Chapter 4: The Call
Huntington Beach, Califronia
Andre and Tori, Kitchen 8:30- Night
Tori sat on a stool waiting in the kitchen for Andre, she was checking her phone for messages from her parents or even from Darrius. It was in the shore that she met Darrius for the first time and it was here where she hoped she could cut loose, sure she had her sister here and her other friends; but she needed, she wanted that tender touch from a guy who wasn't either her friend or a crush.
What could she do, she couldn't turn back time and convince Darrius's old man to stay for a bit longer. All she could do now is enjoy her summer here with friends and sister, and maybe their might be a chance for new love to spring up at the beach or boardwalk or wherever. Tori turned her phone off and waited, She heard footsteps coming down the stairs, Andre walked into the kitchen wearing basketball shorts and a blue shirt.
"Hey Tori, I took a shower and I'm hungry so I'm making dinner. Tell me what you want Tori, I'll be more than happy to make it for you"
"So we're just gonna ignore what you and Cat were doing downstairs? Huh Andre, you just want me to….Forget?"
Andre and Tori stared at each other for a bit, Tori stood up from her stool and put Andre in a choke hold.
"Just messing with you buddy, guys and girls do that kind of thing when their in love. And if you're serious about cooking, make me some pasta, check if we have some ground beef, I can make the meatballs."
"Alright Tori…whatever you say"
Tori kept her arms around his neck, giggling and tugging on him. As this went on in the kitchen, Cat came downstairs after collecting herself. Being caught by Tori as she laid on the pool table getting her love hole pounded senseless wasn't something she was ready for, she came downstairs with a hungry stomach and arms that wanted to be wrapped around Andre's muscular physique all night long. When she walked in, she saw Tori's arms wrapped around Andre, he was putting water in a pan and while he did that, Tori played with him by trying to bite his ears.
"Andre?" Cat said in a cute voice.
Tori immediately brought her hands back to her person and moved back some, Andre looked over to her and signaled for her to come over, he placed some oil and salt inside the pot of water, then he raised the flame the dutch oven pot rested on. Cat went over and hid behind Andre, barely showing her face to Tori.
Tori sat on her stool watching them both, As Andre watched the water boil, Cat clamped her hands together which kept Andre close to her.
"What's wrong Cat? Are we not gonna say hello to each other?"
Cat still said nothing to her, "Really Cat? You're gonna make me go over there, if I go over…ok you know what"
Tori sat up and went around the table to go hug her friend, Cat just moved around Andre but Tori kept trying to get to her. Andre was in the middle, stuck and with a dutch oven filled with boiling water.
"Guys stop it! I need to get a box of spaghetti from the closet!"
Andre tried ducking and crawling on the floor, But Cat was right on top of him, Tori jumped on top Cat and hugged her. Cat and Tori rolled together on the kitchen floor screaming and yelling at each other, Andre went to the kitchen closet and pulled out a spaghetti box, he pulled them out and broke them in half and placed them in the boiling water.
"Are you two done saying hello to each other? Or can I join in too?" Andre asked the two girls on the floor.
"Relax Andre, it's not a threesome." Replied Tori, "I don't know what's wrong with Cat, I just wanted to say hello"
"You already did Tori, when you caught me and Andre downstairs" her red headed friend quickly responded.
"What happened downstairs?"
"Stop acting dumb Tori"
"What? All i did was go downstairs and explored the rooms, then I cam back up and came here to the kitchen."
"Andre she's lying"
Tori was tired of acting the nice girl with everyone, especially to Cat. "ok you know what, let's clear the kitchen table, Andre get over here and pretend to do me like you were doing Cat"
"WHAT!?" shouted Cat, "Andre don't do it!" she commanded him.
"Tori I can't do that, Cat's my girlfriend and you're my best friend" he told her in a frantic tone.
"I didn't mean it literally Andre, I just want to show Cat that it was no big deal, c'mon we have our clothes on plus I know you won't get a stiffy from doing this with me"
"How the hell do you know if i won't?" Tori sat up and pulled Andre over to her by his shirt, "Tori don't!" he pleaded.
"Ah! Nooo!" shouted Cat, she got in between her man and Tori, but by doing so landed square between Tori. Tori grabbed Cat's butt and thrusted upwards into her center, Andre stood wide eyed at what he was seeing.
"You see Cat, no…big…deal"
Cat pulled away from Tori and almost fell off the table had Andre not caught her in time, "you see Cat, no big deal, right Andre"
"Well after seeing that…" Andre turned to face the Dutch oven with the spaghetti in it, he also hid the arousal in his shorts with both his hands. Tori smirked and laughed.
"Wow, I guess I dodged a bullet there then."
1hr Later
The kitchen trio sat down at the kitchen table eating spaghetti with meatballs Tori prepared, and spaghetti Andre made. Andre sat in-between Cat and Tori, Tori was very friendly with her best friend lately. Putting her arms around his neck as he stirred the spaghetti, giving his bum light smacks to hurry up. The kind of friendly acts that Cat did not like one bit, for every hug Tori gave Andre, Cat gave him a kiss almost immediately.
Andre knew why Tori was acting like this, when Darrius left California a while back, he was the first person she called to see if he could speak with the father of Darrius. Andre spoke to them and asked them to stay a bit longer, but even when Darrius wanted to stay, Darrius Senior was adamant about moving, Tori and Andre spoke a lot on the phone before coming to the shore house, he could see very well that any wrong move on his part and he would be trapped in a love triangle between Cat and Tori.
He only hoped Tori wouldn't make hugging, holding his hands and smacking his butt a habit around Cat. Tori stared at her meatballs while they were on fork and bit into them, Andre chuckled with food still in his mouth. He looked over at Cat and gave her cheek a kiss, "I'm gonna talk to Tori outside for a bit, Ok Cat, it'll be real quick so don't spazz out."
"Tori can you come outside with me for a moment" he asked her, Tori placed her fork back down on her plate and walked out onto the outside deck.
Andre and Tori, Outside Deck
"Tori I know this is probably where you don't want to be right now, I was actually surprised to see you come at all. I know up there right where the Jacuzzi is where you and my boy Darrius met for the first time, I did everything possible to keep his old man here but that man was fixed on getting out."
"It's ok Andre, I came because if i stayed back home with absolutely no one to hang out with….I might have lost it. I rather be here with you and Cat having moments like that in the kitchen than mope around back home. Do you think Cat's mad at me?"
"Well you were kind of touchy feely with me back in there, she's not slow Tori, ok maybe she is but she's smart in other areas."
"I guess you're right, so Andre….how about a threesome" Andre covered his ears and walked back inside the kitchen.
"I'm kidding Andre, you know I was just kidding An-"
[RIIIINNNNGGGGGG]
Everyone went quiet when the phone began to ring, Andre went over to pick it up.
"Hello" he answered, He listened for a bit to the other person talking to him. He then went to the kitchen to find some pens or pencils in the cabinets, he pulled out a paper towel and wrote some things on it.
"Alright sir, thank you…thank you, I'll make sure everyone knows of the changes. you have a goodnight as well, later."
"Andre who was that?" Cat asked first, "Those were the people who are in charge of this house, you remember how we all had part time jobs last time? Well whoever was working where is now working in the other job."
"what does that mean?"
"What it means Tori is, you remember how you, jade, Trina and Robbie worked over at the Ice Cream Parlor last summer? Well now you four have to work over at the fish market. Now if you're unhappy with that, I took down the number of the owners so you can give them a call and ask about having who you work with changed. they say work begins on the fifth, which is on Friday."
"Well you know what then, I'm giving those guys a call right now." Tori told them both.
(!) "Next update soon"
