Obviously I didn't do one of these disclaimers in the last chapter. Go ahead and leave a suggestion for what you want, I may keep it in mind as we go along. I know certain characters haven't shown up much, but they'll kind of flow in as the story progresses. I don't have much of a storyline in mind, so I write what comes to me. Tell me if you want to meet Gavin's bandmates, maybe a relationship you want to see, an OC suggestion, stuff along those lines. Anyway, review and give me your opinion, suggestions on how to write characters (especially Cat and Trina), and know that I'm not ending this anytime soon. I don't own Victorious, Dan Schneider does. I can only wish I did. I'll stop rambling now.

Chapter 2: The First Day, or, Abnormality

Robbie's POV:

I turned around, and started talking, "Alright, if you'll just follow me, I'll show you to your locker."

"Lead on, my good man!" Gavin replied.

"Like he's good at anything," Rex piped up, "Never has been, never will be."

"Rex, you're gonna take some getting used to."

Tori's POV:

I heard an unfamiliar voice from around the corner, "Rex, you're gonna take some getting used to."

Tossing the rest of my books in my locker, I closed it and peeked around the corner. Standing next to Robbie was a kid wearing a light green v-neck shirt, some grey skinny jeans, glasses, and a black beanie. He had headphones hanging out of his shirt, with one in his right ear. That must be Robbie's cousin, I thought to myself. Suddenly, I heard Lane's voice over the intercom.

"Will Robbie Shapiro please report to my office? Thank you."

Gavin's POV:

Crap. Who's gonna show me around now?

"Ah, sorry dude. I forgot that I had an appointment with Lane this morning. I think I told you, he's the counselor."

"It's cool dude. Could you possibly find someone to help me around for now?"

"Maybe I could help you out," a girl's voice jumped in. I turned to see who had spoken up.

WOW. She is freaking hot. I could get used to LA if it's like this everywhere. The girl was a thin Latina, with longish brown hair and incredible cheekbones.

"Whew, you're a life saver. See you later, man." Robbie and I shook hands, and he headed off.

Tori's POV:

As Robbie passed me, I could hear Rex ask Robbie, "Why couldn't you leave me with the attractive one? All I get are Northridge girls."

I smirked and stuck out my hand, greeting the kid, "Hey, I'm Tori Vega. I take it you're Robbie's cousin?"

He flipped his hair out of his eyes and accepted the handshake, "Yeah, my name's Gavin Baker. So I take it I'm expected?" He gave me a laid back smile.

"To a point. Robbie told our little group about you on Thursday."

Gavin's POV:

I wish Robbie had let me know that. Oh well, too late now.

Tori spoke up again, "So what locker number do you have?"

"I have number 348. You know where that is?"

She winced. "Unfortunately, I do. That's right next to Jade. Let's hope that Beck's there."

"Are they a couple?" I asked.

"An odd one, to say the least." That caught my attention.

Beck's POV:

I saw Tori round the corner with a skinny boy in tow, who looked to be cleaning a pair of glasses. They seemed to be headed my way.

"Hey Beck!" Tori said with that bright smile of hers.

"What's going on, Tori?" I said with a smile.

She looked around warily, "Have you seen Jade?"

I was just gonna ask you the same thing. "You know, I haven't. She hasn't replied to any of my texts, either."

"Well in that case. . ." she motioned to the locker next to Jade's, "There you go."

"Thanks," the kid said with a sincere smile, "I really appreciate it."

Tori opened her mouth to speak, but I beat her to the punch, "Aren't you going to introduce me to your new friend here?"

"OHMYGOSHIMSOSORRY!" Tori said with a surprised look on her face, "Beck, this is Gavin Baker. He's Robbie's cousin? Gavin, this is. . ."

So this was Robbie's cousin. From the looks of him, Robbie may not have been too far off with the 'cool' statement. "I'm Beckett Oliver, better known around here as Beck," I interrupted Tori.

"Nice to meet you man," he said. That smile may have even grown a bit, "I'm looking forward to this year."

The bell rang, the different notes seeming to throw Gavin off.

"You get used to it," I said with a grin, "The bell is actually one of the more normal things here."

Tori spoke up, "What class do you have first?"

He looked at his schedule, and said, "Acting class, with. . . Sikowitz."

"No way!" said Tori.

He looked at me, and I explained, "That's our first period too. Now that's something you'll need time to figure out."

Thoughts? You know, the whole review thing.
