A/N: oh hooo

It's been a good amount of time since I updated. I would like to give a special thanks to Kiki, youre a good bud and I hope you enjoy this chap. And I want to thank you all for your supportive reviews, so thank you. I read through all the reviews for the last chap recently and there wasn't a single bad one in there. You guys are great, I listened to what you wanted and tried to incorporate it in this chap.

Couple of you wanted more of the gang, and others wanted to see more Andre, and of course more Jori.

So as always read, review and hopefully enjoy

It doesn't make sense. Why has it been so long? Alright fine, one and half days isn't incredibly long in general, but it is a real fucking long time to be apart from someone you just kissed not even 48 hours ago. I'm not being needy, I fucking swear... I just want to see her. I have so many unanswered questions.

I swear Vega just can't leave like that. She can't just kiss me like that, the way she did... all pressed up against the wall, soft panting, roaming hands, moaning- fuck! No! Thats not fair she can't play the ignoring game now, not again.

I feel Beck set down a worksheet in front of me but I just knock it off my desk. Not right now, I can't. I don't even bother looking at him as he sighs softly and sets it down in front of me again. I don't blame him for being slightly irritated. I don't blame anybody to be honest, I've been riled up since yesterday when Vega wasn't in first period. She even told me, the day we kissed, that she was going to see me in Mr. Jenkins's class, and she didn't even come there. I'm assuming after the kiss and after we went back to school, she just went home because I didn't see her at all for the rest of day. Then yesterday came... and I didn't see her again. And now its Friday and surprise still no fucking Vega. I've got to be one of the stupidest people ever for thinking I could actually have something with her. But... I'm not stupid, I know I'm not, she is! She's the one that can't come through with her real feelings about me. But then again she's smart because this could be a mess... for both of us but mostly her. So she is smart but dumb. And im dumb...yet smart. God damn all these fucking contradictions she's messing up my head even more!

"Jade loosen your grip."

"What?" I snip out, my voice tense.

"The scissors." He flicks his gaze down to my hands. "Loosen your grip before you hurt yourself, your knuckles are turning whiter than usual and thats not a good sign." He continues in his calm voice. I watch as his hand comes over mine and begins to gently loosen my fingers from the scissors. "I know you're mad, its okay. You're not stupid for feeling the way you are." I blink and look down at my desk before he can catch my gaze.

I had told the gang yesterday at lunch of what happened. I started from the beginning from when I was sick. I told them of how we texted, and then she came over to check on me, the sauce fight, her spending the night, wearing my flannel, (which she still has), and then lunch, and then...our kiss. I can feel my cheeks warming up from the thought of it right now. "With what you described, who wouldn't feel the way you do." Beck's voice brought me out of my thoughts. I was opened my mouth about to shut him down but he kept going. "Especially with the things you said that she said. You're not some dumb, lovesick fool Jade. Even though I know thats what you're probably calling yourself in your head. You'r probably scolding yourself too, thinking how you could've fallen for her. And in the beginning of all this I would have agreed with you. I knew you didn't want just a hit it and quit it to begin with." He leans in to whisper the last part and I feel my cheeks grow warm. I shove at his arm, pushing him away.

"Dude shut up. I'm not admitting to anything right now."

"Ah. So right now you won't admit it but in the future...?" He smiles and I push at him again.

"Shut up!" I repeat and just as im about hit him again he catches my hand.

"I'm teasing. Seriously though Jade, you have every right to feel how you do. Your feelings are valid okay? Don't beat yourself up about it and don't go do anything rash." He leans down a little to catch my gaze and I groan when I see his caring eyes. "I am serious, expecially with Tori. You care about her so don't go doing anything reckless."

The bell rings but he remains holding my hand down. I look up at his eyes and he shoots me that boyish smile and I groan yet again. I stand up and push at his face as I do so.

"You're so gay I swear."

"Thank you?" I roll my eyes and shoulder my bag. "But I'm still serious-"

"Yeah yeah Beck I got it. Don't feel bad, feelings are valid, nothing rash bleh." I give him a look and he responds with a smile.

"Lunch then?"

