Tori sighed, sitting in her desk and as the last bell rang she got up and started packing her things in her bag. She made her way to her locker and put her books away, getting ready for winter break. She turned off the lights on her locker and smile as she walked towards the parking lot. Trina had already left, leaving her there, again. She sighed and shrugged as she put her headphones in and started to slowly walk towards home, her heels clicking under her steps though she couldn't hear them, nor could she hear the car pull up behind her. She felt her phone go off and she took one of her head phones out placing the phone by her ear quietly,"Hello?"
Jade watched every single move of her that day, deciding to get rid of that paranoid state and of those questions in her mind. She was going to find out what was going on, and she was doing it /today/.
It was the last day of school before winter break, and she waited until everyone went home and watched, quietly, Tori making her way to the parking lot. Jade got into her car and followed the girl from a certain distance, noticing how distracted she was. Halfway to Tori's house, she took her phone out, typing the girl's number and watching her through the window as she waited for her to answer.
"Get in my car, Vega. Now."
"What? Jade? Are you crazy?"She said into the phone. She closed her eyes quietly and sighed softly,"Look Jade, I'm going home to relax. It's winter break, so leave me alone." She sighed quietly as she closed her eyes and hung up putting her phone up in her back pocket.
She rolled her eyes, stopping her car a few meters for the girl and getting out. She smirked, walking up to Tori from behind, resting her hands on the girl's hips and leaning in to whisper seductively on her ear. "C'mon, Vega.. I just wanna take you out for a bit. Like you said, it's winter break.. let's have some fun." She smirked widely, holding the girl close. If her suspicions were right.. the girl wouldn't be able to resist it, and her plan would work out great.
Tori tensed at the girls' icey touch but leaned back into it as she whispered to her quietly. She didn't notice the girl slip her phone from her pocket, and she closed her eyes shivering quietly. She opened her eyes slightly and looked back at the girl shivering hard at those venomous green eyes and she swallowed rather hard,"Fi-Fine." She cleared her throat as she pried herself out of the girls grip and slowly walked towards the girls car.
Jade smiled triumphantly, discreetly placing Tori's phone into her jeans pocket and walking back into the car, starting it and hitting the road.
"So.." She started, eyes firm on the street in front of them. "..hope you didn't make any plans for tonight. I'm intending to keep you /very/ busy." She said slowly, glancing over the girl with the corner of her eyes, smirking a bit as she /knew/ Tori would take her words with a total different meaning.
Tori blushed deeply and she looked down at her lap. She was in a car, being taken away from the stresses of the city life, of school, and home by the girl that she loved. Too bad Jade didn't know that, and Tori couldn't ever just admit it. She sighed and looked up at Jade, could she really be talking about sex? Tori traces small circles up Jade's arm with her finger gently,"So you don't intend to share me with any of my other friends?"she pouted cutely.
She narrowed her eyes when she felt the light touch on her arm, the smirk widening on her lips as she turned to look deeply into Tori's eyes, keeping her stuck there.
"Not at all.." She said, glancing over the road just for a second, seeing they were passing through a tunnel, everything around getting suddenly dark, only a few streetlights lighten up their way. "..tonight you're all mine." She said quietly, playing with the words at the tip of her tongue, eyes piercing into Tori' moment was over when the tunnel ended, daylight filling the car again, Jade looking back to the road, smiling a bit.
Tori shivered as they maintained eye contact and suddenly felt herself snap back to reality as they broke it. She glanced at Jade before shivering and looked out the window. How was this possible? Was Jade trying to seduce her? Could Jade possibly want this as bad as she did? She shook the questions from her head and watched the trees fly by the window. Soon the ride put her to sleep and she was passed out solid, curled up in the passenger seat, snoring ever so lightly to the point where it was cute not annoying. Tori's hair fell over her face and her head rested against the window.
Jade kept her eyes on the road, aware of Tori's quiet state beside her. She didn't really have anything else to say, so she just kept driving, observing when in a few minutes, they were getting out of town.
She glanced over at Tori at a moment, her eyebrows raising and a strange feeling twisting down her stomach at how.. peaceful she looked. Her brown hair falling carefully down her face, tan cheekbones glowing at the light sunset light coming through the window, making her look nothing but innocent.
