Tori's P.O.V
Only In My Dreams
The squeaking of the door caused me to look up panic as I sat up straight sweating it was only in my dreams wow it seemed as real as it could be. Jade wasn't going to kill me.
Hey be..
Expecting to see Beck as I shock out the strange dream of Jade I started to smile..my face froze when I saw Jade walk in. Backing up out of bed I was filled with terror did she know? Did she catch us?
Jade?
What the f..
She cussed shocked to see me as she flipped on the light.
Vega what are you doing here?
I was all set with a snappy comeback when her voice came out sounding strained depressed weak very un-Jade like.
Gulping I asked myself why did I care?
Jade what's wrong?
She sat on the bed arms crossed.
Like you care Vega
Well if I didn't I wouldn't be asking
Why did I care so much though really? Jade was never really my friend.
She looked at me trying to decide trust me or not to trust me? Slowly I headed over my own arms crossed quite nervous if Beck came back with our drinks she would know for sure.
Jade I can tell your upset
Wow your a real star pupil
Jade stop with the wise cracks that's why you have so few friends
See I thought my personality was a very heart warming charming feature
Yea if someone likes witches and being burned in potions
Bump you Vega
Now come on Jade you know you love me
Like fish love land Vega
Aw come on Jade you know I'm better then some smelly old fish
Says who?
She arched a eyebrow.
Plenty of people
Your family dog doesn't count Vega
Ow
I pretended to pout she nudged me laughing.
You ever wonder why were here?
What do you mean?
Like why did our parents have us why did god let us be born?
Why go after our dreams if god has a whole other plan for our lives ones he probably crafted for us before we were even born?
Pretty heavy stuff West
Yea well
So what's going on?
When did you know Tori?
Know what West?
When did you know you wanted to preform?
I was never really totally into it until Trina
Well I knew since I was like 2 that this is where I belonged
I was always singing and dancing around the place
My mom use to say I was born to do this she made me promise to always work hard
Stay true to my dreams without losing myself
Your mom sounds like a wise loving woman
Yea she was and I let her down
No you haven't Jade uh hello you worked your butt off to get into one of the top
Preforming Arts High schools in all the country your at the top of our class
You already wrote your own screen play had it produced and made it into a west end production
I would say any mom would be proud
She wouldn't be proud of me now
Why would you say that?
Cause..
Jade's eyes filled with tears I looked around where was Cat? She has been Jade's best friend since they were kids. No one was around sighing I pushed myself closer to her putting my arm around her waist she suddenly broke down.
Rubbing her back while she cried I worried what could be so bad Jade West broke down over it?
Sniffling she stood up she hugged me I almost dropped dead from shock.
Thanks
For what?
For listening
Well sure are you okay now?
No..god..I can't believe I am so stupid so careless
Your not stupid or careless Jade Mean and bossy maybe
Hey watch it Vega I know where you live
My dad's a cop!
True True
She sighed.
I'm pregnant Tori and I'm scared
Your what? Oh my god! Does Beck know?
No and your not telling him!
She stood up angrily ..
He wouldn't care
Yes he would
No he wouldn't Beck is all about his bad boy status he likes getting girls once he's had them he's done
Jade you've been with him for four years
Really Tori cause love is suppose to mean staying with the one you love forever
Beck is forever chasing girls come on Veg your in our class you know it's true
You see him with all the other girls all the time
Yea but he always comes home to you
So were 17 it doesn't mean he wants a kid he likes sex I bet you he's hooked up with someone already.
I froze how could I deny it when I know he had . God she would kill me ..I wanted to kill me.
Jade
Don't bother you know don't you I bet it was some cheap thrill
That he met last night he'll try to cover it up but I'm not stupid I know better
Who is she Tori?
I didn't..I don't ..Beck loves you
Forget it I've manged on my own for 17 years I'll manage on my own now who cares if all my dreams
die. Beck gets to live his dreams his life typical the girl suffers when it's his responsibility as well as mine.
Jade
Forget it Vega and I'm warning you keep your mouth shut!
She stormed out as I sunk down exhausted head pounding eyes burning. The door scared me as Beck came in my throat went dry.
[An Hour Later]
Jade calm down!
Calm down why!
She shoved me hard I yelped hitting the wall.
You told didn't you is that why you don't want me?
No I swear I didn't
Didn't what Vega?
Didn't tell my boyfriend I'm pregnant didn't sleep with my boyfriend
N...
Wait did she ? Slap her hand flew against my face dang she had some power her eyes blazed as she hit me over and over.
Jade stop
Stop what Tori?
Trusting people caring , hoping, thanks to you and Beck I have..
Her voice was laced with such venom and sadness it scared me backing up I tried to escape her rage my face was on fire. She was beat red fist clenched shaking hard . My foot caught on something I was afraid she was going to kill me. I swallowed as she screamed her fist connecting with my face.
Jade please don't I'm sorry I was drunk I …
Shut it Vega just shut the...up
Jade no!
She lunged at me her hands wrapped around my throat I tried to kick her but she was strong. I couldn't wedge out she was pressing harder and harder trapping my body against the wall and bed. I felt the air leaving my body getting thinner and thinner, my fear was past alarmed I was in full panic mode, I couldn't talk ..loud noises erupted inside my ears.
Pain shot through me is this what death felt like? Everything went black.
