Everybody's Fool
Chapter 49: Short Temper
I do NOT own Victorious
...
Cat sighed as she went through the invitation samples on her kitchen table as her 5 month old was on her lap, clapping his hands. "Anthony…I demand to elope. What do you think?" She looked down at the boy, who only blew spit bubbles out of his mouth. "That helps so much…" She pouted. "Stupid Beck."
"What the heck did I do?" Her fiancée's voice rang with confusion as he stepped into the kitchen.
Cat glared to him. "You better be planning on being with me forever because I'm never going to get married or plan a wedding again." She stood up, balancing Anthony in her arms. "If we ever divorce, I'm becoming a nun."
"We're not divorcing." Beck walked up to her and kissed her head. "I'm never leaving your side."
"You better not." Cat mumbled. "You ready to go?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Okay, let me use the restroom and then we'll go." Cat handed Anthony over her Beck and then walked into the hallway.
Beck sighed and looked to his son. "We're not even married yet and she was worrying about divorcing…should I be concerned?" He asked the child, who cooed and giggled. Beck chuckled. "Nah, I didn't think so either." He sat down where Cat was sitting before and made Anthony face him. "Okay, buddy, I've wanted to share a few life and love advice with you. And here's the first one: your mom is the most perfect woman on the planet and you'll never find anyone like her." Beck told him sternly. "Both you and I will always cherish her…she's our everything. Right?"
Anthony innocently smiled.
Beck grinned. "Glad we're on the same page."
Cat held back her tears as she wiped her mouth with a tissue…
…
Cat and Beck watched as the wedding planner was showing them a hall that fit the amount of people they wanted to invite to the wedding. The blonde, curly haired woman, who looked to be in her 30's, kept getting distracted every time her eyes hit Beck. Cat was losing her cool little by little and Beck was noticing. "Anyways, this hall seats 1,000 people."
"Good, because we're inviting 500." Cat said sharply, glaring at the woman while Beck was balancing the baby on his hip. "500 people who have supported our relationship and have cheered us on throughout the years."
Beck just grinned with amusement as the woman scowled. "Yippee for you." She mumbled.
"Thanks." Cat faked a smile.
A cell phone ring rang out, startling everyone in the tense atmosphere. Their wedding planner took her phone out of her pocket and sighed. "I have to take this, excuse me." And she walked out of the large room.
Cat sharply turned to Beck. "I hate her, let's fire her."
"Sweetheart, calm-"
"If you DARE tell me to calm down, I will be forced to not make love to you until our wedding night."
"Which is only 3 weeks away, so can't you live with her as our wedding planner for that long?"
"Can you live without touching me for that long?"
"…no."
"Then I insist you shush." Cat practically growled. "Now."
"Yes, ma'am." Beck closed his lips.
The next sound they heard was Anthony cooing.
Beck tried to lighten the mood. "Isn't he cute?"
"Shush."
"Yes, ma'am."
…
"No!" Cat screeched as she was in Tori and Jade's apartment. They had pictures of wedding cakes all over the table, but Cat was losing her cool. "We cannot have pink frosting on a chocolate cake! It's so ugly!"
"It depends on the shade of pink though!" Tori tried to smooth things out.
"Does it matter?" Jade said dully, flipping through the wedding binder. "It's all going to our asses after the wedding anyways."
Cat glared to her. "Is that your way of comforting me? If it is…IT SUCKS!"
"Why the hell are you so damn moody?" Jade snapped back.
Cat sighed and shook her head. "Nothing…no reason. I need to go check on Anthony." She left the table without another word and went towards Jade's room, where her son was sleeping on the bed. She peeked in and saw him sound asleep, and she snuck into the bathroom. She walked to the toilet and opened the seat, kneeling down…and sticking her pointer finger into her mouth and down her throat.
…
Beck came home late that night after closing the store and put his jacket up on the coat holder. "Cat, I'm home!" He called out lightly. The house was dark and nothing was heard. He peeked into the baby's room, seeing his son asleep in his crib. He walked towards the bedroom and saw the bed still made. "Cat?" He was getting worried. He heard absolutely no sounds. He turned on the bathroom light and walked towards the toilet, where he found his future wife curled up next to the awful smelling toilet seat. He saw puke inside it and Cat was in a daze, staring at him, yet staring through him. "Oh, no, no, no." He whispered as he closed the seat and flushed the toilet. He put his hands on her waist and helped her to the sink, washed her mouth out, and walked her to the bed, where she climbed onto it weakly. "Cat…I'm so sorry. I failed you."
Cat curled up and sobbed. "I can't do this! I can't…can't stop! It's…it's…"
"It's an addiction." Beck finished for his fragile fiancée. "Cat…what can I do to help you?"
Cat shrugged and leaned into his open arms.
Beck knew what he had to do…and he was going to hate himself…but it would be for the best.
…
Jade came in the next day around noon and sighed. "Cat! I know you're off again today, so we need to work out that damn cake issue you had yesterday!"
"Cat's not here." Beck grumbled as Jade passed him on the couch. He had Anthony down for a nap and he looked miserable.
Jade groaned. "Then where is she?"
Beck looked away from her. "…I had no choice."
At the tone in Beck's voice, it was making the Goth nervous. "Beck, where the hell is Cat?"
"Hollywood's best psychiatric hospital."
"SHE'S WHAT?"
