I do not own Victorious
Chapter 10
Robbie's POV
The rest of the week passed by fairly quickly, and soon school was getting out for the weekend. I had called Andre earlier that week, and he told me he would be more than happy to help me out with a song for the showcase. So he came to my house an hour after school, and we went up to my room.
"I appreciate you coming over to help me. I know you're probably very busy with school as well as getting you and Tori ready for the showcase."
"It's cool man. Honestly, I was surprised that you asked. I didn't expect for you to want to enter, since your main talent was Rex, but hey, I am glad to be of any help I can."
I went to my closet and grabbed my guitar, got some paper and a pencil off my desk, and sat back down.
"So what did you have in mind", he asked.
"I am not sure exactly. I had a few things written previously, but I decided against them."
He stared in hard concentration for a minute, then looked up at me and had a look in his eye that said I have an idea.
"Mind if I see them? That is assuming you still have them."
I was confused as to how looking at some songs I had written and decided not to use would help with figuring out what to do for the showcase, but I looked in an old binder on my desk and pulled them out. He took them and looked over each, and then he came back to one, looked it over once more, and handed it to me.
"This is the one."
I looked down at the paper unsure. It was one of the first songs I had ever written, and I personally did not think it was all that good, but if Andre liked it enough, than I decided that I would follow his advice.
We spent the next hour or so just messing around, watching TV, talking about school, plans for college, and some other things. Andre looked at me after a while, and finally he opened his mouth to ask me his question.
"So man, what up with you and Jade? For someone who claimed to only tolerate you only a week and a half ago, you two seem to be best friends now."
The question somewhat caught me off guard, but I remained composed and said, "It's sort of a long story."
So I told him, I told him about leaving Tori's house and seeing Jade at the diner, told him about finding the picture of me and Jade from when we were kids, told him about her coming over the next day, about how I had to take her to school because her car broke down, about leaving school early after Beck told her about him and Tori dating, how she stayed at my house that night, and here we were.
Andre just kind of looked at me in deep thought for a while, taking in the story in detail. Finally he asked, "Do you have feelings for her?"
Honestly, I was not sure how to answer that question. I do have to admit to myself, I was beginning to think about Jade more than usual. I would find myself looking at her in class. I would wake up in the middle of the night from dreams about her. Ever since she spent the night at my house, I was not sure how I felt about her.
"I really am not sure. It's possible that I could, but I just don't know."
He gave me a look that said he understood and that was the end of the conversation. We continued to watch TV, and soon, Andre got a text from Tori. He read it and looked over at me.
"Tori says she is having a movie night, Beck and Cat are already there, want to go?"
I instantly said yes, but told him I was going to call Jade and see if she wanted to go. He nodded and proceeded to text Tori back telling her we were coming. I went out of the room and dialed Jade's number. After a few short rings, she picked up.
"Hey."
"Hey", I said back, "What are you doing tonight?"
"Eh, nothing really, why do you ask?"
"Well, Tori is having a movie night at her house, and everyone is going to be there. I was calling to see if you wanted to come."
She didn't say anything for a few seconds, and eventually she gave a heavy sigh, and said, "I guess so."
"Alright, me and Andre will be coming to pick you up shortly."
"Alright."
And with that, she hung up, and I headed back to my room.
"Jade said she is going to come as well, so we will have to go pick her up."
Andre just nodded, and got all of his school things, and after I finished getting ready, we were headed out the door, and driving off towards Jade's house.
We arrived at Jade's about ten minutes later. Andre stayed in the car while I walked up to the front door. After knocking three times, she came downstairs and opened the door. She was wearing jeans, a tee shirt, and a black jacket. She had blue and green streaks in her hair, and needless to say, she looked amazing. I shook my head at these thoughts, and she just gave me a small stare.
"So we ready to go or what?" she asked, slightly annoyed.
"Umm, yeah, let's go."
We headed out to my car, Jade got in the back seat, and we were headed to Tori's. The drive was silent for the most part, with the exception of Andre tapping out the beat to the music coming from the radio on the dash board. Jade spent the ride looking out the window. I was surprised she came along, seeing as Tori and Beck would both be there.
After the short ride, we were pulling into Tori's driveway. Andre got out, and ran to the front door. I stayed behind and walked with Jade.
"I can't believe you dragged me out hereā¦.. I hate her, and I hate him."
I just laughed as Jade made a sad little, pout-like face.
"You didn't have to come if you didn't want to, you know that right?"
She just rolled her eyes at me, and we walked into the front door.
Everyone looked surprised to see Jade there, and I think I may have seen a slight look of fear in Tori's eyes, but it disappeared quickly as she spoke up.
"Hey guys!"
"Hey Tori!" I said. Jade just made a small grunting noise, and proceeded to sit down on the couch opposite of Tori and Beck. I went and sat down next to her and Cat. Andre sat next to Beck, and Tori got up to search for a movie.
"What do y'all want to watch?"
Me, Beck, and Andre all said we didn't really care. Jade said something with blood and death (of course), and Cat wanted to watch something with cute, fuzzy animals (again, of course). Tori made a little face at Jade and Cat's suggestions, and she continued to look. After a while of not being able to find anything, Beck got up and randomly picked up one of my favorite movies of all time, Paranormal Activity.
"How about this?"
Everyone said sure, except Cat, who looked a little nervous.
"Isn't that, like, super scary?"
Andre walked over to her and sat down, "Don't worry Little Red, if you get scared, you can hold onto me, I don't mind."
Cat still seemed slightly nervous, but said okay, and Beck put the movie in.
Everyone sat on the edge of their seat, except Cat, who spent the majority of the time with her eyes closed sitting very close to Andre. At about the halfway point in the movie, the power all of a sudden went out.
We all sat there for a little while before Tori's mom came into the room with a flashlight.
"Well, the power is going to be out for a little while, there is a really bad storm going on right now. You are all more than welcome to stay here, because I don't want you kids to be out driving in all this."
Everyone nodded their heads in understanding, except Jade, who had a disgusted look on her face. I could tell she was angry. I knew she really didn't want to be there in the first place, and now she was going to have to stay the night in the same room with Tori and Beck.
Needless to say, it was going to be a long night.
AN: Oh damn me and these cliffhangers. Not to worry, as seeing as my internet is out tonight, I will be writing a few of these, so it won't really be much of a cliffhanger. I wonder what is going to happen at this unanticipated sleepover? Honestly, I don't really think I have any idea. Don't forget to leave me a review.
