I am loving the reviews! Thank you guys SO much, now onto chapter four!

I don't own Beck Oliver, so I guess I'm still not Dan Schneider.

Beck looked at me for a second before proceeding to tell me about the events that occurred at Tori's. "Like I said, they were saying some pretty stupid stuff about well, us and you. And, Andre started talking about how you weren't good enough for me and that I was ruining my life, so I punched him. And, as you can imagine he punched me back. So, yeah."

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Was it not enough for them to publicly humiliate me in school? Now, they had to preach to Beck about how I was ruining his life. For the millionth time that day I could feel tears in my eyes, but I didn't cry, because what Beck was telling me just didn't make sense. "Beck, you're telling me that you fought your best friend in the middle of Tori's living room?"

"Yeah, I know. It sounds crazy but I just got so angry and I just couldn't believe that they were saying all those lies. I'm sorry." I couldn't believe Beck was apologizing for defending me. I knew that it had to be so hard for him to fight with Andre. I mean Beck and Andre had known each other longer than Beck and I had. They were practically brothers and I couldn't remember them ever fighting. It broke my heart to know that Beck probably ruined his friendship because of me. And, at the same it showed me just how much Beck really did care. It touched me to know that he really would do anything for me.

"Wait, did Andre scratch your shoulder too? I mean, how long could the guy's fingernails really be?"

Beck sighed, obviously not too keen to tell me how his shoulder had gotten all bloodied up. "Andre didn't scratch my shoulder. When I punched Andre, Tori kind of attacked me. She jumped on my back and well…" Beck gestured to his shoulder. I was fuming now. Vega was in for it. She had hurt Beck, and above all things, Beck getting hurt was the one thing that I really hated. I gently hugged Beck, careful of his bruised ribs and, thanks to Tori, scratched up shoulder.

I got up from the couch and grabbed my purse. "Where are you going?" Beck questioned, standing up.

"Out. I'll probably be out kind of late, but I'll see you tomorrow okay? Ice your ribs if they hurt and keep applying ointment on your shoulder so it doesn't get infected. I love you," I said, pecking his lips.

Beck took me in his arms and said, "Babe, where are you going?"

"Beck, don't worry. I'll see you tomorrow," I added before kissing him one last time. I could feel Beck's eyes on my back as I left the RV. When I got outside, it was then that I remembered that I had left my car at school. Well, Vega's house wasn't that far a walk and it would be good to have some time on my own to think about what I was going to say and do.

I walked confidently along the sidewalk, passing the large modern houses that littered Tori's neighborhood. I could see the outline of Tori's white house in the distance. The porch light was still on and I could see a car in the driveway, most likely Andre's. Now that I was so close I really didn't know what I wanted to say. Part of me wanted to ask them why they hated me and Beck being together. But, the other part of me wanted to smash her face in and demand to know why they had hurt Beck. I mean sure he had punched Andre first, but that led me back to asking them about their hatred for our relationship. Before I knew it I was on Tori's doorstep. I took a deep breath and then forcefully knocked on the door. I could hear shuffling inside and was finally met by Tori, who looked shocked to see me. Against my normal image, I decided to try and be rational and just have a civilized conversation with Tori and Andre. I couldn't believe myself, trying to be rational, all this crying had knocked down my walls and I felt slightly vulnerable under the scornful gaze of Tori. But, I put on a brave face and matched Tori's gaze.

"Can I come in?" I asked, kind of unsure of the answer.

"I don't know if that's the best idea," Tori countered.

I sighed, this was killing me, "Please, we need to talk, with Andre too." Tori looked at me for a second and opened the door a little wider allowing me access to the living room. Sure enough, as soon as I walked in there was Andre. He was stretched out on one of the red sofas, obviously in pain. He had a black eye, the result of one of Beck's punches and I noticed he was holding an ice pack to his abdomen. I decided to sit on the other red sofa and Tori joined Andre where he sat.

"Why are you here?" Tori asked.

"I'm here because I wanted to know why you guys hate me and Beck being together so much? I mean, we were together before and you didn't seem to have a problem. So, what's changed?"

It was Andre who spoke up, "It's just that it was nice to have my friend back. It seemed like when you guys were together, you were always together. I never saw Beck outside of school and even in school he was always with you. When you guys broke up, we hung out every day and it was like we were in elementary school again, I felt like I had my best friend back." My heart broke a little for Andre, but at the same time, it didn't give him the right to treat me like I was unworthy of Beck, especially when we were so happy together.

I then wondered, "Tori, why are you so against Beck and I dating?"

Tori just about growled, "Because, I like Beck. We would be so much better together than you two. You know, I really regret not kissing him before the Platinum Music Awards. I can't believe that I was trying to do something nice for you! I am so much better for Beck. With me he wouldn't have to worry about constantly getting in trouble with his girlfriend." Her words stung me and at that point, there was nothing else to say.

"Okay, well I guess I'll go. Thanks for talking, I guess." I couldn't believe how weak I was being, but I just couldn't help it. I was so broken, but I shouldn't be. I couldn't let their words hurt me. I had Beck, that was all that mattered. And yet, Tori's words kept replaying in my head, engraved in my mind. Before I left, I looked to Andre, "Does this mean that you don't want Beck as a friend…or me?"

"Not unless you guys break up. I'm sorry Jade, but you're a poison in disguise to Beck. And, I'm not going to watch him ruin his life with you." I just nodded, ready to leave.

As I closed the door behind me I heard Tori say, "You better watch your back Jade."

As you can guess, all of my chapters have kind of been cliffhangers…suspenseful! Well, there you have it, chapter 4! Please review, it means so much to me! Thank you to you who have already reviewed!
