It was a Friday night and I didn't really have anything to do. I didn't have to work for the weekend, since we were having some renovations done at the store, so I had a lot of free time over the next few days. I flopped face first onto my queen sized bed, covered in a purple comforter and pink sheets. I reach for my phone to call my best friend Cat, before realizing she is out of town to visit her parents this weekend - fuck. I'm on my own I guess. Not two seconds later, my phone buzzes and I look up. It's a text from one of my best friends from Hollywood Arts, before we graduated. Andre had sent me a text message "Hey Tor, I'm DJ-ing at this new club down on Hollywood BLVD. My vips get in for free, you in? I start at 8." I look at the clock, I have an hour, so I quickly text him back saying I'll be there, and he texts me directions.

I hurriedly start getting ready. I'm going out alone, but that doesn't mean I won't run into anyone. My makeup is freshened up as I change out of my jeans and t shirt that I wore to school. I stand in my closet in just my bra and panties as I look for my sexiest flashiest outfit. I find a short fitted dress that really accentuate my boobs, and slip it on. It's simple, the purple fabric hugs every inch of my body, the neck lines drops way to far and the hem line is way too short, and in the back, there is a little section missing, as if I'm not showing enough skin. I check my reflection out in the full length mirror, I look perfect, I think to myself, I flip my hair as I turn around to search for shoes. I grab my go-to pair, a pair of black zip up booties, five inches. Super sexy. I check the clock and it's 8:47. I grab my purse, spritz on a bit of my favorite perfume "Fantasy" by Britney Spears and I run out the door. I hail a cab and once inside, I give him the directions and we're off. We arrive to the club, and it's fairly obvious which club is new, I pay the driver and hop out. I get a text from Andre "Just go up to the bouncer, I gave him yours and Cats names.. Jades too in case." I make a weird face, didn't Andre know Cat was out of town? And really? What would I be doing with Jade? I guess I was more out of touch with Andre than I thought. I shrug it off as I approach the bouncer, He gives me a look and I say "Tori Vega? I'm with Andre" And he ushers me inside as I hear the crowd in line boo at me, sorry ladies, it helps to have hook ups.

I walk through the already crowded club, looking for the vip room. I quickly locate it, even in the dark, and I rush to the door. I tell the bouncer again who I am and who I'm with and he lets me in. I see Andre and he rushes over to me. It's been a while since we've seen each other, we've both been busy in college and working odd jobs here and there and auditions every now and then. That's pretty much what happened to our whole group after we graduated from Hollywood Arts. I keep in touch with Cat, mainly because she's my roommate, but I haven't seen Robbie Beck Andre, or even Jade. Last I heard Jade and Beck broke up shortly after graduation, but they were both okay with it. Robbie eventually ditched the puppet, FINALLY, and apparently Andre was a DJ now. After a bit of catching up, someone comes in and tells Andre he's almost up and he leaves me to get ready. He invites me along, but I tell him I'm in the mood to get a drink and to dance instead so I leave the vip room and head to the bar. I order a strawberry daiquiri and I sit with my back to the bar.

Sipping at my drink waiting for Andre to start playing. He comes out and shouts into the mic "This ones pretty old, but I updated it. It's sung by the one and only Tori Vega! Where you at girl?" The spotlight quickly finds me, followed by the gaze of everyone in the club. I feel a bit flustered, it's been a while since I've performed. I brush it off and give a wave, wondering why the hell Andre is playing a song I sang. I don't recognize the beat, it's more of a dub step vibe, but when the vocals come out I realized it's the song I first sang when I got into HA. Make It Shine. I decide not to get up to dance yet, I'm sipping on my daiquiri and close my eyes, sort of swaying back and forth in my seat. The song finishes up and smoothly transitions into the next, I think it's a Madonna song that he's remixed. I open my eyes as I realize my drink is gone and in it's place is a light buzz.

I suddenly make eye contact with a dark stranger across the room. He's hidden in the dark, but his eyes seem to glow and call out to me. He's staring into my soul intimidating me and pulling me in at the same time. I know him, I think? I'm not sure, I just know I want him. I set my glass down on the bar behind me, and slip off my seat, never breaking eye contact with this dark stranger. I start making my way through the crowd, heading towards him. I keep moving until I'm inches away from him, he smells delicious, musky. I still can't make out who he is, or where I know him from, but I can see his dark long hair and that he's probably around the same height as I am. I lean in and whisper in his ear "Hey, I'm Tori" he takes a slow breath and says "Tori, it's nice to see you again, how long has it been?"

