So this story is going to be told in Jade's point of view. Shout out to the readers that know the song. I am a huge Mayday Parade fan myself, and I can't wait until I save up enough to buy the Monsters in The Closet CD. Also Cat is not Adrian's other mom, nor is she in a relationship with Jade. They just live together because...well, Cat's Cat. Just in case there was any confusion.
I was studying the arts, I had always wanted to be an actress. I walked into my Performing Arts class; books in my messenger bag and coffee in hand, and sat down in the very front next to a Latina with rectangular glasses. She smiled brightly at me as I set my bag down on the floor right next to my chair and my coffee on the small desk. I simply smirked and nodded in acknowledgement. Once the teacher started the lesson, I listened intently. I was in the middle of taking notes when I felt a tap on my shoulder. Annoyed at being interrupted, I looked up with a scowl.
"Do you mind if I borrow a pencil?" The Latina asked. If she hadn't looked at me with those pleading brown eyes I would have just ignored her. I smiled politely and handed her my pencil, before digging in my bag and getting another one for myself. She smiled.
"Thank you. I'm Tori by the way." Tori said setting the pencil down on her empty notebook and reaching over to shake my hand.
"Jade." I said then shook her hand firmly. She shot me one last smile, pushed her glasses up her nose, then started the notes. I didn't immediately get back to work after that. I snuck glances at her. I began to examine her. I noticed the way her chestnut brown hair would cascade down her shoulders. I noticed that she would bite her lip when she would try to jot the notes down quickly. I also noticed how she would look at me occasionally; sending me a smile that made my heart beat speed up. Over the course of two weeks in that same class I would stare at her. It seemed that her smile only ever occupied my mind. One sunny Tuesday in November, she looked up and met my eyes; a bright smile on her lips.
She leaned over a little. I stole a quick glance at her exposed cleavage.
"I couldn't help but notice that you've been staring at me." She whispered. She wasn't rude about it, that was never Tori's style. No, she was very polite. But her politeness didn't stop the blush that crept on to my cheeks. I didn't answer her, my eyes hesitantly looked up at hers before dropping back down to absently stare at my desk. She giggled quietly at my reaction.
"Would you like to have coffee with me Friday, Jade? I'd like to get to know you." She whispered. My embarrassment washed away as soon as those words left her lips. A happy grin spread across my face, reaching my eyes.
"Yeah." I replied. Her smile widened and her eyes twinkled, this was the first day my life officially began.
