ENDING -B-

(PART TWO)

Kevin and Lucia took Jade to their house so she would spend her pregnancy there, they hired a nurse to attend her and Lucia with anything they needed and they took care of Jade for the six months of her pregnancy.

"Are you ready to be a mom?" Lucia asked, she had already had her baby and was holding it while she and Jade drank a cup of tea.

"No, I have no idea what I'm going to do; I never planned on being a mom at eighteen and under these circumstances" Jade responded sincerely.

"Jade, are you sure you don't feel any kind of ill will or hatred towards the baby?" Lucia asked "You're only eighteen and your pregnancy was the result of the abuse you suffered, believe me, it'd be perfectly understandable and nobody could judge you for it and if that's the case, you should consider giving her to another family, there are lots of couples who would love to be parents" she suggested but Jade shook her head.

"No, no...What you say is true, I didn't want to become a mom yet and I still have nightmares remembering those months in the club, they were horrible but I don't blame my baby for it, she is not guilty, she deserves to live and I want her with me, if i didn't i would have let them kill her or ask the doctor to practice an abortion on me but i didn't because i love her, at first i just didn't want them to kill my baby and like you said, i was thinking about giving her up for adoption but after all these months, after feeling her little heart beating, after talking and singing to her and feeling her moving inside me, after seeing her on that screen, i just.. i can't imagine giving her to someone else, i'm her mother, do you know what that means? I'm her mother, it's my responsibility to be there for her, it still feels weird to say i'm somebody's mom but it's the truth and i'm not upset about it, i wish she had come to my life differently, at another time, i wish Beck were her father but he is not and that doesn't mean i don't love her, she is mine, she is the only thing in the entire world that is truly and completely mine" Jade said, she never thought she could feel that much love for the product of the nightmare she'd lived, she loved her baby so much and was dying to finally see her and hold her in her arms, she loved talking and singing to her, feeling her kicks inside her body and knowing she was there, it was a feeling she couldn't explain or even understand but it was there.

"Aw that's so sweet, I'm glad you feel that way, she will have a great mommy" Lucia commented and Jade smiled at her.

"Hi honey, hi Jade, how's my baby?" Kevin asked as he entered the living room.

"He is sleeping" Lucia said.

"Jade, I got news for you; the cop in charge of your case told me that they finally reunited enough evidence to catch Mr. Lang without mentioning your testimony, they're gonna arrest him" Kevin informed and Jade smiled.

"Really? That's great" Jade exclaimed happily but then her smile dropped and she looked down scared.

"What? What's happening?" Kevin asked.

"Ah!" Jade said in pain and started breathing heavily.

"Oh my god, it's time, it's time" Lucia informed when she saw Jade's pants were wet and he immediately ran to get the car keys.

"Oh my god, it hurts so much" Jade exclaimed.

"It's okay, don't freak out... breathe, Jade, breathe like we practiced, remember?" Lucia said and Jade nodded while trying to breathe. "Kevin, hurry up" She shouted and he ran back into the room. "Let's go now"

Kevin carried Jade to the car and he and Lucia drove her to the hospital "Everything is going to be okay, don't forget to breathe!" Lucia shouted as the doctor and the nurses took Jade into the room.

L.A.

"I can't believe it's been six months since Jade...passed" Tori said sadly, she and the rest of the gang were in her house as usual. "It feels so strange, like in her funeral..."

"Her funeral was the worst, everyone's speeches were heartbreaking" Andre commented sadly. They had been in Jade's funeral a few months back and it had been a horrible day, everyone said a few words to honor Jade's memory and then went home with a broken heart, especially Beck, he spent weeks crying in his RV, he couldn't stop thinking about Jade and all the moments he had shared with her, he only wanted to die.

"And you wanted to make us go through that again" Tori said slightly upset to Beck and he looked down, he had actually tried to commit suicide by taking an entire bottle of pills but his parents had found him in time and he survived but he still couldn't see a future without Jade, nothing made sense to him anymore.

"Yes, Beck, what the hell were you thinking?" Robbie questioned.

