Okaay so a little longer than planned but I haven't been home. I PASSED MY EXAMS! I am so happy. My goodness I feel so relieved and my mom thought it would be nice to go and see some relatives in France. I couldn't complain of course. Because I love France. Anyway I'm back now. And I hope you enjoy this chapter. And hellooooo: 101 REVIEWS? You guys rock. You guys are the best. So I hope my writing shows that to you. Here is the latest chapter of Showtime!
Jade POV:
"No. You found me. You always do."
Beck looks me in the eyes and gives me a small smile before he says:
"And I always will."
I blush a little at this and look at my shoes. After a while I stare back up and see that Beck is still staring at me. All I can do at the moment is stare back into his deep brown eyes. I feel his grip around my waist tighten and pulling me closer to his chest. I do nothing to stop it. I stand a little on my toes so I'm exactly at his eyelevel. We are still gazing at each other while our faces are getting closer and closer. Our noses are touching and I can feel his hot breath on my lips. Our lips are almost touching when all of a sudden I hear:
"Jade? Jade Where are you?"
Beck and I break apart just in time to see Cat and Tori come around the corner. Beck has his hands in his pockets and is just staring at the ground.
"There you are. Me and Cat have been looking for you. Oh….Hi Beck."
I look up to see both Cat and Tori look at Beck with a surprised look. I am still a little flustered so all I do I nod and smile at them. When I finally find my voice I say:
"Oh hey guys. Sorry I kept you waiting. I was looking for Beck and then I found him. We were just going somewhere private."
Cat crosses her arms and gives Beck and smiles at me while saying:
"Somewhere private? Why would you do that?"
"Cat, I just want to talk to Beck in private that's it. So if you two will excuse us we are going. I will see you guys at lunch."
I grab Beck's hand and pull him with me towards the exit.
"Jade where are we going? We are going to miss class."
I stop and Beck bumps into me. I turn around and say with a wink:
"Just trust me."
He just laughs and squeezes my hand.
"The beach? Really Jade?"
"What? You know I like the beach."
"Like? I thought you didn't hate it."
"Isn't it all the same?"
He laughs at this and I immediately realize how much I miss that sound. Not that I didn't know that already. It has just been a while since I last heard that laugh. I pull him towards a hill and sit on top of it. He sits down next to me and we just sit there and stare out onto the sea.
"So? What did you want to talk about?"
"I don't know."
"You don't know?"
"No, I mean I know what I want to say I just don't know how to say it."
"Well why don't you start by saying what's on your mind right now."
"Uhhmm let me think."
"Look Jade you don't have to filter anything. I deserve everything you throw at me. I know I've been a jerk so you can say whatever you feel like saying.."
I decide to interrupt his stupid rant.
"I love you."
"I can take every blow and…Wait, what?"
"I said: I love you."
"You love me?"
"What? Am I talking Chinese?"
"No, I just didn't see that coming."
"And why is that?"
"I mean, how can you still be so sure that you love me? After everything that I've done. You were right the other day. I broke almost all my promises. I promised to protect you and to always try and make you happy. I promised you that I would always be there for you. And I broke those promises. All because we fought a little too much. You have no idea how much I regret not opening the door. I lost you, the best thing in my life, because of something we could have easily worked on. That is my biggest regret. Believe me when I say that if I could I would go back in time to open that door."
I feel my eyes glaze over and I don't even attempt to blink the tears away.
"I wouldn't."
"You wouldn't? Why?"
"Because then we never would've seen how life is without each other. And maybe that is exactly what we needed. Maybe we needed time apart to see if we really do belong together. To see if our love conquers all. And it did. We saw how life would be if we don't have each other and I must say that it sucks. I love you too much to never talk to you again and I love you too much to just be friends."
"I love you too Jade. I never stopped. Every day without you was like torture. Do you know how many times I just wanted to run to you, to kiss you or hug you or just simply touch you. I know it sounds cheesy and all but you really are like my drug. I can't live without you."
He raises his hand and cups my cheeks. He wipes the tears away from my cheek with his thumb. I lean into his hand.
"Beck, we can't go exactly back to where we left off. We have to work our way up to it. You know. Do it all over again. Maybe this time we'll do it even better. Cause we learned from our mistakes and both you and I have changed."
He nods his head and comes closer. He kisses my forehead and lowers his head to rest his forehead against mine. I feel his hot breath on my skin when he says:
"How about you and I go on a date. It'll be like our second first date."
"I would love that."
"So then what?"
"So then nothing. He asked me out on a date and I said yes. Then we came back here."
"Who asked you out on a date?"
Tori puts down her lunch on the table and sits next to Cat. Before I can answer, Cat does.
"She and Beck talked. And he asked her out on a date and she accepted."
"Oeh where are you going?"
"We don't know that yet."
Tori looks at me funny and then continues:
"He asked you out on a date and you guys don't know where said date is going to take place?"
"Who asked who out?"
We turn around and see Andre and Robbie behind us. Robbie kisses Cat on her cheek then sits next to her. Andre goes to sit next to Tori. They look at each other and then look away shyly. Men they really need a push. Tori answers the question this time.
"Beck asked Jade out. She accepted. And now we need a location for their first date as a non-couple."
Andre looks around and suddenly says:
"How about that new place in my street? I heard it's a really nice place. Maybe we can all go together?"
I look up and say:
"That's actually really nice."
"What is really nice?"
And that is our final member. Beck puts his bag on the ground and takes the seat next to me. I look at him and say:
"Well there is this new place close to Andre and we all wanted to go. Care to join?"
"Are you going?"
"Yes I am?"
"Good. Count me in."
After our little conversation Tori starts telling a story about Trina but I don't pay attention. All I pay attention to is Becks hand squeezing mine underneath the table.
A/N: Well I think we all know what is going to happen next? This is not my final chapter. If it was I would have announced it a long time ago. I can make this story as long as I want it to. But I don't want it to lose quality. So I'm just going to keep writing until you guys tell me to stop. I have enough ideas to keep writing. And again: If you guys have any ideas, or suggestions don't hesitate to tell me. And I will do my best to make them part of the story.
PLEASE REVIEW!
