I walked into Sikowitz's classroom early. He was sitting on the floor looking at some papers.
"Yes Jade?" Sikowitz asked without looking up.
"For the duet project, who did you put me with?" I said. It wasn't really a question. I don't really make requests. He sighed.
"Tori. Your're paired with Tori Vega. Now I'm not chang-"
"Okay." I said interrupting him.
"Okay? I expected more scissors." Sikowitz said standing up his loose clothes hanging off his fame. I just rolled my eyes and walked out of the classroom to find Beck. It actually made me feel funny knowing I was paired with Vega. I didn't hate it. What the hell is wrong with me?
"Beck!" I called out seeing the familiar head of hair.
"Sup?" He asked stopping and waiting for me to catch up.
"Guess who I'm paired with for our little project for psycho hippie?" I said stopping in front of him.
"Tori." Beck deadpanned. I opened my mouth to ask how but he stopped me. "Who else would you bother walking all the way over here to tell me about?" Damn it good point. Why did I walk all the way over here just to talk about Vega?
"Yeah. . . " I trailed off not really sure how to respond. Beck just looked at me knowing I had something else to say. He tapped his foot, ugh what a drama queen.
"Well I don't hate the idea." I said quietly. Beck just smiled knowingly at me. I really don't like him sometimes.
"You never hated her. Strongly dislike yeah but, she's a really good person." He said shrugging. I opened my mouth to protest but he gave me that look so I closed it.
"She's done a whole bunch of stuff for you without asking for anything in return." Beck said scolding me.
"Ass." I said running my fingers through my long black hair. Yeah I let it grow out. The bell rang somewhere off in the school. I shook my head and walked towards my car.
"Skipping?" Beck yelled out to me. I unlocked my car and opened the door.
"No I'm going to volunteer with the nuns of Hollywood." I said rolling my eyes and getting in the car. I turned on the ignition and drove out of Hollywood Arts. Away from people who were making me question myself and most importantly Tori.
I sat in a little coffee shop on the outside of Hollywood. Some guy was giving me eye sex from across the room. Really? Ew. I heard a muffled laugh from behind the counter, I looked seeing a blonde girl with brown eyes laughing at my current situation. I flicked her off but she just laughed harder. Oh my god! Short, smelly, and unemployed is coming over here.
"Hey baby. I saw you from across the room and I knew I had to talk to you." He said. Wow, he's even more repulsive up close.
"Resist the urge." I said pulling my coffee cup close to me.
"Come on don't be like that, I just wanna get to know you." Really asshole?
"If you don't get up and walk your sorry ass back to the gutter you came from my boot is about to get to very acquainted with your ass." I said dead serious. He was about to say something else but I stood up and started to walk over to his side. The guy scrambled away and ran out the door.
"Thank god. I haven't been able to get him to leave since last week." The blonde girl from behind the counter says coming over to me.
"I should have threatened to scissor off his already lacking package." I said sipping the black coffee.
"Your funny. I'm Nicole. What's your name?" Nicole asked. Okay normally I never talk to strangers but I dunno I just feel a little off today.
"Jade." I said leaning back in the chair.
"Aren't you suppose to be in school?" She asked. How does she know? She's only about twenty.
"Yeah. Aren't you suppose to be at work?" I shot back. Nicole shrugged.
"Ehh who cares? No one else is here. So why'd ya skip?" She asked curiously.
"I have to do a project with a girl I'm suppose to hate." I said leaning forward my hands resting on the table.
"Suppose to hate?" I sighed and explained Vega and I's history together and the recent events. Nicole blinked in surprise.
"Wow you were a huge bitch to her." Nicole said. I laughed nodding my head.
"Yeah I am." Nicole shook her head at my response.
"So you always go to this girl when shit happens in your life right?" She asked. I nodded. "And she's always nice to you, she compliments you, and really wants to be your friend?" I nodded again. "So now you feel bad about being a raging bitch to her?"
"That's what I told you." I said rolling my eyes.
"It sounds like you like this Tori girl a lot more than you're letting yourself believe." Nicole said smirking like she just figured out a damn rubik's cube. "What does she look like anyway?" I took out my phone grumbling and found Vega's slap page and showed it to her.
"Wow she's really hot. If I didn't have girlfriend I would so get that. Maybe Ash wouldn't mind if she saw her. Seriously look at that bone structure." Nicole gushed ogling Vega's picture. I growled taking my PearPhone back.
"Woah someone's jealous." She said holding her hands up in surrender. I was about to snap at her but then I paused. Wait her girlfriend?
"You're gay?" I asked raising my pierced brow.
"Mhm. I'm gayer than Ricky Martin livin' la vida loca." I laughed at her and she smiled back.
"So how'd you know?" I asked curious. I live in Hollywood and I've never met any gay people, like ever.
"It sorta hit me in the middle of a party junior year. This senior girl Ashley sorta had her tongue down my throat, and that did wonders to speed up the whole questioning stage. I never even thought about being with a girl until Ash. We've been together ever since." Nicole said her eyes shining at the mention of her girlfriend.
"That's cute." I said a little jealous of the love she had in her eyes. I didn't want her but I wanted to be in love like that.
"Not in the beginning. I gave her my v-card that night, you can imagine how crazy then next morning was. Ugh! She was such an asshole in the beginning. Players certainly test you sanity. But I wouldn't trade a moment of it." Nicole said smiling. "She's actually a lot like you, a complete badass on the outside, softie on the inside."
"I'm not a softie." I growled at her. Nicole just laughed.
"It's gross how much like her you are. Did I tell you she decked my dad?" She asked. I shook my head smirking.
"Yup. He was about to hit me when he found out I was gay but Ash pushed me behind her and punched him right in the face." Nicole chuckled at the memory. Yeah that is something I would do. I looked at the black leather bracelet with chains on my wrist playing with it.
"School is almost out. Go back and work on your duet with Tori. And be nice, you owe her." Nicole said. I got up and brushed my black skinny jeans off.
"I'll try." I said throwing my empty coffee cup in the trash and just as I was about to walk out I heard Nicole yell
"Hey you never know. Maybe she'll give you her v-card!" I shook my head chuckling and walked out into the California heat. I couldn't help but notice that the idea Nicole had given me didn't disgust me. My stomach did a little flip at the thought. I groaned opening the door to my car.
"I'm so screwed." I said sighing starting the engine and driving back to Hollywood Ats to get Vega.
Author's Note: And there we go! So I decided to do Jade's POV again because someone said it was more interesting and it kind of is but I do like Tori too. Before I forget! OH MY GOD THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR ALL OF THE REVIEWS! I read all of them. You have no idea how happy they made me. I like ran around the house giggling and squealing like an idiot. Seriously my mom was like, "Zaynab! Stop screaming!" Eh whateves. But thank you guys so much again it's amazing for someone's story you read to review your story. It's like taking esctacy, even though I've never taken it, you get what I'm trying to say.
And Newsies73 I laughed more than I should have at your unintended pun, and thank you so much! By the way you're awesome.
