Wouldn't it be the perfect crime
If I stole your heart
And you stole mine?
8:45 read Beck's watch after he looked to check the time in the front seat of Moose's Mercedes. After football practice had finished the gang had decided to go to Karaoke Dokie instead of Nozu seeing as Tori and Cat had persisted that they were in a 'dancing mood', so the seven of them had all piled into their cars and made their way to the popular club.
"Yo, this is gonna be your first night out isn't it?" Moose asked keeping his eyes on the road.
Beck nodded, "Yeah, I guess it will be."
Moose laughed, "Karaoke Dokie is the best spot if you want to have a good night out. Trust me. The girls love it as well because they can all get up on the stage and sing."
Beck's mind drifted then, he hadn't actually ever heard Jade sing before. He thought he remembered Tommy mentioning it briefly however he hadn't actually considered her a singer. He looked to Moose with a curious expression, "They any good?"
Moose nodded eagerly, "Dude you have not lived until you've heard those girls sing together, god… their fucking awesome."
Beck smiled as Moose pulled into an empty car spot. Beck stepped out the door and looked at the building that stood in front of him. Karaoke Dokie read a blue and purple neon sign that was placed above the building. Moose started to walk inside so Beck quickly followed.
Once they were inside they spotted Robbie sitting at a round table by himself, so they strolled over.
"Hey Rob." Beck greeted taking a seat next to the curly headed boy. "Where's everyone else?" he asked as Moose also took a seat.
Robbie nodded his head towards the stage, where there were several people dancing, including Tori, Cat, Jade and Harrison. Beck's eyes narrowed as he saw Harrison's arms around Jade's waist as they danced to the music.
"How come you're not dancing?" Moose questioned as he reached for a menu.
"I was about to ask Cat to dance with me, but she ran off before I got the chance." Robbie sighed as he rested his head in his open palm. "Maybe I should go up and ask her no-"
"You're here!" Came Tori's excited voice as she ran over to the table, followed by the rest of their friends. Jade took a seat next to Beck and he smiled at her.
"Let's get buffalo nuggets." Tori stated as she and Harrison also took seats around the table. "Waiter!"
A blonde waitress walked up to the table then with a notepad in hand. She smiled at the group, "What can I get you guys?"
As the gang started to order their food, Beck couldn't help but notice the fact that Harrison hadn't taken his eyes off her since she greeted them. He was staring all over her and wasn't doing a good job at doing it discreetly.
When it was his turn to order he was still staring at her, "Hey," he said smirking and leaning forward, "I'll just have a soda."
The waitress gave a shy smile and walked off. All eyes were on Harrison including Jade's as she glared at him. "What?" he asked, once he had directed his attention back to the table. Jade rolled her eyes at him and stood up, "Come on." She said to Cat and Tori, "I want to do some singing."
The girls both stood as well and walked over to the MC, leaving the awkward tension at the table.
"Dude." Moose stated to Harrison once the girls had left.
"What?" he shrugged.
"You've got to stop doing stuff like that! You can't openly stare at a girl, when your girlfriends right there sitting next to you!"
Harrison rolled his eyes, "Whatever, Jade needs to chill all I did was check her out a bit."
Moose snorted in annoyance but decided to drop the subject.
"Alright, alright everyone. We got some singers down here tonight!" The MC shouted grabbing everyone's attention. All the boys turn to face the MC where the girls were walking up the steps to the stage. "Okay girls what song you feelin'?"
"Were gonna sing 'Give it up." Cat said smiling cheekily.
"Woooah, a little RMB action toni-"
"Yeah, just play it." Jade interrupted looking annoyed. The girls all stood in a straight line facing the back of the stage as the music started up. "Someday I'll let you in, treat you right, drive you out of your mind." Jade sang immediately gaining everyone in the audience's attention, they all looked to her mesmerised.
"You've never met a chick like me, burn so bright I'm gonna make you blind." Cat sang following Jade's line.
"Always want what you can't have, but is it so bad if you don't get what you wanted." Sang Tori.
"Make you feel good as I'm with you, let me shape yeah boy let's get it started. Give it up, you can't win, because I know where you been, such a shame you don't put up a fight."
Beck just sat there completely and utterly mesmerised by these three girls (mainly Jade actually.) He knew that they could all sing, but the way that their voices sounded together made is heart swell.
He didn't and couldn't take his eyes off of Jade the whole time she was on stage. The way her hips moved when she danced to the music, and the way that every time a lyric came out her mouth it made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up, and gave him butterflies in his stomach. He had completely fallen for this girl.
