... "Carly only pulled it a little bit... hurts like an almighty bitch, but I'm not dying yet." "Ever," he said, helping her to her feet. "Let me get you to shore. We need to get you to a hospital." "Just don't... ever leave me again," she whispered, wincing with each step she took, even if he was practically carrying her. "And don't ever let an-other woman fall in love with you." "Besides you, right," he tried to joke, unable to process much of anything. "Pretty sure you used up everything I could give you," she said, rubbing her stomach softly, feeling the deep pain, both physical and emotional that stung with a bare touch. "We're never going to be ok again." Freddie tried not to focus on her words, but he knew the moment she said them that she was right. This wasn't going to be some fairy tale ending. This was something apocalyptic for a relationship. But as he looked at her, he felt a twinge of hope: They were alive. It wasn't much... but for the moment, it was enough.

So when she reached a pretty steep drop from a cliff nearly 50 feet up, she paused knowing that it had just as much of a chance of killing her as Carly. That pause was all Carly needed to reach the talented former Goth and soon the girls began to circle one another, each hyper vigilant of what the other might do. They gave each other a few fake lunges, until finally Jade went for it, practically grunting as she tackled, hoping to knock the former web star off the high cliff. Carly, however, saw the move coming from a mile away and dodged her without much trouble, and the Hollywood Arts mean girl lost her footing and for the second time in a week, started to fall from a cliff.
