I am SO SO SO SO SO SO SO sorry it took so long to put up this chapter. The only excuse I have is Tori's costume. I could no put it into words no matter how long I stared at it. The good news is, you all now finally get to know what they dressed up as!

Thank you Lushcoltrane for coming through and describing the costume. Without you, this still wouldn't have been posted. This chapter is for you!

Chapter 22

Tori's POV

"Earth to Tor." Looking up I find my mom standing above me. "What do you have there?"
"Nothing!"I slide the card into my pocket as I stand. "Is Trina ready?"
"She said she'd be down in a minute." Walking over to the dinner table, she grabs her coffee.
"Hey Mom, why did you and Dad stop going to that therapist?"
She chokes on her coffee. "Did your father tell you about that?"
"No," biting my lip I add, "I heard you arguing about it."
"Oh well, we stopped going because he was a quack."
"Tori, lets go!" Trina yells as she races down the stairs and out the door.
Shooting my mom a tight smile, I shuffle out after Trina.

Closing my locker, I jump as I notice someone standing there.
"Thought you might need this." Beck says with a smile as he hands the cup over.
"Thank you." Glancing around I ask, "Where's Jade?"
"She's not here yet." A slight frown marring his face. "She stayed at her place last night."
"She mad at me?"
"Nah," Beck loops his arm over my shoulder. "We all need space sometimes. Besides, I figured you wanted to open that box." Taking his arm from around my shoulder, he opens the door to my first period.
Turning in the doorway I look at him surprised.
"So what's hiding in there?"
"Costumes."
"For?" he prods.
"Halloween."
"You're not coming with us?"
"Yes, at least I plan to. I'm just hoping I can convince Jade to go out for a bit."
"Out where?" Looking behind Beck I see Jade glowering at us with her arms crossed. Behind her, her shadow Blake.
A throat clears behind me before I can answer, "I do believe you're in my fifth period Mr. Oliver, not my first. So if you wouldn't mind, not blocking my doorway."
"Um, right." Beck steps back and a few kids push their way in. "Later?"
I nod and watch Beck link hands with Jade as they head towards their first class.

Jade's POV

"Tori!" We'll head to the beach house by ourselves. My eyes narrow at the closed door. "If you don't hurry up, I'm cutting that pillow from your grandmother!" Looking around for it I don't notice the bathroom door opening.
"Haven't you done enough damage to it already?"
"It's not my-" I stop as I catch site of Tori.
My eyes aren't sure what to take in first. They follow her black knee high boots up enjoy the bare skin of her thighs, surprised she let so much skin show. The skirt hung only a few inches below her waist showing glimpses of the white and black lace petticoats beneath. The hem lifted in two places with black leather straps connecting to a maroon and gold striped corset. Taking in the the large diamond-shaped opening at the top of the dress smiling at the button holding it closed at her throat. Fingerless gloves and an awesome top hat (that I plan on stealing) with cross-stitching and gold-lensed goggles resting on the brim complete the sexy, steam punk look.
"What is that?"
"You like it?" She does a little spin, showing us the full costume. "I just wanted to try it on before I returned it."
"Why return it?" Beck asks.
"Hm?" Tori fiddles with the hat for a second before answering. "Oh, I don't need it." She shrugs. "We're not going out so why keep the costume?"
"You're comfortable enough to go out in that?" My eyes once again skirt over her body.
"Yep. With some leggings though." She nibbles on her bottom lip as she discreetly pulls on the bottom of the skirt.
"You knew about this?" Glancing at Beck, I see a slight smile.
"Not really. We both knew she wanted to go trick or treating.
My eyes narrow at Tori. Tori, who is doing a damn good job at looking all innocent and hopeful
"Fine." I roll my eyes as a huge smile blooms on the latina's face. "Only a few houses!"
"Yay!" She throws herself at us for a hug.
"I'm not dressing up though."
Tori pulls back, the innocent facade back in place, "That's too bad." Straightening back up, she moves to one of the cabinets and pulls out a box. "I got that costume. You know," she shoots a quick look at Beck, "the one you saw on the computer."
That little minx set me up! Although, it would be nice to surprise Beck. Maybe we can find a nice little corner somewhere..the image of Beck fucking me against a wall while in the costume is too good to pass up. But where is a place Tori would be okay with staying for a few minutes?
"And I suppose we might as well swing by Andre's party as well?"
"Only if you want to." Tori answers.
"I take it, its safe to assume you got one for me as well?"
"Yep." She grabs a bag out of the box.
"What is it?" I ask.
"You have to wait and see. Just like Beck does for yours."
"Fine, I sigh. "Beck, go get ready in the house."
"Yes ma'am." he smirks. Giving my a quick peck he hops up and takes the bag from Tori. Opening it he peeks in. "Cool!" With that, he's out the door.

"So you like it?" I glance over at Tori who is playing with that God awful pillow.
"Yes."
"I almost got you that fairy one."
"I liked that one, but Beck will love this. Top Gun is one of his favorite movies."
"Really?" I nod as I close my mascara.
"Why is that even here?" Tori looks from the pillow to me.
"Someone got make up all over it so I had to hide it from my dad." I hum a non-answer and pick up the curling iron.
"So what is Beck going as?"
"I told you its a surprise."
"And I told you, I don't like surprises."
"Tough."
There's a knock on the door and Tori bounces over to open it as I add a few lose curls to my hair.
"Safe to come in?" I hear Beck question
"Yep but stay over here, Jade isn't ready yet." I smile at the enthusiasm I hear in her voice. If I didn't know better, I'd think she was back to her normal bouncy annoying self.
Unplugging the iron I tug on the short olive color dress. Sliding the pair of aviator sunglasses I pout at myself in the mirror taking in the whole look. Happy with the end product I sit on the toilet and quickly slide my favorite pair of black boots on. Happy Tori didn't get those disgusting ones that the model wore on the site. Stepping out I ask, "Well, what do you think?"
Beck turns and he has a huge grin on his face.
"Matching costumes really?" I ask taking in his flight suit and slicked back hair.
"Jade," He steps closer. "You look.."the heat in his eyes are unmistakable and I smirk pulling back when he leans in to kiss me.
"Don't mess up my make-up." I wink and lean up to whisper in his ear, "They'll be plenty of time for that later." Turning to Tori who just finished putting on some black leggings I say, "Let's roll."