I sigh but nod, and we walk out together. We're silent the whole walk there and I am grateful for that. I think comfortable silence between friends are crucial and if you can't have that with someone your close to then it feels forced all the time. I steal a glance at Beck and feel kind of appreciative with his talk. I know at lunch Cat will just try to come up with not-so-realistic ideas of me getting Tori back. And Robbie will just sit there clueless about anything that has to do with relationships and girls. Atleast Beck, he's kind of like the "dad" of the group if that makes any sense. Usually there's a "mom" of a group of friends but since he's a male and all well yeah. He offers advice, makes sure we're okay, and right now he's just helping because he has been through this before. And not going to lie but it does feel good hearing someone say my feelings are valid.

I stray off from Beck's side when we enter the apshalt cafe. I head toward the lunch line as he goes to the group's table. His words run through my mind as does Vega's...everything. His words really did help and like I said earlier; I am appreciative. But I'm not just going to tell him thank you. That's just not me. I decide to just buy one of his favorite snacks to show a little thankfulness. That'll work.

I step forward in the lunch line and feel a presence behind me. I then tense up when I feel thin, lithe arms wrap around my middle. I look down and see painted red fingernails and then close my eyes, getting ready.

"Jaaaaddeeyyy."

I slump back slightly against her and then hear a new, squaky voice.

"Hey you can't cut the line like that." I whip my head around quickly and narrow my eyes at some girl as her gaze moves from Cat to me. I see recognition color her face and then nervousness and finally fear. "O-Oh um.." She doesn't finish and just looks down. I scoff and look to Cat, now seeing a pout on her face.

"Cat? What's wrong."

"She was right. I did cut. Maybe I should go back..." She sniffles and I roll my eyes.

"You're not going anywhere. You're here with me and I'm letting you cut me okay? You're fine." I grab her wrist and guide her in front of me. This way she's away from that stupid girl too.

I hear her sniffles die down and she looks up at me with big doe eyes. She then curiously tries to peek over my shoulder to look back at the girl. "Cat." I roll my eyes and put my hand on her shoulders, guiding her to turn around. "Don't worry about that girl."

She bites her bottom lip and nods and then smiles suddenly. "Oh! I thought of new plans for you to get Tori!"

God damn it. I groan my annoyance but she still keeps talking.

"No no, it's gonna work! I just know it!." She wiggles her eyebrows at me and giggles before saying, "Operation Tori love is in motion."

My eyes widen and I feel my cheeks heat up again. Within seconds I have a secure arm wrapped around Cat as my other hand is covering her mouth. I lean in close to her ear and whisper slow and clearly making sure she understands. "No plan or operation or whatever is in motion. Don't say anything more about it, at least wait till we're at the table." I feel her nod against me and then I add in a after thought. "And nobody said anything about love." I rush out and then let her go one we reach the front of the line.

She begins to order as I run my hands over my face. This girl is going to kill me too, I never said anything about love! First Beck and now Cat. I swear if Robbie says anything about it I'm going to knock the boy out.

I shake my head to myself and step up as Cat steps aside with her food and waits for me. I order a burrito, some coffee and a chocolate frozen yogurt. Once I pay we walk over to our table with the boys already seated. I notice a growing smile on Cat's face and she begins to run in front of me to the table.

"Operation Tori love!" Cat whispers yells a smile coming to Robbie's face as Beck raises his eyebrows. She literally wasted no time in getting her idea out there. Guess I did say at the table she could. Ugh.

I drop down beside beck and carelessly throw my bag on the table. The 3 of them hardly pay acknowledge it or me for that matter. Them probably being too wrapped up in Cat's plan. It gives me the perfect opportunity to place the chocolate frozen yogurt on Beck's tray. Hopefully no questions arises and he just takes the yogurt appreciatively.

