Terror on Cupcake Street
"No it's my fault Mrs. Berry," Beck sighed.
My lips quirked into a smile. He was such an amazing boyfriend. I had stabbed Sinjin with scissors when the teacher was turned around, and she was about to send me to the principals when Beck covered for me.
"Beck, I'm shocked." Mrs. Berry commented. "Usually Jade is the one for violence. You usually aren't like this."
Beck rubbed his forehead. "Well Sinjin was flirting with Jade and I got mad." Beck said plainly.
"With hair like yours this girl's never going to leave you son. Now anyways, come to the principals Beck. You're probably going to miss your next class." Mrs. Berry said, leading Beck out of the room.
He turned to look at me one more time before leaving, and I mouthed 'I love you'. He smiled and made a heart with his hands before leaving the room.
Shortly after Beck left, the bell rang for the next class. I picked up my bag and trudged over to Sikowitz's. I dragged a chair in between rows so no one would sit by me. Of course, the class jocks/studs/players/DICKS sat in the seats surrounding me when they realized Beck wasn't going to be attending class. I rolled my eyes and leaned back. If they touched me, I would certainly be joining Beck in the office.
"Class, today we will be performing scenes with buckets on our heads." Sikowitz said, carrying to silver buckets into the room. I furrowed my eyebrows.
"Yo Sikowitz. I don't think this is good, because you can't make out with someone with a bucket on your head," The 'cool' guy, Jason said, turning around and winking at me.
"And you also can't cause damage to people's faces," I shot back. He scratched his head and turned around.
"Jason we've talked about not wanting girls for only their body, and Jade I've mentioned to you violence is never the answer, correct?" Sikowitz said.
"Yes." Me and Jason mumbled.
"Now. Tori and Andre! Put these silver alien hats on your head and begin!" Sikowitz said. Andre groaned, and him and Tori walked up and put on the buckets.
"How are we supposed to see the script if we have buckets over our heads?" Tori screamed.
"Improv!" Sikowitz clapped.
"I don't want to argue with you, I just want us to be friends," Tori said with vivid hand movement.
"What'd she say?" Andre yelled.
"What'd he say?" Tori asked.
"I can't hear!" Andre yelled, sticking his arms out and reaching for Tori.
"I can't either!"
I grinned. They got tangled up in a mess and took their buckets off
"See! Not so easy to perform a scene with buckets on your head!" Sikowitz said, walking up to the stage.
"It's difficult." Andre said.
"Well. Class dismissed!" Sikowitz yelled.
I looked at my phone. Had class gone by that quick? No. we still had like 50 minutes left.
"But we still have more time." I spoke up.
"We do? How much?" Sikowitz said clueless.
"55 minutes." Robbie said.
"Oh. Well actually I do have something to discuss with some of you," Sikowitz said.
PLEASE don't be me. Don't be me. I crossed my fingers and closed my eyes.
"Tori. Cat. Andre. Robbie." Sikowitz started.
I grinned. YES!
"Jade." Sikowitz stopped.
I groaned. Almost. "The rest of you. May wander the halls," Sikowitz said. He pulled open the door and motioned for us to go out. "Enjoy your day!"
"Why'd you make them leave?" Cat asked. Sikowitz shrugged.
"I don't know. They never talk."
"Yeah. They just sit there and react," Tori grinned.
I rolled my eyes. "So what do you want with us?"
"Who likes parades?" Sikowitz asked.
Shit.
"Hillbilly's!" Rex screamed.
"No one!" I shouted.
"C'mon! Parades are fun!" Sikowitz encouraged.
"One time, my brother went to a parade, but he was being inappropriate and the parade people called the police so now he's not allowed to be in parades." Cat twirled her hair. "Or be near horses."
Before anyone could ask what the hell she meant, I pulled out my key ring which had my house key, my car key, Beck's house key, Beck's RV key, and Beck's car key and gave it to Cat.
"Play with the shiny keys."
"KK!"
