Beth POV

"Next up to the stage we have, Jade West."

I watch as she walked onto the stage with her back up singers. She looked stunning, like a fallen angel. I laugh quietly to myself, knowing I just called Jade the devil. I move away from Quinn and Santana and go towards the snacks table.

"Hey Beth, your song was amazing." Tori said, standing next to me.

I look at her and smile, "Thanks." I answered, distracted, I turn all my attention to Jade on the stage, waiting for her to sing.

"Good evening all, not that I owe you an explanation or anything but this song is for that one person, they never gave up on me, even when we were miles away from each other." Jade finished her little speech and nodded to the band who started playing.

I could help but watch her every move. (Play the video)

You think you know me
But you don't know me
You think you own me
But you can't control me

You look at me
And there's just one thing that you see
So listen to me
Listen to me

I move closer to the stage, needing to hear more.

You push me back
I push you back
Harder, harder
You scream at me
I scream at you
Louder, l-l-l-l-louder

I'm dangerous, I'm warning you
But you're not afraid of me
And I can't convince you
You don't know me

I frown at the lyrics, licking my lips, thinking to myself, Oh I do definitely know you, West.

You think you got me
But you don't get me
You think you want me
But you don't know what you're getting into

There's so much more to me
then what you think you see
So listen to me
Just listen to me

You push me back
I push you back
Harder, harder
You scream at me
I scream at you
Louder, l-l-l-l-louder

I'm dangerous, I'm warning you
But you're not afraid of me
And I can't convince you
You don't know me

I have moved closer to stage, I am practically at the stage stairs, still just listening.

And the longer that you stay, the ice is melting
And the pain feels okay, it feels okay (hey)

You push me back
I push you back

I start heading up the stairs, to the side of the stage, she looks at me and starts singing at me.
