Sorry! That took me an eternity... But you know...it's summertime! I just got back from Santorini and I'll leave again in a few days. Sorry again! So...first of all, I hope you're having fun this summer and that you're resting and doing the things you love! Second, I don't know when I'm going to update again but I'll try to as soon as possible. I know it sucks waiting for a story! Third, I can't get sick of your reviews cause they're always fucking awesome and motivate me!

Now a few things about the plot. I tried to clear some things up cause I don't want you to think that Beck takes advantage of Jade. They have a special bond and I don't want to ruin that. I mean, yes I want their relationship to be hot and intense and passionate but I also want it to be sweet and caring. So, the sex scene will be maybe in a couple of chapters but I don't want it to be just sex but something more, cause the age difference is a fragile matter. Plus, I realized that I used the character of Ryder twice in this fic. That wasn't intentional. The first time I mention him is as Jade's ex and the second one as Ian's friend. I forgot about it so just imagine that there are two different Ryders! Lol! Sorry! :P

I also want to thank vanillaandtoothpaste cause she helped me a lot and made me realize so many things about my story! So, Thank you Livi! (update your story cause I can't wait :P)

Now you can enjoy the chapter! :D

Chapter 9

BECK'S POV

Kissing her made me lose track of time. Her plump lips brushing against mine, her fingers playing with my hair and the low noises she made, were enough to lead me to forget what it felt like being away from her.

All of that seemed so natural and normal. I wasn't her friend or her brother's friend. She wasn't the girl I was forbidden to "touch". As cheesy as it might sound it was just us. I was for her and she was for me... Two souls, two completely opposite personalities in one body. Because in a weird way we complete each other, Jade is the extension of myself and I'm the extension of herself.

I still recall all those times I couldn't picture myself with Jade and when I did I thought I was a fool or there was something wrong with me. How could I look different at the girl I saw like my sister? What would my best friend think when I'd told him that I might like his baby sister? These questions were torturing me for the last 3 years of my life. The years of doubt, as I call them now, because then I didn't know if Jade felt something for me, so I couldn't risk anything without being certain, especially when I wasn't ready to admit I like her.

She was such a rebellious teenager, a girl that was repulsed by others' actions and silliness and never cared about what everyone else thought or said and didn't hesitate showing it in a really early age. Jade is a wild spirit, never attached to anything except for her family and the people she cared about. She was always hard to handle as a kid, at least to everyone but me. Her parents would be chasing her to eat her food or find her when she run away from her house and punish her. They tried to make her come to her senses but failed numerous times. The only person she trusted and listened to, was me. We had a special bond since then, a bond that never broke but only got stronger as the years went by.

After her parents' death, we came even closer. The only different thing this time was that I was bitten by the love bug. When she became a prisoner in her own room and wandered around the house like a ghost, I was there to take care of her no matter how heartbroken I felt seeing the person I loved the most suffering like that. I was the only person she let in, literally and figuratively. We spent endless time crying, talking about everything she needed to let out and stayed in comfortable silence, because with Jade sometimes our eyes were able to tell us everything.

The fact that I was always by her side in this tough situation doesn't mean she didn't care about her brother, exactly the opposite happened. She came closer with Ian since they could express themselves and understood each other as the pain of the loss dragged them together.

The first six months were the most awful for all of us. Although, when Jade started to wake up from her own nightmare she also started changing. At first she started acting "mean" to others and the hurtful and malicious comments were more frequent to those who pitied her but that was just a slight development of her previous self. She wasn't so keen on showing any sign of weakness to the people around her. I had the privilege of that as well. Just like when we were kids, Jade bared her soul to me every time she felt like crap. This is how I fell in love with her.

Slowly but steadily.

It wasn't her body, or the way she dressed or her make-up. It was the whole package... I can't explain it with other words. It was just Jade and her personality. All these little things that made her what she is today.

I fell in love with the way she laughs when she's happy. I fell in love with the way she wrinkles her nose in disgust and the fact that she uses her hairbrush as a microphone in front of her mirror. I fell in love with the fact that she still watches Disney movies with Cat and enjoys it, even if she doesn't admit it. I fell in love with her passion for music and the fact that she can put her heart into a song and let people feel what she's feeling through her music. I fell in love with her because I know her better than I know myself. I even know she sneezes after chewing a mint gum and that she hates ducks.

Man she hates ducks!

"Babe..." I whispered. She looked up at me, lifting her head from my chest and smiled.

"Yes." She replied and pecked my lips sweetly. The heat of her kiss sent shivers down my spine.

"I have to go downstairs. Ian must be looking for me. I can't even remember the excuse I told him..." I said while playing with the ends of her hair.

"Come on Beck. Stay a little more. I'm so comfortable right now." She murmured with her face buried into my neck. I looked at the tangling mess of us and chuckled. Our legs were entwined, her body was basically on mine and my left hand was rubbing her back. We've stayed in this bed for at least 20 minutes, so 5 more minutes wouldn't harm us.

"Ok. But just 5 minutes." I told her.

"5 minutes? Don't you want to stay with me? Are you already bored of me? Do you wanna go at a fucking bar again so you can find another girl to..." She burst out with red cheeks.