"-So all we need is a unicorn, a giant cupcake, Jadey having a hundred roses. Oh! Tori in a beautiful sparkly ballgown- Oh! Oh! And its raining! Also we can't forget the-"

"Cat be quiet!" She instantly rebuttles back but I raise my hand up, signaling thats enough. Because it really is enough, I can't listen to this anymore. Besides a unicorn? Those aren't even real, and where the hell am I going to get a giant cupcake from. Ugh it doesn't even matter. I look up from my short musing and see everybody's attention is on me now. "Ok look, how about we stop talking about my relationship problems or whatever and we move on to your guys's. I mean not that I'm actually interested in them or care but you know?" I wave my hand nonchalantly.

"Oh but why would we do that when you've got the saucy-est of them all." Robbie speaks up and I direct my gaze towards him. I study him and note that it wasn't even sarcasm he genuinely wants to talk about mine.

"Saucy?"

Beck speaks up next and I internally groan as I see the small smirk he has on his face. "Yeah Jade, "saucy" besides I really liked Cat's idea of you coming out of a giant cupcake." He snickers and I immediately narrow my eyes at him. He better shut up soon before I regret giving him that frozen yogurt.

Besides what kind of idea is that. Me coming out of a cupcake? I'll look like a damn stripper. Unless... Vega likes that? What- no! What am I talking about, I doubt me coming out of a cupcake and pulling stripper moves on her will help. I need to show her I'm serious about us. I want more. She wants more... I think. She said she liked me so I'm assuming it might be more. I never thought of Vega just wanting a hit it and quit it with me. I always thought of it the other way around, me doing it with her. What if all she wants is that from me though. Would I be fine with that...

No.

I didn't even think about the answer it just popped into my head. So I guess that kind of answers that. I don't want her to hit it and quit it with me; maybe multiple hit it and quit it will suffice. Or maybe there's feelings argh- no I don't want to think about that either.

I force myself out of my musings once again and look to Beck. I am pretty sure he was the last one talking but he seems busy with the frozen yogurt I got him. I look to Robbie and Cat and see that they are busy with each other. Thank God. There's no one to pester me at the moment. Just my own thoughts bombarding me with confusing, mixed up feelings.

HHHHH

When I pulled up to my house I saw something that I haven't seen all week; and that something was my father's car parked up on the driveway. He was finally back from his business trip. This could go two ways. Either he is going to be really happy with however the business trip went or he's going to blowing up over every little thing because things didn't go his way.

I run a tired hand through my hair as I walk up to my front door. I'm tired. This week has been tiring, emotionally mostly. Thank god its Friday, I don't know what my plans are for this weekend but I'm ready to take it slow. Maybe hang out with the gang tomorrow, maybe try out the suggestion they offered during lunch. It's pathetic to admit but I was, actually still am, incredibly nervous to text her during these days where she was M.I.A. I just didn't want the chance of... rejection. I'm not ready for it. Over text I can't just shut her up with a kiss like I did at Burger King. But the gang's suggestion to text her is tempting as well. Robbie was actually the one to bring up the idea and then Beck and Cat agreed. I swear they act like a group of fangirls over Vega and I. Such weirdos, but still Fuck!

I don't know, maybe I should give it a try. Would she even like the text? Maybe she's not even avoiding me and something happened. Oh god what if she died? No- what thats too extreme they would've told us at school already. Maybe one of her family members got hurt. Hopefully Trina. Well not too seriously because I'm sure Vega cares about her sister and whatever. Maybe she actually went to something positive, like a wedding or something. But I felt like she would've told me if that was the case. Maybe she is actually avoiding me.

I chew my bottom lip as I walk through the door and then stop. Well this was kind of unexpected. Jack Daniels? Vanilla ice cream? Then my father knocked out across the couch with both these things surrounding him. I can't tell if he had a good trip or bad yet. I stare for a few seconds before heading up to my room. He has the right thing in mind.

I drop my bag once I reach my room and begin to strip. When I'm down to my panties I take my phone and crawl into my bed. Now for Vega. I bring my phone up to my face and stare at it for a few seconds. I lick my lips and go to our messages, I couldn't help but to reread our previous messages so I did that first. After that I tried to think of what to text. Minutes passed and I was still stuck. Stuff like "Hey are you ignoring me?" sounded way to needy and I hated it. Then just texting "Whats up?" or "sup" sounded to plain. Another thought was "text me" it sounded demanding but it still had that needy tone to it. I really just wanted to text her a whole bunch of questions to be honest. Like, "Hey where are you?, Did you like kissing me? Do you wanna kiss again?, Are you ignoring me, and why? Do you want to cuddle again?" Okay fuck that last one, stupid cheesiness seeping in again.