"So you all know about the girl I've been dating. Felicia?" Sikowitz grinned.
Woah. Sikowitz had a girlfriend? Poor girl…
"Well anyways, she the parade director of this year's parade parade. " Sikowitz said.
I rolled my eyes. STUPID.
"Parade Parade?" Andre said.
"I've never heard of that," Tori said.
"Exactly. It's a parade to help raise awareness of parades," Sikowitz said.
STUPID.
"Anyways, I promised Felicia that I would get some of my most creative students to perform at the parade parade-"
No. No fucking way.
I got up snatched my keys from Cat and stormed out of the classroom. Outside in the hall, the rest of the class was leaning against the lockers and listening to their iPods, unsure of what else to do.
"What did he want Jade?" Anne, a usually quiet girl asked.
"Don't know, don't care," I muttered, rounding the corner. I almost ran into Beck who was just coming to Sikowitz's class.
"Babe…what are you doing?" Beck asked.
"Leaving. Let's ditch." I said, grabbing his hand.
"I already have 2 weeks of Saturday detention. I don't think ditching is the best idea right now.
I sighed. "Fine. Then I'll be in your RV when you get home."
I gave him a peck on the lips. Beck asked Jason what was going on, and then slid down on the lockers waiting for the next class. I got to my car and rummaged through my keys. One…two…three…four.
I was missing one. I had all of Beck's keys, and my car key. Shit. Where's my house key.
Cat.
I ran back inside.
"Are you not going leaving?" Beck asked when he saw me.
"I am." I said, and stormed into the room.
"Where's my house key?" I interrupted.
I saw Cat's posture stiffen and she turned around and rubbed her belly. Tori got up.
"I'll take her to the nurse."
"I ate it," cat said.
"We'll see it again."
I rolled my eyes and left. At least I had the key to Beck's RV

"Hey babe," Beck said, throwing his keys on his dresser and taking his jacket off.
I glanced up from the book I was reading. "Hey."
"So at lunch Tori told me that they're going to be on national television." Beck grinned. My eyes shot up. National Television?
"For what?" I asked.
"Some parade parade. They asked me to come with them and I cleared it up with the school. If I go to the parade I can get out of one of my Saturday detentions since it helps Sikowitz. And it's not a bad way to get noticed." Beck shrugged.
"Fuck." I muttered, throwing my book down.
"Did they invite you?"
"Kind of. It's complicated. I'll be back." I said, grabbing my car keys and running out. Off to Vega's house.
Ten minutes later I stormed in, getting an elbow in my kidney.
"I'm sorry did someone invite you here?" Tori asked with a smirk.
"Beck told me you guys were performing on national TV!"
"So?"
"And you think you're doing that without me?" I smirked.
"Well you stormed out of Sikowitz's class!" Andre said.
I glared at him. Might I remind everyone that he had a crush on me a week ago?
"I feel that Jade should be included," Andre said robotically. I smiled and sat next to him.
"Fine! Whatever. So what should our float be?" Tori asked.
"Someone should just pick and idea." Andre said.
Sooo many ideas were running through my head.
"So who's going to pick?"
"Well luckily I have a new pearpad app called Spin-a-magig," Robbie said.
I groaned. "Let me just finish putting in our faces…and now I stroke this and the wheel spins randomly until it lands on one of us," Robbie finished.
"And that person picks what the floats gonna be?" Cat giggled.
I rolled my eyes. "No Cat! That person gets a kidney transplant!"
Robbie started spinning it and I sat back. Wait? Where'd he get that picture of me? That was a photo-shoot me, Beck, and Cat did on Halloween. Dammit Cat!
The wheel finally came to a stop and landed on me. I grinned.
"Uh…keep spinning!" Tor said nervously.
"No it's done." Robbie said mournfully.
"So! I get to pick what float we're doing!" I said, standing up and clapping my hands together.
"Jade. This is a parade. With children." Tori warned.
"I love children." I said sarcastically, and then exited her house. Boy this was going to be fun.