"That's a game that we play at the end of the night. It's the same old story but you never get it right give it up."
As the girls sang the second chorus, by this time they had every one on their feet, dancing and clapping. Moose and Harrison where whooping and whistling up at the girls while Robbie was dancing awkwardly next to some cheerleaders.
Beck grinned as Jade belted out the last lyric to the song, every single syllable coming out perfectly. Everybody watching rose to their feet as the girls bowed and took in the applause. Beck grinned up at Jade and she looked at him giving him a small smile.
They walked off stage the applause slowly dying down as the girls approached the table again. Jade sauntered over to Beck with a smirk on her face, "So pretty boy, did you enjoy the show?" she questioned already knowing her answer.
Beck was about to reply when Harrison stepped in front of him and pulled Jade in, kissing her on the lips. "Talk about hot babe." He grinned kissing her again.
Becks fist clenched at his sides and he could feel his blood starting to boil. Tori must have noticed his angered expression as she spoke before he could say anything. "Foods here!" she grinned taking a seat at the table, followed by everyone else.
.
.
It was coming up to 11:30 and the gang was still dancing away at the Karaoke Dokie. Beck had tried to speak with Jade alone, but whenever he went over to talk to her she always had someone by her side.
Finally he spotted her dancing in the centre of the dance floor with Tori and Cat. There were two other guys that where dancing with them, however Jade seemed to be paying little attention to them as she was off in her own world.
Beck grinned walking over to her. Her eyes where closed as she swayed to the music waving her hands above her head.
"Having fun?" he smirked as she opened her eyes.
Jade nodded and continued dancing. Beck just watched her as she looked at him smiling, this girl had him wrapped around her finger. After contemplating it in his head a few times he finally built up enough courage and grabbed onto her hands lifting them to rest on his shoulders. He then placed his arms around her waist bringing her closer to him.
Jade raised both eyebrows, surprised. However didn't pull away from him, "Feeling confident tonight huh?"
Beck shrugged his shoulders and smirked, "Well it's not like you were going to resist this wonderful head of hair." He emphasised his point by running a slick hand through his brown locks.
Jade bit her lip, trying not to get too distracted by his action.
They carried on dancing for a while until the beginning of 'Juliet' started playing through the speakers. Beck grinned at Jade an idea sneaking its way into his head. Beck stepped back from Jade a little, causing her to give him a questioning glance. The first lyrics started playing as Beck started mouthing and singing along to the words.
Hey I've been watching you
Every little thing you do
Every time I see you pass
In my homeroom class, makes my heart beat fast
Beck was dancing and singing earning laughs from Jade as she watched him embarrass himself.
I've tried to page you twice
But I see you roll your eyes
Wish I could make it real
But your lips are sealed, that ain't no big deal
By this time Jade was in fits if giggles as Beck continued to sing. Tori and Cat had also stopped their dancing to watch Beck.
'Cause I know you really want me
I hear your friends talk about me
So why you trying to do without me
When you got me
Where you want me
The whole dance floor had gathered round Beck to watch him, everyone was laughing and clapping him on and Jade couldn't help but grin.
(Hey Juliet)
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
Maybe someday, you and me can run away
I just want you to know
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet
As the song started to finish everyone clapped and cheered for Beck, who was worn out by all his singing and dancing. After getting his breathe back, he looked up at Jade who was still smiling as she walked over to hug him. "You're an idiot." She whispered in his ear pulling back and laughing at him again.
She looked like she was about to say something more when her eyes drifted past Beck and to the bar. Her face fell and her eyes narrowed as she glared at what she was looking at.
Beck was confused as to what had made her mood go from 100 to 0 so he too looked behind him and to the bar. Becks eyes darkened too as he realized what had made her so angry. Sure enough there was Harrison laughing and talking to the blonde waitress from earlier. His hands where on her waist and she was whispering things in his ear her hands on his chest.
Cat and Tori were also looking and Tori was quick to speak up before Jade did anything drastic, "Jade don't okay? It's not worth it. It's getting late anyway, let's just go."
The waitress leaned up to kiss Harrison on the cheek and Jade snapped.
"Fuck that." Jade spat anger evident in her voice. She started to storm over to the two but Moose stepped in.
"Jade Tori's right, come on-"
"No!" she shouted pushing Moose out the way and stomping over in front of Harrison.
Harrison looked up with a shocked expression and quickly took his hands off the girl's waist. "Jade-"
"Don't Jade me you asshole! What the hell is going on here?"
Harrison sighed and spoke again, "Calm down! We weren't even doing anything, stop over reacting!"
