This is the 6th chpater; this is the longest chapter I've ever written, and for a very good reason. I would like to thank everyone who had read and reviewed my story so far. I would also like to apologize for the last chapter because I know that it was kind of depressing. But anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter.
*Disclaimer: I don't own Victorious*
After that day when I found out that Cat had a boyfriend, and that we kissed after she got back from a date with said boyfriend I didn't go back to school the rest of the week. It was now Saturday afternoon, and I was in my living room, just sitting on my couch watching TV, but there was nothing good was showing. So I turned off the TV and pulled out my phone, and then I just started to go through the pictures on it. The first couple of pictures were of my friends at school goofing around which made me smile, but then I came across something that I totally forgot about. I was staring at a picture I had taken the day Cat and I went to Disneyland. Cat was posing with Mickey Mouse, and she was smiling from ear to ear.
I smiled at the picture and the memory it brought up, and then I began to go over every picture I took that day all the while I had a huge smile on my face. Many of them were of Cat posing with every character we could find, and then I came to the last photo which was of me and Cat smiling while the fireworks lit up our faces. We looked so happy. I could feel my eyes starting to water, so I turned off my phone and wiped my eyes with my shirt. Then I started to watch TV again, but then I heard a knock at my door. I got up and walked to the door and opened it.
Tori, Andre, Beck and Jade were standing on my front porch which made my eyes widen a little. "Sup guys," I said very lightly and with a smile smile.
"How you feeling," Beck said with real concern in his voice.
"I don't really want to be here," Jade said flatly.
"Thanks, Jade," I said. "And I'm not doing so good, but I'm getting there. Come in." They all walked in and took a seat in my living room. Then I sat down too, and we all watched TV in a slightly uncomfortable silence.
"I'm sorry, about what happened, Robbie," Tori said as though she couldn't hold it in any longer, and everyone started to glare at her.
"It's okay. I didn't want to deal with it. That's why I stayed home this week, but I'm getting better," I said truthfully.
Everyone lightly smiled at that. Jade stood up, and she walked over to my side. "Well, in that case, if this helps," Jade said. "Cat thought that it was you just giving her a present."
I immediately made a confused face. "But I kissed her," I said dumbfounded.
"Yeah, she thought that it was part of the present," Jade said. I had to smile at that because it was just too cute.
"Alright enough of Cat talk," Andrea said. "The real reason why we came over was we wanted to see if you wanted to come to Karaoke Dokie with us tonight." I thought about it for a moment.
"Yeah, that'd be really cool," I said, and everyone gave me questionable looks. "I've been cooped up in my house for 4 days, and I really need to get out." Everyone smiled at me and nodded. "And I've really been craving some Buffalo Nuggets." Everyone moaned in agreement.
We arrived at Karaoke Dokie at around 7:30, just before the singing competition was about to start, and we made our way in and sat a table. The music stopped and the MC grabbed the microphone, "Okay, ladies and gents. We are about to start our singing competition for the evening, so let me hear you scream," the MC said excitedly, and everyone cheered very loudly. "Haha, okay, so first we have a young lady who is no stranger here. Please give it up for Little Red herself, CAT VALENTINE!" The crowd started to cheer.
"Oh no," Beck said.
I turned toward the stage just in time to see Cat walk up onto the stage with a very big smile on her face. She was wearing a cute pair of jeans and a yellow tank top, she looked beautiful. "Hi," she said. I smiled. "I'm going to be singing 'Firework' by Katy Perry." The music then started, and she began to sing. She sounded so great, and I got chills as the song began to get more and more epic. When the song ended the the whole place went ballistic.
I watcher her make her way off the stage, and up to a very good looking guy, who picked up Cat and spun her around. When he put her down she looked over and made eye contact with me, and she immediately smiled and waved. My eyes widened, and I quickly turned back toward the others. They were all looking at me with wide eyes. "Do you think she saw me," I asked jokingly.
"Hi, Robbie," I heard Cat say from behind me, very excitedly.
I lightly sighed and stood up, and turned toward Cat and said, "Hey, Cat." She immediately hugged me, and I lightly hugged back.
We broke apart. "I really missed you, Robbie. Why haven't you been in school," Cat asked with clear concern.
"I've just been, feeling kind of sick to my stomach these past few days," I said truthfully. "But I'm getting better." I smiled. Then Cat's boyfriend, Bruce, walked up to Cat and put his arm around her. I didn't know what to do.
"Hey, sweetie," Bruce said. "Hey guys," he said to the others, and they all gave a mix of polite hi's and hello's. Then he turned to me. "And you are?"
"He's Robbie," Cat said.
"Oh, Robbie, or course," Bruce said, and then he gave me a bro hug. "Cat talks about you all the time. It's nice to finally meet you, man." My eyes widened at his clear politeness.
"Yeah, it's nice to meet you too, man," I said with a small smile which Bruce and Cat returned.
Bruce looked back at their table, and then he turned to Cat and said,"Ooo, our Buffalo Nuggets arrived." Then he turned back toward us. "Okay, well I'll see you guys later." We all gave him warm goodbyes, mine a real, but I'm not too sure about the others.
"Bye, Robbie," Cat said as she began to walk back to her table, and I waved. I sat back down, but I was still looking at Cat and Bruce.
"Robbie, are you okay," Andre asked, but I was too busy looking at Cat and Bruce to answer. "Robbie!"
I turned back to my friends. "Yeah," I asked.
"Are you okay," Andre asked again.
"Yeah," I said, and then I looked back at Cat and Bruce. I couldn't see them, but I guessed my friends were all giving me confused looks.
"Are you sure," Tori asked with clear concern.
I turned back to my friends again and said, "She looks happy, right?"
There was moment of silence where they all looked at me like I was crazy, and then finally Tori broke it. "What," she asked, speaking for everyone.
"Cat," I began. "She looks happy, with Bruce, right?"
"Yeah, I guess, man," Beck said, not sure where I was going. "What are you planning on doing?"
"Nothing," I said. "Nothing at all. I'm going to leave her alone."
"WHAT," they all yelled quietly. All I could do was look at them and lightly laugh.
"Are you crazy," Jade said very, very, coldly.
"No," I said with finality. "She's happy with Bruce, and he's happy with her, and why would I want to ruin that for them," I said but they were still not fully understanding. "I don't want to ruin someone else's happiness in exchange for my own." Still nothing. "If you were going out with someone, would you want someone else to try and take them away from you?" That finally go through to them, and they all took that in for a moment. Then I turned back to look at Cat and Bruce who were smiling and laughing as they eat their Buffalo Nuggets which made me smile, and then I turned back to my friends just as our waitress came over to our table.
That was chapter 6, I hope you enjoyed it. I know when people write characters singing in stories they usually write the lyrics, but I write as though the narrator is telling the story to someone and they wouldn't actually sing the song while they're telling the story. Right? Anyway, I think the next chapter is going to be the last one, but if not I will let you know when I add the next chapter. Please review if you feel compelled to. Thanks :)