"Jade calm down." I cut her off. "I can't believe you just said that. We had such a great time and now the moment is ruined and you..." I started saying but she interrupted me. How can she do that?

"So now it's my fault that the moment is ruined. God, why did you even get involved with me? You don't even want to hang out with me in public." She imitated my words and got out of bed. I immediately followed her and grabbed her arms.

"Just shut up and listen to me. I never said I was bored of you. Quite the opposite. I can't get enough of you. I don't want to go at a fucking bar again cause what I want is right in front of me..." The edges of her lips curled up slightly. "...and you know why we can't go out in public. You told me yourself. LA isn't that huge as everybody thinks it is. We have so many links and contacts in the entire city. Our clients could see us, your classmates could see us, or even worse Ian. So stop trying to pick up a fight, cause I'm not going anywhere no matter how loud you yell at me or how mad and pissed you are with me." I took a deep breath and looked in her beautiful blue-green eyes.

"You promise?" She asked with the most sweet and innocent voice.

"Promise what?" I asked confused and freed her arms.

"That you'll never go anywhere no matter how bad I may behave..." And with that I started laughing. I couldn't believe in my ears.

"So, after everything I told you, you picked that up?"

"Hey!" She exclaimed and punched my arm smiling. "Stop laughing."

"Sorry. I just...couldn't believe that you thought that I would ever leave." I said more serious this time while wrapping my arms around her waist.

"Can you just promise that to me?" She questioned again bringing her face closer to mine.

"I promised you before and I will do that again. I will never leave you no matter what." I closed the space between us and we started kissing softly.

"Now you have to go..." She informed me sadly, unlocking the door behind us.

"I do...but first..." I told her and kissed her neck playfully. She placed her hands on my shoulders and tilted her head back. In less than a minute, we somehow ended up on her bed once more that morning.

"Heeeeyyy!" Cat's voice and the door opening made Jade push me off the bed and I landed on the floor with a loud "boom".

"BECK!" Cat yelled shocked seeing me with her best friend on her bed, or at this point on the floor.

"CAT!" Jade shouted infuriated.

"JADE!" I said at last rubbing my head.

"Cat get in and close the door behind you." Jade ordered the redhead and she obeyed still out of words.

"You guys are together now?" She said with her palm covering her mouth and Jade and I nodded yes. For a moment I thought she would start screaming and shouting at me but instead she run towards me and hugged me on the floor.

"I'm so so so happy! You are finally a couple." She cheered and I laughed at her reaction.

"Cat, you are my best friend but could you get off my boyfriend?" She yelled at the giggling Cat and I was stuck by the idea of me being her boyfriend. I mean I knew it but listening to her say it out loud was something different. The good kind of different...

"Oopsie!" She got off me and went to hug Jade, who kind of accepted her hug.

"Sorry babe. Are you hurt?" Jade asked me concerned and stood in front of me with her hand standing out to help me get up.

"It's ok. I'm good!" I accepted her hand but pulled her down with me. She landed on top of me and we both burst out laughing.

"Beck! You're so dead!" I don't know if it was her threat or the fact that she was pressed against me but I touched her neck and brought her down for a kiss. As a result we started making out forgetting about Cat's presence.

"Ahem." Cat coughed but we continued anyway. "I don't know if I'm supposed to see that but I'll be in my room Jadey." And like that she bounced happily through the door leaving us alone again.

The kiss became more intense. She was rubbing on me, making it really hard, and I mean really hard, to resist her. She went down kissing my neck and then my collarbone and then reached my ear. She took my earlobe between her teeth and started sucking while her hands were caressing my lower stomach. Her hands were trailing down my stomach, going lower and lower and lower...

"Jade...I-I have to..." Her hand was as lower as it could get but I found the composure and gently pushed her off me even if I liked her hand where it was. "I have to go baby." I told her and pulled us both up. She frowned a bit and I kissed her nose lightly.

"I know."

"We'll talk tomorrow night. I'll pick you up from the park around the corner."

"That's right." Jade smiled and hugged me.

"I'll count the minutes..." I whispered.

"You're worse than a chick sometimes with you cheesiness!"

JADE'S POV

"So, that's everything that happened in the last 24 hours." I ended my description of the new events to Cat and Tori.

"And why didn't you tell me earlier?" Cat complained.

"Because you were too busy sleeping after your hangover!" I shouted.

"Fair point!" She agreed and smiled.

"I just can't believe something like that happened. I'm so glad you guys are finally together." Tori said happily.

"Thank you. Both of you. Now I need a favor." I told the two girls in front of me. "Beck asked me out, but the only place we can go for obvious reasons is his house, so...I was thinking that I could tell Ian we're having a sleepover here so I could sneak out in case he comes back earlier than usual. Is that ok with you?"

"Fine with me!" Cat raised her hand.

"Me too! So you're going at his house, huh?" Tori teased me lifting her eyebrow and the next thing I know a pillow was thrown at her...by me...

Soooooo? What do you think? I've thought about their date you all helped me with that! Thanks for reading! Don't forget to review!

Kisses! :*
