Chapter 4

A/N: First of all I want to apologize for the long wait on this chapter but my computer blue screened.. Also there's a reference to a Nickelodeon show in chapter three. If you find I'll think of something cool as a reward. Also this chapter takes place one month after chapter three.

Jade's POV:

It has been one month since the best day in my life had occurred. There have been improvements in the case as well. Mr. Vega was able to get a case against Beck started, the court date is next week. According to David - as he asked me to call him from now on - the case is going to be over before we know it. The Vega's are treating me like family, most likely because Tori and I told them about what's going on between us. We aren't telling many people since we don't need to be discouraged about anything before we go to court. Today we are going to go to my parent's house they deserve to know what happened and I want them to meet Tori. My parents have never been judgmental so I'm really excited to let Tori meet the parents.

Although it's not on a very good occasion I'm happy regardless. I haven't seen my parents since the night I told them I was going to stay with Tori for a little while. They didn't really question anything but my safety. So I'm just hoping that this works out. Me and Tori are almost to my house I'm glad that she's driving since my hands are shaking so bad that we'd crash if I drove.

"Jade are you alright?"

"Yeah, it's just that I'm a little nervous about telling my parents too much, too quick."

"Don't worry I'll be right there with you."

"I know that makes it a little easier."

We pull into my driveway and Tori turns to me, "Here we are, ready to go in"

I walk up to my door and knock on the door. It seems like ages before the door opens. What was behind the door almost made me run away in fear. The last person I ever wanted to see was in my house. That person is Beck Oliver.

Before I could register what was going on Tori already began flipping out on him. "What the hell are you doing here Beck?"

"I came here to talk to Jade", he said with venom coating his voice.

"Where are my parents Beck?"

"Oh yeah, them they left a note saying they were going to be gone for a little shopping. So me and you have a little time to get reacquainted."

Beck started walking towards me and Tori. But Tori stood in front of me, "That would not be smart Beck my dad will be here soon so maybe it's best you left."

"Tori why do you protect her? She hates your guts."

"Beck you need a reality check but me and Jade have become more than friends."

"What so now she's fucking you when you wouldn't let me?"

"Beck it's not like that Tori loves me for me not for my assets."

"Yeah until she gets bored of you."

"Beck maybe if you tried to learn more about Jade maybe you wouldn't get 'bored' as you call it."

"Learn more she wouldn't let me in."

"Did you ever ask why or did you just want to get in her pants?"

He looked down at the floor and Tori went off on him, "That's what I thought now get out of here Beck and we'll see you in court."

I could swear that there were tears in Beck's eyes before he walked out the door.

"Damn Tori I think you made him cry."

"Well he deserved it."

"Yeah you're right."

About an hour later my parents and David arrived. Tori and I explained that Beck had been in the house. After about thirty minutes of catching up and small talk David finally started on why we were all here.

"Mr. and Mrs. West now it's time to let you know why I asked for this meeting."

"I think we may already know."

"Well I'll inform you that it is good and bad news."

My parents nodded and David continued, Well three months ago Jade was almost raped by her ex-boyfriend Beck. He had assaulted her when she started to resist him. If it wasn't for Tori here, Jade could have been raped or worse.

"Have any charges been made against him?", Mr. West asked.

"Yes but it's going to be in family court. We may not be able to convict him but we're going for a restraining order regardless."

"Alright when is this court date?"

"Next week Thursday at 12:00 p.m."

"We'll be there, now Jade would you like to tell us about your friend there."

"Okay this is my girlfriend Tori Vega."

"When did this happen?"

"About a month and one week."

"So Tori why don't you tell us a little about yourself."

"Um, okay I go to the same school as Jade. I want to be a famous pop star and possibly pursue acting. Ever since what happened to Jade I've been her rock."

"Do you love our daughter Ms. Vega?"

"Since the moment I laid my eyes on her. I would do anything to keep her safe and happy."

"Then you have our blessing to date."

David and my Dad stood up and shook hands.

"Jade", my mom called out before we left. "You and Tori come and visit us every once in a while."

"Okay."

With that the one of the hardest parts were finished. Tori and I left my house and were on our way back to her house to spend some alone time.

A/N: There you have it the next chapter will be court time. Then in chapter 5 there will be something you may not see coming. Again I'm so sorry for the wait.
