Chapter 1: Coconut War
Tori's POV: As I looked nonchalantly across the room in what happened to be Beck's direction, (or at least that's what I'd tell the person who caught me looking), I quickly looked away and blushed a deep scarlet. For what I saw left me in awe; Beck was already looking/staring at me.
Once my skin went back to a normal color, I made sure my head was pointed toward Sikowitz, yet I allowed my eyes to slowly turn back towards Beck. I sighed a sigh that was an in-love sigh disguised as a bored sigh and Andre looked at me with a silent but apparent 'what's wrong?' look on his happy go lucky face.
Andre was my best friend; being the first person I met from Hollywood Arts before I even went to the amazing school. I knew from the beginning that I could tell him anything and everything and if I asked for it to stay between us, that's exactly where it would be. I felt the same about Cat and kind of the same with Robbie.
But sometimes I feel like he uses Rex to blab things to people when he can't keep his mouth shut. Thus, I usually turned to Andre or Cat when I needed to confess something. Apparently, I was lost in my thoughts at that point, because Andre, Cat, Beck (and Jade, since she never leaves Beck alone with me for some strange reason) were standing there soon followed by Sikowitz trying to get my attention.
"Hello, anyone home?" asked Cat. "Earth to Tori, class is over," Andre said as he waved his hand in front of my face in a second attempt to capture my attention. Then when they finally gave up, my friends and Jade gave Sikowitz the O.K. and I was snapped back to reality; or rather smacked back. THWACK! I yelped in pain, as I looked to the only person insane enough to launch a coconut at my head, aside from Jade.
"Sikowitz? Why!" I raised my voice to question my crazy, barefoot teacher who I'd mistaken for a homeless person on my first day at HA many moons ago. "Well in my defense they gave me the O.K.," Sikowitz defended himself, pointing to my friends. I looked at them, got up, and switched my question to them, "Guys! Why?"
All they had in response were simple shrugs. I rolled my eyes then headed for the door and the lunchroom as I called back to them and smirked, "Anyone comin', or is it my turn to smack your heads with coconuts?" Andre and Cat smiled then followed, while Beck gave me a heart-melting smile and Jade a tug to follow the rest of us to lunch.
