Disclaimer: Never have I ever, own Victorious. No matter how much I wish I did though.
This chapter will totally focus on the separated groups - Beck and André, Cat and Robbie. Hope you like it! Cabbie moment, if you consider it.
"Urgh. Are we ever going to find a doctor for Jade?" André questioned, plodding slowly behind the fluffy haired boy, sounding weary. "Yes, we are. Even if it's that eleven years old kid, we'd have to get him to cure Jade." Beck responded, sounding determined even though part of him was losing hope, since the last three guards they've asked told them nonchalantly that no doctors were allowed in Yerbanian prison.
"Beck," André placed his left hand on Beck's right shoulder, which made him halt and turn to face André. "I know you're anxious to get a doctor to cure Jade, but there's no point in asking those guards over and over again!" he exclaimed, throwing his arms up in the air to further emphasize his point, "The answers from them will still be the same - no doctors in this here prison. You'll have to accept that, man." André's hard expression softened at the end of his statement, as he flashed Beck a soft smile; in hopes of making him feel better despite the current situation.
André felt remorseful. He realized that what he just said was hard for Beck to accept, but he knew he had to get the facts through Beck's stubborn mind. Of course, who would like to hear that there was absolutly no hope in finding a doctor to cure one's loved one? Beck certainly didn't like the slightest idea of it.
Beck let his gaze fell to the grey concrete ground, then closed his eyes in a grim and weary expression, seemingly taking in what his best friend had just said - about how was it impossible to get a doctor for his beloved girlfriend is this prison. When Beck had recomposed himself a few seconds later, he ran his fingers through his fluffy hair - a habit he had pick up for whenever he's feeling nervous or troubled.
He turned away from André again, and ran his hand through his hair once more as he swallowed back a lump in his throat. André reached out a hand to Beck's shoulder in attempt to calm him down, but he shrugged it away. "It's okay." He said calmly, taking in a deep breath. "I get the message that doctors aren't allowed here, but I guess I just didn't want to accept it." He let the breath out heavily, before giving André a small disappointed smile, then making a u-turn, and advancing back to where the Vega sisters and Jade are at. André sighed and shook his head, as he shamble behind Beck, following his path towards the cell.
"One time, when my brother went downstairs to get a glass of water, he found out that what he was drinking wasn't water." Cat rambled on, as Robbie acted like as if he's actually paying attention to what the bubbly redhead was talking about. "What my brother was drinking was green in colour, and nobody found out what it was though." Cat shrugged, as her attention and smile was cut short when she grabbed and shook the door handle that lead to the cafeteria. "Aw, phooey. I can't open it."
"Let me try." Robbie grabbed the door handle which Cat just released, and tried to turn it. However, it was to no avail at all. "It's locked. Guess they only opened it for breakfast." "Aww, then now what do we do? Jade needs water!" Cat pouted, as she turned to Robbie for any sign of idea as to what to do.
"How about we ask one of those nice guards over there?" Robbie stated, jabbing his thumb towards where two guards was stand guarding the entrance to the courtyard. "They look scary." Cat whimpered, grabbing onto Robbie's shoulders as she peek at the guards timidly from behind him. "And I'm sure they'll be mean to us." Cat added, afraid of what will happen if they agitate the guards.
"Well, I'm sure if we ask real nicely, they won't be mean to us." Robbie soften his tone as he turned to face the bubbly redhead in an orange jumpsuit, trying to calm her down. Cat sighed, but nodded her head grimly, reluctant to even look at those mean-looking guards straight in the eyes. Robbie grab her hand and tugged her towards the direction of where the guards were standing at.
"Erm, excuse us, sirs." Robbie started, gaining the guards' attention. "We were wondering, where can we get a glass of water in this pleasant prison of Yerba?" both guards exchange glances with each other, then back at the duo. Cat shifted uncomfortably under the attention of the guards, shuffling her feets together, suddenly find the crack on the concrete floor very interesting as she divert her full attention at it.
"The cafeteria is closed, buddies. Ya'll have to wait till lunch time for water." the first guard with short, curly brown hair replied, irritation lacing his tone as he gave Robbie's question a dismissive shrug. Robbie fought the urge to roll his eyes at the guard, fearing what they may do to them if he showed disrespect outwardly towards the guards armed with foot-long truncheons.
Instead, Robbie thanked the guards and was about to leave the scene with Cat, but not before he was stopped by a hand that was placed on his shoulder. Robbie turned to face Cat as she spoke up, directing her question towards the guards and retreating her hand from Robbie's shoulder.
"Is there a doctor who's able to cure Jade?" she questioned, "See, Jade's a friend of ours and she's really really sick, and we want to find a doctor who can get rid of the icky sickness she got!" Cat explained, bleaming at the guards with hopefulness sprawled across her face.
"No." the second guard with bushy mustache answered with a low, deep tone that allowed his Yerba accent to flow quite smoothly, "No doctors allowed in Yerba prison unless the Chancellor gave special permission." the hopeful and enthusiastic expression was wiped completely off of Cat's face.
Cat grimaced, guilt and helplessness taking over her as she felt useless in helping her best friend when she needed her the most. Sure, Jade's not exactly the friendliest; nor is she the most affectionate person in the world - but, contrary to popular believe that Jade West doesn't have a heart nor a soft side, if her any one of her friends, including Tori, needed her, she'll be there to help to the best of her ability.
Now that Jade's the one who needed a helping hand, Cat felt that she was unable to lend one. Jade was her best friend, yet she can't help her feel better when she's down with a sickness - even when the task was as simple as getting a glass of water. "Cat? Hellooo, Cat are you still there?" the voice of Robbie brought Cat back from the beating up she was giving herself.
"Yeah." that was all the reply Robbie got in return, "Is the tap water safe to drink though?" Cat questioned the guard with bushy mustache, ignoring Robbie's concern look directed on her. "Yeah, our great Chancellor make sure the water from the tap was always safe for consuming." he spoke with pride and respect at the mentioning of their mighty Chancellor's name.
The duo nodded and thanked them politely as they turned and started perambulating back to where they came from. After awhile, Robbie grew weary of the silence between them and decided to end it. "Hey Cat, what do you think Jade got?" Robbie asked enthusiastically, glancing at the redhead walking alongside him.
"I dunno. Maybe the milk didn't agree with her stomach." Cat responded, shrugging her shoulders. "Hmm, it may be possible, but didn't you girls all get the same milk? How come only Jade is sick if that's the case?"
"What's that suppose to mean?!" Cat exclaimed, throwing her arms up in the air, looking hurt. "No, no. I mean that since you gir-" "Wait! Jade did not get the same chocolate milk as us, she got a new batch." Robbie pause in his track, letting the newly gained information to register in his head.
"That may explain why Jade's the only one sick." Robbie concluded, "C'mon, let's go." he grabbed Cat by the wrist and tugged, forcing her to run behind him as fast as possible back to the cell.
Well? Was it descriptive enough to imagine the scene? :) I tried real hard to add in more Beck and André scene, but it'll sound weird and I didn't want to ruin it. :) would you consider the Cat and Robbie part as Cabbie? I don't think the romance is there. :( nonetheless, I really hope you enjoyed reading it! ;)
