Jade
Upset was the word Jade was looking for. She had her heart's wound opened up by Beck and now, as she feared, with his back turned she headed to Tori's house. It was all too weird for Jade. She barely remembered a time this week she spent at home. Well, whatever. She didn't miss it at all.
She barged inside, Tori's family was having breakfast and she realized that she was only in a pair of jeans and some sweats. Awkward was right. A blush crept on her face as the family invited her to eat with them. She politely declined seeing how she already overstepped her boundaries and waited for Tori in her room.
Tori
Tori sat with her family happily eating breakfast. It was a rarity in the Vega household for the four of them to have meals at the same time; if their parents weren't away, then either Tori or Trina would be staying round a friend's house or they were just never in the house at the same time as each other in order to have a family meal, so this was nice.
Or, it would've been nice, if Tori weren't in such a mood.
She'd had an alright night, finishing up different homework projects, chatting with friends over the internet and generally being a teenage. She'd been distracted pretty much the whole time, but that didn't stop her thoughts always straying back to Jade whenever the half-Latina spotted something that reminded her of the girl: Jade's profile on theslap, the little toy puppy, her bed…
But Jade hadn't been in contact with her since she left to see Beck. Tori understood that she'd want to spend time with her- she almost cringed at the word- boyfriend, and she had no real right to feel jealous, but the feeling wouldn't go away.
She'd just switched off her laptop and was planning to go sleep when a message alert flashed up on the screen of her PearPhone saying Jade had posted an update on her profile. Curiously, Tori used an app on her phone to check what the girl had been up to, but soon wished she didn't.
I went over to this guy's place and he ended up fucking me on his bed.
Tori didn't want to know. She'd spent the day trying not to think about what Beck and Jade could possibly be doing and seeing proof that it happened, well, she didn't know how to feel about it. She should've expected it, but truthfully, it made her feel sick.
So now the youngest Vega sat at the kitchen table, mechanically shoving spoonful's of cereal into her mouth and almost choked on the flakes when the girl who plagued her mind came bursting in.
"Jade." She greeted five minutes later after purposely stalling her breakfast to avoid the girl.
Jade
"I'll be in your room," Jade said awkwardly as the other members of the Vega household stared at her. She looked at each one of them and greeted them with a kind nod, save for Trina whom she glared at. She moved up to Tori's room and stripped off her sweats and jeans. She knew Tori didn't mind if she used some of her clothes. She practically lived here anyway.
After getting out of the shower, Tori was inside the room with a less than pleasant face on. Jade didn't feel naughty. Not after a night with Beck—because if she did, she'd purposely drop her towel to make Tori cringe or just to annoy her. She got dressed and sat next to Tori, not really knowing what to say.
Tori
Tori shifted slightly away from Jade when the pale girl sat next to her on the bed. She continued with the game on her phone she had been playing while waiting for Jade to come back to her room, purposely not bothering to speak; she didn't know what to say.
Part of her wanted to scream at Jade. That stupid, nagging voice at the back of her head kept telling her to do so, that she had been cheated by the girl and that Jade deserved to be kicked out for it. But Tori knew that wasn't the truth. Beck was Jade's boyfriend, she was just the bit on the side and she had no right whatsoever to be angry.
She ended the game quickly, having lost due to lack of concentration, and chucked the phone carelessly onto her desk before turning to face Jade for the first time since they sat together on the bed. The goth was staring fixedly at the floor and Tori couldn't work out what the look on her face was. It seemed Jade was trying to fix her usual blank mask back on, but there was some emotion seeping through, something that almost looked like guilt, but Tori thought she was just imagining it.
"So, have a good time with Beck?" The Latina asked, failing to keep the bitterness out of ther voice.
Jade
Jade shuffled her hands in the middle of her stomach and twiddled her thumbs. Beck warned her that things she posted online weren't as private as she thought they were but then again she was too caught up in the moment to think during that time. So that's how Tori knew and that's why she was speechless.
"Tori," Jade faced the Latina, wanting to explain even though she didn't have to at all. She uncurled her fingers and tried to reach out for her hand but she hesitated at the last minute and ended up looking at her eyes, searching for a sign that it was okay.
Tori
Tori inched her hand away as Jade reached out for it. She brought the appendage into her lap and linked her fingers together to stop herself from reaching back for Jade's; she didn't want to be touched by the girl, not right now. She stared down at her clasped hands, refusing to meet Jade's eye in fear that the tears she could feel building would fall if she looked into the pools of green. It annoyed her how easily Jade could bring her to tears now, something that used to be a difficult task to achieve from the Latina, but here she was now, so close to crying the second time in just a few days.
"Don't." She said quietly.
Jade moved a little closer and Tori shifted away again. She shouldn't be angry at Jade, but she couldn't help it. Everything that had happen up to now felt like a fantasy and just a few little words had brought the reality of the situation crashing down around the brunette. Jade was Becks. She'd always been Becks. And Beck was hers. Not Tori, Beck. She shook her head a little and turned to gaze out the window instead, still unable to look at the pale girl beside her.
"You probably shouldn't be here. Especially not with Trina around."
Jade
Jade looked down and decided to shift her feet up on the bed since Tori wasn't there anyway. "I just want to talk," Jade pleaded, "..please." Jade said. In truth, she just wanted to hold her in her arms kiss her hard. Fiercely. "I know that's probably not fair or something but Tori, you can't be mad at me."
Jade moved on her knees to grip Tori's foot board. She was tired and she didn't want to argue. She just wanted to feel Tori's body next to hers. "But look, if you want me to go then there's no problem there either. Jade shifted to sit on the edge of the bed again and slipped on her slippers she brought from Beck's. She gripped the mattress and pulled herself together. She couldn't cry, not anymore.
Tori
"Don't go!" Tori said quickly, before she could stop herself. She hated how desperate and needy in sounded, but, no matter how horrible she felt, she didn't want Jade to leave.
Tori sighed and held her head in her hand, running her fingers through her hair in frustration. She vaguely wondered if Jade hadn't kissed her at the carnival, would she be feeling this way? Would she have realized what the acceptance she had craved from the girl since day one really meant? Or would she be as oblivious to it as she was before? At least then it didn't hurt. Well, not as much.
"Look. I know I have no right to mad at you. Beck's your boyfriend, I get it." She swallowed, her voice slightly muffled by her palms. "But I can't help it. I can't help the way I feel."
She brought her hands away from her face and turned to look at Jade, catching the pale girl's eyes. Tori wrapped her arms around her body as if it would help stop the dam in her chest from breaking and spilling tears down her cheeks.
Jade
"How do you feel, Vega?" Jade asked nonchalantly, as if she hadn't already known. Tori looked at her with her puppy dog eyes and Jade just wanted to scoop her up and drag her to the bed. She sat on the edge of the bed again, patting the seat down next to her, ordering Tori to sit.
"We could just talk if you don't want to do anything with Trina around," Jade offered. "Talk," Jade said again, hoping Tori would agree. She didn't know how she felt—maybe she did—or if her feelings for Tori were as strong as Tori's. She just wanted to feel her skin on hers. Was it too much to ask?
