Thank you for the follows, faves, and reviews. This is, as I've mentioned last chapter, based on 'Prom Wrecker', and I try my hand at explaining how the shrimp got in Tori's bra and how she didn't notice it until Jade pointed it out. Also, I further get them together.
I don't remember, sad as it must be to admit, if I've said anything about Jade liking Tori the way Tori likes her. So, I'm going under the assumption that I did, but she only admitted it to herself and no one else knows.
Disclaimer: I don't won 'VicTorious' or the characters.
No POV
"Uh, Jade?" Tori asks as she, Jade, and Cat get ready for Hollywood Arts' first prom, or prome as she calls it, at her house.
"What?" Jade asks, styling her hair a bit as Cat does her make-up.
"Why do your dress and hair look like mine?" Tori asks, staring at Jade as she grabs her dress to change, a pinkish shade to Jade's dark green.
"It's the only one they had in my size when I got it." Jade says, a partial lie. They had other dresses in her size, but it was the only one she liked.
"But why the hair?" Tori asks, removing her robe, showing the other two girls the back of her strapless bra and bikini cut underwear, and slipping the dress on.
"It's a good style." Jade says, standing up to help Tori zip her dress so Cat can take a quick shower before getting dressed. "Here, turn around." She demands, helping Tori fix the front of the dress so it fits better. What Tori doesn't see, thanks to her hair getting into her face from Jade turning her around, is Jade slip a piece of shrimp from her hand down the front of Tor's dress, slipping it into the center of the bra cups, before lifting the dress up. "Turn around again." She says, turning her back around to zip up the dress.
"Would you stop? I'm getting dizzy." Tori asks, fixing her hair.
"That's the point." Jade says, zipping up the dress fully, sounding cryptic. "What perfume you wearing?" She asks, patting Tori on the back, between her shoulder blades.
"Don't know yet." Tori says, wobbling a bit from the rapid spinning Jade made her do. "Where'd Cat go?" She asks, not knowing the redhead went to shower.
"Quick shower before she got dressed. She was too busy helping us with our hair and make-up to take one." Jade answers, grabbing a bottle of perfume, one she doesn't recognize but likes the scent, from Tori's dresser and hands it to her. "Use this." She says, grabbing a small bottle of perfume from her bag and spritzing some on. "What do you think?" She asks, leaning forward so Tori can smell her neck.
"It's good." Tori says, blushing at the close proximity. "It suits you." She says, pulling back. "And me?" She asks, tilting her head after spritzing some perfume on herself.
"Good. What is that? Lavender mixed with it or something?" Jade asks, purposely asking her question in Tori's ear with a whisper.
"Uh, no. No." Tori says, her blush growing, as she takes a step back. "I don't know what's all in it. It was a gift from my mom a couple of years ago for my birthday, but I never used it until now." She says, clearing her throat.
"Tori? What's this?" Cat asks, coming out of the shower with one of Tori's robes on, a familiar 'item' in hand.
"When did you get that?" Jade asks, eyeing the black rubber vibrator in Cat's hand, glancing at Tori.
"Nothing." Tori says quickly, grabbing the vibrator from Cat and putting it under her bed. "And none of your business." She tells Jade, fixing her dress. "Get ready and I'll do your make-up, okay?" She asks Cat, ignoring Jade.
'Damn. Didn't know Vega used things like that.' Jade thinks to herself, watching as Tori helps Cat with her dress and make-up. "So, any of you have a date?" She asks, licking her lips when Tori glances up at her.
"Oh, crap. I knew I forgot something." Tori says, sighing as she does Cat's lipstick. "You?" She asks the Goth and redhead.
"No. Just decided to hang out and mess with everyone." Jade says as Cat goes on about her date Tug, some football player she met at Bed, Bath, & Yonder a couple of days ago.
"What do you mean, mess with everyone?" Tori asks, finishing Cat's make-up and helping her style her hair.
"You'll see." Jade says with a smirk. "So, is Tug picking you up or something?" She asks Cat, changing the subject.
A half hour later, after the three finish getting ready and head downstairs, there's a knock at the door. "Who is that?" Tori asks, about to stand up before Cat gets up and runs to the door.
"Tug!" She says, hugging the tall boy in a bluish-grey tux.
"Hey. Why the change of location to pick you up?" Tug asks, hugging the shorter redhead.
"I was helping my friends and didn't pay attention to the time. So I texted you so you know." Cat says, releasing Tug from her hug.
"Oh. Do they need a ride?" Tug asks, not minding the change.
"No. We're good." Jade says from her spot on the couch."Go on ahead." She says, waving them off.
"What just happened?" Tori asks, still standing by the couch after Cat and Tug left.
"Cat told her date where to pick her up, they left." Jade says simply, shrugging. "Ready?" She asks, standing up.
"Uh, yeah." Tori says, shaking her head a bit. "I hope Andre's date stops making out with him long enough to help me with any last minute ideas. Which I was supposed to do an hour ago, but you somehow tricked me into staying to help." She says, following Jade to the door.
"Like it was hard." Jade says, walking out the door. "All I asked was if you wanted to help Cat and I, and you said yes." She says, heading for her car.
"Yeah, while you were already half naked with a bra smaller than you should wear." Tori mumbles as she gets to Jade's passenger seat.
"What was that?" Jade asks, starting her car.
"Nothing. Just thinking out loud." Tori says quickly, not looking at Jade.
