Author's Note: Hi..my name is Yaz. This is a first time I've ever written a fanfiction nor a story. I just want to write to keep my writing skills in action since I'm a songwriter and much others. This is going to be sort of slow...I have to say this introduction isn't the best I could of done possibly. I'm a Cade shipper and this story will be kept at the begininning of Cat and Jade's friendship igniting per chapter. Throughout the story, with these emotions they have always conducted for each other, is it more than companionship or it's just how best friends are like? The things you do and went through with that person...
Idon't own Victorious and the characters, of course. I'm keeping the rating at T and it'll possibly go to rated M depending how this writing leads into!
Whistle For The Choir
Ch. 1; Introduction
Well, it's a big, big city and it's always the same.
Can never be too pretty, tell me your name?
Is it out of line if I was to be bold,
And say, "Would you be mine?"...
Who would of thought that specifically a human being could stroll around the heart of Los Angeles with the appearance that could outshine everybody which only Caterina Valentine has ever believed through out the years...or maybe...she was just in too much awe with this human just like those fascinating moments she had with her Kindergarden teacher's toys that her teacher would give her always since she was the outcast among her snobby class.
At age two, she spoke to her parents quickly with gibberish and wobbly movements that they thought their newborn child already has developed mental problems just like her five year old brother had. At age three, she had a vivid imagination by being curious enough to crawl around the house; damaging the house furniture, tipping down the dishes towards the carpet floor, playing with the bugs outside the Valentine's backyard, drawing random creatures that not even her parents could figure out if her drawing of a dog is a dog and a drawing of a cat is a cat. I guess this is why ever since that age, Caterina has grown up to still be in that state of mind of a young child from Elementary School. As a baby, she thought the world was the greatest thing and always had a positive mind even though there are so much moments of loneliness being given to her. She figured loneliness was her only friend that with that issue, she speaks to her thoughts that she could form friends of her own. Imaginary ones that is. At times, the child felt sad; not depression yet since I believe depression is a huge word for just a sixyear old.
Caterina Valentine was born with those innocent brown eyes, harmony, adorable button nose, a sugary, sweet assuring smile, tremendous and gorgeous long brown hair, petite body, and of course, that cute dimple she always wears on her face. But her smile aren't ALWAYS planted on her...not always..
Jadelyn West. Oh Jade. From the heart of Texas, the West family decided to move to Los Angeles, California so Mr. West could get a well-paid job for the family. Mrs. West doesn't do much around the family except take good care of her daughter. At age three, she starts to speak well enough for a kid that age and the West parents were thrilled just like what every parent would be for their child. She wasn't very naturally hyper; just a very mild child except the fact that her parents start to think their first child is very pecuilar...in fact, Jade insisted that her friend was a hammer and she would hammer down the puzzle pieces she would usually play with her mother when they try to do a 10 pieced puzzle together that Jade couldn't figure out herself. She loathed ice cream, vegetables, candy; Hell, she loathed a bunch of ordinary things and some are very...out of the ordinary. Jade never had any friends till she attended Indian Valley Elementary School in Los Angeles..
Jadelyn West was born with those hailed blue eyes, her long, wavy brown hair, and of course, that rividing smile she could beam. Her smile doesn't appear as much as to why the reason why she doesn't want to...She could feel a hint of loneliness; whoa wait, Jadelyn West has emotions. No. Well...till a certain ditzy invades her life at such a young age...Too bad she pretends she doesn't have any to anybody except Caterina..
"Kids..er- you have a new student and well, I like to give a warm welcome to Jadelyn West..." says Mr. Lightfoot, looking bothered as if this new aggrevated child was going to murder him with the scissors she's been holding since the bell rang. The children clapped and Jade already rolled her eyes, giving the impression to the teacher that he was facing with discontent already.
"Hmmm...why don't you sit next to...Ah, Caterina Valentine, perhaps?", Mr. Lightfoot inquiries as he points his finger to the empty desk next to Caterina.
"Okay." Jade says without emotion and walks over to Caterina. Caterina's eyes were pretty bugged out and at first, Jade thought she was a freak but something about Caterina's eyes just draws her in and makes her think this was going to be okay untill...
