"Tori," Andre called after class, "Wait up. What did you think about my speech on friendship?"

"I THINK," Tori said angrily, "That you should follow your own words. I think all of you should follow Andre's words"

"Angry much," Beck asked

"A true friend will stand by you through thick and thin. I didn't see you guys standing by me after the stage fight that as I have made perfectly clear-"

"Okay, okay lets just call it a miscommunication and forget about what happened," Beck said. He couldn't stand to see his friends upset and he was still new at all of this stuff"

"Tori," Andre said, "I know what my eyes tell me"

He cringed at her glare.

"Look I'm sure it wasn't intentional but-"

"Then why did you act the way you did," Tori asked, "was that unintentional too?"

"Tori," Beck said, "Calm down . It's only-"

"IT ISN'T ONLY," Tori yelled, "IT'S MY FRIENDS NOT BELIEVING IN ME. THE REST OF THE STUFF ISN'T A BIG DEAL TO ME BUT THE FACT THAT YOU GUYS DON'T BELIEVE IN ME MAKES ME WANT TO CRY"

"Tori," Andre said, "I never ever wanted to make you cry"

"Yeah me either," Beck said, "I don't know what happened but I do know that you're right. We haven't been such great friends to you lately."

"Listen guys," Lane said before he was interrupted by Tori

"And YOU, YOU'RE another one," she snapped.

"Tori I need you to calm down and tell me why you're so upset," Lane said in his authoritative calm tone.

"I just got done explaining it," Tori said, "and you lied"

"How did I lie," Lane asked

"When I was called in you told me and I quote, 'You're not in trouble' and WHAT did you do at the end," Tori ranted.

"Okay so maybe that wasn't the best thing I could have done," Lane admitted.

"MAYBE! YOU SAID YOU ARE A FRIEND TO ALL STUDENTS. WELL YOU SURE AS HELL DIDN'T ACT LIKE A FRIEND TO ME"

"Tori put yourself in our shoes," Beck said

"NO! YOU PUT YOURSELF IN MY SHOES! HOW DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD FEEL IF YOU WERE IN MY SHOES"

Everyone huddled together and whispered.

"We were wrong," Andre said, "We don't know what happened but Tori, you're the most real person I know. If you say something it's got to be for real. Can you forgive us?"

"If you acknowledge that you were wrong and take back what you said then yeah," Tori replied

"Well that's a given," Beck replied grateful Jade wasn't around to whiteness this.
