Chapter 2

Hi guys, here's the next chapter. It's probably not going to be as long as the last one, I don't think so anyway.

Jade's POV

I groaned as I heard the alarm clock go off.

"Beecckkk. Make it stop. Why is it on? It's Saturday," I mumbled against my pillow. He didn't do anything. I huffed and got up.

"I swear, Beck, you know you shouldn't-" I stopped and remembered what happened, reality crashing down on me like a thousand punches in the stomach. My heart twisted when I realised how much had changed, in just a matter of 10 seconds. 10 fucking seconds. I turned around to notice that Cat wasn't sleeping. She's probably in the bathroom or downstairs; she's a morning person, whereas I definitely am not. I needed coffee.

I went to my bathroom and showered. I wore simple clothes; a dark purple top with a black melting heart and black sweatpants; not too fancy, and not up to my usual standards. I didn't bother wearing make-up. I didn't see the point of doing anything anymore, ever since… the incident. It hurt, but I refused to cry. I'm not shedding one more tear on him. I knew that was a lie. I bet in a few hours, I'd be breaking down, just like yesterday. I couldn't help it though, I just loved him too much, even if I may not show it all the time.

"Jade! You're awake!" Cat shrieked.

"No kidding, Cat," I wasn't as mean to Cat as I would have been, and I think we all know why. Her face softened.

"How are you feeling?" she asked, in a much softer tone.

"Just peachy," I replied, brushing my tangled hair. She was silent for a while. Once I had finally finished getting all the knots off, I looked around for my boots.

"Ugh, where are my boots, Cat?" I said, annoyed. I hate it when my things are in places they shouldn't be.

"Um… you left it at Beck's," she replied. I froze.

"Oh," I responded after a few seconds of silence. I wore my black flats instead and made my way down the spiral staircase, Cat trailing behind. My house was actually quite big, but I hate boasting about my family's wealth, so not much people knew. I made myself coffee and Cat and I toast. Yes, I made her some. Deal with it. Once we had eaten, Cat suddenly said,

"Come on, get up and get dressed. We're going out," I looked at her.

"Um, where exactly?" I said, quizzically.

"To Beck's," she replied nonchalantly, getting up to clear the table. I did a double-take. Is she crazy? Did she get hit in the head or something? Does she not remember I broke up with him less than 24 hours ago?

"What? Cat, I'm not going there. Do you not remember what happened? I'm kind of planning to never go there again, and doing that isn't really going to help," I said, truthfully. I honestly didn't want to go to Beck's RV. It would bring back too many memories.

"You have to silly, there are so many things of yours there," she said. I could tell she didn't want to act too sympathetic because first, I hate sympathy and secondly, if she did, I would probably break down again.

"He can have them," I mumbled.

"Jade! You have more of your things at his place rather than in your own! If you avoid him, it'd show how weak you're being. And I thought Jade West 'doesn't do' weak," she challenged.

"Yeah, but he's Beck. It's completely different," I said, but I knew I would give in soon.

"I know, Jade. But don't you want to show him that he doesn't make a difference to you. And even if he does, you have to show him that you can live without him!" she encouraged. I guess she did have a point. I sighed.

"Fine, but you're buying me another coffee on the way there," I said. I went upstairs to go and get dressed. She pouted.

"And make sure you don't look any different than you usually do! That will show that he doesn't affect you!" she called, as I was on my way upstairs. I nodded, she was right.

After about 45 minutes, I was ready to go. I grabbed the necklace Beck and I both had and traced the engraving. I gave a small, sad smile as one tear slid down my face. I wiped it away, and went back into the bathroom if my make-up had been smudged. I put the necklace in the pocket of my black skinny jeans and went down the stairs, my second favourite black combat boots making a 'thudding' sound from every step. Cat was also ready, a roll of black bags in her hand and her car keys in the other. How she passed her drivers exam was still a mystery to everyone else, but me. She isn't really as ditzy as she seems, although she still is quite ditzy…

"Let's go!" she said, jumping on the stop then dragging my hand and pulling me out of the front door. I slammed it shut and locked it. My dad was away on a business trip and my brother was probably over at his friend's house. I sent him a quick text saying when I'll be back. I was actually quite glad my dad was away, because I know that he would definitely say something about Beck and I breaking up. He didn't like Beck much, and wasn't the nicest dad in the world. He wasn't abusive, although he did slap me once or twice when he was drunk, but that's the furthest he's ever gotten. But it's pretty obvious he pretty much hates me because of my gothic personality and 'stupid' and 'hopeless' dreams, as he would say. My mother… she… died when I was about 6. I didn't remember much, but she is still one of the few people I love with all my heart. Another was Beck. My heart twisted painfully. I sighed. Getting over the ones you love isn't as easy as people say it is. Ugh, I hate love.

