Rain: And here I am with another chapter. I hope you guys enjoy it!
Jade: It seems like they are.
Tori: It really does.
Rain: Yeah, yeah. Once I finish this Vic Fic, I have another idea I've been toying with for our dear little singing cast so when this is done, I'll start that one…But for now, let's start the show!
Hate Love
Chapter Three
"Oh my gosh! You love Tori?" Cat asked with surprise and joy, which made me smile, despite my current grumpy mood.
Cat is my best friend and always has been. She's the Andre to my Tori. My Ed to my Edd and Eddy. I knew from jump that I needed to tell her. Despite her airy nature, she keeps all of my deepest darkest secrets and I trust her dearly.
Not that she'll ever know that.
"Yep. Andre is currently helping me out in making a song to tell her this," I told her. "We're almost done with it too."
"Is it a pop song?" Cat asked curiously.
"Nope, pure rock song kitty cat," I responded.
"So what happens after the song?" Cat asked.
I paused.
Shit…That is a good question.
"Hey guys!" Vega said as she walked over to our table with her lunch tray.
"Hey Tori," Cat said happily before giving me a subtle smirk, which made me grumble.
"Where is the rest of our gang?" Vega asked.
"Beck is chatting with Carly. Robbie and Rex, no idea and thank god for that and Andre…I don't know actually," I replied as I looked at everything but her.
"Be nice to Robbie," Cat said with a pout.
I frowned.
I will never know what Cat sees in that puppet wearing boy.
Vega sat right beside me and said "I'm sure they'll join us eventually."
"Oh! I just remembered. I promised to call Sam and Freddie to see if they got together," Cat said before she suddenly stood up and trotted off before I could try to even attempt to get her to stay.
Now it was just Vega and I…
Alone…
"So Jade, I tried to catch your attention the other day but you ran off. I wanted to talk to you," Vega said as she grumbled and rubbed her eye.
"Oh did you now?" I asked, trying to keep my voice cool but all I could do was look at her lips. They were so plump…It was like they were begging me to kiss them.
"Yeah…I just wanted to see how you were holding up. I mean Beck is going with Carly now and I was worried you weren't taking it well," Vega said.
"How sweet," I said mockingly but I also did find her worry about my feelings legit sweet as well. "Well sunshine, I'm doing just fine. Beck and I have been broken up for a good bit now. I'm over it."
"I'm glad," Vega replied with a smile before she rubbed her eye again. "I was so worried you were going to drinking yourself under the table like you did that night but instead, you look happier and you're still friends with him. I'm really glad."
"I'm glad too because now that all of that pain has passed, I'm now I'm single and ready to mingle," I replied dryly before I frowned.
I can't believe I said that.
Ew.
Who am I, my parents?
But Vega giggled and for a second, I couldn't help but enjoy the musical sound that escape her mouth. "Wow, I think that's worse than my dad's "I'm off like a prom dress" line he gives anytime he leaves," she said with a smile.
Fuck…Don't smile at me…
I can feel the sugar in my veins with how sweet and delicious it looks!
I smirked and asked "So, fellow single lady, where are you taking me out this weekend?"
"T-Taking you out?" Vega stammered.
So cute...
"Yeah. I'm sure you have a quota to fill when it comes to hanging out with me so out with it, where are you taking me?" I asked.
Come on Vega, I'm practically asking you to take me out.
Finally, that familiar excited sparkle appeared in her eyes and she replied "Well if you must know, I was going to ask you to accompany me to the farmers market on Saturday. Word on the street, those neat Amish people will be there with some delicious banana bread and strawberry bread."
"You go to those?" I asked with surprise.
"Yeah. My folks used to take me to the farmers market when I was younger but we haven't gone in a few years. I've been going by myself since they're too busy nowadays. After that, I'll see where the wind takes me," Vega replied.
"Alright, you had me at strawberry bread," I told her with a smirk.
