Ok, chapter 5, here we go! Seriously guys, Review! They give inspiration!
Disclaimer: Believe it or not, I still don't own Victorious or the Hunger Games.
Tori's POV:
Cat's plan was genius. She may be a bit of an air head sometimes, but she sure knows how to make up a good plan. It was a matter of getting them to talk to each other. That's all I wanted after three straight days of them glaring at each other.
The plan was pretty simple. There's a mountain with one hell of a view only a few minutes from camp. If we could get them to go up there alone, emotions would take over from there. How'd we get them on the mountain is simple; Cat and I go up there, swear we saw smoke signals and make them wait for the attack that will never come.
I don't care how mean that sounds. That's the plan.
I gave Cat a nod and we went sprinting and panting back into camp. Beck and Jade were next to us in an instant, fully armed.
"Sm-somke sig-signals, on the mountain, it-it's going to be a-an attack," Cat said, panting in between words. Man, she could act.
We went back and forth for a little while, until finally we got Beck and Jade to take watch. Faze one, complete.
Jade's POV:
Beck and I made are way up the mountain without a word. When we finally got to the top of the mountain, I was stunned. I had never really taken the time to look at the arena.
It was one big barren field covered with dark green grass, swaying with the wind. The field was covered with trees that stood twenty feet high with an array of golden oranges, florescent yellows and stunning reds. The leaves slowly took turns floating off the trees. To add to the beauty, the sunset was gold and magenta. The colors reflected in the sky with the exception of the dark wisps, which were the clouds. I look over to see Beck is as completely stunned as I am.
He sits down, leaning against a rock. I sit a few feet away leaning up against a misplaced tree. We just sit there staring out into the dimming sky. He's the one to break the silence.
"It's beautiful, isn't it?"
"Yeah, I've never seen anything like it." Silence once again fills the air between us. The moon comes out of hiding when he breaks the increasingly awkward silence.
"Why did you go with him in the woods?"
Him, I know who he's talking about. I feel my body tense at the mention of it, he sees it to, but doesn't withdraw the bearing question.
"I-he wanted to talk to me. I wouldn't talk there so he convinced me to follow him into the woods. I don't know what I was thinking, Beck, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have trusted him." What was I doing? I was going to look all weak and sappy. He looked down into his lap, without making eye contact, he said,
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled at you like that, especially after what happened."
Silence.
"Why did you save me, the first day?" He looked back up at me. His brown eyes sprinkled with the glow of the stars.
"Because, when I saw you that day you didn't look scared, that's how I knew you needed looking after. Only someone with people who wouldn't care if they died would look like you did. I figured you needed someone to care."
I didn't know what to say. No one's ever been so nice to me. He was so hard to understand. I knew I had to say something, but what do you say to that when you're supposed to be the mean one.
"You're right. I don't have anyone that cares, I'm sure you don't want to hear it, but I'm going to tell you anyway.
I'm not…liked where I live. My family hates the fact that I'm the most 'weird' person in the entire colony. I'm that daydreamer people stay away from, because she doesn't think the way she's told to. I'm the freak, in other words." He cracks a small smile, not to me, but the memory.
"So am I, I don't say it out loud, or tell anyone-except my parents who get very annoyed with me. They say, if it was different times, I wouldn't be living with them."
I look up at him and smile a little bit. The first time in what feels like forever.
"Where would you live, an RV," I say, with the hint of a joke in my voice. He laughs a little,
"I'd actually love that."
I move over to sit down next to him by the rock. He may be an ass, but he wasn't that bad. What was I going to do if I had to kill him?
Beck's POV:
I can't believe I'm making friends with the competition. In training, that's the one thing they said not to do. Better yet, I was in love with my competition. Somewhere, my trainer is banging his head into a wall.
I couldn't help what I felt, right? So what was I going to do when it's down to the last two and it could end up being Jade and me? I couldn't kill her, hell I couldn't kill Cat.
When I was younger, I would watch the allies on TV have to kill each other. I always wondered why they cried. Well, unfortunately, now I know why. This was going to be one, damn long night.
Ok, The Worst Couple, yeah, made me cry a little bit. Ugh, the anger I feel towards Dan is so great. But, he posted this on his twitter 'cause there were a lot of angry Bade fans. He said, "Sometimes couples break up and it's FUN to see how they get back together.
I'm not going to lie, I think it's good Beck and Jade are breaking up for a little bit *dodges heavy objects* only because, Beck has got listening issues and Jade's got anger ones. That's right; the perfect couple isn't perfect which makes them perfect.
