Chapter 2

Jade's POV

BRING. BRING. BRING. BRING. I moaned and slammed my hand against the snooze button. I turned over to get some more sleep.

"Wakey, Wakey! Eggs and bakey!" said a high-pitched voice at my doorway. I groaned.

"C'mon get up, Jadey-poo." Cat said and ripped the sheet off my body.

"AH! KILLER!" I shrieked. Cat giggled with her hand over mouth.

"Silly Jade! Get up! We got gabijahillion things to do today!" Cat exclaimed, flailing her arms her arms around.

"Like what?"

"Well… we're on break from our tour after tonight. And we're back in Hollywood, just like old times!"

"And?"

"We have a concert tonight! Isn't it exciting?"

"Like we have had every other night for the past 2 months?"

"That's because we're on tour, you silly cheese doodle!"

"What's so special about today?"

"I feel like tonight something special is going to happen to us." Cat said, happily. Her cheerfulness was too much to handle this early.

"Get up!" she said tugging on my arm.

"Okay! I'm up."

"Yay!" she yelled then got up and left the room. I sighed and crawled out of bed. I walked into the kitchen of the hotel room we stayed in. I sat in a chair as Cat merrily skipped around the kitchen in her cupcake pajamas. She slapped her homemade pancakes on my plate and I started to eat.

"Oh, yeah, Andre told me to give this note to you." She said, handing me an envelope. I raised my eyebrow when I saw the seal had been torn. Jade, it said, there's this little girl who really wants concert tickets and backstage passes. She's a huge fan and wants to meet you too, so maybe you could throw in some backstage passes too? Thanks. Andre.

"Why was this opened?"

"Oh, because I read it and I already sent him the tickets and passes." She said.

"Cat! We don't know who this kid is! Isn't it a little suspicious? He doesn't mention her name, age or phone number of her parents or anything! He just says, little girl. It's a little suspicious."

"I'm sorry! Don't hit me!" she said, covering her face with her hands.

"It could be Beck for all we know."

"Is that a bad thing?" she asked.

"Yes, it's a very bad thing."

When I was done with my breakfast, I took the note into my room and opened my suit case. I put Andre's note in and pulled out the other one.

I took a deep breath and opened it and reread it like I did every day. I traced over his handwriting and tried to picture him. I close my eyes and remember the day I found the letter which was also the last day I saw him.

Flashback

I knocked on the metal door of Beck's RV in his parent's driveway. After a few seconds, he didn't answer so I kicked it open.

"Beck?" I said. He told me to meet him here. I looked around and found a note next to a rose. I rolled my eyes at the cliché-ness of it. I opened the note and read it.

Jade,

I'm not a person who writes deep notes to lovers and I'm clueless on how to do this the right way so I'm just gonna say it.

I'm leaving. With Jessie. Our daughter needs a home and I don't want to have her grow up in a foster home. I know nothing about kids but I know I can make a good father. You'd be a better mother though. You didn't want her but I did. She looks just like you. She's our daughter and I love her.

I'm ready to live forever with you but you aren't. I'll always love you and I want to be with you again. One day if you forgive me, I'll be waiting for you. I hope you'll have a beautiful life, maybe even fall in love again. Whatever makes you happiest. Remember me. Remember how I love you. Remember your daughter and how she's safer with me. Remember all the times we had together in the best 3 years of my life. I love you.

Beck.

Flashback ends

If you loved me then why would you go away? I sighed and put the letter back in the pocket and got ready for the day. I put on a black shirt with lace sleeves, gray skinny jeans, Beck's necklace, and boots. I drove to the music video shoot. I walked into my dressing room, slamming the door with the word, JADE on it in black letters. I sat down into my chair and immediately dialed Andre's number. It rung three times until I heard Andre's voice.

"Hello?"

"Andre," I said through my teeth.

"Hey, Jade, what's shakey?" he chuckled nervously.

"Oh you know what's shakey," I said", so who were the tickets for?"

"A little girl, I told you."

"Really?"

"Really."

"So what's her name? Is she going alone?"

"Her name is uh, uh," he studdered and I heard him fumbling through stuff, "Poland Springs. And she's going with her dad. No, mom! No, her legal guardian. Why you freaking?"

"I'm not. So, Andre, how do you know this Poland Waters?"

"I DON'T KNOW!" he screamed."I'M UNDER PRESSURE!"

"Are you lying to me?"

"Yes! I'm sorry! Stop with the pressure it makes me sweat!" he blubbered.

"Who is she?" I said forcefully.

"Your daughter."

"Andre!"

"I'm sorry!"

"You should be! I'm not going to that concert." I objected.

"Don't be stubborn."

"Think of your fans. All the poor little girl wants is to meet you and find out who her mother is. Just give her that." Andre said.

"Do you know how much pain I've been in the past 10 years? It'll just get worse if I see Beck again."

"He loves you he didn't have a choice-"

"Ha!" I snorted, interrupting him, "If he loved me why would he leave me?"

"He didn't want-"

"He left me." I interrupted again.

"It killed him to-"

"I went through hell for-"I started but Andre interrupted me this time.

"Girl! Would you let me talk?"

"No." I said simply and hung up the phone.

AN: This was kinda cheesey and a chapter to explain things a little more. The next one is a little better, I promise! :)