"Great! I-It's been awhile since we hung out. I honestly can't wait to spend time with you," Vega said with a bright smile.
That smile…I caused that smile.
I actively made her smile instead of groan in annoyance or growl in anger! Holy shit! Don't I feel warm inside?
I then saw Vega growl and rub her eye again, which made me finally ask "What's going on with your eye Vega?
"This stupid eyelash…" Vega grumbled out.
"God god's sake," I said and took her face into my hands and said "Hold still." I then blew into her eye softly and freed the dumb eyelash. "There…All done," I said before I looked at her and I am now aware that I'm holding her face and we're looking at each other eye to eye.
Her big…brown doe-like eyes…
I saw her lick her lips nervously and whisper "Jade…I need my face?"
"I do too," I replied before I blinked.
Shit! I wasn't supposed to say that!
I could feel her face heat up against my palms as she murmured "Well…If you want it, I'm not stopping you…"
I took a sharp breath and muttered "Good because I really ne-"
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late to lunch!" Robbie said happily.
I turned to look at him with death in my eyes, which caused him to shriek and run off. I then felt Vega move her face from my hands as she stammered "I-I just remembered. I-I have this thing! I'll see you on Saturday, bye!" and without another word, she ran off.
Fucking Robbie!
"She was going to kiss me, I just know it!" I exclaimed to Trina, who was currently relaxed in my bed, humming a tune.
"Well would it have been bad if she did?" Trina asked me.
"No...But what would make her do that?" I asked her.
"I don't know. She's your freaky little friend," Trina said. "Who knows what she's thinking."
I frowned.
She was going to kiss me. The eyes that she had…They looked the same like they did that night but she was sober and I know for a fact that this wasn't a rebound type deal…But why would she want to do that?
Did she like me as much as I loved her?
No…don't get your hopes up Vega. They're bound to let you down.
"So Tori…Is Andre coming over today?" Trina asked.
"Y-You just called him Andre," I stammered out in shock. "You a-actually called him by his name! Who are you and what have you done with Trina?"
"It's still me you damn goober!" Trina exclaimed as she launched a pillow at my head.
I laughed and let the pillow hit me and said "No, he's supposed to be with his grandma today. Why do y-"
Just as I said those words, I heard the door knock but to my shock, Trina said "I'll grab it," before she walked out.
She never gets the door…Ever!
What the hell is going on?
As much as I love my sister, she can be totally blind sometimes.
Every single day, she goes on and on about her freaky little Goth girl. It's adorable to see her so in love but if she could get her head out of the clouds, she would be able to see that her Goth girl loves her too.
It's so obvious. Jade has had such an obsession for Tori since…Since they met. I equate it to a five year old boy picking on a girl or boy he likes down in Kindergarten.
She is so in love with Tori and everyone is blind to it.
But not me.
I have perfect vision you know?
I'm also not blind when it comes to Andre…Well, not anymore.
Me and Andre go back a ways…We had barely been associates at Hollywood Arts before he met my sister. He was the confident, chill and kind of kooky guy and I was popular but even when we barely interacted, we didn't exactly mesh well.
And the more
The reason he even knows Tori is because of me but we weren't/aren't friends. We kinda like Frenemies. I tease him by getting his name wrong, he gets annoyed. I ignore him, he ignores me. Childs stuff really.
But something changed…The night my dweeby sister and Carly Shay of all people teamed up to get revenge on this two-timing dirtbag.
"What are you doing out here Andre?"I asked as Andre stood on the balcony of Keenan Fucking Thompson's place.
"I needed to clear my head," Andre replied.
"Clear your head from what?" I asked him curiously.
"From hunting down that bastard," Andre replied, unnaturally angry.
"The guy that two-timed Tori and Carly?" I asked him. He remained silent but I could see the anger on his face grow deeper.
I rolled my eyes angrily and said "For goodness sake, just tell her how you feel!"
