Jade POV:

Was he crazy? Or was I just deaf? Did he actually say he would protect me? I bit my lower lip as my eyes glared at him. He was nuts, this was ridiculous but I couldn't help but acknowledge the fact that he would try protect me. Try, that's a nice word to use. As cliche as it sound I believed him. I wanted to believe him.

"Let's go then" I say between my clench teeth "But don't tell me, I didn't warn you"

He nods his head as he escorts me into his car. It's roomy and awkward at the same time, sitting in the passenger seat next to him. I wonder if Beck parents ever gets mad at him or if he's the perfect child. I wonder so many things, I wonder why I agree for him to drop me off. My thoughts soon vanished as soon as I heard his voice.

"The kiss" He begins to say, scratching his head with one hand and using the other to drive "What I meant to say, was if the kiss-"

I interrupted him "There was no kiss, it was a mere accident"

"Oh" His all he says, and is all he wants to say. But what do I know? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. So I sit there, my eyebrow raised trying to seem as if doesn't bug me when in the inside it does. It really does.

"Look, I'm only going to say this once" I blurted out, the words slipping out of my mouth without me knowing. "So don't let me repeat myself, I will kill you." I closed my eyes as the words continue to come "Your not so bad, I consider you as a err-fr-friend" I stuttered, breathing a sign of relief as soon as I was done.

He chuckled, nodding his head as he says "If you don't mind, I consider you more than a friend" He emphasized on the word more. Which made me smirk in response.

"You can dream, I'm not stopping you but dream too much you'll die" I threatened jokily, I laughed. A real laugh, that tickles your tummy and gives you butterflies. It's odd.

"I won't dream too much ma'am" He says with a British accent which causes me to groan.

"Really Beck?" I mumbled "You just killed the mood. Thanks" I say sarcastically as I titled my head so my face would touch the window. The coldness of it, gives me chills. The good kind.

"Sorry" He apologizes as he makes a turn to my street. He knows my address, since he goes to my house every few free weekends.

"Whatever" And just like that, the whole way through we are silent. The silent is comfortable, to say the least. Luckily, we didn't need to wait oh-so-long because Beck is already parking the car and opening the door which I send a deathe glare at him. I'm not old.

"Sorry" He mumbles under his breath, as he walks in the back of me. His chains clinging to one another as they make a odd sound. The house is oddly quiet as we walk closer to it.

"It seems quiet" Beck say, holding out his hand. I don't know why I do but I take it. His warm hand mixing with my cold ones. It's a nice mix, to say the least. A nice gesture.

"We should go in" I suggested, nodding my head as my grip on Beck grew tighter. He smiled slightly, as I opened the door with my keys. It was quiet.

"I think you should go" I mumbled, looking at him. Our eyes never leaving each other. He shook his head.

"Nah, I'll just stay for a while"

I groaned "Seriously, listen to me for once. I'm doing this for your sake"

"My sake?" He raised his eyebrows, "I want to stay though"

"Beck"

"Jade" He says his voice mimicking mine. I glare at him.

"I'll be fine, promise" I manage to choke out, letting a fake smile out. He smirks.

"You promised, can't go back on your word"

"I know what I said" I hissed. "Can you go?"

"Magic word?"

"Can you go now please" I was running thin in my patience, I rolled my eyes as he smiled. We weren't exactly friends, but he was my only almost friend and someone who acknowledge me and my hateful behavior.

"The magic word was ocean, but I'll take it" He chuckles as he waves his hands, finally letting mine go. Leaving me breathless and emotionless.

I walked further inside, before I slammed the door after Beck was gone. Like I mention earlier, the house was indeed quiet. Eerily quiet, too quiet even for a house of three people. I bit my bottom lips, maybe they left? Somewhere? No. That couldn't be possible, mother and father are business people. They don't party, barely. I nearly jumped in my skin, when my mom opened the door.

"Was that your tutor?" She asked, raising her eyebrows. "Or perhaps your boyfriend"

"Tutor, no boyfriend" I shook my head, my curls falling effortlessly on my shoulders.

