Chapter 15

I Need a Break

[Beck's POV]

Monday Morning

"Hello, how may I help you?" A lady at the front desk asked as she looked at me with dreamy eyes.

"Yes, can you point me the way to Ms. Ross's office please. I have an appointment with her this morning."

"Oh?" She lifted a brow. "Let me give her a call." She picked up her phone and hit around three numbers before she held up a finger and winked at me.

Oh god…

"Yes Ms. Ross…..yes I have Beck Oliver here in front. He says he has an appointment with you…..yes…..yes he is…..alrighty I'll send him right in." With that she hung up the phone.

"Alright Mr. Oliver just walk through those double doors and her office is the first one on the right." She smiled as she as she bit the bottom of her pen.

I nodded. "Thank you."

"Anytime…" She said in a seductive manner.

I rolled my eyes as I kept walking.

KNOCK, KNOCK

"Come in!"

I slowly opened the door and poked my head in to see Laura smiling at her desk. "Come on in Mr. Oliver."

I nodded as I walked all the way in and closed the door behind me. "I want to thank you for trying to work a deal with me."

She just smiled as gestured for me to have a seat in front of her desk.

"Did you bring any of your new work with you today?"

"Oh I did, I did." I said as I took the small bag off my shoulder and started to retrieve my new script. I put it on her desk before sliding it over to her. She put on small reading glasses as she scanned over it while is at with my hands crossed.

"Mmm…."

"You uh….you like it?" I asked as I sat up at little more.

"I do like it Beck. I love it." She said as she stood up with it still in her hands. She walked slowly around her desk and over to me and that's when I noticed she didn't have on any bottoms. Just some panty hose and I immediately stood up and backed away.

"Laura, what are you doing?" I asked as she slowly walked closer to me.

"Beck….stop acting as if you don't want it."

I swallowed hard. "I don't. I mean….I want my script to turn into films that's it."

She backed me into a wall before I felt her hot breath on my neck.

"It's just one little favor baby." She said as her hand made it way to my hair.

I swallowed hard. "How about a kiss? And we'll go from there?"

"Laura…Laura you're crazy. I have a wife and kids. I'm not doing this with you, I'm not."

She gave a small chuckle as she kissed my neck and that's when I pushed her away from me.

"Laura! Stop!"

She sighed as she put her hand to her head. "Oh god what am I doing? Beck….I'm sorry."

I didn't say anything as I stared at her face.

"You know what. This is so…rude and an inappropriate thing for me to do. I guess since I lost my husband I've been just….crazy. I'm sorry." She walked over back behind her desk.

"How about we start over and you come in next month. I'm sorry."

I just nodded. What do I say?

"I'll email you the new appointment time okay? I'm sorry once again."

I nodded again as I walked over grabbed my bag and script before heading out of the office and out to my car.

"God what the hell am I supposed to tell Tori?"

I sat back for a moment.

"I just won't…it's not serious right? I mean I didn't come onto her. So I didn't do anything wrong. Tori doesn't need to worry about this. I love her." I said to myself as I started my car.

Besides what Tori doesn't know won't hurt her.

[Jade's POV]

Friday Night

"No! I don't know Jade!" Cat cried as I threw her to the floor.

"Stop all that crying! I told you crying is for fucking babies!"

Just a few moments ago I looked in Cats phone to see an unknown number saying "Hey Cat, Missed you!" with a heart beside it. I don't know who the hell sent her this and she's acting like she doesn't know either. I'm not hearing that! She's going to tell me if I have to beat it out of her!

"Who was it!?" I asked for the millionth time as I yanked her off the floor by her shirt.

"Jade I swear I don't know!" She cried loudly before I smacked her harder.

"Tell me now! Stop lying to me!"

"I don't know! I don't know!"

She screamed as I threw her to the floor again and kicked her twice in the stomach before walking over to our dresser as she cried.

I reached my hand to the back before pulling out a pack of matches before walking back over to her and sitting on the floor beside her.

"I'm giving you one more chance Cat. Tell me who it fucking was."

