Hey guys, sorry for not updating in a couple days but I've been having some heart complications and had to get all of that sorted out. Anyway here is Chapter 10 for you.

Disclaimer: I do not own Victorious or the characters associated with it.

...

The date is tonight. I'm not really nervous about the date itself, only how Jade will react to me. If she actually acts like it's a date and takes it serious than all will be good. So basically she told me she was buying tickets for the Issues concert at House of blues on Sunset. I think she was trying to test me because she told me like she was expecting a bad reaction. I mean that's really not my scene but I do like the music. I'm just not one for going to concerts. I'd rather be on stage preforming than watching others. Don't get me wrong I love live music but I'm just not the concert type especially rock concerts. I don't know how well getting punched in the dick while moshing would go. I hear that happens a lot. Anyway I refused to let her buy the tickets so she told me where to get them. I don't really know what to wear to this event so I picked out my dark blue skinny jeans and an old scatter pattern flannel with a black t-shirt under it. Yes, it is rather generic but it looks really good on me. I have like an hour until I need to leave to pick her up. I'm already ready and have been for an hour. I don't want to mess up so I keep checking for any problems in wardrobe. I put a slight curl to my hair but the fell into waves.

"Tori, can I talk to you for a minute?" my dad says as he knocks on my door.

"Yeah, come on in. What is it dad?" I ask as he sits at my desk facing me on my bed.

"Tor, about this date tonight, do you know this girl well." He asks.

"What do you mean? Yeah I know her from school." I say confused as to why he's asking this.

"No I mean like, is she very….. active? I know you and Jess dated for a couple months and you knew her for a while before you got together. I'm just wondering about any STI's she may have. I don't mean to insult you, or her but it's something I have to ask now that you are going to be with someone new." He says seriously. I love my dad, I really do and I understand that he is taking precautions for my safety but I am an adult now.

"Dad I understand your concern but in all honesty I don't plan on that happening tonight. I really like Jade and I wouldn't want to mess up my chances by having her think I just want her for her body. Also she was with the same guy for the past three years and both seemed to be completely loyal to one another." I say and he nods.

"Okay, just be safe. I know you will and I don't have to worry but I still do. Love you kiddo. Oh yeah, your mother wants to talk to you before you leave." he says standing and walking to the door. I nod and get up to follow him out.

I find mom sitting in the upstairs office working on something. Probably a case or something. I knock to let her know I'm here not to startle her. She smiles and waves me in.

"Hey ma, dad said you wanted to talk to me before I leave." I say and she gets a small smile on her face.

"Yes, I just wanted to inspect your outfit and ask where you all are going." My mother asks with a giant grin spread across her face. She takes in my appearance and it feels like my first date again.

"Mom, I've done this a thousand times. It's no big deal." I say with a smile. My mom is a big sap and an even bigger romantic.

"So where did she choose to go?" she asks enthusiastically.

"To the Issues concert. I mean I've heard them and I don't hate them but I'm not sure about the whole rock concert thing. Also it doesn't seem like a first date kind of thing to do. I just hope that she is taking me seriously because I do really like her." I tell her and she looks understanding but her smile never faltered.

I look at my watch and it's 4:29. The concert starts at 6:30 and I still have to pick up Jade plus the place isn't that close by so I should probably get going soon.

"Tori, I could tell that Jade likes you. It may be hard for her to come to terms with these feelings. She may feel uncomfortable and if that means a first date that isn't that romantic but she feels comfortable with it then go for it. As long as she feels comfortable and safe enough with you in that place then you can't go wrong. Just make sure you make her feel like it's a date. Do everything in your power to make her feel special and what is the first rule for dating." She asks with a smirk. I sigh because my parents taught me this when I was six and had a crush on the babysitter.

"She is a princess and will be treated as such. Don't make her feel uncomfortable or less than a princess. She is special and you will make her feel that way." I recite with a hand over my heart exactly like how my dad showed me. My mom smiles and looks at her laptop for a moment before looking back to examine me once more.

