number.
"It's ringing!" I yell. "Cat, write down Andre, Robbie, and Jade's numbers now!"
"I will get pen and paper." Beck yells.
After a few rings, thankfully, Andre picks up.
"Hello?"
"Andre, it's Tori!"
He pauses. "Tori? You're alive! Where are you? Are you close to LA? Can I come and pick you up-"
"Andre, I don't think I'm coming home anytime soon. Cat and I are stuck on an island."
"Are you guys okay? Wait, how so you have a phone then?"
"There is a family living on this island and Cat and I are living with them now."
"Well, I'm glad you guys are okay. Jade and Robbie are here too, do you want to talk to them?"
"Put the damn phone on speaker Andre!"
"Calm down, Latina. Okay, you're on speaker Tori."
"Vega? Eww, I thought I was done with you." Yep that's Jade alright.
"Love you too Jade." I say sarcastically.
"Hey Toro, what's up? Are you and Cat okay?" Robbie asks concerned.
"Yes we're fine. We are living with this family on this deserted island. Well, they get packages every month so it must be easy to find."
"Alright, well we love that you guys are okay but it's like 11PM here, so we're going to go to bed. I will call you tomorrow. Bye." Andre says.
"Bye." I say.
Beck and Cat come back with pens and paper.
"Well, did you get a hold of Andre?" Cat asks.
I nod and smile. "Yes! They are happy we're okay. Well, Jade isn't happy that I am alive but whatever."
"Who's Jade and why is she so mean to you?" Beck says angrily.
I sigh and Cat answers for me. "She is our friend and she is just like that to Tori because Jade was scared that she would take her boyfriend Danny (yes from Cat's New Boyfriend) away from her."
Beck nods understanding. "That's still no reason to wish someone to be dead."
"Yeah, but if you knew her, you wouldn't really care." I say.
Emily and Kevin walk in. "So Cat you can share a room with Tori." She says smiling.
"Hey Emily?" I ask. I have a great idea.
"Yes, Tori?"
"Is it possible that the plane coming tomorrow to drop off our stuff could pick up our friends and they could have a little vacation here? Please, I haven't seen them in forever! And I really want them to meet Beck."
Emily hesitates. "Alright, they can stay a month, and you all can sleep in the beach house so you won't be bothered by us and Anastasia. "
Cat squeals. "And, I love you guys and everything but, do you think the plane could take me home when they leave? I really miss my family!"
"Of course Cat, whatever you want to do we are okay with." Kevin says.
*WFL*
The Next Day…
I wake up on the floor and Cat is on the bed spread out like a starfish.
"Cat? Did you seriously push me off the bed again? This is just like back home!"
Home, this is my home now. What I should have said was where I used to live.
"Yeah, sorry Tori." She says in her petite little girl voice.
We get up and walk downstairs to find pancakes and a big breakfast. There was fruit salad, bacon, pancakes and sausage.
"Yummy!" Cat and I said in unison.
I was stopped by someone's hands over my eyes.
"Guess who?"
"Beck, I know it's you." I smile.
He turns me around and kisses me passionately.
"Eww." Ana says.
Cat laughs while eating some strawberries.
I laugh and call Andre and the rest of our friends to tell them the news.
"So can you all come?" I ask.
"Yes!" Andre says.
"Be there!" Robbie yells.
"Whatever, I'm just going 'cause everyone else is going." Jade replies blankly.
*WFL*
Surely enough, 5 hours later, the plane landed on the beach and Cat, Beck and I ran for the plane.
Emily and Kevin unloaded the stuff we needed and introduced themselves before they went to the house.
I ran to Andre and I hugged him tightly and I could see a jealous look on Beck's face. I gave Robbie a quick hug and he looked happy to see us.
I even hugged Jade; she didn't seem to mind because she hadn't teased me in over 2 months.
Cat hugged everyone and Beck and I held hands and led everyone to the Beach House.
The beach house had 5 bedrooms. Everyone go their own rooms but Beck and I, we were going to share a room. Emily said it was okay as long as we don't do anything… With Beck, nothing could be promised.
It was your typical large cabin. Not much to it. It had a kitchen and everything a cabin has, but it looked more like a house rather than a stupid shabby cabin in the woods. And it was on the beach, hence Beach House.
We all walked into the house and set everything down, heading straight to the couch.
"Okay, I want you all to meet my boyfriend Beck." I said smiling and standing proud.
Andre looked upset. "You've known him for 2 months! How can you possibly already be his girl?"
I was taken aback. "Well I'm sorry I fell in love."
Beck came over and wrapped his arms around my waist.
Andre bursted into rage making me jump. "Don't you know how much I worried about you Tori? And I've known you my whole life and you were completely blind by how much I liked you, possibly even love!"
He stormed off out the door and ran onto the beach.
Everything was silent.
"Does anyone have cupcakes?" Cat asked playing with her hair.
Oy vey.
I do not own this catheartsu does!