"Where'd you go?" Beck asked once I arrived back at his RV.
"To Tori's house to let her know I'm doing the parade. And guess what?" I said happily, taking a seat beside him on his bed.
"What?"
"I get to pick the float theme," I grinned.
Beck furrowed his eyebrows. "How'd that happen?"
"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked, crossing my arms.
"Well, Cat," Beck teased, "It means that you're not Tori's favorite person and don't usually have kid-friendly ideas."
"True. We spun a wheel and it landed on me," I grinned.
"I feel bad for the people watching the parade." Beck groaned, sliding back on his bed. I kicked my boots off and rested my head on his chest.
"I have an amazing idea."
"Is it kid friendly?"
"…not at all."
"I wouldn't have guessed anything else." Beck sighed, kissing my forehead.
We laid in silence for a few moments before I spoke.
"I have another non-kid friendly idea." I said.
"And what would that be," Beck asked, closing his eyes.
"This," I said softly, wrapping my leg over his waist leaning down to kiss him. His eyes fluttered open.
"Very un-kid friendly you naughty girl," he moaned.
"You wouldn't have guessed anything else," I teased, moving my hands to his belt buckle.

We met in Sikowitz's class early the next morning.
"So! What did you guys decide for the float?" Sikowitz asked.
Tori looked uncomfortable. "Well. We spun a wheel…and Jade gets to pick. And she hasn't told any of us yet."
"Not even me." Beck threw in.
"Let's hear it Mrs. West!" Sikowitz said, grabbing my shoulders and dragging me to the stage.
"First I want to clarify something. Sikowitz. Does it have to be kid appropriate?"
"Uh…I prefer it to be, but the parade is divided into two sections, adult and kid, and we can enter either…" Sikowitz said quietly.
"Awesome. So we're all going to be strippers." I said. Everybody looked at me in shock.
"Jade…" Beck said slowly.
"Yes my lovingly horny boyfriend who seemed to have no problem with my stripper outfit last night?" I said.
Beck blushed. "Uh…I think we should enter the kids section."
"You want children to see us stripping?" I said.
"No! I want us to do an age-appropriate thing for children. Like a giant cupcake or something." Beck offered.
"No. Okay. So we're going to be strippers, or hookers or whatever, and the guys are going to look hot and stuff, and Robbie's going to be this rich-ass nerd. Kind of like in that play Beck and Tori did where Cat made Tori a zombie. We're going to do it to the song "Sleazy" by Ke$ha, and our float is going to be like a stage, with three poles coming out of it," I started explaining.
"Jade let's have a talk," Beck said, getting up and pulling me out of the classroom.
"Yes?"
"This isn't good."
"Beck. I'm helping everyone. I thought this through, and last night I was going to do some gory clown act, but this morning in the car while we were listening to Lady Gaga and Britney spears and Ke$ha on the radio I thought that all those girls are famous because they're obvious sluts, and have a sex appeal. We're going to be on national television! If we want to be famous, we need a sex appeal. This is for us. This is a major shot Beck! And you can just go to your detention and not do it for all I care. But I am." I said, crossing my arms.
Beck slowly nodded. "You have a point, but you should really explain it to Tori. And you're probably going to need to tell Cat what sex is."
"She knows already."
"How?"
"Jason. I hooked them up."
"That's awful."
"Apparently he's really good at it."
"And you know this because…?"
"Cat told me!"
XoXoXoXo
Outside Beck, Andre, and Robbie were assembling the float while me, Tori and Cat worked on the costumes. Or lack of costume.
"So I have Beck's and mine. Cat has hers and Robbie, and Tori has Andre's and hers?" I clarified.
"Yeah. How does this look for André?" Tori asked, pulling out a pair of torn (very torn) denim jeans.
"He's shirtless?"
"Yeah."
"Tori the zipper doesn't work. He's going to flash some nuttage," I said fiddling with the zipper.
Tori winked. "Exactly."
I grinned. We were actually thinking alike.
