Chapter 10: No Matter What

Jade had picked up Tori from her household to then head over to Hollywood Arts. Thank god, Tori didn't have to deal with Trina's driving anymore. Riding with Jade felt a lot safer; definitely way better.

The raven haired girl with colored streaks had arrived at the school; the two had made their way inside. Once they were in, already people brought their attention onto the couple. Tori looked down at the floor. Jade held onto Tori's hand before whispering into her lover's ear, "Don't let them get to you, I'm right here." The brunette slowly nodded her head.

The staring was fine. Jade however noticed that people were talking behind her and Tori's backs, how could she tell? Well she could clearly hear those words, it's not like they were trying to hide anything. These people really are trying so hard to make Jade come back as a writer. However, no matter what her fans try to pull, she wouldn't dare to go back. Especially from all the trouble being an author caused for her. It was so unhealthy.

Jade rolled her eyes; shook her head, these people seriously wouldn't quit. "Can you guys just stop?!" She yelled at the very top of her lungs. The students that were in the area all stopped talking quick. They were fans of her but they knew exactly how Jade gets whenever she's angry, and you don't wanna see that side of her.

"You all wonder why I quit writing to begin with! It's cause of people like you! Don't get me wrong, I love writing.. and I seriously don't know what I could do without it, but how can I enjoy it if my own fans get into my business?!"

Someone recorded this on their phone so they could post it online, just so everyone could get this news. No privacy at all. Jade continued to go off while Tori just stayed close to her lover at all times.

Jade already had tears in her eyes. The students couldn't believe what they saw. Jade West, crying? How rare. This is how you know that she was being serious. "I did write a book about me and Tori, and yes you all wanted me to be with her. I finally am with her and all you do is make things worse for my own personal life?" She sighed loudly as she tried to wipe away the tears on her face, that didn't work.

"Those who posted on Tori's profile, how dare you! You really think targeting my girlfriend like that would make things all better for you? It's not gonna make me come back to being an author.. it makes me so fucking glad that I quit!" Jade saw that Tori's body started to shake like crazy, she could feel it. "Hey, baby, baby, I'm right here. Stop it." She placed a gentle kiss over the Latina's cheek; looked at everyone again with red eyes.

"You see what you all did to her?! You made her think that she was worthless, ugly, and selfish! That it was all her fault! How can you guys just disrespect her like that when she did nothing to cause this!" Jade got so fired up, could you blame her for feeling like this?

"All she did was start a relationship with me. But you wanna know why she was bothered? Because you, everyone else in Los Angeles, and the whole world just wouldn't stop bothering us! Autograph here, picture there, screams here, and conversations everywhere! We needed personal space, and we wanted our relationship to work out." The whole school was quiet. No sound but Jade would be heard. "We had no time alone. The only time that we would is if we went to each other's places! Don't you think that's not fair?"

Jade shook her head, she wasn't happy at all. "And if you think that I'll ever forgive you all for what you've done? You're wrong." She meant that, the look on her face proved it. "Thanks to you, Tori feels so scared to even go to school anymore. I have to be by her side at all times! And you know? I don't even have every class with her but I don't even care! I'm going to all of her classes and be there for her cause I love her!"

She started to walk away from the crowd of students with Tori, "You people sicken me." Jade mumbled quietly, making her way inside Sikowitz's classroom; slammed the door. The bell didn't even ring yet. Sikowitz jumped and yelled for a brief second. He noticed who it was. "Ah, Jade and Tori. You know class doesn't start for another ten minutes, right?"

The couple sat down into their usual chairs. Tori instantly cuddled close against Jade, their bodies exchanging warmth. "Yes, we just wanted to get away from such a mess." At this moment, Jade wiped away her remaining tears; kept Tori in her arms.

"Your fans? You really don't deserve it Jade. Even you Tori, you both are amazing girls. I'm here for you both no matter what. I may not be anything but, I just want you two to know that." Sikowitz said, with a smile upon his face.

Jade smiled a bit at her acting teacher's comment, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, Jade." Sikowitz then took a sip of his coconut before writing on the board. "So, have you planned anything for how you're gonna deal with this trouble?" He asked, curiously. "Well, honestly.. the only hope I see is if me and Tori get homeschooled." The couple had been talking about the situation for a while. "That way, we don't have to deal with the drama at school."

Tori meanwhile looked at Jade the whole time. She felt like the luckiest person in the world to have a girl like Jade. She really is more than just a scary horror loving chick. Way more.

"As for the public and the whole world goes.. I'm sure they'll get over it. May take a while but, they have to face the fact that I don't want to do this anymore. I just want to be with Tori, and have a healthy life. Me being an author ruined everything for me. At first it was fun! But, I just can't handle it anymore. I got Tori so, that's really all I need. Her." Tori smiled and blushed, her heart melted. "Aw, Jade."

Sikowitz closed the dry erase marker with the cap; soon the bell rang for classes to start. "Well, I'm glad you have everything settled for your future. If you ever need anything, just come to me. Like I said, I'll be here for you two." If only more people could see from Jade's point of view.
