Okay, so I said it would be a lot earlier than this for me to update, but I apologize. I just got back in town from a small trip I took last week. So without further ado, thank you for your patience, and here is the next chapter of We're Friends, Reluctantly.
I do not own Victorious.
Chapter 16
Jade's POV
It was my last class of the day, and I found myself staring at the clock with anticipation of the final bell ringing. It felt like I had been trapped in here for hours. Each second that passed seemed to be slower than the last.
"Ugh, there is still 10 minutes left, and I still don't know what I am going to say to Robbie. I have spent the majority of my day avoiding him, and thinking about how to do this."
I got so lost in my daydreaming that I almost didn't hear the bell ring, and once I saw everyone leaving the room, I grabbed my bag, shoved my book in it, and darted out of the classroom, not caring who I ran over in the process.
I only had one thing on my mind…
I had to find Robbie Shapiro.
Robbie's POV
For some reason, this last class was taking a really long time to end. I'm not usually the one to not pay attention in class, but for some reason I couldn't help it. I was thinking about what I was going to say to Jade.
"I really have to be careful as to what I am going to say. Jade isn't your average girl. If I am going to ask her out, it has to be perfect. I just don't know where to start."
I am not sure how long I was thinking about it for, but after what felt like around 10 minutes or so, the bell rang, and I got up and ran as fast as I possibly could.
There was only one thing that mattered to me at that point in time.
That one thing was finding Jade West.
Later outside of school (Robbie's POV)
I stood pacing by the front door of the school. I honestly can't think of another point in my life that I have been this anxious or nervous. All I wanted at the time was for Jade to appear so I could get this over with. A few minutes passed by, and finally, she walked out the doors. I took a deep breath, and walked up to where she was standing.
"Jade, I need to talk to you about something."
Jade's POV
"Robbie, I need to talk to you about something."
After laughing at the fact that we said it at the same time, I put my serious face back on. I was ready to do this. I was ready to ask Robbie Shapiro out.
"Umm, well, I am honestly not sure how to say this. Would you mind taking a walk with me?"
He nodded his head, and we walked to the park that was a few blocks away from the school. I made my way to the big oak tree over by a small pond and sat down, and Robbie did the same. I took a deep breath, and hoped that this would work out perfectly.
"I like you."
For the second time today, Robbie and I spoke at the same time. This time though, neither one of us was laughing. We both just stood there and looked in shock.
"Are you serious?"
He nodded his head.
"Yeah, I am. I have liked you for quite some time actually."
For what felt like the millionth time in the past few days, I was completely speechless. I had never expected this to happen. I took in everything I had just heard, and realized that now there was only one thing left to do…..
That was when I felt Robbie kissing me. It was a kiss filled with passion, and much more passion than I had ever felt in my life. Don't get me wrong, Beck was a good kisser. There was just a spark that I never felt with Beck that there is with Robbie. It feels warm, loving, like I'm never going to be alone.
He pulled away a few seconds later.
"So I guess were dating now?"
I smiled bigger than I had ever smiled in my life.
"I guess so."
Well, there you have it, Hollywood Arts has a new couple. Also, we have reached the end of We're Friends, Reluctantly. But don't fret, your voices have been heard, and there will be a sequel. I am actually thinking about this being a three part series. You as an audience have been fantastic, and I don't know how to thank you. Be keeping a look out for the next addition to my series, We're Lovers, Willingly.
