"Hey, where did Beck go?" Tori asked about an hour after Beck had abruptly left her house by himself.

Andre shrugged, "He didn't say, he just left."

Tori frowned and checked her phone which was resting on the coffee table in front of her. No new messages or missed calls. She shrugged and guessed that Beck had just gone home for the night. He hadn't spoken much throughout the evening, just sat silently to himself staring at either the ground or his phone.

"I hope he's okay," she sighed, leaning against Andre tiredly.

"I doubt it," Robbie spoke up, "If he's feeling what I'm feeling, he's far from okay," he sighed, resting his chin on his hand as he leaned his elbows on his knees. Tori smiled sadly at him and reached over Andre to rub Robbie's shoulder comfortingly. He managed a small smile before he removed his glasses and rubbed his eyes, "I think I'm just gonna go home, I need to be alone," he spoke softly.

Andre and Tori nodded in understanding and stood up to walk him out to his car, "Will you be okay?" Tori asked as she leaned against his car, feeling Andre slide an arm around her waist and pull her close to him. Robbie nodded silently and slid his key into the lock, unlocking the car before climbing into the driver's seat.

"Call us if you need us," Andre smiled, wanting to do his best to help his friends. He just counted his blessings that he still had Tori. Robbie nodded again and managed a small smile before starting the engine and driving out of Tori's street.

"I feel bad for him. And Beck," Tori sighed sadly as she and Andre walked back up the path towards her front door.

Andre nodded, "Me too, I'm just glad you're still here," he whispered, pressing a kiss to her hair. She smiled softly and wrapped her arms around them as they entered her house.

"Can you stay tonight? I'm kinda scared to sleep alone," Tori requested as she closed the door behind him.

He smiled softly and nodded, "Of course, as long as it's okay with your dad."

"It's fine, just keep the door open," David smiled from across the room, overhearing their conversation.

Tori and Andre smiled before making their way up the stairs and into her bedroom. Tori silently thanked her father for letting Andre stay - there was no way she would be able to sleep by herself, especially after what had taken place in her living room earlier on.


Beck grunted as another punch was thrown at his face, followed by a blow to his chest. His eyes were beginning to swell and blood was pouring from his nose, dripping down onto his plaid shirt which was already covered in mud from where he had been thrown out of the van after arriving at the destination. His head snapped to the side as a hand came down upon his face, the slap sound echoing through the small room he was being held in. His hair fell over his eyes and he glared up at the two faces staring down at him.

"Not so tough now, right, pretty boy?" Stanley sneered as he grabbed a fistful of Beck's hair, tugging roughly and making Beck wince. He let go and delivered another punch to Beck's cheek, causing him to grunt before spitting a mouthful of blood onto the wooden floor below.

"What do you want?" he groaned, looking up at Stanley's face.

Stanley said nothing but instead whispered to Jessica who was standing beside him. She smirked and nodded before grabbing Beck by his shoulders and yanking him up from his chair - his hands still tied tightly behind his back.

Downstairs in the basement, completely oblivious to what was going on upstairs, Cat and Jade sat together in the middle of the room. Jade looked down at her broken fingers and hissed as she tried to move them. Cat pouted and looked away, unable to cope with looking at the sight of Jade's misshapen and bloodied fingers.

Suddenly, Jade looked up towards the ceiling as she heard something come from above. "Did you hear that?" she whispered to Cat, who looked up at her.

"Hear what?" she questioned.

"It sounded like... I don't know," she trailed off, shaking her head, "Maybe I just imagined it," she finished with a sigh.

Just as Cat opened her mouth to question her, the door to the basement suddenly slammed open loudly, the bang echoing throughout the basement and making the girls jump in fright. They turned their heads to see who was coming down, and were shocked at what they found.

Jessica was walking down the stairs, dressed in a large black hooded sweatshirt, and she was dragging a very beaten up and bloodied Beck Oliver down the stairs behind her. Jade's good hand came up to cup her mouth as tears welled up in her eyes. Cat gasped and her own eyes filled with tears.

"Beck!" Jade cried, her heart stopping.

"Here's your pretty little boyfriend," Jessica sneered as she came off the stairs. She threw Beck at them by his shoulder, sending him crashing face first onto the cold ground - unable to save himself due to his hands tied tightly behind his back with rope. Jessica kneeled down and attached a cuff to his ankle, snapping it closed before she then turned and went back up the stairs, slamming the door loudly behind her and locking it.

"Oh my god," Cat breathed, tears beginning to leak from her eyes.

Jade scrambled over to him hurriedly, desperate to see if he was okay.

Beck groaned painfully as he rolled onto his back, his chest heaving as he gasped for breath - the pain in his lungs making it difficult. Jade reached out and brushed his hair away from his face, revealing a large amount of blood caked onto his tan skin and several gashes scattered around his handsome features. She fought back tears as she looked down at him.

He stared up at her through blurry vision and a small smile appeared on his bruised lips, "I made it," he breathed, "I found you."
