Hello again.
Here is chapter three for you, and it is longer than the others I believe.
Disclaimer: I don't own Victorious.
Time passed rather quickly after Easter. It had jumped from Easter Sunday to a week later. And it is all still so confusing. I swear I need to scheme up something to fix everything. Somehow this incident had torn our normal group up. The only person that I have actually liked talking to lately has been Andre. And he was probably one of the three(including me and Jade) who knew what actually happened out there on Easter.
We, me and Jade had almost shared a second, not so rushed, kiss that was lead by her. but before our lips could make contact Andre and Beck showed up. As soon as they said our names we sprung apart and glanced away. Beck seemed upset and disappointed. Upset when he looked to me, and disappointed when he looked to Jade. Andre on the other hand just did what he normally did; he avoided the conflict that was going to go down soon, but pulled me along. So our two small groups just pulled their own way from there.
Now, at school, Beck and Jade have been totally avoiding us, well…me. They hadn't sat at our lunch table in the whole week. And I guess my attitude had slowly started to get worse from then. Because a few times Cat had begun asking questions about what happened with us for them to avoid us and I would get a bit snippy with her and she would run off crying. And, of course, Robbie would say something then go chasing after her, Rex making some smart remark about it all. This was all becoming routine, and I absolutely hated it. Jade I could understand, but this was unlike Beck to hold a grudge so long or at all for the matter.
And today was no better. We already were at lunch and Cat and Robbie weren't coming it seemed. So that just left me and Andre, and I don't mind that really because he has become my best friend at Hollywood Arts or well…. Just my best friend period. And he is forcing me to eat, shoving a tray with a burrito in front of me.
"I know its botherin ya Tori, but you need to eat."he chuckled with a kind smile as he ate some of the food he had gotten for himself.
"yea…thanks" I barely mutter eating some of the food, with a sigh.
My eyes wander and Andre is talking to me but the words pass right by me because I set my eyes on Jade and Beck sitting a few tables down. They are them, staying close.
"you listening?" Andre asked waving his hands infront of my face and I nod.
"yeah, sorry spaced out." I muttered lowly.
And soon he is back to talking, something about an upcoming play he is doing the music for. But my attention goes back to the couple that seems to hate my guts.
And this urge in my gut pushes me. I dislike it but I move unwillingly. I stand, eyes falling as I start to walk away. It is unlike me but I feel a prickling feeling come over my eyes as I push away from Andre's hand as he stops me and go to the only place at this school I can get comfort and privacy at, the janitor's closet. And before I can get there tears start to roll down my cheeks, I barely noticed. And, soon, I find myself locked in the janitor's closet.
To my surprise, the first person that found me was one of the people I wanted to talk to more, but didn't want to see either. Beck is leaning in the door way, eyes filled with concern and a caring smile on his face. I swear he should be yelling or be mad at me. But he isn't.
"Whatcha doin?" he asked in a light tone, caring.
Quickly I wipe my eyes and sigh a bit looking up at him, then back down to my legs that are crumpled under me.
"Feelin bad.." I mutter looking up at the kid. He shook his head.
"Tori, it really is fine. You worry too much."
"Then why have you been avoiding me?"
"Because I have needed some room to think" he muttered with a soft smile.
"Oh," is all I can seem to manage. I contort my face into one of deep thought, trying to pull what he meant out of what he said.
"come on, Come back and eat with Andre and me."he offered pulling me up without me agreeing.
After the long day at school I was glad to get home and actually get some peace and quiet. My parents are out working late today so they won't be home until late. And, Trina is out with some guy, I think he works for a record label or something.
So I sat at home, just sitting on the couch with music playing in the back ground. It was nice and relaxing. I even started to browse . Looking at all the weird videos and post people put on there. Carefully avoiding anything posted by Jade, Cat and Robbie. Beck, not so much. Knowing he wasn't mad at me or anything really helped out with all the tension this had caused. But, he never told me what he was thinking about or how Jade was feeling. Which all made me a bit more nervous, if he didn't tell me. Maybe it was bad. But then again, maybe I was letting it all be blown out of proportion. And, MY mind kept streaming over the past week of events and sighed. I had kissed Jade on Easter and betrayed the trust of Beck. Saved by Andre who pulled me away from the park before things got too hectic. I made Cat cry on several occasions until she won't even talk to me anymore. But my thoughts had been cut short by a light tapping that was nearly inaudible over the music, like whoever was knocking at the door wasn't sure if they wanted their presence to be known.
Getting up off the couch I trudge my way to the door. Once there I open the door, and huff out a sigh before I even look to see who it is.
"What?" I asked to whoever might be standing in front of me.
I look to them and it is Jade. I can feel my heart drop as I saw her. She didn't look so good. Her hair was a bit messy, her eyelids a bit puffy. And it just looked like she was about to explode into tears.
"sorry, Jade….come in." I murmur pulling her in and closing the door behind her. "What is wrong?" I ask her weakly.
She sits on the couch, her head down so her hair hides her face.
"I am single again…. He broke up with me." Her voice was broken and confused. She was overwhelmingly sad, but there was also some happy part in there too.
"Why did he do that?" I ask contorting my face.
She mumbled something I didn't quiet hear but I did hear the rib racking sob she let out. So I did all I could, I scooted closer and rubbed her back trying to comfort her.
Okay so I know this chapter seemed to rush the time and it was in Tori's point of view so it made it a bit strange. This story is horribly hard for me to write. I am working on a comic and learning to play piano, along with helping out around the house. So it will be hard for me to find time.
Okay, if anyone is reading in hope of finding a smut chapter or anything like that. You are out of luck. I won't conform to the Jori story smut. And I have noticed most of the stories are smut filled.
Later on I will start building up the relationships of everyone again. I know I kind of purposely pushed Cat, Robbie, Beck, and Jade away. The next chapter will be centric of Jade, but still Tor's POV.
Thank you to all of you who have been supportive! All the reviews and Story or Author Alerts have really made me happy. Thank you!
