"The Opposite Date"
Beck sat next to Tori, watching her pretty hair and thin body. No one could deny, Tori is beautiful. She was the model type of beautiful. People envied her everywhere she went. She was no "average" girl. And sure, Tori had talent. A good amount of talent. He was proud to call her his girlfriend... but Beck had never ever been sexually attracted to Tori. She wasn't appealing that way. Not to him.
A date didn't sound bad Saturday night... that is if it was him and Jade at his RV eating popcorn and throwing shit at each other, and waking up in the morning with her body pressed against his. He knew that wasn't getting that from Tori. For god sake, he could barely get the girl to kiss him!
"Those slingshot kids!" Beck snapped out of his mindless fantasy of Jade, and looked over to wear two boys took off running. Why did they have to be so annoying?
A long time ago, about two years, Jade had made those boys hate the Hollywood Arts students. She had enough guts to threaten them both with scissors and break there slingshots into two pieces.
"Beck, I don't wanna date."
Ugh, here came Tori's winning. Beck mentally groaned then turned back to face misses perfect cheekbones.
"How about an opposite date?"
He literally regretted it. An opposite date was the first thing him and Jade had ever done. Jade hated cliché dates where they go to a movie and then to sushi and it's all mushy mushy. Beck agreed, and took her to an old bus.
I need to get over Jade, Beck told himself. Maybe this is the perfect way!
He would just have to accept the fact he has lost Jade.

Cat could not get any dumber at this point. She always had the dumbest questions to ask Jade, and she always did it at Jade's locker. Didn't she realize Jade had enough things in her locker to KILL Cat?
"A DATE?"
Jade's heart felt like it had dropped out of her chest on to the ground. Her mouth hung open, her whole face went pale... it was like someone stabbed her in the chest.
"Then we're going to spy," Jade said. She didn't wanna be that weird and creepy, but, if that's what it took... Little did she know that Beck was hoping she would spy.

Beck found Tori in sweats, and even though she was supposed to "not be trying", Beck could tell she had. She had makeup covering every blemish; she smelled sweet and fresh like she had just showered. He found herself loving the rose smell she had covered herself in. Weird, He thought. This isn't going bad at all. I might actually like Tori.
Every time Beck looked at Tori throughout the night though, a small part of him wished it was Jade. Something about Tori. Tori made Beck feel responsible, romantic, sensible, and respected. She would be a great girlfriend. But Jade... she was wild, crazy, spontaneous, and passionate. Oh yes, very passionate.
At the same time, Jade couldn't keep her mind off of Beck. The way he treated everything was so different then how he treated her... AND IT BOTHERED HER.

"She kind of walked out on me."
"That doesn't mean she still doesn't kind of have feelings for you."
The feelings of that night came rushing back. The door. The counting. Jade leaving. Trina jumping on him. The anger. The hate. The sadness. He wanted to stab this man. This was not okay... they we're talking about Jade! On his not-date with Tori! He didn't wanna think of her anymore, he had already done that enough!
"I bet she does."
"I think we're ignoring the obvious question. Do you two have feelings for each other?"
Beck stopped, while Tori awkwardly avoided the question.
"So why did you let Jade go?"
"yeah, why'd you let her go?"
"I... I didn't let her go. You know what; I really don't wanna talk about this here."
He let her go. Time to face reality. Beck had been telling himself for a while that Jade had left him... but was it really the other way around? He had to shake all this talk about Jade. He hated talking about Jade!'
"He's afraid to face his feelings."
"No, Okay! Look, I will always love Jade as, as a friend. But as a girlfriend, She'd always freak out over every little thing."
"Sometimes girls do that, because we get scared inside."
"and we need a man to make us feel safe."
Beck watched Tori flip. Jade was scared. She was scared of lots of things, she just only showed him. She was stronger on the outside then she was on the inside. But Beck knew it was true, if Tori wasn't so scared of Jade, she'd personally try to keep him all to herself.
"So then you told Jade you were hanging out with him tonight?"
"Well... No," Tori admitted, ashamed.
"uhuh."
"Interesting."
Jade's face fell. Beck, sitting side by side with Tori. He jumped up, but Jade knew she couldn't do anything. They weren't cheating. She and Beck broke up. She knew he had feelings for Tori, and you just can't change someone's feelings.
"How are you going to explain you're on a date with her ex-boyfriend?"
Jades face fell. It felt like someone had stabbed Beck in the heart. She looked so innocent with that expression on her face.
"Hey Beck which one of them do you think is prettier?"
Jade, he thought. But he was so not saying it out loud.
Jades smile made his face light up. He wanted that. SO BAD.

So what if he was "afraid of facing his feelings?"
That was his choice.
Right?
HE NEEDED JADE. He grabbed his phone. He was home alone... now who would help him? Not Cat. Not Tori. NOT Trina. Maybe Andre? He grabbed the phone and dialed Andre. Oh well, no answer. Guess that would have to wait for a later date.
Meanwhile...
"It's ringing! My pear phone!" Andre told Robbie.
"Where is it?" Robbie asked with what little strength he had left.
"In my pocket... oh man, I got to get it! We can ask for help!"
"They'll probably think were insane, first."
"JUST HELP ME GET THE PHONE."
They wiggled around and shifted in their clothes.
"Dude," Robbie noted. "It stopped ringing."
"Shit."
To Be Continued.
