Disclaimer: I do not own 'VicTorious or anything related to it.

I guess I should be more surprised. I mean, so many people, myself included, thought I was going to marry Beckett James Oliver. Who wouldn't want to be with him? With his long wonderful, dark hair, his tan, his not too buff body, dazzling smile and that bright future ahead of him.

But I knew what he had cost me. I loved him, but he had cost me a relationship with my father, my father warned me from the start about him but I wanted to hear none of it. I remember our big fight like it was yesterday...

'Jadey?

Jade?

Jadelyn, for the love of God would you please just listen to me?' My father, Reginald West, begged whilst chasing me up the stairs, but I was having none of it;

"No, dad! You and Mother and Jason think just because he lives in an RV" I said while entering my bedroom, "and dresses like that guy Bender from the Breakfast Club, that he is automatically bad news!". I shouted as I ran to my laptop and logged on to 'The Slap'.

I hear my father sigh as he entered my room, 'Jadelyn, we are just looking out for you. We don't want to see you hurt and I honestly thought I taught you well enough to see through a guy's bullshit! But fine, do what you want. Just know even Andrew, Caterina and Robert are worried.' I then felt him kiss me on the forehead and as he walked out of my room, he turned and spoke the following words in a voice of...disappointment, 'I will always put Jason's, yours, even Cat, Dre and Rob's happiness before mine, we as your parents love you all so much. Never forget that'.

And that was the last time I could look my father in the eye.

You're probably wondering who Caterina, Andrew and Robert are:

Let's start with Rob.

Robert Rexton Shapiro is the nerd but ultimately good-natured one in our little group. He is the same age as me (A year younger than our friends) and is one of my best friends.

Robbie is a technological genius and an amazing ventriloquist and comedian. He has dark, curly hair which is and has always been in the style of an afro. He is tall, pale-ish and a bit scrawny but his heart is always in the right place.

He is the son of Donald Christopher Shapiro (And only child), who owns the rights to my favourite game series, 'Quiet Hills', and the horror movie franchise 'Seen' as well as my personal favourite 'The Scissoring 1 and 2'.

Mama Shapiro is home fitness DVD mogul, Diana Christine Shapiro and is a proud follower of the Jewish faith.

Up next is, Caterina or as I like to call her, Kitty Cat.

Caterina Maria Valentine is literally the sweetest person on this earth. Period. No questions or doubts about it.

Kitty is tiny at 5'2" but has a personality so large it makes up for her petite figure. She has long brown curly hair which she dyed red velvet cupcake red in honor of her favourite snack, she also straightens it. She is pretty tan with the most adorable brown-doe eyes. Some people might say she's ditzy, but she is actually on the Honor Roll at Hollywood Arts.

She might be small in structure but Kitty has one of the most powerful voices around. And her acting skills? Magnificent.

Cat is the last of three children born into the Valentine family. She has two older brothers, Steven who is an advocate and Toby who has downs syndrome but we love him all the same.

Mr Michael Valentine is a rocket scientist and designs only the best space shuttles for NASA.

Mrs Ariana Valentine is a psychologist and is the best at what she does. She also makes the best red velvet and blue velvet cupcakes and cakes. Ever.

Caterina is a musical and acting genius. She fools Victoria Vega, Beckett Oliver and everyone outside of our, 'non-traditional' family everyday into thinking she is dumb as heck. Did I mention she is older than me and Rob by a full year?

Then we have André or as we call him, Dre.

Dre is the true definition of a musical prodigy. He plays almost every instrument you can think of, composes amazing songs on the spot and has the voice and cool of an angel.

Andrew Leon Harris III is the only child of record company owner, Andrew Leon Harris II. I swear Daddy II (Get it? no? whatever.) has the best ear and eye when it comes to recognizing talent.

Doreen Ruby Harris is Dre's (and my) mom. She runs the 'Dingo' channel and is the executive producer of 'That's a drag'.

André is tall, dark and strong, just like my coffee. He has dark brown dreads that he has grown since we were kids, he has dark skin and the most intense brown eyes. He has a sense of humor that only our family gets.

Me? I'm Jadelyn

Jade, Jadey, Jay. I'm what they call a quintuple threat. I sing, act, dance, write and direct.

I was born Jadelyn August Millington-West. I have dark hair which I'm letting grow again, what people call 'piercing' blue-green eyes, pale skin and a banging body standing at 5'8", I'm winning at life.

My father is the CEO of the 'Pear' company

My mom is Karen Millington-West, a former supermodel turned fashion mogul.

My older brother is Jason Reginald Millington-West, who is studying medicine at UCLA.

So what do a faux redhead, a nerd, a musical genius and a mean girl have in common? They are the products of a perfect combination of money, intelligence, sex appeal and no relationship with their parents.

I grew up with Kitty, Rob, Dre, Jase, Steve and Toby. But I was always closest to the first three, so when I started dating Beck, André warned me, over and over again but like I did with my father, I ignored him. But André, Cat and Robbie were the first to leave Vega's poker game night turned dramatic break up stage, and follow me. I expected them, especially André to judge me.

They did not.

They held me as I cried.

They slept over to make sure I was alright.

André even took me out for coffee and you know what realized?

André made me feel warm.

And I smiled more around him.

And he didn't put me on 'time-outs'.

So I kissed him.

And I liked it.

And the rest is history.

I'm not saying our relationship is perfect, but it's damn hell worth it.

AN: Hope you enjoyed that.

Please review! Bye!
