A/N: So glad that some of you are excited to see me back and the story continue. I know where I am going next and I am super excited for you guys to experience the journey with me.TORITori lay in her bed getting ready to go to sleep. Beck had said that he was coming back tonight, but it was already nearing nine o'clock and she had not heard from him. She had assumed that he was leaving to go talk to Jade and was starting to get worried again.
Tori was drifting off to sleep when she heard her door to her room open. She lay still and waited. She felt Beck's warm hand brush her face.
"Hey," he whispered, "I'm sorry if I am waking you, but I'm back." Tori sat up in the dark and patted the bed next to her. She felt Beck sit down on the bed and lay back. He sighed.
"Are you okay?" Tori's voice cut through the darkness.
"Yes, more than okay. I talked to Jade. Everything is cleared up, and she knows that we are going to be together and that we won't hide anything."
Tori smiled in the dark. "Okay... good."
"I also told her... that I was in love with you."
Silence.
"Tori?"
"Why?" She asked.
"Why... did I tell her that?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Because it's the truth." Beck reached through the dark and dragged Tori into an embrace.
They were lying wrapped up together and Tori sighed. "It's only going to make things harder."
"No... I don't think so." Beck gave Tori a quick squeeze. "Besides, I don't care. Jade isn't coming back to school anyway until graduation. So we're fine."
Tori sighed again and got quiet. She nuzzled into Beck's chest and got comfortable. "Should I let you get some rest?"
"Please... stay." Tori was half asleep.
"Happy to." He said.
Tori fell asleep.
BECKTori had fallen asleep on Beck's chest. He was imagining what she looked like sleeping on his chest. It was too dark to see her face. She's always so beautiful. I bet now is no different. I wish I could see her face.Beck lie awake for a while just listening to her tiny snores and thought about his next move. I've told her that I loved her twice now, and that I was in love with her multiple times. I even told Jade. But she still hasn't said it back. Why? Is she not comfortable? Is she not happy? That can't be right. She seems happy. She did fall asleep on me just now. Beck was drifting and couldn't keep his thoughts straight. He allowed himself to get comfortable and fall asleep.
When Beck woke up, his arm was asleep and the sun was peeking through the zebra print curtains. Beck could see that Tori was still sleeping on his chest. Neither of them had moved. Beck felt more rested than he had since the accident that took his memories. He watched Tori sleep until he couldn't anymore.
"Tori." Beck whispered. He watched for signs that she was waking. "Toriiii. We have to get up."
Tori groaned. "Five more minutes." She said in a muffled tone.
Beck chuckled. "I would stay here forever, babe, but we're gonna be late."
Tori didn't move. "Okay, well, I guess we're gonna miss froyo before class and we'll just starve until lunch. Starve." He said the last word like it was doom.
Tori groaned again and started to stir. "Fine!" She moaned and sat up.
They both got up and Tori got dressed while Beck kept his eyes to the floor. Tori laughed.
"Beck, you don't have to do that. You've already seen allll this." Tori did a little dance.
"I know, and please don't do that. You're killing me."
Tori scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Let's go, are you wearing that?" Tori gestured to the clothes that Beck came in wearing last night.
"I took a shower before I came back last night. Meh." He shurgged and they headed for the door.
On the ride to school, Tori was feeling anxious so she decided to occupy her time. Tori began scrolling down her Slap page and stopped suddenly.
"What's this?" Tori stared at phone screen where she saw that Beck had changed his relationship status.
In A Relationship. Tori stared while Beck smirked at her. "Yeah, I changed that last night before my shower. "It's official."
"We're official." Tori breathed.
"Yep." Beck was grinning now. "We are." He reached over and grabbed Tori's hand and kissed the back of it. Tori laced her fingers with his and settled in for the rest of the ride. This was going to be nice.
