Thank you for the follows, faves, and reviews.

This is a filler chapter to show Jade's thoughts after the break up and her and Tori possibly growing closer, acting as a tie in for the next chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own 'VicTORious' or the characters.

Jade POV

It's been a week since Beck and I officially broke up. Since then, I've tried to talk to him, but he doesn't stick around too much. Outside of school, he goes to the hospital to be with his dad, and a few days after the accident, he drove him home.

I've tried to apologize, but he never opens the door for me, he simply tells me he doesn't want to talk. Interestingly, I've seen him and Vega talking to each other a few times, but after, she always looks like she's thinking about something and he just walks away without a second glance.

I questioned her about it a few days ago, my jealousy taking control, and got in her face about it, yelling about how I can't believe she's trying to steal my ex-boyfriend from me.

Surprisingly, she countered by saying she was trying to get him to give me a chance, to go back out with me.

I've watched them closely since then, and it seem she wasn't lying. I've had Cat spy on them on Friday after school since Sikowitz paired them together for an acting assignment, and she told me that when they weren't working on the short script, which oddly enough they chose something other than romance like I expected her to choose, she tried convincing Beck to talk to me, work things out, and possibly get back together. And Cat, knowing I might not believe her otherwise, recorded a short video of Tori talking to Beck, the two brunette's barely seen since Cat had to make sure they wouldn't possibly see the phone, but their voices where clear.

Now, here we are, just over a week after the break up, and I'm again going home alone to work on homework.

"Oh, sorry Jade." Vega says after bumping into me in her rush to leave.

"What's the rush?" I ask, slightly irritated at being bumped.

"I was trying to get out before Trina left me again." Vega says with a sigh. "Which was pointless, because her car's gone already." She says with a sigh.

"I'll give you a ride." I say, walking towards my car.

"Really? Why?" She asks, jogging to catch up.

"Because I know you've spent the last week trying to get Beck to talk to me. I usually find your ability to not take a hint annoying, but I'm kinda thankful for it now." I say honestly as I walk to my car. "Get in. I'll drop you off." I say, unlocking the doors.

"Thank you." Vega says, quickly climbing into the passenger seat. "How do you know I've been talking to Beck?" She asks as I drive towards her house.

"Cat recorded a video of you and Beck talking. It was mainly you trying to convince him to talk to me, with the rest being the two of you working on that project for Sikowtiz's." I say as I drive. "Why are you, anyway?" I ask as I stop at a red light.

"Why am I what? Talking to Beck for you?" She asks, turning to face me. "Because I don't like you two being broken up. It's weird." She says, looking back in front of her.

"Have you ever had a crush on him?" I ask, a question that's been bugging me since her first day at Hollywood Arts.

"No, not really." Tori says with a small sigh. "Yeah, he's good looking and a nice guy, but I can tell you two love each other, and I never wanted to get in the middle of it." She says, looking back at me. "I'm sorry I kissed him on my second day, but that was only to get back at you for the coffee and treating me like a dog, not to try to get him or anything." She assures me as I pull up to her house, her sister's car in the driveway.

"So you kissed him to get back at me?" I ask as she goes to climb out.

"Kinda. I mean, I regretted it after we broke apart, but at the time, I just felt like doing something to pay you back for making me be a dog and pouring iced coffee in my hair." She says with a small blush.

"Well, I've messed with you a few times since, so I guess we're even." I say with a hint of a joke.

"Uh, not exactly, but whatever." Tori says with a small chuckle. "How are you feeling?" She asks as she opens the door.

"Been better." I say honestly, trusting he with this side of me.

"I can't say things will work out, but I hope they do. In some way." Tori says as she climbs out. "See you later Jade." She says, closing the door.

"See ya." I say as she walks to the front door.

I head home and start working on my homework. Usually, Beck and I would be at his RV working on homework and talking. Now, I sit alone in my room as I work on my homework, silence around me.

Over the weekend, I do nothing but watch random horror movies, not once paying attention to them. Saturday, Cat comes over to hang out, trying to cheer me up. Sunday's the same, but it's Tori who stops by with the complete set of the original 'Child's Play' movies and all the ones after up to 'Curse of Chucky'.

Surprisingly, she sits through them with me, jumping at some scary parts, but ultimately, reacting better than I thought she would.

"See you tomorrow?" Tori asks as 'Bride of Chucky' ends.

"Yeah. I'll be at your place to pick you up at seven." I say as I take out the DVD and put it back in the case, handing them to her as she gets ready to leave.

"You don't have to drive me, Jade." She says, staring at me as she puts the cases in her bag. "I can ride with Trina."

"Too bad. You're riding with me." I say, shutting off the t.v. "Thanks for being here for me." I say softly as she heads to the door with me following.

"You're welcome. I hope you feel better and start acting like yourself." She says as I open the door for her. When she sees the confused look on my face, she continues. "I don't like this Jade. She's too nice. I like Scary Jade better." She says, walking away.

"How did you get here?" I ask as she walks away, remembering she doesn't have her license yet, or a car. "And I'm not nice." I say as she walks away.

All she does is laugh a bit as she walks. I'm still waiting to know how she got here and how she's getting home.

That's it for this one. Next one will take place during 'Robarazzi'. We also see a hint of the old Jade that Tori misses next chapter.

I feel weird writing Jade this way.

Thank you for reading. Please review.

Blessed Be.
