Author's Note: Hi there! I'm sorry that I haven't gotten a chance to write in the longest time: school started where I live and I have been SUPER busy. Plus, I want to thank old/new reviewers and new/old readers: because of you guys, I have been nominated for a Topaz award. I couldn't continue to write on without your support! *applause* In addition, I forgot to add this to the 1st chapter of So This Is Goodbye? and Best Days of Our Lives: these stories are dedicated to my friends Dominique, Maria, Olivia, and Jaymee. You girls were always there for me whenever I needed someone: thank you and love you guys :). Alright, enough chatter about me; here's the description.
On the night before Graduation, Cat and the girls prepare for a "graduation" party. Meanwhile, the boys find out and plan to crash the girls' party. I DO NOT OWN VICTORIOUS, DAN SCHNEIDER, OR ANYTHING RELATED! Enjoy :) ! ©
June 9 1:39 p.m. Cafeteria
"Whoo hoo! I can't wait for the party!" Tori cheered as Cat and Jade took their places at the table. It just seemed to be a perfect day at Hollywood Arts: not too hot, not too humid. Just right. Cat removed the plastic covering of her fork and dug into her food.
"Be careful of not stuffing yourself up before your wedding." Jade teased with a smile.
"Well, if I get chubby, you could always add on right?" Cat laughed.
"It'll take forever though to just add onto the dress!" Jade complained.
"Is it me or are you two forgetting the party tonight?" Tori added.
"How can I forget? You two wouldn't stop talking about it for weeks. Plus, isn't it traditional that the bachelorette party is the night before the wedding?" Cat declared.
"Well, how could we? We had to hire a caterer for this party. Plus, this party will totally make it worthwhile. Me and Tori have a big surprise for you tonight." Jade said with a wink.
"Oh God. What did you guys do or make?" Cat sighed nervously.
"You'll have to see for yourself tonight. Ha ha ha." Tori said with a chuckle.
Cat rolled her eyes as she ate her food. She looked up to see Tori and Jade with conspicuous grins on their faces. The fork landed on top of her spaghetti as she laughed at their facial expressions.
"Oh, by the way; here's the dress", Jade exclaimed with a faint smile. She pulled out her Pear-phone and handed it to Cat. Cat touched the screen and went to the camera application to see a ivory-colored ball gown. The gown was covered with hand-sewn crystal embellishments and faux pearls. Cat squealed with glee as she showed Tori the picture.
"Jade, are you sure this wasn't on Pinterest?", Tori joked.
Jade stuck her tongue out at Tori as Cat gave the phone back to her. "I, unlike THOSE people, don't have to post everything that goes on in my life. Nor act as if I'm the greatest thing in the world because I know I'm the greatest thing in the world," Jade said fluffing her hair. Tori's eyes rolled with annoyance as lunch progressed. Cat sat quietly while Tori and Jade argued on invites of this "graduation" party, thinking of Him.
1:45 p.m. Sikowitz's Room
"Well this is great, you know, being stuck in Sikowitz's. I was supposed to see Tori about that new song I just composed." Andre complained. He, Beck, and Robbie were stuck in lunch detention again. This time, it was for a improvisation which had turned the room into shambles. Robbie had trouble picking up some of the desks, but to his relief, Beck carried the desks to different parts of the room. Andre was washing coconut milk off the walls and mumbled to himself.
"If I remember clearly, who's the one that said coconut milk would've been a great prop to use in that stupid improvisation?" Robbie said, turning to Andre. Andre threw up his hands in defense. "Hey, at least I'm not the one that pushed the desks out of proportion" Andre declared, turning to Beck. Beck chuckled to himself, but had two pairs of eyes on him.
"I had to stay in character; what was I supposed to do?" Beck complied. All three of them shook their heads in agreement and went back to work. About a minute later, Sikowitz walked into the room and did a surveillance check. The walls were shining from the wet rags that Andre dipped into the sudsy bucket of warm water. Sikowitz also could tell that the floors were also mopped and waxed.
"Well, I'm quite impressed with you three. Are you guys in a rush?" Sikowitz said with a smile. Robbie dusted himself off and joined Andre and Beck.
"Yeah, we were hoping to get back to lunch, but considering that we only have a few minutes left; we'll stay here" Beck answered.
Sikowitz went to his desk and grabbed his coconut, which was filled to the brim with milk inside it. He then acknowledged the trio to come forward and gave them three small stacks of paper. "Here, these are your graduation papers. Hope the grades satisfy you." Sikowitz said.
Beck picked his up first and looked over his while Robbie and Andre grabbed theirs. He furrowed his brow and read his grade. "Wow, I got an A-. It used to be a C before. Why the sudden change?" Beck asked.
"Considering that you're graduating, it's only fair to do it. After all, all of you worked hard this year. Especially you Robbie." Sikowitz declared. Robbie peered up from his papers and smiled brightly at him. "Besides, you got parties to go to. Speaking of which, aren't you hosting one tonight Robbie?" Sikowitz asked.
"Yeah, but it's going to be small though", Robbie said. A vibration went off on his phone and read a text message from Cat.
"Hey Robbie. I can't make it to your party tonight. I'm sorry :(. I arranged something with Tori and Jade earlier and forgot about it. I love you. ~soontobeShapiro~."