Andre jumped in surprise and replied "What?"
"It's so obvious that you're in love with her!" I exclaimed. "It's not just you either! Beck, Cat, Robbie, especially Jade! You all love her and want to be with her! I get it, she's oh so perfect and flawless and charming! I get it already. Just go tell her how you feel and continue to be blind to everything!"
I could feel the hot tears fall from my eyes as I blinked in surprise.
"Y-You think I love Tori?" Andre asked me, the anger in his voice gone, replace by surprise.
"Who doesn't?" I asked bitterly. "All of you act as if she's perfect. No one in this damn place ever sees me past her. I'm the eldest and yet…I always feel overshadowed by her…"
"Trina…" Andre said softly.
"Just forget it…" I told him before I turned away but then I felt his arm grab my wrist and when he turned me around, his lips were pressed against mine. My eyes were bugging out but I could feel them close before I returned it.
I don't know why he kissed me or why I returned it but…It…felt perfect. Like I was always meant to kiss him…Or something like that…But since then, I've craved his kisses and his attention.
But I don't know what he is to me. Is he still my Frenemy?
Is he my friend? Or is he more?
I have no idea but I…I'm not opposed to explore this…If he would give me the time of day! I walked to the door and opened to see Andre's surprised face and smirked. "T-Trina," Andre stammered. "Fancy seeing you here," he said with a grin.
"I do live here," I responded with a smile.
"I know…believe me, I know," Andre said with a nervous smile. "B-But I remembered that I had to bring Tori's music disc back and came over quick to…to…" he began to drift off as I smirked.
"God, can you be any more adorable right now?" I asked him before I pulled him down by his shirt and laid a hard kiss on his lips but before he could return it, I pulled away.
"W-What?" Andre stammered.
"You really came all this way for a kiss…Didn't you Andre?" I teased as I licked my lips. Tastes like blueberries.
It was then I saw it, there was this look in his eyes. I had seen it when he first kissed me and then again when he kissed me at the Black Box.
It was this look that caused butterflies to flutter in my stomach.
"A-An-" I was interrupted as Andre leaned down and claimed my lips in a deep kiss. I could feel my legs weakening as I wrapped my arms around his neck as my tongue slid into his mouth to explore and to my delight he did the same.
I could feel his arms wrap around me and pull me close and I couldn't but let out a breathy "A-Andre…"
I felt suddenly leapt up and wrapped my legs across his waist, unashamed at this ravenous feeling that began to fill me and it only got worse when Andre's hands found themselves beneath my bare thighs.
"Trina?! Who was at the door?!" Tori's voice yelled from inside the house, immediately washing away that feeling from me. I pulled away from Andre and panted heavily, my face burning hot as I looked down at his eyes.
"W-Whoa…" I stuttered as he sat me down, his face looking as red as mine, despite the darker complexion. I leaned against the door, my legs still feeling like jelly.
Andre pulled out a small disk and murmured "T-This is Tori's song…Be so kind to give it to her?"
I nodded and plucked the disc from his hand, unable to trust my own mouth. He nodded and was about to take a step back when I murmured "See you later?"
"Later…" he breathed out with an small grin.
I watched as he slowly left, unable to stop my smirk as I saw him try to steady myself.
I then turned around and walked back into the house, unable to stop giggling as I sat on the couch. "So who was that?" Tori asked me. I didn't answer vocally but when I handed her the disc, she said "Why didn't you invite him in?"
"He…Had to go but he'll be back…" I replied
Because of Andre, I was no longer blind to him and I think he's no longer blind to me either…
Damn he's a good kisser.
Rain: So Tori and Jade has a date and I totally went out of control with my Trina and Andre shipping but I find this fun. Two couples that are in limbo after one of them crosses that line? I'm a sucker for it! I'm thinking of wrapping this up in two/three more chapters…I'm hoping at least lol Until the next one!
Mario: See you next time!
