"Oh.. Oh, God, yes.. Jade," Tori moaned as she ran her fingers through the goth girl's raven hair. They were having another one of their "tutoring sessions", the explanation they had given their friends when questioned on why they were spending so much time together. Just one more flick of Jade's tongue and Tori was sent over the edge. Jade quickly placed a hand on Tori's mouth, stifling the scream that was beginning to emerge from the Latina's mouth.

"What the fuck, Vega? Do you want your parents to come up here?"

"Sorry," Tori sighed, "sorry, I don't know what came over me."

"I came over you." Jade smirked. She then removed her head from in between Tori's legs and sat up on the bed. She reached into her back pocket and pulled her phone out, turning it on. Crap, five texts from Beck. What does he want?

Tori heard Jade sigh, and after putting some undergarments on, asked what was wrong. "What's going on?"

"Friggin' Beck, wants me to come over," Jade mumbled as she placed a piece of gum in her mouth and threw her leather jacket on.

"Wait, Jade."

"WHAT?" Jade whined in her usual obnoxious way that was used to indicate that she didn't have the time for this conversation.

"Eeep," Tori shrank into her bed, "I just wanted a kiss goodbye." She looked away so that Jade wouldn't see her beginning to blush.

"We're not dating, Tori." Jade motioned toward the door again, but stopped when Tori spoke.

"I know, but I don't know... I guess I'd feel, like, cheap or something if I at least didn't get a goodnight kiss afterwards." Tori looked away again, obviously embarrassed, and awaiting the wrath she knew would come from the Ice Queen before her.

To her audible surprise, Jade did kiss her before she left. She also remembered to remind Tori that, "I still don't like you." Of course, you don't. Maybe the feeling's mutual.

...

Ren Skyles had been waiting for the opportunity to ask out Tori Vega for months. And now, here was his chance. Throwing on an air of confidence that he knew he didn't really have, he walked up to the brown-haired girl to claim what he had been wanting for so long.

"Umm, hey Tori." The confidence he tried to feign earlier quickly escaped him as soon as she looked at him with those beautiful chocolate brown eyes.

"Hey.. you." Tori threw on a false smile, not recognizing the boy, but not wanting to be impolite.

"It's, um, Ren Skyles. From Vocal Music class?"

"Oh yeah!" Tori said, finally recognizing the timid boy, "you're the boy with the really high tenor voice!"

"Yeah, that's me." Ren made a gulp that sounded more like a high squeak.

"Well, you're a really great singer."

"You too."

"Yeah... So what's up?"

"Umm, I was wondering.. if perhaps.. you'd be so kind to.. I'd be honored to..." Ren began freezing up, not able to speak to the gorgeous girl in front of him. All of that rehearsing in front of his mirror, moot now that he was choking in the middle of his proposal.

Tori moved her head to the side, gesturing that she was waiting for him to finish his sentence.

Damn it, Ren Miquel Skyles, you can do this. "Okay, um, Tori would you please do me the honor.. of accompanying me to dinner and a movie.. perhaps?" Ren flinched, expecting the same smack he had gotten from Jade when he asked her out in ninth grade.

"Sure, um, Ren. I'd love to."

Ren exhaled in relief. "Great! So, text me your address? Is 7pm cool for me to pick you up?" Ren pulled out the scrap of paper with his number on it that he had prepared earlier, and handed it to Tori.

Tori inhaled through her teeth. Today was scheduled to be another "tutoring session" between her and Jade, and Tori knew that the goth girl hated to be canceled on. She made that mistake when they first started having their "affair" and she canceled to go to the movies with Cat. Jade made absolute sure to punish her for it next time.

Ren looked downcast, assuming by her reaction that she was going to change her mind.

"Um, sure, I'll text you after this next class. 7pm is perfectly fine. I'll see you then!" Tori smiled, gave Ren a peck on the cheek, and walked away toward her next class.

The dark-haired boy had a huge grin on his face as he walked away, even being so bold as to do a hop-and-skip move on his way to class. Little did he know, Jade had been paying more attention to their conversation than to the boyfriend snuggling up against her neck. She even scoffed and rolled her eyes when she noticed his little skip move.

"'Sup?" Beck asked, pulling himself away from his girlfriend, as inviting as she was.

"Nothing, nothing..." Jade said, as Beck returned his attention to snuggling up against her, imagining the things he would love to do to her after school was out. "Hey, wanna go out to your truck and hang out?"

"Skip class?"

"Yeah, come on. It'll be worth your while..." Jade flirtatiously tickled Beck's chin as she pulled him toward the doors in the back of the school, away from the office, minimizing their chances of getting caught.

And, oh, was sneaking out worth Beck's while.

So, I've been having a lot of writer's block lately, so I decided to try this challenge. Maybe I should start writing something other than Jori... Nah. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed it. Constructive criticism always welcome. A little bit of praise is cool too, heh heh. And, I think I will be updating this one fast. We shall see.

Disclaimer: I don't really own Victorious. Doesn't keep me from telling my overbearing grandmother who thinks I'm a failure that, though.
