The end is here. I made it long for you guys! I hope you had a happy holiday, whatever you may have celebrated! :)
Jade's POV
I smiled to myself when Beck handed me my coffee. It was 7:40. Beck came to drive me to school. The whole school probably knew about our "break up"-if you can call it that. But I didn't care. There's no need for anyone to know about our personal life.
"Ready to go?" Beck asked. I sighed.
"Yeah, whatever."
Ten minutes later we pulled into the school parking lot. School didn't start until 8:00 so we had time to go to our lockers. Unfortunately Tori was there too.
"Oh, hey guys!" she smiled brightly. "What's up?"
"Nothing," I said and opened my locker, getting the books I needed. Beck went over to his too and a moment later he was at my side again.
"Oh, okay then." Tori studied my face, probably trying to figure out if I was in a bad mood. "There's Andre, see you later!" She ran ahead to catch up with Andre. Beck took my hand and we walked to Sikowitz's classroom.
Riley's POV
"Cat, Jade, Riley, and Beck, come up here!" Sikowitz called abruptly. Great, I was paired with the people I never want to speak to again. Well, except Cat. But we didn't talk much anyway. I got out of my seat reluctantly and got up to join Cat who was the first one to get up. "Now," Sikowitz said once everyone was on stage, "we'll start off by doing a round of alphabet improv!"
Alphabet improv? Seeing the startled look on my face, Cat began to explain: "It's when you say something with the first letter of the alphabet-" "I know what it is." I told her quickly. Cat looked confused, but then went back to herself. "Kay kay!"
"Right, now Jade, start us off! Cat, you go next, then Riley and Beck!" Sikowitz sat back in a chair and started drinking his coconut milk. "Talk about anything you want!"
Jade's POV
"Ah, thank you for meeting me here today." I blurted out whatever popped into my head in my country voice.
"But we're in the woods!"
"Cat, it's fine, this is odd though."
"Dude, where are we?"
"Eastern Forest."
"Forests are so fun to explore!"
"Gosh, yes they are!"
"Hungry animals live here too."
"I know and I don't care."
"Jade wants us to get eaten by wild animals!"
"Kay…"
"Lies, it's not true!"
"Mostly."
Cat gasped. "You lied!"
"Cat, you are out! The next letter was n!" Sikowitz called.
"Phooey." Cat slowly walked back to her seat.
"Now, why are we here?"
"Out with it!"
"Pretty impatient aren't you?"
"Quite right."
"Whoa…" Beck shut his mouth once he realized what he said out loud.
"Beck, you're out! It was r!" Sikowitz shouted, making everyone jump.
"I know." It was me and Riley now.
"Right, so what did you want to say?"
"Something."
"Tell me!"
"Um, no."
"What?" Riley demanded. Then she realized what she'd done.
"Riley's out! The next letter was v! Jade won!" Sikowitz said. "Let's move on!"
Lunch
"Jade! Yay, you're back!" Cat exclaimed happily. We were sitting back at our old table with everyone else, even after my arguing.
"Yeah." I said. "I missed you." she replied. I couldn't help feeling a little bit sad for her. "I missed you too," I told her, sitting in the chair next to her. It was true. Cat could annoy me at times but she was still my best friend.
"Oh, you're sitting here again?" Tori came to the table with Andre following. "Yeah, what's it to you?" I shot back. "Nothing," Tori said quickly. "It's just… you guys don't show up for the rest of the week and now you do." She paused for a minute. Then she brightened like a light bulb lit up in her head. "Did you have another fight?"
"It's none of your business." I started eating my salad that Beck got for me. "You did!" Tori accused. "Let's just not talk about it." Beck spoke for the first time. Tori glanced at Beck and me then back to Beck again. "Whatever, I don't care. Hey, where's Riley?"
"Riley's with the popular girls," Andre told her, looking at the table, "Apparently she plays soccer and met some girls from school that plays and suddenly she's like best friends with them now." Riley was between a girl with long, brown hair and another with short blond hair. She was laughing at something one of them said.
"Oh." Tori sounded disappointed. "She wasn't really a friend anyway." Beck said. I ate a forkful of lettuce to hide my smile. "Right," I agreed once I swallowed. We knew the real reason why she wasn't here, but no one needed to know that.
"She still talks to you." Cat pointed out. Before class they were sitting next to each other whispering. Tori looked at her. "Yeah," she said. "So she's still your friend!" Tori looked thoughtful. "I guess you're right!"
"Great, we're done now." Robbie said. Everyone looked at him. "You had to say that didn't you?" Rex commented. "She doesn't like me!" Robbie protested. "Dude, no one likes you!" Rex exclaimed.
"Rex, that was so mean!" Cat scolded. The bell rang, indicating that lunch was over. I grabbed my stuff and walked away from Cat and Robbie, not interested in their conversation.
Riley's POV
I sat with my new friends at lunch. I was still friends with Tori, but since Beck and Jade were sitting at her table, I wasn't going anywhere near them and I was invited here. I felt more comfortable and happier. Avoiding them was easy; until the end of the day. I was at my locker when Jade came up to me.
"Listen," she started before I had a chance to speak, "I don't know what's going on between you and Beck, but if you have any ideas you can just forget about them because we're together again."
I looked disbelievingly at her. "Okay, here's the thing," I said. "I don't and never did have any feelings for Beck. In fact, I hate him now and you're really starting to annoy me. This whole thing was not my fault, but you're acting like it is. I know you two are together, you don't have to keep telling me." With that, I shut my locker and walked away. I headed over to Kayla, one of my new friends, who was waiting for me.
"Were you talking to Jade?" she asked me. Everyone stayed away from her and advised me to do the same. I already knew that though.
"Kinda," I replied. "It was nothing important. Let's go." We walked outside in the student parking lot and went to her car.
"Hanging out at my place?" Kayla suggested.
"Sure."
Beck's POV
Jade and I were at my trailer after school. I was getting some food and drinks. Jade sat on the couch playing with her favorite pair of scissors.
"Wonderful day, wasn't it?" I joked, setting down a plate of Oreos and two glasses of milk on the coffee table.
Jade grabbed an Oreo and dipped it in the milk. "Yeah, totally." she said sarcastically. "You got out in the alphabet improv and you never do."
"I know, but you and Riley agreed on something. I thought I'd never see the day." I took a bite of my Oreo. "Besides," I went on when I swallowed, "I wasn't supposed to say it out loud."
"Whatever, it was just acting." she replied. "She hates you, you know."
"Riley?" I asked. "That's not hard to believe." Then I inwardly groaned as I realized what this meant. "What did you say?"
Jade shrugged like it was no big deal. "Nothing. I just told her not to get any ideas because we're back together. Then she started telling me off by saying random crap."
"Okay…" I didn't want any more "drama" happening. Everything's starting to go back to normal.
"I'm not talking to her anymore." Jade said.
"Good." Jade leaned into me. "I love you, Jade." I told her.
"I love you too."
That's it! First off, thank you for your reviews, they mean a lot! :) And to everyone who favorited, put this on story alert, etc.
I wasn't exactly sure how to end this but I like it. Tell me what you think!
5,655 hits? Wow, that's amazing; I didn't think this fanfic would get that many, thank you, thank you!
When I'm not too busy, I'll be doing another Victorious story, called Horror at Hollywood Arts. But that could be awhile, since I'll be having two fanfics going on.
I wanted to put this up before the year's over. Happy New Year!
