I'd like to start off by saying thank you for the reviews! They mean soooo much to me that I refresh my email just to see if I have any new ones.
So, how are you guys liking this updating every day thing? I think since I'm kind enough to give you guys an update daily, I should get reviews in return. :D too much to ask? I think not. Anyway, yeah, don't get used to it. I'm just saying out of honesty, this probably won't last. I'll try my hardest not to go longer than a week without updating. But hey, you never know, maybe the daily updates will keep coming. :P
Anyway, prepare for some interesting stuff in this chapter. I've had this idea since the story idea first came to my mind, I just had to build up to it. I hope you guys like it. Let me know what you think. :D enjoy
"Hollywood Arts, huh?" the man behind the counter says. Before our little adventure of the Big Apple, Jade and I decided to stop and get some coffee at a small cafe. You know how Jade is, she's always gotta have coffee.
"Well, you definitely look like actress material. I mean, wow! Look at those cheekbones." suddenly, at his words, a memory of the night I had forgotten rushes into my mind.
-Flashback-
"Nuh uh! You're totally prettier than I am!" Jade protested, suddenly pulling herself out of her slump, getting up onto her knees and leaning forward to place her hands on my cheeks.
"I mean...look at these cheekbones..." Jade says in a soft voice. She removes her hands from my cheeks, and leans in to place a soft, chaste kiss, on my left cheekbone, then another on my right. When her lips meet my face, my breath catches in my throat and suddenly I can't breath. She pulls away and remains only inches from my face. Her eyes look from my eyes to my lips. We watch each other in silence for what seems like forever, until finally, Jade leans in, and I follow. Our lips crash against each other roughly, and next thing I know my arms are around her neck, hers are around my waste, and we're caught up in a heated kiss so passionate that it would seem our lives depend on it.
-end of flashback-
Oh my God! I don't even know what to say. I guess that answers one of my questions. I now know who initiated it. And... Oh...my...GOD! realization suddenly hits me. Jade started it! No wonder she's acting all weird and doesn't want to talk about it. Somehow, I'm incredibly flattered rather than freaked out. I don't know why, and I don't stop to analyze it.
A large smile spreads across my face, and I look over at Jade with an expression that says, "I know what you did". In return, Jade raises an eyebrow in curiosity.
"What?" she says in what I assume is annoyance, "what's got you so happy Vega?"
I can't hold in my excitement and maybe a bit of pride. I mean come on! Shouldn't I be proud? The girl who supposedly hates me got me drunk and made a move on me, and now is my perfect chance to rub it in her face.
"Oh, nothing," I say with a smirk, "I just remembered something from Monday night, that's all."
At hearing this, Jade's eyes pop open wide as if she's a deer caught in headlights. Her jaw drops, and her mouth starts moving as if she's trying to say something, but it won't come out. She stammers before speaking, and suddenly, a stern expression takes over her face.
"Shut up Vega!" she says in a harsh, venomous tone, "I told you not to talk about it!"
With that, she rips her coffee out of the man's hand, roughly slams her money down, and storms out of the small cafe. Me and the man give each other a confused look, I utter a brief apology, and rush out after her.
When I reach the sidewalk, I spot jade walking away, and run after her.
"Jade, wait up!" I holler out in desperation. She can't just avoid this. Obviously she's hiding something, and I'm determined to find out what.
"Just leave me alone Vega," Jade says in a surprisingly calm voice when I finally catch up to her.
"No, we have to talk about this!" I grab her arm and spin her around so she'll listen to me.
"DON'T touch me," she says threateningly with a harsh glare. I put my hands up in surrender, and take a step back.
"Look, Jade, I just want to know what all happened that night."
Jade's facial expression changes to what looks like hurt. Suddenly I feel compassion for her, so I reach my arm out and place it comfortingly on her shoulder despite her threat. She immediately pulls away.
"Look Vega, some things are better off forgotten. We fucked, end of story, that's it, nothing else, get over it," she says simply with a shrug.
Somehow, I don't believe her. Call it a hunch. Something inside of me keeps telling me there was more to it. And that something is also telling me not to give up.
"No, I won't get over it. I'm going to find out what happened, with or without you. With would make it a whole lot easier on me," I say with pleading eyes.
"Why can't you just let this go?"