Tori
"We can… talk" Tori agreed hesitantly. She wasn't sure if she wanted to talk, she wasn't sure what she wanted to say, but Tori still took a seat beside the pale girl. She couldn't stop herself from collapsing next to Jade and resting her head on her shoulder, a small comfort.
"So talk," Tori repeated, not willing herself to say anymore. If she opened her mouth again, everything would come spilling out. All of her confusion and anger and heartache would burst through in the form of words and Tori was afraid of what those words would be. So, instead, she looked up at Jade from the position on her shoulder and hoped the dark haired girl would say something first.
Jade
Jade moved both of them to the center of Tori's bed, dragging the girl by her shoulders. She slipped her left hand as it snaked around her waist and Tori leaned in closer to her shoulder. Jade wanted to kiss her then, but it was wrong considering her family was around. In fact, this was wrong already—holding Tori this way—but Jade couldn't help it.
"I spoke to Lane." Jade began, speaking into her hair and kissing it after. Her free hand began weaving her fingers into her hair as she thought about what else to say. She really didn't know if she wanted to tell Tori about what he said about keeping them both or having a crazy Vicky Barcelona fantasy. "I told him, about... everything." She admitted. "Well, I didn't tell him about you. He kinda already knew." Jade huffed and wished Tori would meet her eyes.
Tori
Tori sat up straighter, turning to face Jade in panic.
"He- he already knew!" She stammered. "B-but how!"
If he knew, who else knew? Trina definitely did, but Tori didn't think she'd tell Lane. Then there was Andre. Tori was still unsure if he actually knew, but if he did, would he tell Lane when he went to the meeting before? And then there was Cat. She had to know and she was always in meetings with the guidance counselor… Tori's mind was racing again.
"W-what do you mean, you told him everything?" She added as she tried to calm herself down.
Jade
"I asked him about what to do with this. I mean, I couldn't keep it in for long, Tori." Jade defended her actions, "I needed help and Lane was the only person I knew I could talk to." She said, wrapping the girl tighter in her arms. "I'm sorry; I should've talked to you about it first, but…" She pulled Tori closer to her, just wanting to hold her tighter.
"Are you mad?" Jade asked. A few weeks ago, she really wouldn't care if the younger Vega was mad at her, but now it was all she seemed to care about. Her heartbeat accelerated at Tori's silence, but she just needed to know if they were okay.
Tori
Tori snuggled up closer in Jades embrace, resting her head against her chest, listening to the pale girls heartbeat. It was soothing, in a way; Tori closed her eyes and allowed the steady rhythm to drive the anger and upset from her mind. The brunette wrapped an arm around Jade's waist pulling her closer still, and then finally looked up into her eyes.
"I'm not mad." The Latina said quietly. "I understand. It's all confusing and you needed someone to talk to. At least you made a smart move and spoke to Lane rather than turning to your blabbermouth sister for help."
Tori gave a small, guilty smile. "And I'm sorry for the way I reacted. I was being stupid."
Tori sighed and pushed herself up a little so she could give Jade a quick kiss on the corner of her mouth. "I'm sorry."
Jade
Jade cupped Tori's cheek as her thumb glided on her cheekbones made of perfection. "Do you want to do this, here?" Jade moved her face closer to meet Tori's, noses touching. "Now?" Jade stared at Tori's eyes and it shifted from the door to her again.
Jade slipped her tongue inside Tori's mouth unexpectedly. Pushing the girl's hips closer to her own. She wasn't invited. Not at all, but she forced her way in and Tori didn't hesitate at all. The Latina's hands moved to Jade's hair and pulled it hard that it hurt Jade just a little. It was mind blowing, and it was only making out.
She wished she felt this way for Beck so things would be back to normal, but it's the last thing she wanted right now, because all thoughts were consumed by Tori Vega.
Tori
All of Tori's bad feelings melted away in seconds. The way Jade was kissing her, it felt like nothing else in the word mattered, and the brunette kissed back with just as much passion. Her hands wound into Jade's dark hair, gripping tightly as their tongues fought for dominance and Jade was pulling on her hips, tugging her as close as the Latina could possible get. They pulled away for breath and Tori wished they didn't have to, she could've stayed in that embrace forever. Jade started trailing kisses over the tan girls jaw line causing Tori to shudder at the touch, her hands lightly running from the tattooed girls hair, down her back, to play with the hem of her shirt.
"Trina wouldn't dare come near my room, not with you here." She said with a smirk and felt Jade's soft laugh as the girl mouth made its way from her jaw to her neck. Tori loved the sound and the feeling, it was beyond beautiful.
Her hands moved to under Jades shirt, her fingertips tickling at the pale skin beneath just so she could hear Jades giggle again, breathless and happy, and a sound she never thought she'd hear from the girl, let alone be the cause of. She nudged the Goth's head from her neck using her shoulder so she could capture her lips in another sweet kiss.
Jade
"Getting what you want, Vega?" Jade asked between kisses. She noticed Tori's eagerness and want to push forward since it was usually her with that tremendous amount of force. Her fingers trailed to the sides of Tori's body and rattled under her clothes. She wasn't supposed to have clothes on, really. It was offensive to Jade as the paler girl yanked her top off without Tori even knowing or wondering. She was just glad it was gone because Jade's hands expertly explored Tori's body—her temple—and it all belonged to Jade.
Jade kissed her roughly while her hands made their way to her breasts, squeezing them and earning a soft moan from the Latina with other set of sounds Jade loved like breathy 'yeses' and 'don't stops'—it all consumed Jade to move further and pin Tori down on her bed with a sort of growl. "You're mine," Jade breathed in her neck, biting down as she said it. "All mine."
Tori
Tori gave another moan in response, squeezing her eyes shut and reveling in Jades touch; she didn't know how she lived without this before. She dug her fingernails into the Goth's shoulders as Jade bit down at her neck, earning a small, muffled groan from the other girl. Tori's hands slipped down her back again until they reached the hem of Jade's shirt and she roughly pulled the material over Jade's head, throwing it onto the floor with her already discarded top as their lips found each other's again in yet another heated kiss.
Tori smirked as they pulled apart and began to trail little kisses over Jade's jaw and neck, reaching the spot just under her ear where she began to suck and bite just as the pale girl had done to her.
"You like that, Jade?" She said in a breathless giggle as Jade tried to stifle a moan at the sensation.
Jade
"Don't leave…" Jade was about to tell her not to leave any hickeys for Beck to see but she decided that it probably wasn't the best idea given the circumstances. "God, Vega." The paler girl threw her head back and closed her eyes in satisfaction. She loved how Tori made her feel and she loved how easy it was to slip into this comfort. She had to admit she loved—
—shit.
No. No. No! She did not love Tori Vega. No. Not in hell not in a million years. How did this happen and why was the realization dawning on her now? No. It couldn't. It shouldn't. It was terrifying but at the same time it's all she knew. It's all she wanted at the moment and dear God; it's what she was getting now.