She didn't answer this time. She just sat in a ball crying loudly as she held her stomach before I climbed on top of her and flipped her over. I unbuttoned her shorts and slid them down slightly before I lit a match.

"You want this Cat?" I said as I held it above her face.

"Jadee! Nooooo! Please I swear to God I don't know who it was! I don't! If I knew the number would be saved Jade I love you please believe me!"

"I don't." I said as I took the match and held it too the bare skin of her bikini line.

She let out a piercing scream in which her voice gave out at the very tip before she started screaming and crying again and that's when I snapped back to reality.

My eyes widen as I removed the match from her skin. My heart started to beat out of control and tears started to fill my eyes. "Cat…."

She kept crying loudly as I stood up and ran to the bathroom. I wetted a cold rag before running back to her and putting it over the small burn I made.

"Ahhh! Jade stop that hurts!" She screamed as she tried to get away.

"Cat…no Cat! I didn't…I didn't mean to hurt you! I…ahhh god I'm sorrryyyy!"

"Jade just…leave me alone please!" She cried as she sat up in a ball.

"Cat, Cat I…."

"Leave Jade! Please just leave!"

"Cat-"

RING, RING, RING, RING, RING

I wiped my tears as I grabbed my phone. "What?"

"So my car won't start. Get me." Isis said through the phone.

I sighed. "Where the hell are you?"

"Monica's. She doesn't live far okay."

"What's wrong with your car?"

"I don't know!"

"Text me the address I'll be there soon. Bye."

With that I hung up the phone.

"That was Isis." I said as I wiped more of my tears. "Her car broke down. We have to get her."

"You."

"You what?"

"You go get her. I'll…I'll stay here." Cat said as her crying was coming to a cease.

I nodded as I crawled over to her. I gave her a kiss on her head. "I'm sorry Cat. I love you. I do."

"I love how you show that Jade."

"Cat-"

"-Go get our daughter. I'll be here when you get back." She said as she wiped more tears.

She nodded as I stood up to leave and good thing Italy and Ikenzie were gone to a movie because there was no way I could deal with them bursting in our room at this moment.

Especially Ikenzie...

[Isis's POV]

"You think it can be fixed?" I asked with my arms crossed as Monica stood beside me as her dad looked over my car.

"Ahhh, yeah I can fix it." Beck said as he closed the hood.

"How much will you charge?"

"Nan, I'll do it. No charge." He smiled.

"Hey, did you guys see what's wrong with the car?" Tori asked as she walked down the driveway.

"Yeah I can fix it." Beck said as he placed a small kiss on Tori's lips.

"Are your parents coming to get you?" Tori asked.

I nodded. I hope Jade better not bring Cat….please, please don't bring Cat….

It would be so awkward for Cat to come with Jade. Then her parents have to see my parents are lesbians. I mean it's all good, it's just….embarrassing sometimes…

As if on cue Jade's car sped into the driveway almost hitting us in the process. "Come on!" She yelled out of the window before she glanced back down at her phone.

"So that's your mother?" Tori asked as I nodded.

"Yeah you can come meet her if you want. She's not friendly though, so don't be surprised if she cusses you out or whatever."

"…Ooh, okay." Tori said as she grabbed her husband's hand and walked over to the window.

"Hey Jade these are Monica's parents." I yelled out as I walked over and gave Monica a hug and told her I'll call her soon before I walked over to the passengers seat and got in.

"Jade?"

Jade turned to look out of her window. "Vega!? What the hell!?" Jade removed her seat belt before opening her door and getting out and so I did the same.

"Well would you look at this." Jade crossed her arms as she gave one of her fake smiles as she looked over Beck and Tori.

"Jade…wow, how have you been?" Beck said before Jade shot him a nasty look.

"Beck you shut the hell up. I can't even…." She looked over at their house before taking a glance at Monica who stood beside them.

"Oh so Monica is you guys' daughter!?" She asked in an amused way.

"Yes. I'm guessing Isis is yours?"

"Oh stupid Vega guessed correctly."

Dude did I miss something?

"It's Oliver." Tori corrected lightly.

"Whatever!"

"How's Cat doing?" Beck asked.

"Why are you worried about it?" Jade shot.

