Authors note: I guess I'm staring this out as a season re-write, but only for a few chapters. Please review and go easy on me, this is the first piece of fan-fiction I've ever written.
Jade sunk down in her seat, her fingers making circles on her boyfriends hand as his arm was slunk over her shoulder. She couldn't believe she'd got dragged to this, but it meant a lot to Andre and according to Beck, her boyfriend, this meant it should mean something to her – Or something like that. This sucks she thought to herself.
"This sucks." she repeated out loud. Beck just looked down and smirked. That girl could find anything to be unhappy about, but he wasn't going to give in, no matter how far she pushed it. He wanted to be there for his friend.
"I think he's up next" he assured her. Jade just sighed in response as she knew her ears were soon to be violated by Trina Vega's singing. How she ever got in to Hollywood Arts, she'd never know. Jade was snapped out of her thoughts by screaming and groaning coming from behind the curtain. "Well, things are looking up." she said with a raised eyebrow.
"Is that Trina? I wonder what she's doing."
"Hopefully dying." replied Jade nonchalantly. As soon as she said this, she watched Andre step out on to the stage and take his place. "I'll ask. Hey Andre!-" was as far as she got before she felt Becks hand covering her mouth. She licked his hand and after he dragged it hand away to wipe it on his jeans, Jade found herself carefully watching a girl who'd just stepped out on to the stage. That is definitely not Trina. She thought. She found herself almost captivated by the girls voice as she started singing and as butterflies threatened to invade her stomach, the song sped up and Jade found herself eagerly watching the girl's legs as she danced around on stage. Surely that dress is too revealing to be worn at a school performance. Before she knew what was happening, the curtain was being pulled back and Andre was asking the crowd if they thought the unknown girl was talented enough to go to their school. When did the song finish? As the crowd were cheering in approval, Jade just stared dumbly at the girl in question.
A few days later.
"Dude! Why're you rubbing my boyfriend!" Jade stared straight at the girl incredulously.
"Oh... I-I just- I spilled coffee on his uh-"
"Get away from him!" Jade interrupted, indicating with her hands that the girl had better move ASAP.
"Relax. Alright?" Beck said with a smirk as he walked towards her, planting a kiss on her cheek. Jade simply continued to stare daggers at the girl. She definitely got the looks, but it seems like the entire Vega family is brain damaged or something.
"OH MY GOD, THERE'S A HUGE FIRE!" Everyone in the room started screaming and scrambling to grab their bags and make a run for the exit. "Kidding! Kidding! Just wanted to get your blood pumping, which I did – HAH!" Typical Sikowitz. Jade simply glared at her teacher. He was her favourite, but damn did that man know how to piss her off. They all made their way to their seats as he carried on. "Alright, now let's get started. Rumps in chairs. Okay... first I'd like to introduce our new student, Tori. And I'd like to thank Tori for her generous gift of two dollars, which she handed me outside this morning – Not necessary, but much appreciated!" Jade glared at the back of the girls head and rolled her eyes as she explained to Andre how she'd mistaken him for a homeless man. Oh god, she's just as bad as her sister. How could anyone be that thick? "Now today, we're going to continue our study in group improv. Tori, I assume you're familiar with improv?"
"Uhhh... well, yes and no."
"What does that mean?"
"No."
Jade just groaned internally as Sikowitz went on to give a quick explanation on improv. What is she even doing at this school? She could tell this girl was forever going to get on her nerves.
"Jade! You will captain the first group of the day, choose your actors!" This was going to be perfect.
"Cat, Eli, Beck... and Tori." Jade smiled to herself as a terrified expression came across the Vega girls face.
"Okay, let's give them a place."
"Home!" chirped in Robbie. Shortly after, he was being insulted by his own puppet. I will never understand that kid.
"And now we need, a situation."
"Big news!" called out Andre.
"Andre, nobody wants to see big nudes." I wouldn't mind seeing some of Veg- I did not just think that. Crap, the sooner I get this girl out of here the better.
"Uh, why don't you go wait in the hall?"
"Uh... okay." Jade had to admit, the nervous look on the girls face was a little adorable. But as she watched her walking out with a smirk, this only made her more determined.
"Action!" Sikowitz called.
Jade turned round to Beck to start it off. "Hey babe, how was work today?"
"Uh, I got fired?"
"Ugh."
"Again!" Whimpered Cat and Eli apparently choosing to act as their kids. Fits Cats personality perfectly. "Daddy's a loser."
"It's okay! I have great news that'll cheer up this whole family." Time to get this going. "I went to the animal shelter and got us a dog!"
"Uhhh, yep! I'm the new family dog." Jade watched her laugh nervously with smirk.
"Sikowitz, will you please tell this amateur that dogs can't talk and that they don't walk on two legs. Sikowitz!" The man choked on his coconut drink and Jade couldn't care less, she had a plan and she wasn't going to let anyone mess it up.
"But it's true Tori, if you're gonna play a dog – Be a dog." Jade smiled as the girl got on her hands and knees. Not a bad look for her. "Aaand action!"
"Uh- uh- I went to the animal shelter and got us a dog!" As she watched Cat and Eli rush over to the Vega girl she knew exactly what her next move would be.
"Can the dog sleep in our room?" What the hell, Beck!
