A/N This story is just about over. There's only a few chapters left. And by a few I mean like three, after this one. I've already written them so they wont take forever to be released but you're not going to get another one tomorrow. I just uploaded this one because I forgot to put this AN in that chapter hehe whoops.

And I have to take a minute to reply to a review: Some guest said I should, for some reason, make Tori a werewolf and have her die then come back later or something? (Go look in the reviews for C24 if you want to actually read it). This is not a supernatural story. No werewolves, monsters, or anything like that. However I am going to do a vampire story soon so..

Chapter 25

I waited up for Jade to come home but she never came in. I called her cell phone and text but she never answered and never responded. When it read one a.m. on the clock I worriedly called Cat. The groggy redhead told me that my girl was at her house and didn't want to talk to me. Eventually I cried myself to sleep on the couch and woke up to my mom gently shaking my shoulder.

"Sweetheart, are you okay?" She asked, sitting at my side.

My dad walked over to us , "Where's Jade's car?"

The mention of Jade brought me to tears again. My mother quickly sat me up and wrapped her arms around me, "What happened?"

"Someone's out to get me."

"What?" Dad looked at me.

"Not like trying to kill me. Yesterday while we were on our date Ryder Daniels squirted me with a lemon then kissed me. Jade walked in and thought I was willingly kissing him and I couldn't convince her otherwise. She's at Cat's but she's really mad at me."

"Oh, baby, I'm sure if explain she'll understand." Mom tried to assure me.

"But he said that wasn't going to be the end! And then Lola told me she's going with her fake parents back home!"
"What? But she told us she had something to tell us."

"She did. She said you two didn't want her, that you said it was too late to get to know her."

"That's not true!" Mom protested.

"We didn't tell her anything. We just got back, Tori." Dad told me.

I furrowed my eyebrows. "What? But then why would she think that?"
"I don't know sweetheart."
"She said something about Adam yesterday too...maybe he knows what happened."

My parents told me that they wanted to get to know Lola. She was wrong about everything she said they wanted. Maybe she was wrong about Adam too, but I wouldn't know unless I found out. Dad gave me a ride to Adam's and I quickly marched my way to the door and rang the doorbell. His jeep was the only vehicle in the driveway so he had to be here. After a minute with no reply I rang the doorbell again.
The door swung open and Adam was looking at me, somewhat grumpily. "Tori? What're you doing here at…..ten in the morning on a Saturday? You look like hell...what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? I had the worst day ever yesterday and I have reason to believe that part of it is your fault!"
"My fault? How's it my fault?"

I walked into his house and he shut the door. I paced back and forth, while trying to figure out how I wanted to say what I needed to say. When I looked back at him he was at the kitchen counter pouring coffee into a cup. Coffee made me think of Jade and I teared up. He gave me a worried look. "Tori?"

"Lola's going with her parents! She's leaving Hollywood Arts."
Adam frowned and took a sip of the coffee. "Yeah...I know. She told me yesterday." I walked over and snatched the cup from him taking a drink. "Well you could've asked for some." He grabbed another cup and poured some coffee into it.

"When she said she was leaving I asked her about you. She said she thought you were her boyfriend. What's up with that?" I ignored his comment.

Seeing I was in a bad mood he held a hand to me in a settle down motion. "Calm down a little. I don't know what it is. She started questioning me about Cat and if I was still seeing her or something. Lola wouldn't listen to me."

"You're cheating on her with Cat?"
"Of course not! I don't even know where she got that idea from. I dropped her off at your place yesterday, but the only car there was Trina's. Then she called me later on and started on the Cat thing."

I frowned. "Wait, Trina's car?"

"Yeah. What's going on?" I quickly filled him in on last night's events. When I was finished he looked at me concerned, "You want me to go find this Ryder guy and beat him down? Then drag him to you so you can beat him down?"

"No I just want my girlfriend and my sister back." I said sadly.

"Well, I don't mean to sound like a selfish jerk or anything but maybe we should go and convince Lola to stay? I mean she said she was leaving at like three and once she's gone she's gone. Jade isn't going anywhere."
"We?" I looked at him.

"Can't let you do all of it alone." He said.

"Thanks.." I smiled at him then started to think out loud. "So, if Trina was the only one at home then it makes sense that she told Lola all that stuff. But why would she?"

"Robbie was bragging to Andre and I about how Trina was going to stay at his place last night while his family was gone. She's probably still there. Let's go ask."

"Right."

Adam drove his jeep over to Robbie's and we got there just as Trina was starting to pull out of the driveway. Adam quickly blocked her path and turned off the vehicle. Trina got out of her car and walked over to us. I quickly got out and stared her down. Adam's door shut and he stood next to me.

"What the hell? You're blocking me!" Trina shouted.

"What the hell did you tell Lola yesterday?" I glared at her.

"I didn't tell her a thing." Trina said. However Trina's a terrible and I saw the smug look in her eyes.

I walked over to her and got in her face. "I'm not in the mood, Trina. Now you can either tell me what the hell you said or I go and tell Robbie that you don't even want to date him and you want Beck." I snarled.

Her eyes widened and then narrowed at me, "You wouldn't dare."
"Adam, go inside and get Robbie for me?" Adam nodded and started walking to Robbie's house.

"Wait!" Adam stopped and looked at her and I waited. "Okay fine. I told her mom and dad didn't want her. I told her Adam still liked Cat."
I stared at her, "Why?!"

"Because of you! How the hell is someone you don't even know that well a better sister then me?"

"You're a horrible sister. You're whiney, you're lazy, you're a complete bitch, you only care about yourself and you do this kind of stuff! A good sister wouldn't do anything to hurt her sister."

"Like you hurt me?"

"I retaliated to you."

"Whatever. It's too late. Now you've lost Lola and Jade." Trina smirked.

I narrowed my eyes at her and balled my hands up. "How did you know about Jade?"
Trina realized she said to much, "Dammit."

"You got Ryder to kiss me didn't you!" It wasn't a question at this point and I didn't even need an answer.

"Yes." My hand reacted before I could even realize what happened. Instead of a slap, like she gave me, my knuckles met her nose. Trina squealed and covered her nose. She pulled her hands away and I could see her nose was bleeding. She jumped at me but Adam was quickly in between us and holding her back. "And I'm the bad sister?!"
"You know what Trina. I'm done with you. I don't care what you do. I don't care where you go when you graduate. But I don't want to see you anymore. From now on I only have one sister and she isn't you." I said, feeling the venom in the words as I spoke. Her eyes widened and she looked as if I had just hit her...again.

"Come on Adam. Let's go get Lola before she's gone."

"Good idea."

We got in the car and quickly drove down the road. I could still see Trina standing motionless in the rear view mirror as we drove off.
