In Our Youth

Invincible

Jade was currently helping her mother do the washing. "But Mama you don't understand! He's been such a jerk"! Her mother smiled. "But Jade the question is, has Gaston ever apologized to someone other then you?", her mother questioned. Jade frowned. "Not that I've seen". Her mother nodded. "Exactly my point Jade. Gaston cares about you more then you think. He just has a different way of showing you". Jade smirked. "Weren't you telling me just a few days ago that he had changed, that he was different?", Jade said. "Besides, Gaston doesn't love anyone other then himself". "But you told me that  he can't change"? Jade bit her lip. "And I was wrong". 

   "Bonjour"! Antoine approached them. He wore blue. Jade frowned. She much preferred red. She shook her head. You fool! Stop thinking about him! "Bonjour Antoine, how is your leg"? "Much better, thank you for asking". Jade nodded. Antoine smiled, showing off his teeth. "I heard you and Gaston got in quite the battle". "Just a fight Antoine, nothing more". He raised his brow. "A fight that ruined the relationship, right?", he said hopeful. 

   Jade frowned. Right before she explained to Antoine, Gaston showed up. "Not at all Antoine. Still happy as ever", he said, throwing his arm around her shoulder. Gaston glared at him. Antoine frowned. Jade saw a chance. "Yes very happy", she grabbed his hand. "Alright then. I hope we'll meet again", he said as he walked off. "I hope not", she muttered under her breath. Gaston removed his arm from her shoulders. He started walking off. Jade watched with anger. "You can't just do that"! Gaston turned with a smirk. "Watch me". And off he went. 

"You jerk"! "You wench". Jade picked up a nearby  rock and launched it. "Hey"! Gaston cowered as it flew by his head. He turned around. Several people stopped to stare at the scene. "Y-you coward"! "Your so dumb"! (A/N, Dumb as in this meaning, Dumb: unable to speak correctly or quickly)"I speak just fine thank you very much. You-you". Jade didn't know how else to insult him. "You... your dumb"! "I just used that insult! Are you out of insults? Because I have many more"! Jade was shaking from anger. Her mother stood up. "Gaston! No wonder my husband hated you so! You fool! You're so wrapped up in yourself you care about no one else!", her mother retorted.

   "I'm not"! His arms flew into the air from frustration. "Okay your wrong! I'm different! I... I love her damn it"! Gaston looked at Jade. Antoine made his way threw the crowd. He stomped over to Gaston, shoving him. Gaston managed to maintain his balance. "Gaston! You know I love her"! Gaston grabbed his brother by his coat. "And you know I told you to leave and never come back again! So leave before you become one of my trophies". Gaston let go. Antoine wound his arm back and punched Gaston in the face. Gaston fell backwards. Antoine then delivered a swift kick to his ribs. Gaston coughed up blood. "Other way around baby brother", Antoine smirked. He stood, dusting himself off, and walked over to Jade.

   "My dearest Jade, how would you like to accompany me on a trip to the hills". Jade looked at Gaston. Blood trickled from his mouth onto the ground, his eyes shut tight, and his arms wrapped around his torso. It made Jade upset. "You're idiotic if you think I'd ever go with you", Jade spat. She pushed him out of the way. Gaston lay on the ground, in pain. "Hey, it's okay", she knelt down and cupped his face. Gaston opened his eyes. "Jade, I'm Gaston. I'm invincible". She shook her head chuckling. "No one is invincible. It's not possible". "I just made it possible, darling". "I hate the power you have over me, Gaston". He smiled. "The power you have over me is even greater". Tears rolled down her cheek. "I hate you", she said. Gaston cupped her face. "But I love you". "I love you to Gaston". 

   In the far corner someone who you would've never suspected seethed with jealousy. Belle.
