Random info: There was an apparent knife fight at 4 in the afternoon in my neighborhood. Some guy was pissed at some girl and was threatening her or something. The guy and his friend ran off when people started checking to see what was going off, and as he was walking away, he was mouthing off to random people that he saw as he walked away. Some girl, either the girl he was threatening, a friend, or someone random, chased the guy and his friend, while the first guy continued talking shit about everyone, and the girl kept asking him why he was the one walking away if he was the one trying to be tough. My hometown, Butler, PA, sucks ass.

This is day two's one-shot. This one is more lighthearted than the last, and slightly AU. It's shorter than the first, and is more of an explanation. I originally was unsure about writing a sequel, but I decided that this one, and the next two, are part of the same arc. You'll see what I mean when you read them.

Enjoy.

No POV

At a young age, Jadelyn West has always wanted a treehouse. By the time she was seven she finally got it after her and her family moved into a large house with a big backyard and plenty of trees for the treehouse to rest.

A few months after the treehouse was built, a new family moved into the house next door. The family, one equal to the Wests in the sense that there was a mother, father, and two kids, quickly became friends of the Wests.

Where the Wests had a daughter and younger son, the Vega's had two daughters, their ages very close together. Jade, the eldest of the West siblings, was the same age as the youngest Vega sibling, Victoria, or Tori as she prefered.

Trina, Tori's older sister, was an annoyance in Jade's eyes. At a year older than Jade and Tori, Trina always seemed to insist that Tori was there to do the elder Vega's bidding, much to Jade's chagrin.

As the years have passed, Tori and Jade have become incredibly close. So close, that with each girls birthdays, both girls would stay the night in the treehouse. The tree house was made in such a way that is was more like a small, livable shack. On the rare cold days of L.A., the walls prevented the heat from being unbearable to the girls. And on the hot days, there were fans to keep them cool, powered by a generator Mr. West had set up when Jade turned 10 and insisted it was needed.

Now at fourteen, Jade and Tori have gotten even closer, so much so that they are always together, at school, home, everything nowadays. When Jade applied for the arts school Hollywood Arts, she convinced Tori to apply as well. Thankfully, according to both girls, they both got called back and eagerly got ready for their new school.

Unfortunately, Trina was jealous and had to go to the same school, which she somehow did, since neither Jade nor Tori knew what Trina's talent could be.

The beginning of their ninth grade year took a turn neither girl expected, and one of them didn't want.

Early into the year, Jade was asked out by one of the popular boys of the school, and acting prodigy named Beck, and she agreed. Over the next two years, Tori and Jade have become distant, and Jade has changed. Though she did have a liking for black and horror movies, it became more than just a clothing choice and fascination for Jade. She dyed her hair black, started wearing dark blue, dark purple, dark green, and black clothing/make up, got two piercings, one on her left eyebrow and the other her right nostril, and became known as 'The Wicked Witch Of The West' around Hollywood Arts because of her attitude and actions towards the other students, and even some of the faculty.

Tori, on the other hand, kept her clothing style and attitude the same, kind of a preppy look matching with a happy personality, except when Jade was around. The two still hung out, but now it's more from mutual friends, than the two being friends themselves. Jade's new best friend is a hyper redheaded girl named Cat, whose innocent demeanor is a complete opposite of Jade, yet the two are seemingly closer than Tori and Jade used to be, at least to Tori's eyes. André, a talented singer/song writer/musician became Tori's newest best friend. Though close, the two are still not as close as Tori and Jade used to be.

Robbie Shapiro, and old friend of Jade's boyfriend Beck, became the sixth and final member of the group when Beck introduced the awkward ventriloquist to the others middle of eighth grade.

Now, in the eleventh grade, Tori and Jade are more distant than either girl thought, but Jade's new persona prevents her from trying to form that old friendship again, fear of a feeling she started to have for the tanned girl resurfacing, hence why she agreed to go out with Beck in the first place and why she kept Tori at a distance.

What no one knows, other than Jade, is that the Goth has started to develop a crush on the half-Latina. The crush started on Jade's thirteenth birthday, when both girls stayed the night in the treehouse and Tori suggested to play a game of spin the bottle/truth or dare. She first realized she started crushing on Tori around the time Tori's questions revolved around Jade admitting her first crush, first kiss, and the like.

Tori didn't realize it, but when she asked about Jade's first crush, which was after the first kiss question, Jade had a small blush when she lied and said she didn't have one. Tori never caught the lie, her trust in Jade telling the truth being the main reason why she didn't question it, so she let it go. Jade never got the nerve, even after becoming the Goth who holds nothing back and always speaks her mind, to tell Tori the truth.

Tori always tells everyone that she has no problem with Jade and Beck dating, and that she doesn't have a crush on Beck, the latter of which is true, but why does she always look away when Beck kisses Jade?

As for Jade, for someone trying to push her feelings for Tori down and bury them where they'll never rise again, why does she feel jealous when the bad boy of Hollywood Arts, Ryder Daniels, start showing an interest in Tori? And why does she have an urge to strangle Ryder when Tori starts to show an interest back?

Sorry this one is short. The next one will be a part two to this one, and the one after the final part.

Thank you for reading. See you tomorrow.

Blessed Be.
