Chapter seven: Bad start to a beautiful day!
Tori:
Tori couldn't believe that Jade would do that to her, yes she understood that Jade probably didn't bring the right money with her but why couldn't she let Tori help? Then there was the fact that Jade had gone to all that trouble to make sure they were the only people in there (apart from the staff of course)
Jade must have known before going how expensive it was going to be, so why hadn't she been able to pay? Tori wondered the next morning as she waited for her self-absorbed sister Trina to Finnish using the bathroom so she could use it.
"Trina, hurry up!" Tori shouted as she banged on the door like a crazy person
"Alright, Alright. Calm down" Trina said, opening the door to reveal a very messy bathroom with make-up and hair products scattered in the sink and a soaking wet towel just abandoned on the floor.
"Eh, Trina. What about this mess?" Tori said, feeling really angry
"Can you clean it up, I've just done my nails" Trina said, running to her room leaving Tori really pissed off now, she hated feeling pissed off but it was becoming a regular occurrence in her life these days. She sighed as she switched on the shower
"What a surprise, no hot water" Tori muttered to herself as she tested the water with her hand. Why was life so annoying? She found herself asking as she resolved to clean up after her annoying sister.
"What took you so long?" Trina asked Tori as she stepped into the car that morning
"Your stupid mess, I had to skip showering because you used up ALL of the hot water! I look a mess!" Tori explained angrily as she fastened her seatbelt
"God Tori, Think of your-self much?" Trina said, starting the engine earning a Jade like glare from her younger sister, it felt weird how much Jade was rubbing off on her.
When they arrived at school Tori stalked of slamming the car door behind her, She walked into school to find Cat and Robbie, cuddling and it melted away her foul mood for a while until she noticed Jade walk in that is
"Tori" she heard Jade's voice and she wanted so bad to turn around and take pity on the fact that Jade sounded so needy and desperate, but she stood her ground and kept her word that she wouldn't speak to the Goth until she made up for last night.
"Tori, please" Came Jade's voice but tori ignored the voice in her head telling her to turn around because she didn't want to be one of those 'forgive too easily' type of people. She knew she had been in the past but where had that got her? Tori walked away fighting back the urge to cry and made her way to her first class which was R&B vocals.
Jade:
Jade felt completely and utterly stupid as she made her way to lunch. How was she going to explain to everyone that she'd fucked up big time, on their second proper date?
Everyone was sitting on their usual table, André was playing his keyboard, Cat was twiddling with her red hair and just being Cat, Robbie was being awkward (no surprise there) and Beck was just acting casual as usual yet Tori was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Tori?" asked Jade taking a seat next to Cat
"I was going to ask you that question" André, said eyeing Jade suspiciously
"Umm she's kind of… umm … mad at me" Jade explained sadly, suddenly deciding she wasn't hungry anymore and pushed her food away
"Can I eat that?" asked Robbie, earning glares from Beck and André, but not from Cat as she was daydreaming.
"Why? What happened?" André asked, worriedly
"I Happened" Jade sighed heavily getting up to leave their table.
"Jade, Wait" Came Becks worried voice but she ignored it and headed straight for the janitors closet she needed to feel better and she needed to do it alone where nobody would find her. She had her scissors at the ready as she opened the janitor's closet door to find Tori was in there crying. It seemed like they had the same idea.
"Umm, Sorry" Mumbled Jade turning to leave but was caught off-guard by Tori who had grabbed her arm
"Wait" Tori said, as Jade turned back to face her
"I need to know, why you couldn't afford that bill. I mean you must have known it would be expensive as you had gone to all that trouble, why didn't you pay?" Asked Tori
"I-I, Had the money ready and the waiter said that he'd give me a discount but He lied to me, and that's not even the worst part I kind of did pay, unintentionally though…" started Jade as Tori gave her a puzzled look.
"What do you mean?" asked Tori, now really interested in what the girl had to say
"I kind of bought you this, bracelet and it cost me a bomb but I accidently paid for it with the restaurant money and then left it there by accident, I went by this morning when I realised but the guy won't give it back unless I pay him back with interest and well I already went over on my allowance this week and so…" Jade explained
"You bought me a bracelet?" Tori asked shocked
"Yeah, a charm bracelet and it was soo beautiful way better than that Stephan got you that time, I was sure you'd like it but now I guess it's too late" Jade explained, as tears sprang down her face at the realization that she may not get to give it to Tori
"Jade, don't cry! I can pay the bill for you" Tori offered
"I can't let you do that, Tori. I'm sorry but I did say it was my treat and it doesn't or wouldn't feel right If I let you pay for it" Jade said
"It'll still be you're treat! You can pay me back! Look at it this way if I pay it now then you won't have to pay interest later, Come on. Its common sense here, I was under the impression you had lots of that" Tori said, wiping jades tearful face
"I guess that does make sense" agreed Jade, as they hugged each other and all the worry and panic jade was feeling seemed to dissolve into nothingness as she was in the arms of someone she really truly loved.
Tori:
After school Jade drove Tori back to the restaurant and they both walked in nervously and found the waiter from last night.
"Look, I told you. No money. No bracelet" The waiter said, and Tori was caught off guard by the nasty unwelcome tone he was using.
"I have the money" Tori said, searching in her bag for her purse
"Here it is" She said handing the man $400. He half snatched it out of her hand and counted the money clearly not trusting her, He nodded approvingly and searched into his pocket for a small tiffany's box and went to hand it to Tori, but was taken aback as Jade had taken it from his hand without realising it. Tori looked at her puzzled
"What? I wanted to give it to you myself" Jade excused, putting it in her own pocket and starting to walk out the restaurant followed by a very eager Tori.
They sat in Jade's car for a while, in silence before Tori could no longer contain her excitement
"Can I see it now?" She begged Jade who was now smirking at her
"Yes! Calm down" Jade said, reaching in her pocket for the box, she handed it to Tori who was now really excited by the fact it was from Tiffany's. Tori undid the white ribbon and lifted the lid of the blue box to reveal a Link clasp bracelet in sterling silver; she twirled it around looking at the three charms it already had an disk charm with "I love you" engraved on it, followed by a tennis racquet charm, and the last charm was a sterling silver cupcake with pink enamel Finnish on it.
"Do you like it? I mean I got the cupcake because of that time we got stuck in the cupcake and the tennis racquet because of the Ping-Pong scam, they didn't have anything else that was close to Ping-Pong and the I love you charm was because I love you and…" Jade rambled on but was cut off my Tori who had leaned over to kiss her for the first time that day.
"I'll take that as a yes, then" Jade said, as they pulled away
"Yes, Jade I love it! Thank you so much!" Tori said happily as she tried to put it on her wrist
"Here, allow me" Jade offered and Tori blushed uncontrollably as she did so
"I love you, too by the way" Tori said simply, earning a very over-joyed look from Jade
"I know" She replied, before starting up the engine of the car
"I mean like really love you; I don't know what I'd do without you. You make me feel so happy and you're just amazing in every way. I just can't imagine living another day without being with you, I wouldn't be able to cope" explained Tori as Jade switched up gears
"Well I'm not going anywhere" Jade reassured her causing Tori to smile at her girlfriend
