After Jade got her coffee the two sat down in front of the lockers and waited for the bell to ring to announce lunch break. A few minutes later it was finally time for lunch and Jade showed Kyle the food truck. The last few days they had spent their breaks going through Hollywood Arts with Jade showing Kyle everything, so today would be the first time that they would eat at Asphalt Cafe together and he had a feeling that it would be interesting. Jade didn't even look around and made her way to a far away table in the corner, but when Cat called out to them she stopped.

"Jadey, Kyle over here." Kyle saw Jade hesitant and he had a feeling it had something to do with the four other people at the table.

Jade sighed deeply, she really didn't want to sit with them, but Cat and Kyle didn't have a opportunity to talk so far and she knew Cat and Kyle were also friends so she couldn't just leave Cat out. Changing her direction she walked over to Cat's table.

"Just so we're clear, this is an exception, consider yourself lucky." Then she sat down next to Cat and motioned for Kyle to sit next to her.

"So Kitty, want to introduce me to your friends." Next to him Jade snorted, but didn't say anything and focused her full attention on her salad.

Beck couldn't keep his eyes away from Jade when she sat down, that was the closest she had been to him since their break up and all he wanted to do was reach out to her and hold her again. He was so occupied that he almost flinched when Cat said his name, obviously she had just introduced him. Beck looked up to find Kyle watching him with a hard look in his eyes. He wasn't sure what Jade had told Kyle about him and their relationship, but he assumed that it wasn't the best judging by the frown on Kyle's face. Everyone at the table seemed to notice the tense moment between the two guys and Cat quickly introduced Robbie next.

Jade tried to block the conversation between Kyle, Cat and her former friends out. It was now two weeks ago that Beck broke up with her and a week since Kyle had arrived. With him around it was easy to forget the pain in her heart, but when she was alone at night she still felt it. Her heart was laughing again thanks to Kyle, but it hadn't fully healed. She was aware that Kyle knew she wasn't entirely happy, but he didn't ask her about it because he knew that she wasn't ready to talk about it just yet. Maybe with a little more time passing she would figure everything out. She was pulled out of her thoughts by Tori trying to make conversation.

"So what do you all have planned for this weekend?"

"I have to make my The Slap video and Jade is going to help me with it."

"I am?" Jade raised her eyebrow challenging at Kyle.

"You are. In exchange I'll buy you coffee for a week."

"You already do that, so make a better offer."

"Let's see... I know. I'll get you the new scissors we saw the other day at the mall."

"Alright you got yourself a deal, but only because I really want these scissors." Jade smirked at him.

Beck had watched the whole exchange between them with a frown on his face. Jade wouldn't let herself be talked so easily into helping someone if she didn't already want to help them from the beginning. Everything looked like she enjoyed spending time with Kyle, seeing that her and Kyle seemed to have gone scissor shopping, judging by his comment. The way they bickered and were smirking at each other worried Beck a lot. He could see Jade slipping away from him and right into Kyle's arms. The worst thing was that he couldn't do anything about it, he had lost that right when he broke up with Jade. Late a night when he was alone in his RV, where nobody could see his calm and collected mask fall, he admitted to himself that it hurt. He missed her and even now where she was physical so close to him, emotionally they were poles apart and he was to blame for that. Kyle and Jade acted so carefree with each other and he was sure he wasn't the only one who could see that there was a connection. Little did Beck know that on Saturday a video on The Slap would only confirm his fears.

Kyle's video profile was special to say the least. Within the first few seconds it was already quite different than others. For one Jade sat next to him, of course with coffee in hand.

"I just asked you to help me with the video, not be in it."

"Well, deal with it because I'm too comfortable to move." Jade smirked at him.

"Alright because a certain lazy coffee addicted girl doesn't want to move I'm just going to do my profile video like that. Hey, I'm Kyle and I'm new at Hollywood Arts. Well let's see, I'm here for acting and singing and I even have my own band."

"And he is obviously so proud of that." Jade interrupted.

"If I remembered correctly you love my band, you even sang songs with us. Maybe I can upload a video from one of the performances we did together years ago."

"You wouldn't." By now it was obvious that they had totally forgotten the camera.

"I would." He only smirked at her.

"No way I'm letting you do that. Let me just get my scissors out of my boot and then I'll cut your hair a little."

"Seeing that I have to run any second now, I guess this video is over, but I'm sure you got a good first impression of my life here at Hollywood Arts." With that the video faded to black.

Beck wasn't the only one that sat shocked in front of his laptop. The video almost looked like something a couple would do and it was rare to see Jade in such a good mood, especially considering her break up with her longtime boyfriend was only three weeks ago. The comments under the video weren't reassuring for Beck either.

'How comes Jade always gets all the hot guys.' Undoubtedly Tori's.

'It's like Middle School all over again, yay. Maybe I should really call Tyler again.'

'I hope Kyle still has his hairs and for the record I don't think you should call that guy Cat.' Read Robbie's comment.

'I would like to see that video of the performance they are talking about. Wouldn't mind some good music.' That's what Andre is thinking about.

Beck didn't comment on it, but he was sure if someone saw his face right now that would be comment enough. The almost playful bickering, as far as it was possible with Jade, and the easy smirks and close proximity, each was a stab in the heart for Beck. When they had been dating that used to be them and now he could only watch Jade move on with Kyle and it hurt so much. That wasn't what he had wanted when he refused to open that door. He wanted for them to stop fighting, not lose her, but right now it looked like he was.

