Jade POV
By Thursday we had developed a sort of routine, we would spend the night at each others house making sure to have an alarm for her to get up for her run, before going to school, then the gym for Vega's training, she would also attempt to teach me a few things but we were easily distracted. Then we would head home for homework and sleep. It was exhausting and I wasn't the one waking up ridiculously early to go running and working out all day. Although I did discover something better than Vega workout clothes. Her glasses and the face of concentration she has when she does her homework. So much better.
"Let's go already" Trina snaps from beside me, as I realize that I have been daydreaming staring in my locker. This is the day I have been dreading Trina is taking me to get my disguise for when I go with them this weekend, personally, I think it is ridiculous, but if it calms Vega down and keeps her concentrated on not getting injured on Saturday I can live with it.
"I'm coming, calm down," I tell her as I closed my locker, Trina isn't too terrible to deal with anymore, but she doesn't seem to understand the Vega withdrawals I'm going through. I haven't seen her in over two hours and won't see her for at least another four possibly more, yet another reason why I hate this.
"You two are impossible, you can't go two hours without drooling over each other" Trina says, as we make our way to her car, reason five million that I hate this Trina is driving.
"We are not that bad, not like you would know you aren't seeing anyone" I snap, she just rolls her eyes.
"Let's just get through this without killing each other" I hold back a rude comment, I had seen Trina training with Vega and have no doubt she could kill me with her hands tied behind her back. I'm starting to miss being in denial about my ability to knock people around, even with my scissors I'm no match for these two.
Three hours later, Trina finally drops me off at home giving me instructions to be ready for her tomorrow morning as she was picking Vega and I up and taking us to the airport in the afternoon. When I get to my room I open the door to find Vega sitting on my bed, paper and a keyboard sitting in front of her. She was also wearing her glasses.
"Hey, how did it go?" she asks, as I sit down next to her.
"I got a blonde wig" I sigh
"I'm sorry, I know you think I'm paranoid about this but I just want to make sure you're safe," she says, I lean over to give her a kiss.
"I know, that's why I'm going along with it better safe than sorry, right?" she grins, giving me another kiss.
"I can't wait to meet Liz East, I like the choice of the last name by the way. I have no idea how you came up with it"
"Hey, don't judge me you just used you mother's maiden name" we had discussed this before when I first told her the fake name I came up with. "When do your parents get back from their vacation?" I ask since Vega doesn't like staying alone with her sister she had been staying with me since they left and I would be okay with them staying away for at least another week. Although it did cause, a very awkward sit down with my father about safety and waiting to be ready which I never want to live through again.
"They get back a few hours before we get back on Sunday"
"Shouldn't they be going with us?"
"No, Dad hates watching and only watches it on TV a few days after the fight, once he's seen that I'm okay" Huh, maybe that's what I should have done. "You worry too much"
"I've seen you fight, and walk out of there covered in blood and that only videos. If anything, I don't worry enough"
"I know, but I promise you I'll be careful and get out of there if things get too bad, but I probably am going to get hurt worrying isn't going to change that" I nod, pushing her keyboard and papers to the side and pushing her down on the bed leaning over her.
"That doesn't make me worry any less," I tell her leaning down to kiss her, kissing her is always a good distraction.
"Get in the dang car, Tori you will see your bike in two days this is ridiculous" Trina yells from the driver seat of the car. I climb into passenger seat ignoring Vega's glares as she walks towards us, getting in the back. Next, to the three overnight bags, I was sort of excited to be traveling this light normally my trips to the airport with way too many pieces of luggage then I can carry and always involves running to catch our flight. "Passports?" "Keys?" Trina starts asking seemingly going through a mental check list.
"I thought you had the keys," Vega says.
"Why would I have the keys to your apartment?" Trina explodes.
"I was joking" Vega grins, "Relax we have everything, and we can always get Juan to pick up anything we are missing when he flies out in the morning"
"Mum, left me in charge this time I can't mess this up" Trina whines.
"You won't, you're doing great" Vega reassures her. I roll my eyes at the two they have had this exact same conversation at least fifty times in the last two days. "Now let's go the sooner school is over with the sooner we are in Seattle and you can go see your boyfriend"
"You have a boyfriend?" I gasp, this was new information.
"Yes, now shut up or I won't stop to get you coffee" Trina snaps pulling out of my driveway. I was beginning to like how much the Vega's understood my coffee addiction Dad has never been that understanding.
Andre POV
I watch as Tori and Jade walk into the school, Trina running in ahead of them, but that is not the shocking part, the shocking part is their linked hands. I move out of their line of sight as they make their way over to Jade's locker.
"She was so off key" Jade groans, "this is why I like you taking me to school, at least your singing is semi on key" Tori can't drive, I think as I continue to watch them hoping that Jade doesn't find me and stab me.
"It's just for today. Then it's back to me driving or you could always use that fixed car of yours, that you picked up a few days ago"
"You know I hate driving during the day, plus your driving is better it leads me straight to more coffee," Jade says, taking a sip of the coffee that in her hand. "So when were you going to tell me about this boyfriend" Yes, finally Tori had been way too quiet about who she was dating, and I really wanted to find out who it was. "I can believe Trina was even able to get a boyfriend" Jade finishes, guess I won't be finding out today.
"It will make more sense when you meet him, they are cute together though," Tori tells her, as they make their way over to her locker. "Plus, it also means that she will be staying at his house, so we are going to have the apartment all alone" Tori, say I strain to hear the last part as she finishes in a whisper.
"Hum, what could we do in an apartment all alone" Jade smirk before leaning over to kiss Tori, before turning and walking to her class, Tori follows a few minutes later after closing her locker.
"Oh my gosh," I say to the empty hall way looking after them. "But I How why when " I ask no one.
"A few weeks ago" I hear a voice behind me say, I jump around arms out ready to defend myself, to find Cat giggling to herself.
"You knew about this?" I gasp, pointing in the direction they left in. Cat nods, before her eyes, widen in shock and she quickly covers her mouth.