She decided to disregard all her thoughts and continue on ravishing the younger Vega. Her hands found their way to the center of her stomach and continually teased Tori until she's had enough to pull down her pajama pants. "Not so loud," She whispered seductively while grazing the bare skin of Tori's neck.
Tori
Tori buried her face into the crook of Jades neck to mute the uncontrollable sounds issuing from her at just the slightest touch from the other girl. She wasn't thinking; she didn't want to think, just live in the moment and enjoy the feel of Jade's skin on hers, her fingers, her lips, it was all too good. If she thought, she'd be reminded of how this wasn't really hers, how she had to share it with Beck, and that was something she didn't want to be reminded of.
"Jade!" She gasped sharpily as the girls teeth sank into her skin again, leaving yet another mark along with the many that already littered her neck.
She felt Jade smirk before continuing her assault and Tori took this opportunity to quickly unhook the Goth's bra. Jade sat up, still straddling Tori's waist, to remove the offending item of clothing and toss it onto the floor with the rest. Tori followed suit, pushing herself up with her elbows so she was level with Jade's chest. She took one breast in her hand, squeezing it slightly then running her thumb over the pale girls nipple before taking it in her mouth, sucking and biting lightly at the skin. Jade had to cover her mouth to muffle the moan that escaped her, but that only fueled Tori to want to make Jade make more noises just like that.
Jade
Jade realized that before she'd insert her fingers into Tori's center, she'd always have to scratch the surface of the tanner girl's stomach and kiss down on the part she'd just marked down red. She loved the way Tori screamed when Jade kissed the bottom of her belly button and how Jade's tongue moved up from here to take in one of Tori's nipples, reciprocating said action with Tori—except this time—Jade was a lot more… prone to biting.
The sounds Tori made set Jade off and immediately she inserted a finger to Tori's center. God, she missed the familiarity of Tori's body on hers. She desperately tried to make this last as she teased her hand in with an extra slowness in motion, making Tori cringe and hold on tighter to Jade as her moans grew increasingly in volume. It was all sweet nothings to Jade as she whispered back questions and small talk that made her heart explode. "Do you like," Jade was out breath, "that, Vega?" She huffed, smiling as she pressed a soft kiss at the center of Tori's neck.
Tori
"Ye-yes!" Tori stammered back.
She was having difficulty keeping the noises she made quiet. Each scream and moan and groan increased in volume the longer Jades fingers worked inside her. Her hips bucked uncontrollably to meet Jades causing the Latina let out a cry at the contact and she had to bite down aggressively at Jades shoulder to cut off the sound, hoping that her parents were still downstairs and oblivious to everything their youngest daughter was currently doing.
In the back of her mind, she vaguely wondered what Trina would do when they saw each other later. Would her sister confront her about it, or just avoid it? But she couldn't dwell on that now.
Jade's fingers pushed deeper into her center and the brunettes groans started to turn into whimpers. The sensations of everything was becoming overwhelming, the kissing, the biting, the sucking, and Tori could feel herself being brought over the edge again.
"JADE!" She gasped again, digging her fingernails even harder into the pale skin.
Jade
Jade was growing tired and breathless but she needed more and more from Tori. More since she was going to talk to her about what Lane had just suggested. More because Tori needed to understand that she was doing this for both of them and she would only do this with her if she had met her before she met Beck. If she had fallen in love with her before she had fallen in love with Beck.
Suddenly there were tears in her eyes and it streamed down guiltily at the thought of the boyfriend she cheated on once again. It pained her, but the resulting pleasure from Tori whimpering underneath her seemed to be a worthy cause. She loved the feeling and she was going to make it last. "Tori, unph…" One of Jade's eyes shut involuntarily as her mouth was pressed to hers again, tongues once again dancing in the fires of their heated trysts.
"Tori, God," Jade began as she pinned the younger Vega down harder, "you make me so.." she kissed Tori roughly once more and let out a few more hot tears. "so, alive."
Tori
Tori could barely make a noise to respond, so instead, she cupped Jade's cheeks, bringing her down so their lips met in yet another heated kiss, her fingers gripping tightly into the dark hair as everything became too much. She could feel the girls tears and wondered what had caused them, but her minded suddenly blanked, and Tori's scream was muted easily by Jades mouth as she bit down at the Goth's bottom lip. She released Jade from her grasp, collapsing back on to the bed and panting heavily. A lazy smile played across her lips while she steadied her breathing and Tori reached up to wipe a falling tear from Jade's cheek with her thumb.
Tori pushed herself back onto her elbows to give Jade's swollen lips a quick kiss.
"What's wrong?" She asked in a soft, slightly hoarse, voice.
Jade
"Nothing," Jade replied, "Nothing at all." She slid her fingers out and pressed her hand on the back of Tori's neck, pulling the girl's face closer to hers. Sweet kisses filled her mind as Tori's tongue traced her lips and her teeth. She was so eager and she wanted everything at once but she let Tori pin her down this time. The girl wasn't strong but she didn't give any counteracting force.
"Tori," Jade moaned as the younger Vega pressed harder as she dipped deeper on her bed. Tori's bed. She also realized that they had only had sex in Tori's bed and not her own, and that they should make it a point to visit her house soon. Where her walls are soundproof and her parents are usually gone. She smiled at the thought. "I have an idea," Jade said aloud, thinking about the weekend trip her father has to Bangkok this weekend and how her mother has her "Weekend Spa Retreats" which was practically code for having sex with other men.
Jade didn't want to judge, I mean, hello.
The only problem now was Isabella West. "Why don't you stay over this weekend?" She smiled into Tori's lips.
Tori
"I like that idea" Tori murmured against Jade's jaw as she planted kisses over her soft skin again.
She continued to slowly kiss down the pale girls body, enjoying the small sense of being in control as Jade sighed at her touch. Jade had never let her have control for long, if at all; this was all so different and nerve wracking for Tori, all of this was. Her kisses reached the top of the Goth's trousers, where she hesitated, looking nervously up into the green eyes. Her fingers shook slightly as she carefully undid the button of the borrowed jeans, slipping the fabric off her pale legs, dropping them to the floor on top of the ever growing pile of clothes.
Tori crawled back up to capture Jades lips again, wishing that the nerves that ran through her then would go away. She pulled back to look at Jade unsurely, almost asking for permission to continue.
Jade
"God, you're such a tease," Jade pushed Tori back down, pinning her so the roles were reversed again. She loved giving Tori some of the control, she knew she was going to give it back some time soon. She whispered, "why can't you pull through with it?" She smiled in the crook of Tori's neck and in a few seconds, Tori pushed her down again.
Jade stared intently into Tori's eyes. Looking for an answer she wanted from the beginning. What was this? What were they? She was about to speak when Tori claimed her neck with her lips and her soft flesh with her teeth. God that felt so good. Jade moaned and threw her head back in the rush. It was the most exciting thing she'd felt all day. "God, Tori." Jade screamed, Tori's hand immediately covering her mouth.