I gasp, I know that voice. I haven't heard that voice in two, almost three years. Instintively I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him in the crook of his neck. He laughs at my excitement and hugs me back. We loosen our hold on each other, just enough so we look each other in the eyes. I take a deep breath and close my eyes, thinking of the words to say. I exhale as I start to speak, but he puts his finger over my mouth "Shh, don't speak. Not now, just dance with me." I nod, and we continue dancing. Wait, I didn't even notice we had started dancing. I just shake my head a bit, to clear my thoughts, I just need to have a good time. I think he picks up on my nerves because he tells me "It's alright Tori.. Just breathe. You look beautiful by the way. I'm so glad to see you." I hide my face in his shoulder, to hide the fact that I'm blushing extremely hard right now. My face must be brighter and redder than Cat's hair! I reach up to run my hand through his gorgeous hair and I whisper to him, "Thank you, you don't look half bad yourself, Beck. It really has been too long, hasn't it?" He laughs and bit before pulling me closer. I can't believe this, I haven't seen or really heard from Beck since graduation, and now here I am, in the dark corner of a night club, dancing in his arms. And he thinks I'm beautiful. See I'm not sure how I feel about him. Sure he's a great guy, but do I really have feelings for him? I think the butterflies in my stomach do. I've missed him so much. I really wonder what happened between him and Jade. Jade. Suddenly I tense up as the girl that tormented me throughout high school saunters into my thoughts. What would she do if she saw Beck and I? Would she stab me with her sharpest scariest scissors? Ugh I can't think about that, I close my eyes and shake my head again to clear my is getting old, nothing slips by Beck. He pulls my head close to his chest with one hand and he leans down and kisses me on the head, I blush again. He's about to say something when Andre yells into the mic "Thanks everybody! I'm out!" And the announcer calls up the next guest DJ. Beck pulls my chin up and looks my in the eyes, "You wanna get out of here Vega? Catch up a little bit?" He smiles at me. Should I say yes? I'm not sure if that look in his eyes is that of a friend who sincerely wants to catch up, or if it's something more. Something in my gut screams that it's something more, but I push that feeling down. Beck and I are friends. That's all we've ever been. I nod and he puts his arm around me and leads me out of the club.

He hails a cab and gives the driver his home address, which is shockingly not far from my place. We sit in silence, and Beck reaches over and grabs my hand, lacing our fingers together. I'm confused but it feels nice, so I accept it and give his hand a light squeeze which he returns. I start to blush again so I turn to look out the window. Why the hell is he making me blush so much? I haven't felt this way about anyone in a long time. I decide I'm just glad to see an old friend again. That's what Beck is, and always has been. Sure he's gorgeous, tall, extremely talented, and an amazing guy, but I don't think I've ever had romantic feelings towards him. If I did, Jade must have scared them out of me. Their she is again. Jade, the ice queen that haunted my time at Hollywood Arts. I have to admit, I somewhat missed her. Wait, did I just admit to missing Jade? The cab slows to a stop and I'm pulled out of my confusing thoughts, as Beck lets go of my hand and pulls his wallet out to pay the driver. We say goodnight and I follow him up to his apartment, once inside, I start freaking out. I'm in Beck's apartment, alone, somewhat buzzed, and alone. Well alone with Beck.

I'm pulled out of my thoughts once again as Beck turns on a light, sits down on the couch and pats the seat next to him, I cross the room and sit down next to him. Now I finally get a good look at the room. It's tasteful, so Beck. The couch seems a bit old, must be vintage. A little coffee table sits in front of us, Beck slips off his classic combat boots and sets his feet on the table as he rests his arm around me shoulder, I take a deep breath, my heart is racing. In front of us, on the opposite side of the small living room is a tv, nothing fancy or extravagant, just something simple. It's set on a wooden entertainment center, underneath is a small collection of movies. Beck notices my wandering eyes and sighs, "You okay Tori?" I nod, but I'm guessing he's not convinced. He removes his arm from my shoulder and he sits up, facing me. I look him in the eyes and we sort of stare at each other for what seems like eternity. He breaks the silence once more and offers me something to drink, but I decline. He leans back and sighs again. I wonder if I'm boring him, or if he wants me to leave. Why did he even invite me here then?

I decide to speak up, rather than sit here in silence forever, "So this is your place, it's really nice Beck. It's really comfortable and inviti-" Before I can even finish my sentence, Beck's lips collide with mine. He brings his hand up and cups my face on one side while the other wraps around my back. At first I'm shocked, but it's nice, I start kissing him back, and my hands, having a mind of their own, make their way up to Beck's gorgeous head of hair. Running my fingers through it, he moans into my mouth a little. Then he pulls away, we're both breathing heavy. He looks away from me "Look Tori, I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have done that. That's not why I invited you back, I really did want to catch up, you just look so beautiful and I don't know I'm really sorry." I giggle and he looks up at me, a mix of confusion and hurt on his face, I shake my head and say "Beck, I did kiss you back ya know.. I mean it did shock me but it was nice." I crawl towards him and wrap my arms around his neck as I kiss him again. He picks me up and I wrap my legs around his waist and he sets me down on the couch and lays on top of me. I'm not sure where this is going, but I can't really think much when Beck is kissing me. I'm in heaven. I smile and he giggles a bit. "It really is nice to see you again Tori." He says with a laugh, and I laugh back. "What do you say, we uhh, get some sleep?" I nod, "The bed room is this way, if you don't mind sleeping with me- Uh fuck I mean, sleeping in the same bed as me." His face turns bright red, I can tell he's about as nervous as I am, well was twenty minutes ago. I giggle as I get up, I grab his hand and say "Well Mr. Oliver, lead the way and I shall follow," with a wink. He leads me to his bedroom and we fall asleep not long after our heads hit the pillows.

A/N - Okay so, go easy on me here! I've never written any fan fiction before, but lately I've been getting the itch to write, so I figured, why not write a Victorious ff? I mean, the characters are already written, although I do kind of make them a bit more personal, I figured it would help. The reason I called this story Hold It Against Me is because I was stuck when thinking of a plot, and said song came on, and it's my favorite. I figured, why not take from the song, and have Tori meet someone in a club? Anyways, criticism is welcome, please! I'm not too confident in my writing, so anything is good.
