Over a short little break at Hollywood Arts, Jade decided to dye her hair black. Her father hated it which made it even better, and she had a lovely girlfriend to assist her in the process. The lovely girlfriend in mind could have been more helpful, but she was a beautiful distraction.

Tori had developed an interest in the games that Jade had from watching Jade play. From there, Tori started taking the controller from Jade, and Jade enjoyed Tori sitting in her lap and playing violent video games. Her girlfriend enjoyed them, so Jade went out and bought her a controller to play together. It was a little difficult to sneak by her mom with a pink controller, but anything for Tori.

The start of this week was Sikowitz casting Cat as a bad cop against a criminal played by Beck. It made Jade feel like she did rub off on Cat a bit. The girl could protect herself if Tori's nose was anything to go by with Danny, and this bad cop showed it too. Sikowitz calling the scene boring made Jade feel as if he was thinking a little too harsh, Cat slapped Beck.

Hearing the class argue against him, Sikowitz did take his statement back. Then he decided to focus on the class's dreams and call on Tori to speak her dream. After his earlier comment, Jade did not like the feeling she got in her stomach.

"To be a popstar, a really successful singer." Jade heard Tori speak of it several times, but it was always said with more passion in her voice. Sikowitz's laughter pulled Jade out of her thoughts as she started looking around making sure no one else was laughing at her girlfriend.

Forcing out a laugh, Tori responded with a nervous "What?"

His further comments made Jade want to fight Sikowitz with her fists. She felt herself tense and ready to brawl hearing Tori's sadness and defeat in her voice. Beck put a hand on her arm to keep her back since she was leaning. Andre looked ready to pounce too.

"Ha! You see?" Sikowitz went into some lesson, but Jade was focused on Tori. All Jade could see was Tori having a slight slouch in defeat since they sat in different sections of the room.

At the end of his speech, Tori let out a comment. "I have a headache."

The bell rang, and the class was dismissed. Jade heading towards the doorway was stopped by Rex. The puppet that kissed her girlfriend and she still wanted to throw him in a woodchipper for. "Hey, Jade, nice sweater."

"Thanks, it's made out of puppet hair."

"Dang, girl."

"Just drop it before you get hurt." Andre said from the back of the group.

At lunch, Robbie joined her in line for food. He kept talking while they waited, and Jade didn't respond once. It was laughable about how he kept going on with no other input besides Rex's who brought up Tori's kiss.

"Good luck with that ever happening again." That was Jade's only comment before they walked to the table where she quickly sat down next to Beck away from Robbie.

Cat was in a new costume she had made, and the girl is extremely talented. She was able to make an amazing costume out of anything. She was showing off her talent of measurements when Robbie spoke about his pants being a size four.

"Size four?"

"That's how they measure girl's pants."

"Rex, you promised me these were boy's jeans."

Luckily, Tori showed up before the conversation could go on. She seemed a little nervous and started handing out a headshot of a younger version of herself with a resume. "Can you guys look over this? Sikowitz got me an audition for a movie." Everyone let out a sound of congrats while Jade drank her water to hold back a smile.
"You look twelve in this pic." Andre said with a laugh.

"It was the last time I was shot by a professional photographer."

At the mention of shot, Cat went into a story about her brother and a clown on a bus. It seemed to disturb the table. It started recently, Jade bringing things to distract Cat. Today, Jade had a coloring book that she was planning on giving her little brother when she saw him next, but Cat could use it more.

"Color the tiger." Jade said slamming it on the table for Cat along with some crayons.

Tori mentioned a photographer and Sinjin approached and got in between Tori and Jade. It made Jade feel uncomfortable to have Sinjin invading their space for a useless answer. The group told Tori to make her resume seem bigger and expand on her work.

While looking over Tori's resume, Jade noticed her special skills. "You put bike riding as a special skill. Who can't ride a bike?" Jade knew several other things about Tori that could be put under special skills some included her tongue.

"What should I add for my special skills?"

The guys said helpful things, but Jade let out a smile as she said, "flirtatious hair flipping."

Tori scoffed, "I do not flirtatiously flip my hair."

With a smirk, Jade flipped her hair and turned on her faux Tori voice, "Hi, my name is Tori Vega. Buy me some licorice and I'll give you a kiss." The group followed her lead after Tori said she didn't talk like that. Tori faked a side face before hiding her laughter behind her headshot.

The past few days, Tori rehearsed with Jade multiple times. Each time, Jade was happy to help her girlfriend any way she could. She knew her girlfriend would nail the audition. On the audition day, Jade had to stay home to help her mother with some remodeling.

She awaited Tori's text to tell her she was done, but she was surprised to hear her girlfriend accepted the role of a stunt double. Tori was going to get herself killed. She didn't realize what she had gotten herself into and it scared Jade.

The group talked about it with Sikowitz, Tori had brought them there to listen to her pleas on how to get her out. Everyone in the room had told her that this was on Tori. They couldn't do anything.

"You should never lie on your resume." Jade said and felt the glare Tori was giving her. She looked right into those normally loving eyes. "That's not a pretty face."

"Can you get me out of this?"

"You don't want to do that. You'll get blackballed." Andre explained to Tori the concept of being blackballed. Which made Tori seem even more on edge. Jade wanted to offer her comfort, but this was a difficult thing, and Sikowitz and Andre were there.

When Tori asked which she should do, Jade realized Tori wasn't entirely thinking the situation through. "There will be a bunch of people around, and they're always making sure extra safety precautions are in place. They don't want to pay extra for you."

"You told them you would do it." Andre said looking up from his camera.

"Which is making a commitment." Sikowitz went into a speech about coconuts before getting lost.

