Jade's pov

If you were wondering, yes I was disappointed that Jake didn't get the part. And no, I was not excited that Beck did. I not only didn't like it, I hated it. For some reason, I just didn't want Beck to be Tyler. Oh wait, I know why. We just broke up. Plus, Cat said that when she was going to the bathroom, she saw Beck and Tori kiss. I had asked her what else happened, but she said that she immediately ran off to tell me. So not only did I get dumped by him, he goes off making out with Vega. Right after I was actually nice to her too, but after I was informed of this, I didn't feel angry at her. It looks like I, Jade West, just got over Beck Oliver.

Yes! I got the part and Jake didn't. This was perfect, but when they walked away, she didn't seem happy. She seemed sad even. I guess she really was falling for Jake and that he wasn't just the rebound guy. Looks like I actually have some competition.

At the first rehearsals for the play that Friday

Jade's pov

We were rehearsing some scenes from the play right now. We were supposed to familiarize ourselves with the lines and the characteristics of the characters and one another. When your acting like your madly in love with a person that just broke your heart and then got over, you look stiff. The acting was fine and all, but I could tell Lane was looking for the real chemistry. If he was looking for fake chemistry, he wouldn't have such a great production now would he?

"Why don't we all just take a five?" Lane said. "Except for you two," He pointed at us.

After everyone left the room for some fresh air, Lane looked back at us (Beck and I).

"I chose you two for the parts mainly because you two are great actors, and I thought that you two could push past your break up. So you guys need to work things out for the play or else I'll give the role of Tyler to Jake. The reason is because he's a phenomenal actor and he's dating Jade. The complete package. Beck, you got this part barely over Jake. Don't blow it. I'm sending you two out on a date,"

"What!" I yelled. Beck didn't say anything. It was as if he was okay with all of this. Great.

"Listen. You guys need the chemistry for this play to be its best. I was meaning for this to be surprise, but the writer of the play is coming to see the first performance," I was in shock. The writer was coming. The writer usually never comes. They all have something better to do. Now, I was determined to get this right. I know that Beck would be crushed if Jake got the part over him. If Jake was going to be my forbidden love in the play, so I'll help. He better be grateful.

I can't let Jake be Tyler. I. Just. Can't.

At the date

I was actually grateful to Lane for making us go on this date. Even if it's fake. I pulled up to her house and knocked on her door. She came out looking stunning. Even if she looked a little annoyed.

"Let's get this over with,"

After we got to the restaurant, I asked Jade a question.

"Why are you so agitated about this?"

"Why are you not?"

"Because I like this,"

"Why?"

"Because I like being with you,"

"Well, you didn't like being with me when we were at Tori's house!" I shuddered at the mention of my stupid decision.

"That's what I wanted to talk about,"

"What?"

"I think I made a mistake,"

"You think?"

"I know,"

"Oh so now you know not think?"

"Why must you make this complicated?"

"So now I make this complicated for you?"

"Yes, and I like that about you," That got her to be quiet. Then, she did something that I never got her to do in public. She smiled.

a/n Let's see what I can tell you guys about. Umm, I updated twice today because I got super bored. I also had no school. Okay, I have a riddle for you guys. I got this out of a really good book, but I forgot the name. Super sorry. What comes next? (Ha! That's almost the name of the story!)

First to guess will…. I don't, but it's fun to try. Right?
