Chapter Fifty-Three
Beautiful Disaster
…
About 20 minutes later, Beck pulled into Cat's driveway, which wasn't as messed up as some of the other houses, and the worried redhead jumped out of the car as quick as she could, over Andre, who was in the passenger seat. "Sleepy!" She called out as she grabbed her house keys and opened the door, rushing in and not even stopping to take a breath while she screamed Sleepy's name over and over.
Beck, Andre, Tori, Jade, and Robbie all exited Beck's car and followed Cat inside, since she had left the door wide open. They saw her bedroom light on and knew she was in there with the pup. "I hope Sleepy is okay." Robbie said as they followed Beck into the kitchen.
Beck took a look around. "Her house isn't as bad as we thought it'd be." He jumped over a few broken plates on the ground. "That's-"
Suddenly, the house and earth started shaking again. "Another one?" Robbie asked as he ducked under the island's counter, along with Jade and Tori.
"Aftershock!" Andre yelled out.
"AHH! BECK!"
Beck's heart almost stopped at the cry of his girlfriend, who was upstairs alone. He jumped across the broken glass again, trying to keep his balance through the shaking, but before he could leave the kitchen, Andre grabbed him and made him stay with him in the doorway. "Let go! I have to get to her!" Beck snapped at his best friend, who was holding him back.
Andre growled to keep a grip on Beck. "Stop fighting me! You're safe right here in the doorway!"
"But Cat doesn't know what to do in an earthquake!" Beck continued to try and get out of Andre's hold, but Andre wasn't budging. "CAT! GET IN THE DOORWAY! UNDER YOUR BED! SOMEWHERE! CAT? CAT!" Beck kept yelling to her, but he was receiving no answer. "Oh my god, let me go, Andre! She's hurt! She's not answering me! She's hurt! I can't live without her! Please!"
CRASH
Some crashing was heard upstairs and Beck now lost it. "NO! NO! CAT! NO!"
Andre was worried about his favorite redhead too, but didn't let go. "Beck, you won't be helping her if you're hurt! Stay here!"
Beck was tearing up, crying, as he continued to fight back. He didn't know what was happening to the love of his life, but he had a terrifying feeling in his soul that she wasn't safe. His heart was breaking for Cat. He could feel Cat's emotions and Cat wasn't safe. Why was this happening to them? Why did the world curse them so? He was in such a strong love with Cat, so why was the world torturing them like this? He'd never understand.
Thankfully, for Beck's sanity, the shaking stopped again.
Andre released Beck, who bolted to the staircase and up the stairs. "CAT! CAT!" He shouted desperately as he practically flew into her room. Her room was a mess. Her curtains were sideways or on the ground, her full length mirror was face down on the ground, with shards sticking out next to it, one of the hinges for her closet door was off, so it was slanted. All of Cat's photos and shelves were now on the floor. Her ceiling light and fan had fallen down and crashed onto the carpet. Beck hardly recognized the bedroom. What terrified him more, though, was the ultimate question: where was Cat? "Cat? Cat, baby, talk to me! Where are you?" He asked frantically as he looked under her bed, but she wasn't there. "CAT!"
"Beck?" He vaguely heard her muffled voice.
He heard it coming from the closet, so he forced the door open and straightened it up and saw that everything in Cat's closet was on the ground, which created a huge pile of clothes, shoes, and shelves. It brought pure terror into Beck's veins. "CAT?"
"Get me out." Her voice came from under the pile. Beck immediately started grabbing random things on the pile and threw them out. Soon, he felt movement and helped her get air when she popped out. He saw a nasty bruise on her forehead, but she gave him a soft smile. "Sleepy's safe." She whispered. He helped her out and saw the Yorkie puppy in her arms, sleeping. "Thank goodness." Cat looked up at Beck. "Are you alright?"
Beck didn't do anything except wrap his arms around her body, sobbing into her hair. "Please, stop doing this to me!" He screamed, but it was muffled by her hair and sweater. "Stop scaring me like this! I can't take anymore!"
Cat smiled gently. "I can't control this, you know?"
Beck couldn't answer back as he continued to cry into her hair. "Oh, god, I was so worried that you…" His voice cracked.
Cat kissed his cheek as Sleepy yawned in her arms. "We're okay, Beck. Everyone is okay." And then she groaned. "Ow…"
"What's wrong?" Beck asked hastily as he pulled back to look at her.
Cat kept her arm around Sleepy and the other went to the bruise on her forehead. "My head is throbbing."
"Here we go, babygirl." Beck hoisted her into his arms as he carried her down the stairs. "I'm not taking any chances." He told her when she was about to question his actions.
"But the hospital will be busy." Cat mumbled, laying her head on his shoulder as he was going into the kitchen to tell the others.
Beck shook his head. "Cat, you should get checked out by a doctor."
"My mom's a doctor." Tori said as stopped cleaning up the floor. "Let's head to my house. My mom is home with my sister."
"Aw, I hate your sister." Jade said as she opened the front door for Beck.
"Yeah, well, not everyone loves you too." Tori smirked.
Jade gritted her teeth together. "Oh."
…
"Hmm…" Mrs. Vega put an ice pack on Cat's head as she made the redhead lay down. "You'll be alright. It's a nasty bump on the head." She turned to Beck, who was sitting on the coffee table next to Cat, holding her hand. "It's good you brought her. The pill I had her take helped it take the swelling down so it wouldn't cause inner bleeding." Mrs. Vega stood up and patted Beck's head a few times. "Good boyfriend you are." With that, she smiled to Cat. "I'll leave you two alone for a moment." And with that, Tori's mom walked back upstairs towards Tori's room where the others were.
Cat smiled to Beck. "See? I'm fine."
"Ah, but she said I was still right for bringing you." Beck grinned. "So I win."
Cat sighed. "I'm sorry I worried you again. I'm such a horrible person."
"No, you're not." Beck went to his knees next to her, running one hand through her hair softly and the other holding her hand. "You're right. You can't control what happens. It's…just…" He swallowed. "Cat, I love you. I plan on marrying you one day. The thought of not being with you suddenly terrifies me. It's like my whole world would fall apart. For the past 2 years, you've always been there for me and never have let me down…not once. I've come so close to losing you a couple times too many…I can't do it." He kissed her hand. "I never want to let you go."
Cat smiled. "Ditto. You and your stunts double career. It's not easy for me either, Beck. Believe it or not, I'm protective of you too. I can't do too much to prove it because I'm tiny and weak, but if I could, I would. I love you so much. I want to marry you as well, hence why I'm wearing this." She lifted up her left hand to her ring finger that held a petite ring that always made Beck smile. "I'm promised to you. I'll never let you down, just how you've never let me down and you never will. I don't want to let you go either."
Beck leaned forward and kissed her lips softly.
