Beck left after about half an hour and Jade finally came downstairs so Tori turned to her and sighed sadly. "Could you consider letting him in? He is suffering, he misses you and he really cares about you" She commented.

"I know but don't want him to get into trouble for me and right now things are fine, my dad hasn't even spoken to me…deep inside I know he regrets hitting me" Jade said. "I haven't seen that pervert and Crystal has only talked to me three times but nothing relevant has happened, everything will go back to normality"

"And when is that man leaving? Does your father still not know that they're hooking up?" Tori questioned.

"He probably suspects it's true but he doesn't want to believe it, I don't even think he cares…" Jade said sincerely. "But I think he's leaving soon, Crystal said she will go see her mother to London for a few days and he'll have nothing to do at home so I guess they'll leave together, I think their flight leaves tonight"

"Thank god" Tori said and Jade nodded.

"Yes, he is gross" She added.

"Well, then I guess things will return to normality soon right?" Tori asked and Jade sighed.

"I hope so, I miss him too" Jade admitted and Tori smiled sadly. "But let's not talk about that now, play the movie…"

"Sure" They watched the movie, ate pizza and went to bed late at night. Next morning was a weekend so they didn't have to go to school and Jade didn't care about returning home because only her father was there and that was equals being home alone.

"So I'll see you at school on Monday, are you sure you don't want to stay here all weekend?" Tori asked as she walked Jade to the door.

"No, it's alright…I want to take a shower and change into my clothes but don't worry, things will go back to normality on Monday" Jade informed and Tori smiled.

"Really? Will you get back together with Beck and the rest of us?" She asked happily and Jade nodded.

"I thought about it all night and there's really no point in delaying it, is there? Things won't change much after now anyway, my dad is an asshole, my stepmother is a bitch...My family sucks but I'm tired of just focusing on that, at this point I don't even care anymore" Jade said and sighed. "I want to feel as normal as possible and I want my life to be good, the only thing I can do to start enjoying my life again is to do what I did before and that starts with you guys" she commented sincerely and Tori smiled gladly.

"I'm so happy you made that choice, it'll be a nice surprise on Monday" Tori commented. "Everyone is gonna be so happy to have you back, just like this never happened, and we could even talk about getting you out of there, you don't need that man at all"

"We'll see about that, I also think anything would be better than having to interact with those people" she responded and Tori nodded.

"I can't wait for everything to go back to normality, it's gonna be great!" Tori exclaimed and Jade chuckled.

"Yeah, it will...I'm excited too and It's Saturday so Monday is almost here. I'll meet you at school, make sure you're all together" Jade said and Tori nodded. "Bye Tori"

Jade went back home and when she stepped inside she didn't see anyone in the main hall. However, she smelled alcohol so she looked into the living room and saw her father already very drunk and almost unconscious from drinking. She didn't even bother to speak to him and simply went upstairs.

Jade stepped into her room and laid down on her bed just staring at the ceiling but all the sudden she heard her door closing so she immediately sat confused and saw Jeremy standing there. "What the fuck are you still doing here?" Jade asked disconcertedly.

"I'm staying a few more days" He informed. "Crystal is not here so why don't you keep me in company?" He suggested and she stood up shaking her head.

"Not even in your best dreams" Jade affirmed. "Get out of my room"

"Or what?" He asked as he got closer to her.

"I'm going to scream and call the police" She responded and he chuckled.

"Good luck with that" Jeremy said and grabbed the back of her head to keep her under control while covering her mouth with his other hand. Jade quickly kneed him between his legs and punched his neck with her fist so he collapsed. "You fucking bitch"

Jade pushed him out of the way and stormed out of her room to go downstairs, she immediately tried to open the door but he had locked it so she couldn't do it. "OPEN!" She screamed desperately and started kicking it but then she heard his laughter upstairs.

"You can't leave this house, sweetheart, everything is locked so just come here and play with me" He said as he walked downstairs calmly and she started feeling actual fear. Jade didn't know what to do so she ran into the living room and saw her father.

"Dad, dad help me! DAD! HELP ME" Jade begged as she shook him desperately. He wasn't completely passed out but he didn't even pay attention to her, he simply stated pushing her hands away just so he would be able to sleep. "DAD, PLEASE!" She screamed as she cried her eyes out because she was terrified.

"Daddy doesn't want to help you, darling, just face it…we are alone" Jeremy said smiling satisfied and she started walking back scared as he calmly followed her around the room. "Yes, Jade, nothing you do can save you from what's going to happen and you should be okay with that, you'll like it"

"Stay away from me" Jade demanded nervously but then Mr. West made a sound so they both turned to him. "DAD! DAD PLEASE HELP ME" Jade screamed as she ran towards him again but he continued sleeping. "Don't do this to me, not now…please!" she exclaimed as she repeatedly shook him. Jeremy was getting tired so he simply embraced her from behind to take her upstairs but she was holding on to her father's body. However, he ultimately pulled her away. "NO! DAAAAAAAD!"

