Chapter 1: Something in the way
Disclaimer: I do not own Victorious, end of story
Cat's POV
"I hate Tori" I whisper to myself trying to fool myself. It just isn't working but if Jade ever found out she would hate me more than she does now. Tori is a good friend but just too good she is a better friend than Jade. Of course Jade hates everyone but Beck so when Beck had to move back to Canada. She was heartbroken and wouldn't let anyone help her. Most of the guys at Hollywood arts already stopped trying to make her theirs. And the ones that didn't stop were handled by Andre. "Cat, dinner is ready!" my mom yells at me "not hungry!" I yell back. I hate eating dinner with my parents it's not like they pay attention to me anyway. I just couldn't deal with the awkward table conversations anymore. My phone interrupts my thoughts when I look at it and see Tori's name I hesitate at first but then I realize I need someone to talk to. So I answer it "hey Cat, are you hungry" is the first thing she says I nod but I know she cant see me so I whisper "yes I am" she asks me "Then do you want to go out to eat with me?" I cant help but shout "Yes!" I can hear her laugh then say "Ok then its a date get dressed and wait for me outside your house." I cant help but yell again "Ok!" then I hang up and realize she said it was a date. But it would be stupid of me to think serious of that. I hardly ever think serious unless its important. I must think this is important but it shouldn't be she is just taking me out to eat as friends nothing else right? I have to ask myself then I answer to myself yeah just as friends. I hurry and get dressed and go downstairs. "where are you going?" my father asks "just out with my friend" I say he tells me "which one it better not be Jade." I shout "no its not Jade its Tori" he just nods and waves me out the house. So I walk out the house and see Tori I can see I big smile on her face and cant help but smile myself then run to the car and get in. she asks again "So are you really hungry?" I shake my head and answer "I just wanted to get out of the house, I wanted to be with you." She smiles again she makes me so happy even more happy then Jade used to make me before she met Beck. I try to shake the thought out of my head I don't want to think about her when I'm with Tori. It ruins a lot when I do she asks then "So what do you want to do then?" I tilt my head and think then yell "oh oh I know how about your house, we can watch movies and eat popcorn." I smile she smiles too then says "Ok lets do that sounds fun to me." We finally drive off to her house once we get inside the first thing I do is lay on the couch. She smiles then walks to her kitchen to pop some popcorn she yells over the sound of the popcorn popping "do you want to go to my room instead?" I answer "sure a bed is more comfortable anyway" she laughs and says "yeah it is" once the popcorn is done she walks over to me and takes my hand. I rush up and she laughs and runs us upstairs to her room I sit down on her bed and she asks me while handing me the popcorn. "What movie do you want to watch?" I answer "Sucker Punch! I heard it was good but I only got to watch little parts of it." She smiles then says "Ok anything for my Cat" I smile the biggest I have ever before and blush. She puts the movie in then sits by me the movie is so great I'm nearly on the edge of the bed Tori is just smiling at me the whole time. And I can feel myself blushing everytime I notice which means I am blushing the whole time. At the end it's sad I nearly feel myself about to cry Tori seems to see and she grabs me wrapping her arms around me and setting her chin on my shoulder. "It's just a movie, I'm here" she whispers into my ear. I just whisper back "I love you, Tori" and I know I'm not trying to fool myself this time. She whispers it back " I love you too Cat I always have." I lean more back into her to deepen our touch and my phone interrupts us I look at it and see Jade's name I frown and answer it. "Hello Cat can we meet somewhere I really need someone to talk to." she clears her voice like to correct herself then says "No Cat I need you" Tori seems to hear and whispers "go, I trust you and she needs you." I nod and ask Jade "where do you want to meet" she sighs then whispers "my house"
