As the days got longer, and Cat's stomach got bigger, summer began in full swing in New York City. Friday nights began fun nights for each member of the gang. Beck became Cat's boyfriend, Robbie held Jade in secret and, to no surprise, Andre began to take Tori on dates. One particular Friday, Beck lay with Cat pillowing her head with his arm as they watched Titanic. Cat jumped up, putting her hand to her twelve week pregnant belly.

"What's wrong?"

"The baby moved!" she yelped with excitement.

"It did?" he asked, almost as excited as Cat, putting his hand to her stomach. Under his fingertips, Beck could feel something moving inside the small girl. "Whoa. That's amazing." Cat looked up to him, smiling widely.

"Beck, I know this is a lot to ask, but…ummm…would you please father my baby?"

Beck looked at her shocked, slightly unsure of what to say. Cat was his girlfriend, but to father a baby that wasn't his? Not to mention his age. It was a lot to ask. Beck really did love Cat, though. He would do anything for her, and this would classify as anything. Finally, Beck smiled. "Of course I will," he said, kissing her lips. She smiled even bigger than before. "Wow, this feels weird. I'm going to be a dad." He kissed Cat again, sitting up and setting her on his lap. The kiss grew more passionate. "I love you, Cat."

"You have no idea, Beck."

Jade sat in Robbie's lap at her apartment, her legs wrapped around his waist, kissing him harder than she ever had. She pulled away for a moment, looking deep into Robbie's light blue eyes.

"Robbie…I think…I think I love you."

"I love you too, Jade."

Jade went back to his lips. After a moment Robbie pulled away, looking slightly sad.

"What's wrong?"

"It's just…nothing. It's nothing," he said, trying to pull her back to him. She pushed him away.

"Robbie, what's wrong. You can tell me anything. You know that, right?"

"Of course. It's…Jade, I don't want to hide our relationship anymore. You tell me you love me, and yet you never go out on a date with me."

"Robbie, do you have any idea how much shit we would get if we came out saying we loved each other? It's better this way."

"Jade, I can't do this. I love you, and I can't keep this a secret, anymore. I love you Jade, I really do, but either we go out together, or I go out alone."

"Robbie, you can't do this."

"I can and will. Jade, go on a date with me, it's that easy. Tell people where we are going. Let everyone know that you really love me. Will you?"

"Robbie, I just can't. You know how bad I am at taking shit."

"Then I guess I'll be leaving. Goodbye Jade," he said, pulling her apart from him. He walked to the door, putting his hand on the rusty handle, looking back to her.

"Robbie, please."

"Will you go on a date with me?"

"Robbie, we have a great thing going. Why would you ruin it?"

"I'm not, Jade. You are." He walked out the door, leaving a speechless Jade sitting on the couch. How could he leave her like that? After all this time, he could easily walk out the door. After Jade confessed that she actually loved him. That's when the pain hit. It seemed like someone had ripped her heart right out of her chest. She put her hand to the hole gaping open. She began to cry, realizing it was all her fault. She just couldn't keep her fucking life in order. Another great thing she let walk right out of her life. First Beck, then Cat and her baby, now Robbie. She got up, ripping pictures of the wall, throwing them against the wall, the glass shattering around her. Why did she have to be such a fucking idiot. She ran into the bathroom, pulling out Cat's old medication. She spilled it onto the counter, staring at it. She was going to do it. She had thought about it so many times before, the cuts on her wrist a sign of it, but this time, she knew it was what she needed to do. Unless…she could get Robbie back. "You damn pussy!" she yelled in the mirror. "Just kill yourself already! You're alone, nobody loves you, you stupid bitch!" When a thought hit her. Robbie just told her he did. "He doesn't, or else he would have stayed. The mirror reflection came to life, talking to her like any other person would have. "You can still try." "No, I want to do this." "Think about Cat, imagine where she would be without you." "The little cunt has Beck now." "But didn't Beck lead you to Robbie?" The image melted away, leaving Jade staring at herself again. She looked down at the medicine. She couldn't do it. She had to get Robbie back.

Beck finally pulled Cat apart from him as a knock came to the door. She stayed in bed as he answered the door for their roommate. Robbie came in without a hello, sitting down on the couch, looking like he was about to cry.

"Robbie, what's wrong?" Beck asked, Cat coming out of his bedroom as he shut the door.

"It's Jade."

"I thought you said you kissed her twice and stopped," Cat said, sitting down next to him.

"I lied," he answered bluntly. "We've been together since that night, and she's afraid to tell anyone. Now she has nothing to tell anyone. I walked out."

Beck pursed his lips, taking a seat on the other side of Robbie. "Robbie, you can't worry about a girl."

Robbie jumped up, looking back at the two. "You don't understand!" There was a knock at the door, and before the couple could jump up, Robbie ran, looking into the peephole. He opened the door to see Jade, and quickly walked outside.

"Ummm…I think I'm going back into the bedroom," Cat said quietly, getting up from the couch. Beck got up as well, placing his hand gently on her shoulder.

"You know you can't hide from her forever, baby."

Cat looked down. "I know, but she doesn't want anything to do with me…I think this is best." She looked about ready to burst into tears, so Beck followed her back into the bedroom.

"Jade, what are you doing here?"

"We need to talk."

"There is nothing to say."

"There is plenty to say. Robbie, I can't lose you."

"Jade, you don't understand. You already have."

"No!" she screamed. Tears poured down her face. "I can't. When I told you I loved you I meant it. When you left, I can't describe how I felt. It wasn't good. Robbie, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you please forgive me?"

Robbie smiled nervously, growing closer to her. He put one hand on her waist, the other on her cheek. "On one condition."

"Anything," she whispered.

"Marry me."

Jade smiled. "Okay." She jumped into his arms, kissing him sweetly.
