Heyy! I'm back. I'm sorry I left for so long. I will try to finish my others stories, but for now I just want you guys to enjoy this and review please. Xoxo.

Again

"Why do you care?" Blue eyes look into my brown wondering why I care whether or not her boyfriend gets hurt.

"Because I figured he suffers enough pain dating you." I come back at her with a comment that sets her off.

"You wanna see pain!" She isn't asking. Her dislike for me is shown in her now dark blue eyes as she gets in my face, but she is quickly pulled away by Beck who gives me the 'yikes' expression sitting Jade down.

"Everyone have a sit please. Let's get started," Once everyone is seated the teacher continues.

"This week is all about stage fighting. I will partner you up and you and your partner will have to create a fight scene and film it."

He hands us all rubrics of what's expected and what we will be graded on. Once he finishes handing out the rubrics he starts naming off the partners.

"Beck and Tori." We're called third and from the look on Jade's face she isn't too pleased. She still thinks I want him. I really don't. I want Andre but that's a whole different story.

Class ends and I make my way out of class going to the girls bathroom that's next door. I go into one of the stalls and once I finish Jade is leaning against one of the sinks looking right at me her leg crossed over the other like she's tired of waiting. I jump a little not expecting her to be there. I stand there just staring at her for sec giving her an awkward smile adjusting my bag strap on my shoulder. I try to avoid eye contact but the feeling of Jade's eyes following me as I move towards the sink makes me uncomfortable and I can't help but to look at her.

"What?" I ask unable to take it anymore.

"I want to be friends... Again." Her words shock me so that I just look at her with my head slightly cocked to the side and a frown in my brow.

"Um, okay. I guess." Still shocked & slightly confused at the random confession I'm at a lost for words.

"Such enthusiasm Vega. I can't wait to be friends." Her sarcasm makes me shake my head and realized how bad my response was to her wanting to be friends... Again.

"No, I mean it's great. Just random. Where is this coming from after 3 years?" Jade and I have been friends since the 3rd grade, but freshman year everything went to hell in both of our lives changed. I've tried to get our friendship back, but that was a no go. She started treating me like we were never best friends once upon a time. And for her to come back and say she wants to be friends again makes me feel some type of way. I'm not sure if it's good or bad.

She sighs looking down shifting her weight off the sink onto her feet.

"Look these last three years have been... just been and I didn't know how to deal with everything that was going on. So I just pushed everyone away. That was my way of coping." Her blue eyes are soft, but you can tell that she has been through so much. Her life story keeps playing behind her eyes begging to be told, but Jade isn't having that. She has steel walls up with chains around it.

"I understand but Jade I'm your best friend. We told each other everything no matter how much we didn't want to." I explain bringing up our broken promise. She looks deep in thought. Looking at me, but her mind is somewhere else. After a few mins of silence she speaks.

"I'll be by your house after school with Cat. So we can keep an eye on you two. Mainly you." And bam. According to Jade this convo didn't even happen has she struts her way out the door disappearing into the hall.

After School

Jade has been acting like her normal evil self since our little talk in the bathroom. She's so confusing. I gave up trying to figure out her bi-polar ways.

"Tori, I'm going to switch Beck with Jade." This was not expected. I just came to get another rubric because Jade cut mine up saying she thought it was hers when she knew damn well it was mine. I didn't come for a new partner.

"Why?" I frown sliding my rubric into my bag looking back at the teacher who runs his hands through his hair as he fixes the papers on his desk.

"Because Jade won't be able to deal with Cat and I never partner couples." Jade has no patiences and Cat is... Well Cat. Happy and bubbly. Jade is just crazy. I know Jade said she wants to be friends again but, she isn't acting like it. Let's see how this project goes and I'll have my answer weather she's serious or not.

"Does Jade know?" Please let her know. I don't want to tell her and she spazzes on me.

"Does Jade know what?" Her voice is heard as she walks in. I turn to her and the teacher speaks up.

"Tori is your new partner. Cat and Beck already know." The look on her face is blank.

"Whatever let's go Vega." Are her nonchalant words as she walks out. That went better than I expected. I thought she'd flip. I guess she is serious about rekindling our friendship. Usually she'll raise all hell whenever we're partnered together.

I shrug it off following behind her before falling into step with her.

"My place or yours?" I ask as we step out the school doors going to her car.

"Yours." I haven't been to Jade's since we were in grammar school. I don't think I'll be there anytime soon. We pull off and we're at my place in six. The drive wasn't that bad, but it wasn't all that enjoyable either. We use to talk about everything during our car rides anywhere. This one was just quiet and a little awkward. I feel like I'm in the car with a stranger.

I get out the car going inside with Jade right behind me.

"You want anything to drink?" I ask sitting my bag on the counter heading to the fridge.

"Peppy Cola." She's sitting on the couch with her bag on the coffee table as she pulls out a notebook and a pen. I come back sitting next to her with two cans of 'Peppy Cola' sitting them on some coasters.

"Thanks." She opens hers and I don't notice it but, I'm staring. "I think your eyes are broken." She sits her can back down looking at me with a raised eyebrow.

"Sorry you've just changed," I pause looking at her new appearance from her old one. "A lot." Jade was always dark, but she never showed it. At the time she cared what others thought. Now she's just F what you and everyone else thinks.

"You judging me?" Her voice is suddenly low and dangerous. An all too familiar look is on her face and it's a look I never thought I'd see again. Before I can defend myself I'm on the floor looking up at Jade who's sitting on my stomach making it hard to breath as she glares down at me. Blood is sliding out my nose and down my cheek, I can feel it.

"You gonna answer me?"I just look at her. So many memories that I've tried so hard to forget start flashing through my head. Feeling warm tears go into my ears. I'm not crying because she hit. I'm crying because it's happening. again.

The second chap is already in progress. Review pretty please.
