Ok so I lied, this is not the last chapter. Anyway I am suffering from a serious writers block right now but I felt uber bad not giving the readers a chapter in so long. So this was originally supposed to be the starting of the final chapter but I decided to put it as a seperate chapter because I couldn't spew out anymore. So this also explains why it is so short... sorry.
Beck POV
I stared intently at the television screen as my guy was shot once again in the back. The words "GAME OVER" plastered themselves on the screen as the background turned black.
"Dude? What is with you? We usually demolish at this game!" Andre asked. I guess I just couldn't seem to concentrate on the task at hand. In all honesty Andre shouldn't be surprised. I hadn't exactly been myself since Jade stopped speaking to me.
It had been two whole weeks since we last talked and it was pure torture. This was the longest fight we had ever been in. That was my fault though, usually our fights were Jade's fault and she would quickly get over it and come back to me with open arms. But this time I was a hundred percent in the wrong and I just didn't know how to admit it.
"Can I check your computer for a second?" I asked, my palms becoming unnaturally sweaty. I stared at Andre's quizzical expression and I became fully aware that he was looking for an explanation. I had completely forgotten about his paranoid grandmother and how I was only allowed to use the computer under "special circumstances".
"Oh, uh, well my mother said she would e-mail me the grocery list so I could pick up some stuff before I went home." I explained, trying to look as casual as possible. What? Just because I am a good actor does not mean I am good at lying. I mean I'm Beck, the one with nothing to hide remember?
"Dude that's the same story you told me last time you and Jade were in a fight." Andre said, but I saw the small smile creep on his lips and quickly thanked him as I went to get the computer.
"You do realize this is the 9th time you have checked the computer tonight right? I thought the whole point of coming to my house was to get your mind OFF Jade." Andre said as I typed in my password.
I sighed, Andre just didn't understand. I couldn't get Jade off my mind because she was ALWAYS on my mind, even when we weren't fighting. If I was buying coffee I would always subconsciously buy her one. If I was acting in a play I always imagined Jade as my leading lady. What? How else do you think I get that fantastic love sick puppy dog look when I act with anyone else?
Everything reminded me of Jade, even now as I play video games with Andre, all I can think about is that time I had to go clean Jade's whole room because I lost against her in Gears of War. She was my whole world and you can't just expect someone to forget their whole world can you?
"You don't understand" I simply stated to Andre as my profile began to load.
"Man you are so whipped." Andre retorted, but I didn't care. I would take being whipped over losing Jade any day.
My heart started to pound as I looked on the screen and saw that I had one new message in my inbox.
With shaking hands, I slowly brought the cursor over the message and my face light up as I realized the message was from Jade.
I held my breath as I began to read the message, praying that Tori's idea had worked.
I hate to admit this, but that was pretty sweet. Was that true about the Tori thing? Or was it some attempt you and Tori made up to get me to forgive you? But you better read this right the first time because I am never EVER going to write something like this again. Yes, I do need you, I think about you a lot every single day and the thought of not being with you drives me insane. So I may be a little over possessive, but do you seriously think I don't hear all the people questioning why you're with me? I know plenty of Beautiful girls like Alyssa Vaughn and Tori (don't ever tell her I said that or I'll kill you) could easily have you and I don't fully understand why you aren't with them. That's why I'm so afraid to lose you .But; I guess I could forgive you. How about we meet up after my play on the 18th so we can work this out? I'll see you then.
Jade
"It worked! Oh my god thank you Tori Vega! I could kiss you right now!" I said jumping up and turning towards Andre.
"I'm joking!" I said exasperatedly as I saw the horrified look on Andre's face. His face quickly turned to one of understanding.
"So you and Jade are cool now? Like should I warn everyone to look out for you two swapping spit in the hallways again?" He asked jokingly. My face fell a little, was that all they thought of when they thought of me and Jade together?
"Well, not quite. She said she will give me a chance, but she wants to talk about it after her show on the 18th." I said. Unfortunately Andre didn't seem to share my excitement and I felt fear grab a hold of me as his face started to show... pity?
"The 18th? Like, next Friday, the 18th? As in, Opening night of Romeo and Juliet, the 18th?" Andre said quietly. Suddenly my heart dropped as I sat quietly on the couch.
She had done it again. She must have known that the 18th was the opening night for my play. She was going to make me choose. Even after the video, she still didn't believe I was fully, completely and entirely hers. A small part of me was under the impression that this wasn't just a small coincidence. She still believed that there was some sort of ultimate choice, Vega or West. What she didn't know was that from the day I had asked her out, I knew I would always belong to her.
"What are you going to do man? " Andre asked. Did he seriously expect me to have an answer right then and there?
"I... I don't know." I whispered, the reality of the situation slowly setting in.
"You do realize that a load of talent scouts are coming to this play right?" Andre stated as I shot him a dirty look.
"Thanks, because that makes my choice so much easier to make." I replied sarcastically.
I buried my face in my hands as realization set in. I was going to have to choose between the two big loves of my life, Acting and Jade.
So I still havent decided wether he will go or not but I kinda like the whole suspense thing... maybe some reviews with ideas could help me out? better yet, any reviews might give me the initiative to write faster :P.
PS Once again I am sorry for how short this is, last chapter must be EPIC THOUGH!
