A/N- Sorry for the long wait. I just finished watching The Walking Dead Season Finale, and for some reason I had a whole lot of inspiration for this story once it was done. :D

~I got alot of anonymous reviews and since you're anonymous I can't reply to you via PM message so I just wanted to say Thanks here.

THANKYOU! :D

Shall we go on with it? WE SHALL!

Disclaimer- I don't own Victorious or iCarly, but I own a really cool bike. Does that count?

~Jade POV~

I woke up about an hour ago. I was just so tired last night that I didn't even put my things away. This T-Bo guy didn't even know me, but he's letting me live with him? I mean, like what if I was a serial killer? Which I'm not! Unless stomping on ants is considered murder. The room I was in was bright orange and almost every piece of furniture was either blue or purple. It was like a piece of artwork. I put my pictures up first, I made sure of that. I looked at the picture of me and Cat, and I just couldn't help but want her here badly. She understood me, even though I treated her like shit. Her mom knew my mom and they were best friends. They were so close that my mom had declared Cat's mom my godmother. I could have been living with her by now, but I'm too scared to say anything about my dad and Kate.

I finished putting away my things around 8:50 am, and soon after T-Bo told me it was almost opening time. I put on the orange shirt T-Bo gave me, put my hair up, and I was ready for the day.

"Okay Jade, today you just have to take peoples orders and tell them to Josh over there and he'll make the smoothies." T-Bo told me.

"Okay." I replied.

As the day went by, customers came and go, there was one girl that reminded me of Barbie but only because of her rude attitude.

It was 1:45, so that meant my shift was over. I had no friends to hang out with, so I decided to just stay and clean. I was wiping down one of the tables when suddenly I heard a familiar voice. I turned my head ever so slightly only to see Riley sitting and talking on the phone. I don't know why I was so attracted to him, but I was. He was nothing like Beck. Riley was something new.

I tried to go unnoticed because of how awkward things between us are, but of course I failed.

"Jade?" I heard him say. My back was facing him so he couldn't see my face, but I knew it was red. I turned around.

"Riley?" I asked pretending not to recognize him.

He smiled at me and said yeah. I smiled back. "So you work here?" He said getting up out of his seat.

"Yep." I replied as I was twirling my fingers. I only did that when I was nervous, like guy nervous.

"Listen I'm sorry about Diana, she has jealousy issues." He said to me.

"It's fine. Things like that don't hurt me. " I said to him.

"Really?" He asked me sarcastically.

What was he trying to say?

"I have to go." I said as I quickly walked up the stairs to my new room.

Snap out of it Jade! You know nothing about him! How can you like him so fast?

I know why I'm falling so quickly though. I'm desperate. I just want someone to hold me and care about me.

I changed into my fishnet stocking, my black skirt and dark blue long sleeve shirt. I looked into the mirror. Was what my dad and Kate said true?

Was I just dirty and ugly? I know that I shouldn't believe them, but now when I look into the mirror I don't know what I see.

~Sam POV~

I heard yelling last night. I knew it was coming from Jades apartment, but should I have done something? I know whats happening to her, but I don't say anything. That made me stop and think. Why is Jade protecting them? Why won't she say something? But also, why didn't I say something about what happened to me? We're both just scared.

I walked into my kitchen and opened the fridge. Used condom In the fridge. That's a new one. Last week it was a used tampon. The things my mom do when shes drunk are just disgusting.

I closed the fridge, and rested on it. What was the point of that? It's never going to change. Evan only feeds himself and my mom. he obviously doesn't care for me so whats the point of me looking. I left the apartment slamming the door hoping to wake my mom.

I knocked on Jades door.

A couple minutes later Kate opened it.

"Hi. Is Jade home?" I asked.

Kate smiled. " No she's staying with a friend. Who are you?" Kate asked me.

"I'm Sam. Can you please just tell her I stopped by next time you see her?" I asked.

"Sure honey." Kate said and then shut the door.

That was not the Kate I heard and witnessed. She was being so polite. Weird.

I needed to talk to Jade. Now.

I decided to walk around Seattle and look for her. What friends did Jade have? She moved down here last week.

~Jade POV~

I didn't know where I was. I still had to get used to these streets. I guess that was what I doing. I thought about how many months till school started. It was only July, so I had time, but it won't be July forever.

I was about to cross the street when suddenly I was met with those same blue eyes.

"Sam?" I asked.

"Jade?" She said me.

I was happy to see her, I needed to apologize to her.

"Wow you actually said my real name." Sam said jokingly.

"I'm really sorry." I said, ignoring her joke.

"Its okay." Sam replied.

Was it? I don't think it would ever be okay. I have this problem of judging people too fast, and it makes me give them the wrong impression , but I was just so confused that day so I left. But that was no reason to ignore her and avoid her. Was it because I thought she was gay?

"Was it because you thought I was gay?" Sam asked me.

She read my mind.

" I guess so. I was scared that you would get feelings for me in that way, and I was jumping to conclusions and I got overwhelmed so I left and avoided you." I explained to her.

it was silent between us now.

" So do you wanna talk about it?" I asked her.

"It's a long story." She said.

I grabbed her arm and started pulling her towards the Groovy Smoothie.

"I've got plenty of time." I said.

~Sam POV~

I'm guessing the yelling I heard last night led to Jade being kicked out. I liked the room she had above the Smoothie. It was cute.

There something in the corner of it that I had never seen before. A guitar?

"Don't touch it!" Jade yelled.

She scared the hell out of me.

She started to walk towards it. "Sorry It's just that it was my moms and it's special to me.

"Can you play it?" I asked. "Yeah, a little." She replied. "Can I hear?" I asked.

"I don't really like to sing in front of people." She replied.

" I heard you already though. Remember?"

"Oh yeah." She said as she looked down.

It wasn't really a day I liked to remember either.

"Oh you think that you know me. know me. That's why I'm leaving you lonely. Lonely. Well baby you don't know a thing about me. You don't know a thing about me. "She sang.

Her voice was outstanding. Even better than before.

I sat down onto her bed.

"So you wanna tell me about the thing with Carly?" Jade asked me suddenly.

By the time I was done explaining it to her, I felt so much better. It was like a burden off my chest. I was happy but Jade wasn't.

"Jade? Whats wrong?" I asked her.

She blinked sadly, but then quickly smiled. "Nothing. I'm fine."

She was clearly not fine. She was lying. Did something happen to her?

"My dad." She whispered.

Why was I not shocked?
