"Hey, we're not done talking about this." Jade argued as she chased Beck down the stairs. Blake was following the two not really including herself in the conversation. "I am." Beck shot back. "Well, I'm not."

Beck rolled his eyes, "Listen, Alyssa Vaughn is just a friend." Jade's jaw tensed up, "Yeah, a friend who's already sent you six text messages today." Blake crossed her arms as she watched the two.

Beck's phone dinged again, indicating a text message, "Seven." Beck tilted his head, "You don't know that's her." "Is it?" Beck pulled out his phone and discreetly shoved it back in his pocket, "What's your favorite tropical fruit?"

"The mango." Jade answered quickly, "And I don't like your new little relationship with Alyssa Vaughn." Blake quietly groaned as she leaned against the railing. She desperately wanted to leave but didn't want to upset either of them.

"It's a text message." Beck argued. "And what does it say?" Jade sassed, "Maybe, "hi, Beck. My daddy just got richer, and I got prettier. Let's make out." Blake had to admit, she hated when the two fought. They always fought but not like this.

Beck held up his head, "Okay, let me see if I understand you." Jade nodded, "Let's see if you do." Bake rolled her eyes as she watched the two continue to fight.

"Because we date," Beck started including Blake, "I can't be friends with other girls." Blake raised her hands, "I didn't say anything."

"You can be friends with ugly girls," Jade suggested, "but not girls who are gorgeous socialites, who text message you a hundred times a day." Beck shook his head, "You know, you-" Beck stopped as Tori walked down the stairs, "Tori, tori, can you come here?" Tori scrunched her face and walked towards the trio, "What?"

"If you were my girlfriend-" Beck started but was cut off, by Jade, "Oh, great way to start the question."

Beck raised his hand to quiet her, "Would you be all freaked out that I'm just friends with Alyssa Vaughn?"

"Who cares what she thinks?" Jade said crossing her arms. Blake wanted to disappear. "Honestly, I wouldn't love it." And just like that Jade switched her mind, "I care what she thinks.

"How can you say that you don't eve-" Beck started as Tori shook her head, "You know, I really don't wanna be in the middle of this."

"No, you stay right here." Jade pulled her back. "No." "You don't think a girlfriend should just trust her boyfriend?" Beck asked. "No, I do." Jade pushed her aside, "Get out of here, Tori." "I'd love to."

"Stay." Beck said. Tori whined as she walked back over, "Why don't you ask Blake?" Blake shook her head, "No." Just as she tried to slip away Beck grabbed her arm.

"All right, you know what?" Jade started and Tori shook her head. Blake knew exactly what was gonna happen. An instant frown appeared on her face.

"Tell me what." Beck asked as Tori protested, " No, no, don't tell him what." "We're done." Jade spat. 

"Jade." Blake whispered as Tori yelled at the girl.

"So, you're breaking up with us?" Beck asked looking at the girl next to him. "No, no, no, no, no. She's not." Tori tried to argue but Jade was persistent, "Yeah, I am."

"Oh, she is." Tori pouted as Jade walked away. "You're being ridiculous." Beck yelled at her. "What do you care? I'm not your girlfriend anymore." Jade yelled back as she walked away. Tori slowly backed away from the two as Beck slowly turned to face Blake.

"Blake?" Beck started but was cut off by her shoving her hand in his face, "Don't" Blake said and walked away from the boy but not before a single tear fell from her eye.

Blake had avoided the two most important people in her life for a whole week. She cried herself to sleep half of the nights and skipped a couple days of school. Her mother had been contently checking up on her. Usually, she didn't mind but she wanted to be left alone.

The girl grabbed her headphones and a book from her bookshelf. Plopping on her bed she put one of the headphones in her ear and clicked her playlist "Yellow" by Coldplay began to play as she opened her book.

Just as she began to start the chapter a knock at her door broke her trance, "Mom! I said I'm fine." Blake yelled at the door but that didn't stop them. The door creaked open making Blake look up from her spot. Jade and Beck stood in the doorway of her room, "Your mom let us in." Jade said softly.

Blake scoffed and looked back down, "Then you know the way out." Beck sighed, "Please Blake. Can we talk?" Beck gave the girl a sad smile as he looked in her bloodshot eyes. She wasn't crying but he knew she was, and it was because of them.

Blake shut her book and pulled out her headphones. She sat up pulling her knees to her chest making herself smaller, not wanting to be here. Blake gave a small hum and gave a slightly annoyed nod. Jade and Beck gave each other a look, "We're sorry." Jade started and Beck stepped in, "We didn't mean to throw you in the middle of it."

"Yeah, but you did." Blake snapped at the two, "I don't want to be in a relationship if you're always fighting." Jade nodded, "I know. We promise we'll do better." Beck nodded, "Just please take us back."

Blake shrugged, "Why." Jade bit her lip as Beck walked to the side of the bed, "Cause you're the best thing that has ever happened to us and we'd be stupid to let you go like that." Blake looked at Beck not breaking eye contact before looking at Jade, but she still felt Beck's eyes on her.

Blake's eyes fell as Beck's words soaked in. They actually wanted her. Blake's eyes filled with tears as she looked back at the two. Both of their faces dropped as they wanted to hug and kiss the tears away. Blake leaned her head against her knees as she looked at them.

"You can't leave me." Blake whispered out, "Ever." Jade shook her head, "We'd never." Beck nodded, "Never again, sweetheart." Blake couldn't stop the tears now. They fell from her face as she gave the two a small smile. The two walked on either side of the girl hugging her and kissing her cheek. "I'm really sorry." Jade said as she rested her head against Blake's.

"We both are." Beck added leaning against her shoulder. Blake fell against the two no longer holding herself up. "It's okay. We're okay now." Blake sniffled as the two nodded into the girl.


















A/N

Thank you for all the love you've given me over the past year on this book!
I never expected people to actually like this book and I did consider discontinuing it at one point but I'm glad I didn't!

this was my last prewritten chapter so I gotta find some time to write. Hopefully it will be soon!
