HI! Back by popular demand is… THIS STORY I wrote three more chapters to this story over vacation, so my disappearance is no longer an issue!
Here…is chapter two.
Disclaimer: I don't own victorious…like at all…no joke.
At this point I feel that even if you have no curiosity toward the subject, I should tell you who I am and what part I play in the big scheme of things.
I'm sure you already know who I am, even though we've never met personally. I'm fate. Yes, as in the person that controls your future. Don't worry though, this story isn't about you, this is about Beck and Jade.
How could you be so cruel to poor Beck? You must be wondering. Well I'm not doing this for my own personal enjoyment, I'm doing it to teach everyone a lesson, because that's really what I'm here for. To teach a lesson. But lesson teacher just doesn't have the same ring as fate.
Now, normally I don't get involved or pay attention to any of my cases, but this tale was just so out of the ordinary that I just couldn't ignore them, let alone forget about them. The way had such a different relationship and the way the whole situation got handled and of course Olivia idiotic plan that got some people in big trouble. Look at me spoiling the ending though. If you want to know all this you'll of course have to read.
But of course, you didn't read this story to hear about me. Let's get back to the story you came here to read.
…
Jade did listen to Olivia and didn't tell Beck she knew about his being beat. The only way she managed not to was avoiding him at all costs. She didn't look at him, didn't talk to him, and didn't watch when he flinched at the pain of his stomach when he missed to textbook Andre tossed him.
She went the whole day wanting to say something to hint at the fact she knew or somehow get him to tell her about the whole situation but she didn't. She refrained from telling him and even avoided conversation until, well, I, stepped in.
"Ok, kids, we have an assignment. You have to write a two paged scene of any type, but this time I decided to pick the partners." Sikowitz's said holding up a hand written list. Jade silently hoped that she wouldn't get paired with Tori or Beck.
"Ok, Tori and Andre, Cat and Robbie, Nicki and Jack, Emma and Mary, and finally Jade and Beck." Sikowitz named.
Oh great.
The bell chimed and Beck approached Jade as she tried to gather all her books together and get out of the class.
"Looks like we're partners." Beck said with a crooked smile.
'Yeah, isn't that just great news?" Jade said, sarcasm dripping from her voice.
"You don't have to be so mean about it." Beck said, mock pain in his voice as he put a hand to his chest. She would've punched him in the arm at this point if it wasn't for the fact she had just watched him get punched for real last night.
"Are you okay?" Beck asked noticing something off about her. "You seem…different."
"Oh, just because I'm not swooning over you it makes me weird?" Jade held back a cringe.
"Well someone's in a bad mood." He muttered before walking out of the classroom. Problem is, he didn't tell Jade where they were meeting and he kicked himself for not asking to meet at her house because of…certain things going on in his RV.
He turned around to go tell her when he found her arguing with herself. Now, if you were paying attention before you'll know she's not arguing with herself, she's arguing with Olivia.
"Olivia, I'm in school. If anyone sees me-" Jade tries.
"I came after class! And you could ignore me. I was just making sure you hadn't told him." Olivia says.
"What, you don't trust me?" Jade asks sarcastically shoving one last book in her bag.
"Jade, you know I-"
"Don't even bother. I didn't tell him, but I'm his partner for this project." Jade explains hoping it's enough to please her.
"No, no, no, no, no, no! What if he finds out you know? Or better yet, what if you're you and find out 'accidently'?" Olivia asked putting air quotes around accidently.
"Just get out of here, Olivia. I don't want to talk about this." Jade says shooing her away with her hand.
Olivia gives her cousin one last look of distress before leaving. Jade sits on the chair putting her head in her hands and balancing her elbows on her knees.
Cue Beck Oliver. Beck had two options. Question her on who she was talking to or he could pretend he hadn't heard a word of that one sided conversation.
He went with the latter.
Beck knocked on the classroom door and let her turn around before entering the classroom himself.
"Hey, I was just wondering if we could use your house to work on the project." He asked studying her carefully.