We stopped at the coffee café and Cat brought me coffee, just like she promised. I glared at the lady at the front for no particular reason, only because I felt like it. Deal with it.

We got to her car and drove to Beck's place. It was ghostly silent so I decided to put on some music. I hated radio channels because of all the stupid people talking in between. I plugged my pear phone in the car's radio and put my music on shuffle. I froze when I realised what song came on.

Thinking Back When We Got Together

In Our Hearts We Were Saying Forever

So In Love, Boy We Were So in Love

I didn't know why I didn't take the song off straight away. I kept on listening to it, acting like it didn't make a difference to me, when in fact I was literally about to bawl my eyes out. I couldn't believe how much this song described my current situation.

Jealousy wasn't what we wanted, we broke up

And when you looked into my eyes I should've spoke up

And held you near and now I'm alone

And here it comes again

Cat looked at me, expecting a reaction I stayed still, almost not breathing as I listened to the lyrics.

Cause I remember ev-er-y word that you said

It all just keeps spinning around in my head

"I'm not happy with our relationship!"

"I have a car"

"I'm tired of fighting"

All those things he said to me, they came back, and it hurt like shit, but I still didn't move.

But it don't matter what I try to do

I keep on forgetting to forget about you.

And I don't wanna think about you baby so much

All the things we didn't know, the way that we touched

Just when I think about someone new

I keep on forgetting to forget about you.

Forget about you, forget about

Watch me turn around

Forgetting to forget about you

Forget about me and you

I would be crazy to say that we were perfect

And sometimes I wondered if it was worth it

But now I see how good you were for me

And every time I drive by your apartment

I get this overwhelming urge to walk in

And see your face and to be in that place all over again

Cause I remember ev-er-y word that you said

It all just keeps spinning around in my head

But it don't matter what I try to do

I keep on forgetting to forget about you

And I don't want to think about you baby so much

All the things we didn't know, the way that we touched

Just When I Think About Someone New

I Keep On Forgetting To Forget About You

Forget About You, Forget About

Watch Me Turn Around

Keep forgetting to forget about you

Forget About Me and You

The Way We Laughed, the Way We Kissed

I Never Thought That I Would Miss

All the Things I Used To Complain About You

The Football Games, the Hometown Friends

I'm Just Glad to See it End

But Tell Me Why I Feel So Alone Without You

Ooo Oh, Oooh, Yeah,

Here It Comes Again

Cause I Remember Every Word That You Said

It All Just Keeps Spinning Around In My Head

But It Don't Matter What I Try To Do

I Keep On Forgetting To Forget About You

And I Don't Want To Think About You Baby So Much

All The Things We Did And The Way That We Touched

Just When I Think About Someone New

I Keep On Forgetting To Forget About You

Cause I Remember Every Word That You Said

It All Just Keeps Spinning Around In My Head

But It Don't Matter What I Try To Do

I Keep On Forgetting To Forget About You

Forget About You, Forget About

Watch Me Turn Around

Keep forgetting to forget about you

Forget About Me And You

I can't forget about you…

(A/N: the song's called Keep forgetting Jojo. It's quite old but I LOVE IT. And I know all the lyrics don't match, but why don't we just ignore that? :P)

When the song ended, I just stayed like that. 'No, Jade, you can't cry. You're not allowed to cry over him' I kept telling myself.
I looked at Cat, she was looking at me, while trying to drive. When she came to a red light, she stopped the music, and went back to driving when the light went green, without uttering a single word. We got to Beck's soon after the song ended and got out. We knocked on his door, well more like Cat did, and I stayed behind trying to hide myself.

The door opened, revealing Beck's mom.

"Oh, hi Cat, Beck's in his RV, so you can- Oh Jade! Hi. I didn't see you there. Didn't you and beck…" she trailed off. She looked at me startled.

"Yeah, I'm here to get my stuff from his RV," I said. She knew how close Beck and I were, so she gave me a sympathetic look. Ugh sympathy. She was acting as if I couldn't live without Beck. But it's true, a voice in my head said. I knew it was true, but she didn't need to know that. I pushed past her, Cat following my lead, after saying hi to Beck's mom. I actually didn't mind his mom, and I think she kind of liked me, despite what usual mothers would think of a half gothic girl with tattoos and piercings.

