Jade POV
I watch Beck and Victoria talking to each other, Jordan and Cat standing close by. Jordan looks like she's ready to hit Beck for some reason, which causes me to smile somewhat. Cat looks uncomfortable, leading me to believe there's an argument happening. She never liked them. Remember her passing out when Beck and I had an argument because of Sinjin's stupid game show? Exactly. As I get closer, I hear Beck say that I was coming over to them for him. Well, He's right. To a point.
I walk over to them and stop by Beck, a few feet to his right.
"Beck, I need to talk to you. In private." I say, looking him in the eyes.
"Sure." He says smugly. "Let's go over here." He hooks his arm with mine and leads me to the side of the stage, letting me go but still stands about a foot in front of me.
"Stop talking to Victoria."
"No problem. I don't like her anyway."
"Don't talk to me anymore either."
"Excuse me?" He says, confusion and anger in his voice.
"You used me, and tossed me aside when I didn't you what you wanted. I want nothing to do with you anymore."
"But that song?"
"Was not for you. You didn't fight for me. You fought against me the entire time. I put up with it because I thought I loved you. Now, I'm walking away." I walk away, but I only make it a few steps before I feel him grab my arm and pull me back.
"I never fought you. Besides, who else would you go to. Everyone's afraid of you, remember?"
I watch him as he gives a slight laugh. I pull myself away from him and give him a smirk, one he recognizes well. "Did you or did you not admit to making me jealous? Did you or did you not admit to wanting me for sex? And you're wrong. Not everyone's afraid of me. But you should be."
I turn and walk away again when I see the stunned look on his face. Bet he didn't expect me to throw our past yelling match at him. Oh well. I get close to where the three girls are, but stopping when I hear Beck yell something I never thought I'd hear him say.
"Yeah, run to your dyke bitch! No one else wants you!"
I don't notice that someone runs past me. I'm too stunned at his words. I hear something that sounds like a hard punch, but I don't react. I do react when I hear Cat in front of me.
"Are you okay, Jade?" I glance at her when I hear her voice. It sounds like she's upset at something, but I'm not sure what.
"How could he say something like that? He never used a word like that before."
"He changed, Jadey. Come on, let's get you a seat."
I don't say anything after that, I just follow her to a nearby bench that was set up for spectators to sit on. I don't know why his words hurt me so much, but they did.
I feel another presence, and when I look up, I'm surprised to see Victoria looking at me with pain in her eyes.
"Want me to kill him?"
I laugh at her response, calming down after a few seconds. "No. Who got hit?" I ask, keeping my mind focused elsewhere for now.
"Beck. Jordan hates that word, so she decked him. One punch, and the dumb bastard was out cold. It kinda sucked. I was hoping he would last longer."
"Your girlfriend hit him? Tell her I said thanks." I say, avoiding her gaze.
"Who said we were dating?" I look up when she asks her question, silently watching her eyes. "We've never dated."
"But, you called her your girl and you two flirted with each other all the time." I glance over to where Cat was, ready to ask her if she saw it all too, but she wasn't there. I look back to Victoria, who's smiling.
"She's like a sister to me. She likes to flirt. Besides, she has her eyes on someone else."
"What do you mean? And where did Cat disappear to?"
"Oh, Cat went over to Jordan to hang out. And let's just say, they enjoy each other's company. Who was the song for?" She asks, changing gears.
"You. No matter what, you were always there for me. You fought for me, and I let you down. I'm sorry Tori. I mean, Victoria."
"Don't apologize. I let you down too. When you said all those things after the party, I was heartbroken. I wanted to call you the next day, especially when Cat told me you looked like you regretted them the second they left you lips. Victoria isn't the real me, anyway. Tori's still here, she just hides away so she can't get hurt."
"Well, I miss Tori. Any chance she'll come back out of hiding soon?" I ask, joking around but still serious.
"Maybe. It won't be easy, and Victoria is way too much fun to get rid of." She says with a laugh at the end.
"Well, I hope she does. I'm gonna go. See ya later Vega." I say, not getting up to leave though.
"Back to last names, huh West?"
"Doesn't sound good when you do it." I say, smiling because she's acting like herself again. "If Tori ever does come back, tell her to keep the bike and clothes. The look good on her." I get up and go to walk away, stopping to say bye, when I feel a pair of lips on mine. My eyes automatically close out of instinct, and I enjoy the feeling. After a few moments, the other pair of lips pull away, and I open my eyes, shocked when I see Vega standing there looking at me.
"See you later West." She says as she walks by me, a smile on both of our faces.
"Tori?" I say when she gets some distance, smiling wide when she stops and turns to face me. "You want to get some dinner?"
She smiles and takes a step towards me. "Yeah. Let me tell Jay. You bring your car?"
"Yeah, why?" I see the smirk on her face when she asked, so I'm a little hesitant to hear her answer.
"I'll swing you by after we eat then. Come on."
I follow her as she heads to Jordan and Cat, who look good standing side by side, I admit. Tori tells them that we're going to grab some food, and they tell us okay as we head to the parking lot. I see her bike and I smile when I realize what she was talking about a moment ago. She climbs on her bike and I get on after her. She hands me a helmet and smiles as she puts hers on.
"Why do you have a second helmet?"
"Cat wanted to ride it earlier. She decided against it when I pulled in earlier."
"Her loss." I say as I put my helmet on after her, holding her waist tight.
We smile as we head out of the parking lot, riding towards Nozu for sushi. This is a good start for us I think.
I know the Jori kinda came in quick, and I apologize. I'm not too sure on how much longer this will go on, so I tried to get them together.
Victoria will be gone in the next chapter, she'll be Tori again, and still have some Victoria traits, like the bike, clothes, and music choice. Her attitude and a lot of the music she listened too before will be the same.
I found out that my internet is getting shut off soon, so updates will be in the mornings, either tuesday or wedseday. There're no good wireless spots by me, and the best choice is my local library. Until next time. Please review.