It was the first weekend since her break up with Beck that Jade felt like herself again. Making the profile video with Kyle was fun, even thought she had to make sure he would never really post that old video. When she saw the video it reminded her a little of Beck's profile video. He hadn't planned for her to be in it, but in the end they both had been happy with the results. Thinking about her ex-boyfriend the pain in her heart, that had become quite familiar since her break up with Beck, returned. It wasn't as sharp as it had been three weeks ago, but it was still there. Despite that a few comments seemed to think she had moved on with Kyle that wasn't the case. She saw Kyle as a good friend, someone she could fully trust and who had never disappointed her, but there wasn't more right now. They were probably to alike to work out anyway, but spending so much time with Kyle felt good and it lessened the pain in her heart. Little did she know that everyone who saw that video basically thought Kyle and her were a couple.

On Monday morning Jade found herself once again being the topic of the whispers in the hallways. Just like after her break up with Beck people's eyes followed her everywhere and when Kyle showed up by her locker with her morning coffee it didn't help matters.

"Do people around here always draw conclusion immediately?" Kyle asked her loudly which made most students turn away, embarrassed that they had been caught staring.

"Yeah, I swear no one here besides me has a life." Jade answered equally loud and smirking. When students rushed away even quicker she smirked, before turning back to Kyle. "Don't worry about it they do that all the time with me and Beck."

The last sentence had slipped out before Jade could really think about it and when she realized what she had said her smirk dropped. She felt Kyle's concerned eyes on her and his hand at the small of her back, silently asking her if she was okay.

"They did. Now they seem to move on from the golden couple of Hollywood Arts. "Jade said sarcastically, hiding her pain and composing herself. "Anyway let's go to class. I don't want you to miss your salsa class."

"I still think I should have signed up for ballet, I mean there would be more girls right?"

"Believe me that doesn't work." Jade smirked, remembering Andre and Robbie who had tried that last year.

Four days later during lunch Jade and Kyle unknowingly added fuel to the rumors that they would be a couple in no time. Both of them were sitting at the table in the corner. Despite that Jade had allowed Cat to sit with them twice this week she had never again sat at her former table with the others. Kyle didn't seemed to mind spending his lunch break only with her, so this table had become theirs. None of them tried to speak quietly because that just wasn't in their characters, so quite a few people, including her former friends, could hear their conversation, not that Jade or Kyle cared.

"You have to help me with my salsa moves."

"Don't tell me what to do." Jade's immediately fired back.

"Alright let me reword that. Oh mighty Jade West would you do me the honor of helping me with learning the art of salsa?"

"You really want to lose your hair to my scissors, don't you." She casually pulled her beloved scissors out of her boot and twirled them in her fingers, but Kyle didn't look the least bit frightened, so she just continued. "If I remembered correctly, and I know I do, every time we dance back in Middle School you stepped on my toes, multiple times."

"I got better." Kyle protested.

"Sure, that's why you want my help with dancing."

"Come on I know you love dancing, so please for me."

"You're an idiot you know that, right?"

"But you love me for it."

"If you stop annoying me I'll help you with your salsa moves, but the first time you step on my toes I'm out."

A few tables away Tori looked surprised at her friends.

"Who would have thought that Jade knows how to dance salsa?"

"Beck and her took that class together last year, didn't you?" Robbie wasn't aware how much his words affected Beck, who only nodded.

It was true, they had taken that class together and Beck had really enjoyed it. Jade had looked beautiful in the red dress she had worn for their final performance and of course they had gotten a good grade, but that wasn't what he had loved most about it. While dancing with her they had moved in sync and he had felt that much closer to her. When they had danced it hold passion and dedication to each other and it was intimate in a way Beck couldn't describe. It was just like they were in their own world and in that moment Beck realized that Jade would shared that with Kyle now and not him any more. It got even worse when a few days later he saw them dancing together.

Beck and the rest of the group wanted to rehears for Sikowitz's play and seeing that the Blackbox Theater was already taken they went to the dance studio. There they were met with Jade and Kyle dancing. Seeing how Kyle held Jade so close to him was bad, but the worst part was how Jade let herself be lead by Kyle. Sure that was necessary for dancing, but Beck knew the deeper meaning of it. Jade never let anyone tell her what to do and dancing wasn't an exception. It had taken Beck time to get Jade to trust him and seeing that they were already dating for two years by the time they took salsa class it had only been a minor discussion between them, but Beck had still been aware of it. Seeing her know in Kyle arms, letting him lead her through the dance moves hurt, it hurt a lot. She trusted Kyle and for Jade that mean a lot.

"What are you doing here?" Jade voice was sharp when she saw who entered the room.

"That looked so perfect, just like in a movie." Cat smiled brightly.

"We want to rehearse for Sikowitz play, so can we please have the room?" Andre asked politely.

"Whatever. Come on Kyle get me some coffee."

"Why do I have to buy you coffee again?"

"To celebrate that you stopped stepping on my toes." Was Jade's only reply.

"Shouldn't you get me coffee then?"

"No, now stop been difficult and let's get out of here."

"Whatever you want Jewel, what ever you want." Kyle smirked at her and without regarding any of them went out of the room with Jade.