I run my hands over my face and groan. The thoughts of her cuddling up next to me those few days ago flash across my mind. The way she was practically on top of me and holding me in her sleep. The way she was whimpering through that scary movie. The way her lips felt. The way she was gripping me throughout- the way she was so frustrated, the way she moaned my name. 'Oh Jade, baby.'

I groan again and curl up on my side. If I could just have her lay with me right now I could climb on top of her and trap her. My hands on either side of her so she couldn't escape. Then I could force her to talk it out with me. I could ask all of my questions and I could make her moan again.

I grab a pillow and bring it to my chest as I close my eyes. The thoughts keep playing through my head as I feel my body get heavier. Sleep is coming and its going to be another night filled with Vega.

HHHHH

bzzz

bzzz

bzzz

"What!?"

Just when I was in the middle of a good sleep. I hardly am paying attention to the person on the other line. Its hard to understand them and its all just jumbled up sounds. I sit up and begin to rub my eye as I hear the person calling out my name.

"Uh yeah? Who's this?" The voice sounds vaguely familiar but I can't place it. All of sudden the sound of the other line changes and all I hear is a repetitive base sound before they speak up again, their voice much clearer than before.

"Hello? Yeah Jade? Can you hear me now its Andre."

This caught my attention. I quickly sat up straighter and responded right away. "Yeah, yeah it is-"

I quickly got caught off and this time I couldn't even be mad when I heard him mention Tori's name.

"Yeah I'm sorry to call you this late but I really need your help. I'm with Tori right now, and I'll just explain later when you get here. Meet me at the club in upper L.A.? I'll text you the address."

"Yeah okay is something wrong with Tori?"

He pauses. It worries me, not going to lie.

"She's... fine. To a certain degree. Nothing to worry about ok? Just be here as fast as you can." With that he hangs up and I'm out of my bed in a flash. I quickly get dressed and grab my wallet, keys and zoom down the stairs. I catch a glimpse of the couch to see the its empty, I figure my father is in bed and hope he doesn't wake up as I leave.

When in the car I see Andre texted me with Tori's phone. The address and the message telling me to meet him in the front of the club shines bright on my phone. The directions say its going to be roughly 15 minutes away. As I drove and the street lights went by as bright blurs it became apparent to me where I was headed.

I was going to Vega. I was going to see Vega. She was not okay.. I think. Andre did a really poor job in explaining the situation, it just got me anxious. I really hope she is okay. I really hope its not awkward either when I see her. God I'm so jittery, not even 10 minutes ago I was peacefully asleep and now my heart is beating faster than it has all day. I tighten my grip on the steering wheel and glance at the time on my dash. Correction, its a new day, its 1 in the morning.

"Your destination is going to be on the left in 4.8 miles."

I glance to my phone and then up ahead. Traffic. And I know why, were getting into the rich part of L.A. I mean my father and I are well off don't get me wrong, were rich but this is like famous rich. This is where the celebrities are. I let my car roll as I look around, its fucking packed. It only takes about 5 or so minutes till I arrive at the club. I park quickly not even caring it was a reserved spot. I then jump out of the car and head towards the front of the club. It was a bitch to find them through the throng of people.

...But when I did..oh wow.

I begin to slow down my pace when I see Vega facing Andre. She's pushing at his shoulders but he looks pretty calm. I look away from their faces and look over Vega's body. My mouth feels dry as I see the lacy, tight black dress she has on. It's exposing a lot, I never seen this much Vega so nicely wrapped up in a dress that was screaming at me to fuck her. I want to fuck her. I want to fuck her with those heels on. Oh god as I come closer I notice she's actually a few inches taller than me with them on.

I'm the dom. I'm the dominant one here. I'm the one in control between us. Fuck but why do I feel so weak to the knees right now. I feel that rush of butterflies hit me full force just like from day one and god damn! Andre just spotted me. A relieved smile comes to his face and it catches Vega's attention. She turns around and thats when I see her eyes.

