Hi, this is my first fanfic! Please read it and tell me what you think:) i'm on twitter as V0teF0rPedr0
So, this is set in senior year at Hollywood Arts, just imagine that 'Tori Fixes Beck And Jade' never happened so Beck and Jade are still broken up. Bori all the way!
It was Monday morning and Tori was her usual happy self. She walked through the doors of Hollywood Arts and into the buzz of the school. People everywhere were dancing or singing or playing various instruments, smiling and laughing. Even people just talking in small groups seem to glow with happiness. The atmosphere is completely different to anywhere else is on a Monday morning. Tori made her way to her locker, pressing the small button in the bottom corner and turning on the lights, illuminating the words 'Make It Shine'. She found the books she needed for the needed for the day and left the rest in her locker. She quickly checked her reflection in her mirror and shut the door. "Tori" she turned to see the boy belonging to the voice, walking over.
"Hey, Andre" she smiled at her best friend, with his dark skin, brown eyes and perfect white smile. "S'up, Tor?"
"Not a lot, you?"
"I am fine" he replies, stretching out the 'I' sound. Someone's in a good mood thought Tori. "Do you know what that new project is that Sikowitz setting us?" André shook his head, all weekend Tori had been wondering what Sikowitz had up his sleeve, but it was always good so she wasn't worried. Soon the whole gang was congregated around the lockers: Tori, André, Beck, Cat, Robbie and Jade. Things had been a little awkward between everyone since Beck and Jade broke up, they went out their way to ignore each other so the rest of the gang ended up just trying to fill the silence. The bell rang overhead for their first lesson, Sikowitz.
Beck followed his friends through the door to Sikowitz's classroom, Tori was walking a short distance in front of him, he could smell her hair and see how it flowed every time she moved, how each individual wave took its own course, no two the same, right to the tips. He woke himself up from his daydream and realised he was staring. Quickly recovering he looked around for a spare seat, there was two; one next to Jade and one next to Tori. Easy decision, dropping his body in the seat next to Tori and his bag on the floor, he could feel Jade's eyes burning holes into the back of his head. Sikowitz was sat at the edge of the stage with his legs crossed and his shoes off. "Today class, as you all know we are starting a new project." Tori's heart fluttered with excitement for two reasons; Beck had sat next to her and they were about to find out about their new project. There were two boxes set up at the back of the stage, Sikowitz continued. "So 'what is this new project?' you ask. Well don't be so impatient, I'm getting there." He stood up and stepped off of the stage. "It is important for every actor to be able to interpret something and base a performance on it" he was now pacing up and down the aisle between the chairs. "You will work in pairs to listen to a song and then base a performance on it" Tori considered this, it sounded like the perfect project, many times she had listened to a song and pictured herself in the music video, excitement was building inside of her. "As you can see, there are two boxes on the stage, you will go to the first one and choose the name of your partner, and the second will tell you the song on which you are basing your performance."
Sikowitz began to direct students to pick their partners names, each one was read aloud so the partners didn't end up both choosing a name. André stuck his hand in the box and pulled out two names at once, in a split second he threw one back in, hoping the one had picked was Tori, unfolding the paper his heart sank, looking up he met the expectant eyes of his classmates, focussing on the one with the pale skin and black hair. "Jade" he then turned around to choose a song, he rifled through the paper in the box and pulled one out he then turned to read this out also, "Valerie – The Zutons" at least it's a good song he thought. He stepped off the stage and returned to his seat, he didn't look at Jade, he knew the kind of look she would have on her face. Jade slouched in her chair, she had spent the whole time begging for her name to be read out by anyone but Beck, however now she knew that she definitely wasn't his partner the realisation hit her that that was exactly what she wanted.
Beck took his turn to go pick a name, all in all he wasn't bothered who he chose, now that Jade was taken he was filled with a sense of relief. He shoved his hand into the first box, not many names were left now. He and Tori were the only ones from their friendship group that didn't yet have partners; André had Jade and Robbie had Cat. He looked out into the classroom as he unfolded his paper, seeing the words 'Tori Vega' made his insides jump with joy. It was such a cliché feeling but it was true. "Tori" he read out, not missing the slight widening of her ever-present smile. Now to choose a song, again he shoved his hand into the box and pulled out a piece of paper, it read "Romeo and Juliet – Dire Straits" this should be easy, he thought, I got the partner I wanted and a song I really like. Beck went back to his next to Tori, he leaned closer to her and whispered "Hey, partner" she looked around with a smile plastered on her face before replying "I love that song!" she then faced the front again as the last of the students picked their songs and partners, she couldn't see the smile creeping on Beck's face.
At lunch the gang discussed their project, Tori bit into her turkey sandwich, trying to avoid the looks she was getting from Jade. As the gang talked around them Beck leaned down to Tori, "Want to come to mine after school and we can work on the project?" Tori looked up into his eyes, it felt like the first time she saw him, when she just spilt coffee on him and tried to wipe it off as their eyes met. "Sure" she was so overwhelmed she wasn't sure if he had even heard her.
So that's the end on Chapter 1, please comment and tell me what you think or if you have any suggestions for what you want to happen:) thank you!
