A/N: Okay so I just watched Three Girls and a Moose, and the next episode is Tori Fixes Beck and Jade? Hmmmmm….. Jandré kiss? I felt my first chapter was really short so I posted this to make up for it….. Hopefully. On with the story.
Chapter 2: Standing Alone
Beck had kissed so many girls. He was the school player, that is until she came along. She changed everything. She took his heart, trampled on it and threw it under a bus. She knew his game and she refused to play. Yet Beck found himself longing for something more. Her brown hair with the ever changing highlights, her blue eyes that seemed to pierce into his soul, her "I couldn't care less" attitude. It was different and he craved it. He needed it. She had to be his and he would stop at nothing to get her.
The whole gang was sitting around the table, Jade laughing at some joke Andre had told her. He felt sick, he should the one making her smile not Andre. Robbie grabbed Cat's hand and they walked away together, smiling.
He tried leaving her flowers, unlike all the others though, who had burst into giggles and fainted, she THREW his flowers to the ground, stomped on them then cut them up with a pair of scissors. He was shocked, flowers were one of his fool proof methods, how could she do that? Clearly his friends Andre and Robbie, who still carried around that daft puppet Rex he'd had since 3rd grade, couldn't believe it either. He was Beck Oliver, for god's sake. No one turned him down. No one. What was wrong with this girl? Didn't she see how good looking he was? And just look at his hair. She must be crazy. Yet he still wanted her. He couldn't give up on her and that scared him. Andre said he was falling in love. Robbie just laughed and said he was obsessed. He couldn't love. Was Robbie right? Could he love? Or was he just a heartless robot?
Andre started strumming his guitar and once he finished the love song he was writing, Tori burst into applause. She smiled, he did nothing. Andre smiled at Tori's reaction, it was no secret that they like each other. Andre smiled then headed off to his music class.
Then he gave her chocolates. She threw them out the window and every girl in the rooms jaw dropped. She turned down Beck Oliver. An impossible feat. She turned back to their acting teacher, Mr Sikowitz and acted that nothing had ever happened. Sikowitz looked amused, but even he couldn't hide the fact he was shocked. He knew about Beck. Any other girl could be playing footsie for the rest of the period. Beck was annoyed by now. He was the best guy she could get and yet she was ignoring his moves. How?
It was down to him, her and Tori. Tori said something but he wasn't listening anymore. The two girls continued to talk about something, tuning in he discovered, it was the project Sikowitz had given them, to talk about pain. She stood up and walked away.
Eventually he gave up. He had enough of chasing her around. Yet his heart still belonged to her. He stayed away from other girls and soon enough she was part of his gang along with her best friend Cat, which confused him. They were so different yet so alike at the same time. He couldn't put his finger on it. That bugged him and he spent his time, desperately trying to figure it out. He never did and he never would. Andre told him to stop trying after a month of arguing with himself over possible reasons. She was mean, cold and scary. Cat, however was bright, perky and naïve. He could tell straight away that Robbie and Cat would end up dating, he was good at that sort of thing. Yet he could never figure her out. He was confused at the jealously inside him, when Andre and her started hanging out alone together after school. He'd come along sometimes, calling others asking if they wanted to come join him. Because she could never be Andre's girl. She was reserved just for him.
Tori being the only one remaining sitting with him, smiled softly, picked up and her bag and left alone to his thoughts. Because she knew he missed her, and she wanted to help.
Soon he became oh so aware that she could be taken from him at any minute. So he told her how he felt. "I think about you all the time, I want you to be mine, will you go out with me?" Her reply was simple. "And how many others have you said that to and how many fell for it?" she growled pushing him away. He frowned before realizing that some idiot, probably an ex, had told him about the way he was before. But he'd changed, thanks to her. He stared at her. "I've changed and I understand, really I do" he whispered. Turning to walk away he felt her hand grab his and he turned to face her. "I'd be lying if I said I didn't like you" she muttered pulling into a kiss.
And now he's sitting alone in the Asphalt Café, trying to figure out what happened to him, her, them. Because he had let her go and he couldn't change that, no matter how much he wished. She was jealous, yes, but only because she cared. She was Jade, and he loved her for that.
A/N: What did you think? Please review! Just in case people are confused, she is Jade. The bold font is for the present day and the rest is the past. And its Becks POV.