"Hey I texted her a little while ago. I miss Cat. Tell her to call."

"Are you fucking crazy!? Both of you go to hell!"

Beck put his hand out as if to try and calm Jade. "Jade….it's been years okay Drop it-"

"-FUCK YOU!"

I watched as Jade shook her head. "Isis get back in the car!" She yelled as she turned to get in. "I never want to see you around Monica again do you hear me!?" She said as she started the car and roughly backed out of the driveway before speeding down the street.

"But why!?"

"Because I said so!"

"Monica has nothing to do with whatever shit you have against her parent-"

"-I don't give a fuck! Her parents are fucking bitch bastards! You are not hanging around her anymore! That's the end of it!"

"But Jade you can't do that!"

"I can do whatever the hell that I want!"

"But she's my girlfriend!"

"She's not anymore! If I ever catch you talking to her you are going to be in so much trouble little girl I swear to god!"

I felt tears start to fill my eyes. "Jade you can't do that!"

"I can and this is the end of it!"

"No!"

"You're not seeing her anymore Isis and PERIOD! Shut the hell up about it! Its over!"

I growled as hot tears streamed down my face as I crossed my arms and threw myself back into the seat.

"There are other girls out there. You are not dating their child! No. never. No."

"You don't know anything about her!" I spat out through tears.

"And I don't want to!"

"She has nothing to do with her parents!"

"She's their child! ISIS I SAID NO!"

I kicked the glove box before I turned away from her as much as I could.

I don't know what Jade's problem is about her parents..but….She's not going to stop me from seeing Monica.

Period.

[Cat's POV]

I sat on the edge of our bed with my legs crossed as Jade walked in. "Cat can you fuckin believe Monica is…" She stopped once she looked up at me and then around at the bags packed around me.

"What the hell is going on?" She asked as she stepped closer.

I shook my head as tears fell from my eyes. "Jade….I….I just…I can't do this anymore."

"You can't do what?"

"Us..this." I said pointing to different scars on me.

"But Cat.."

"I can't Jade."

Jade looked around before staring back at me with tear filled eyes. "So what? You're leaving me?"

"I just….need a break okay."

She dropped her purse on the floor as tears fell down her cheeks. "You said you love me-"

"-And Jade I do! I love you so much. But I can't….I can't keep doing this with you babe."

"Cat I swear I don't mean to hurt you!"

"I know you don't Jade. It's just a break."

"So you're leaving me too!?" She said as more tears started to fall.

"No baby, I'm not leaving yo-"

"-Just go then Cat! This is why I said I can never trust anybody! AHHHH!" She Scream as she kicked one of my bags hard.

"You said you would never leave me! Cat I need you! I need you! You're the only one I have! I promise I'll try to get things better! Help me! Don't leave me! Help me! I don't like hurting you and I don't even know when I'm doing it! It's like something takes over me! Please Cat! Please! I'll do better!" Jade cried as she fell to her knees.

It hurts so bad to see her like this.

I stood up and walked over to where she sat on her knees crying before she wrapped her arms around the lower half of my body and cried into my thigh. "I'm sorry baby! I am!"

I started to cry harder. I don't want to leave her. And I'm surprised she's not hurting me for telling her that I'm going to leave. She always threatened to kill me if I ever left her. Maybe she was just saying it to scare me? Out of anger maybe?

Jade….I know I'm the only one she has and I don't want to leave her…but….ugh!

"Baby." I said softly before she looked up at me.

"Yes?"

"Promise me we can find you some kind of help?"

"I promise! I promise! Please stay!"

I sighed and I got to my knees and hugged her tight as she did the same. My gaze fell to exposed burnt skin of her back before I pulled away.

"Jade?"

"Yes baby. I'm sorry."

"Jade….what happened that night?"

"What?"

"What happened that night? Why won't you tell me?"

She backed away from me a little. "Cat…I can't….I don't want to talk about it pleaseee don't make me. Not tonight!" She cried.

I sighed again as I nodded. "Jade…I'll stay, but we have to find you help. Anger management, maybe someone to talk to okay?"

She just nodded as she cried more.

I just hope I'm doing the right thing…
