A/N: This chapter is more about the relationship between jade and her mother but don't worry this will lay the foundation for a stronger relationship between Jade and Beck as you will see in the future chapters.
Jade slowly walked to her Mom's door and knocked on it. Her heart started to beat fast. She didn't know why but she was feeling scared, scared about what she was about to find out. Then it hit her maybe she wouldn't even recognize her after all she hadn't seen her in 6 years and she has grown up a lot since she last saw her. For a moment it seemed like a bad idea to come here in the first place. Just as she was about to walk away, the door opened, revealing her mother.
She opened her mouth to say something but nothing came out. She realized she should probably introduce herself first. But before she could she heard her mother's kind voice saying.
"Jade darling, what's wrong?, Is everything okay?, Have you being crying? What happened? Did you get in to a big fight with your dad..." she couldn't help but let out a little sigh, a sigh of relief, and laugh a little bit at the long trail of questions.
"Jade are you okay?" her mother asked once again.
"No" said Jade with tears rolling down her eyes "I broke up with Beck"
"Oh… I am so sorry darling" said jades mother pulling her in to a long hug.
Meanwhile Beck was back at his RV. He was still in shock. He hadn't known what hit him. He wondered what he did wrong. How could Jade breakup with him like that without one single explanation? He knew his friends said that she was not likely to come back however he thought he knew Jade better than anyone. So he believed she will come back. She always did like after the Alyssa Vaughn incident.
"Of course she'll come back" thought Beck "It's not like she has thousands of boys ready to date her. Right?"
This thought made him feel better. He smiled thinking about tomorrow.
"There is nothing like making up after a good fight" he thought
He was looking forward to making up with her tomorrow at school. He knew she'll come back after all he is irresistible, no girl can resist him not even Jade West. But he had no idea how wrong he was.
Jade was sitting down on her mother's couch and was explaining what had happened to her in great detail. Her mother listened sympathetically.
"I am sorry mom" she finally said "I always hated you for leaving dad. But when I was sitting on those steps everything became clear. I started to understand what you had told me 9 years ago you know about love, respect, appreciation"
"I am so stupid, I don't know why the one tear that fell from dad's eyes made me take his side and hate you. I don't know why his tear whitewashed the countless nights you spent alone crying your eyes out"
"I am such an idiot. I saw his pain but not yours. I am sorry…"
"It's okay darling" said Jades mother "you were little, of course you couldn't understand. At least one good thing came out of your break-up. I finally got my daughter back and trust me when I say this. You made the right choice"
She smiled at her mother.
"I really missed this" said Jade "You know dad was never good with emotions like you are. I can never talk to dad about this. I guess that's why I found myself here in the first place"
"Oh No… look at the time" said Jade "Dad is going to kill me"
"Don't worry, I already talked to your dad, he knows you are here. He said you can stay here as long as you like"
"Wait, what?" asked Jade " you are still talking to dad?"
"Of course" said her mother "We never stopped. I called him every week and asked about you. He even sent me pictures of you and him"
"Oh… that's how you recognized me even though I have grown a lot in the last 6 years, now I feel like an idiot, if the two of you could work things out why couldn't I?"
"So do you want to stay over or do you want to go back" asked Jades mom
"I want to stay" said jade "I don't want this reunion to end just yet"
"Neither do I" said Jades mom "I'll tell you what, why don't you go to your room and change in to something more comfortable and we can continue this afterwards"
"Wait what?" said Jade "I have a room?"
"Come on, I'll show it to you"
They slowly walked to her room. As she stepped in to the room it reminded her of her room back when she was 8. There were teddy bears, dolls and various other toys that filled it. She opened the cupboard only to find many clothes in her size and that was when she realized that her mother really meant it when she said she was leaving her dad not her and she can come to her anytime. In fact she had waited for jade to come to her. Her mother had never left her it was she who had left her mother.
