Hello Readers! I have decided to write "Deleted Scenes" to help relieve my need for Bori fluff as well as yours. I have been thinking about doing this since The Worst Couple but I knew it had to be done when I saw Tori Goes Plaitnum. I feel (and some other people do to) that Beck might have come off a bit playerish because there was no set up for the kiss prior to this episode (at least not since like the first season). SO the chapters in this story will serve as deleted scenes from episodes starting with The Gorilla Club and onto Tori Goes Plaitnum. I may or may not continue after that we will have to see what Dan and his talented team of writers have in store for the future.
ALRIGHT LETS GET STARTED!
Disclaimer: If I owned Victorious I wouldn't ship Bori I would ship Beck and Myself… I would make up a cute couple name but our names both start with B so it looks dumb no matter what.
"Are you alright?" When I turned I saw Beck sitting there. He was being so nice, putting up with my craziness. He was really concerned for my safety but he also didn't stand in my way when I insisted on going again. I went three times and every time I got hit and fell. After the third try I was starting to loose hope and get some really bad bruises. The last time Beck asked if I wanted to leave I relented.
I spent the whole ride back to my place staring out the passenger side window of Becks car. I was really angry with myself. We had left Andre and Cat back at the club because she wanted to stay longer. CAT! Of all people to be riskier than me it had to be CAT! I'm not sure why I was surprised she was a little wonky so I should of expected her to be more daring than me but it still upset me.
I could feel Beck glance over at me every time we came to a stop light. Suddenly, I couldn't control it and I started tearing up. I was angry for being such a baby, I was sad because it might cost me the part in that big movie, I was embarrassed because Beck saw me fail so badly, and worst of all I had bruises all over and I was starting to tense up and hurt. I turned my back toward him some more so he couldn't see the tears falling down my face. I heard him sigh but I ignored it.
About twenty minutes later he steered the '69 Charger he was driving this week into my drive.
"Thanks Beck. See ya at school." I grabbed my bag and left the car without looking back. I was half way up to my door when I heard the other car door slam followed by his voice calling my name.
"Tori wait a second." I heard him jogging up behind me and attempted to move quicker but my body was so stiff I ended up almost falling. I felt a strong hand grip my wrist and pull me into him. "I got ya." He said trying to look in my eyes. I turned away. "Hey, Tori, look at me." I looked up and the sight of his sympathetic face was too much. One tear broke through the barrier and I pulled my wrist away from him. He wiped my tear away with his thumb and smiled. "Listen I know you are upset and you don't want to talk about it but at least let me help you inside and get you some ice packs or something." I couldn't help but smile back. "Fine but promise you won't tell anyone how upset I got over this. I feel embarrassed enough." He wrapped an arm around my shoulder and guided me up the walk and toward my front door. "There is nothing to be embarrassed about. Every actor has to go through stuff like this to make you stronger. It gives you something to tap into for a scene or the confidence to take a risk no matter if your sure it will work or not. That is what all this is about." We reached my door and I pulled out my key and stuck it in the lock. I opened the door to find the house dark. I hadn't noticed my parent's car missing from the drive when we walked up but I suppose Becks arm around me had something to do with that. I flipped on some lights and found a note on the table.
Hey dork,
Mom and Dad had some police gala thing tonight and wont be home till morning because they are getting a hotel room in San Diego. I am going out tonight with Austin the hot senior, well sort of, I am going out with a group of his friends. Anyway don't expect me home early.
Love your amazing sister,
Trina
I tossed the note into the trash and flopped on the couch. " I don't get it Beck, you are such a natural at this stuff. I am sure it is easy for you to take risks." He continued on to the kitchen as if he had lived here his whole life. He went about putting the kettle on and digging out a mug and some of my mothers "Muscle Recovery" tea. "I wouldn't have been able to three years ago. Every actor has that moment when they realize it is ok to take risks. I was on stage and suddenly my co-star got sick he took off and I was left alone on stage and I stood there for a second before saying the perfect line to tie it into the show and then I just walked off stage like the scene was over." He grabbed two ice packs out of the freezer and headed my way. "My director said he appreciated me being so cool about it and that if I could make that relaxed decision making part of my acting style I could go really far. And here I am." He knelt next to the couch.
"Take your jacket off…. Do you have a tank under your shirt?"
"Yes."
"Well then take your shirt of too." I jumped a bit then he finished. "It will make it easier for me to assess the damage. When you do that lie down." I did as I was told and then picked up the conversation. "And since then taking risk has been no big deal?" I hissed when he put the cold ice back against the blue green flesh that covered my arm. "Sorry. Yea I mean risk on the actors' part is a huge deal in a play. It could make or break a whole performance." He pressed a bit on the upper part of my hip. "Does that hurt?" "OW! YES!" He slowly slid up my tank to over my belly button and rolled my jeans down a bit. There was another huge bruise this one was so bad it had little red marks in it. "Shit Tori." He shook his head seeming very saddened. "I told you those games weren't for you. Here hold this on the bruise." I reached my right arm up to hold the ice pack to my left arm and Beck sat on the floor next to me. He splayed his hand out over the ice pack and his fingers brushed the sensitive skin on my hipbone. I gasped a little. "It will be all right its just going to feel a little cold for a second." Beck reassured me placing his free hand in mine. Little did he know I was gasping at the feel of his skin on mine. It was a sensation I'd longed for for quite some time.
A half hour later I was sitting on the couch finishing some tea and talking to Beck about how I wanted to go back to the Gorilla Club. He said I was nuts but he promised he would be there and try to help however he could. I felt good to know that he was this close to me, that I could be this open with him. Beck ripped me from my thoughts by laying a hand on my shoulder. "Hey we should get you in bed. You need some rest."
I started to rise from the couch but it was slow and painful.. Beck slid his arm under mine and helped me up. Some how that is completely beyond me we made it to my room.
I slowly changed and told him he could enter. When he returned he had a glass of water and some pills and he handed both to me. "Take these and then we can get you in bed." He smiled as I took the pain meds and he pulled back my comforter. "Beck you really did not have to do all of this! I thought you were just going to help me to the couch and get me an ice pack. This is to much." He smiled as I sat on the edge of the bed and he watched every move I made. He gently covered me with the sheet and comforter and sat next to me. "Tori I feel like I am at least a little responsible for what happened tonight. It is the least I can do to take care of you. I might have just left you here but then knowing no one was home I wanted to make sure you got taken care of." I smiled I couldn't believe how sweet he was being. His phone went off, he glanced at it and then slid it back in his pocket. "Who was that?"
"Just Jade." He replied
"Won't she be mad if you don't answer her?" I questioned wondering for the thousandth time how they managed to keep it together. "Yea but she will get over it. Your health is a bit more important at the moment." He sat down on the floor and we talked for a few hours until we both fell asleep.
When I woke the next morning Beck was gone, a note was laid on the bedside table with more pills, a cinnamon bun, and some water.
"Tori,
Make sure you take the pills BEFORE you eat the cinnamon bun. I hope you are feeling better today but I had to get to work. I will come over tonight and we can work on your scene some more or maybe go to the club if you still haven't come to your senses yet.
Love, Beck"
The butterflies that filled my stomach could have literally carried me away.
