Jade's POV
"So is everyone set meet at Karaoke Dokie at 8 tonight?" Vega asked the group as they all sat down for lunch. I made a groaning sound to show Vega my blatant disgust with her idea for a group outing, again.
"Oh come on Jade we all know you love to sing and be the center of attention. So why don't you give Tori a break." Beck said to me, he's always trying to get me to be nice to Vega. "First of course I love being the center of attention, have you seen me? I'm a bombshell. Second of course I love singing but this idea was thought up by Vega which makes it a stupid idea." I snapped back in my usual cold tone.
Beck sighed and went back to eating giving Tori an apologetic look. He always seems to be apologizing to people for my attitude. If I wanted people to feel good after I talked to them I would talk to them nicer.
I looked over at Cat and could noticed her hand was on becks leg, I shot her a one of my famous glares and she curled up into herself afraid that I had seen something, which of course I had but she didn't need to know that.
"How about it Jade?" Vega asked but I hadn't the slightest clue of what she wanted. "WHAT! I barked at her causing her to cringe.
"I…I just wanted to know if you wanted to come over my house later and study lines for Sikowitz's class?" Vega asked shyly. "Yea sure whatever." I said to her, I could never say no to Vega when she talked like that. She was so fucking adorable.
"Alright I'll see you after school then!" She squeaked perking up. The group went on socializing the rest of lunch but all I could focus on was Vega. Her Dark coffee eyes could drive me wild with just one look and her caramel skin was to die for.
While I was admiring Vega the bell rang and lunch had ended. Everyone was getting up to leave I noticed Cat's hand slide off of Beck's seemingly hard cock. "No, no that can't be I must just be seeing things." I whispered to myself just shrugging it off.
As school ended I said goodbye to Beck and told Vega I would meet her at her house. I stopped off at the coffee shop to pick up my daily after school coffee. "Give me a large. And make it black like my soul." I barked at the kid behind the counter.
"Sure coming right up. Hey you're Jade West aren't you? I just wanted to tell you that when it doesn't work out between you and Beck I'm single." He said winking at me. I slammed his hand on the table and stabbed my scissors in between two of his fingers. "Don't ever say another word to me you misogynistic pig, and if I ever hear you say another word I will take these scissors and cut out your tongue. Understand?" I screeched at him.
He nodded his head and handed me my coffee and didn't even charge me. I walked out the door and put my scissors in my back pocket with a smug smile on my face. I got into my car and drove off to Vega's.
I stopped at a stoplight and was about to turn when Beck's car pulled up next to me. Cat was in the passenger seat; I was wondering what they were doing together when they started making out. Shocked I stepped on the pedal and ran the light trying to get away as fast as possible before one of them saw me. I arrived in Vega's driveway five minutes later. I sat in my car for a few minutes trying to gather my composure so Vega wouldn't think anything was wrong. I got out of my car and walked over to a near by tree and started to punch it letting out all of my frustration. After about ten punches of imagining Beck's face instead of a tree I couldn't move my bruised knuckles. I wrapped them up in some pre-wrap that I had in my car so that Vega wouldn't notice.
I walked up to the Vega household and knocked on the door. Within thirty seconds Vega was at the door being her perky self, giving me a hug when she opened the door. I growled in her ear and she backed off. I didn't really want her to stop because I relished her touch and the way she smelled, but I have a reputation of hating Vega to keep.
"Sorry Jade, I forgot about your crazy weird boundary issues." She said backing off looking rather sad.
"I'll give you a pass this time Vega but don't let it happen again." I said giving her a small split second smile.
She perked back up and turned to walk toward the couch spewing something about her parents not being home or whatever. It didn't matter to me at all.
"Alright so where should we start on the script?" Vega asked.
"Ya know Vega we could always just hang out for a little bit instead of rehearsing. I mean if you still want to be my friend and all." Tori almost jumped through the roof at hearing me say that.
"Yes, yes! Of course I do. I knew you would eventually feel the same way Jade!" She squeaked.
Tori Vega you beautiful fool I don't think that that is as true as you think, I thought to myself. "Calm down Vega or I'll leave and we still won't be friends." I said trying not to show my excitement. She calmed down after that and we started to talk. And I was actually civil to her.
"So Vega what do you want to talk about?" I asked her.
"Uhm well I would say we could talk about boys but you are with Beck so that is out, neither of us like sports. Uhm I don't really know what kinda music you like." She said sounding genuinely interested.
"Well actually I like Ska music mostly. I also like punk music and I listen to some screamo." I answered while she sat listening intently.
"Oh ska music I've heard of that, Sublime is one of those bands right?" she asked.
"Yea actually they are. I'm surprised that you know that. Most people have never even heard of ska let alone know any of the bands." I said very impressed.
"What about you Vega? Oh wait let me guess, you like pop music?" I said sarcastically with a little laugh using my fake Vega impersonation on pop music. "Actually I do miss sassy pants. And I don't sound like that. But I also like Fall But Boys and Paramore." She answered.
"Wow Tori I never would have thought you were a fan of those types of bands." I said seeing her in a new light.
"Wait did you just call me Tori?" She asked with a surprised look on her face.
"I don't know anything about that." I said cursing myself for my slip up. "I called you Vega like I always do."
"Well ok then." She said seeming to just ignore it, which I was glad about.
"Ok what about plays? What is your favorite?" I asked trying to steer her away from the Tori incident.
"Don't laugh at me but I just love Jersey Boys." She said blushing "Not many people know this but The Four Seasons is my all time favorite band. I don't admit it much because I don't want to sound like a loser."
"I've never seen the play but I have heard The Four Seasons before. And to be honest I don't think that you are a loser for liking them." I told her in a sweet voice putting my hand on her leg to comfort her. We both ended up blushing and I turned away.
"So uhm what about you. What kind of horrific play is your favorite?" she asked with a little laugh.
"Actually my all time favorite play is The Rocky Horror Picture show. It was the first play I ever acted in and I've loved it from day one." I said blushing even darker than before. In an effort to comfort me Tori put her hand on mine and gave it a little squeeze before jerking her hand back for fear of what I might do to her.
Before I could assure her that I wasn't going to hurt her I looked at the clock and saw that it was 7:45. "Shit! We're gonna be late to meet the gang." I shouted to Tori. "We should leave now if we are going to get there on time."
"Fuck, Trina still isn't home and I don't have a car. What am I going to do?" She said sounding panicky.
"Don't worry about it I'll drive. And if no one can drive your sorry ass home I guess I'll take you." I said with a smirk.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" She quickly said jumping off the couch and running upstairs. "I just have to change real quick. I'll be down in a minute." She shouted down the stairs.
"So are those girl minutes or real minutes?" I shouted jokingly up at her. Before I even finished the sentence she was already on her way down the stairs in tight leggings and a purple top. "Real minutes thank you very much." She said back in a sassy tone. "Let's go before we are to late." She said hopping toward the door.
