A/N: This is going to be my first time that I stray away from my usual Disney... Be critical, and enjoy...if it's good
I would love for Tori and Cat to get together, but I believe that her character in the show has yet to develop enough personality... (no offence)
THIS IS A RE-POST!
I read what K9GM3 said, and I decided to change the ending of this chapter:
Jade/Cat
It was still a tad awkward for them to sit at the same table. It has been only two weeks since their break up, and there was still a little bit of tension in the group. It was especially hard for Tori and Beck to hide their obvious chemistry. Everyone walked on eggshells in attempts to not say anything dumb in front of Jade and Beck, but especially Jade.
Cat bounced up and down in her seat with her eyes wandering away from reality.
"So what song did you decide on, Tor?" Andre asked as he took another bite of his ziti.
"Ugh, I'm not sure yet. I don't even have an idea!" she huffed.
"I'm sure you'll come up with something." he said between chews. "You always do."
Their conversation was interrupted by Trina slamming her tray down onto the table. "Ugh!" Look what this humidity is doing to my hair!" she cried out, taking a seat right next to Beck, which earned a scowl from Jade.
"Aw, but your your hair looks great, Trina." Cat said in her usually perky tone.
"You wouldn't know what good hair is if you ever had a good hair day." she spat.
Cat pouted and put her head down as she fiddled with the tips of her velvet red hair. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Can it, Trina. No one wants you at this table!" Jade snapped as she bit into her black painted fingernails.
Trina quickly sat there with her lips sealed shut with a glare beaming through her eyes. Jade rolled her eyes and stood up from the table.
"Where are you going?" Cat asked sadly.
"Away." she huffed, swung her back over her shoulder and stormed off.
"Oh." she returned to her perky self. "Kay. Bye." she waved at Jades back and went back to starring into space.
oOoOo
"Jade?" a mousy voice echoed throughout the bathroom. "I recognize your boots..." she said cautiously.
"What'da want?"
"I-I heard you sniffling. Are you crying?"
"I don't cry!"
"Are you sick? 'Cause if you are, I know this really good remedy that my grandmother tried teaching me. I only remember half of it, and it's good for upset stomachs and dia..."
"I'm fine!" she shouted.
"Kay." Cat stood on the other side of the stall and began to hum.
"Why are you still here?"
"I'm waiting for you to get out of the stall, silly."
Silly? "I'll come out on my own." she snapped.
Cat pouted. "Well, I was just worried because you didn't show up to Sikowitz's class. We were supposed to be partners for the exercises, remember?"
Jade huffed and swung open the door. Cat went to greet her with a smile but quickly turned into a frown when she noticed that Jades make up was streaming down her face. "Jade..."
"Not a word..." she said as she stormed over to the sink with a wad of rolled up toilet paper and began to wipe her make up off.
Cat stood behind Jade and looked at their reflection in the mirror. She pinched her thumb and index finger together and slid it across her lips. She stood there quietly with a huge smile.
"How are you always so perky?" she sniffled.
Cat shrugged. "There are worse things going on in the world than what's happening to me at the moment, so I'm always just grateful that I'm not in that situation." she explained as she bounced up and down on the balls of her feet.
Jade rolled her eyes and laughed. "I don't know how you do it."
"Well, I think of an earthquake completely demolishing my house leaving me homeless or even possibly killing me, and then I think, Hey, that's not happening to me! and I feel so much better about everything."
"Twisted." Jade mouthed and completely washed all the make-up off of her face.
"Awe. You have freckles!" she pointed to her nose, which earned her a death glare from Jane. "It's so cute! I have freckles too, and so does my mom and my brother and..."
"Freckles aren't cute!" Jade interrupted, then noticed her fleeting words. She cleared her throat. "On me... I don't do cute."
"I think you're... skirt's cute." she said with a pout.
"Listen, cute works for you, but not for me. I'm hot... who can't keep a boy friend." she forcefully threw out the eye-liner filled wad as she felt her eyes begin to water up once more.
"Well, you guys always fought... He is a great guy, but maybe he wasn't meant to be your boy friend." she shrugged. Jade looked up at the reflection and huffed. "I think if you care about him enough, you'd want to at least keep him around as a friend. People change into what they're meant to be... and maybe he's just not meant to be with you, but it's okay." Jane put on a slight smirk. "I know he still loves and cares about you, but it's just a different love... and you're not losing him, Jade. He's still here if you just let him."
"Thanks." she mumbled under her breath with a slight smile.
"Yay!" she clapped her hands together, and quickly wrapped her arms around Jades neck. "I made Jade feel better."
A little bit too much perkiness for me, but I'll let it slide today. "Not a word to anyone..."
Cat frantically nodded, still attached to Jade. "Are you going to your next class?" she asked with her face buried into Jades jacket.
"I think I'm going to take the rest of the day off." she smiled swung her back pack over her shoulder and they both began to walk out of the bathroom.
Cat skipped behind her to catch up. "Can I come too?" she asked in a very childish tone.
How was Jade able to say no? "Fine, but I'm going to the book cafe."
"Yay! I love books!" she clapped and continued to skip down the hallway next to Jade who sported an ever so slight smile.
A/N: If you've read my stories before, you should know that they're definitely going to get together.
