Remember what I said about a time jump...

Disclaimer: Disclaimed.


After the incident at Lazer Tag... a line was drawn in the sand. Neither of us were willing to cross it.

Six months went by quicker than anyone could've known. I continued seeing Maya... and Jade saw whatever jerk she decided to see... I don't really know... there were so many.

We really settled into our routines in those six months. I became integrated into the popular crowd, parties every weekend, coffee nearly every day together... Jade on the other hand... well, I hardly saw anyone around her. Other than Cat and a few boys who thought they might "Tame the Beast". That's what I hear they're calling the game. Whoever can get Jade to date them...

It was kind of misogynistic and disgusting but whatever, I wasn't involved in it.

It was a Friday afternoon and I had just gotten home from the coffee shop where I learned of a wild party that was being held tonight at some Northridge girl's house. I was about to call Maya to see what time I should pick her up.

"Hey Maya, it's me. Listen that party tonight... what time do you want me to pick you up... oh... really?... Man, that sucks... I could... You sure?...Alright... See you Monday."

Maya's mom had told her that she had to stay home all weekend and study for midterms. I offered to stay with her, but she told me to go have fun.


When I got to the party, my eyes were assaulted with maybe 50-ish guys hanging red solo cups off of their ears, noses, and lips. Ah high school parties...

I picked up a drink and relaxed.

That was when I saw her... stilettos, fish nets, a mini skirt, and something that shouldn't qualify as a shirt. And blue streaked hair.

My first reaction was to run over... well... that wasn't my... first reaction... Anyway! I couldn't believe that Jade would go to a party dressed like this, didn't she know what could happen?

I ran over to her and grabbed her arm and rushed her into the first space we could be alone in that I could find.

She pushed me away. "Beck? What the hell!?"

I stared at her, was she kidding? I was so mad my vision started fuzzing, or maybe that was the drink, which way stronger than I thought it would be... Back to Jade, I couldn't begin to understand how she got herself into this crazy situation.

So I decided that tonight, I was going to go a little crazy.

Why not? I figured. I've got nothing to lose.

Since Beck and I had that silent huge fight at the Lazer Tag thing... things have changed.

First of all he became... one of them, just a sheep like the rest of them. I stopped caring about anyone or anything... except Cat, of course. Since the whole "Eli Thing", I guess word got around that, I don't know, maybe they'll think I'll sleep with them or something, because these guys will not leave me alone. But hey, if they want to buy me stuff, be my guest.

Tonight I was mad. Mad at my dad, not the craziest concept in the world. And I decided to rebel, also, nothing fancy here. Cat told me that her friend from her old school, Northridge, was throwing a party that night. So I decided to go. I picked out the smallest outfit I could find before sneaking out my window to the party.

When I got there, Cat was nowhere to be found. Whatever, I don't need anyone to have a good time. People were handing me drinks, left and right, who was I to say no? What can I say, I like being given stuff.

At some point I started dancing on a table. I don't know, it's a party, shit happens.

All of a sudden someone roughly grabbed my arm and dragged me into another room.

When I saw who it was, I was furious.

"Beck?! What the hell!?" He looked furious with me, too.

"Are you insane?!" He asked, "Do you realize what happens at these things, and you come here, dressed like... that!"

"Something wrong with my outfit?!" I said, "Sorry I forgot that I needed your approval before getting dressed in the morning!"

"SHUT UP JADE!" I was so mad.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! SHUT UP!? SERIOUSLY?! I CAN DO WHATEVER THE HELL-"

Then he kissed me, hard.

Then I kissed him back, harder.

And that's the last thing I remember.


;) What should happen next?
