Saturday, July 16, Vega Household, 4:00 PMRobbie's POV
"No, Robbie! You don't do it like that! You're supposed to use the cloth to clean outside the record!" At this point, Cat is just being a pain in the ass right now, and it doesn't help that we're fighting in front of our friends. Thank God Tori's able to split us up. "Stop it! No couple fights as much as you two do!" Cat just slaps the record on me. "It's not my fault that Robbie's always doing things wrong!" Me? Okay, that's it. I love her and all, but she's being extremely difficult to control right now. "I'm always doing things wrong? It's not my fault that I don't know how to clean a record! They're so old, are you stupid?" I've gotta watch my mouth, but she's running out. I've gotta chase after her. I get into my car and try and find her. No luck. I'm the worst boyfriend ever, I just insult my girl and lose her. I just wanna die. Wait one second, there's sniffles coming from my back seat floor. There she is. "No, Cat. I didn't mean to insult you like that, really." She just gets up, hits me, and starts to yell. "Yeah, you did! You just don't call any girl stupid like that! I'm already so insecure about my intelligence, and then you call me stupid?! Just drive me home, please. I just need some time to rest. I'll see you tomorrow."
I'm the one that's stupid here. She's getting out of the car and doesn't even look at me. I'm such a failure.
Cat's POV
Stupid?! Stupid, huh? I'll show him what stupid is! I'm not gonna break up with him or anything, but he hurt my feelings real bad, and I just need some time to cool down and think. There's just so many things going on right now. My lyrics for Mr. Bogues are due tomorrow, I have to eat lunch with Robbie tomorrow, and my guitar string just snapped. It's just a swell day for me. *ding* Ooh, my phone just went off. It's from Isaiah. What the hell does he want?
Kill yourself.-isaiah
Fuck. Now I have him on my tail? Hehe, tail.
NO.-me
Either you kill yourself or I kill you-isaiah
I have the cops on speed dial.-me
Go ahead, call the cops, unless you want something to happen to your nerd boyfriend-isaiah
Okay, Robbie and I might not be on the best of terms, but I need him to come over here right now, I'm so scared.
Robbie, come over, I think I'm in danger-me
What? K, what's going on-catlap
I'll tell you later-me
Okay, I'll text you when I'm at the door-catlap
Love you-me
Love u more-catlap
He comes storming in through my door. "Cat? Where are you? Are you okay?" I yell back down with a shaky voice. "Yeah! I-I'm in my room!" He comes running upstairs to see me crying into my pillow. "No, kitty, baby, what's wrong?" I'm trying hard to hold back tears as I talk. "Isaiah, h-he told m-me to k-kill myself, and i-if I don't, he's gonna kill you." I felt Robbie clench up his fist, but I stopped him before something happened. "Robbie, please don't do anything dumb." I wrap my arms around him. "Cat, I'm here to protect you. Thar's what I'm here to do, and if I can't do that, then I don't even know what I'm doing with my life." I cry into his sweater. "Don't e-even try t-to call the p-police, he's gonna kill me if I d-do. I'm so scared right now and I don't even know what to do."
Narrator POV
So there Cat was, crying into Robbie because of Isaiah's death threats. "I'll call the cops anyway. He can't kill you if he's behind bars, can he?" Cat shook her head and tried to dry her tears, but they kept on coming. "But again, I'm so scared! What if he sends other people to come and get us?" Robbie laid her down on the bed. "I'm praying that they don't. You have a good life ahead of you, and a shot at becoming the next big thing in music. I won't let them take that away from you." Cat kissed him on the cheek. "I am very sorry about earlier. I love you." Robbie cuddled her and tried to get her to calm down. "So am I. I love you too. I'm here for you. I'll get the cops to send out a search party for Isaiah, and if it gets bad, you can come and live with me."
Cat let out a small grin. "I would love to live with you, but the thing is that it's my parent's house, and they'll be surprised if we leave." Robbie laid down beside her. "Don't worry, I'm gonna tell your mom about everything. She's gonna be understanding, no one wants their daughter to go through something like this. You have so many people that love you, Cat. You've got it all. Talent, looks, humor, I could just go on and on about you. I just wish I looked as good as you, so-" Cat kissed his lips and got on top of him. "Don't you ever say that you don't look good. I think you're kinda hot, especially when you cook for me. That's what I want in a boyfriend. Reach into my bra, there's a little something in there for you." She winked at him, and Robbie reached in between her cleavage. "Red licorice! How did you know that I wanted some?" She shrugged her shoulders and got one of her own. "I told you, I can tell what you're feeling, we're in sync."
Robbie got up and unwrinkled his clothes. "Are you feeling better now?" Cat nodded her head. "Okay, so I'll be at home, and I'll pick you up at around 2:00, alright?" Cat tugged on his sleeves. "No, please don't leave. Can you stay here for the night, just in case Isaiah comes, please?" Robbie took off his sweater and hung it in her closet. "Well, in that case, we have a long night of cuddling ahead of us, don't we?"
Cat tickled his chin. "We sure do, baby."