"Well, it appears that Cat, Tori, and Jade will be off the guest list for tonight." Robbie declared. Andre grimaced and Beck could tell that Robbie was disappointed. "We'll have a good time tonight, I promise." Robbie said.
"I'm gonna hit the road boys. See you tomorrow afternoon." Sikowitz said, dismissing the trio. Andre, Beck, and Robbie shuffled out of the room, but before they left, Robbie stopped to hug him. At first, Sikowitz wasn't sure on what to do, but then finished the embrace. Robbie jogged out of the room to join up with the duo. They walked down the hall, but heard soft voices. The trio looked to see if anyone was there, but the hallway was like a ghost town. Beck went to sit against a locker, but heard the voices again. This time, it seemed as if it was coming from Andre's pocket.
"Dude, check your phone. Your butt probably called someone again", Beck commented. Andre pulled out his phone and noticed that it called Tori's phone. Robbie had started to mumble, but Beck shushed him. The voices still continued with a conversation.
"I know for one thing that party will make Cat's night", a voice said. Beck looked up and overheard; the voice was Jade. Robbie and Andre joined Beck on the ground and held the phone in the air to listen in.
"I'm not sure whether or not anyone is going to Robbie's party tonight. Poor kid", said the other voice, which happened to be Tori. Robbie slumped down and took out his own phone. Andre looked to see Robbie rapidly tap at his phone and turned back to his phone. Robbie then scooted over to Beck and whispered, "I just canceled the party."
"Wait, why did you do that?" Andre yelled. He gasped in horror and shut off his phone. Beck face-palmed himself as Andre hit his head against the locker. "God, I'm so stupid!" Andre said.
"No you're not. But I have an idea though to replace the party", Robbie declared. He got onto his feet and began walking slowly down the hallway. Andre and Beck jogged up next to Robbie and waited for an answer. "We're gonna crash their party instead", Robbie announced.
10:45 p.m. Residence of Tori Vega
Loud music had blasted throughout the giant living room. Tori, as usual, was at the piano singing a classic 80s ballad. Jade had gathered a few of the guests to the dining table and began passing out playing cards to each of them. However, Cat sat near a window and looked up to the stars.
"This is happening so quickly. Am I really growing up or am I just not facing reality?" Cat thought to herself. She felt a soft hand on her shoulder and turned to see Jade smiling at her.
"Come with me. You got to talk with people at your party", Jade said. She lead Cat to the sofa at the middle of the room and sat next to her. Tori got off the piano seat and waved her arms up in the air. "Ok everyone. Gather here! It's time for the games!" Tori announced with a grin.
Cat hid her face from showing off her embarrassed face as Tori strutted to the center of the room. Tori dusted herself and grabbed a few boxes from a table. She walked over to a coffee table and set the boxes on it. "Choose one of the boxes Cat", Tori said.
Tori picked up Cat's chin and gave her a carefree smile. Cat looked at each of the boxes, noticing that none of them were labeled. She chose a box from the left edge of the table. Cat opened it up and pulled out a blindfold. "What am I supposed to do with this?" Cat asked.
"I'm gonna blind fold you. The purpose of this game is to find a particular person who has a present for you. To warn you, each present happens to be a gag gift. Enjoy girlie", Tori explained. She went behind Cat and tied the cloth over Cat's eyes. Tori then guided Cat to the center of the room and let her go. Cat began to drift off and patted almost everything she touched or bumped into. Laughter filled the room as Cat blindly walked around. She eventually bumped into a guest and the blind fold was taken off. The guest smiled at her and gave her a small gift box, which was wrapped up by newspaper comics. Cat grinned at her and opened up the box. Her face turned the same color of her hair as she took the present out of the box. It became quite noisy with the shrieks of laughter that came from her guests. Cat put away the embarrassing gift and was "blinded" again. However, Cat, Tori, Jade, and the guests didn't even realize that Robbie, Andre, and Beck had snuck into the house. The game had finally finished around quarter to midnight. The girls cheered as Cat finally pulled out a play microphone from a rather large box. Cat bowed to her guests in response.
"So this is what goes on at a girl's party?" Beck called out. Dozens of girls' eyes were set on the male trio and Cat gasped out of shock. Robbie awkwardly waved to Cat and immediately blushed. Jade jumped out of her seat and pulled Beck, Andre, and Robbie ,by their ears, to the corner of the room.
"Dudes, what the heck?! This is Cat's bachelorette party. You three weren't even supposed to be here tonight!" Jade whispered angrily. She could see the guilt come from Beck's face as she turned to each of them. Andre shrugged and said "Well, I can't control what I hear from my phone." Jade gave Andre a bad look and went back to the couch. Beck sighed as he went over to the couch and pulled Jade out of the living room. Andre put on a plastered grin, headed off to the piano, and acknowledged Tori to sing. As Tori sang, Robbie went over to the couch and sat next to Cat.
"Cat, I'm sorry about that. It was my idea since we accidentally heard you girls talking about tonight. Plus, I felt bad about having a party since I knew that no one wanted to go-" Robbie confessed, but was interrupted by a kiss from Cat. The kiss was warm, pure, and dreamy. Cat pulled back and hugged Robbie tightly.
"I don't care about that. I'm just glad I'm with you at the moment", Cat said. She rested her head on his shoulder while Robbie held her in his arms, knowing that in a week and seven days, she'd become Caterina Valentine Shapiro.