"Jade, I was thinking of Jade..." Beck simply answered. "I was in my RV looking at pictures of her, of us and remembering when she was here, i remembered us watching movies together, i remembered her eyes looking into mine, the smell of her hair, the taste of her lips, the sound of her voice, her laugh, her smile" He said with a smile on his face. "...and then i remembered the day they kidnapped us, i remembered seeing them as they dragged her away, i remembered seeing those horrible videos, i remembered her screams, her panic, her pain, her agony, her tears and the fear in her eyes when i saw her again, i remembered seeing her dead body on the floor in that picture and then i saw the pills, i simply took them and laid down on my bed holding my "J" necklace waiting to see her again and you know what? I don't regret it, i wish my parents hadn't been home that day" Beck affirmed and they all looked down sadly, they couldn't say anything to tell him wrong.

"Nothing will ever be the same without Jade, Beck, but i'm sure she wouldn't want you to die" Cat said.

"Cat's right, Beck, she's gone now but she'll always be watching us from heaven" Tori commented.

"Or hell" Rex said and they all turned to Robbie clearly upset.

"Rex!" He said annoyed and Tori rolled her eyes.

"She would be turning nineteen in two months" Beck commented sadly. "Her nineteenth birthday, she couldn't even live nineteen years, god, why do things like this even happen?"

"There is no answer to that question, Beck, everyone is born with their destiny written and well, some people's destinies are just sad, Jade was one of those people" Andre responded and Beck sighed sadly.

Weeks after that everyone reunited at the West's house to have a little tribute in Jade's honor because it was her birthday, only Jade's parents, friends and their parents were invited because only they had experienced the whole process and its horrible ending.

"Thank you for coming, we are here today because today is my daughter's nineteenth birthday and I know that wherever she is, she is fine now and she doesn't have to deal with anymore pain" Mr. West said. "However, that does not mean that I don't miss her every single day of my life and god knows that there isn't a day where I don't regret not being the father she deserved" He affirmed with tears streaming down his face.

"I want you to know that we are deeply sorry that your daughter was the only one who didn't make it back, she was a beautiful young woman that didn't deserve any of the things that happened to her" Beck's mother commented and Alicia and Mr. West nodded at her with a sad smile on their faces.

"I don't want you to remember Jade like in those pictures and in those videos, I want you to remember Jade like the person she was, I'm sure she wouldn't like to be remembered with pity" Alicia commented "So I thought that we should watch some videos of her from when she was little and when she was at school performing, that's how she would like to be remembered"

Jade had her baby in Ukraine and waited until the police had arrested Mr. Lang, they were supposed to catch him before but he managed to escape so she didn't feel safe traveling, after two months Mr. Lang was finally shot down and killed so Jade felt free, she only wanted to go back home and see her parents, her friends and especially Beck, she was dying to see him again.

Kevin and Lucia accompanied her so she wouldn't travel alone and as soon as the plane landed, they drove to Jade's house. "You know what's funny? Today is my birthday" Jade said as they walked toward the house. "It'll be a nice surprise, don't you think?" she asked and kissed her little baby's hand.

"Absolutely" Lucia said gladly. "You have a nice house, looks like there are people inside..."

"I hope my mom's here, I haven't seen her in forever but i guess she went back to San Diego" Jade said.

"Do you want us to come in with you?" Kevin questioned.

"Yes but not yet, could you wait out here with Gracie? I'll come for you in a few minutes" Jade responded as she put her baby girl in Kevin's arms, he nodded and she walked into the house quietly.

Jade looked around and smiled happily, she couldn't believe she was finally back in home and that the nightmare was over. She heard noises coming from the living room and she entered to see what was going on, when she stepped inside she saw all her friends, her parents and her friends' parents staring at the screen so she did too and there was a video of her from when she was about eleven years old and she was singing.

Alicia couldn't stop crying while watching it and the same happened with Mr. West, they were smiling but crying their eyes out while little Jade sang and smiled on screen, Jade's friends were smiling because she looked adorable and Beck was smiling too but he had lots of tears running down his face.

Jade wanted to speak but she froze for a moment, she was just watching the videos of her they were playing and smiling because it brought back so many good memories.

"She was adorable" Cat's mother said and then the next video played, it was Jade's profile video for The Slap, she had recorded it when she was sixteen and she was just beautiful in it.

"If you are a girl, stay away from Beck" Beck simply looked down with a huge sad smile on his face and the rest of them chuckled a little, Jade was hilarious even though she was being completely serious and that was her actual personality. "Do you see this piercing here and this one here? I got both of them about forty five minutes after my mother told me I wasn't allowed to get my face pierced, sorry mom" Jade looked down smiling because she still thought it was funny and she didn't regret doing it.

