A few days later Robbie was released from the hospital but still told to stay at home to let the stitches in his stomach heal fully. Robbie would have been fine with that if his own personal nurse Tori didn't believe that making out could cause strain that could cause those stitches to tear. So instead of enjoying her company he just laid there catching up on what homework he could get done without moving around. Since Tori and everyone else was in school Robbie was sitting up in bed trying to figure out a difficult math problem, all around his room were signs that he had people that cared. A vase of flowers from Cat, with Beck adding a get well soon card, balloons from Andre, even a single black balloon from Jade with the words 'Glad you're not dead' which caused him to smirk every time he read it. Sighing he laid back on his bed and stared at the ceiling wishing that Rex was still around, he rocked at all things math. Rex was definitely gone for good, Robbie could feel that emptiness inside like he had when Trickster had banished everyone except more solid. Speaking of Trickster, last time they were in a meeting of the alters where he told no one to take over until his body had fully healed he had renamed Trickster, Travis who seemed fine with it. Pulling his laptop over her turned it on in order to check in on everyone, Cat had promised to wear her pear phone around her neck like a necklace in order to video cast Sikowitz's class to him.

Sending the message through the device he waited as it beeped and suddenly the image came on, a clear and close shot of a girl's chest, wearing a black top. It seemed that Cat had forgotten to turn off the phone while it hung around her neck and Robbie had auto launched it. Before he could click the window he paused hearing the two talk, mainly because he heard his own name.

"Robbie's already missed like a week worth of school, what if he falls behind?" asked Cat, "Then they wont let him graduate or anything."

"Come on Cat you need to stop talking about Robbie like that you sound like you have a crush on him," came the voice of Jade as she turned to go through her locker.

"I'm with Beck now Jade, eep don't hit me"

"Cat you know I'm so over Oliver so don't worry about things," pulling out a book and stuffing it into her bag.

"That's weird," said Cat softly.

"What?"

"Nothing really you just called Beck by his last name and Robbie by his first, that's so opposite then normal almost like you're the one with the crush."

Robbie muted the device knowing what Jade's answer was going to be, waited a few seconds then turned it back on to the pair moving into the closet and Jade actually crying.

"I'm just so confused Cat and I don't want to be that kind of person anymore, the gank that no one likes and I don't want people to think I like Robbie just because he's Tori's now."

"You always liked Matthew though."

"Yeah but when I was told he was hurt my thoughts went to Robbie not Matthew."

"Wasn't Matthew gone?"

"He was back I think, I don't know we should ask him."

"NO" she shrieked, "No one is going to know, Cat promise me."

"I promise"

Closing the window he sighed not knowing what to do with what he just learned, texting Cat asking for her to invite him to the chat he waiting, thinking on the realization. A beep on his computer brought him out of it and clicking on the window he was surprised not to see Cat but two windows with Travis and Matthew in them.

"Woah, I didn't think this was going to work, that's cool." muttered Travis as he sat back in his chair, "Hey Robbie what's up?"

"Is this real?"

"As real as it can be I guess," Matthew stated as a real beep sounded as a little window popped with Cat's smiling face in it, holding a can of peppy cola.

"Hi hi Robbie, good to see that you're wearing clothes this time," mused Cat getting laughter from Matthew, Travis and Cat.

"I was just not wearing a shirt, sorry."

"No it's okay Robbie, it looked like you had been working out."

"Well there's not much to do here in bed so I've been doing sit ups."

"She cant hear or see us Robbie so don't forget that and put us into the conversation," reminded Matthew.

"Jade want to see?" called Cat off screen only to have a hand shot into frame for a second and knock her soda onto the floor, "Hey"

"Let's just go to class Cat," came the annoyed voice of Jade and Cat nodded clicking out of video chat and into video only for Robbie. The phone was turned around and showed the gang around her including Beck and Andre. She hugged Beck and the screen went dark for a second. Typing out a message that went to Beck's phone he watched as the young man checked it out.

"Sorry about that Robbie," he replied after reading the message, "I forgot that Cat's wearing you today. Tori is with her sister, they are at a reading for some sort of commercial and wont be back until after school."

Feeling himself nod even though no one could see him he muted himself and sat back against his bed which was up in sitting position.

"How are things going with Tori?" asked Travis as they waited for class to begin, Robbie sighed.

"Great, wonderful even I cant wait to get back to school if just to hang out with her and everyone else."

"How's Jade?" asked Matthew.

"She's Jade I guess," said Robbie looking flustered thinking about what Jade had said that he shouldn't have heard, Matthew caught this.

"Why, what's wrong?"

"Nothing she's just tired from the whole ordeal of almost losing a friend."

"Doesn't she just tolerate you?" asked Travis getting a shake of the head from both Robbie and Matthew.

"Not since I let you guys back out, she was trying to be nicer because I let her see Matthew again."

"Well let Matthew back out, I wasn't bornish yet." replied Travis

"I don't think bornish is a word, in fact auto correct makes it into 'burnish'" commented Robbie as he turned his attention back to Sikowitz's class as he explained improv to the class. He noticed the camera shifting as Cat moved around him her chair, she was really bouncy today, maybe next time he'd ask Jade or even Beck to wear the phone because now he was looking at the far wall and Jade who didn't seem to be paying attention to Sikowitz at all, in face she was staring at an empty chair. Could that have been his? Eventually he was laughing with the others at the improv that Beck and Andre were putting on together and then the bell chimed.

Unmuting as the video changed from video only to chat instead of Cat being there it was Andre.

"Hey Robbie, Cat's letting us say hello instead of just letting you go for now. How are things going for you?"

"Hey Andre, as well as they can for being stuck in my room all day. But the doctor's say that I should be good to start class on Monday as long as I don't strain my stomach."