Tori
Tori smirked, loving the sound of her name being screamed from the paler girl, but her family was still in the house and she couldn't risk them hearing anything, not again.
"Shush" She said in a whisper, pressing just a finger lightly to Jades lips now. She proceeded to drag her finger leisurely over Jade's chin, her neck, down the valley between her breasts, enjoying seeing her squirm at the too light touch. She circled the girls bellybutton teasingly before hooking her finger under the edge of the tattooed girl's underwear and roughly pulled the offending material away, disposing of it on the floor.
Tori felt the nerves come flooding back, but tried not to let them show. She'd never done this before, only ever letting Jade take her, but she had gone too far to chicken out now. She maneuvered herself to straddle Jade's hips, leaning forward to kiss her already swollen lips while simultaneously slipping two fingers into Jade's wet center.
Jade
It was Tori's first time and Jade felt so good. She threw her head back deeper and rested her elbows on the mattress. She couldn't grab a hold of anything and her hands kept moving. Soon she found Tori's hair and almost yanked it off her scalp. "So good," she mimicked Beck's words. "Oh God," Jade's fingers moved to the back of Tori's neck and grabbed the base of her hairline there. She was screaming harder and harder and had to bite down on Tori's neck to muffle the noises she made.
Tori stroked her harder and harder and tears began welling up her eyes once again. "Tori, God." was all Jade could say and she could feel Tori smile on her pale skin.
Tori
Tori felt her confidence growing at every sound Jade made; knowing she was the cause of the girls pleasure was an overwhelming feeling and just made her move her fingers faster and faster inside Jade. Soon her own gasps and moans mixed in as Jade pulled harshly at her hair, the sensation surprisingly more pleasurable than painful. Tori slipped her other hand under the Goth's head, gripping her hair and dragging her roughly upwards and capturing her mouth once again, muffling both of their screams with her tongue.
"Jade!" Tori hissed quietly against her lips, as the paler girl's fingers fell from her hair to dig her nails into her shoulder blades.
Jade
"You can't," Jade said breathlessly, "You can't stop," It was a painful pleasure but Jade had always loved pain more. "You can't stop now!" Jade screamed and both girls climaxed. Tori collapsed on Jade's body and soon enough they were breathing breathlessly under the covers Jade expertly pulled as she arched her back when Tori collapsed.
"God, Vega." Jade kissed Tori's temple and wrapped her arms around her, pulling her closer. "Just… God." Jade brought her finger to Tori's chin and brought her lips to hers. Bittersweet.
Tori
Tori kissed Jade back softly, and then lay her head on Jades chest, listening to the drumming sound of her heartbeat again. She began to draw small circles over the pale skin, closing her eyes and smiling lazily to herself, planting a couple of small kisses where her finger was making the spiraling patterns.
This felt good, too good. Tori just wanted to capture this moment and relive it forever, but she knew that would never happen. There was still Beck. That niggling feeling came back in the pit of the Latinas stomach, a mixture of guilt and jealousy. It was horrible, and she wished it would go away, leave her to enjoy being snuggled up this close to Jade. But she needed to know where she stood.
"Jade?" Tori questioned quietly, not quite sure what to say, yet desperate for an answer. Jade gave her an equally lazy smile and nodded to show she was listening. The brunette took a deep breath before continuing, just letting the words fall from her without wanting to think about it.
"What's going on? Between you and me. And you and Beck? I- I just need to know."
She turned away from Jade, fearing whatever the girl would say next, trying to prepare herself for the possible heartbreak that followed. Tori realized she was already falling too fast and she wasn't sure if she was ready for the impact.
Jade
Jade would usually crumble in the wind and push her away at this time. But no. She got all she wanted from Lane and she should talk about it now. "I don't know if it sounds silly to you," Jade said, it was silly and you can't move around it at all. "but when I spoke to Lane… he couldn't quite give me a definite answer."
Tori shifted and set her eyes to Jade. The paler girl kissed her forehead. "Please work with me on this one and tell me what you think, okay?" Jade moved her hands around Tori's waist and dragged the girl higher. Their chests met and heaved and Jade kissed her lips softly, closing her eyes, relishing everything. "All right," Jade pulled away, only to be met by Tori's soft peck on the lips. "He thinks I should keep you both, with you two knowing." She whispered, drawing a lazy circle above Tori's butt. "Not just you."
Tori
Tori pulled away from Jade a little, feeling a small sting at the words. The selfish side of the Latina was screaming no! She didn't want to share! It was hard enough as it was. But that wasn't fair on Beck. The two of them had been together for years, and Tori could tell just by looking at the guy that he loved Jade. But, then again, was this fair on him? Was it fair on any of them?
"You haven't spoken to Beck about this yet, have you?" Tori asked, already knowing the answer before Jade shook her head. "I-"
Tori hesitated and sighed. All she wanted was Jade, and she was already sharing her. As much as it hurt not to be able to call the girl her own, the brunette realized she'd do anything to keep her. If Tori said no, then Jade could easily just walk back into Becks arms and pretend like this never happened. But this, it may be the only answer.
"Ask him about it first" Tori said quietly, resting her head back onto Jade's shoulder. "Do you think he'll be alright with it?"
Jade
"No, I don't think so," Jade kept kissing her temple like this was her last. "Don't you like the idea? I mean, I understand if don't it's just…" Tori looked at Jade with her eyebrows furrowed. "I mean," Jade looked away and Tori just leaned in closer to the paler girl's neck. "Tori…" Jade began.
Jade pulled the tan girl to her face, lips tracing her own softly, as if for the first time. She licked Tori's lips and her hands explored her body once again. Softly, ghostly, like a flicker then it's gone. Tori pulled away with hurt in her eyes as she closed them. She obviously didn't want this. She obviously wanted Jade to herself. "Believe me," Jade kissed her neck. "I want you." Her collar bone. "I do."
Tori
"But you want Beck, too." Tori said softly.
The Latina pulled away from Jade completely, sitting up on her bed and hugging her knees to her chest. The selfish side was taking over, and it hurt. It hurt a hell of a lot. The more she thought about it, the more she wanted Jade to end it with Beck and be hers, just hers, no one else's. Jade crawled up into a seated position by her side and wrapped her arms around Tori's slim frame, bringing her as close as humanly possible while continuing to litter her forehead with soft kisses. Tori fought back against the sting in her eyes, but couldn't stop the sniff that escaped her and shook her body.
"I want you, Jade." The brunette said ever so quietly, barely above a whisper, muffled slightly as she pressed a kiss to the Goth's shoulder. "I just want you."
She hated how weak she sounded, how desperate and needy, but it was true. Tori Vega had fallen hard, and she didn't know how she was going to get out of this without someone being hurt along the way, that someone being either her, or Beck, or maybe even Jade, and she didn't want it to be that way.
Jade
"You can have me, Tori." Jade closed her eyes and pulled away. She hated doing that. Tough love. She hated it so much. "But, I'm sorry. I just…" She looked at the tanner girl as she sat on the edge of the bed, thinking of her next move. She sighed and ran a hand through her dark hair and scooped her jeans on the floor before anyone else came in and saw them naked. Not that she cared or anything, but she didn't want Tori to be disowned in her own home.
