I hope you guys are enjoying this story. Not a lot of Bade for this chapter, sorry. A lot of Tori, and some Sikowitz.
Chapter 4: What is Goung On?
Tori is a little bit apprehensive about riding to school with Jade. But she figures that it will be a good opportunity to find out if Jade has really changed or if she's just pretending to be nice. A few "Driving Tori Crazy" references here, and also reference to one of Robbie's latest slap updates.
***Monday. 7:18am. Tori's house***
Jade arrives at Tori's house just in time to pick her up. She sends Tori a text message that says I'm right outside
Tori: Ok, today I will find out if Jade really has changed or if it was just an extended effect of the pain meds. Or in the worst case scenario if she's just lying about all this.
(Tori leaves her house. Gets inside Jade's car)
Tori: Hi Jade. Thanks for offering to take me to school today.
Jade: No problem. Let's go.
Tori: No wait…umm, before we go I just wanted to know how you're feeling (smiles)
Jade: Who me? I'm feeling great Tori, but thank you for asking. Now can we leave?
Tori: Sure, sure let's go.
(2 minutes later)
Tori: Umm, I like your car.
Jade: I am so glad
Tori: Did she just say "I am so glad"? Sounds strangely familiar
Tori: Hey, umm, I thought you didn't like driving during the day?
Jade: Oh, I already told you I prefer to drive at night..
Tori: Right
Jade: But you know…
Tori: Please don't say "anything for a friend"…
Jade:…anything for a friend
Tori: Oh no, the evil Jade is back. I am so dead
(Tori looks in the back seat)
Tori: Well, at least no shovel this time.
Jade: What did you say? (confused)
Tori: Oh, shoot, that wasn't supposed to be said out loud
Jade: Tori?
Tori: Yeah, um, sorry I don't know what's wrong with me today.
(At that moment, Jade takes an unexpected left turn)
Tori: Where is she going? This is not how we get to school from my house. Oh no, now I know what's happening. She's not going to bury me in the desert, she's going to kill me and dump me in some abandoned dumpster.
Jade: Hey Tori, I want to show you something (smirks)
Tori: WHAT? (panics) You want to show me something? No I don't want it, I just want to go to school. Please, please take me to school now.
Jade: Tori, what is wrong with you?
Tori: Look, I know I'm not your favorite person in the world but PLEASE don't kill me (freaks out)
Jade: What are you talking about? (very confused)
Tori: Oh Jade, I knew you were faking this personality change. I swear I won't tell anyone, but please just let me go unharmed (freaks out more)
Jade: Tori! All I want is to show you my favorite coffee place.
Tori: Yeah I…what? Coffee place? (confused)
Jade: Yes, this one right here (points to a coffee shop)
(Car parks in front of a nice coffee house)
Tori: What is this place?
Jade: A place I discovered a few months ago. One night I felt lonely and couldn't sleep, but Beck was too busy doing homework so while I was driving around this neighborhood I saw that this place was still open. Believe me, they have the best coffee ever.
Tori: Oh, I see (smiles, embarrassed)
Jade: You thought I was going to KILL you?
Tori: Well, yeah. I mean, last time you offered to take me to school you almost bury me in the desert
Jade: HAHAHA, silly Tori. I was just trying to scare you. I wasn't going to do anything bad to you. One time I tried to scare Robbie too. It worked, except he didn't jump out of the car like you did (laughs)
Tori: Oh, well now I'm embarrassed. So, how about we get some coffee from this magnificent place?
Jade: That's why we're here. Come on, my treat.
Tori: That's so nice.
(5 minutes later. Back on the road)
Tori: .GOD. Best coffee on earth!
Jade: I told you.
Tori: You know Jade, this has been a very pleasant ride, despite my previous outburst (laughs).
Jade: You're so funny. Anyway, we're here. Let's go inside.
Tori: Let's.
***Hollywood Arts Hallways. 7:40am***
Beck: Hi Jade.
(They kiss)
Jade: Hi honey. How are you doing this wonderful morning?
Beck: Good, as always. But now the question is how are YOU doing?