"No, honey, it can't! Uh-oh, looks like this dog has bugs in her fur." As Cat and Eli moved away and with the added fuel of jealously caused by Beck, Jade knew this was all going to go perfectly. "Oh, it's okay! I read on the Internet that coffee works great for getting rid of fur bugs."
"Maybe you shouldn't, uhm-" Beck didn't get much further before Jade poured a cup of cold coffee all over Tori's head. Smiling internally as the girl stood up.
"What's the prob, dog?"
Jade watched the girl run out of the room and smiled to her self, raising her eyebrows to the class as some look at her in exasperation. She brought it on her self.
The next day.
Jade was sat in Sikowitz class, feeling please with herself that she was rid of that Vega girl. There was something about her that made Jade feel threatened. The girl had the potential to tear her world apart and she would not let that happen.
"Good morning, young performers!" Really Sikowitz, through a window?
"Why'd you crawl in the window?" Man, I hope I don't sound as stupid in my head as he does in real life.
"Because, being a good performer is about making interesting choices."
"That explains his pants." Jade thought out loud, before turning to see who was coming in the door.
"Tori, you're back." You have go to be kidding me. "Ever thought about coming in through the window?"
"... No?"
"Think about it. Now, sit, sit." This isn't happening. What does it take with this girl? Ergh. And what's with that smile... it's cute but- No, it's not cute. It's annoying. I'm infuriated...
"Bring those apples, so we may all enjoy the fresh fruit from Becks butt." From Becks what now? Crap, this is why she shouldn't be here. She's too distracting... in an annoying way of course.
"Now, who wants to lead the first group?"
"I do."
"Alright, Tori. Choose your actors" Don't even think about it...
"Okay. Andre, Cat, Beck, and Jade." Son of a- "Yeah, you." I'll give her credit, this girls got guts, but that won't stop me from winning. With a smirk, Jade stood up and walked towards the stage, purposefully pulling her boyfriend in for a kiss as she got there.
"Jade, kiss your boyfriend on your own time."
"Oh, I will."
"Okay, if you start your line with the wrong letter – ERRR! You're out! Robbie, give us a letter."
Rex, Robbie's puppet interrupted him as usual. Can you call that interrupting?
"P!"
"Okay, the scene can be about anything you want. The first letter of the first line is 'P'. Tori, action!"
"Please go take a shower!" Tori rounded on Jade. Oh this is rich...
"Quit telling me what to do."
"Relax, girls. Let's all try to get along." Shut up Beck.
"Totally!" Cat added, using the wrong letter, getting her eliminated from the game. After a small tantrum that had a level of weirdness only she could achieve, it was up to Andrew to carry this on.
"Something just bit my toe!"
"Turtle! That turtle just bit his toe!" I hate you, Vega. Jade growled in her head as she glared at the girl.
"Unbelievable that you're even here."
"Very immature of you to say that." I can't believe Becks sticking up for her!
"Uh... what if the turtle bite broke my toe bone!"
"X-rays are the only way to find out." Ergh.
"You... should shut up!"
"Zap! I just healed your toe with my magic finger."
Andre replied with the wrong letter, getting him eliminated second. Jade was starting to get really annoyed by now, she couldn't believe the younger Vega was still in this.
"Aliens, are the only people who can heal toes by finger zapping."
"By the way-" Jade ended it by sticking her tongue out at the girl. Okay, even I know I'm better than this.
"Correct, I am an alien."
"Don't hurt me, please." With this, Tori took a step closer to Beck, pissing Jade off that little bit more.
"Even though she's extremely annoying!" The two of them just looked at Jade in exasperation.
"Fainting... because I can't breathe... your earth air." Why is she holding my boyfriends arm?
"Gosh, it fainted!" So will you in a minute.
"Hey! Why don't you go jump off that cliff over there?"
"I think you should."
"Just where did you come from?"
"Kangaroos."
"Lousy animals, kangaroos. They're awkward and dirty."
"Maybe they learned from you." She's pushing it...
"No one, talks to me like that."
"Obviously someone should."
"Please run in front of a bus!"
"Quite obnoxious of you to say."
"Really!"
"Sure was."
"Thanks!"
"Up, your nose I see boogers."
"Very clever."
"Wish you'd thought of it?"
"X marks the spot I liked to punch!" And with this Jade pointed to Tori's face, her anger was really starting to get the better of her now – She couldn't stand this girl.
"Your finger smells weird!"
"Zero is what you are on a scale of one to ten."
"As if I care what you think!"
"Better watch yourself."
"Can't take it?"
"Don't push me!"
"Eat your pants!"
"YOU EAT YOUR PANTS! WAIT!" Oh crap. Jade new she was eliminated from the game and didn't need Sikowits less than helpful reminder. She couldn't take the anger, no one stood up to her like this and absolutely no one got away with flirting with her boyfriend, that was something Jade made very clear. So what she saw next as she watched Beck and Tori carry on was definitely something she was going to put an end to.
"Get up, alien!"
"Head... feels dizzy."
"I know what will make you feel better." Don't you even dare...
"Jumping jacks?"
"Kiss me." Okay, she's dead.
"Little weird. Let's do it."
Jade watched them kiss and was mortified when she realised she wasn't jealous of Tori, in fact mostly she felt pangs of jealously towards Beck and this just made her even more furious. This can not be happening. I like boys. I like Be- I love Beck. My boyfriend. Not some stupid, happy-happy-rainbows-and-sunshine-mini-Vega!
…Crap.
