Hey everyone. Thanks for all the reviews on my first story. Loved it. So, please read this one for all the people who reviewed for me and asked for more…this is a multi-chapter story.
Beck's POV
It was 1:43 pm when Lane called us to his office, the whole gang. I was there standing clueless, Jade with a scowl on her face and a large pair of scissors, Andre fiddling with his fingers, Robbie and Rex arguing, and Cat daydreaming.
It was a normal day at Hollywood Arts, or so it seemed like that. But one thing, one important person was missing – Tori.
Flashback
"Hey baby girl!" Andre called as we walked across the main hall to Tori's locker.
"Hey Tori"
"Hey…."she said before she painfully gripped her stomach area and stumbled backward.
I ran up to her holding her before she would fall down. I raised my eyebrows giving her a small, questioning look.
"There was a sudden pain in my ribcage," she shrugged. I told her it could be serious but she laughed at me and left. Andre raised his hands in defeat and we both walked into Sikowitz's class.
Since that day, Tori Vega hasn't answered a single one of our calls and we all miss her. Especially me. I was in love with that girl. I liked everything about her - her hair, her smile, her eyes, and everything else. But, she didn't like me. Ever since the Platinum Music Awards, I gave up on her. She would awkwardly walk two feet apart from me when we walked to class like we were strangers. She wouldn't look me in the eyes whenever she talked to me. It seemed as though she had drifted apart from me altogether.
Lane walked into the office where we all sat, and Trina was behind him. She had a tissue in her hand and she was wiping her nose and crying uncontrollably. What had happened? I'd never seen Trina cry and I cared because she was Tori's sister. Jade immediately stood up as Lane sat in his chair and started putting on lotion.
"Okay…are you going to tell us why we're here or not?" Jade questioned. Lane seemed to be on the verge of tears himself.
"I will," he plainly stated, "but you guys have to be able to work this out and be mature about it."
"Robbie got us in trouble again, didn't he?" Andre yelled as he shot Robbie a fierce look. Robbie melted back into his chair, oh, what had he done? Soon, Robbie, Rex, and Andre got involved into a stupid argument. Lane seemed surprised at our immaturity.
"Hey guys. This is serious," he said, almost seeming sad, "It's Tori." Trina broke apart and ran outside like she couldn't take it anymore. Jade immediately stood up…what happened after that was all a blur.
"Tori…hospital….disease…doctors say…she won't make it." By the time, Lane finished his story, Cat was crying. Robbie walked over to comfort her and held her but it was evident he was crying too. Rex was dropped on the floor. Jade and Andre were both equally surprised and they fell back into their seats. Andre put his face in his hands and just sat there. Jade stumbled back and almost fell backward until she caught herself and decided to talk it out. She sat by Cat.
The last thing I heard when I slammed Lane's office door was "Where's Beck going?" Where would I be going? I was going to go meet Tori Vega.
