i don't own VICTORiOUS.

Prologue

It was a day like any other in Hollywood Arts. The students went about their day, expressing themselves in talent. Nothing out of the ordinary. Just a random day in April.

But for Jade West, this random day was the day the completely broke her heart. Back in January, when she and Beck broke up, she convinced herself it was only temporary; that they would get back after a few weeks, but that didn't happen. It had been four months, and after what she saw in Sikowits's classroom, she knew it wasn't just temporary. It was permanent.

Beck had Tori pinned to the wall. One hand on her breast, the other caressing her ass. Tori's hands where pulling Beck's hair. And the moans of pleasure; it was just too much for Jade. She closed the door with a loud bang and left.

She hid back her tears as she walked away. They were calling after her, but she ignored them. Tori ran after her.

"Jade! Stop! " Tori stopped her by her locker.

"What? What? " Jade shouted, completely losing her composter.

"Listen, I know we aren't the best of friends-"

"I hate you." Jade stated matter-of-factly.

People had started gathering around the two. Beck leaned up against the lockers not wanting to be a part of what was about to happen.

"O.K. but Jade, you and Beck broke up four months ago. It was expected that he would have moved on by now. I'm actually surprised it took him this long. I think you should do the same."

"Look, Tori." Jade tried sounding threatening. "For all I care, you and Beck can go fuck in front of the president. The only thing that upset me is that I was walking into class to pick up a script and I find two people nearly fucking on the stage!"

"Jade, I'm sorry about that, but we love each other and just got excited."

And that was when her body betrayed her and Jade started crying.

"I'm sure he loves you." She looked over to Beck. "Don't you Beck?" she looked back at Tori. "I bet he said you where the one, the one he wants to spend the rest of his life with, the one that makes him complete?" Jade started laughing hysterically. "Tori, you are just too perfect." Jade walked towards the door, people stepping out of her way. "Sometimes, I wish you would just die."

And with that, Jade walked out of Hollywood Arts; her perky red-headed best friend close behind.