Jade: Honey, I'm fine. Really, I don't want you to worry about me, ok?
Beck: Ok fine. But at least let me carry your bag for you.
Jade: Well ok. We have Sikowitz first period. Let's hurry.
Beck: Coming.
(Sikowitz Class)
Sikowitz: Good morning children
Everyone: Hey.
Sikowitz: Ok so today I want to try something a little bit different. Andre, Beck up on the stage please.
Andre: Ok?
Beck: So, what do we do?
Sikowitz: You must improvise a scene. You will play husband and wife.
(Beck responds quickly)
Beck: I'll be the husband (raises hand)
Andre: Aww man.
Sikowitz: Now Jade, I don't want you to have another jealous outburst just because Beck is playing someone else's husband.
Jade: Why would I do that? I trust Beck with all my heart, I know he would never cheat on me.
Sikowitz: Wha…HAhaha. Wow Jade, you sounded very convincing there (laughs)
Jade: But I'm serious.
Sikowitz: What? (confused)
Jade: Look, I know I had trust issues in the past but I know Beck would never do something so horrible to me. And if he ever wants to leave me again, I will accept and respect his decision.
(Everyone is stunned)
Sikowitz: Ok, I don't know who you are but I want to know what you did with the REAL Jade.
Jade: I'm right here Sikowitz.
Sikowitz: Someone please explain?
Andre: Look, last Friday we went rock climbing…
Rex: And Beck let Jade fall on her head
Beck: That is NOT what happened.
Tori: It kinda is true.
Beck: I was supposed to spot Jade's climb, but as she was coming down I got distracted and just as I got distracted she fell down.
Rex: You let her fall man.
Beck: I did not. It was an accident.
Rex: You're more interested in David Letterman's gossip news.
Beck: SHUT UP.
Jade: Both of you, please stop.
Sikowitz: Jade? What do you have to say about this?
Jade: Look, I fell but it was an accident. And ever since I woke up I just don't feel like being mean to anyone. I realized that hurting other people's feelings is not good, and I learned to appreciate my wonderful friends
Cat: Awwww
Sikowitz: I see (serious)
Jade: And I also want to apologize to you, all those times I gave you attitudes I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be so bitchy all the time.
Sikowitz: That's ok. Don't worry about it.
Tori: Isn't she great now?
Sikowitz:…(no answer)
Beck: She was always great, but now she's great AND kind AND nice.
Jade: Thank you guys. I love you all
(Bell rings)
Sikowitz: Class dismissed
(Tori stays behind)
Tori: Hey, Sikowitz? Why are you being so serious about this? You always complain about Jade's attitude towards everyone and now she's nice and wonderful.
Sikowitz: Tori, she is nice indeed. But not wonderful.
Tori: Why would you say that? (confused)
Sikowitz: She was wonderful before, now she's just….average and normal.
Tori: So you're saying that the old Jade is better.
Sikowitz: The old Jade is the ONLY Jade. Her new personality is sweet, caring, nice, friendly, and to be honest I find that extremely boring.
Tori: Wait a minute. You always say that I'm sweet, caring, nice, and friendly.
Sikowitz: Yeah, so?
Tori: So in other words you think my personality is boring?
Sikowitz: Oh absolutely
Tori: Sikowitz! (angry)
Sikowitz: I told you so many times that you need to learn to take risks. And sometimes doing things that others disapprove of is the biggest risk a person can take.
Tori: So you want me to be like Jade? The old Jade I mean.
Sikowitz: Totally. That's why I've wanted you two to get along. You can learn a lot from her.
Tori: And I suppose there's nothing useful she can learn from me?
Sikowitz: Now you see my point. Bye.
(Sikowitz leaves)
Tori: I don't care what he thinks, I like the new Jade.
And with that, Tori leaves the classroom and into the hallways.
End of Chapter 4.
So, finally someone is not happy with the new Jade. Who will be next? And when will the old Jade make a comeback? Find out soon.
I PROMISE there will be Bade in the next few chapters. I felt that for now I needed to get others more involved. But Bade will be happening soon, I promise.
Let me know what you think. Reviews are welcome and greatly appreciated.
Love,
