AN: I am soooo sorry for not updating sooner. Some really bad stuff happened, I lost a friend in a car accident and I went to a very bad place in my life which I am still not completely out of but decided to use writing to help me get out of the situation. (not this story but I didn't think it was fair to not update on this story.) I hope you guys can forgive the lack of updates and I will try to update quicker from now on.
Chapter 4
"Tori! Where are you at?" Andre hollers as he enters Tori's flat.
"In my room. Come here and help me!" Andre is confused by this but makes his way to her room none the less. As he enters her room he dodges numerous articles of clothing only to be hit in the head with a tank top still on it's hanger.
"Damn girl what is up with Hurricane Tori here? Seriously it looks like you were just robbed by Trina again." Andre said, picking up a random piece of cloth not even sure of what it was.
"Shut up Dre! And put that down!" Tori screams as she takes the cloth away from him.
He chuckles and asks"What is it?"
"You really don't want to know."
"Oh." He was confused at first until it hit him on why he didn't want to know. "Oh! Oh my God! I touched that! Eww Jesus Tori why is it just lying around like that!"
"Oh stop being a baby. And it wasn't until I started freaking out. I don't know what to wear for my date."
"One, Tor you are like my sister I dont need to know what you use during your, umm, private time. Two, your date isn't until tomorrow why are you freaking out so bad?"Andre says putting a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"Because Dre I fucked up. I asked her out four days ago and I have nothing planned for this date. I thought 'hey, I will just take her out to eat and show her a nice time in the city. Maybe tour the club scene.' Then it hit me, Jade isn't like that. Did you see her? Hell she made me actually work for her. I don't serenade girls, I had to sing to her just to learn her name and even then I am pretty sure she did it better than I did." Tori rambled.
Andre didn't know what to do. Just like he didn't know he was staring at her in shock until she sighed and stomped back into her walk in closet. "Look, I am sorry Tor but, Jesus, you didn't plan anything at all? Do you even know what she might enjoy?"
"I know she likes going to plays. She likes video games and she would rather chill and hangout rather than deal with a lot of people right now. But she isn't all about money or attention. Like I could take her for hot dogs and a day at the arcade and she would be happy if there wasn't so many people there." Andre perks up at the mention of the last subject.
"Tori my cousin owns an arcade. Why don't we reserve the arcade for a day and take her there to hangout. Maybe hire a chef to cook when you are both hungry." Andre proposed.
"Andre I suck at games. Seriously I was beat last week playing go fish with my little cousin." Tori explained.
"Well that isn't too bad.."
"She is five Andre!"
"Okay well why don't we go there tonight and play some games so you don't look like a complete noob?"
"Well it is the best idea so far. Maybe it will work out well." Tori said biting her bottom lip.
Andre was able to contact his cousin and reserve the arcade for the next day as well as get the keys so they could stay after the arcade had closed. Andre tried telling her which games would be good to play during the date and which ones would be good just to try and impress Jade. Tori accepted his help but knew in the end she would probably do what ever Jade suggested.
She got some practice in on a few games ranging from "Area 51" to "DDR" throwing in some old school games like ski ball and whack a mole. With each game Andre looked on in shock. He just could not fathom someone being bad at every type of arcade game, but here it was in front of him. There was nobody there to watch but he still felt embarrassed for her when she fell trying to keep up with DDR. It became so bad he started to question his own idea but didn't have the heart to say anything when he realized that Tori was still having fun.
He had decided that if Jade couldn't handle Tori at her worst maybe it was better to find out before they got too attached.
Early the next morning Jade awoke to her phone going off, notifying her of a new message. She looked at the screen to see a message from Tori telling her to just dress comfortably for their date. She was thankful for the message since she honestly had no idea what they were doing today. She sent a reply back.
Jade: Okay, What time should I be ready for you to pick me up?
Tori: around five this evening sounds good. And who says I am picking you up? o.O
Jade could tell she was joking and decided to play along.
Jade: You asked me out. That means you are the "dude" for this date and it is your job to ensure my safety and transport to the location of the date.
Tori: Wow. Had to go all law school college student on me didn't you.
Jade: One of the perks to having a top notch lawyer father who you don't get along with at all. He taught me how to argue my point at a young age. You better get used to it.
Tori: I don't think that will be a problem as long as you get used to the fact that your fiery side is extremely hot.
Jade: Oh sweetheart, I have dealt with this fact my entire life. It is you who will have to get used to it. Speaking of me being hot I need to go get ready. Your text just woke me up.
Tori: You just woke up?! Jade it is one in the afternoon.
Jade: yes, and if it wasn't for you I wouldn't have been awake until the time of our date. So unless I am going on this date in basketball shorts and a tank top I need to stop texting you back.
Tori: Alright, alright. By the way you could come nude and I wouldn't mind ;{P
Jade could feel a blush heat her face as she read the last text. "Oh man tonight should be fun." She smirked as she walked to her closet looking for something tempting enough to give the Latina a small heart attack tonight.
