Hello people! Guess who finished her school year? Yeah, you're right, ME!
Sorry for not updating before, but I was studying because at my school if you get over 85% as your overall mark in a subject you don't need to do the Final Test that is the 30% of your total mark, and if you have over 85% in all your subjects, then your school years finishes 3 weeks before and I HAD OVER 85% IN EVERYTHING, YAY!
Disclaimer: I bought Victorious today and I'm writing in Fanfiction because I'm stupid and too lazy for writing an actual script ¬¬ OK, Fine, I don't own Victorious, happy now?
-Guys!-Cat said as she ran to the group of kids that were playing at Jade's garden. The petite looked really excited.
What?-Asked Jade confused, She was clueless about her friend's excitement.
-I was watching TV with my brother and he bit my left hand because I didn't want to change the channel, so I told him I wasn't going to change it and he told my mom that I didn't want to change the TV so my mommy told me to change it and I did it, but my brother wanted to watch some show about a murderer-
-Cat!-the children cut the brunette
-What?
-Where is this story going?-Jade asked her
-Oh, yeah I almost forgot! I watched a commercial about a talent show next month and I thought we should compete as a band.
At first the 3 kids laughed at Cat's idea, but then Jade started thinking about it seriously: André played almost every instrument, Robbie played the guitar(acoustic and electric) and she and Cat sang so why not?
-Let's do it!-Jade said, leaving Robbie and André exchanging shocked looks
-You want us to form a band?-asked Robbie
-Yeah, I mean, André plays almost every instrument, you play the guitar and Cat and I sing.
And the boys started considering the idea seriously.
-I'm in-said André
-Me too-said Robbie.
-Yay! What song are we going to play at the talent show?-Cat asked
-What about the song "Lucky" by Britney?-suggested Robbie
-Dude! There's no way I'll sing that song!- Jade said-It's too girly and that blonde remembers me of a younger version of that old lady that lives with like a hundred of cats at the street corner.
-Gross-The children said as they remembered that creepy old lady that gave them sugar-free candies on Halloween.
-Then what do we sing?-asked Cat.
-What about "Lady Marmalade"?-suggested Jade.
-That's totally inappropriate-said André
-Oh, c'mon, people will think we look cute singing such song and they'll love us, it always happens on talent shows.
-How do you know that?-asked Rex
-My sister competed in pageant contests when she was my age, she loved to sing dirty songs on the talent part and the judges loved her.
-Your sister was a pageant girl?-Cat questioned excited
-yeah, why?
-Oh, that's sooooooo cool! The neighbor of the best friend of my cousin's step sister was one too!-answered the little girl
-What a small world!-said Jade sarcastically
-So, back to the talent show thing, I don't think singing such a song would be a good idea-commented Robbie
-Oh please, it's just a song about a woman that, you know, has that job-the blue-eyed brunette said
-I WON'T SING THAT SONG!-Cat shouted
-Fine, let's just find another song as good as that one-her best friend said
-What about sk8er boi by Avril Lavigne?-suggested André
It was the best he could suggest . It was kinda punk, which Jade loved, it had the word ballet on it, which Cat really liked, the boy was a guitarist, which made Robbie like it and it was music, which André really loved, it was perfect for them.
The kids practiced everyday for the following weeks. They really wanted to win that competition, the prize was free candies for one year at "Sweet Taquitos", a store where they sold everything with sugar, even tacos!.
It was three days before the show. Cat, Jade and André were deciding at Cat's house the outfit they were going to wear. They were waiting for Robbie, he was 1 hour late.
-Uggh! Where is that weird kid?-Jade asked bored of waiting for him
-He must be on his way-Cat answered
The blue-eyed was about to protest again, when Robbie opened the door. He had a cast on his right arm.
-What happened?-The three kids asked
-I fell off my bike today.
-Oh my god, are you OK?-Cat asked concerned
-Kinda, but the doctor told me I had to use this for the next three weeks-Robbie answered showing the cast
-But how are you going to play the guitar like that-asked André
-Sorry guys, I can't
The children stared at him in different ways, all of them showing some sort of disappointment, Jade stared at him like if she was about to kill him, André with true disappointment and Cat like if she was about to cry.
-Now what are we supposed to do?-Jade asked
-I don't know, I guess you'll have to find another guitarist-Robbie said
-It's three days before the show!-André shouted
-I know, but there's anything I can do about it!-Robbie excused himself
-Thanks a lot Robbie! Now it's obvious that we're gonna lose and it's your fault!-Jade said
-I didn't want to break my arm, it just happened!-The boy with glasses protested
-We practiced for weeks Robbie!-Cat finally said something.
