Tori's POV
Jade is staring at me again, the "what are you" glare I have grown kinda use to, I've been here for a year, yet everyone acts like I have always been here, apart from Jade, she makes me think too much. Closing my locker a bit too forcefully, I sing Monster under my breath as I go to Sikowitz's class. The class starts with Sikowitz making an entrance though the window, Jade staring at me, Cat laughing about something her brother had done. Normal. Then Sikowitz tells us our assignment.
"Righty-oh, the assignment is to create a small piece with your drawn partner, including an argument and a stage kiss." Sikowitz says like it's the smallest task in the history of forever. I nervously look around, seeing Jade West smile – or rather smirk- at me. "REVEAL YOUR VI- I mean partner Jade"
"Vega" Jade says. I visibly gulp and turn to Sikowitz, pleading with my eyes. He just shakes his head at me as I stand up and excuse myself to use the bathroom. Singing Misguided Ghosts as I thought about the assignment. Then I think of Jade, think about how her whole 'mean hard emotionless look' isn't really her – a front- to me, I honestly don't believe she is the callous and cruel person she seems, there's something deeper to her and I'm going to find out what it is, or I'm not called Victoria Vega
Jade's POV
I think I am going insane, I mean, Robbie insane. Beck just ended it with me; because he found out I'm bisexual. Did… Is he that shallow? I mean, we are… were the 'power' couple. He was a bad boy Romeo, and I the Gothic Juliet. Mind you, they both die in the end don't they? I can explain that bit. I can't explain why I look forward to hanging with Vega rehearsing, so much, I know right? Insane. I feel like she sees through me, and that should make me hate her more right? Anyways, I'm on my way to hers in tears, because of the whole beck thing. I pull up in her drive about to break down all over again. "Jade? Are you okay?!" Tori exclaims after appearing out of nowhere – well out of her house I guess. After shaking my head, she leads me inside and gives me a coffee, made exactly how I love it. While I drink she sings softly, as she strokes my spare hand with her thumb.
(Tori in bold - Italics is both of them)
When I was younger, I saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart and I watched
As he tried to reassemble it
And my momma swore that
She would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist
The lyrics drip into my mind and I can't help but half-smile. She knows my favorite song by Paramore
But darling, you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
Maybe I know, somewhere deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone
Or keep a straight face
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance
And up until now I had sworn to my self that I'm content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk
But you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof, it's not a dream, oh
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing
"Jade, you wanna stay for the night- erm because its friday and er we gotta work on the play" Tori says, blushing and tripping on her own tongue. i hide my blush and mumble weakly "sure, thanks Ve-Tori"
A/N:Sorry this sucked, its my first chapter, I'll update if i get some reviews, constructive criticism is welcome - I'll try not to go all Cat on you