Beck asked what stunt she was doing, and the answer of falling off a chair made Jade a little mad. Her girlfriend was being dramatic about falling off a chair. They had fallen of the bed together before. Tori could handle falling from a chair while being prepared for the impact.

"I don't know how to fall off a chair and make it look real." Tori went on about how she wasn't a professional until Jade kicked her out her seat. "Jade!"

"Looked real to me." It was worth the glare she received and the adorable pout she got to witness on the drive home.

Tori wanted to asked everyone to come give her emotional support when she did her stunt, but it was during school. Jade told her she would be there whether the group came or not. She felt bad for her girlfriend. She wouldn't relax at all through the days leading up to the scene. Her attempts at playing games with Jade made her easily distracted thinking about herself being violently thrown to the ground.

It also led to Tori being a little clingier which didn't upset Jade. Tori came over to her house more instead of them staying at the Vega's all the time. Jade's mom commented on how Tori was a better influence on Jade. If only her mother knew what they were doing behind close doors.

The first time she was supposed to do the stunt. Tori was shaking the entire drive, and when Jade would reach over for her head, Tori went into a discussion about how Jade should be safer while driving. She grabbed her hand in the parking lot.

"You're going to be fine. The worst that can happen is probably a scraped knee. You're just falling off a chair." Jade said trying to be comforting. "Look, I know you're nervous and terrified, but I'll be right there. You can come to me right after you're done, and we'll go get ice cream."

"Even if I chicken out?"

"You're not going to. I know you're not. It's just like me kicking you out of the chair but less bruising."

There was a hint of flirtation in her girlfriend's eye. "Some bruising isn't bad."

Giving her a quick kiss. "Come on, let's get this over with."

Jade stood back where they allowed when she noticed the tall building with a balcony. Tori was going to flip. She thought she was just falling out of a chair not three stories. She overheard the director taking a phone call about the emergency room, and the follow up of her girlfriend's cheers.

In the car, her girlfriend seemed normal again. Jade took her out as promised, but once they were parked at school. "You're still going to have to do it. They just delayed shooting."

"You had to remind me."

It led them to having a discussion with their friends. Robbie telling her to just do it. Jade knew it was adding into Tori's anxiety about the whole situation.

"I also don't want to end up in the emergency room."

"Maybe you'll met a handsome young doctor, get married, and share a soda pop." Jade said in her accent that made her girlfriend focus on something else.

"I don't talk like an actress from the 1940s."

Cat approached the friends and complimented Tori's dress. She quickly took a picture to recreate it later. They went into a discussion about her costume, and she agreed to dress Tori for her funeral that Jade would definitely not let happen anytime soon. Andre brought up the entire group coming to set for support to help Tori get through it, but he mentioned the possibility of missing which skyrocketed Tori's anxiety.

Then Sikowitz coming around the corner and seeing Cat's version of himself gave the friends a good show that Jade appreciated and wished Tori had more.

The second attempt had Jade with all their friends behind the cameras. It annoyed Jade. Rex went on about not having a visitor's pass. Robbie talked back and forth with Rex. Cat was excited about the costumes and stayed with Beck. Andre was the only one keeping a level head about the whole situation which Jade was thankful for.

During the first take, Tori looked over the edge to which all the friends waved up at Tori except for Jade. She gave her a motion with her hands signaling she would land right on the sack, but at her girlfriend's scared face, she realized she gave the wrong message. She just made it worse for her girlfriend.

It did hurt that Tori called Andre, but he said the same that Jade would have. Tori had no chances of missing the sack. Beck disappeared along with Cat before Cat quickly reappeared.

When Tori ran away form them, they began searching the app store for the crazy pee app that Tori supposedly had. Jade had seen Tori's phone enough to know what apps she had. She instead texted her making sure she was ok, and she did receive a text that seemed a little chilled out right as her "girlfriend" ran out. She knew her best friend from a mile away. He was always looking out for them.

"Ready!" Beck said in his highest pitch. This voice was going to haunt Jade when she was with Tori again.

In the car, Tori was more relaxed than she had been since taking the role. She was lounging in Jade's passenger seat with her sunglasses over her closed eyes enjoying the air in her face. She had a small smile on her face as they drove closer to the Vega household to celebrate.

"I know Beck did it." Jade said breaking her girlfriend out of relaxation. "I'm not mad, but I was hoping you would do it. Get your blood pumping, you know? Do something crazy."

"I couldn't. It was too much." Tori said with a shame in her voice.

"You tried. You got up there and almost did."

A few days later, Tori begged for them to be on set again to do the stunt. She wanted to do it right and told Jade several times she could. She wanted to prove Jade right.

"Here I go!" Tori kept repeating and almost jumping.

She was going to chicken out again. She didn't want her girlfriend feeling like a failure, so she started walking up the stairs like a knight climbing to their princess.

"I'm going to count to ten! Then-" Tori was cut off by Jade kicking her off the balcony on to the sack that she landed perfectly on.

"You're ever so welcome."

"I don't talk like that!"

Jade watched happily above as her girlfriend celebrated with their friends. Her girlfriend turned around with an evil smirk. "Hey, Jade, why don't you come down here too?"

There was fear in her, but if her girlfriend can do it, she can too. They got the sack ready again as Jade prepared herself for her own fear. Under her breath, "Tori Vega, you're lucky I love you." She didn't catch her words before jumping on the sack below and having her own celebration.

Later, the girlfriends went out with their friends on a celebration of Tori completing the stunt. Jade would drive her home and she would fall asleep in the car before arriving home. Jade would end up staying while Tori fell back asleep but she would fall asleep too because how could she not relax next to her favorite person.

A/N: Season 2 now! I'm changing the lineup to tell the timeline better.
