"I didn't think that would bother her so much." Tori stated with a concerned face, her closer friend, Andre nodded as they walked to their next period, "And does it look like Beck is enjoying it?" she stopped and looked at her books, "Honestly, Beck has always liked to make her jealous." Andre simply answered as he continued walking, "See you in class, Tori" he called as he entered another room.
Tori bit her lip and looked around waiting for Cat and Robbie to appear and on time the two were walking towards her, "You texted?" Cat asked as she showed Tori her Pear phone. "I asked if you would take a picture of the new teacher, because that's your next class." Tori said with confusion, she looked to Robbie and Rex, "We got it, Sweet Cheeks." Rex exclaimed as Robbie grabbed Cat's arm as the bell rang, Tori watched them as she hesitantly called after, "Which ones?" "Below the belt!" Cat answered back as Robbie ushered her into a different class room and disappearing behind the door. Tori's face twisted into disgust as she took off to her class to meet with Andre.
"Why are you so late?" Andre asked as Tori sat down beside him, "I asked Robbie and Cat to try to get a picture of the new Teacher." She huffed as she tried to catch her breath, "Tori, you're gonna open a can of worms and why do you want a picture?" Andre distressed to her, she shook her head. "I wanna show Jade, maybe she'll see she has nothing to worry about." Tori seemed very sincere for someone who wasn't really mutually friends with Jade West, but Andre gave up the urge to negotiate the situation for he already knew Tori forgot she was model, but hopefully Jade's ego was big enough to save her.
Robbie was sitting at a table next to Cat's and he fumbled with his phone getting ready to take a picture, but as Cat kept looking over at him and hissing at him as the rest of the class settled in. But as Robbie looked up Beck entered the class room still carrying the portfolio, he smiled toward Robbie and Cat as he casually strolled over to them, "Hey you two" he greeted with a charming smile. Robbie placed his phone in his lap, "Hey Beck, what are you doing here?" Robbie nervously laughed, "Mostly likely returning the portfolio." Mocked Rex; Robbie quickly covered Rex's mouth and smiled at Beck again. Beck shook his head and laughed, "Yeah, actually that's why I'm here. She texted me asking to bring it back in for this class." "She texted you?" Cat asked, "The teacher?" Beck nodded as he looked to Cat. "How does she have your number?" Beck froze at that question and quickly looked over his shoulder as he tried to think of something to say, but to his profound luck the new Teacher emerged from her back office.
A sharp gasp came from everyone in the class as she walked out with confidence, she was normal height, but she wore high red heels and flare jeans that were ripped up on her thighs. The pants made her legs seem toned and her butt a sight of perfection, but not even that artistic sculpt could match the rest of her body; Her dark red hair almost reached her hips and were loosely curled in natural waves and her skin seemed to be a pale shimmering warmth from the long matching red stripped tube top that flowed around her upper body.
Rex's mouth dropped to an open and Robbie's eyes got wide, but Cat seemed unfazed as she stared hard at Beck, who was no longer looking at her, but the female teacher. "Thank you for holding on to that for me, Dear." The woman cooed as she approached Beck, he smiled widely and handed her the portfolio, as she reached into the side of her top and pulled a small roll of money out and handing it to him, "There's some lunch money." Beck took it and placed it in his jacket pocket. She turned and walked to her desk and laid the case down, Beck followed behind her closely and as the teacher turned around she opened her arms toward him.
Cat snatched out her phone and raised it as Beck placed his arms around the woman's waist and hugged her. The teacher smiled brightly and hugged him around his neck and giving an extra squeeze, but with Cat's blood boiling she quickly took the picture of the two hugging and lowered her phone as Robbie looked over in disbelief. "Don't send that!" Robbie whispered loudly, "Use it!" Rex cheered, but with that Beck and the teacher released each other and she scribbled a pass on a sticky note and handed it to Beck. She looked directly at Robbie, her eyes solid, and later Robbie would plead either out of paranoia or truth that her eyes gleamed a menacing red.
Cat quickly sent the picture to Tori as the teacher started talking, "Hello, I'm the new teacher." She announced, "I hear everyone was waiting to meet me, so, my name is Marilyn Titova. But you, my dears, can call me Red if you please." She seemed sweet and talked with politeness to her students as class began, she chose for today's period to be introducing them to her as the year had already started.
Tori's phone buzzed in the middle of class which went unnoticed, but Tori quickly grabbed her phone out of her bag. She looked to Andre, "Cat sent a picture." Andre leaned over to look as his curious nature got a hold of his train of thought. Tori reluctantly opened the text to view the picture, but when it loaded and appeared Tori went white and gasped for air as Andre smirked, "She is totally hott." He snickered as Tori elbowed him, "This is awful!" she burst to loudly as their Teacher turned around to look at her, he glared and Tori sucked in another breath, "I-I don't understand!" she lied, the male teacher grunted, "Well if you would let me finish Miss Vega." He said as he turned around to continue explaining a theory of Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction in 2004.
Andre frowned at Tori, "What do you mean?" he asked with full suspicion of Tori's idea, "He's sleeping with Titova." She hissed as she started to feel angry, "Tori, that's a little far don't you think?" he pleaded, "Fine, but they have to at least be seeing each other." She stated as she showed him the picture again. "Look his head is practically rest on her chest!" aware of her volume she glance at their teacher before looking back at Andre, "I'll believe you when there is proof, but DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT show this to Jade." He demanded, Tori nodded, "Agreed, she would lose her mind." Tori placed her phone back into her bag before covering her face with her hands and sighing as she leaned back in her seat. "Tori, don't let it affect you, we'll get to the bottom of it, I promise." Andre smiled at her, "We can always just ask Beck, you know he won't hide anything." Tori looked through her fingers, "He's been acting weird all day." "Tori, give him a benefit of doubt." Andre's face made it clear that they weren't going to talk about it until they regrouped or asked Beck then, but as Tori place her confidence in her best friend she felt sick of just the thought of how Jade would feel if it were true.
The rest of the current period Tori spent thinking about when Beck tried to kiss her, she did find him unbelievably attractive like every girl in Hollywood Arts, even like her sister, but her morals and her strange loyalty to her so called friend Jade kept her from making any mistakes, or more so, a risk. Thankfully Tori knew herself well enough to never be caught up in a boy, she learned that lesson the hard way, but least it wasn't devastating to her. She continued on to wonder about a small group of possibilities of the situation that has arose, but quickly she jerked back to reality as the bell rang and Andre rose out of his seat and waited on her. She gave a sad smile to her friend as she left the classroom and to head to lunch with Robbie and Cat to hopefully make a plan.
Robbie jogged up to Tori and Andre with Cat behind him as they met in the normal spot for lunch, but before they could slow down to discuss everything they had to hide in Sikowitz's room so neither Beck nor Jade could find them. As they sat down in a circle they looked around at each other, "So, we need to find this out." Tori began, "I say we just ask him." Andre cut in swiftly, "Yeah." agreed Robbie, "I doubt he's just going to tell us." Cat mumbled as she squeezed her stuffed companion, "But he's still our friend right?" she looked up at Robbie and Andre, then to Tori, "Right?" Tori smiled weakly at Cat, "Right." She answered.
