Tori's POV
"Hey baby, ready to go shopping?" my mom says coming down the stairs.
"Yeah all set. What are we going shopping for exactly?"
"Your father has a police business dinner in a few days and I need a new dress to wear to it. I was hoping you could help me find one. I'm sorry you had to cancel with Megan though."
"I was upset, but honestly I'm in the best mood ever right now." I say as we both head outside to the car.
"That would explain why you can't stop smiling. So what are you so happy about?"
"Look what Megan got me for our one month anniversary." I say showing my mom the locket.
"Oh my goodness Tori its beautiful! Wait is this real silver?"
"Yeah why?" I ask getting a little confused.
"Well nothing its just, are you aware of how expensive silver is? Especially for a necklace like this?" I look at my necklace now and start to feel a little guilty. I feel bad because it always seems like I cause Megan to spend a lot of money on me and I can never really return the favor.
"That's true love right there. I think you've got yourself a keeper there Tori."
"Yeah, I really do mom." I say as the smiling returns.
"I'm happy for you two. So what are you going to get her then?"
"Does that one friend of Dad's still sell autographed sport accessories? What is his name like Rick maybe?"
"Yeah I think so why? What do you have in mind?"
"Well you see Megan is a huge Packers fan, so I was thinking since Dad and Rick are really good friends maybe he could help me choose something for her. Plus he normally gives us discounts. Can we stop by his store when you're done dress shopping?"
"I don't see why not. I shouldn't be too long." she says. A few minutes we arrive at the mall. While I waited for her to try on some dresses, I decided to text Megan in the mean time.
(Author here, anyways the italicized words represent Tori's messages and the bold words represent Megan's messages. Now back to the story)
Hey Meggy bear ;)
There's my Tori Bear :)
Thanks again for the necklace! I don't think you understand how much I love it!
Well I'm glad you do! To be honest I was a little worried you wouldn't like it that much
Of course I love it! Why would I not?
Because I'm definitely not the best person when it comes to picking out jewelry...seriously I spent at least 3 hours in Kays trying to pick something out. I'm sure the employees there were making fun of me afterwards :P
Awww I can't believe you went through all that trouble for me!
Told ya I'd do anything as long as I get to see your smile in the end ;)
I love you and I honestly can't tell you how thankful I am for you!
Ditto Tori Bear :)
I don't think I'll ever get tired of you calling me that :)
I like calling you that, it shows you're my girl :). So I was thinking since we have cliché nicknames for each other, we should also have a song for us.
A song? Like as a couple?
Yeah. That way every time we hear that particular song on like the radio or something we can be like 'hey that's our song'. You wanna or is that too cliché?
No its cute! I'd love to do that! Any song in mind?
Well there is one I heard on the radio the other day when I was driving home the other day. I mean it was the first time I heard it, but it automatically made me think of you because the lyrics describe exactly how I feel about us. I hate the band its by though -_-
Is it One Direction? :P
Sadly :P. But I'm willing to look past the fact that its by them because I absolutely love the song I'm talking about. Anyways its called You and I. Ever heard it?
I don't think so. I'll look it up when I get home.
Ok. Hey I hate to leave you hanging all of the sudden but Susan just brought Connor over cause she got called into work last minute and she needs me to baby sit him. Text me when you get home and look up that song :P
Alright have fun with Connor :). I love you
Love you too babe
By now my mom has already found and dress and paid for it so we head towards the car and begin driving to Rick's store. It takes us about ten minutes to get there, and when we do Rick instantly recognizes us.
"Ah the lady Vegas! What brings you to my shop tonight?"
"Well my girlfriend and I's one month anniversary is tomorrow and she's a huge Packers fan so I was wondering if you had anything autographed by any Packers players?" I ask.
"Oh yeah I have a lot of Packers items in the back. Follow me and you can pick something out." I agree and my mom and I follow him to the back. And dang, he wasn't kidding when he said he had a lot of Packers items in the back either! There's so many items between footballs, hats, jerseys, etc. Something catches my eye though. Over in one of the corners is a helmet singed by Aaron Rodgers. Megan's always wanted one of those, it would be perfect!
"How much is the Helmet?" I ask Rick.
"She's a limited edition helmet signed by the famous quarterback himself. Normally I ask for $200 on items like these, but since you are David's family and he is one of my best friends, I normally give him and will give you guys a 70% off discount which means it will be $60."
"I'll take it." I say getting money out of my wallet. There goes my allowance from the past few months, but hey Megan is totally worth it. I pay Rick for the helmet, he wraps it up for me, and then my mom and I head home.
Megan's POV
"Alright little man, we don't have to put you to bed for another two hours and it's Monday night which means football is on. What do you say you and I watch the Packers kick some butt!" I say to Connor while sitting him on my bed and grabbing my remote. He looks up at me and smiles.
"I'll take that as a yes." I say smiling back at him and turning the game on and then sitting him in my lap. Just then Jasper pushes my cracked door open and hopes onto my bed with us.