"Seems more than a tutor" She chuckled, taking off her coat and placing it onto the couch.

"Mom, I'm serious"

"And I'm serious"

"Beck is just a friend"

"I thought he was your tutor" She raises her eyebrows, trying to twist my words. I snickered.

"He's a tutor and a friend sorta in a way" I mumbled, she nods her head seeing the way my face flushes a brighter color.

"Okay, your father will be coming home late. Work and all" She explains, "You should be studying by the way"

"I know" I mumbled, the fact that my house was rather ugly because of my father yelling and all was only the reason why I didn't call it home. It was just a setting. I sigh softly as I waved at my mom. "I'm going to my room"

"Alright," She smiled as she sat down on the couch.

I walked slowly, opening the door to my room as I plop onto my bed. The walls were black, pitch black. Shelves aligned with jars full of butterflies. And there's me, a pale white blob who doesn't fit anywhere. Who just needs a place, where I belong. That's why it was pretty great, when I got in for HollyWood Arts. Just two more months, just two more months Jade. About to take a shower, when I get a call. I pick up the phone to see Beck. Just great.

"Hello?" He says nervously.

"What?" I hissed, tapping my foot impatiently. My voice isn't nearly as sharp and scary, as it usually was. Good thing? Or bad thing? My thoughts soon were gone when I heard him speak once again.

"Was home as ugly as you said it would be?" He asked, I could tell he loved mocking or teasing me in any opportunity he could get because right after he says that he lets out a low laugh causing me to frown.

"It's not funny, Beck" I mumbled, "I meant every word I said"

"I know, sorry" He apologizes, his voice becoming serious and calm once again.

"Anyways, if your done telling me what you want to say. Can I go?" I say, crossing my arms after I place the cellphone between my ear and shoulder.

"You owe me"

"Huh?"

"You owe me" He repeats once again, his voice losing it's nervousness. I snickered.

"Weren't we over this?"

"You owe me" He repeats for the third time, causing me to groan.

"I don't think so, sorry" I say sarcastically, as weird and odd as it sound I like playing this game with Beck. Since, I always winned. I love winning.

"Jade"

"Beck" I mimic his voice, it was my time to get even.

"I'm serious Jade, you owe me"

"Since when did Beck get serious"

"Just now"

"What do I owe you? And why?" I asked, my eyebrows furrowed close together.

"You owe me since I risked my life for you"

I laughed out loud "Risked your life? As if"

"I'm serious"

"Okay" I rolled my eyes "What do I owe Mr. Oliver?" My voice is in the near edge of annoyance since I was done playing with Beck. I needed a shower.

"A date" He manages to say after a long pause.

"What? Did I hear right? Or are you just dumb?" I asked several questions. Another long pause. Silence. Utter silence. Only the sound of my heart beating, and my foot tapping the floor. Just that. Nothing else.

"You heard right, and no I'm not dumb" He finally answers, his voice full of confidence.

I didn't know what to say, so I just stood there. Thoughts, answers passing each second. Forgetting that there was now a towel upon my hand, and that I was suppose to be taking a shower. My thoughts all ruined because of him. Because of the date. Because of me owing him. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. The phone fell from my grip, all I heard was 'hello hello hello' before I hung up. Hearing only the sound of my beating heart and my slow breathing. What was I suppose to feel?

Author Note: Okay everyone, as you can tell the Bademance is so 'close' You could almost taste it right? ;) Anyways, I hope you like this chapter since I actually enjoyed writing a more 'sensitive-ish' Jade I know I haven't been updating regularly it's because of some stupid drama in twitter, a girl was calling me a fake because she said that I said that the blond girl in my picture was me but I DIDN'T. So she misunderstood. LOL But the part that made me piss was that I helped her with her problems, and she has the right to call me a liar and a fake AND she said I was the rudest person on earth she ever met. Reporting me and blocking me. But I don't mind at all. :] So, I want to thank my friends for being there Imsantiago for being such a gift from above, and...JayC as well. You guys make me stronger! SOORY FOR MY BABBLING, I JUST NEEDED TO WRITE THAT! SO MY FEELING WOULD BE GONE!
