HELLO PEOPLE THAT ARE READING MY STORY.

First off, Thank you for READING MY STORY.

Really. It's awfully nice of you to be taking time out of your day to be READING MY STORY.

NOW YOU WILL DISCOVER WHY THE TITLE OF THE STORY IS WHAT IT IS!

JOY!

Please Review :)

(I don't own Victorious, or Advil. Or Swiss Army Knife. Or multicoloured goldfishies.)

Tori's POV

I shut the water off and stepped out of the shower. I quickly turned off the fan and grabbed my towel, shivering from the cold air.

I pulled on my clothing and then brushed my hair. As I got ready, I sang softly to myself.

Are you listening? Hear me talk, hear me sing. Open up the door, is it less? is it more? when you tell me to beware, are you here? are you there? Is there something I should know? Easy come, easy go...

My singing was interrupted by a different, more upbeat song, coming from in the drawer.

I grabbed my phone,

(PearPhone 4. The parents love me.)

And pressed the green button meaning I was accepting the call.

"Hello?" I said, kicking myself for not checking the caller I.D. before picking up.

"Hey, Tori." Greeted the warm (male!) voice.

"Beck?" I asked, hoping it was him.

"That's me."

"Oh. Hey."

I mentally kicked myself. Oh Hey? OH HEY? GAHH..

"So listen.." his voice pulled me out of my mind.

"We're all still meeting at 6:30 right?"

"Of course."

"And you called Andre and Robbie?"

"Andre is coming for the entire time, and Robbie is coming for a couple hours at least. The good news is we managed to convince him to leave Rex at home, but the deal was he could leave whenever he wanted, without being teased."

"Okay. Well.. Since Cat and Jade are driving together.. And we live so close to each other, and so close to the asylum... Wanna walk together?"

I responded without skipping a beat.

"I'd love to."

"Awesome. I'll see you at 6:00, then. Okay?"

"Yep. See you then!"

"Alright. Bye, Tori."

I hung up.

I bit my lip, and wondered just how badly I was going to pay for walking with Jade's boyfriend.

Oh well.

I glanced down at my phone, and saw I had 15 minutes.

GAH!

I shoved my phone into my pocket, opened the door and rushed out of the bathroom, through the kitchen, up the stairs, and into my room.

We were to be split into pairs, and two people would share a backpack, but everyone had to bring supplies. Since there were to be six of us, (For a while anyways. Depends on how long Robbie stays for.) three boys and three girls, all the girls would bring backpacks.

I walked into my closet, jumped, and grabbed the purple shoebox on the top shelf. I walked over to my bed and removed the lid. I dumped the contents on the bed and grabbed everything I would need.

Three super bright mini flashlights, Four packs of batteries, Two packages of gum. Hair ties, Scissors, Two plastic bags, (You never know.) Advil, Bandaids, Antiseptic wipes, and a Swiss Army Knife.

FUN FACT: Two years ago I, Tori Vega, went to a "spy" camp for three weeks during the summer, and at the and of the three weeks, I was presented a real Swiss Army Knife, which basically said I had completed the course. Pretty neat, huh?

I threw all of the stuff into the bag, and ran from my room. I raced down the stairs taking two at a time, and ran to the fridge.

"Six of us.. Three.. Four.. Five water bottles.. Six." I mumbled.

I mentally hit myself when I heard her speak.

"Where are you going?" sniffled my sister Trina.

I tried to think of what to say, but she stopped me.

"I'm not gonna go tell mom and dad. Just tell me where your going, and I won't tell them that you abandoned me."

"Abandoned you, Trina?" I said. "How old are you? I didn't ABANDON you, I'm pretty sure you.."

"That's not the point! Where are you going?"

"Why do you care?"

"I just wanna know in case.. something happens?"

"Fine. I'm going to the old mental asylum. And you suck at lying."

"The asylum? Why? It's so.. Creepy! I would never go in there. Never ever ever! Why would you go THERE?"

Just then the doorbell rang. I grabbed the multi-coloured goldfish box off of the counter, and shoved it in my bag, along with the chocolate chip granola bars.

I ran to the door, and opened it.

"Hey." I said, trying to pretend I had been just chilling before he arrived.

Not rushing or anything..

"Hey." He greeted warmly. "Ready to go?"

"Yep. Just lemme get my sneakers on."

I pulled on my black and blue DCs, grabbed my sweater, and tied it around my waist.

He held up a plastic bag, full of supplies.

"Mind if I put this in your bag? I'll carry it..."

"Sure." I went to take the bag from his hands, but he took mine instead.

"I'm serious. I'm carrying the bag."

I laughed and handed him the bag, and I stepped outside.

"Bye Trina!" I called over my shoulder, and then I shut the door.

About a minute into the walk, Beck and I were talking, when I received a text from Trina.

So that's why...;)

"Ugh. My sister, the pain..."

Beck laughed. "Go ahead and reply. I really don't mind."

I smiled.

Is not! DX

She quickly replied.

Sure, Tori. Sure.

I rolled my eyes and shoved my phone back into my pocket.

"Sorry about that." I said.

"No problem. But what am I the reason for?"

"What?" I asked, legitimately puzzled.

"She said 'So that's the reason why'."

"How did you see that!"

"I'm Jade's boyfriend. I have to be sneaky. Well, for now. I know what she's planning... With Jared."

"Beck, Why.."

He cut me off.

"So about that whole "that's why" thing..."

I punched him in the shoulder and we both laughed when he pretended to be hurt.

"I thought you cared about me!" he fake sobbed.

We turned the corner and our laughter died down. I bit my lip.

"It's really big.." he said.

"And creepy.." I said.

Because, right there in front of us, was our destination.

And at the same time, we both read the sign out loud.

"Welcome to Amberglows."
