Beck POV

I stand there with Tori as we watch Jade and Cat walk off. I raise my eyebrow at them and I look around to see that there wasn't a lot of people in the hallway. I nudge her to head to head to the auditorium for our acting class. I felt my phone vibrate in in my pocket when we got to class. I look at my phone to see that I got a message from Jade which read:

You better make your move, Casanova ;)

I smirk, "God, I love that woman." I put my phone back in my pocket and turn to Tori. I pull her to a secluded area of the auditorium, "So, Tori. Jade was giving me a quick preview of what happened before you guys came into class and I gotta say, I'm really sad that I got to miss the show." I slowly look her up and down. She bites her lip and blush. I move a little closer to her, "I think you should make it up to me?" I hovering over her as she leans against the wall.

With her lip between teeth, she nods her head. I put my hand under her chin and lightly tug her bottom lip from between her teeth and capture her lips. I swallow up the small moans she was letting out. We pull back, our breathing is heavy. Our foreheads leaning against each other.

"What did I get myself into with the two of you?" She says jokingly, her eyes still close.

"Mmm, a loving relationship with your sexy boyfriend and girlfriend who will give you the time of your life?" I smirk. She opens her eyes at my snarky comment and rolls her eyes. "You better stop with the sass or I'm going to have to leave you wanting." She teases.

"You're playing around with fire and you might get burned if you're not careful," I warned, half-jokingly and half-serious.

She seems to catch on the serious half because seem confused, "What do you mean?" I realize that I made a mistake.

"Damn, I let this out a bit too early. I should have waited to bring this up later." I chastised myself. I smile, "Don't worry about it, I'm just messing with you." She looks suspicious but let it go for now.

"Come on, let's go get our seats." She agrees and we were able to sneak out before anybody saw us. We found some seats in the third row and sat down. Our teacher, Paul the drama teacher, was sitting at his desk in front of the stage. I casually threw my arm around over the back of Tori's seat. Making sure nobody is able to see our body or our body language.

A few minutes later, Paul called the class to an attention. He had everybody on the stage for a mirror exercise and he told us to pick partners. I turned to Tori but I notice a guy on her right look like he's about to ask Tori to be her partner. I have seen him around but we never talk before, I think his name is Jackson. He's about an inch or two shorter than me. He looks to be super preppy, rich boy. He has short, slick back blonde hair. He is wearing a white button-up shirt with a navy blue sweater over it and a pair of khaki pants and some brown dress shoes. I glare at him.

"Hey Tori, want to be my partner?" This sleazeball asks her. Before I can jump in, Sinjin got in front of me and was already in front of me to be my partner. Tori looked over at me and by the look on her face, she thinks I'm partnering with Sinjin. She turns back to Prep Boy and shrug her shoulder and nod her head. I look at Sinjin and sigh, "Sure". He smiles and we start the exercise.

I kept my eyes on them the whole entire time. Tori seems okay but I don't trust this guy. He seems way too friendly for my taste. I barely remember what was going on in class. Everything we did in class requires us to stay with the partner we had throughout class. He kept making Tori giggle and smile and he was just eating it up. My tipping point was when he wrapped his arm around Tori's waist.

I walk over to them and push my way between them, "Hey buddy, what seems to be going on here." I try to keep casual and threw an arm over Tori's shoulder in a friendly way. He raises his eyebrow at me, "Nothing, I was telling Tori that I would love to hang out with her before you just push your way through." Tori look like she was about to answer him.

Before Tori can answer him, I jump in, "Aww, I'm sorry but she can't. She promises to help me find a present for my girlfriend and she is the only person I trust to keep it a secret." I said with fake sincerity.

Tori had a confused look on her face but she didn't want to call out my lie in front of Jackson, so she nods her head in agreement, "Yeah, I'm sorry. Maybe another day?"

He nods his head but he seems really doubtful that we are telling the truth, "Yeah, sure. I'll see you around then." He waves as he walks over to his stuff. Tori turns to me, "What was that?" She demanded in a whisper.

"What was what?" I try to play innocent.

That didn't seem like the right thing to do because she seems to get a bit more upset, "Don't play innocent with me. What with the attitude towards Jackson? Also, a present for Jade? That is the worst lie I ever heard. Everybody in this school doesn't know about the three of us and they still think that me and Jade are still the way we were before the weekend and that Jade is super possessive over you. Meaning that in their eyes, I should be the last person that is alone with you to get Jade a present." She whispers yelled at me.

I look down, "I'm sorry, I honestly don't know what that was. I just saw him with you, making you smile and then his arm around you was my tipping point. That was the first lie to pop into my head. I wasn't thinking very clearly" I look at her under my eyelashes.

"Hmm, I forgive you because it seems like this is something that you normally deal with but we are going to have a serious talk about this. I don't want this to be a constant thing. Okay?" I nod my head. She sighs and then giggles, "Who knew that you were going to beat Jade to the punch with this." I give her a boyish smile. She rolls her eyes and walks over to get her stuff with me following behind her.

"Oh yeah and one more thing, Jackson is openly gay and have a boyfriend." she gives me a big smile as she walks towards the auditorium door. I just stand there, blinking in surprise. I look up to see her leaning against the wall next to the door with a teasing smile.

"Oh, she is so in trouble when we are alone," I smirk as I grab my stuff and follow behind her out the auditorium.