She changed the subject, "So what time am I picking you up on Friday?" Jade asked, then proceeding to pick up her and Tori's shirt and threw the latter item to the Latina. "As much as I love you with your clothes off, I think you should throw this on." Jade croaked at the second half of the sentence. What the bloody hell? Did she just subconsciously tell Tori Vega that she loved her? Shit. This was bad. Jade couldn't afford to panic, so she straightened out her collar—which seemed to be choking her—and faced the Latina.
Tori
Tori pulled the shirt over her head before getting off the bed in search for a pair of jeans. The two girls dressed in silence; Tori trying to suppress the forbidding feeling that crawled its way into the pit of her stomach along with the guilt, the jealousy and every other horrible emotion the Latina could think of.
"Um, I dunno. Whenever you want?" Tori shrugged. She finally turned to face the pale girl, leaning back against her desk and running a hand through her tangled hair. Jade stood facing her with her hands shoved deep into the pockets of a pair of Tori's jeans, but her eyes stared absently at a spot just above the brunettes shoulder, unable to look straight at her. Tori crossed her left leg over her right and began tapping her foot restlessly against the wooden draw behind her.
"Are you sure it's a good idea?" She asked, her fingers stroking her hair away from her face again. "Shouldn't you, I dunno, spend the weekend with Beck or something, rather than me?"
She crossed her arms over her chest tightly, hoping the hurt she felt didn't show in her voice. Dammit! Why did she have to feel this way! Life was so much easier when Jade spent her time tormenting her.
Jade
"Look, I didn't even tell Beck about me spending the weekend freely but if you think I should spend more time with Beck over the weekend, then maybe I should." Jade screamed irrationally. She was sick and tired of Tori mentioning Beck's name over and over like a broken record.
She suddenly wished she was anywhere but here. Tori was choking her—it was evident that Tori wanted them to break up—but Jade couldn't let that happen. Not now. She wasn't ready.
The fiery rage in her heart grew as she spoke. She also didn't look at the Latina because she knew that once she catches sight of her, the anger would dissipate and she'd apologize. She didn't want to see Tori hurt but she needed to give her some tough love right now so she could get the end of her bargain.
Tori
"Yeah, maybe you should!" Tori spat back, pushing herself away from the desk to pace the room.
She wasn't sure who she was more angry at: Jade or herself. If she wanted to play the blame game, then Jade would be the one she'd pin it on, for kissing her at the carnival and starting all of this. Tori was happier being oblivious to these feelings, but now she couldn't escape them no matter how hard she tried to push them away… if she did want to push them away.
She ran her hand through her hair for the umpteenth time; this was all so, so confusing. There were times, like now, that she felt so annoyed about the situation she'd gotten herself into and couldn't help but think it was best to end it there and then. Then there were times where she wanted nothing else, just to have Jade hold her in her arms and kiss her.
She huffed out a sigh. Why couldn't she be happy with what they were already doing? She'd coped so far, and if Beck knew and agreed with it, which she doubted, then everything would be easier. But her heart was too selfish to share.
Tori stopped her pacing and turned on her heel to face Jade, who still wasn't looking in her direction, which only fueled her anger further.
"Who will you choose if Beck says he doesn't agree?" The Latina asked before she could stop herself, and she would bet on the answer being Beck, if she got an answer at all.
Jade
Jade looked away. She was angry too and the tension was just getting thicker and thicker as time passed by. She swallowed a thick lump in her throat before facing Tori with the saddest of eyes. It had a sting in them she couldn't control. It felt so weird knowing that you were about to cry, yet unsure of all the reasons. It was really weird.
"He's going to agree with this and you should too!" Jade snapped, standing up to face her with her index finger extended out close to Tori's face. It was filled with tension, all right and as soon as she let the anger go, the muscles in her relaxed and she was finally able to look in Tori's eyes. Her soft, brown eyes.
One thing that Tori didn't know was at that moment, Jade was also extremely hurt. She was hurt that Tori kept thinking about the consequences with Beck when they were together. "God damn it, Tori." Jade rolled her eyes and extended her arms above her head. "You're unbelievable!" The rage was back. Jade was such a girl.
Tori
"I'm unbelievable!" The Latina shouted with a hint of a laugh, even though she didn't find the situation funny at all. "I'm not the one cheating on my boyfriend!"
Tori threw her arms into the arm and stomped a foot on the floor, like a little kid throwing a tantrum over not getting the toy they wanted their parents to buy for them. She wasn't looking at Jade now, the second the paler girl had looked up at her she'd turned away; it hurt too much to look at her.
"Okay, so maybe I haven't been a saint." Tori added. She remembered the time she'd kissed Danny while he was with Cat. She'd felt so guilty about what she'd done, and it was just a kiss. Did Jade really not feel any guilt about this?
She didn't know how to continue, so she threw herself onto the bed again, dangling her legs over the edge as she tried to calm down.
"I'm sorry." Tori muttered eventually. "I just, I don't know. This is all too crazy and I don't know how to deal with it."
Jade
Jade looked at her, suddenly her insides were melting and she used to hate this feeling and always seemed to reject it, but now it felt nice. She gave it a chance and sat at the edge of the bed next to Tori, her fingers brushing on her thigh. Silence. Jade leaned in closer and kissed Tori's cheek, lips lingering on her skin longer than anyone would expect.
"I'm selfish, Vega." Jade remained in vicinity, eyes still closed shut. "But I am sorry too," Jade leaned in, their foreheads touching as she pushed her gently on the bed so Jade towered over her and straddled her hips with ease. The paler girl traced Tori's face with the tip of her nose and stopped at her ear, "because I can't give you what you want." With that, her voice finally cracked and a tear slid down from her left eye.
Jade read something about crying online, if the first tear came from the left eye—it was sadness—right eye, happiness. She wasn't sure if it was proven true or not, but all she knew that she was indeed sad.
Tori
Tori watched the tear roll down Jade's cheek before brushing it away slowly with her thumb, feeling the all too familiar sting of tears behind her own eyes. She blinked them back quickly, not wanting to upset Jade further, it was painful enough to just see the one stray tear fall.
"I understand." She whispered, although it was close to a lie. She understood some aspects of what was going on, but there were still so many complicated and confusing questions that were difficult for either of them to answer. "I know you don't want to break up with Beck, and I shouldn't force you too. I'm sorry."
She reached up to place a small kiss where the tear used to be, then another on Jade's mouth, leaving her lips to linger slightly longer on the Goths.
"I won't bring it up again." Tori fell back onto the bed, still trapped underneath Jade. "But you're going to have to talk about this with him." She stopped, not wanting to say what else was on her mind. She didn't want to be Jade's dirty little secret, and she didn't want to keep feeling guilty about what they were doing when she felt so good about it too. Tori wished things could be simple, but apparently, they just couldn't be.