I made it into his back yard and froze. I turned behind me to look at Cat, who gave me a smile and said,

"Well, come on, then,"

I decided to knock on his RV rather than how I usually opened it; by whacking the lock and breaking the door open. He opened the door, obviously not expecting me. He froze when he saw me, and I did the same. We stared into each other's eyes for a bit. Man, had I missed his soft, brown eyes. He had a towel around his neck, with sweatpants and a wife beater on, showing off his muscles. I forced myself to not look at them. Stop it, Jade. He's not yours anymore, I inwardly said to myself.

"Jade?" he said, startled. I mean how often is it that you break up with your girlfriend of 3 years, only to see her back at your place in the morning, the day after?

"I'm here to get my stuff," I said, pushing past him, again, Cat trailing behind me. She gave him a glare, to show that she was still mad at him. It was totally unlike Cat to glare at anyone, but I guess she really is mad at them, especially Beck. He stood there awkwardly, rubbing his neck, while I pointed at all the things that belonged to me, which were like, most of the stuff there. Once we were done, Cat turned around and walked out of the RV, before giving me a look, meaning come on. I gave her a look saying in a second. Once Cat was out of the RV, with the black bag full of my things I turned to Beck.

"Jade, listen I-" he started but I cut him off. I had to put up my mean façade, but couldn't.

"Save it, Beck," I said in a hushed tone. He sighed.

"But Jade-" he was cut off again by my finger gently put across his lips. I took his hand and put the necklace from my pocket in it and closed his fingers around it. I stared at his eyes, and said,

"I needed to give you this. I hope you have a nice life," I walked out of there as fast as possible, before he could say anything. I started crying silently and aggressively wiped my tears away. Where the heck do all these tears come from? I saw Cat walking towards the house, to Mrs Oliver. I simply walked away from them and got into the car. No tears, no tears, no tears, I kept telling myself. I waited for Cat to finish talking, which wasn't for very long. As soon as she got in, I sped away from his house.

Beck's Short POV

I looked down at my hand to see our necklace. It hurt, knowing that I no longer was hers, and she no longer was mine, all because of me and my fucking stubbornness. Jade giving me this necklace clearly meant that she was over me. I slid down the wall, holding the necklace so tight it hurt. I needed to punch something. I'm not usually the violent type, but I was just so angry. Not at Jade, but at myself. It was my entire fault. I'm such a dick.

Cat's short POV

I walked out of Beck's RV. I closed the door, but leant slightly against it. I know it was wrong to eaves drop on something so private, but I couldn't help it.

"Jade, listen I-" I heard him say.

"Save it, Beck," was Jade's reply.

He tried to say something again, but was cut off, and followed again by Jade saying

"I needed to give you this. I hope you have a nice life," I walked away quickly, because I knew she would come out soon. I was almost by Mrs Oliver when Jade brushed passed me and out of the house.

"She really is hurt, hm?" I heard Mrs Oliver say.

"Yeah, but I'm sure they'll work something out, or at least stay friends." I said, but I didn't want to think of Beck and Jade only as friends, because I knew they could never be 'just friends'. I was about to go on about another story about my brother, but I stopped myself. I needed to get to Jade.

"I need to go now, bye-bye," I said to Beck's mom.

"Goodbye Cat, and do come over soon," she said. I nodded and smiled my usual smile at her, then turned and walked away. I saw Jade sitting in the car, motionless. I got in the passenger seat and she drove away from their home without a word. She drove us home and we both got out. I needed to do something about Beck and Jade, so after about 5 minutes I told Jade that I had a text from my mum about my brother. I lied to Jade, but I knew I would make it up to her afterwards. I drove home and went up in my lovely, pink room.

This was honestly getting ridiculous. They still both evidently loved each other. I decided then and there. I was going to get Beck and Jade back together, no matter what. But I needed someone's help. Robbie.

I got my phone out and dialled Robbie's number. He picked up almost straight away.

"Hi, Cat!" said Robbie. I smiled; I really did love his voice. I heard Rex say something in the background, but couldn't catch on to what he said.

"Hi Robbie. Listen: You know Beck and Jade clearly love each other, right?" I heard him make a sound of agreement, so I carried on, "and they need to get back together. But I can't do that on my own, so I need your help," I said.

"They definitely need to get together! They belong together! So, anyway, sure, but what are we going to do?"

"Don't worry, I have a plan," I smiled.
