Diclaimer: I, obviously, own nothing to do with Victorious. I forgot to say that in the last chapter.

Okay, so this one is incredibly short, so yeah.

"Thomas, she needs help."

"Our daughter is fine! There's nothing wrong with her!"

"There's everything wrong with her! She said she was going to see Beck this morning! It's been three years, Thomas, and I can't take it any more. I'm- I'm leaving."

"Then I'm coming with you."

"What are we going to do, just leave her here?"

"She has friends. They'll take care of her, put her in a foster home. She's seventeen, Clara, she should be able to take care of her self."

Jades mother nods reluctantly. "Should we leave her a note?"

"I guess. But she might not even read it."

"Still."

He scribbles something down on a piece of notebook paper.

"Let's go."

They grab a few things and don't look back, trying not to think of the horrible world they have left their daughter to survive in alone.

A/N: Again, sorry that was really short. But hey, I don't even know if anyone likes this story at all yet, since I'm writing this literally right after I uploaded the first chapter.

Also, if there's actually anybody out there reading this, if you have any guesses what's going on, like with Beck and Jade and all, do tell! I'd like to hear all your guys' guesses. :)
