Chapter Three

[3]

After spending a bit of time at Tori's, Beck decided to go back home to the comfort of his RV.

"I miss her," he mumbled under his breath as he walked inside, brushing aside a black tank top on the floor with his foot.

He plopped on his couch, pulling his laptop on his lap as he scrolled through Jade's page on the Slap.

He came across one of their videos together and he clicked on it.

"Tell me something you like."

"Like, or love?"

Jade shrugged. "Love."

Beck had a goofy grin playing on his lips as he replied, "you."

Jade smiled. "Aw."

She walked over to him and sat on his lap, pulling him in for a kiss.

Beck sighed, leaning back into the couch and running his fingers through his hair.

He missed her.

Way too much.

Even though he knew he shouldn't have, he clicked on another video of theirs.

"Say you love me."

"Magic word."

"Please?"

"I love you."

He wanted to cry.

And he did. He couldn't help it.

He closed the laptop, put his face in his hands, and cried.

"I miss him, Cat," Jade sighed, staring up at the ceiling as she laid on her bed.

Cat played with Mr. Purple, her stuffed giraffe, as she replied, "he misses you too."

Jade sat up, staring at the perky red head. "He does?"

Cat nodded. "Yep! Earlier today when we were hanging out at Tori's, he was jealous."

Jade rolled her eyes. "Jealous of what?"

"Jealous of you hanging out with Zach."

Jade's eyes widened. "Oh."

"Yep. He totally misses you."

"Just because he's jealous doesn't mean that he misses me," Jade responded, staring down at her lap.

"That's exactly what it means."

"Whatever."

Cat sighed. "Jadey, you love him. He loves you. Just get back together already, it's not that hard."

Jade blew a strand of hair out of her face. "It is that hard, Cat! Our relationship is toxic...everyone thinks so! We break up, we kiss, we get back together. God, it's so unhealthy."