Jade
"If he agrees, would you agree?" Jade slid down, her mouth covering Tori's neck and all the bruises she'd left there. She let her tongue do her magic and let the sound of Tori's soft moans reach the walls. Jade's hands made their way to Tori's arms, pinning them down softly as she ran through with her thumbs on the front, where the crook of her elbows joined and her other four fingers at the back, guiding her slowly so she wouldn't lose control like she always did.
A lot of things ran through Jade's mind then. It felt like the last time, but she knew it would never be. Not if she ran things here. It was only sad because she didn't think Beck would consider her offer. She knew Tori was unhappy with it, but her desire for more of their trysts overpowered her pride. It was sad and Jade doesn't really feel that way unless she's… she's…
She had to admit she'd fallen pretty hard for someone in a span of a week. It was insane.
Tori
"I-"
Jade wasn't allowing her much room to think. The distraction of Jade's lips on her neck was clouding her already fuzzy mind, making it almost impossible to say no to her question. Not that Tori was sure on the answer as it was. On the one hand, if everyone agreed, then it'd be easier for the three of them. There would be no more sneaking around and hiding things, keeping secrets and feeling guilty. But that could soon lead to complications; Tori didn't know how long she could stand having to share, especially not with the growling monster of jealousy that surfaced from the pit of her stomach at the mere mention of Beck's name. Yes, it was selfish and stubborn, but she couldn't help the way she felt.
But she also, like so many times before, couldn't say no.
"I agree" Tori said in a whisper, swallowing yet another small lump that had worked its way to her throat. The Latina pushed herself so she was lent back on her forearms, causing Jade to move back too. "But, what about you? Would you be okay with the whole situation?" It was probably a stupid question, the answering being an easy yes, but Tori had to be sure.
Jade
Jade stopped all progress once Tori had asked if she was alright with it. "Of course I am." She said, "I mean, why wouldn't I be?" The paler girl ran her hands through Tori's bronze skin, claiming it as her own with a devious smile playing on her lips. There was a hint of disappointment that flashed through Tori's eyes as she spoke so easily of the matter. She could see the growing conflict in Tori's eyes. Of course, she didn't want to share.
"Maybe we should—" Jade released her grip, feeling sorry for the girl and sliding off of her. She found solace on the edge of Tori's bed and stared at her with a hand running through her hair. "—maybe we should stop this." Jade concluded. Tori was already hurt as it is, doing this would make the younger Vega hate her but that's okay, at least she'd be free and happy one day when she gets over it. When they both get over it.
Tori
"Maybe we should." Tori mumbled.
There was almost a vile aftertaste as the words left her mouth. She didn't want this to stop, she really didn't, but things were getting way too complicated for her to handle. Tori couldn't even look at Jade when she said it, knowing she would just crumble completely if she looked into her eyes.
"It- it's probably for the best." She choked. These words burnt in her throat, so much so it hurt. She balled her hand into a fist, gripping tightly to the bed covers she still lay on, trying to keep her emotions in check. "At- at least you don't have to tell Beck. You can pretend this never happened."
She glanced up at Jade slowly, only to see if she could read what the other girl was thinking, although it was difficult to tell. Tori found herself wishing her acting skills would automatically kick in at times like these so no one could see how hurt she felt, but somehow she knew Jade would see right through her, like she usually did. The Latina moved to sit up with her back against the wall, bringing her knees to her chest and resting her arms over them. She now watched Jade closely, wondering what her next move would be. Would she just get up and leave, not coming back? Tori almost hoped the pale girl would convince her to keep this up.
Jade
"Tori," Jade said, looking at the tanner girl with her eyes sad. "Maybe, you should see other people." Jade scratched the back of her neck. She knew she wouldn't be able to handle Tori dating someone else. It took Jade her everything not to rip Ryder Daniel's head off whenever she saw him. She was glad that the sheer humiliation Tori's little plan sent him packing to another state.
No. Jade couldn't possibly bear seeing Tori hand in hand with another guy. Much more her kissing him, having intimate relations. Then maybe, when the hype of their trysts had simmered down, Tori would gush to her about her intimate relations with said guy, thus make Jade want to throw up whatever it is she'd just eaten on Tori's feet. No. She wouldn't be able to handle that at all. She'd just have to cope up with it and go on. That's what life is about, right? She'd probably be extremely angry and hard to talk to for a while, but she'll get over it. Just like she always does.
"It's your call." Jade barely had enough voice left to tell Tori that and she hoped Tori would reconsider her suggestion.
Tori
But I don't want anyone else!
The thought buzzed around Tori's head, but she couldn't open her mouth to let the words out. She knew it wouldn't be the same. No matter who she'd possible go out with- guy, girl, she didn't know or care anymore- the only person she'd be thinking of was Jade. She wondered how Jade would feel if she started dating someone else. Would she feel how Tori felt whenever she thought of her with Beck? Or would she not care? After all, she had a guy all to herself too.
Not to mention, it was already complicated enough, and very unfair on Beck. To bring someone else into the equation… well, put it this way, Tori was never too good at math.
"I dunno." The Latina said lamely, looking down at her knees. "I don't know much anymore."
She ran her hand through her hair again, the habit now turning into a regular thing, before folding her arms across her chest. The anger that had simmered down earlier was still bubbling slightly under the surface, telling her that if it wasn't for Jade selfishly wanting both of them, and not just Tori, then things would be a hell of a lot easier, but Tori quickly covered those feelings and tucked them into a corner, hiding them away from the rest of her already unsteady emotions.
"If I saw someone else… what would happen with us?" Tori finally looked up into Jade's eyes as she asked the question.
Jade
This took Jade by surprise. She never thought that Tori would actually go with it. Her irrational side took course and she felt the rage inside her grow tenfold. "Then maybe you should go out with someone!" Jade yelled, brows furrowing. She didn't want to yell at Tori but there was this rage inside her bellowing because Tori didn't want to save whatever sick twisted thing they had going on between them.
Jade moved on top of the bed, fierce like a tigress, determined to slap some sense into Tori. "Maybe you should get married to the first guy you see too, huh!" Jade was well close in Tori's face and she just screamed at her like that. She didn't consider Tori's feelings. Only her own, because that's who she really was. Who did she think she was, caring about Tori Vega. That could never happen.
With that in mind, Jade officially declared herself as mentally unstable and bipolar.
Tori
That stung.
"I never said I was gonna!" Tori spat back through gritted teeth. She didn't want to argue with Jade again, but the girl made it too easy for them to. "But if you're going to be like this, then maybe I should!"
Tori tried to shove past to get off the bed and away from the Goth, but Jade wouldn't let her. She glared at the paler girl, her jaw set as she tried to bite back all of the angry thoughts swimming around her head, yet she was too annoyed.
"Why shouldn't I date someone else?" The tan girl snarled. "After all, you still get to keep Beck, why can't I have someone else too?"
She tried to get away again, but Jade wouldn't budge. Their noses were just millimeters away from each other's, both girls glaring angrily into each other's eyes and all Tori could read beneath the green was anger.
