Beck got to school the next day dreading the moment he saw Jade. He was going to have to push her again. He was going to do all he could not to push her too far. Jade was having a hard time lying to him, he could see it in her eyes now that he knew she was acting.
Jade saw Beck. He was at his locker just sitting there deep in thought. For once she was glad that her locker wasn't by his.
"Hey Jade."
Jade turned around to see a smiling Cat standing in front of her.
"Hey Cat." Jade turned back to her locker.
"Jade, I need to talk to you about yestarday."
"What about yestarday?" The seriousness in Cat's voice was strange, it made Jade slightly nervous.
"Jade did you and Beck have a fight that none of us saw. Is that why both of you blew up in improv? Om my goodness, one time I had a fight with my brother..."
"Cat we didn't have a fight. I think he is just mad that I don't remember him, that's all. So about that fight with your brother?" Jade was going to use talking to Cat as an excuse not to talk to Beck.
"You really care about the fight with my brother? Okay well he ate another one of my braclets? Can you believe that?"
"That's it?" Jade said. Beck started to make his way over to Jade.
"Hey guys." Beck said as he walked up.
"Hi, Beck" Cat and Jade said together.
"So, Jade, remember anything new?"
"Just remember what happened yestarday, and that I'm still mad at you. By the way, even if I do remember everything one day, I'll still be pissed about what you did. I won't forget everything that happened, so don't think that if I remember everything you'll be safe." Jade said storming off. What no one noticed was that she once again made her way to Sikowitz room.
"Jade, what are you doing in here? You don't have my class today." Sikowitz was in the middle of drinking a coconut.
"I know that I don't have this class today. Listen I want to know exactly when this test ends. Is it right when I walk through the door, or what?"
"Well, I said that it ends when class begins, but I would love to see his face when... Oh, right you're still here. Right when you walk through that door. Make sure that everyone knows that your test is over."
"Of course."
"I'm actually surprised you didn't ask for to be moved up again."
"I have given up on that. I will pass with flying colors."
"Okay, well off to class you go."
...
Beck stayed away from Jade when he could. But when he did see her, he pushed; hard-ish.
"Hey, Jade, I have a question."
"Okay, what is it?"
"What was it exactly that the doctor said. I was only told that you went to the hospital and that your amnesia was temporary. What did he say?" Beck was really hoping that Jade thought of some kind of come back.
"He said exactly what you said, but he said it to Lane and Lane told me. I assume that Lane was the one who told you about me. I got the same information as you did. Beck, I have a question." Jade's voice was filled with venom.
"Oh and what would that be?" Beck's voice was teasing.
"Why are you being such an... ASS?" Jade stormed off before Beck could answer.
Beck felt guilty, Jade didn't know that he was acting. He needed to lighten up.
...
"Beck, man why are being so brutal with Jade? She doesn't deserve that." Andre asked looking at Beck. The group was sitting at lunch, well the boys were sitting at one table the girls at another.
"Andre, you wouldn't understand. I can't even tell you why." Beck sighed. This was getting harder.
"No? I can tell you why. You're just mad that she doesn't trust you anymore. Have you ever thought that this amnesia is testing your relationship." Beck laughed at the irony of the statement. Andre continued.
"Beck, this isn't funny. If Jade can't trust you after remembering all the times you've kissed, which I can say is a lot by the way. Oh, and don't forget having sex, which I don't want to know how many times she can remember. I didn't even know you guys did that."
"First of all. We have been dating for three years, its only happened once. Second I'm not mad, I'm worried. People that have amnesia, if its temporary, when they rememver things, they get massive headaches. Jade may say that she hasn't remembered anything new, but I can tell she has. It was during school that I saw the change. She wasn't alone all day. Did you see her get a headache? I sure didn't. What if this isn't amnesia?" Beck needed to keep character. He hated lying. Although what he said about he and Jade only having sex once was true.
"Look Beck, I know you are worried about Jade, you need to lighten up though. Everthing will be fine."
"Okay. Whatever, I need to go." Beck said walking away to Sikowitz classroom.
"Beck, what do you need today?" Sikowitz said no surprised to see his student.
"I need to know when this test ends."
"Well, after Jade's test ends."
"When does her test end?"
"That is up to me. You do not need to know."
"Wait didn't you say it ended this week. Does it end Friday?"
"Beck, I'm going to be honest. Jade's test doesn't end for a while." Sikowitz loved to mess with his students.
"A WHILE! Sikowitz, this needs to end soon. I can't stand to watch her face when I'm actually doing my test. This needs to end soon." Beck normally would have kept a calm face about this, but it was too late.
"Beck if you want it to end so badly then forfit your grade, fail. That or cause Jade to fail. You have those options or you could choose to wait until Jade's test is finished."
"I can't let either one of us fail. Fine I'll wait. Please don't let it be longer that this week. I couldn't handle that."
"No promises."
Beck walked out of the classroom. Thankfully he didn't speak to Jade the rest of the day, and she didn't speak to him.
...
When Jade got home she wanted to cry her eyes out. She had heard what Beck said at lunch. He was worried sick about her and she couldn't do anything about it. She was slightly annoyed that Beck had said something so personal to Andre about thier sex life, even if she was the one to annonce it to the entire class.
Jade's head was throbbing. She had been thinking of any and every thing she could to let Beck know about her test without telling him and failing. Looks like tomorrow would be just a little bit harder.
