A/N: New chapter, and finally some Bade fluff. :)
Extremes
Chapter 9: Jade
Jade stared at her empty black suitcase. She then looked over at Cat who was rummaging through her drawers. "You can't wear all black in Cancun. You'll burn up!" Cat said pouting that every item of clothing the dark shade. "Where's the blue? Or red?" Cat asked as Jade pointed to the closet. The petite girl skipped to the closet, opening it with a smile. She then started piling the colored clothing into the suitcase. Jade just watched. "What's wrong? Too much red?" Cat asked, noticing that she did put a lot of red unworn clothing. "No."
"Is this about the field thing?" Jade didn't speak. "What's bothering you so much, you've been locked up here forever. I miss going to Karaoke Dokie every Friday with you. I have no one to share my buffalo nuggets with."
"I don't want to go back." Jade said plainly, knowing Cat would understand. She didn't want to go back to the old Jade. The one before Hollywood Arts. The one who's favorite color was pink. Who had a dream of being the most successful actress on Broadway. The one who was almost as bubbly as Cat... well Cat on a bad day, which was still really bubbly. The one who's dream was crushed by the audition for the Wizard of Oz. After that audition everything changed. Bubbly Jadelyn, turned into cold Jade. Her happy-go-lucky attitude, turned into I-don't-give-two-shits-so-get-out-my-face. All her real friends had came to an understanding about the change, and learned to love the new Jade almost as much as old Jadelyn. The only one who didn't understand was Tori. However, since she wasn't around then, she would never understand. "You don't have to go back, you just need to live a little." Jade smiled, it was always funny when Cat, of all people, gave serious advice about life. "Why not sing? That always makes you feel better."
"I just want to be okay, be okay, be okay. I just want to be okay today. I just want to feel today, feel today, feel today. I just want to feel something today. Open me up and you will see, I'm a gallery of broken hearts. I'm beyond repair, let me be. And give me back my broken parts." Jade sung beautifully, Cat smiled, harmonizing with her for the next part. "I just want to know today, know today, know today. I just want to know something today. Know that maybe I will be okay." Jade giggled, making Cat's smile grow wider. Cat's phone started to vibrate, she quickly checked it. "I have to go now. Have fun on your trip Jade! I'm so excited for you. Maybe you'll tan!" Jade's face fell, and Cat frowned. "Uhm... bye." She said quickly leaving the room. Jade pulled out her own cellphone, dialing Beck.
"Cancun is... so sunny." Jade commented as she pulled on her sunglasses as she and Beck left their hotel room and headed to the pool. "What did you expect it to be? Like Alaska?"
"That would be nice." Beck's arm snaked its way around her shoulders, pulling her into him. "Hey, look. A cute little... thing."
"It's called a kid, Jade. Hola." Beck shook his head at his girlfriend as they entered the elevator. "Hallo." The couple's eyes widened. They both were confused at the young boy's way of saying hello. The elevator stopped at a floor, and the boy turned to the couple. "Auf Wiedersehen." The elevator closed. "Did he just speak German?" Beck asked, shocked. "Yes..." The elevator opened again, and the two teens left, still shocked. No more assuming everyone is Mexican.
Jade sat in the hot tub, the jets hitting her back comfortingly. Beck sat on the pavement next to the hot tub. "It's like a hundred degrees... why are you in a hot tub?"
"I like pretending that I'm soup! Is that a crime?"
"No... not at all."
"What are you doing?" a little girl asked, running up to Jade. Jade raised an eyebrow at the brown haired ten-year old. "I'm being cooked by witches. They want to eat me, like human soup."
"Can I play?" The girl asked, smiling widely. Jade smiled. "I'm not playing a game. I'm cursed. Here..." Jade took off one of her woven bracelets, handing one to the girl. "Wear this, and in no time, a witch will be cooking you for dinner."
"Don't believe what..." Beck was cut off by Jade growling. "Let her take the bracelet!" She spat through gritted teeth. The little girl ran away, the bracelet in hand. "You are a horrible influence."
"Its harmless fun. Plus, I didn't like that bracelet anyways."
"Tori gave that to you."
"Which is why I didn't want it."
"You would normally be put in a time out, but I will overlook it, this time."
"Tell me you love me." Jade said, standing so she looked Beck right in his eyes. "Magic word?" Beck asked, like he always did. It was nice to bring out the old Jade every once in a while, even if she tried to make her disappear forever. "Please?"
"I love you." He smiled, kissing her lips passionately.
(very small, tiny, microscopically bitter taste of lemon here. If you don't know what 'lemon' means... don't tell your mother, but it means, sexy time. You can skip it, you can read it, its nothing graphic. I don't care if you want your innocence in tack, its not my problem, but if you get caught in an awkward position here, i'm terribly sorry... I'm also sorry that I came off as a jackass ten seconds ago. Its only like two sentences long, and if your uncomfortable reading about sex, skip those two sentences, I won't mind.)
Beck thrust into Jade a final time, causing her to moan in satisfaction. Euphoria shot through both of their bodies as they reached their own climaxes. Beck kissed Jade's forehead before collapsing next to her. Jade curled up in the sheets, thinking. Five minutes later, she turned to see Beck sleeping peacefully. She got out of the bed, grabbing her toiletries and her pajamas, tip toeing to the bathroom.
She entered, turned on the shower and stepped in. The warm water hitting her skin, and soaking her hair. She grabbed her loofah and body wash, pouring some on the bath sponge before scrubbing off her "tattoo". Everyone thought the star tattoo was real, when really... it was a temporary one. She reapplied it everyday. It didn't bother her, because she knew, no matter how much she wanted to embrace the new Jade...she would never get a real tattoo in a spot as obvious as her inner right arm. Jadelyn wouldn't let her. Just like Jadelyn wouldn't let Jade be cold, or called scary, or not show some compassion towards other. That's why Jade ended up in that field alone. It was Jadelyn's favorite place. The field was once filled with beautiful flowers, and blueberry bushes. Kind of random for a town like LA, but it was peaceful. So very peaceful. Jadelyn would go and dance in the flowers, singing them songs like "You Are My Sunshine." Of course, the flowers had to go. The owner of the field pulled the flowers, roots and all, and covered it in fake grass. "It would be turned into a golf course." He told her once. He died before he was able to sign it over to the city. It now stays as an ugly, cold, fake grassy field forever. When Jadelyn found out that she didn't make it as Dorothy, she started to visit the ugly grass field week, scissors in hand, cutting the grass or weeds or anything close to looking like a flower. The field symbolized one thing. The death of Jadelyn, and the birth of Jade.
A/N: So I know that wasn't a lot of Bade fluff, well not like I intended it to be, but don't worry. More is to come. Only about 6 chapters left (next chapter is Sinjin which... is full of surprises), so I guess its now time to reveal...
there is a possibility of a sequel! It depends on how you guys feel about a sequel. I
would love to write a sequel, because if I do, I get to turn chapter 15 into a part 1! :D
So, please let me know if you are interested in a sequel. I think it would be fun.
