The song "Show Me Love" belongs to t.A.T.u., not me. I do not own it and I am not using it to make a profit. Thank you.

Jade looked around wildly. Where was she? Why did everything look different? She wasn't at home. This wasn't hers and Soda's room. And the man lying next to her wasn't Soda...
//This was an accident
Not the kind where sirens sound
Never even noticed
We're suddenly crumbling//
Who the man was, she had no clue. Carefully, she wrapped the sheet around herself and rubbed her throbbing head. What had happened last night? She'd went to a club with Angel, Dallas, and Tim. Curly had stopped by once or twice, but left with some blond chick. They--with the exception of Angel who had to be the designated driver--had gotten drunk and went home. Right? No, that wasn't right. Jade had stayed behind... She'd met a guy named Leo. She'd went home with him. She'd spent the night...
Quickly, she pulled on her clothes and left the house. When she got home, Soda was sitting on the couch, staring blankly at the television, but not really seeing it. He knew. Dear God, he knew what had happened last night. He only had one question.
"Why, Jade," he asked, looking as if he might cry.
//Tell me how you've never felt
Delicate or innocent
Do you still have doubts that
Us having faith makes any sense//
"I--I didn't mean to," she sobbed.
"Didn't mean to," Soda said incrediously. "How can you not mean to cheat on me? It can't be on accident, Jade. You weren't raped!"
"Soda, you don't know what my life has been like," Jade yelled, tears running like the rain falls. "I've never in my life felt like a normal girl. I've never felt delicate or innocent! Angel and Heaven can't understand because they had normal lives at one time! They just don't know how it is to grow up like I did."
"That's not a reason, Jade."
"Soda, don't do this! Please, don't do this to me. It was an accident! That's it! It didn't mean anything to me! I promise!"
"I'm not doing anything to you, Jade. You're doing it to yourself."
"Soda, don't leave me!"
"It's too late," Soda said. He had his bags packed and in the car already. With one final glance at Jade, he picked up his car keys and left. He didn't even say good-bye.
//Staring at your photograph
Everything now in the past
Never felt so lonely I
Wish that you could show me love//
Jade walked through the hallway, looking at the happy pictures of her and Soda. Then she came to her favorite one. It was the one someone took at their wedding. Both Soda and Jade were laughing. Soda had a smear of cake frosting on his face and Jade had some on her nose. All of that was in the past now. None of it would ever happen again.
She picked up picture and threw it across the room, where it hit a wall, and watched in angry satisfaction as it shattered and broke. Why could no one ever show her love?
//Show me love, show me love, show me love
show me love, show me love
'Til you open the door//
Soda had got most of his stuff, but he had left some things behind. Jade threw it all into a trashcan in the bathroom and set it on fire. Once it had burned, she poured a few cups of water on it to douse the flames.
//Show me love, show me love, show me love
show me love, show me love
'Til I'm up off the floor//
Looking into the mirror, Jade was disgusted with what she saw. Why did everything have to turn upside down just when her life got some happiness in it? This always happened. She was doomed to be a failure in her life forever.
//Show me love, show me love, show me love
show me love, show me love
'Til it's inside my pores//
She scrubbed off her makeup gently with a warm rag. God be damned if she was going anywhere again. Soda was her life and she couldn't go on without him. She was just an empty shell.
//Show me love, show me love, show me love,
show me love, show me love
'Til I'm screaming for more//
Carefully, she put on some fresh eyeliner and mascara. Why should she let Soda's absence ruin her life? He'd left her, not the other way around. She had the right to live like she wanted.
//Random acts of mindlessness
Commonplace occurences
Chances and surprises
Another state of consciousness//
Jade packed her bags absent-mindedly. It was if all of this was happening in a dream. Like she was in a whole other state of consciousness. She had friends in New York that she could stay with. They wouldn't let her down. They wouldn't leave her.
//Tell me noting ever counts
Lashing out or breaking down
Still somebody loses 'cause
There's no way to turn around//
After saying good-bye to Angel and some of the other gang members, Jade started her car and began the drive to New York. Halfway there, she had a change of heart and turned around, hellbent on talking things over with Soda. She would change. Soda would come back to her. Things would be happy again.
//Tell me how youve never felt
Delicate or innocent
Do you still have doubts that
Us having faith makes any sense//
Soda jumped into Darry's ford and sped down the highway. He was going to go all the way to New York and talk to Jade. He was such a fool to believe that she did those things on purpose. Even though she did some outrageous things, she would never do that. He would apologize to her about the whole incident. Things would be all right between them with three little words. I love you...
//You play games, I play tricks
Girls and girls, but you're the one
Like a game of pick-up sticks
Played be fucking lunatics//
That night, both Soda and Jade died before they could talk to one another. Soda was hit by a huge eighteen wheeler when the driver ran off the road and Jade's car went out of control when the truck turned over. She hit a streetlamp and busted her head on the steering wheel. They went to the same hospital, their rooms were right next to one another, but neither of them knew. They died in the same wreck, each asking their nurse to give the other the same message: "Show me love".

Give me all that I want//
