A/N: so you guys keep asking for Jade, here is Jade. There is a reason why this story does not have two characters interacting... it is because it is the three of them. A lot of it is Bori... but the best parts are Jori. this is still not very Jadey but remember Tori just told Beck she would try to go out with him. Enjoy- S.K.

Act Two: I know you

Just before my date, I headed out to the convenience store, to get some… stuff you know that I need. You know… Just in case. Anyway, the guy behind the cash register leered at me. I guess because I am a latina he felt entitled to do so. I just wanted him to give me my things so that I could go.

"Hey, you're cute." He said licking his lips.

"Thanks." I acknowledged

He bobbed his head at me and smirked "You wanna go out with me?"

I shook my head. "No thanks." Damn cant you see I am not receptive?

"Why not? I mean we'd have a good time."

"I'm a lesbian—" I answered thinking that would put a stop to it.

"I'm cool with that." He countered. Asshole. "You know I am open like that."

"And I already have a boyfriend."

"Well the more the merrier." I groaned and just turned to walk away. But just as I reached the door, a girl snached it open.

She looks so familiar. I couldn't let it go, I mean she looked right past me. She doesn't see me she just says. "Um, coffee Black two sugars Fernando."

She had to see me… I stopped and said, "Hey I know you!"

"Oh! Hi." She said and smiled at me, "You remember me?"

I smirked. "Of course I do, The director. How could I forget?"

She smiled "You said I had great hands."

I glanced at them and smiled, "Well you do."

She frowned and shook her head. "I… I gotta go"

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Oh, stupid man drama." She said reaching for her coffee and paying for it. Then she shook her head and fought back some tears.

"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked. Then she hugs me breaking down. I grab my bag and lead her over to the park and we sit.

She tells me this story about how her boyfriend said that he just couldn't be with her anymore and left her. "And I told him that if he walked out of that door, that he better not come back because he will find the door locked."

"I can't believe he just sprung it on you like that." I stated lending a hardly sympathetic ear. "Where is he?" she shrugged. "Oh Jade, I'm sorry…"

"Good riddance I suppose. Men are Dogs. I thought he was different, but I guess he isn't."

"He isn't?" I said.

Then she reached over at me and placed her hand on my thigh. My mind went blank. Jade what are you thinking? You don't touch a gay woman unless… Unless… does Jade wanna get with me. Oh she's talking. Listen Tori, listen. "you are so lucky you are a lesbian, I mean Men are just not worth it."

"I understand." I said and patted the hand that was on my lap, then I reached up and brushed a stray hair out of her face.

"Shit, I have to go." She said finishing up her coffee. "I'd love to talk to you some more. Here's my number," she took a card out of her purse, handed it to me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. "Call me okay?"

Then she got up and walked away. And I stared after her. I turned and this lady sitting next to me smirked at me. I mean what was that all about? "She was coming on to you." The lady confirmed.

"She was right?" I stated more than asked.

"Yeah she was, that whole damsel in distress bit," she insisted.

"Well I feel bad for her," I said trying to tell myself I didn't want anything from Jade. "My girlfriend walked out on me, I know how she feels. It's just hell being alone."

"No honey, Hell is other people." She said and went back to her book. I sighed and sat back on the bench I had some thinking to do before my date.

I showed up at Beck's door and another dude answered the door. His eyes looked surprised. "Well Hello!"

"Hi, I'm Tori." I said to him. He wouldn't stop staring at my legs.

"Bye Moose." Beck said walking out of the apartment.

"Are you sure Tori wouldn't want to come in for a little Vino or something?" Moose asked.

"Nope we're good." Beck said wrapping an arm around me and he guided me down the hall.

"Nice to meet you." I stated to a bewildered looking Moose "Maybe next time!"

Okay so I will just … let him down easy. I will stop dating a man soon. Get back to what I really want. What do I really want? Was It Jade? I feel my pocket for the card she gave me. Maybe… at least she is the right gender.
