A/N this is a Cade fanfic (from Victorious) I got the idea from a writing prompt in my English class, so don't judge if it's terrible. -Also, this is my first fanfic, so pls review if there's anything you dislike or think I could portray differently. That's the end of my long ramble, I hope you enjoy!

Jade West rolled out of bed, stretching gingerly as she yawned and rubbed her eyes. 'Shoot' she said, as she checked her alarm clock. School started in 20 minutes. She knew she shouldn't have stayed up so late, watching the Scissoring for the 21st time. It was a great movie, and you can never watch a great movie too many times. She shouldered her bag, and waltzed out the front door. Stopping by her neighbour's house, she peeked through the windows, searching for any signs of movement. It wasn't that she was a stalker or anything, it was just that her next door neighbour hadn't come out of the house for ages, and well, Jade was a curious girl, and just wanted to know things.

14 minutes and 50 seconds later, Jade slipped into her first class of the day, drama, with Mr Sikowitz. Drama was Jade's favourite subject, but Mr Sikowitz was, just a little bit wrong in the head. As she sank down into her hard plastic chair, Cat came running up. "Jadey!" she squealed. Jade fought hard to keep her smile inside. On the outside most people passed her off as mean, scary, goth girl, but, when you got to know her better, which few people actually had the nerve to do, you would learn that secretly, on the inside, she had a soft spot in her heart for the small, bubbly, redheaded girl named Cat, who was basically a sister to Jade. Obviously though, Jade would never admit it out loud.

"What, Cat?" she patiently asked, as Cat danced around in circles.
"You'll never believe what happened!" the petite red head said. "my brother got home from his long holiday at the hospital, and he got me a companion for Mr Longneck!" From within the depths of her bag, she produced a red stuffed panda. "I'm gonna call her Mrs Cutie!"
"Yeah, whatever." Jade scoffed. She just wasn't in the mood for one of Cats long, weird, stories today.
"What's that supposed to mean?!" Cat replied, offended. Just then, a pair of hands clapped over her eyes. "Guess who?" a voice said. "Ooh! I love surprises!" Cat laughed. "Sinjin! Beck! Andre! I don't know! Who?"
Robbie Shapiro emerged from behind Cat's back. "Me!" he said, disappointed.

Jade sighed, bored. "Listen" she said, quickly changing the subject. "Do you know about the auditions going on for a new play?"
"Omg! A new play?" Cat jumped up and down, forgetting everything she was talking about earlier.
"Yeah. Auditions are starting next Monday." Jade stated. "Do you want to come over to mine after school to work on it?"
"Wooooooooooo! Yay! Yes, Yes and Yes!" Cat practically shouted. "See you then, then!" Jade smiled.
