Author's note: This is just a collection of one-shots and drabbles that I decided to write. Each one will either be friendship, romance, or both with any shipping. Ones I ship, ones I don't, it will just be various.

The first one is a ship that I don't support, but I think would be interesting to see on the show. The shipping: Bat. Please review and tell me if I did or did not give the shipping a good writing. Thank you.

Disclaimer: I don't own Victorious nor do I own 'Dani California' by the Red Hot Chili Peppers (the title comes from a line in the song).

She can't like him. She shouldn't like him. She doesn't like him . . . right?

Who is she kidding? Every girl has their eyes set on him, and she's no exception. I mean, who wouldn't want him to themselves? That fluffy, black hair. Those wonderful eyes. And that body. Shivers go down her spine when she sees him. Yet, she knows it's not meant to be.

He would never want her. Her mind is full of unicorns, rainbows, and leprechauns, but that doesn't mean that a storm cloud doesn't occasionally come and rain on her parade. He could have any girl he wanted. That pain is even more terrible because that girl, the one who's his and his alone. She's her best friend. And if they weren't together, he would probably have her other best friend. She can't hate them, but, sometimes she feels like she does. That feeling is what she hates.

She thinks she sees him looking at her and her only. She just passes it off as her imagination. But she wishes, everytime 11:11 comes on the clock, she wishes that her happy ending will happen. And he's her prince charming.

*7 is their lucky number*

He shouldn't like her. He has a girlfriend. Plus, said girlfriend and other girl are friends. Best friends. He doesn't want to be the cause of ruining what they have. But, he can't help what love does.

When he first saw her, he couldn't help but think how cute she looked. Her red hair also caught his attention. Her personality only helped him fall harder. But, then, he made a mistake.

'Don't assume things' is what he was told by his parents. But, of course, he doesn't listen. He assumes that his best friend and her are dating. He assumes that the songs he writes are for her. Maybe they are, maybe they're not. But assumptions is what made him ask her best friend out (he'd be lying if he didn't say he liked her as well).

The three years that they have together is full of love. He does love her, but he also loves her. Besides, he's pretty sure that other guys (specifially a ventriloquist and a musician) will have her. When she showed up with him, he felt pain sting him, and he laughed when another girl sprayed cheese on him (but he also felt anger when it got on her). But he has to remember he already loves another . . . right?

There will be other, more deserving guys for her. They'd treat her right, like she should be. But, whether as a friend or lover, if they try anything, he will kick their asses. He'll always be by her side and he doesn't want to leave.

*Guess 7 isn't the lucky number it's made to be*