"HIIIIII!"
A shriek happened to attack Jade's right ear as Jade sat down and she looked over who's next to her. Caterina showed that remarkable smile of her's and made a cute little wave. Jade flashed a fake smile and sat down.
Through out the whole futile day of school, Caterina and Jade were silent...even through recess, Caterina mostly stayed at the school library to read and Jade was staying at the bathroom, cutting up the plastic trash cans. Needless to say, the class already thought Jade was a creep. Caterina couldn't stop letting Jade cross her mind every time. At first, Caterina feared Jade was going to hurt her when she sat next to her in class but as the silence seeps through the atomsphere they were both in, she felt comfortable around her; like she could actually endure no words spoken. Jade couldn't stop letting Caterina cross her mind every time also. Everytime Caterina shoots a glance at Jade as they were doing math before recess, she shoots a glance back at her and sometimes she would catch Caterina's glances. Within a second, she felt some sort of connection. She never had a friend before and neither did Caterina.
Because I maybe a beggar and you maybe the queen.
I know I maybe on a downer, I'm still ready to dream.
Though it's 3 o'clock,
The time is just the time it takes for you to talk.
The dreadness was over for Jade and she wanted to go home as soon as possible but her mother forgot the time to pick her up so she had to wait. In the corner of her eye, she noticed Caterina sitting on the curb all alone, hugging her knees and rocking back and
forth. Jade was debating to walk over to her to keep her company or she could be a little bitch for a young kid, stay in position, and ignore the fact that the person who endured sitting next to her the whole day of school is sitting across from her.
The sun was gazing upon Jade's face and Caterina couldn't help but stare at Jade when Jade tilts her head up to the sky. Another first impression of Caterina that I've forgot to mention for Jade was that she always thought Jade was really pretty...Shit, her eyes are very intensive and even when you know Jade flashes a fake grin, it's so gorgeous so I couldn't blame her. The sun beamed on Jade and surprisingly, Jade got up and walk up to Caterina to sit next to her.
"Hi. What's your name?" says Jade.
"Caterina..." says Caterina, shyly.
"Oh...that's a pretty name."
"Really? You think so?" Cat beamed with joy that freaked Jade out.
"...Yeah..."
Silence sneaks into their atmosphere again. Outcast meets outcast. Jade starts to play with her fingers and Caterina plays with the stick that was beside her.
"...I never had a friend before..." Caterina says sadly, out of the blue.
"Me too..." Jade responded. Another silence comes.
"...Do you want to be my friend?" Caterina breaks the silence.
"Mmmm okay...I don't like how long your name is though." says Jade.
"What's that suppose to mean!" Cat shrieks to Jade.
"Uhm nothing...Can I call you Cat? Cat seems nice and I like cats."
"Oooo! I love kittens! Yes! I have a friend now! I have to tell my parents!" beamed Cat.
Jade starts to feel a smile coming and she never thought that her emotions of happiness could appear on her face. They talk about a variety of things they both liked; some were menacing to Jade, some shocked Cat, and most of the time, they enjoyed each other's interests and their first presence. Through out elementary school, Cat and Jade had been close friends. Even though Cat's personality could sometimes irritate Jade, Jade started to love her up-beat, positive, and feminine self. She was the only person that Jade could accept a person like Cat. In fact, Cat was the first person Jade has loved. Cat started loving Jade's low, pecuilar, rude self but Cat didn't set her beliefs on anybody saying Jade is rotten. Cat felt that she knows the real Jade inside. The outer shell of Jade could terrify people but Cat felt that Jade has a heart somewhere inside through out the cowebs and dust that lives within Jade. Cat could past through those cowebs if she wanted to since nobody has ever. Jade would try to let Cat in. Even numorous of infinitesimal fights they could have, they would always be in dismay for each other. They never wanted to lose each other and sometimes, they wonder if their durable connection was more than and Jade would shake the thought out, believing it's ultimately wrong to be in love with their best friend. But they were adolescents; they don't know what love really is, right?..
We'll see how this story goes...Review or such. I don't mind. And yes, the words that are italized are lyrics of The Fratiellis' "Whistle For The Choir" and is the title you can see.
