Chapter 10

Black Box Theater~ before the play

"Alrighty kids are you ready to- Tori! What are you doing here" Sikowitz said.

"I'm the lead in the play." Tori said confused.

"Sinjin! I told you to tell her""Tell me what""I don't want you in the play tonight, Jade knows all your lines and she'll be playing the lead.""But I've worked so hard," Tori said tearing up,

"I know and I'm sorry but you fractured your leg" Tor opened her mouth to protest but Sikowitz held up a hand "My word is final" he said walking away.

She turned around to Beck "Why didn't you tell me!"

"Because no one told me" Beck said.

"Opps" Jade said, "I must have forgotten to tell you Beck I'm so sorry, and Tori I'm sorry you're so clumsy,"

"You're a real bitch; you know that," Tori said, "You can't handle the fact that someone is actually better than you are at something. I was sorry that I stole Beck but now I'm not, I know you put the water on the stairs and did this to me."Jade walked up to Tori so that their noses were barely touching, "Prove it" she whispered and walked away.

"One minute people" Sikowitz called. Beck kissed Tori, and she left the stage to watch on the side.

She texted her, 'Mom got kicked off because of leg. I'm staying.'

Five minutes later her mom texted back, 'Ok, Trina, Dad and I are going out to dinner down the street. Is Beck driving you home?'

'Yes' Tori texted back. The lights went down and the play started. She watched Beck, who would sneak a smile at her every chance he got, when Jade came on stage Tori felt nothing but anger.

'I understand she's mad, I would be pissed too but this was too far.' she thought.

For the next hour she watched the romance grow, she felt jealous of Jade, for all she knew Beck was starting to like Jade again.

'I can't let her win' she thought. Jade was walking down the stairs like Tori had the other day but minus the fall. She and Beck walked to the side, the curtain quickly closed and everyone was changing the set.

"Tori!" Robbie called behind her holing his pear pad, "You were right, Jade did put the water on the stairs" he yelled.

"What" Lane said behind Robbie. He played the tape that show Jade put the water on the stairs.

"Come with me" Lane said pulling Jade away.

Tori looked at Sikowitz, "It's too dark no one will see the change in actresses"

"You're leg" he started.

"She'll be sitting down" Beck chimed in handing Tori the dress.

"Fine but hurry, Beck get in position"

Tori quickly put on the dress and ran on stage. She sat on the little stool behind the cardboard rowboat looking at Beck, smiling the biggest grin.

The curtain went up, "I love you" he said accidentally.

"I love you too, B-Zach" Tori said. They leaned in for the kiss that ended the play and this story.