Jade almost felt bad for what she was going to do.. but she couldn't help it. She /had/ to know.
She had to know that.. in all the times she'd spot Tori looking at her in class, the girl would actually blush when she looked away. She had to know what that stupid and goofy smile Tori would always offer her.. was pure kindness or if it meant something else. She needed to know if when the girl stuttered, it was because of /her/. Jade just needed to know if all those signs were real.. because she was visibly going crazy, at the thought that it could be all just something her mind made up.
If she was making herself see.. what she wanted to believe. Completely lost in thought, she hardly noticed when they got to the place, almost passing through it. She parked the car carefully, not wanting to wake up Tori. She got out her side and took a look around, sighing at the strange and creepy house in front of her. Sometimes she'd even ask herself /how/ she found such places.. abandoned ones, in the middle of the woods. She walked up to Tori's door, opening it and carefully taking the girl in her arms, kicking the car door close behind her and walking up to the house's front door. She entered the place and went straight to the basement, sitting Tori slowly down one of the chairs and walking up to sit on the stairs. She took her pack of cigarettes from her pocket and her lighter, lighting it up and smoking it slowly, observing the sleepy girl as she waited for her to wake up.
It was about another hour until she woke up. She whined as she squirmed in the chair and opened her eyes. She looked around before standing up. She could see the familiar glow of a cigarette. "Where am I?"She spoke to the anonymous shadows sitting in the dark. She slowly moved around the dark basement, looking around as she tried to adjust her eyes, but it was just too dark for her to see. She slowly made her way to the stairs and thought about it before she remembered,"Jade, where are we?"She whined as she made her way up a few steps towards the girl.
She took a long breath when she realized Tori was awake. She didn't move an inch, watching as the girl walked around, trying to figure out where she was. When she stopped in front of her, a few steps down on the stairs, Jade only took another deep inhale, looking lazily at Tori as she blew the smoke on her face. "Just.. a place I know." She sighed, throwing her cigarette away, opening her legs and resting her elbows on her knees as she looked down at Tori. "Do you like it? It's really dark.. and desert in here." She smirked into the dark, staring at Tori's blur figure.
Tori couldn't see the girls smirk but judging by the evil glint in her eyes she knew she was smirking,"Jade what are we doing here?" She said and moved closer to her sitting down beside her as she rested her head on the girls shoulder gently. She yawned sleepily and snuggled up to Jade's side gently,"Why don't we go cuddle and watch a movie? It's cold down here,"She whimpered as she shivered and rubbed her arms slowly.
Jade swallowed hard, her heart beating a bit faster when Tori got so close. She almost wrapped her arms around the girl as well, but then she remembered why she got her here in the first place.
"Yeah, uhm.. no. It's better if.. we don't." She said, frowning to herself as she got up and walked away from Tori, walking up the stairs and leaning her back against the basement's closed door. She knew Tori wouldn't react really well to the rejection.. but she couldn't allow herself to be close, or she'd end up melting as well. She didn't really know how to do it. But.. if she wanted Tori to confess it, she'd have to act more cold. Act like she didn't care. Deep down, she felt bad for doing this with the girl.. but she just /needed/ to know the truth.
Tori felt Jade pull away and walk up the steps. She whined quietly and clenched her fists tightly moving back down the stairs quietly. Of course this girl didn't want the same thing. She felt so stupid to letting herself believe that Jade West might /actually/ like her. She felt tears prick at her eyes as she moved out of sight into the darker shadows, hiding from Jade as she tried not to cry.
Jade had to breath deeply for a long moment, listening to Tori swallow her cries. She hated this. She hated having to act like a horrible person, and making the girl suffer. But she knew it was the only way of making Tori talk. Being anxious and afraid the way that girl was, she'd would admit something over pressure. So, after a minute, Jade took a deep breath and decided to put up her façade. "Oh, stop being such a baby, Vega. Why are you crying, anyway?" She asked sharply, crossing her arms.
