Beck's POV
"Worst Christmas ever." Jade sighs, looking at her gifts. She didn't get a whole lot. A bunch of her family 'forgot' her gifts.
"It wasn't that bad." I say, trying to give her a kiss.
"Yeah. It really was." Jade sighs, moving her face away. "I am never going to my family's dinner again. EVER. I swear." She says, flopping onto her bed. We are at her house for once. I don't like being here, her dad doesn't love me, her little brother is cute, but won't leave us alone, and there are other people here all the time… and it isn't soundproof. And sometimes I think her stepmom is hitting on me. At least in my RV it is quiet and we are alone.
"Fine, so next year we will go out for Chinese." I say, lying beside her, and wrapping my arm around her waist. She makes a noise, which probably means that she is annoyed, and her eyes close. It is almost one in the morning, her dad is really mad at her, and her little brother was crying the last time I saw him.
"Why can't we go to your family's?" Jade asks me.
"Because Christmas isn't a 'thing' in my family. We just do whatever. That would mean having dinner with my parents and watching Canadian TV shows." I murmur, and Jade groans. She hates Canadian shows.
"Fine." She says, sitting up. "Can we go now?" She asks.
"Won't your dad hear us leaving?" I question.
"As if he cares." She mutters, pushing her hair back. "He won't even notice that we're gone."
"I don't think we should go. It will just make it worse." I say. She stands and looks through her drawers to find a pair of scissors. "Why do you keep those in your underwear drawer?" I ask her.
"My dad says he will take them away if he sees them, and he will never look in here." She takes a good look at the scissors, and then starts to look for something to rip up.
"Babe," I say, getting up and putting my arm around her. "We can go." I whisper into her ear. She is really upset, which is a weird look for her… not weird I guess, just unusual.
"Let me get my stuff." She says, and grabs her bag, throwing a couple of things in it.
"Jade, it's going to be ok." I say, and spin her around to kiss her.
"Yeah. I know." She says, and grabs a pair of boots. We slip out of her room, and try to walk down the stairs quietly. We make it out the door, and head to my car. I quickly kiss her, and get in the driver's side. Jade gets in the car, and tosses her bag into the back seat. I drive off, going a little over the speed limit. I know Jade needs to get out of here.
"It's hot in here." Jade says, rolling down her window.
"We didn't talk about what happened at Tori's party…" I said, one of my hands on her thigh.
"Why would you bring that up NOW? Seriously." Jade looks really mad. Oops.
"Jade. I didn't mean anything. It's just when things like that happen…" I trail off. I get really uncomfortable. Jade just ignores it. "I don't get how you can just push it to the back of your mind."
"NOTHING HAPPENED." Jade yells, then looks out the window. I can see her reflection in the side mirror. I think she is crying. "Why do things like that bother you? I mean, we do it behind closed doors, but when we are just…" She pauses, and gestures. "And someone walks in, it is a big deal?"
"I don't know." I sigh, and I rub her leg with my thumb.
"Whatever. I don't want to talk about it." Jade mutters, then she turns on the radio. A song she hates comes on, so she changes the channel until she finds one she likes. Jade has this huge playlist of songs for us. I actually got them for Christmas. She made a CD for me. Actually, 2. One for now, and one for if I ever dump her again. I'm a little scared to listen to that one. We always give each other playlist or CDs or something for Christmas. I think this song is on one of them.
"People say we shouldn't be together
We're too young to know about forever
But I say they don't know what they talk, talk, talkin' about
Cause this love is only getting stronger
So I don't wanna wait any longer
I just wanna tell the world that you're mine girl
Ohh
They don't know about the things we do
They don't know about the I love you's
But I bet you if they only knew
They will just be jealous of us
They don't know about the up all night's
They don't know I've waited all my life
Just to find a love that feels this right
Baby they don't know about
They don't know about us
Just one touch and I was a believer
Every day it gets a little sweeter
It's getting better
Keeps getting better all the time girl
They don't know about the things we do
They don't know about the I love you's
But I bet you if they only knew
They will just be jealous of us
They don't know about the up all night's
They don't know I've waited all my life
Just to find a love that feels this right
Baby they don't know about
They don't know about us
They don't know how special you are
They don't know what you've done to my heart
They can say anything they want
Cause they don't know about us
They don't know what we do best
That's between me and you our little secret
But I wanna tell em
I wanna tell the world that you're mine girl
They don't know about the things we do
They don't know about the I love you's
But I bet you if they only knew
They will just be jealous of us
They don't know about the up all night's
They don't know I've waited all my life
Just to find a love that feels this right
Baby they don't know about
They don't know about us
They don't know about the things we do
They don't know about the I love you's
But I bet you if they only knew
They will just be jealous of us
They don't know about the up all night's
They don't know I've waited all my life
Just to find a love that feels this right
Baby they don't know about
They don't know about us
They don't know about us
They don't know about us."
Jade always looks so innocent when she sings. She runs her tongue over her teeth, and smiles.
"I like that song." I tell her. She nods. We are almost at my house, just a block or two away. Jade's elbow is propped up on the window, her head resting on her hand. I try to keep my eyes on the road, but when I'm with Jade, having my eyes on anything else is near impossible.
"I love you." I say to her.