"Shut up!" Jeremy said angrily and dragged her upstairs but she kept screaming desperately. They got to her room and he threw her on the bed, she immediately tried to drag herself away but he got on top of her and put his hands around her neck. "You stay here" He ordered but she continued fighting.

Jeremy was tired of that so he tried to knock her out by punching her face but he only got to make her dizzy for a few seconds. However, that was enough time for him to rag Jade's stockings, pull her skirt up and break her shirt open on her chest. "That's better…" He said as he got on top of her again and she continued fighting

"GET OFF ME!" Jade screamed desperately but he ignored her. "NO! STOP PLEASE STOP"

"Just enjoy it…" He said as he caught his breath and tried to start but couldn't.

Jade stared at him on top of her and realized he was too distracted trying to rape her to pay attention to what she would do next, so she got ready and two seconds later stuck her thumbs into his eyes as hard as she could so he immediately screamed and got off. Jade ran out of the room and tried to get to the kitchen to grab a knife but he had gone behind her and he pushed her so she fell down the stairs instead; however, she wasn't completely unconscious and she tried to get up again.

"We are not done yet" Jeremy said angrily as she basically crawled into the living room to get away from him. He simply grabbed her hair to make her stand up again and turned her around so she would face him. "That wasn't a nice thing to do…" He commented and she stared at him coldly. "You are going to finish what we started and you'll stop fighting" He said as he grabbed her head with both hands.

"Fuck you" Jade said while trembling with blood on her lips from the punch. Jeremy didn't even think about it, he threw her to the floor violently but she smashed her face on the table next to the couch instead, it was made of glass so everything broke with her head and she hit the floor completely unconscious.

"Jade?" Jeremy questioned nervously when he realized he'd thrown her too volently and moved her with his foot a couple of times but she remained still. "Holy shit…" he said scared when she didn't move. He got on his knees and turned her over a little to see her face but he noticed she had a lot of blood on her forehead and some tiny cuts on her face. "What do I do?" He asked himself and took a breath but after several seconds he came up with a plan.

Jeremy grabbed some bottles from the table and spilled all the alcohol on Jade's body, then he simply dropped the bottles next to her, unbuttoned Mr. West's pants as he slept and used a tissue to put some of Jade's blood on her father's hands and shirt. "That's it, now I need to get the fuck out of here" He went to get his suitcase, made sure he hadn't left anything in any of the rooms and left the house trying not to be seen.

Mr. West woke up a few hours later but he didn't even see Jade, he only went to the bathroom on the other side of the living room and went back to the couch. He was completely gone all the time so he kept drinking, falling asleep and repeating the cycle while Jade's body laid next to the big couch just the way it had landed after Jeremy smashed her head against the table.

On Monday Tori reunited the gang at school waiting for Jade, she could not wait for her to arrive and fix things with everyone. "What's the big surprise, Tori?" Andre asked curiously.

"Just wait" Tori said, they were all in the main hall staring at the door but an hour went by and Jade didn't show up.

"So…?" Robbie asked and Tori looked down.

"I don't know, I'm sorry guys…it'll probably have to wait to another day" She commented sadly.

"Will you at least tell us what this was all about?" Andre asked.

"That would take the surprise away, I'll see if I can arrange it for tonight" Tori commented and they nodded.

"Fine…"

"Let's go to class then" Beck said and they all went to Sikowitz's class but Tori couldn't stop thinking about Jade. They had specifically planned to meet at school on Monday so she couldn't understand why Jade would miss it. The whole day went by and Jade never arrived to school so Tori felt disappointed and confused but she assumed Jade had probably gotten nervous or something.

"Beck…" Tori said when she saw him walking by to go to the parking lot.

"Hey Tori, what's up? Did the surprise arrive?" He asked and she shook her head.

"No, she didn't" Tori responded.

"She?" Beck asked.

"Jade, it was Jade…she said she would fix things with you and the others today, I don't understand why she didn't come" Tori commented confused.

"Hold on, you've been talking to Jade?" Beck questioned and Tori nodded.

"She made me promise I wouldn't tell you anything but she thinks it's the right time to get back to normality, she misses you…and the rest of us too" She informed and he smiled.

"Then why would she miss school? What if something happened to her?" He questioned worriedly.

"No, no she probably just regretted it…but if that's the case, I think we should go see her and maybe you'll convince her, she would say yes" Tori said and Beck thought about it.

"Yes, yes...let's go see her then…"


I know, terrible timing for Jade...