"I can't believe I actually fell for your trap and let you bring me here for your own sick and twisted amusement! I thought you actually genuinely cared for once! I thought you had at least an ounce of decency in your pathetic little soul! But...,"She stopped as the tears finally came and she slid down the wall,"but I was wrong...I've always been wrong..and he was right..Beck was /so/ right!" She hugged her knees tight and shook her head,"I never should I convinced myself that I liked you...that I loved you...I'm tired of being played with damn it!" She stood up and grabbed whatever was closest to her flinging it across the room and listening to the resound echos as the chair tumbled across the room and slammed into the wall. "Since we met I've been choking down feelings for you! Feelings that Beck, and Cat, and Andre all told me to ignore! They were so right when they said it would be impossible and stupid to think you could ever feel the same way, or even half relate to the way I feel about you! When I see you in the hallway kissing Beck and it makes me sick at my stomach, and it breaks my heart into a thousand different pieces! When I catch you looking at me during class and it makes me blush! I should have known it was all just some sick twisted game that you like to play with me, like I'm some kind of mouse, your pray!" Tori stopped as she tried to breathe quietly, almost on the verge on a panic attack,"I...I can't do it anymore Jade..I'm tired of suffering because of you...I just want it to stop..all the lying all the pain...,"she fell to the floor curling up into a tight ball as she held her knees tight to her chest,"I just want it to stop." She finished screaming and only the loud sounds of her sobbing filled the dark place.
Jade listened carefully to every single word, feeling them as a stab into her heart. That girl.. that /damn/ girl.. loved her? She felt like her whole plan was over, and she couldn't care less about it. She just.. she just wanted to disappear, to fucking hide herself in a hole and never come out. To see Tori suffering.. to know the girl /felt/ and probably still feel pain and sorrow over her.. it was too much. It was way too much for her to handle. She thought that knowing about Tori's feeling for her would be somehow relieving.. would make her somehow feel better about herself and about her own feelings. But she was wrong. She just felt sick. She hardly noticed when she started crying, a loud, low sound of a sob coming out of her lips, her shaky breath filling the room as she stood up quickly, running her way downstairs."Do you think I don't?! Do you really think I want to see you like /this/, crying because of /me/, Vega? Do you?!" She screamed at Tori's dark figure on the floor."I never asked for this, I never wanted any of this! I never.. I never wanted /you/ coming into my life! You ruined everything! You and your shiny personality and bright talent and your freaking kindness! I hate everything about it. I hate how things will just come to you so easily! I hate how.. how you made me think, for /months/, that I was jealous of Beck falling in love with you. When really.. shit, it was just me being blind enough not to see that you, fucking /you/, was everything I wanted! And you are! You're everything I want, because you're everything I'm not!" She spit the words out with anger, rage building up inside her like poison and only making more and more tears run down her face."How care you /seriously/ think I wouldn't feel the same? Do you really think, that if I didn't care, we'd be here? I would just ignore you and move on with my life, pretend you didn't exist. And the fact that I can't.. kills me! It fucking kills me and I hate myself for it! You make me feel something I absolutely couldn't feel.. and I just hate the fact that I can't get rid of it! It never ends!" She closed her eyes tightly, breathing sharply, her chest hurting from the feeling of letting out of that come out."Our friends.. they are actually freaking right for telling you to ignore it. You should! You should just get up now and leave me here, because I don't deserve your tears, I don't deserve your pain and I don't deserve seeing you /suffering/ for me, Tori. Do you understand how /sick/ it is? How.. how /could/ you possibly love me? All I ever do is push you away, because I don't want you near! I need it.. but I don't want and I shouldn't allow it! It's.. it's easier.. being harsh to you.. making it seem like I hate you. Because really, do you even understand how /terrifying/ it is, the idea of letting you in? Of letting you /love/ me? It scares the absolute crap out of me and I hate you for making me feel like this, I just.." She sobbed, falling on her knees, shaking her head as if trying to make all of that go away.. "Please.. don't.. don't do this. Don't do this do yourself, look.. look at you! Look at us! You're laying on the floor in the middle of this creepy place just because I thought that.. driving you here, would make you feel scared and you'd finally admit your feeling for me.. but look at what it turned out! It makes me feel sick, and I just.." She breathed heavily, hiding her face in her hands, letting all of that pain come out. "..I'm sorry. I'm so fucking sorry."