"Good." She murmurs, and laces her fingers with mine.
Beck's POV
"Why do you want to watch Dance Moms?" I ask her.
"It is hilarious." She says, turning up the volume. We are sitting on the floor of my RV, her head is on my shoulder, and my arm is around her waist. I roll my eyes.
"Yeah, middle aged women fighting about a dance competition while little girls are stuck in the middle." I mutter, and Jade looks up and growls at me. "Calm down. We can watch it. Anyways, your bark is worse than your bite." I joke.
"I thought you liked my bite." Jade said, curling up so her legs we on top of mine. I lean down, and kiss the top of her head.
-Beck's flashback 5-
"Little weird. Let's do it." I say, and Tori kisses me. There isn't a whole lot of feeling in it, and it just makes me want to use some lip balm. It is less than five seconds, and when I look back over the class, Jade is sitting there, her mouth open, looking angry.
"Man, I love this school." Wait… She didn't think that meant anything, did she? Jade stands up, and walks out, slamming the door behind her.
"Alright, Beck maybe you should go fix your relationship." Sikowitz says, pointing to the door. I just walk out, hoping I was going in the right direction. Jade probably went home. Or to my house and is lighting my RV on fire. What did I just do?
"Jade?" I say, not too loudly. I hear a crash, coming from the janitor's closet. I try to open the door, but it's locked.
"Jade. Let me in."
"Beck. Get the fuck away or I swear to god I will come out there and cut off all of your precious hair." I instinctively put my hand to my head, touching my hair.
"I don't care about my hair." I lie, knocking on the door.
"Shut up. You love that hair more than you love me." Jade yells.
"I don't love anything more than I love you." I heard a click, the door unlocking. I opened it. Jade is sitting on the floor, cutting up the ends of a mop.
"Jade…"
"No. Do not 'Jade' me. I CAN NOT BELIEVE YOU JUST DID THAT! Your face was on her face." She yells, pointing her scissors at me.
"Jade, it was a scene."
"What? WHAT?" She yells, standing up. "You know how I feel about her. About any other girl."
"It didn't mean anything." I said, taking a step toward her. "It never will." She takes a step towards me.
"It didn't mean anything to YOU. It meant something to me." She said, her face starting to get a bit red.
"Jade! It was nothing."
"It wasn't. If it was nothing would I be mad?"
"YES!"
"Beck, do not fucking yell at me or I swear to god..." Her scissors were getting way to close to my face. I stepped back, holding my hands up.
"Alright! What do you want?" I ask her, reaching out to touch her arm.
"I want..." She started, moving her scissors down. "I want you..." She trailed off.
"You want me?"
"Yeah."
Jade's POV
"Hahaha. Look at that lady cry!" I say, pointing at the screen.
"That woman just called her a bitch in front of her kids! Of course she is upset!" Beck exclaims, shocked at me laughing.
"That chick is crazy!" I say, holding in laughter. "What time is it?" I yawn. Beck checks his phone.
"Three." He says, tossing his phone onto the couch behind him.
"I am going to go have a shower." I stand up and go into his bathroom.
I move all Beck's hair products around to annoy him, and hide a few of them under the sink. It really bugs him. It is also hilarious. I take a shower, a fairly fast one, because it is pretty late.
When my hair is dry, I put it in a pony tail, and I put on a pair of sweatpants and one of Beck's plaid shirts. I brush my teeth, and wipe my face off.
"Uh... Jade! Come look at this!" Beck shouts. I walk out of the room, and back to where Beck is sittingg on his couch, this computer in his lap.
"What?" I ask, looking at the screen. "WHY ARE YOU ON TORI'S SLAP PAGE?" I question, my voice raising.
"Look at her update..." He says awkwardly. I look at the update.
" JadeWest and BeckOliver, what do you mean you've done IT before here? Feeling: Icky." I read out loud. "Awesome. Can I borrow your computer?" I ask.
"What are you going to write?" Beck asks me.
"SOMETHING." I say firmly, grabbing his computer.
"Jade..." He says. "It isn't her fault she over heard."
"It is her fault she wrote about it on the slap." I mutter, typing furiously. When I hit post, Beck looks at what I wrote.
"JADE! Was that necessary?" He asks, grabbing the computer. He writes another comment.
"What did you post?" I ask, checking the screen. It just says 'That was Jade on my account...' He doesn't defend her or anything.
"That is so embarassing. I cannot beleive she just did that." I mutter. I look at the screen again. I notice that his most viewed videos are my "Things I love" and "Thigns I hate" videos. Funny, because som eof those were uploaded after we broke up.
"Just forget about it." He murmurs, kissing me. I kiss him back, and soon we are lost in our own world. Beck's computer is dumped on the ground, upside down, and my hair was pulled out of its pony tail. I am slipping from under him, off of the couch onto the ground.
"Beck. I'm falling. BECK! Catch me!" I shriek, grabbing at his shirt. He tries to grab me, but I slip and land on the floor. He laughs, jumping off his couch and sitting beside me, pushing the computer farther away from us. "Ow. What the hell did I land on?" I ask, lifting my butt and pulling a remote out from under me.
"Are you OK?" He asks, wraping his arm around my waist.
"Perfect." I say, and kiss him.