"Yeah, sure, that sounds fine." She said putting on a fake half smile.
"Ok good." Beck turned around and started to walk out but the remaining image of Jade sitting with her head in her hands and the way she had talked to him this morning haunted him to the point of turning around. "You know, you can talk to me, right? I mean, if you need to."
"Yeah, thanks." Jade said with a slightly more genuine smile.
No I can't. That's what she was really thinking.
"See you tonight?" Beck says giving her a soft smile.
"Yep, see you tonight, and don't be late or I'll make you stand on the porch all night." She threatened.
"I'll be there at seven." He said confidently. That's before Jeffrey shows up, I'll be able to get there no problem. He thought to himself.
And get there he did. Right as the clock struck seven he rang the doorbell. The door opened and Beck was greeted by Jade's little brother who shoved his fist out to Beck. Beck gave the little boy a smile and tapped his fist back and gave him a quick noogie.
"Hey buddy is your sister home?" Beck asks.
"Yeah, she's in her room. I'll get her." The boy walked into the house all of two steps and cupped his hands around his mouth. "Jade! Your boyfriend is here!"
"He isn't my boyfriend you little pest! Go play upstairs." Jade demanded speeding down the stairs.
"Ready to get started?" Beck asked holding up a notebook.
"Sure." Jade said leading him into the living room. Unfortunately Olivia decided to follow them into the room.
"So I was thinking we could be a couple- if that's not to awkward." Beck proposed.
"Beck, we're professionals. I'm sure it won't be that big of a deal. "Jade said as Olivia appeared behind her.
"Okay, good." Beck said with a small smile. Olivia made a gagging noise earning her a glare from Jade. Unfortunate for her, Beck couldn't see who she was glaring at and just saw her turn around and glare.
"Uh, is everything okay?" Beck asked as she turned around to face him as if nothing happened.
"Everything's fine." Jade said shooing her hand.
"Come on, Jade. Just tell him to leave. It's not good that he's here. What if you let it slip?" Olivia whispered in her ear.
"So what do you think we should make our plot about?" Jade asked, ignoring the dead girl in her ear.
"I don't know if this is too dark, but I was thinking having it horror movie kind of life or death and it be the calmer part with the couple development. Is that okay with you?" Beck asked studying her blue eyes with his hazel ones.
"That's so stupid." Olivia commented with a dry laugh.
"That sounds like a great idea." Jade said shooting Olivia a glare.
Beck turned slightly to see what she was glaring at. He saw absolutely nothing. I bet it would be awkward for you to sit there having someone glaring at the air around you, so don't judge Beck for being creeped out.
"Uh, are you sure you're okay?" He asked again.
"Fine." Jade replied the gritted teeth. She was fine, just ready to murder a ghost.
"Okay." Beck said timidly still wondering why she was acting so strange.
"So what do you want me to do to keep from spilling the beans?" Olivia asked studying Beck carefully.
"Leaving would be nice." Jade hissed under her breath.
"Not going to happen." Olivia sing-songed back.
"Get out of here." Jade growled.
"No! If you tell him-"
"I won't tell him." Jade said aloud immediately regretting it.
"Won't tell who what?" Beck asked trying to ignore the fact she was talking to her self.
"Beck, I think you should go." Jade said shooting her cousin one last glare before moving towards the door.
"Oh, okay." Beck said, gathering his stuff and moving towards the door feeling confused and a bit hurt.
"Sorry. I just remembered something I was supposed to do." Jade covered up.
"It's fine." Beck told her. It was a lie.
He gave Jade one last smile before she closed the door.
"Good thing we got rid of him, huh?" Olivia stated with a triumphant grin.
"No. It's not. Damnit, Olivia. I don't want to have to spend the rest of my life avoiding Beck! He's my partner on this project and I'm going to do it, whether you like it or not." Jade said before storming upstairs.
She wasn't going to let her dead cousin take over her life. Not over this.
Remember me saying there might be language? Yeah, there's language.