"Awesome, here's Becky" he said handing it off to Beck who took it smiling.

"Monday, that's awesome stunt class has been lonely without you man. Only three more days, or seventy two hours, or four thousand three hundred and twenty minutes or, wait let me think, uhh two hundred, fifty nine thousand, two hundred seconds."

"Calculator app?"

"Flushing a little bit Beck nodded handing the phone over to Jade."

"Don't die on us," she said flatly before handing the phone to Cat.

"Kay Kay Robbie I'll text you later, bye!" said Cat hanging up the phone.

Turning everything down including his alter's windows Robbie sighed and pushed the button to get the bed to lay down all the way. Closing his eyes he exhaled a deep breath.

"Don't do that," came Travis' voice from the chair he was sitting.

"Do what?"

"Take something out of context. Jade likes Matthew, he's a part of you this you think she likes you."

"That's what she said,"

"Doesn't matter, Tori loves you, she accepts you"

"So does Jade"

"Not really, Cat cares more then Jade, Jade just uses you, used you. I don't want you to get all depressed on me for that though we cant afford another darkness moment. You've got something special with Tori, don't screw that up because you're confused."

"I miss Rex"

"We all do but you don't need him anymore, you've overcome it and one day you will over come all of us."

"What if I don't want to be alone?" Robbie asked looking up and seeing an empty chair. Shaking his head he laid back to try to go to sleep.

"Fruity Crunchy bits are yum yum," said Trina with a big fake smile, "It's a cereal that I'd even share with my little sister," she made as to pour some for her sister who was smiling and sitting next to her. Once they both had a bowl of cereal they each took a big spoonful and ate it up. "Yum" they said together. The director loved how they acted together, like real sisters, after the camera was off that was and that was exactly what she wanted, real sisters. Proclaiming them to be the pair that were going to be used she gave them scripts and let them go home.

Acting professional both sisters thanked them and made their way out to the parking lot. Once they were safe in Trina's car both girls exploded in joy.

"I cant believe we both got that part," exclaimed Tori but Trina just waved it off.

"Of course I got it, I'm amazing but I'm happy for you Tori." Tori just shook her head and updated her Slap Page.

Tori Vega - OMG Trina and I just got cast in the new Fruity Crunchy Bit commercial as sisters, who would have guessed it. Mood - Extremely Happy

The next three days were a fun blur, weekend plans included Cat and Beck dates, study sessions with Robbie, Andre and Cat, dog sitting with Cat and Jade and of course Tori, Trina and Robbie running lines together. Robbie was really happy for Tori, even though she was spending less and less time with him. He just figured that meant she was concentrating on her role and wanted to nail it so he was content watching his girlfriend get into her sister's car and driving off to their house. Moving carefully back into his house after closing the door Robbie was planning on heading upstairs to work on his creative writing assignment when his doorbell rang. Groaning he turned back feeling the stitches in his stomach pull and tense, pulling the door open he expected to see one of the Vega sisters stating they forgot something but was surprised to see Jade instead.

"Uhh hi, what are you doing here?"

"Can't a friend visit a friend without ulterior motives?" smirked Jade pushing pass him into his house as he closed the door behind her.

"That is true except we're not that close, in fact this will probably be one of the few times you actually refer to me as a friend," he remarked, "Or are you looking for someone else?"

"No Rob I'm here to check up on you," she said sitting down on his couch, "well aren't you going to offer me a drink or anything?"

"Oh yeah, do you want a drink"

"No"

"No? Then why did you ask me?"

"Because that's what a host does. Now don't think I want to check you out or anything but I want to see the scar."

Cocking an eyebrow at her he walked over standing next to her.

"I heard you once wanted some of Tori's blood and a scraping that was removed from taxi driver's back, so no it's not that weird." Slowly lifting up his shirt to reveal his stomach Jade had to bite her lip, all those crunches that Cat told her about were paying off. Robbie assumed it was the sight of the scar that was almost healed but still visible, three inches where he had stabbed himself with a sharp rock. He closed his eyes as Jade traced her finger tips across his abs and the cut in them. She lingered for a little bit before she felt a hand wrap around her wrist, looking up she saw someone else in Robbie's eyes as he pushed down his shirt.

"Robbie?" she started

"Nope, and not your Matthew either. I go by Travis now but used to be known as Trickster. You probably shouldn't be doing that you know Robbie's with Tori now and that could seem like you just really hate her to be trying something with her boyfriend."

Frowning and turned away from him she crossed her arms over her chest.

"I don't hate Tori, not right now at least and I don't know what you're talking about Travis I just have a thing for Robbie," she got flustered, "I mean I don't have a thing for him, gawd I just like macabre things."

"What now Jade?"

"Huh?"

"Well what was your next step in this grand scheme of things? Feel up Robbie's stomach until he took your chin and lifted your head to meet his, the intense passion in each others eyes."

"Stop it," she demanded fighting back a blush, "You're sounding like a Midnight novel. I just wanted to see that Robbie wasn't dead yet and then I was going home so tell Robbie I said goodbye," with that she stormed out of his house. A small smile on Travis' lips remained as he heard her peel out, it was a long time since he's messed with someone like that, man did he miss it. Heading upstairs he sat down on the bed and flipped open the computer, opening the Slap and memo pad. Quickly catching Robbie up that Jade had come over to check out his scar before leaving he closed his eyes and let Robbie take over. Reading the note he deleted and read the status updates before adding his own.

Cat Valentine - So ready to turn in my project tomorrow. Mood - Ready

Tori Vega - So tired of eating FCB but we have to eat a spoonful every take, Trina's doing a pretty good job too, missing half of school tomorrow to get it wrapped up. Mood - Full

Robbie Shapiro - Done with laying in bed, ready for school tomorrow. Mood - Excited