Alicia couldn't help but laugh a little, she remembered that and how angry she had been at Jade for piercing her face without permission but now she just found it funny, she loved Jade's rebellious self and all the aspects of her personality. "I'm sixteen, i'm smart, i'm deep and i am...talened" When the video ended and everyone was smiling because that's how Jade was, she was sarcastic, funny, beautiful and full of life.

"I love what she said about the house with the electrified fence" Tori's mother commented with a little laugh.

"Jade was...special" Tori added and laughed a little too, it was nice to remember her like that and not as a victim. They were so busy talking about Jade that nobody noticed she was standing right behind them

"Play the next video" Cat demanded and Alicia pressed play, Jade stared at the screen to see what other video they had chosen and then she saw herself walking on stage about to sing You don't know me.

"That's the song she wrote for you, isn't it?" Tori asked Beck and he nodded while watching her singing it again.

"It's the day we got back together" Beck commented smiling with tears in his eyes.

"She was so talented..." Mr. West commented, Jade finished singing the song and then Beck walked on stage, they had recorded that part too.

I've missed you "I still miss you, I always will" Beck said to the screen.

"So what are you gonna do about it?" Jade questioned from behind.

Beck immediately turned around to see Jade standing there, everyone gasped and stepped back in shock, nobody could believe their eyes, it was her and she looked fine.

"Oh my god" Alicia exclaimed and her legs weakened but Mr. West and Mr. Vega didn't let her fall.

"Be gone Jade's ghost, go to the light" Cat said innocently and Jade chuckled, Cat hadn't changed at all, she was still innocent, loving and adorable.

"I'm not dead, Cat" Jade informed smiling at her and Cat looked at her confused just like everyone else.

"Jade? Is it really you?" Tori questioned surprised and Jade nodded. Alicia reunited the strength to walk toward Jade but she couldn't manage to touch her, she was trembling and she just couldn't believe her daughter was standing right in front of her. It took her about a minute but she finally managed to start stroking her face slowly.

"Jade, Jade...oh my god, Jade!" Alicia exclaimed and wrapped her arms around Jade's body, she immediately hugged her mother back, it felt so good to be with her after such a long time. "I can't believe it, thank you, god, thank you" Alicia couldn't stop crying of happiness, everything seemed so unrealistic that it was hard for her to assimilate it.

After about three minutes of hugging her daughter Alicia finally broke the hug so she could look at Jade. "Jade, honey!" Mr. West exclaimed and embraced his daughter too, he and everyone else had had time to assimilate the news during the time Alicia and Jade were hugging, it was still shocking but not as much anymore. "I'm so sorry for not being there for you, I love you more than you'll ever know" He said sincerely and kissed the top of her head.

"Jade!" Cat exclaimed happily and hugged her and so did the rest of her friends but Beck was just so shocked that he couldn't give credit to what he was seeing, he couldn't cope.

After hugging everyone Jade walked towards Beck and simply stood in front of him but he was just staring at her emotionless. "Beck, aren't you happy to see me alive?" Jade questioned, she couldn't understand Beck's reaction and she was afraid that maybe he rejected her now because he had finally understood that she had been a prostitute.

After a few seconds Beck simply wrapped his arms around her and embraced her as tightly as he could, he needed to feel her to be sure that he wasn't dreaming. "I love you, god, I love you so much" He said as he cried his eyes out and kissed her forehead like it was the last kiss he was ever gonna give her.

"I love you too" Jade said sincerely.

"God, i thought i'd lost you, i just... i can't believe you are here" He responded and hugged her again.

"But Jade, honey, what happened?" Alicia asked when she was more calmed.

"That man sent us a picture of your body, we heard when they sliced your throat and then shot you" Mr. West commented and Jade shook her head.

"No, that didn't happen" Jade informed. "I just remember I was talking to you on the phone and then they hit me in the back of the head and everything turned black, when I woke up I was still there and he told me that i was officially dead, he said that i still had to work for him for a long time before i had permission to die but you needed to believe otherwise so you wouldn't try to find me again" She explained.

"And his plan worked" Andre commented and she nodded.

"Yes, I was supposed to travel to Turkey with another name eight months ago" Jade informed.

"You were supposed to? What happened?"

Yeah, i personally love the part when they realize she is there :')
