Bite Me

Chapter One- Bite Me Vega

"I brought the alcohol Vega it was your job to order the food. It was a simple plan. Meet at your place. Andre covers music. Beck gets snacks. Cat brings Cat. And Robbie exists. You had one job!" Jade shouted over the kitchen counter.

The gang was enjoying their last night altogether in the same city. They had graduated two months ago and had been enjoying their summer but soon everybody was splitting up to different parts of the world.

Beck was heading up to Vancouver. Apparently he landed a semi-regular role on a teen drama. He said it was a small part but everyone suspected once it aired he'd be written into more episodes. After all he was good looking, single, and talented. He was set.

Cat was staying in town with her roommate Sam. They're babysitting buisiness has taken off and they were planning keeping it going. Robbie was off to a weird performance school which everyone assumed meant clown college. He and Cat were planning on keeping their long distance relationship going. They figured after six months they could do it. Jade gave them two months.

Andre has scored a job as a lead musician on a late night talk show. So he was moving to New York in a week's time. Already had an apartment lined up and everything.

Tori had already started working on her album. After her performance a year ago the label had signed her to an album deal. Only thing was she delayed it til she graduated. So now she was about halfway through and working hard. Everyone had heard the first four songs and knew they would be hits. After all Tori was going to dominate the pop scene.

Which left Jade. Jade had gotten into a prestigious writing program out in Pennsylvania. It was a four year program that would likely end up with her having a fully finished screenplay and stage play. Nobody knew how hard this program was to get into. Jade didn't want to brag but she was only one of four other students in it. She was moving out on Monday but she kept that to herself too.

Everybody had decided to go all in on one last crazy night. Tori's parents were out of town visiting Trina at college so it left the house wide open to party in. Tori offered everyone to stay the night but everybody had declined. Jade didn't even want to be here. She should've been packing as it was anyway.

"I ordered the pizza an hour ago! I don't control the driver?" Tori shouted back leaning over the counter.

As if on cue the doorbell rang. "I got it!" Cat shouted sprinting up to get the door. She opened it revealing the delivery guy holding a stack of pizzas on the other side. She quickly grabbed the stack from him and slammed the door on his face. "Pizzas here!" She ran to the kitchen dropping them onto the counter.

Jade pulled a box to her and opened it up ripping out a slice. Everyone else saw this as a gesture to fight over the remaining boxes. Jade pulled her rum and coke closer taking a drink. She hated the taste but it was far better than drinking gin or vodka since that was all she could afford at the store.

"Alright. What's one thing everyone regrets doing in high school?" Andre asked through a mouthful of food.

"Getting back with Jade." Beck said casually. Jade's head snapped glaring at him. "Not that I regret it but I think we were right to end it the first time and the second try felt forced." Jade looked away grumbling. They broke up halfway through senior year because it just wasn't working. And it couldn't be helped they just weren't right for each other.

"I regret not asking Kitty Cat out sooner." Robbie blurted our cutting the tension.

"I regret not eating more bibble! Specially since you meanies won't let me have any ever!" Cat cried out.

"I regret dating those three girls at the same time." Andre said proudly.

"Yeah but it was worth it in the end." Beck said patting him on the back. The two laughed.