She's fucking loaded. They way her eyes are hooded slightly and the glassy look in them. Her eyes are shining bright... bright with alcohol.

I open my mouth about to say something but I get caught off guard.

I wasn't ready.

I wasn't ready for her devilish smirk, and I wasn't ready for her grabbing the front of my shirt and pulling me in. I was absolutely not fucking ready when her lips smashed against mine. I couldn't help but to moan. It was rough, sloppy, but her lips were so soft and she kissed me so passionately. My knees nearly buckled once again, but the kiss ended to short when Andre forcibly separated us.

"Don't touch her."

It was an animalistic growl and it was unexpected. I look up at Vega, surprised she would do that. I feel an arm snake around my waist and I tense up quickly. My eyes widen and I look down at the arm around me.

"Tori I'm not going to hurt Jade, I'm the one that called her for you remember? If you want to go home with her then just behave for just five minutes ok?"

Wait, what?

"Promise? Just five minutes and I get her?" She nuzzles my neck from behind and I can't move.

"Yes, just five minutes. Let me talk to Jade."

Hearing my name I look up at Andre with wide eyes and stand completely still. What the hell is happening? What the hell is she doing to me? I feel her her lips skim lightly against my neck and I don't think I can move. She's here nuzzling my neck and holding me as her best friend looks down at me.

He offers a sheepish smile and I can't still make out a word so he begins talking. "Look I didn't mean to bother you and wake you up but I really need your help. I have a client in there, someone big and I invited Tori along to take her mind off you. No you don't have to explain she already told me everything. Looks like she was trying to get you off her mind too because she drank and as you can obviously see it was a lot. She is gone Jade and she was has been calling out to you and demanding she wanted you. I planned to call someone else but I didn't want to risk Tori blabbing to them about you. That could've gotten her trouble and I already know she doesn't want others knowing. So I decided to contact you. She wanted you so I got you and I expect her to be in great care." He steps closer as his voice gets lower. "I am trusting you with her. Do not hurt her. Because if you do I swear I will get you back. She's my best friend and I will do anything for her so take care of her alright?"

He's so serious, I still couldn't do anything but nod. I hear Tori "aw" behind me and then tell Andre he's her best friend too.

He then nods back and looks up to Tori. "I know chicka, now be good and listen to what Jade says ok? She's going to get you safely home, now come on." Andre helps me guide Tori to my car. I still didn't say a word. This was a lot. But I know I had a goal in mind. I respect Andre for being so protective. But Tori...

I look back at her and watch Andre help her get in the car and then buckle her up. He then tells her something and closes my passenger door. "She's a handful when like this, just try to get her to bed and have her sleep. Oh and offer her, her cuddle me Cathy doll that helps. Good luck." He gives me one final look and turns back around.

"What the fuck is a Cuddle me Cathy doll?" I whisper to myself as I get into the car, definitely not ready for tonight events. I have a feeling Vega isn't going to make this easy on me. The hand that goes to my thigh when I sit down my seat proves me point. I take in a breath as she squeezes my thigh gently and then coo's my name. I close my eyes and let out the breath. Fuck, okay lets do this.

A/N: Tell me how it is, I want to see if my writing is still up to its standard for this fic. Tell me if something was off, constructive criticism is always welcomed.

I had this part planned out for awhile. I know where I want to go with this fic for some few chaps, others not but don't worry there is more to come!

Others wanted an explantation of why I was gone and yes I am ok, I've been busy with school and struggling with grown up stuff, its gross being grown up. Like I know instead of writing this fic I should be working and getting money. Only if this paid I would sit my ass down and get to writing. Its a matter of decisions and writing had been very low on my list of demand when it came straight down to it. This is a hobby so it took awhile for me to get to it and then that led to the motivation for this story getting lost along the way but I never wanted to put this story as complete because I know I still wanted to continue it.

So with that said hopefully I come at you guys with another update soon. I know its lame to wait so long but appreciate those who did and still enjoy the story.