Jade
Jade felt hot. Literally. It was like she wanted to explode. She remembered the second day of Tori at Hollywood Arts with their alphabetical improv and Tori standing up to her.
No one talks to me like that.
Obviously someone should.
She was even more devastated than she was angry. Her hands made their way to the air on the sides of Tori's face and she seriously wanted to smash both ends so they'd meet resulting to Tori's head crushing—well, she'd have a headache anyway.
But instead, she saw a glimpse of those brown eyes and her insides melt once again. How she had ever made herself vulnerable to Victoria Vega and her decisions would be partially her fault and partially the other woman's. She swore a vein popped in her face and the next thing she knows, it's her instincts taking over again as she crashed her lips to Tori's.
Tori
Tori's cry of surprise was muffled as Jade's lips attacked hers. She certainly hadn't expected this, maybe a slap in the face, but not a kiss. It was hard and rough, Tori could feel all of Jade's anger behind it, and before she knew it she was kissing back with just as much angry passion.
"Mm- Jade!" Tori said against her lips. Jade ignored her, continuing to assault her mouth, then her neck, bruising the bruise that already coloured her skin and causing the Latina to let out a moan before she could stop herself. Her hands found their way to Jade's hair again, gripping tight, not caring if it hurt. She was still angry, yes, but something else was taking over, uncontrollable and wild.
The Latina found herself being shoved backward onto the bed, trapped once again by Jade as the tattooed girl straddled her hips and pinned her arms above her head. Their mouths met again in harsh kisses, tongues wrestling each other for dominance and teeth biting at already swollen lips. Tori knew dating someone else was completely out of the question now, she would never be able to let go of things like this.
Jade
"You can't see anyone," Jade ordered and Tori nodded stupidly as if Jade had all the control over her. Maybe she did, the Goth thought. She stripped off Tori's clothes in an instant and wanted to touch her everywhere in a matter of seconds. Jade's lips were sore and her tongue was dry, but she didn't care. She pressed on and practically performed twice the sex she's already given her companion for the day.
Moans and screams were bouncing off the room as Tori's nails dug on Jade's back. The Latina was writhing under her once again. Naked, and Jade smiled at the thought of the boys who could only wish to be her now. That was never going to happen because Tori was hers and hers alone. No one else's. No one's. "In fact, I'm thinking of buying handcuffs once everything's settled down." Jade seductively suggested in her ear.
Her own nails made her way to Tori's hips, leaving long red marks and making Tori scream louder and louder. There it came, she was nearing Tori's center and Jade buried her face in the tanner girl's neck, thinking of all the things her heart made her feel right now, processing the ache in her chest filled with so much joy and ecstasy.
Tori
"Fuck! Jade!" Tori screamed as her hips bucked uncontrollably to meet the pale girls, earning a grunt from Jade and yet another sharp bite to the throat. It was painful pleasure and Tori couldn't focus on anything but what Jade was doing to her body; it was driving her crazy.
She dug her nails into the tattooed girl's shoulders, dragging her down to attack her lips, trying to deaden the noises she was making, although it was probably pointless; if her parents hadn't heard her already then they'd need to get their hearing checked. She figured she'd have some explaining to do later.
Jade was smirking at her, teasing her and torturing her. She had Tori wrapped around her little finger and she knew it. Tori knew it too, and there was nothing she could do about it.
"God! Jade!" Her body was on fire. Each touch, no matter how little, sent shock waves through her and Jade loved every second of it. The smirk plastered across her swollen lips infuriated Tori. God, how she wished she had some sort of control so she could wipe the look off her face, but she was totally and utterly lost as the dark haired girl moved her fingers further south.
She groaned, her throat already sore from screaming, and a small part of Tori's mind registered that Jade was still fully clothed as her hand gripped her shirt tightly for support. Their argument was forgotten, hell, Tori couldn't even remember what it was about right now, but she knew if this was the result, then maybe she didn't mind arguing with Jade after all.
Jade
Her fingers slipped inside Tori angrily as her teeth attacked Tori's skin viciously and with a force she has never known. The nails of her free hand kept drawing and marking Tori's skin with even redder lines and the pleasure and pain mixed from the sounds of Tori's moans were enough to set Jade off. Tori didn't even need to touch her—but touching her would still be okay.
"God, you taste so good." Jade moaned as her lips slipped down to her throat, then her chest, then to her belly button and without hesitation she grabbed the elastic band of Tori's panties and dragged it down with her mouth. Tori's fingers weaved strongly into Jade's hair and the paler Goth's nails started digging into Tori's wrists as she dipped her head into Tori's center, tongue tracing her folds and the moans of the younger Vega bouncing off her walls.
She'd have to thank her irrational side because sex like this was fantastic.
Tori
"Oh God!" The Latina gasped as Jade's tongue hit her sensitive skin. This was something they hadn't done before and it felt so good, Tori thought they'd definitely have to do it again. "God, Jade! Don't stop!"
Her fingers gripped even tighter into the dark hair, pushing Jade closer and Tori could feel the paler girl smiling against her. The feeling was driving her insane and when Jade added her fingers, inserting them brutally inside the brunette, it almost sent her completely over the edge just there and then.
Tori was withering beneath Jade, her hips bucking wildly, gasping and screaming unintelligible words as Jade's fingers worked inside her and the nails of her free hand dug harshly into her skin, almost drawing blood. The mixture of pain and pleasure, of want and need, Tori couldn't describe how good it was making her feel.
"Jade!" She screamed hoarsely. It was all too much. Tori squeezed her eyes shut tight, seeing stars explode in front of them and she was shaking as she rode out her orgasm.
Jade removed her fingers slowly, Tori moaned at the loss of contact, and then crawled up her body to kiss the Latina fiercely; her tongue forcing its way into her mouth and Tori could taste herself on the girls lips. Tori pushed the Goth off her, flipping them both over so she was now pinning Jade to the bed and stripped her quickly of her shirt. She couldn't let Jade have all the fun now, could she?
Jade
"Hnng!" Jade screamed as she lost the battle for control, her hands making their way to Tori's hair and barely yanking it off her head. Yes, she hated being under the younger Vega but she was so tired to fight her off her high throne. Tori stopped and stared at Jade for a while, eyes burning with desire. Jade stared into her piercing orbs and swallowed a lump in her throat, still tasting the Latina in her.
Tori began trailing a beeline of hard kisses that came with her teeth scraping her porcelain skin. Jade didn't mind though, her white skin hides the nasty scars in the dark especially when she and Beck were at play. Beck. Oh shit. Panic struck Jade in an instant but all thoughts were washed away when Tori's middle finger teasingly slid across her center lightly. Jade looked at Tori, who had a smirk plastered on her face. "Fucking tease," Jade said while she rolled her eyes. The Latina considered it as a challenge and inserted another finger into Jade for the second time that night.
Tori
Tori smirked at Jade's obvious annoyance over her lack of control, but if Tori was anything, she was determined, and she wouldn't let Jade win it back this time. She dragged her nails down Jade's stomach, leaving sharp red marks crossing her pale skin and worked her fingers slowly inside her, watching with a mix of pride and amusement as the tattooed girl squirmed beneath her.
