Tori Vega was a student at Sherwood High School, whilst her sister Trina Vega attended the prestigious Hollywood Arts. One Monday Tori's sister Trina came home from school bouncing around. Tori asked her why is she so bouncy. Trina told Tori that she has got to work with a kid called 'Andy' for a project for the school's big showcase. Trina said that the kid would be coming over soon. There was suddenly a knock at the door. Trina shouted at Tori to go open the door. Tori went and opened the door and saw a kid her age standing there. She said you must be Andy, he answered that it's Andre. Tori invited him in and said that Trina was in the kitchen.
Andre and Trina was busy working on their project and Tori was up in her room doing some homework. Once she had finished her homework she came downstairs to get some food. When she reached the bottom of the stairs she could hear Trina shouting at poor Andre. Tori made herself known and asked them what they were arguing about. Trina started whining that Andre kept messing up, Tori shrugged at this. She then asked Andre to play what they had already. Andre started playing and Tori was enjoying it so far. When he finished he asked Tori if she enjoyed it, she said that it sounded good. After that Andre and Trina asked Tori to help them with the project. She helped them with the project all week until the day of the showcase.
On the day of the showcase Tori turned up at Hollywood Arts to see the showcase with her parents. The showcase was going well too begin with until it started to reach time for Trina and Andre's turn. The school councillor turns up at our seats and asks her parents if they are the parents of Trina Vega. They say yes and ask what's going on. The school councillor says to not panic and follow him to the backstage. They all stand up and follow the nurse to the backstage. When they get to the backstage area they can hear Trina worrying. The school nurse keeps trying to grab hold of Trina to get her to calm down. Trina's tongue has swollen up and she can't really talk. Her parents ask what's happened and the nurse says that it looks like she has had an allergic reaction to something. Trina keeps trying to talk and the nurse says to stop and let me massage your tongue or it could explode. That makes Trina stop talking.
The whole thing with Trina couldn't have come at a worse time for Andre. If he didn't go on and perform with a singer he would fail. He started panicking until he saw Tori, when he saw her he went up to her and asked if she could perform the song as she knows it. Tori starts objecting and saying that she can't sing. The councillor starts saying that the show must go and does anyone know Trina's part, this is when Andre says that Tori does. Tori tries to object again but the councillor just tells a bunch of students to take her to get ready. Tori is escorted off and is then pushed onto the stage when she is dressed. She still tries to run off the side of the stage until Andre starts to play the music and the light shines on her. She then starts to sing nervously until she starts to get into it after the crowd gets into the performance. Once the song is over everyone stands up and starts clapping. Tori then runs backstage and hugs Andre when he comes back. Andre says that it was great.
The principal runs backstage and comes up to Tori and asks her if she attends Hollywood Arts. Tori says no because she's not talented enough to attend this school. The principal says did you not see the audience when you were singing, he then asks her if she would like to attend the school. Tori repeats that she isn't talented to attend this school. Andre then pulls her back onto the stage and asks the audience if they think that Tori should come to Hollywood Arts. The audience all shout out yes. Tori and Andre then go backstage again and the principal asks, so do you want to come to Hollywood Arts? Tori then say yes please if it's okay with my parents. Tori's parents come over and say that it's fine.
So that is how Tori Vega joined the students at Hollywood Arts.
Let's now look at how Jade West started to get feelings for Tori Vega.
Jade was attending the Hollywood Art's big showcase with her boyfriend Beck Oliver. They were there to show their support for their friend Andre. They knew that he had worked hard on this performance and especially since he had to work with the talentless Trina Vega.
They were sat down in their seats when they saw Lane the councillor rush in and start pushing along a row of seats towards three people who were sat down. The three people stand up and start following Lane backstage. Jade is watching them and then notices Tori and she thinks that she is gorgeous. Jade starts talking to herself that why did she think that. Jade's eyes follow Tori until she disappears backstage.
After a while Andre comes on and sits down behind the keyboard and they then see someone pushed onto the stage. Jade and Beck are wondering what is going on until they see that it is the girl that went backstage with Lane. They see that Tori tries to run back off until she is pushed back. Andre then starts playing the music and she then starts to sing nervous. Jade is looking directly at Tori and thinks that the new clothes she is wearing make her look even better than before. Once Tori starts to sing properly Jade can't believe how good she sounds. It just makes her fall hard for this gorgeous talented girl. It surprises her that she is having these feeling when she is next to her boyfriend and that she has never had these thoughts for a girl before. She thinks to herself that she isn't going to see this girl again so she can just push these thoughts away. Jade and Beck stand up and clap once the performance has finished.
They wait around and then suddenly Andre comes back on the stage with the girl from before. Jade wonders what is happening and then Andre asks everyone if they think that this girl should come to Hollywood Arts. Everyone says yes and then they go backstage. Jade's heart starts to flutter, she starts to think omg I am going to see this girl again now.
So that is how Jade started having feelings for Tori.
