Jade POV

When Cat and I arrive at school the hall is crowded with students like usual but I still immediately spot Beck talking with Tori, Andre and Robbie by Vega's locker. I just glare at them and Cat follows my gaze and starts brushing the back of my hand with her thumb.

Vega sees us and she says something to Beck who turns to look at me. I look away.

"Are you okay?" Cat asks me timidly. I notice I was squeezing her hand and I let her go.

"Yeah... Sorry" I tell her

"For what?" she asks me with a smile

"Almost crushing your hand" I reply

She giggles massaging her own hand "It's OK. As long as I get to hold your hand..." she blushes "I need some books from my locker... See you in Sikowitz's class ok?" she tells me

"Sure. Later Cat" I tell her.

She nods and gets closer. She grabs my hand again briefly giving it a light squeeze looking at me, before walking away. I saw that Beck noticed our interaction. I smirk at him... What Beck? Jealous much? Maybe he is starting to understand how I feel when I have to see him doing this kind of stuff with other girls all the time.

Cat bounces where him and the others are and I hear her greeting them with a perky "Hiiii!" before she goes to her locker as I lean against my own scissors adorned locker looking at them and pretending to be uninterested.

After some time Robbie follows Cat to her locker and I saw them talking... The boy has a huge crash for her from ages... But she has someone else on her mind: me. I smile looking at how pathetic he looks while trying to hit on her while Cat just looks at him, giggling every now and then at what he says, but just because she is too polite to tell him that she is not even remotely interested in him.

"Hey Jade..." Oh speaking of losers with hopeless crushes, here's Sinjin.

I don't even turn to look at him. I just groan exasperated.

"I heard about you and Beck... If you want a new boyfriend..." he is saying but I cut him off

"Beat it Sinjin!" I yell at him and he immediately runs away

Cat heards me and looks at me from her pink locker adorned with a ladybug hidden behind some flowers. I look at her motioning towards Sinjin and shaking my head while mimicking the gesture of pointing a gun to my temple with my hand. She laughs for real this time while Robbie is still talking to her. Cat does an eyes roll tilting her head lightly towards Robbie and looking at me and I understand she is also exasperated from the boy and let out a chuckle...

"Good to see you're in a good mood" Beck's voice makes me turn towards him. I didn't even see him approaching as I was so distract from a certain redhead who kissed me last night while thinking I was asleep... Without knowing that I liked it...

"I am. But not thanks to you" I reply sternly to him.

"Look Jade can we... talk? In private?" he asks me

I let out a sarcastic little laugh crossing my arms "There's nothing to say. You didn't call me once yesterday. That just shows how much you care about me. Go on... Go tell that Alyssa bitch you're free now. Or go hit on Vega just so you can have her like you've always wanted ever since her first day of school. I don't fucking care anymore." I spit at him

He frowns at me and brushes his hair with one hand before he takes me by surprise gripping my wrist and dragging me to the janitor's closet.

"What the...? Let me go Oliver! Now!" I yell at him trying to resist but he is stronger than me. I see Cat looking at me worried along the way and also Tori and Andre who move away from us.