-I'm going home, I can't stay in the same room as him!-Jade said as she got out of Cat's house.
-See? You just ruin everything!-André told Robbie when Jade got out of the house
-I can't believe you ruined our chances of winning-added the only girl left
-Guys I told you I'm sorry!. Please forgive me!.
-I'm not forgiving you, we're gonna lose because of your little thumb!-André said
-I'd love to forgive you Robbie, but we worked really hard on the show and you just threw all our work to the trashcan!
-What do you want me to do about it? I can't un-break my thumb now
-Just leave-Cat said almost crying
The boy left Cat's house. Right after he shut the door, André said:
-I should go home
-Kay kay, bye-the brunette said sad
-We'll find something to do, don't worry-he comforted the little girl and got out of her house
The following day, Jade met Cat at their school
-Hey Cat, guess what I found-she said excited, her blue eyes were really open
-A pink city with unicorns and fairies?
-Gross, no!
-then what?
-I found a guitarist for the talent show!
-Really?
-No Cat, I'm playing with your feelings because I'm a bad girl-Jade said sarcastically
-You didn't have to answer like that. Anyways, what's his or her name?
-He's a boy and he's called Beck
-But how is he going to learn the song for the show?
-I told him the song we were going to sing and he promised to search the accords on internet
Cat hugged Jade, it was the best thing someone could tell her, she was really stressed about the show and the news of having a guitarist again solved a lot of problems.
-Let me go! I've told you I don't like hugs!
That evening Beck went to Jade's house to meet Cat and André. It was 5.30 PM and he was with his electric guitar. He wasn't sure why he said yes to Jade the day before at the park, he barely knew her and didn't know anyone else from her band, but when she asked him to join the band she seemed really needed and Beck loved to be helpful, although he had never helped a stranger.
He rang the bell of the girl's house and Ms. West opened the door.
-Hello, you must be Beck-The thirty-years-old said gently
-Yes I am-the boy answered
-Come in, Jade's waiting for you in her bedroom; it's the first door in the second floor.
-Thank you-He said shyly as he walked to Jade's room
When he got to the room, he found Jade with a boy and another girl, she immediately looked at him and smiled.
-Hi Beck!-she told him and took his hand for leading him inside her bedroom-Guys, he's Beck, Beck they're André and Cat.
-Hi-André said
-Hello!-Cat said
-Hi-Beck said to the kids
-So Beck, as I told you we're singing Sk8er Boi by Avril Lavigne, All you need to do is practice like your life depends of it-Jade told him
-OK-was all the boy answered.
And they practiced for two long days. They barely stopped for eating; they wanted it to be perfect. They became close friends really fast.
On the show's day, they were stressed; it was their first time on a stage, neither of them knew how it felt.
Right before their turn, Robbie appeared.
-Hi guys-He said shyly
-What are you doing here?-Jade said harshly
-I came here to wish you luck-He said-You must be Beck, nice to meet you-He told Beck
-Nice to meet you too-the new guitarist said
-Guys would you please forgive me?-he asked hoping they would put behind their problems
But they couldn't say anything, because the show host called them on stage.
They started performing timidly, but as the song kept going, they felt more comfortable. Cat and Jade made a little choreography on stage while André and Beck played their instruments. When they finished the song, the public clapped, the kids exchanged hugs, even Jade hugged everyone.
They were the last number, so they had to stay on the stage.
-We had awesome numbers today, don't you think?-The show host talked to the public-But just one was, by far, the best of them-People started shouting, but the kids couldn't understand what they said-Contestants number 19!-She shouted as she looked at André, Beck, Cat and Jade. They almost ran to the host.-Congratulation kids, you won! An applause to the winners!-The public clapped, the received an standing ovation while the host gave them their cheque for one year of free candies.
When they got out of the stage, Robbie was still waiting for them.
-Congratulations guys-He said, still hoping to be forgiven (A/N: Is that sentence correct?)
-Thank you-they said coldly. They didn't say a thing for the following seconds
-I forgive you-Cat broke the silence
-I forgive you too-André said
-I do too, even if I don't know why-Beck told him
The kids looked at Jade, expecting her to say something.
-Fine, I forgive you too-She finally said
-What are we waiting for? Let's go for candies!-Cat said
Wow! It came up longer than what I expected, more than 1600 words! BTW, thanks for reading, love you XOXO