"Guys look!" Cat giggled, coming out in bright pink fishnets and tutu and white see through shirt with a bright pink bra underneath. It wasn't the most stripperish of outfits, but she looked like a slut.
"Good. And Robbie's?"
"A sweater vest and cacky pants!" Cat giggled.
"Okay. Now for Beck's," I said, throwing out jeans similar to Andre's, but a few sizes smaller. "And Tori. We're smearing oil all over the before the show to make them extra hot," I winked.
I finished sewing together the last of mine. It was one of my old skirts that I cut and hemmed to make it a lot shorter. I had black fishnets and a button down leather vest that I buttoned to show my boobs just enough. I had black high heels. Tori went the dirty cowgirl route and had a tie on plaid shirt she cut so it stopped at her ribcage, and showed her stomach. She left it untied enough to partially see her chest , and she wore a size to small short shorts and cowboy high heeled boots.
"We look like whores." I commented. There's nothing I hate more than whores, but there's nothing I want more than to be famous. And talent isn't enough these days. Being brutally honest, there are so many people just as good as me. It takes the extra step to be famous. Like take Lady Gaga. She's CRAZY talented, but I think I'm just as talented as her. But she dresses in meat dresses and hatches out of eggs for concerts. I don't want to be weird, so take Ke$ha. She's not…amazingly talented. Sure, she's okay. But she's hot, and creates dancy-techno kind of music people like. So if I'm hot, and have talent, that's like combining Lady Gaga and Ke$ha. And that's amazing.
"Hoy shit," Beck said, walking in in a wife beater and jeans. He looked at my costume up and down.
"You're going to be on national television like this?" Andre raised his eyebrow.
"Yes we are," Tori said confidently, resting her hand on my shoulder and standing beside me.
"I'm a slutty fairy!" Cat giggled, running circles around us waving a wand.
"Oh my god." Beck face-palmed himself.
"Jade told me I was a slutty fairy! What's a slutty?" Cat asked, batting her eyebrows.
"It's what Jade's being," Beck said lowly, before turning and walking out.
I looked after him with shock.
"Jade. Are you a slutty?" Cat asked.
"Shut up," I muttered, and ran after Beck.
"Hey! What's that about! Calling your girlfriend a slut?" I shrieked.
"Because maybe she's being one. The choreography has you dancing around on poles half naked on national television. You know what Jade? You wanna be famous. Be a fucking pornstar. Jason would love to do it with you." Beck spat.
I grabbed Beck's long jacket that was on the car and wrapped it around me.
"Fine. We'll do the giant cupcake idea or whatever. We can all be giant sprinkles to go on top. You know the last time we did a children's group it turned out great," I said sarcastically.
"Jade. I know all of us but Cat would hate to be on a cupcake. So maybe we can compromise. You're hot enough that you don't need to look like a stripper to get noticed, and you've certainly got the talent. I have an idea." Beck grinned.
XoXoXoXo
I paced around nervously behind our float. We had changed it up to where it was a regular stage with red curtains and all.
"Do I still get to be a slutty fairy?" Cat asked.
"Yes my dear. You're my fairy godmother, and Tori's my Texan evil stepsister." I grinned.
We were putting on an adult version of Cinderella. I was Cinderella, a Goth one. I was wearing a short black dress and platform shoes. Tori remained in her cowgirl outfit, and Cat remained in her slutty fairy, minus the fishnets.
Beck was my (hot) prince charming, and he still wore no shirt, and Andre was my evil stepbrother (since we didn't have another stepsister). Robbie and Rex were narrating the short musical tale.
It was amazing.
Everybody gathered around, mostly 13 year old girls (OMG! Look at Aladdin's Abs! Do you think he has a girlfriend? YO! He's dating Cinderella bitches) But whatever.
All in all, Andre was the only one who got noticed by some Indian guy wanting him to go into motivational speaking, but no major music producers or casting agents look in the Parade Parade for employees.
We all returned to Hollywood Arts the next day, and everything turned out okay.
