A/N Okay so this chapter is part background, part filler, part bonding. I didn't plan it that way it just happened. I was up at 1am couldn't go to sleep so I worked on this and went to bed at like 3 I think it was. Anyway onto the story!

Chapter 2

A month had passed since the accident and at first Jade had been suspected of causing it. However with no evidence against her the police quickly dropped her as a suspect and eventually it was ruled as an accident.

The school was rebuilding the theater and it would take a few months before it was completed. Apparently they were spending extra money for more secure railings.

Jade didn't find out until a week after the accident that Sikowitz was among the people that died in the accident. Sinjin was seriously injured when the catwalk fell, but he's recovering.

Jade skipped school quite frequently now and today was on of those days. She couldn't take the staring anymore. People looked at her like she was a freak and normally it wouldn't bother her, but she was freaking herself out. Tori and Cat tried to get the theater off her mind, however nothing seemed to help.
Her parents wanted to send her off to a shrink but Tori managed to talk them out of it. Tori had been more concerned lately and hardly let Jade out of her sight.

There was a knock at Jade's bedroom door. Before she could tell the person to go away Tori walked in, "Why'd you skip?"

"Couldn't take the look," Jade shook her head and leaned against her headboard.

Tori shut the door and sat on the bed next to her, "Cat's worried you know."
"I know. She texted me two hours ago. Shouldn't you be at school?" Jade questioned.

Tori grinned, "Snuck out of the Asphalt Cafe."

"I'm a bad influence on you." Jade chuckled.

"That you are." Tori grinned, then her face got serious and she touched Jade's hand, "Are you okay though? Seriously."
Jade sighed, "Whenever I leave the house I either get blamed for the accident or someone looks at me like I'm crazy. I don't care what they think but I can't take the stares. I've seen Robbie and Andre giving me those looks when they thought I wasn't looking. I think I am crazy."
"Hey! You are not crazy okay? And you were cleared of having anything to do with it." Tori rubbed her friends hand, sending goosebumps up the Goth's arm.

"But V, that feeling I had that day...I can still feel it. It's like this dark force that doesn't have good intentions."

Tori pulled the girl into a hug, "We're seniors and we're almost eighteen. As soon as we graduate we'll take a long vacation, a year off from school, and do anything you want."
"Seriously?"
"Seriously."

The next few hours were filled with talking and the girls singing to random songs. Jade went on The Slap, checking her friends updates, and when she went to Sherry's page her laptop messed up. The color of the screen blinked and when it fixed itself Sherry's picture had a orange-yellow tint to it. It gave Jade a bad feeling but she pushed it to the side.

Before Jade realized the time Cat walked into her bedroom holding two fast food bags. She gave Tori and Jade each burgers and fries before joining them on Jade's bed. Tori stopped eating to go to look at her reflection in Jade's mirror. From where Jade was sitting she could see the tree outside her window. Whenever Tori was having a rough night she would use the tree to sneak into Jade's room.

Jade couldn't help but eye Tori up and down as the Latina put her hair into a ponytail. Jade didn't see Cat watching her with a small smile. Tori sat back down and Jade avoided looking at her. She saw Cat grinning and gave her a "what?" look to which Cat shook her head.

Tori broke the silence, "Can I ask you guys something?"
"Well, we're not guys, but sure." Jade smirked as Tori slapped her arm.

"I'm serious!"
Cat smiled, "What is it, Tor?"
"Robbie asked me out today before I left school."
Jade froze in mid bite and stared at her. Please tell me she said no she thought.

"And what'd you say?" Cat urged her to go on.

"I told him I'd think about it. He just seemed...I don't know. More confident in himself. He didn't even have Rex."
"Do you like him?" Cat asked.

"I don't know. I've never liked him before." Tori said.

Cat saw the jealous look in Jade's eyes then quickly said, "I think you should say no."

Jade finally swallowed the burger in her mouth and stared wide eyed at Cat along with Tori, who asked, "Really?"
Cat nodded, "Yeah. Someone else likes you too and I think you'd be better with them and not Robbie." Cat gave Jade a quick wink. Jade bit into her tongue to kill the gasp. "But I can't tell you who it is."

Tori looked at her best friend, "Jade?"

"I agree with Cat." Jade said, doing her best to keep her voice neutral.

"Well who is this mystery person?" Tori asked, raising her brow curiously.

Cat saw Jade hesitate and said, "We promised not to tell."
Tori sighed, "Okay. But Jade I did have something important to tell you."
"Important? What is it?"

"Okay, this is going to sound weird but the other day I went online looking for an explanation for your premonition. I found three other instances of that happening; a collapsing bridge, an exploding air plane, a major pile up. Each time someone saw the accident they saved people from dying." Tori licked her lips nervously before continuing. "The weirdest thing is after the accidents the survivors started dying in freak accidents. Every single person died."
Cat was glancing from Jade to Tori, obviously freaked out. Jade, however, scoffed, "So, are you saying we're going to die!"
"No! I mean I don't know. That bad feeling you have? Well, I have one too. Something's going to happen Jade and you know it."

"I don't want to die!" Cat cried, a whimper escaping her throat.
Jade pulled the redhead into a half hug, similar to the ones she used to give her, "Hey, it's okay. We wouldn't let anything happen to you. It's not going to happen here."
Cat smiled a little, but she wasn't completely convinced. Tori noticed her friends discomfort and decided to change the subject and talk to Jade about it when they were alone. "So, Jade, you've seemed to let Cat back into the best friend category quickly. I expected you to take awhile just to be comfortable with a simple touch."

Jade leaned over and swiped one of Tori's french fries, her own having pulled a disappearing act, "Well, in my vision Cat saved me by pushing me away from the falling backboard. She wouldn't have done that if she didn't truly care."
"I do care. I think of you as my sister Jade." Cat said. "One time my brother tried convincing me that I was adopted and that I was actually your sister. He said I could go live with you and he could have my room."
"Why would he want you room?" Jade asked her.

"He said he was going to use it to pretend he was camping outside."
Tori exchanged a look with Jade before they started laughing. Jade looked into the mirror and saw the tree outside on fire. She jumped up and ran to the window to see that there was no fire at all. "What the hell?"
Tori asked concerned, "Jade, you okay?"
Jade turned to her, confused, "I saw the tree and it was on fire, but now it's not."
"It was a trick of your imagination. Come on let's finish eating and we'll go to the mall and clear our minds."
"But Tori-" Jade started to protest, but Tori cut her off.
"Don't let anyone else ruin your fun okay? Ignore them all."
"Jade nodded, "Okay. I'll try, but if it's too much I'm coming home."
"Deal."
