A week into dating and Jade and Tori have a bit of a rocky relationship. Tori learned that she is still distant even as a girlfriend, but Jade tries to make up for it by being sweet over text and answering when she calls.

But Tori isn't being the greatest girlfriend either since Trina's birthweek is starting, and Tori knows she has to impress her sister. It has led Tori to ignore a few of Jade's calls and texts, and her girlfriend has learned that she is very insecure and learned that at three in the morning when she climbed up to her window.

"Jade?" Tori asked her as she opened her window.

Jade knew she had a hurt look in her eyes. "Why didn't you answer me?"

"It's three in the morning."

"Tori, I texted and called you last night and didn't even get a message saying you were busy." Jade could see Tori's face going slightly pale.

"I'm so sorry. I really am. Trina's birthweek is starting and I have to make sure she gets a good present or she won't let me forget about it." She explained to her girlfriend.

"Birthweek?"

"Trina thinks one day isn't enough." Jade nodded and was quiet. "I'm sorry I ignored you. I'll try to be better, but if I am quiet this week, it's because of that."

A few kisses later, Jade left feeling better now that Tori told her what was wrong. The silence from her girlfriend still stung but Tori made up for it and then asked for a suggestion for what to give Trina. Jade was starting to hate Trina even more.

Sinjin decided to follow her around. Jade wishes Tori or Beck would be around her, or at least sit next to her so he would get away from her. Jade couldn't even check her messages because she was worried that Sinjin would see, and Jade wanted to keep calling her girlfriend beautiful.

Sitting at the lunch table, she was hoping that one of their friends would come up with a great idea so Tori could finally be free to be her girlfriend again. As expected, they were all terrible ideas. But Jade wasn't expecting Tori to ask her again on Trina's gift.

"Talent." Jade says bluntly and bringing her eyes down to her fries so she wouldn't see her girlfriend roll her eyes. If her girlfriend's sister had talent then maybe there wouldn't be so much suffering at Hollywood Arts.

"Jade is so pretty."

She immediately stops cutting her French fries when she hears Sinjin complimenting her. She doesn't want someone else complimenting her especially when Tori had been ignoring her for the past few days. Starting the count down, she was pleased that Sinjin immediately started leaving.

When her girlfriend started complaining about them not having good ideas for Trina, Jade was annoyed. She was tired of hearing about the birthweek. When Tori texted her, that's all she was freaking out about. She was over it, so she left before she lashed out at her girlfriend in front of their friends.

Hanging out with Beck after school, they were going on about the latest hockey game. Unfortunately, no fights so Jade wasn't too thrilled about the game. But Beck found a way to turn the conversation to Jade's new relationship.

"So, how's dating Tori?"

"I expected a clingier girlfriend, not one that forgets she has a girlfriend." Jade said with a tone filled with irritation. "I don't know why I expect more. I told her that we have to hide our relationship from everyone but my best friend."

"You two need to talk this out."

Feeling annoyance rise up. "I know, but maybe if she would answer the damn phone, we could have a conversation. Even if she did, it would be all about Trina's fucking birthweek."

"Talk to her."

Later when she heard her girlfriend finally bought Trina her present, Jade was so relieved as Tori immediately started answering every text she sent and apologizing for her distance. But it was shortly lived by the end of the night, Tori texted her saying the gift fell through. Jade immediately groaned when she read it. Hearing Tori was writing a song for Trina gave her some relief.

On the night of Trina's birthday, Jade was doing homework since Tori and Beck were both busy. Her girlfriend would be busy all night with Trina. Beck was out with Alyssa. It was the perfect night to enjoy her basement bedroom.

But she didn't expect the call from her girlfriend at seven pm.

"Trina is so ungrateful. I spent all this past week ignoring you to give her an awesome gift, and she says it's not a present because it doesn't cost money. I should've not cared. I should have been a better girlfriend to someone who obviously cares about me." Tori ranted as soon as she answered the phone. Her voice filled with anger and sadness. "I'm so sorry. Can you please forgive me?"

"Hey, woah, calm down. Yes, I forgive you. You're just stressed out. If you want to escape, you're free to be here. I was just doing homework for my presentation tomorrow." Jade offered wanting to take any chance she could to see her girlfriend. "Did she really not care you wrote her a song?"

"She didn't! She said it wasn't a real present." Tori said beyond frustrated. "I don't think my parents would be happy if I disappeared tonight. I'm sorry."

"Vega, you don't have to apologize for that. You're fine with not getting me in trouble with my parents. I'm not going to get mad over something like that."

Her girlfriend was silent for a moment. "I missed you."

"I missed you too." Jade formed a smiled as she said the words.

"Tomorrow, you have all my attention." Tori said. "I have to go, but I just wanted to talk to you."

"Ok, please don't kill Trina. I have a higher chance of surviving jail than you." Jade said with a light tone.

"I won't. I'll talk to you later." Tori said.

Jade knew her girlfriend felt better after talking to her. "Goodnight, cariño."

"Goodnight, beautiful." Jade could hear the smile in Tori's voice. That's how Jade knew the past week that she started refreshing her knowledge in Spanish was worth it.

As usual, Jade always goes to Jet Brew when she needs coffee. Sometimes, it was once in the morning and other times it was throughout the day. When Jade wanted coffee, she got coffee. It wasn't like her girlfriend could get it for her, out or not.

This trip resulted in a bad coffee. They completely botched her order, but Jade decided that instead of yelling at the employees, she would give it to Tori to help cheer her up.

Walking up and calling out to the Latina, Jade did remember the lonely feeling her girlfriend gave her. Handing out the coffee, she told Tori to tell her what it tasted like.

"Hazelnut?"

Jade felt it come out too quickly. "I don't know, I found it in the garbage." She stuck a piece of her gum in her mouth hoping her girlfriend would get the hint that it wasn't garbage coffee since she drank some of it. Laughing slightly at her girlfriend spitting it out.

"Hey, Tori, Tori's friend." Trina said as she walked over to them.

Friend is something that Jade hated being associated with her and Tori's relationship. She knew that was good for a public front, but she didn't want to be her girlfriend's friend. "Not her friend." She walked away from Tori and the person who cause them to spend a week apart.

She really hopes that Trina doesn't know that she snuck in through Tori's window a few times.

When she hears about Trina selling the song that she wrote for her, Jade wants to cut something Trina loves like maybe her vocal chords? She would treasure a song Tori wrote for her. But it's made better when Tori says she's in a recording booth singing it. She's proud of her girlfriend.

Tori came over after she left the recording studio, she told Jade all about it. Her girlfriend had written a song that had been sold. She was in amazement of her girlfriend and so proud. Jade couldn't imagine herself being happier in any other relationship.
