A/n: I really hope you guys are enjoying the story. I have a few ideas for the future. :) And I can't wait!

BECK

I waited a while before I tried to get in touch with Tori. I gave her time to think. But when it started getting dark outside I couldn't take it anymore. I was worried, but instead of going to her house, I just texted her.

'Tor?'

I waited for an answer and just when I thought she wasn't going to answer.

'Yea?'

'I'm sorry. I didn't tell Jade any of that. She fed you a bunch of lies. Please, believe me.'

'I don't know what to believe anymore.'

'Give me a chance to show you?'

'How?'

'I'll make us public. Exclusive. If that's what you want I mean.'

'I'd love to, but we'll see what happens.'

'I'm sorry that I have caused you so much trouble.'

I waited and waited for about an hour and she didn't respond. I guess I just had to show her. I couldn't wait for morning to come. So I cleaned up a little and went straight to bed, and as tired as the night before had made me I fell straight to sleep.

TORI

The alarm clock next to my bed woke me up with its buzzing. Gah! I had hardly slept at all the night before, but I couldn't miss another day of school. I got out of bed and looked in the mirror. My hair was an absolute mess; looked like a ponytail day to me. I pulled my waves into a bunch at the middle of the back of my head, and got dressed. I just wanted this day to be over; the next day was Friday, and my parents were coming home.

I sat on my front porch steps waiting for Andre. "Hey girl!"

"You look happy today," I joked as I got into the car with him.

"I have a date tomorrow!" I smiled.

He laughed and turned the music up. He sang all the way to school while I watched the town move by outside my window. When we arrived to school Beck's car was already there. He was really early. He usually didn't get here until the bell rang.

I got out of the car with my bag slung over my chest. I didn't eat breakfast and I was headed for the food court. "How 'bout some fro-yo, pretty?" Beck had come from nowhere and had thrown his arm around my shoulder. I smiled. He had been serious the night before. I suddenly looked forward to the rest of the day.

"Yes!" I was so hungry. We walked together to the frozen yogurt truck stopped in front of it. I was look thinking about what flavor to get. Blueberry or strawberry? I usually got strawberry because it was my favorite, but I was thinking about a change.

Beck pointed to the sign like a show girl. "Strawberry? Or blueberry, my lady?" He said in his best British accent.

"Do you think all presenters are British?" I laughed.

"It sounds better with an accent!" He looked at the sign and at me and raised one eyebrow.

"Blueberry," I smiled as he got two blueberry yogurts from the woman in the window. He bowed as he handed me one.

"My lady," He pushed the yogurt toward me. I laughed hard and took it from him. We walked side by side to the table where our friends sat.

We sat down, except, when Beck usually sat across the table from me, today he sat right next to me. We joked and ate our yogurt. The only thing that could have made it better was if all of our friends were there…even Jade.

I couldn't believe I was taking Beck from her. The more I thought about it the worse I felt, but it felt so right with him. I wasn't ready to give him up. In fact, it almost felt good that she would see me with him. Well, that is if he continues this around her. Right now… Beck was totally unpredictable.

I let it go and continued the conversation. I made a joke to Andre and Beck leaned into his laugh. Just then I caught sight of Jade walking in from the parking lot. I wanted to see if he was serious about not caring who saw, so I didn't say anything to him. Jade was staring me down. But I kept my laugh hearty and as real looking as possible. Part of me kept hoping Jade would go away but some part of me wanted her to come and sit with us, and for all of our friends to be together.

Before I knew what I was doing it slipped. "Jade!" I called to her.

E/N: There ya go. Chapter 20 was kind of boring, but a bit of a cliffy! I had a suggestion: sometimes I listen to music while I write, maybe it would make things more dramatic if you read while a song was playing in the background? I was thinking that I could give a song suggestion for each chapter or the chapters that I thought it would help... So what do you guys think?