Jade held her hair tighter, a look of impatience in her eyes that only made Tori want to tease her more. She trailed her tongue across the pale girls jaw before attacking her neck with bruising kisses and sharp bites, quickening the pace of her fingers and grinning at Jade's gasps and growls. She wanted to make Jade scream like she had done, so she followed her lead. Tori bit, kissed and scratched her way down Jade's body until she was level with the Goth's center. The Latina's tongue darted out to taste her, running over the sensitive skin, causing Jade to moan louder and louder and Tori smirked with satisfaction.
Jade
Jade's screams definitely did not go unheard in the Vega residence. It was either that or Tori's parents were wearing earplugs or watching a Metallica concert downstairs. She absolutely loved this feeling of not having to do all the work but gaining waves and waves of pleasure wracking her body. If Jade was a building, she'd probably have crumbled by now.
The Goth willed her hands to find Tori's shoulders and once she had a grip of the soft, sweat-induced skin, she raked her fingernails deeply in them, mimicking said girl's actions. Her legs felt like jelly as she came and declared somewhere in the world that Tori was indeed Victorious.
Tori slid her tongue out in a matter of minutes and Jade pulled her up, dragging her shoulders with her bare hands. The Latina stopped and kissed the top of Jade's breast before snaking her arms around her waist and resting her head on the crook of her neck. Jade was still panting and exhausted and suddenly she forgot whatever it was that started this whole angry sex thing.
But argument be damned, it was still so amazing.
Tori
Tori snuggled up to Jade, burying her nose into her neck, breathing in the all different scents that hung in the air around them. She was exhausted; both girls breathing deeply as they came down from their highs. Tori's lips found Jade's skin and kissed softly over the bruises and red marks she had created, feeling Jade shudder at the touch.
Tori didn't want to share this, not with anyone, but she also knew she couldn't force Jade to break up with Beck and if the only way she could have moments like these happen, then she'd have to swallow her stubborn pride and share. And, for all she knew, if the pale girl had to choose between the two, she'd go for Beck. Tori closed her eyes; she didn't want to think about it, not again. Why did these thoughts always creep into her mind when everything between the two girls was so peaceful and nice? She wouldn't mention it to Jade; she didn't want to break to tranquil mood.
"Jade" Tori said softly. Jade shifted slightly to face her questioningly but the Latina just opened her eyes and smiled lazily up at her.
Jade
Jade smiled back at Tori, her heart fluttering at the movement of her face muscles. It was cute. Too cute. Jade tried to shrug it off but she couldn't help but wipe that damn smile off her face either. It was contagious, Tori Vega. She was contagious. She needed to be quarantined for personal and selfish reasons—but Jade had already been infected by her, so did this means he had to be quarantined too?
The paler girl thought about this as she stroked Tori's hair absentmindedly. She still tasted her in her mouth—and quite frankly—she didn't care. She smiled lazily as Tori shifted to move closer to her, arms disconnecting from Jade's body and setting themselves beside Jade's neck, cornering her so all Jade would see is Tori's face. More importantly, Tori's eyes. She stared into the brown orbs that have melted from flames.
Then Jade realized she was entirely stupid for saying what she said next:
"You're beautiful, Vega." She'd probably said a lot of stupid things in the period of time they'd spent together with and without clothes on—but mostly the latter—that time, however, she felt like she really meant it.
Tori
Tori couldn't stop the cheesy smile that spread across her face. She moved her hand to cup Jade's cheek and bring their lips together in a small, gentle kiss before pulling away, the smile still fixed in place.
"You're beautiful too" She whispered. Her eyes followed her finger as it tucked Jade's hair behind her ear, then moved back to the girls face to catch her smiling too. It made Tori's heart flutter to see her so happy, so content, and to know that she was the one making her feel that way. She wanted to be the only one to make her feel that way, but Tori had to stop thinking about that and just enjoy the time they did spend together. Yeah, it would always be there, lingering in the back of her mind, but, now, she'd do anything to keep Jade and make her happy, no matter if Tori liked it or not.
The Latina sighed and rested her head back onto Jade's shoulder, closing her eyes and pushing back all thoughts so she could just savor this moment.
Jade
"Vega, I—" Jade felt brave, yet it wasn't enough for her to say it. To say such words that would break everything would mean exactly that— to break everything they had that was already going so well so far. I mean, she gets free sex without the worries of having to have the morning pill after. I mean, yes, men are lovely too, but being with another woman, it's gentler, softer.
Jade felt Tori shift to face her, but instead of continuing what breathtaking revelation she had with herself, she just pulled the girl tighter to her, wishing that life was simple as this moment they shared. Naked. Under sheets. Without anyone to judge them or care. Simple. Her arms wrapped around Tori and her fingers traced the red marks on her back lightly. Fingertips ghosting on the edge, Jade felt Tori shiver as she planted a soft kiss on the paler girl's neck.
Tori
Tori nuzzled her nose over Jade's neck, planting a few soft kisses in its wake. She was tired, exhausted, her eyes feeling heavy with sleep, but she tried to fight it. Tori wanted to stay awake for as long as possible in Jade's presences, she didn't want to miss a single second of it.
She was aching too. All the scratches, bruises and bites were starting to sting a little, but- Tori thought with a smile- it was all worth it.
However, it didn't take long for the younger Vega to succumb to sleep. She yawned widely, dropped her head back onto the paler girls shoulder and drifted off with a small, happy smile on her lips.
Jade
Jade felt the sudden loss of soul. She felt Tori sleep in her arms like a baby. She was surprised that she hadn't fallen asleep ages ago. She's had sex twice in a span of three hours with unhealthy arguments in between. It would be all too much for someone who wasn't her and they would have probably fallen asleep way before this could happen.
Jade shifted so that Tori would have a more comfortable position and just when she thought she couldn't get any closer, Tori moved higher, her lips to Jade's ears. The paler girl sighed, closing her eyes to events that have led her here. The kiss at the carnival, the second kiss behind Tori's front door. The other kisses that have seemed to mark her lips with her name and her name alone.
"I love you," Jade admitted knowing Tori was deep in her sleep, "I just wanted you to know even though you can't hear me." She whispered to her ear, kissing her temple softly after and then attempting to sleep.
Tori
Tori's heartbeat raced and the smile on her lips grew at the words; she wasn't as asleep as Jade thought she was and she never thought she'd hear those words from Jade West, not to her anyway.
The Latina shifted slightly so her arm lay over Jade's chest, hand resting on the opposite shoulder to her head, then sleepily pushed herself up so her lips met the pale girls cheek in a soft, smiling kiss. She felt Jade jump a little, surprised by the movement and Tori giggled quietly in her ear.
"I love you too, Jade." Tori whispered back. She didn't even have to think about it, she knew exactly how she felt from the very start of this, whatever it was that was going on between them, but she just never put it into words. And these words seemed to fit perfectly.
