So I'm warning you, this chapter bumps the rating to T. But you've survived abuse and kidnapping so I'm thinking you can survive this chapter. If you couldn't tell, I love creating drama. P.S, happy 2011!

Disclaimer: I don't own Victorious, I wish I was Dan Shneider's daughter just so I could inherit his amazing shows though.

"Jade!" Cat called as she ran up the stairs into my room. It was a funny call, a sort of half yell because both of the babies were asleep. She almost passed the door to my room, but grabbed its frame and pulled herself in. "Jade," She whispered in an anxious tone, "Beck's here. I didn't want to send him up because I heard your conversation with Tori. I'm just not sure if you want to start telling Beck all of these things. Within everything that happened between you in high school, and everything now, I'm just not sure if we can totally trust him." I was shocked at her sudden revelation, and as she paced nervously I felt something rise within me.

"Why can't I trust him, Cat? He's been a good father to Noah, and sure we had our problems but he always came back."

"That's the thing, Jade. He cheated on Tori with you, who's to say he won't cheat on you? My mom always said, 'Once a cheater always a cheater."

"Cat, he loves me! And what's this we? It's my decision as Noah's mom to figure this out. For once I don't need your help, I don't want your help, Cat. I'm sorry that my family isn't as perfect as yours."

"But Jade, I don't want you to get hurt, I'm not fabricating lies, what if he-" They were interrupted by the sound of footsteps, and then a knock on the oak door.

"Everything alright?" Beck walked into the room in his brand name clothes and picked up our son, rocking him and looking between myself and Cat. Cat rose from the bed and gave me one last, meaningful look.

"Just think about what I said, Jade." She left in a stage between angry and upset, and I spent the rest of the night with Beck in disarray, only thinking of what Cat said. Did she know something I didn't?

The next day, I was greeted by something different than the house's usual routine. I woke up and Noah was already up, cooing and looking up at the ceiling. He saw me and turned his father's beautiful brown eyes to me, reaching up to grab me. I picked him up and made my way downstairs, not bothering to check the time. When I got downstairs, Aiden and Robbie were on the couch, watching cartoons as two boys on a lazy Saturday. Throughout breakfast, there was a strong absence of Cat. The thing about her is that you always know when she's not there, her presence is just too strong to go unnoticed. I checked the time and was shocked to see it was already 10 in the morning.

"Robbie! Where's Cat? We're supposed to be at Stroller Strides in a half an hour!" Stroller Strides is a class we take together, a mommy and baby fitness class. Basically, we jog around town with our babies in their strollers. It may sound dumb, and I was planning on staying home on our first class a month ago, but the experience is surprisingly rewarding. There was a pause and I was about to repeat myself when Robbie came into the kitchen. He pulled a chair out from the table and put his coffee on the table.

"She left. She's still…ticked off about yesterday." He looked down at his cup and traced its blue rim awkwardly.

"I still don't know what I did, but whatever." I sounded like I did as a teenager, shrugging and prodding Noah so he would eat a bit more.

"Cat told me what happened." He suddenly looked up and his tone changed as the hush it carried evaporated into the air between us. "I think she's right."

"You only think that because she probably only told you her side of the story." It was true. I've had way too much happen to know that the story's only as good as the person who tells it, and the perspective they're telling it from.

"No, she told me everything last night. She's worried about you. She barely slept last night. She didn't think I noticed because she pretended to be asleep before I was, but I did. As soon as I 'fell asleep,'" he put air quotes on the last two words, "She started to pace and get really antsy. She says she's fine but she's not. I don't know if she has any reason to believe anything bad about Beck, but hear me out here. You should take your own advice and hear her side of the story instead of making assumptions." He got up from the table the same as he sat, and rinsed his coffee cup in the sink, proceeding to join his son as the flute introduced Spongebob's fifth episode of the morning.

When Cat came home from Stroller Strides, I motioned for her. I needed to talk to her. Something about Robbie's tone, his change in attitude, had finally gotten to me. Usually, Robbie and I were only cordial to each other, so our talk was a definite addition to the change in pace of the morning. When we were in the sun room, Cat shut the French doors behind us and turned to me, a venomous look in her eyes.

"What?" She sat on the couch and I followed, sitting next to her.

"Just tell me why you think he's cheating on me." She turned and mumbled something inaudible, her familiar red velvet locks covering her face.

"I didn't hear you."

"Because he's done it before, okay?" She yelled, uncovering her red face.

"What do you mean?" She turned away from me and I grabbed her shoulder, trying to coax her out of this unfamiliar stage she was in. "How do you know?"

"I know because… it was me he was trying to…let me start from the beginning." Cat turned back to me and I braced myself for what was to come. "Before I start, just remember this was a long time ago, I'm sure he didn't mean anything to you by it."

"So…it was on me." A simple three letter word summed up my fear.

"Yes." She sat back on the couch and began her story. "We were Freshman, I think. Freshman at Hollywood Arts. You and Beck had been dating about a year I think, and it was after Christmas break."

"Christmas break I was in Hawaii."

"You were. You were still in Hawaii when this happened. You were there two weeks after break, right?" I confirmed the fact and she continued. "Well, it was a Saturday afternoon and Beck was hanging out with his friends on Friday. He came over to my house unexpected and we hung out for a little bit, and when I asked him how his friend's house was, he just shrugged. I asked him to explain and he started saying all these things about how he was the only virgin left in the group and he was really pissed. I told him not to be so upset about it and just wait for marriage like I was going to, but he said he was sick of being made fun of. All of a sudden-" she stopped, as if she wasn't sure how to go on. I nodded, trying to get her to continue. A lump had formed in my throat as I had a clue of what was going to happen. "I lost my virginity to a man I didn't love, didn't have any feelings for. I didn't want to. I was…" She started to cry. "It's not his fault, it's really not his fault. Don't hurt him, Jade. He was young and it was just peer pressure. I don't want him to get any crap for it."

"What did he do, Cat?"

"I woke up, and he was gone. He raped me."

Don't say I didn't warn you! I know I'm making Beck the bad guy, but I don't know, I guess I just always saw him as kind of a playboy just because he's so hot and he could probably get anyone he wanted.

Review! At least do it for poor Cat!

You would think she's not my favorite with everything I do to her, but she is :)
