Finally, my sequel to 'New Beginning'. This story takes place a few days after the end of 'New Beginning'. My OC Jace isn't seen too much, and neither will my other OC, Carlos, who we meet in the next chapter.

Please review, and tell me if there are any mistakes or if anything is confusing. This is in Jade's POV, unless noted otherwise.

Disclaimer: I don't own VicTORIous. I own Jace and Carlos, as well as the soundtracks and iParty with VicTORIous on iTunes. I'm still working on the seasons and iFight Shelby Marx on iTunes.

Things have been going well for Tori and I. Ryder hasn't been seen since what happened last time we were in school. Helen told us to take a few days off, so we did. Even though Tori and I were the only ones supposed to, the rest of the gang did as well. André and Beck have been getting closer than ever. I was concerned about Cat and Robbie because they seemed awkward around us couples at first, but recently they've seemed better around us. At first I thought it was because of us being two gay couples, but they assured us against that.

I stopped being worried about it when Tori tried to figure out what was wrong with them. I shouldn't be surprised, it is Tori afterall. It's a part of her charm to help. Apparently they felt bad that they were the only ones who didn't have someone to date. That ended when Tori found out they like each other, something we noticed a while ago when they got closer together. Turns out they wanted each other, but were afraid of how we'd react.

Shortly after, Tori convinced me to help her get them together. It wasn't needed, however. Turns out they got together before Ryder's scene in class, prior to him getting kicked out of Hollywood Arts, that is. They just kept it quiet for now.

Trina and I have been getting closer, surprisingly. She's still a little cautious around me, and I can't blame her. But she has gotten better at not watching me like I'm about to go on a murderous rampage, which I take as a good sign.

Mrs. Vega, or Holly as she tole me to call her a few times, has moved out and eventually moved in with Gary, Mr. Vega's ex-partner on the police force. I say ex because when the police chief found out he was taking sick days to sleep with his partner's wife, he kicked him off the force.

I don't know what happened after that, but I know Mr. Vega doesn't seem to care. He's there for Tori and Trina, and even me after I moved into the guest bedroom. He insists I call him 'David', but it feels weird to me.

I saw Holly, who I only call her that because her and David are no longer married, once since I moved it. She stopped by to collect the rest of her things, only to be rushed out by Trina when Holly made a comment about Tori being in insult to the family by dating a girl. That made me laugh at her face. Who's worse, a lesbian, or a cheater? Exactly, the cheater. You see why I laughed.

David welcomed me at that, watching the scene from the kitchen. After Holly stormed out, Trina gave me a small smirk, while Tori ran over to me and hugged me tight, catching me off guard.

Tori tried apologizing to me, and I told her to shush. It's not her fault her mother wound up being a homophobic bitch.

As good as things are going, I know that something bad will happen soon. As they say, all good things must come to an end. Too bad. I don't want this to end.

I know it's short, but the next chapters will be longer. Mr. West and Ryder will get what's coming to them soon. Followers of 'New Beginning' will know why those two are mentioned. Please read 'In The End' and 'New Beginning' if you haven't, that way you will know the past of the trilogy.

Thanks to everyone who has read the two stories that led to this, and who have read this one. Please review.
