Stories for the Cabbie Soul

A/N: Oh gosh, it's been a while! I'm sorry but my computer went all funky on me and now it freezes every time I try to turn it on! I'm using a different computer now…

cutesypie22: Noooo, if the whole human race was wiped, out nobody could read my stories! Hehe, thanks!

So anyway, let's begin the chapter!

Disclaimer: Nope, not yet.

Jade's POV

Ugh, I could vomit. I'm standing in the halls of Hollywood Arts and I see Cat and Robbie walking with their arms linked. I mean, Beck and I do that too, but with Robbie, it just looks weird. Speaking of the idiot, I see he completely ignored my advice and got the ring anyway. Beck waited to get me a promise ring until we dated for six months. These two have been going out for what, almost four? What is he thinking?

"Hey Rob!" I call to him threateningly. I see him glancing in my direction, and then muttering something to Cat. She nods happily and skips off to class. At least, I think she's going to class. Sometimes she goes somewhere totally different and then shows up, like, an hour later.

Anyway, that nerd is now walking ever so slowly towards me. I grow impatient, roll my eyes, and sigh in frustration. "Sometime today Robbie!" I shout menacingly. This time, Robbie starts sprinting at me and stops right before he smashes into my body.

"So, um, yes Jade?" he stutters. I glare at him, then yank his wrist and drag him into the janitor's closet.

"What did I tell you?" I hiss at him. He better have a good answer to this!

"What do you mean?" he asks dumbly. Ugh, wrong answer! I smack him in the head and continue.

"What did I tell you about the ring? Answer correctly this time!" I snarl at his face as I step dangerously close to him. I'm now within scratching distance, and I had just sharpened my nails this morning! So it doesn't look too good for him if he continues to be stupid!

"Oh, you told me not to get it, but-"

"But you didn't listen to me! You continued to be your stupid self and you got her the stupid ring! I told you to WAIT!"

Robbie looks like he's about to wet his pants. "I know! I know! But, you gotta understand! She's just so happy now. Cat loves the ring and she loves me. And I love her too! I think it's a good idea and so does everybody else! Why don't you agree that this is a great thing for me and Cat? I understand that you want me to suffer loneliness, really I do! But I thought Cat was your best friend. Don't you want her to be happy?"

I'm considering his words now. Yes, of course I want Cat to be happy! And yes, she calls me nearly every night to tell me 'Robbie got me this' and 'Robbie said that' and 'Robbie is so sweet, blah blah blah!' GAH! Why? Why does she love him so much? What could he possibly say to her that makes her so happy? I mean, sure it's practically the same thing with me and Beck, but… um… well, I guess there isn't that much of a difference. Gosh, I hate this right now!

"You know what," I start. "Fine. Do whatever you want. But if I hear one thing, ONE THING, from ANYBODY that says you did something to hurt her in ANY WAY possible, you will be answering to ME!"

He gulps and backs up. "I don't want to answer to you." He whimpers. Good. He's scared.

"Then promise me this," I say. "You better make Cat feel like the happiest girl in the world and you better make sure she's always happy. And if she's ever upset over anything, and it better not be your fault for that, comfort her. I know Cat more than anybody else and when she's sad, which is very rare but it still happens, you can't help but feel sad too. And you know feeling sad is not an exciting thing! So do you promise?"

He looks shocked for a moment, and then nods his head. Oh no, that's not good enough.

"Say it!" I bark at him. His eyes widen at the roughness of my voice.

"I promise! I promise!"

"You promise what?"

He clears his throat and looks me straight in the eyes. "I promise I will take care of Cat. No matter what. I promise I won't abandon her for anyone or anything."

Wow, he said that better than I did. I hate that! What is he doing? He's holding his pinky out to me.

"Pinky promise." He says reassuringly.

I roll my eyes at his stupidity, but I can't help but chuckle. Cat must be rubbing off on him, huh? I lock my pinky with his and smile. "Alright, pinky promise."

Robbie nods his head, obviously satisfied. Then, he jerks the door open and runs out. I shake my head and walk out of the door behind him.

"Better stay true to your word Robbie Shapiro." I say under my breath. Hmm, now where is Beck?

A/N: My goodness, I hate writing short chapters! But I can't help it! But anyway, don't you just love Cat and Jade friendship? Because I do! Also, I really wanted to see how a Robbie/Jade friendship type scene would look like. Not too bad. Thanks for reading, I'll try to update soon!
