Still don't own Victorious. Nope
By lunch the entire school knew about Beck and Jade's breakup. This fact left their entire table virtually swamped by girls. Girls that kept "accidentally" spilling food close to the table, some even on Robbie. "Oops! I'm so sorry" a girl said picking up the items on her tray she'd dropped conveniently next to Beck.
Jade noticed all of this while sitting at her secluded table three rows over. She was busy sending death glares to any loser who tried to talk to her. Leaving Festus's truck with a sandwich in hand, Andre was on his way to their usual table when he was surprised by what he saw.
At the gang's usual table there were groups of girls furiously wiping food off of Robbie, while at the same time apologizing to Beck, though he didn't have a drop of food on him. Across the courtyard he saw Jade sitting alone looking at her salad like she wanted to murder it.
Tori waved over to Andre from her spot next to Robbie for him to come sit. He saw Tori but found his legs carrying him over to Jade's table. Placing his sandwich down he didn't catch the questioning stares from Tori's table, or Beck narrow his eyes at him.
"Sup Jade" Andre said sitting across from her. She glanced up at him through her dark shades slightly surprised but responded "Nothing, just trying not to vomit up my lunch. You?".
"Nothing much". They were silent for a bit, each lightly eating their lunch. Andre noticed how an air of sadness seemed to hang over Jade. She let out deep sighs from time to time and was beginning to sniffle.
"You really okay?" he asked concerned. "I said I'm fine!" she said a little too quickly. He stared at her a few moments before he said "Get up".
"What?" Jade responded surprised. "You heard me woman. Get your toosh up and let's go finish that song you and me started last night."
Jade silently regarded what Andre said recalling how they had set out last night to write a song to make her feel better. "Why not, she thought. It beat watching idiotic sluts throw themselves at her ex.
Jade grabbed her bag and linked elbows with Andre."I'm singing a solo, you just play" she said as they walked away. "Deal, but I'm helping write" he responded. They were too into their conversation to notice their friends' wistful glances as they strolled away.
They sat in the Blackbox Theater on the piano bench, knees touching. After playing around with lyrics for a few minutes, they gave up on getting an actual song done and instead decided to just enjoy each other's company.
"So" Andre said as his fingers rested on piano keys "about last night" he began.
"What about it?" Jade's mood swinging suddenly. "It's just…what am I to you?" he asked. "Huh?" Jade asked confused.
"Tori's not your friend, you only tolerate Robbie, Cat's a pet, what am I to you?" Jade looked at Andre thoughtfully and placed her hand on his cheek. The gesture surprised him.
"You're my friend and someone I care about – a lot" Jade said. "I don't call many people that so you should be honored" she said half joking. Andre didn't know how to respond to Jade's confession. He'd been wondering where they stood, he liked his place in her life.
"Friends" he said "Well friend, can we do more of this" he asked suddenly catching her off guard and pressing his lips to hers. He felt Jade smirk against his lips. She broke their kiss.
"I'm usually only so nice to my friends" Jade said. Andre pressed his mouth to hers again "Can't you make an exception for someone who you care about – a lot" he said against her lips. She smiled at him "Maybe" she said grabbing her bag.
"Though I may need more convincing or an incentive for being so damn nice" she said walking away smiling. Andre grabbed his things and followed after her "Oh I can give you great incentives!" he said chasing behind her laughing.
So I'm thinking of turning this into a Jandre series of one shots, prompts, etc. They're fun to write for! So send me some ideas! And thanks for the reviews and alerts :)