There's that look again. What is it? Hurt? Desperation? Fear? Jade isn't the type of person I'd expect to possess such emotions, but the expression on her face says differently.
"Because Jade, I know there's something more you're not telling me. I know you initiated the kiss, and now you're acting all weird and won't talk about it. Of course I'm going to be suspicious."
Yep, that look is definitely fear, not only fear, but panic. She's hiding something. It's so obvious. Now that she knows I'm starting to remember details from that night, she's starting to freak out. What else am I supposed to think? There's got to be something she's hiding.
Suddenly, her expression changes back to her usual, cruel glare.
"Get over yourself Vega."
With that, she walks away.
"Jade!"
"Jade!"
No response. Is she seriously just ditching me? I don't even know where the fuck I am.
"Jade!"
She rounds the corner at the end of the sidewalk, and is now out of my sight. I let out a frustrated sigh. See, this is what I'm talking about. And she wonders why I don't believe her. Any time I bring it up she gets all defensive and weird.
I push my hair back out of my face, and let out a frustrated sigh. I guess I'd better find my way back to the hotel.
It's been an hour, Jade still isn't back. I've just been sitting and thinking. Suddenly, I feel the urge to be productive. I might as well do something with my time since Jade decided to ditch me, once again.
I walk over to my suitcase to find my laptop to work on a script I've been writing. When I open my suitcase, I see the clothes from that night. I grab the shirt I whore and let out a sigh.
Suddenly, random brief memories start flooding my mind.
-Flashback-
Our lips meet again in small desperate pecks as Jade pulls up at the hem of my shirt. I take the hint and rip the offending clothing article off. Jade's eyes darken as she looks down at my chest, I take the hint, unhook my bra, and let it drop to lie by my shirt on the floor.
...
I let out a surprised moan as a hand that isn't mine snakes it's way down to my center and begins rubbing. I raise my hips up against her hand, wanting more of her knowing touch.
...
"Fuck, Jaaddeee!" I scream out. She starts moving her finger faster.
...
"Come for me baby." With that I let out a loud moan, and reach my climax. Jade crawls off of me, and I lie here, trying to catch my breath again.
"Wow," I manage to get out between my breaths, "your turn," I say with a seductive smirk on my face as I roll on top of Jade.
-End of Flashback-
I drop the shirt, and my eyes pop open wide in shock. This is too much to handle. No wonder Jade is so freaked out. What else happened though? I mean, that couldn't have been it. I don't remember going to sleep, or anything after I told Jade it was her turn. Oh my God! Maybe it was something I did to her that has her so freaked out. Fuck! What did I do? If only I could remember.
Then it hits me. Seeing and touching the shirt I wore that night brought back those memories. Maybe if I touch something else from that night, it'll come back to me.
I walk over to Jades bed and lie there for several minutes. Still nothing. Then, the door opens, and Jade walks in. When she sees me on her bed, her expression changes into rage. Then it hits me. Why didn't I think of it sooner. I get up out of her bed, and rush towards her.
"What the fuck are you doing on my.."
Before she can finish, I crash my lips against hers, throw my hands around her neck, pull her body against mine, and force a heated, passionate kiss on her. Just as I'd thought, images flood my mind.
-Flashback-
I'm on top of Jade, straddling her. I rock my hips and grind down on Jade. She let's out a loud moan in response and grinds along with me.
...
"Tori! Yes!" I lean down and capture her lips to suppress her loud screams.
...
We continue grinding against each other, harder each time. Then finally, we scream out in ecstasy, our rhythm slows, then I collapse on the bed next to her.
"That was.."
"Amazing," I say finishing her sentence. I roll over onto my side, and immediately, I feel the bed shift, and Jade's body pressed against my back. Her arm snakes it's way around me. An eruption of butterflies fills my stomach at her touch. I lace our fingers together, and start to fall asleep with a smile on my face. Right before I completely fall into a deep slumber, I hear a soft, barely audible whisper.
"I love you Tori."
-End of flashback-
Jade shoves me off of her, and looks at me with a look I can only call confusion. I'm sure my expression matches hers. Scratch that, I'm sure I'm much more shocked than her at the moment.
"What the fuck Vega!"
I don't reply. I don't move. Hell, I can't even breathe right now. I can't even think about anything but the words that keep playing through my head.
I love you Tori
