A/N: This is a shorter one, mostly because I skipped a scene due to the fact I can't write smut to save my life. Speaking of which, if anyone would like to help me with that, that would be awesome. But anyway, the newest installment, enjoy.


Jade's POV

I think it's great how you can have the shittiest couch on the face of the earth, like we do, yet it can feel like the most comfortable thing ever, if you just have the right person cuddled up next to you. 'Cause let's face it, sexy woman makes bad things good.

I woke up just as Tori decided to try to get up, failing miserably and oh-so-gracefully rolling off the couch and falling onto the floor. I laugh and look down at her, "Having a problem there?"

"Nope, perfectly fine," she said, finally succeeding in standing up.

I get up and walk to our bedroom to get ready for the day, stopping to kiss her on the way. Today was my first day back on the job after a week's vacation. We're getting back to work on my play, hopefully getting it ready to rehearse the acting portions soon. Tori had a gig later tonight at a night club downtown; I was going to go watch her after I left work.

While I was getting ready I noticed quite a few of my things were misplaced. I asked Tori first, to see if she had taken them for any reason. It was just trivial things; assorted makeups, a hairbrush, even my toothbrush. She said she didn't know anything about it. I knew I didn't just misplace it, I'm very neat and everything is always in its place.

I brushed it off as nothing, getting ready as normal otherwise. I got some cereal before leaving to go to Jetbrew for some coffee, leaving Tori alone at home. It made me uncomfortable but I had to leave. She had my number if she needed anything.

It's great how I just walk in, they take one look at me and get to work on my coffee without any words needed. They know I'm in no mood to speak before I've had my coffee.

Tori's POV

I was nervous about being alone in that house for the first time, the cleansing left it feeling different, more peaceful, but I felt like it wasn't over. Still, I had a life to live, I couldn't dwell on it.

I kept myself busy with housework, cleaning and making things more…homey. I put pictures of us, the gang, family, all kinds of things around the house for an aesthetic touch.

I had a gig later tonight and I was super excited to get back to work after a week's worth of absence. Just thinking of being on that stage again had me jumping around in excitement.

Though as I was getting dressed for the day later on, I couldn't find my favorite jeans. My first instinct was that Jade took them. I couldn't see why, as she knew they were my favorite. I just let it go, until I realized the entirety of the outfit I was going to wear that night was missing. I called Jade for an explanation.

"Tori? Something wrong?" She asked in a concerned voice when she picked up the phone.

I was reluctant to bitch at her after she sounded so concerned, but still, I was upset. "You didn't happen to touch the outfit I was going to wear tonight, did you?"

"What? Of course not, why?"

She sounded genuinely confused, and it made me sick to my stomach. Things don't just up and walk away.

"They're just gone, I specifically remember setting them out last night and they aren't there."

Suddenly I remembered this morning, "Hey, wait. Didn't you say this morning a bunch of your stuff was missing?"

She sounded apprehensive, "Yeah…"

I didn't want to think about it, I didn't want it to happen. We'd just forget about it. "Let's just not worry about it. I'll see you tonight, okay?"

"Yeah, Love you Tor, stay safe."

"Love you too."


Later on that night, after I frantically dug through my closet for a new outfit and got ready for the gig I decided everything was fine and nothing was broken. So no need to worry about it.

Around 7:30 Andre came and picked me up. "Hey chica," he said as he gave me a hug at the door. We drove to the night club, showing our ID's at the door to get past the overly-muscled bouncer.

8:30 rolled around and the club owner introduced us, I hopped onto the stage along with Andre and the rest of our group. It was great being on a stage in front of a bunch of people again. Andre had been writing a few new songs for us to perform tonight while we were on the week long break.

About 1/3 through our second song, I noticed Jade standing off to the side, a proud smile on her face. I winked at her, and even though I was about 20 feet from her, I think she actually blushed.

We had about 5 more songs to play periodically, but it was amazing singing again. About 3 of the songs were ones Andre had personally written, 4 others were covers of other songs.

After our performance I made my way over to Jade, pulling her into a slow, passionate kiss. I didn't care much about who saw or what they thought, but I did vaguely hear loud cheering outside my little world of Jade.

We decided not to drink, so we could actually drive ourselves home, though we did stay to chat with Andre for a while. But when simple hand holding under the table turned into teasing caresses along the thighs we figured it was time to go.

We said our goodbyes to Andre and left for the night, to celebrate my successful concert in our own way. Holding hands the whole drive back home, stumbling into bed refusing to break our lip-lock, frantically tearing at each other's clothes, we completely forgot about that day's unusual occurrences.

Making out with Jade after the lovemaking sessions is always a great way to wind down. One of the very first things I learned about Jade after we started dating, that girl sure can kiss. That skill hasn't faltered one bit over the years, she still gives me butterflies every time.

Finally tired out, we settled down to sleep, nodding off quickly.

A few hours later I woke up, Jade was spooning me, and her arm around me felt comforting. I snuggled against her and tried to go back to sleep. I suddenly felt a…foot? Brush against the shin of my leg. I thought nothing of it, figuring it was just Jade moving in her sleep.

It my sleep induced haze, I failed to notice both of her legs were behind mine.


A/N: I know, boo me, skipping the good part. I'll work on it, but in the meantime, hope you enjoyed and let me know what you think!

P.S. Wonder what time it was when Tori woke up...