A little over five minutes later, the duo get out of Jade's car and take the short walk to the prome going on, mixing with the dancing teens easily.
"You're late." Andre says, his date holding his arm as she tries to kiss him. "Not now, baby." He says with a smile, making little effort to push her back.
"Blame Jade." Tori says, sighing. "Anything I need to know about?" She asks, looking around.
"Nah. All's good." Andre says as his date starts pecking his cheek. "Just had to worry about Sinjin and him licking a balloon, but that's taken care of." He says, slight irritation in his eyes from his date's constant need to kiss him.
"Okay. Good." Tori says, nodding. "Where'd Jade go?" She asks, looking around when she doesn't see the Goth.
"She's like a ninja or something." Andre says, amusement in his tone. "I could've sworn she was right beside you." He says, not seeing a sign of her.
"Yeah." Tori says slowly, shaking her head. "What?" She asks, seeing the way Andre's looking at her.
"Can you get us some punch?" Andre asks his date, smiling as she agrees with a slight frown on her face. "Why did you two arrive together?" He asks once his date is out of earshot, a smirk growing on his face.
"We helped each other, her, me, and Cat, get ready, and after Cat's date picked her up, she drove us here. Nothing to worry about." Tori says, shaking her head.
"Oh, yeah. Three beautiful young women, one of which has a crush on one of the others, getting changed and what-not in front of each other. Sure there's nothing to worry about?" Andre asks, chuckling.
"Shut up." Tori says, slapping his arm. "What about you? You're date hasn't stopped kissing you since last week." She counters, a small smile of her own.
"Yeah, but we're dating." Andre counters back. "And yeah, she's an amazing kisser, but that's all we do. We don't talk, listen to music, nothing. Whenever we're together, whether alone or with others, her lips are on mine. To her, I'm just a pair of sweet, buttery lips." He says, getting it all out quickly.
"And you're complaining?" Tori asks with a raised eyebrow.
"Kinda. It'd be nice to talk to someone without worrying about them kissing me." Andre says, turning around to see his date waiting in a, surprisingly, long line for punch.
"What do you think we're doing?" Tori asks, looking around the Asphalt Café. Before she can say anything else, the light shut off and, on the big screen the previously had a sign that said 'Hollywood Arts' Prome' on it, a creepy video, with accompanying music, plays. "What the…" Tori asks, staring at the creepy video on the screen. "Wait a minute." She says, knowing what Jade meant by 'messing with everyone' earlier. "I'll be back." She says, stomping away.
A few minutes later, she finds Jade grabbing a drink from the Wahoo Punch machine. "What's got your undies in a twist?" Jade asks with a smirk when Tori stops in front of her.
"Are you done?" Tori asks as Jade takes a sip.
"No, I'm still pretty thirsty." Jade says, moving the can down a bit, pretending not to know what Tori's talking about.
"Oh, really?" Tori asks sarcastically, grabbing the can from Jade's hand.
"Give it back." Jade says with a small glare at the half-Latina standing before her.
"Oh, you want it back?" Tori asks, starting to lick around the lip of the can, starting with where Jade's lips were when she took her sip, and making sure to lick the part where the punch comes out, being careful not to cut herself, before handing it back to Jade.
"Thanks." Jade says, taking a sip, not minding Tori's saliva over the top of the can. "So, what's got you so pissy?" She asks, showing no care for what she just did, amused by Tori's partial grimace from Jade taking a sip.
"Shut off the creepy video, turn off the creepy music, and turn the lights back on." Tori says, crossing her arms.
"Not yet." Jade says, a smirk growing on her face.
"Why? What did I do to make you do this?" Tori asks, raising her hands and dropping them dramatically to her sides.
"I was supposed to put on a play tonight. 'Clowns Don't Bounce'. Remember?" Jade asks, taking a few steps back to lean against the Wahoo Punch machine.
"Oh, crap." Tori says, eyes widening. "I am so sorry. Sikowitz said today was the only time to do it. He didn't say anything about a play supposed to be set up for tonight, and you didn't tell me either." She says, letting out a groan. "I am so sorry." She repeats, feeling bad.
"The video, music, and lights were payback. Don't let it happen again." Jade says, pulling her phone out of her cleavage, a hidden smirk when she catches Tori staring and a blush form on the tanned girl's cheeks, and sending a quick text. "There. I told Sinjin to shut everything off. You got off easy, Tori." She says, putting her phone back between her cleavage.
"Why do you put it there?" Tori asks, nodding towards Jade's breasts.
"I don't know." Jade says, shrugging as she takes another sip. "Why is there a shrimp in your bra?" She asks, walking away.
"What shrimp in my…" Tori goes to ask, stopping when she feels it after twisting her body. Reaching down the front, she fishes, no pun intended, the shrimp out from between her breasts and stares at it. "What the…? When did…" She goes to ask, turning to face Jade. When she doesn't see the Goth, she tosses the shrimp in the trash and goes to follow Jade, not knowing that the Goth took a different turn and watched from the side, like how she, Tori, and Cat did earlier in the week when the spied Andre and his date kissing by Jade's locker.
"Damn. I wanted to eat that shrimp." Jade says to herself as she watches Tori go down the hall that leads back to the Asphalt Café.
I'm trying to get 'Terror On Cupcake Street' figured out, but so far, most of my attempts take a dark twist, which is what I want to avoid for this fic. I'll try to figure it out, but if not, the next won't be based on any episodes.
Thank you for reading. Hoped you like it.
Blessed Be.