"Over reacting! Yeah you're right I am, because it's not like I look over to see my boyfriend and this slut practically throwing herself all over him!" Jade's shouting was drawing a lot of attention from people dancing.
"Slut?!" The waitress spoke up stepping forward, "I don't know who you think you're talking too-"
"I know who the fuck I'm talking too" Jade said her voice getting dangerously low as she stepped in front of the waitress. "You pathetic whore. Thinking you can go around and throw yourself on other people's boyfriends. Now if I were you I would get the fuck out of here before my scissors find their way up your twig ass." Jade growled glaring at the girl. The blonde swallowed and stepped back before turning and leaving.
Jade looked once again to Harrison who sighed and reached out to grab her arm, however Jade pulled it back, "Babe, I'm sorry okay? I didn't mean to…I…" Harrison trailed off looking at the ground.
Jade rolled her eyes before taking some deep breaths her heart was racing a mile a minute and she needed to calm down. "Whatever, I'm going home." She said before storming out.
"Jade!" Harrison tried to run after her but Moose stopped him.
"Leave it man, you've done enough."
Harrison sighed again before nodding and sitting down. Cat and Tori both ran out after Jade and Beck was left standing there. He was so mad at what Harrison had done. He was about to say something, but Moose must have noticed so he spoke before Beck could make the situation any worse.
"Why don't you ride back with the girls? I'll take Harrison home now, so you might as well just go with them."
Beck nodded slowly still feeling like he should say something, yet at the same time he wanted to make sure Jade was okay. So he turned and walked out to find the three girls.
.
.
"Beck I've finished all my homework!" Tommy grinned running into the play room holding up his spelling sheet proudly. Beck looked up from the book he was reading and smiled.
"Well done kid. How did you do?" he asked as Tommy climbed up to sit next to him on the couch.
"Really well! It was suuuper easy."
Beck laughed, "Good job." He said giving him a high-five.
"Can we watch the movie now? Like you promised!" Tommy said reaching over to pick up the DVD of 'The Amazing Spider Man'.
"Sure can." Beck answered reaching down to put the movie in the flat screen TV.
After about half an hour of watching the movie Beck heard the door knock. "I want to get it!" Tommy screeched rushing off the couch and to the door, Beck following.
Tommy smiled once he opened it, "Harri!" he shrieked jumping into the boys arms.
"Ha ha, hey Tom." Harrison said lifting him up for a hug before setting him back down. "Your sister here?" he asked noticing Beck.
"Yeah, she's upstairs in her room."
"What are you doing here?" Beck asked stepping out to speak to Harrison, his eyes narrowing.
"What do you think genius, I'm here to see my girlfriend." Harrison shot back taking a challenging step in Beck's direction.
"Oh your girlfriend." Beck said chuckling, "because she sure didn't seem like your girlfriend when you were with that chick last night." He said raising an eyebrow.
"That's none of your fucking business!" Harrison shouted angrily. Tommy gasped.
"Harri! Don't cuss!"
Harrison frowned before walking up the stairs to Jade's room leaving the two boys. Beck sighed debating whether he should go after him, but decided to leave it.
"Come on lets get back to our movie." Tommy smiled walking back into the playroom.
.
.
Jade was sitting at her desk, drawing a sketch of the view from her window, when she heard a soft knock on her door. "Yeah?" she asked wondering who it could be.
"Can I come in?"
Jade rolled her eyes at the all too familiar voice, "Leave me alone Harri." Jade sighed going back to her drawing. Harrison completely ignored her orders however and pushed her door open walking over to her. "I said lea-"
"I know, I know." He pleaded, "but just hear me out." He asked raising a hopeful eyebrow. Jade sighed but didn't say anything, turning round to face him so he knew he had her attention.
He took a seat on her bed and looked at her, "I know I fucked up yesterday and I'm sorry for that. It was wrong for me to flirt with that waitress in front of you and I know that I took it too far. But when I saw you and Beck dancing together I got pissed off, you're my girlfriend and… you just seem close with that jerk, so I got jealous. I know that it was wrong and I'm so sorry baby." Harrison sighed looking up at Jade's guarded expression.
Her eyes softened at his apology, it was quite wrong for her to dance with Beck in front of him and she did feel bad. She sighed and walked over to sit in his lap. "You have nothing to worry about okay? Nothing's going on between Beck and I." Jade felt bad for lying, she really did. She had been telling herself that it truly was nothing going on between her and Beck, but when she was with him she felt… different. Like nothing she had ever felt before.
"You promise?" he asked wrapping his arms around her tightly. She nodded. "Okay." He said, "I love you." Jade just smiled and leaned in to kiss him. She had never told Harrison that she loved him back, because in reality love scared her and she didn't want to get hurt.
