The bees were bad today. Jade didn't know where they were coming from, but she wanted to get rid of them. They were awful and getting stung was not fun. Which she just so happened to get stung right as she got to the table for lunch immediately making her grumpy.
Seeing her girlfriend, she didn't want to be grumpy around Tori. She had to deal with a grumpy girlfriend when she was flying home from her family's house. Unsurprisingly, Tori and Andre sat down next to him. "I don't want them sitting here."
Her girlfriend is better at hiding her emotions. "It's great that you're so open with your bitterness." Tori kept a smile on her face.
"She's just grouchy cause she got stung by a bee." Beck explained it to her girlfriend.
Jade couldn't help but feel like a child when he said it and the way Tori looked at her. After Andre freaks out over the bee stings, she would have much rather for the musician to get stung than her.
When her girlfriend notices Beck's scripts and grabs for them, Jade stays focused on her girlfriend. Tori was so beautiful, and Jade wanted to see the amazing person she had in her life. She didn't realize that Beck had to fight back for his script.
Deciding to strike a claim over Tori, she stole her pickle. After biting into it, she gave Tori a smirk. She wasn't surprised when her girlfriend rolled her eyes. The entire table went on about Beck's audition while Jade tried to split her focus back and forth between Tori and Beck.
Hearing the girl yell ow, Jade immediately turned worried it was her girlfriend. She was glad it was some random girl getting stuck by a bee.
-Line Break-
Tori taking up the piccolo was not enjoyable. She practiced the night she got it in front of Jade. She was not good as expected but this was worse than not good. This was terrible and almost a disgrace.
"So, what do you think?" Tori asked excited and proud.
Jade faked a smile and held a thumbs up. "You need a little more practice." Her girlfriend sighed and plopped next to her. Jade wrapped her arm around Tori's shoulders pulling her closer. "You can't expect to be great after an hour."
"Singing took me less than ten minutes." Tori snuggled her head close to the crook of Jade's neck as Jade rubbed her arm.
"This isn't singing. It's going to take a little more time. How about you practice some more? I'll listen."
Tori brought her head up and looked into her girlfriend's teal eyes. "You're the best, did you know that?" She gave her a peck on the lips before sitting up straight to play again.
Despite it being terrible, Jade listened to show her support for her girlfriend.
-Line Break-
Watching Tori perform different versions of the pants line, Jade couldn't help but feel proud. Tori was constantly helping Jade, and Jade went over multiple pointers with her girlfriend to help her improve her stage presence. It was paying off wonderfully.
Her girlfriend looked amazing up there on stage.
"You may sit. I suggest using a chair."
Jade wishes her girlfriend would come over to hear, but that thought was interrupted when Beck walks through the door apologizing for being late. Along with everyone else, Jade wanted to hear about working on a movie set.
Hearing the costume designer being with Beck, she couldn't but tease him about it. She had to do it in the obsessed girlfriend way. Beck threw it right back in her face. This was the rare occasion that they could be best friends, Jade and Beck.
When Beck offered for the class to be on the movie, Jade couldn't believe her best friend would set her up with her first role in a movie.
-Line Break-
On the day that they were needed on set, Tori rode with Jade and Beck. The fake couple rode together in the front while Tori sat in the middle of the backseat. She spent more time leaning forward to have Jade's attention or contribute to the conversation.
At the set, the girls watched Andre strike out. Jade wishes Andre could get a girl since Jade was able to have Tori. Andre was more worthy of a great girlfriend than she was, though she would never voice it. Tori was the sweet one of their relationship.
Jade hated seeing her best friend get corrected in such a weird way. Once she saw her girlfriend looking up the line, she instantly got worried. Her selfless girlfriend was going to cause trouble unintentionally.
"Tori. Sit. Down." Jade said aggressively trying to save Beck and her girlfriend. She hated that her girlfriend was being snapped at, and when she kicks them off the set.
She was torn. She was upset for her best friend who was helping her out so much that just had his first role get cut. She was angry at her girlfriend for getting his role cut. She didn't know who to go after first.
It was Beck she went to first.
Tori was upset and only got a ten-minute phone call. That spawned a texting fight.
At lunch the next day, Jade loved hearing Andre's soundtrack for her walking up to the table. She felt bad that she didn't talk it through with Tori the night before, but it would have only made things worse between the couple.
"Can we sit somewhere else?"
"Nope." Beck was forcing the couple to interact. He told Jade that she was overreacting and needed to forgive her like he already has.
Another apology from Tori occurred and Jade jumped on that train with a light tease. She knew Tori was beating herself up more because Jade was barely speaking to her.
Jade was feeling like Tori would treat their relationship like this if someone found out. She would stand idly by and let them run with it. Jade would've done anything to stop them from being exposed to the world. Not wanting to sit there and overthink this more, Jade got up and walked away.
But she knocked Andre's batteries out first before going back to her text fight.
Beck catching up to her was surprising. "You need to fix this with Tori. She didn't mean to get me kicked off."
"She's not even trying to fix it."
"Well, you're giving her a hard time, so I think she's a little distracted."
"She'll figure it out."
-Line Break-
Hearing about Crystal Waters was surprising news, but it got Beck back on the movie. Jade immediately reached out to Tori praising her and telling her that she was proud of her.
The night after Beck got the call, Jade and Tori met up in the parking lot after school. They snuck their way in her car trying to look unsuspicious. Once they were at Jade's house, they went to her room. They had the house to themselves.
"Ok," Jade started, "I know I acted like a child, but you have to realize how big this was for Beck."
Tori gave her the "are you kidding look" before responding, "You think I didn't?"
"Tori, I'm sorry for acting like a child. You didn't deserve that, and I shouldn't have ignored you." Jade apologized. "I would like for us to work on this."
"Jade, I can't just forgive you that easily."
That stung Jade worse than a bee. "Ok, can I please work for your forgiveness?" Jade asked. "I shouldn't have acted like a child. I promise I'll work on it."
"Yes, and you can start right now by holding me while we Twilight and no, you can't do something else. I suffer the scissoring, you can suffer tonight."
Jade kissed her girlfriend. "For you, anything."
