Hey everyone! I had some computer issues and was without my computer and half of this chapter for like a month. Anywho here it is. I hope you love it! Please review!

The Blond Squad

(Toris POV)

Cat was really making me crazy with all of this blond-hair-blue-eye nonsense. Cat was beautiful and I could not wrap my brain around why she was being so weird about this. Who cares if a guy doesn't like the person you are, I mean that is his problem right? Of course who was I to talk, every time I looked at Jade I couldn't help but let doubt creep in. She was so dark, mysterious, beautiful and evil. How was I supposed to compete with that? I was a sissy, an open book, easily read, and far too nice to everyone. I don't know why, after dating someone so confident and take-charge, Beck would date me. It just didn't make any sense at all.

I was sitting at the table at lunch waiting for everyone to get there when Beck showed up.

"Hey Angel. What's up?" I tilted my head up to see him and he placed a sweet kiss on my lips. What was I worrying about? Guys who don't like you don't treat you the way that Beck treats me, not even a little bit. And yet I still felt self-conscious.

"Hey you. Not much just eating my pasta, how about you?" I smiled as he sat down and placed a hand on my thigh and squeezed before letting go.

"Just about to eat my burrito with my favorite girl. So what is up with Cat?" He asked opening his container that held his lunch.

"Oh you mean how she is losing her mind? Yea, I dunno we thought it would be fun to go to Nozu in our wigs and contacts, ya' know just because. Well she met some guy there, they really hit it off but she was worried he wouldn't like her for her so me and Jade pulled up his Splash Face page to prove her wrong and, well, it turns out he has a type. Blond hair and blue eyes. Now she doesn't know what to do." I smiled trying to act like it was no big deal but deep down I was feeling less and less like I wanted to be here. I started fidgeting in my seat and was suddenly very aware of every move I was making, every breath I was taking, and every single direction my eyes darted.

"Tori are you ok?" Beck put his burrito down looking suddenly very worried.

"Yup I am fine." I plastered the biggest, most fake smile ever across my face. "I just realized I promised Sikowitz I would do something for him. I gotta run." I got up and gathered my stuff and leaned down placing a kiss on his cheek. "Bye Beck."

"Umm bye, Babe." He smiled vaguely and waved as I ran past Andre and Jade coming toward the table.

Beck: Hey you, you ran off so fast I forgot to ask are we still in for our "study" date tonight?

Tori: Umm yea sure of course.

I was sitting in the supply closet when I got Becks text. I was nervous about tonight, Beck knew me well enough to know that something was up and that I was lying. I was sure he would call me out on it the minute he got me alone. I heard the bell ring and exited the closet, unfortunately, just as the group was coming down the hall. I turned quick to hide my face but it was to late.

"Tori!" Robbie yelled and I turned to them with an awkward smile on my face. This could not possibly suck any worse. I fell into step with them and Beck laid his arm over my shoulders pulling me in and placing a kiss on my forehead.

"I thought you were doing something for Sikowitz?" He whispered in my ear.

"I was."

"In the closet? That's a bit sketchy." He seemed nervous now too.

"Uhh I was looking for something for him." I smiled trying to be reassuring.

"Well I don't believe you but we can talk about it later." He stopped me outside our classroom and kissed me hard on the lips.

"If you need something, or if something is wrong I'm here for you Tori. You know that."

I smiled again and nodded and then turned to walk into the room.

Later that night I sat in my room going through a pile of clothes on my floor looking for something even remotely edgy. I looked at the piles of blues, tans, reds, greens, pinks, and purples and I threw myself back into the pile in my closet. It was hopeless I was officially the least edgy person I know.

"Tori!" I heard my mother call from downstairs. "Beck's here!"

I shot straight up, "Crap," I mumbled under my breath and then shouted, "Send him up!" I sighed and fell back again.

"Hey To….what ya doing?" he said in a sing song voice.

I opened my eyes to find him directly above me looking far to amused for the situation. I got up and wandered to my bed plopping down and putting my legs in his lap as he sat down.

"I'm not edgy." I pouted.

"You say that like it is going to explain why I found you laying in the contents of your closet." He laughed.

"Jade is edgy. She is dark and mysterious and I am just a goody goody." I turned over on my side so he couldn't see my face.

"What the hell does…." He stopped mid sentence as realization hit him. He jumped up and my legs fell back on the bed and I sat up to stare at him.

"Is this about the Cat thing? Is that why you have been acting so wonky all day?" I didn't respond only stared slightly past him. I was suddenly very embarrassed.

"I knew this was getting to you! Quit acting like Cat, Tori. You should know better than that!" He was on the floor now, kneeling in front of me holding my hands.

"You are sweet, gentle, kind, funny, caring, and happy. Those are all the reasons I love you." I don't think it occurred to him what he had said until he realized I wasn't talking.

"Shit. Tori I am sorry I wasn't going to say it like that…" I cut him off with a hard kiss as I pulled him up off the ground and lay back on the bed. I wasn't sure what got into me but as I felt him straddle my hips I assumed it must have been what he said and me realizing that it was true. I should have known, I should have realized that he was being real with me and that this was Beck and he never did things he didn't want to do.

Right now with him over me, one hand in my hair, his lips hard on mine, and his hair in my face, I realized that we were on the same page. We loved each other and nothing else mattered. Not Jade, not Cat, school, my clothes on the floor, my family downstairs, suddenly none of it made any difference to me and I loved it. Beck loved me and I loved him and until those two things failed to be true everything would be perfect.

I felt his lips leave mine and felt the weight of his body disappear and I opened my eyes and saw him kneeling above me. I smiled and propped myself on my elbows I suddenly despised being even an inch away from him.

"I love you too Beck." He got that bad boy smirk on his face and leaned over to kiss me one last time.

"Good, now lets hurry up and get our scene writing homework over with so we can pick this back up." He winked at me and slid off the bed pulling me up with him and grabbing my backpack as he pulled me out the door.

Yup this was perfect.