"I feel that your attire is well enough placed and you need no assistance you are dismissed." My mom says with her business woman voice but smiles after. I give a salute and about face ready to take my leave. I'm halfway to my room when I her my mom yell 'red beanie'. I just smile and go to grab it from my dresser.

I leave my house at exactly 5:01 and I'm on the road to Jade's house. The closer I get the more nervous I am. I've never been nervous for a date other than with Masie. I just hope everything goes well and something blossoms between us. It would suck if I got my hopes up for nothing. Even though Beck said that jade does have feelings for me I still doubt it a lot because she is like amazingly beautiful and she agreed (reluctantly and with persuasion) to go on a date with me. I mean yeah I know my previous serious girlfriends where okay with it and everything but I had known them for a while. Contrary to my parents belief I've only been intimate with two girls. Jess and Masie. The girl who took my virginity I don't count as an intimate encounter. My parents caught us in the middle and it wasn't really intimate, it was just hormone driven teenage sex. Fucking. That's not what I want with Jade. Scratch that, yes I do. Ohh I've wanted to fuck her brains out and pound her until she can't walk straight since I met her but after that I want something more. I her to be mine, I want to be hers.

Pulling up to the gate pulls me from my thoughts and I realize that I've been driving on autopilot since I left home. I really need to save my thinking time for when I'm not behind the wheel and on the way to pick up a date. This was not safe and it's why I had to wait so long to get my license. Damned old woman crossing in a high traffic area without a cross walk.

HOOOOOOONNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKK

Damn it, I did it again. Okay code, drive, turn, break for kid chasing ball, drive, turn, pull in, unbuckle, get ou- I guess I can stop now. I wonder what the other bands playing sound like. Jeez I did it while walking. Maybe I'm ADD. I'll have to take to mom about that. Tori stop! Okay knock and wait.

A Tall man with a suit and Jades eyes answers the door with a confused look. He looks me over and gets this look like he remembers me or something but I've never met this man that I'm guessing is Jades dad. He opens the door wider letting me in before closing it back.

"I suppose you are Tori?" He says in a deep voice scrutinizing me from his height.

"Yes sir. That's me sir." I say nervously. Another new thing, meeting the father. Usually I already know them. He looks pleased and starts his way to the kitchen gesturing me to follow.

"Jade will be down in a moment but I have a few things I need to ask." He says with an eyebrow raised.

"Sir?" I ask nodding for him to continue. Hints of a smile show on his lips.

"Tori, Jade says that you two will be going on a date. Jade may not believe it but I do love her, very much so. I want to know that you will take care of her and protect her because as much as she acts as though she doesn't need it, she really does." He says seriously.

"Yes sir. My father is a police officer and he taught me to defend myself as a small child and he always makes me carry mace with me." I say pulling my keys up to show the small container of mace latched on.

"Good, now I saw the other day that you were asleep with Jade while she was sick. I understand that you came to keep her company and to sort of take care of her? I really appreciate that. It shows that you really care. One thing, how long have you know Jade?" he ask with furrowed brows.

"Well a little over three months. We officially met when I started attending Hollywood Arts. I don't know she just got to me. After the first time I saw her I couldn't get her out of my head so I asked her out. He smiles as we hear footsteps coming down the stairs. I turn around to see Jade in fishnet stockings with a short black skirt and a long sleeved black and white shirt. So simple yet so beautiful. I smile and her and she kind of blushes lightly. The only reason I could tell was because she is so pale it's just easier to detect blush on her face.

"You ready?" she asks walking over to where me and her father are.

"Yeah," I turn to her dad "It was a pleasure . I hope to see you soon." I say as Jade almost drags me out the door.

"When did you and my father get all chummy?" she asks with a kind of snort.

"He's a pretty ok guy. We were just talking before you came down." I say pulling out of her driveway.

"He actually liked you?" she asked surprised.

"I guess." I say with a shrug. She just looks at me suspiciously the rest of the way. Wonder what she's thinking.

...

So bummer, no date yet just a little longer. I Kid, it will be next chapter. Date and next day. After the first date i think things will take off for our girls. Do you guys think the date will go well or end horribly wrong with someone crying towards the end? Review? Byeee
