Cat's POV

I couldn't sleep at all. I was so excited for tomorrow. I couldn't wait for Jade to get me. I knew I was going to be okay. Jade was going to make sure of it. I glanced at the clock. 3 in the morning. We had an afternoon flight, at noon, so I didn't have to wake up early, although I wouldn't have minded much. I fingered the tape recorder Jade gave me. My only job was to get a recording of his plan so that Jade could still live with her mom and I would be safe.

I was thinking about my life in general, and then I heard the door to my bedroom creak open. I looked up to see a silhouette of a big man in the doorway. I shut my eyes and pretended to be asleep.

"George, she's here, and she's asleep," the head security guard said.

"Good. I saw her talking with some kids through the fence. Keep an eye on her," my captor ordered. Shoot. They saw me talk to Jade.

"George, are you sure she wasn't talking to some of the gardeners? Are you sure you got a clear view of them?"

I cracked my eyes open in time to see one of the big men shake his head. "I don't know."

"George, she's here, fast asleep. Don't worry too much. She's clueless."

The door shut and I was left alone again. I sighed in relief. So he saw me talk to Jade. I was going to have to sneak away to the bathroom, but knowing him, he'll probably send someone with me. Oh well. If they brought the guys then we should have no problem. I shut my eyes and attempted drifting asleep. Success.

Jades POV

After we dropped everyone off, we returned to Beck's house.

"Jade, let's go to sleep. We have a big day tomorrow." Beck said.

I nodded. "But first, we have to get your parents bug suitcase."

We walked into Beck's house to find Beck's little sister playing with her Barbie's by herself.

"Lacy, where's mom and dad?" Beck asked. Lacy looked up and froze with fear.

"Get Jade away!" She screamed. I sighed and waited in the back hallway. Beck's sister had never been a fan of me. The first day I met Beck's parents and Lacy, I cut off all the hair of her dolls saying they needed a haircut. Yeah. I'm great with kids. Beck walked over to where I was standing.

"Lacy said they're in my RV."

I took his hand and we walked to Beck's RV, where his parents were waiting impatiently on his couch.

"Hey mom, dad," Beck said, scratching the back of his neck. His nervous habit.

"Beck. Whose clothes are these?" His mom asked calmly, holding up a pink lacy bra that I hoped was Cat's.

"Uh…Jades?" Beck tried. It was a stretch considering my boobs weren't as big as Cat's ad I never wore pink.

"I'm having a hard time believing you," Mrs. Oliver said.

"Why?"

"Jade doesn't wear pink."

He sighed and looked at me. I set my jaw in a line and kept my mouth shut, not wanting to make it any worse.

"IS she not allowed to wear pink?" Beck challenged.

"I suppose, but I assumed this one was hers, and this pink bra is much larger than this black one," Mrs. Oliver said, holding up one of my bras. Shoot.

Beck looked at me, so I sighed.

"Mrs. Oliver, that pink one is Cat's. Cat Valentine?" I said.

"I know who she is. The one with the red hair." Me and Beck nodded.

"Why are her…undergarments in here?" Beck's dad spoke up.

Beck looked at me for an answer. I thought for a second.

"Cat had a sleepover with me about a week ago, and she left that at my house, so I put it in my bag, and I guess I never gave it back when I came here," I explained, satisfied with my lie.

"Then who's is this?" Mrs. Oliver challenged, holding up Cat's pink duffel bag. I groaned.

"Cat's," Beck said.

"Care to explain why you have two girls staying in here at once?" Mr. Oliver said to Beck. Beck bit his lip.

"Because Cat needed a place to stay, and so did Jade."

"Where is Cat now?"

"What is this, 20 questions?" I blurted. Beck held back a smile. "Listen. Cat stayed one night. She met somebody for a date tonight, I'm sure she'll be back to pick up her stuff soon," I lied.

Beck's parents sighed. "We'll let you off easy on this one."

"Wait! Mom, can me and Jade use the big suitcase?" Beck asked. Mrs. Oliver gave Beck a puzzled look.

"May I ask why?"

"Because I bet Jade that she'll be able to fit in it, and she doesn't think so. C'mon! Five dollars are on the line!" Beck grinned. I went along with it.

"Five dollars more in my pocket!" I teased. Beck's mom looked at us wearily.

"Sure, I'll bring it out."

Cat's POV

I woke up at 8, after a nice 5 hour sleep. I felt my pocket for the tape recorder. Still there. I opened the door to come face to face with Hensworth.

"Where do you think you're going?" He asked. I sighed.

"Downstairs for breakfast?" I replied. He nodded and followed me down the stairs.

I ate eggs and bacon, and then lazed around until 10.

"Caterina, we best be going now. With the traffic we do not want to miss our flight." I nodded.

We hopped in the limo and I sat quietly until I remembered the tape recorder in my pocket. I reached for it and put it in my lap without him noticing. I pressed record.

"So, what are we going to do in New York?" I asked. He gave an evil grin.

"Caterina. I have been lying to charities to give me money. I need them to believe you are my mentally unstable daughter, so you are personally meeting them and maybe receiving a few awards. You just walked into the biggest lie ever, and there's no way out. I'm sending you to boarding school after this. I want nothing to do with you," He said. I was horrified, but I clicked the off button. I had my proof, now it's time for Jade.

I'm thinking 2 more chapters? R&R! Much love!