"Oh hell no. Jasper you better get your furry ass off my bed if you wanna keep it. I'm not afraid to cut your tail off." Jasper then begins rubbing up against Connor which makes him laugh. "Ok yeah yeah that's cute, you can leave now you little hair ball. And then Jasper hops onto my chest and then curls up into a little ball. If I didn't have a six month old baby sitting in my bed, I'd be throttling this cat across my room.
"Taylor, Cat, come get this hair ball from hell off of me!" I yell.
"Kinda busy here!" I hear Taylor scream from her room. I don't even want to know what they're doing in there!"
"Great, while they're in there probably playing sheet tag, I've gotta put up with you. Just don't bother me while I'm watching the game and maybe I wont put you in the blender. " Just then I get a text from Tori saying:
I know you're baby sitting Connor, but do you mind if my mom drops me off at your house right quick so I can give you your gift?
Yeah that's fine, you can watch the game with us :P. And you know you didn't have to get me a gift right?
Well I did because I love you :). Anyways I'll be there in about 5 minutes.
Alright, the door is unlocked so you can just come on in when you get here. By the way, would you mind bringing the blender back here too?
For what?
You'll see -_-
A few minutes later Tori walks in to my room carrying a box.
"It's on me. If Connor wasn't sitting on my lap, I would throttle this thing across the room." I say and she smiles
"Oh c'mon this is the cutest thing ever! I've gotta get a picture!"
"Don't you dare Vega!"
"It's just one picture! And stop sounding like Jade!"
"Fine one picture! But if that ends up on the internet I'll put you and Jasper in the blender."
"Wow you really do sound like Jade now." she says laughing
"Come sit and watch the game with us." I say scooting over and patting the other half of the bed. She walks over and sit down with me. "I guess you could wear this while you watch the game now." She says handing me the cardboard box. I open it up and almost pass out when I pull out a Packers helmet signed by the one and only Aaron Rodgers.
"Holy shit where did you get this?!"
"My dad's friend owns a store that sales autographed sport accessories and this caught my eye cause I remember you saying you would do anything to have one of these."
"Thanks babe. You're the best." I say leaning in and kissing him. Just then we hear some what of a loud scream coming from Taylor's room.
"What was that?" Tori asks looking freaked out.
"I do believe they are playing sheet tag in there." I say.
"Ok I did not need to know that!"
"Well you asked!" I say laughing. And then there's another scream.
"Will you take Connor and the little hair ball from hell for a minute?"
"Yeah sure. What are you gonna do?" she says as I put Connor in her lap and lay Jasper next to her.
"Oh you'll see." I say opening my door and walking over to Taylor's bedroom door, its literally no more than three feet away. They're gonna kill me for doing this, but hey they'll get over it. I start banging on the door. "Hey look if you guys want to play hide and seek under the covers, no one is stopping you. But can ya keep it down in there! I mean for crying out loud there's a six month old baby in my room and I doubt he wants to hear what porn sounds like!"
"I'm going to break your neck Megan!" I hear Taylor scream. I take off to my room. I shut it and lock it in time before Taylor begins pounding on the door.
"Megan open the door so I can break your neck!" I hear Taylor scream again. "Oh shut up and go back to playing hide and seek with your girlfriend."
"Pervert." is all I hear from her until I hear the sounds of her door shutting. I look over at Tori and see that she is laughing at me and so is Connor.
"You're terrible Megan." she says as I sit down next to her on the bed.
"I don't need to hear their 'activities' going on, I'm sorry but its not exactly what I want to hear. And I mean they've only been dating for a month! Kinda early for that don't you think?"
"Well if they're in love and they think it's the time they should do it, then why not?" she says looking at me. Alright don't judge me, but I just got really turned on...oh look a football game! Let's watch that and pretend like I don't have excessive feelings to make love to my beautiful girlfriend right now!
Tori's POV
Ok, Im not gonna lie. I'm really turned on now. I mean yes I've been turned on by Megan before, but never this bad! And to think its because our best friends are in the bedroom next door playing 'sheet tag' as Megan calls it. I wanna tell Megan about my 'urges' I guess you could call them because I've been having them a lot lately! But I mean we have only been dating a month tomorrow, and she just proved her point that she thinks its too early for doing things like that, not that I really blame her though now that I think about it.
"Sooo...Jasper isn't that bad, right?" I say trying to get my mind off my 'urges'. I look over at Megan who seems to be in a daze.
"Megan?" I say tapping her shoulder. "Huh?" she says looking at me. "You alright? You seem kinda out of it tonight." I say getting concerned. I hope I didn't make her uncomfortable with what I said about the one month thing.
"Oh me, pshhh...no. I'm fine. W-what ever gave you that idea?" "Well I mean its just you've been kinda quiet and out of it since that talk about Taylor and Cat." "Oh...well I'm fine! Hey I'm gonna go get a drink from the kitchen, want anything?" she says getting off the bed. "No thanks I'm fine." "Alright, I'll be back in a minute." she says now walking out the door.
Jasper hopes off the bed and quickly follows behind her. "You're just asking to be put in the blender aren't you?" I hear her say down the hall. I laugh at that comment and then go back to thinking about why she is acting kinda strange now. I don't know what's up with her, but I do know I'm gonna get to the bottom of it.