"So I'm forgiven?" he asked trailing kisses down to her neck.
Jade gave a small smile, "For now."
Harrison pulled her in, deeper into the kiss and twisted her body so she was straddling his waist. The kiss deepened as he slid his tongue along her bottom lip, she opened her mouth to let him in. His hand traveled up her back to pull off her shirt and they fell back onto the bed getting lost in each other…
.
.
Later that day, after Harrison had left to play golf with his father. Jade was once again working on her drawing when there was a knock on her door. "Come in." she said not bothering to look up.
In ran Tommy and Beck both of them walking over to her bed. "Hey." Beck smiled at her. She smiled back before Tommy spoke up.
"Jade will you play hide n' seek with us? Please!" Tommy asked taking a seat at the foot of her bed. Jade looked hesitant not really wanting to play a game for little kids.
"No Tommy, I'm not five years old." She said coldly going back to her drawing.
Tommy pouted and crossed his arms, "Please is way more fun with more than two people!"
"No."
"Please."
"No-"
"Come on Jade it will be fun." Beck cut in helping Tommy out. "He's been wanting to play all day."
"I don't care." Jade said looking up at Beck. "I'm in the middle of something." She stated going back to her drawing again.
"Jade please! I promise I won't bug you again today, if you just play a few rounds." Tommy was practically begging now and Jade couldn't help but give in.
"…Fine." She groaned, earning cheers from her brother and Beck. "You owe me." She said pointing a finger in Beck's direction as she stood up from the bed. Beck smirked but nodded his head.
"Okay Jade you're counting first." Tommy shrieked running out. Beck laughed and ran out after him.
Jade counted aloud up to 30 before roaming the house to look for the two boys. It didn't help that the house was so big so there were plenty of places for them to hide.
After 10 minutes she had finally found both of them their shoes popping out from underneath the curtain they were standing behind.
"Okay now it's my turn to count. Go!" Tommy shouted covering his eyes.
Beck quickly grabbed Jade's hand and pulled her along the corridor. "I have the perfect hiding spot!" Beck said as they approached a guest room door. Jade chuckled following him in.
"You're taking this way more seriously than any person our age should." She laughed as he walked over to a closet. He opened the door and looked inside. It was a large closet that was attached to the ground and stretched along almost the entirety of one wall. The clothes inside were packed neatly meaning there was a space for at least to bodies to fit in the lower left corner.
Beck climbed in and took a seat on the floor. Jade was still standing by the closet door watching with a raised eyebrow. "Do you seriously expect me to get in there?" She asked arms crossing across her chest.
Beck shrugged, "Come on just do it. The sooner you do the sooner this game is over and done with." He said matter-of-factly.
He did have a point. So after little hesitation Jade took a seat next to him on the floor of the closet. Beck reached out and closed the door leaving them in pitch black.
"I can't see anything." Beck said reaching his hand out but feeling it collide with something soft.
"Ow!" Jade shrieked, "you just hit me in the face!"
Beck stifled a laugh before pulling his phone out and putting on the torch. He set it on the floor and the two could see each other.
"Wow." Beck said smiling at Jade.
"What?"
"You're even prettier up close." He stated staring into her eyes. Jade smacked his chest playfully.
"God, you're such an idiot."
"God, you're such a beauty." Beck shot back earning him a shocked expression from Jade, yet even in the dark he could make out a blush beginning to creep its way onto her cheeks.
"Ooh, look at you Mr I-Can-Say-Anything-I-Want-When-I-Want."
Beck shrugged, if he was going to do what he was about to do he had to have as much confidence as ever.
"You know for someone who spent their first week working here with the lowest self-esteem I've ever witnesse-"
Beck cut Jade off by crashing his lips into hers. Jade was shocked at first and didn't react worrying Beck that she was going to pull away, before she relaxed and started to kiss him back.
His hand went to her cheek to bring her closer to him, while hers went to his hair. Jade bit down on his lip softly deepening the kiss. He pulled her closer to him taking her in.
"Found you!"
The two pulled away from each other as they flung apart to see Tommy standing in front of them a triumphant look on his face. "You know Beck you really shouldn't have a light on when you're trying to hide!" Tommy laughed.
Beck looked over at Jade who was biting her lip nervously. She looked at him before quickly standing, "I just remembered I was meant to be staying at Tori's tonight… bye." She said before quickly rushing out the room.
"Jade wait." Beck said, but she was already out the door before he could stop her. He ran a hand through his hair and sighed, "Shit."
