Blood Red Tear
"C-congratulations," Jade said hugging Tori back. Her eyes fell though and her smile disappeared. "You'll be great," she gave her hair a ruffle, something Jade did to bring a smile to Tori's face. Tori giggled and ran off to tell her other friends.
Beck was lounging on his locker and his eyes stayed locked on the beautiful goth. He watched as her face fell and she bit her lip hard. A drop of blood chased its way down her lip and Beck saw it as the tear she refused to let her eye shed. He watched her clench her fists then drop it and then clench them again. Her shoulders shook and so did her head.
Beck sighed before making his way towards the girl in the middle of the hall. He took her hand gently and led her to the janitor's closet. She didn't look up until she heard the door click closed.
"Tell me what's wrong," Beck said wiping a smudge of blood from her chin.
"I nothing I just like the play Uptown Downtown, too bad castings done," Jade mustered an actress's smile.
"Since you weren't here you and I can go and talk to Sikowitz and get him to audition you for it. It's worth a shot."
"No, no it's fine. If I missed it I missed it. Besides Tori's playing Penny and she'll be amazing."
"Ah so that's why, you wouldn't want to do it unless you got the role of Penny. But since your girlfriend got the role you'd feel guilty." Jade looked away from Beck and stared at the wall full of cleaning supplies. "You know I have a role in the play too and it happens to be the male lead. I'd much prefer it if you played the leading lady," he brushed his fingers threw her hair lightly.
"Stop," she shook his hand from her hair. "I- Tori got the role and I'm going to be supportive!" Jade rushed from the closet and ran smack into Tori. Both girls fell back and landed on their rear.
"What were you and Beck doing in the closet!" Tori yelled. "Why were you planning on taking my role from me?" her voice was sad.
"I'm not planning on taking it, I wasn't even going to try out."
"Good don't waste your time you'd never take the role from me. I'm a better actress, singer, and and everything! The only reason you're even at this school is because of me! If it weren't for me you wouldn't be here!"
"If you're so sure Jade can't take your role then let's go," Beck said pulling on Jade's arm. "We'll let Sikowitz decide if Jade is only here for you or not." Beck swept Jade into his arm and led her towards Sikowitz's room.
AN: Sorry this is one of my shorter chapters for this story. Review soon and I'll update just as quickly. Just wanna know what you guys think but should Jade get the role or not? I know what I'm leaning towards but let's see what you all say.
