Completely Perfect? -In Progress-

4. Beach Invitation

Disclaimer: I wish I was able to see Liz Gillies' performance live, but it was impossible - just like the idea of owning Victorious.

My total bad. I forgot to mention that Jade's appearance is when she hasn't rebel against her parents yet, if you haven't guessed. Imagine her in the flashback in The Great Ping Pong Scam. Yup, that's her. So enjoy!

DURING - GYM CLASS

Beck's.

I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have even talked to her. It's just that... oh, I don't know. That girl just sparked my curiosity for some reason. The way she isolate herself from others, looking completely uninterested and rude to practically everyone, including the coach - which is saying something. Either she thinks she's too cool for gym class, or she's trying to make some kind of statement about how she don't care what other people thinks of her.

Now, I'm stuck debating with myself whether or not to follow her down the bleachers and try to apologize, or I'm just going to say 'fuck it', and find some other girls who won't show me such attitude to talk to. I sighed, and was about to stand up to move towards her when I hear a voice coming from the left of me, "Hey!"

I turn to see a girl with wavy brown hair, wearing a light pink tee with a picture of a baby grizzly bear printed on the front, along with light blue ripped jeans and hot pink sneakers, advancing towards me. "Hey." I flash her a smile as she glaze at me from head to toes, "I haven't seen you around before..." she pause for a moment, before smiling brightly at me, "You're new, right?"

I took a brief look at the girl earlier, just to catch her glancing over at us with a disgusted look on her face, before proceeding to rebury her face in her hands. I turn back to face the girl speaking to me, "Yeah, I'm new." I offer her a hand to shake, "My name's Beck Oliver, and you are?"

She giggles as she sits down next to me, before taking my hand and shaking it, "I'm Meredith," she leans in towards me slightly and I get a whiff of her perfume, and damn, girl smells like freshly picked strawberries, "My daddy owns a cupcake shop." I made that exaggerated fake-surprise look, which I doubt she caught on, "Really? What's the name of it?"

"Frank's Cupcakes!" she exclaim, beaming at me with pride twinkling in her eyes, "Have you heard of it?" I nodded, as to say that I was taken aback was an understatement. I thought it was just an ordinary shop, but this girl's father is the guy who owns the shop that makes legit mouth-watering cupcakes!

Just as I was about to ask her more questions, her pearphone beeped. She promptly pull her phone out from her tote bag, read through the text briefly and grinned, before typing a response and hitting send. She dumps the phone back into her bag before looking back up at me with an apologetic look plastered on her pretty face, "Sorry 'bout that."

I shrug and offered her a smile as she continues on, "Me and my friends are going to the beach this weekend," she says, "It's sort of like a custom for us to hit the beach every last weekend of the month, except when the weather gets cold, of course," she giggles while rolling her eyes, "You should come!"

I glance out of the corner of my eyes to the girl, who is now looking over at the coach with a bored expression and pretending she's not listening to my conversation. Pfft, I can totally tell that she's listening. She's not that good of an actress. Well, if she wants a show, I'll give her a show.

"Yeah, sure. Thanks!" I flash her my most dashing smile, "I love surfing. Have you ever been surfboarding?" "No, but I've been dying to try it!" she perks up, but the smile was soon wiped off her face, "Well, that is, if someone was willing to teach me how..." she trails off, looking down at her sneakers. I took that as a cue to reach into her bag, where I can see the top of her blue pearphone peeking out, and pull it out.
