A/N: Chapter 5 This one's a little weird, it's in Tori's perspective, so bear with me. By the way, this chapter is pretty long.

Tori's POV

Cat left shortly after we talked, and she looked a little happier, but scared at the same time. It's actually hard to see a sad Cat, it almost always makes you want to comfort her. I know these past few weeks have been both new and scary for her, and she's swimming in open water. I also feel kind of sorry for her, and it makes me want to get involved.

Anyway, I told Cat I was going to talk to Jade for her, at first she was freaked out, but she soon warmed up to the idea. So now I'm on my way to Jade's house; I got her address from Cat. By the time I got there, the sun was pretty much already down, keep in mind, this is the same day. I walked up the steps and began to knock on the door. I waited until a woman, who I'm assuming to be Jade's mom, answered the door.

She gave me this look and asked "Who are you and why are you here?".

"Uh... I'm here to see your daughter, we have a uh... Assignment for school, and I promised her I would be here as soon as possible." I say, hoping she'll believe that crap of a situation.

She looked kind of surprised that I said that, she replied with "Oh, I didn't even know Jade cared for assignments, you should probably get up there, it's up the stairs, and first door to your right."

I thanked Jade's mother, and I made my way up the stairs, they creaked a little under my feet. I made it to her door and began to knock. I heard shuffling in the room, which led me to believe Jade was their. However, the door slowly crept open. "Vega! What are you doing in my house!"

"Well... According to your mom, we're doing an assignment for school. According to me we're going to talk." I say in my most serious tone of voice.

"Why would I do that! Besides, you are wasting your time here." she says coldly.

I looked at her and said "Hear me out, if we talk for 5 minutes, I'll leave when that time is up, but if not, I'll just stand here knocking on your door until I annoy you so much, you'll just let me in anyway." I said with a smile on my face. She muttered words under her breath, but she let me into her room anyway.

I noticed her room was pretty dark, and she had a few candles aligned around the room, they weren't lit. I found a spot with a chair and seated myself, not exactly seeking approval from her. She became annoyed, as far as I can tell since I was looking around her room curiously. "Now talk Vega, I don't have time for you."

I gave her a mean look and said "It's about Cat... You know she's really hurting inside... Right?"

"Tori, this is none of your fucking business, stay out of it." she growled through clenched teeth.

"I can't, it's too late, you broke a girl that was already fragile, now you need to fix her!" I began to say a little louder.

"Why should I? I don't like her the way she wants me to, and it's awkward to just be friends. I really can't deal with this." Jade said, looking around.

"Because... Because she loves you, more than you know. This is why you rejecting her hurts her so much." I notice she winced at the word love. "Why are you hurting her so much?"

She looked at me, and for a moment, it looked like she was just as broken as Cat is. "It's none of your fucking business, you don't need to know."

"Why are you hurting her?" I repeated, hoping I would get an answer that didn't include the word fucking. (A/N: LOL Not what you think.)

She paced around her room, grabbing at the roots of her hair. "I-I don't know why I do it, the words just come out of my mouth. I mean, it's not like I hate her.. So I don't know why I do it. Okay?"

She was freaking out by that time, I could already tell. "But if you don't hate her why are you doing this to her?" I notice I sounded more like a therapist than I do myself.

"B-because... I'm scared okay.?" she said just above a whisper.

"You! Scared!" I scoffed. I didn't even think it was possible. "Of what?" I asked, curious as to what her answer would be.

"Of myself" is all she said.

"Wait, why would you be..." I said trailing off. I really needed to think about this. Why would she be scared of herself? So much that she's hurting Cat because of it? Is she scared of how this situation is affecting her, or how she feels about it? "Why exactly are you scared of yourself?" I ask, needing to get answers.

She opened her mouth to say something, but closed it, and just looked at me. "Do you feel anything for her?" I ask.

"What the fuck Tori? Of course I feel something for her, I said i didn't hate her." she said in a tone that I didn't even know she had. Sympathy.

I still don't get it. Why would she be treating Cat like his if she doesn't hate her? I can understand how she would be treating Cat like hat I she didn't care for her, but she does. She's too scared of herself to be nice to Cat, is that it? Wait, back up here Tori, look at the way she got all defensive when I asked if she felt anything towards her. Wait, that's it! "You know that's not what I mean Jade, do you feel anything towards Cat?" she's looking at me at that time, and I know she's scared.

"Wh-Why would I?" I noticed she's nervous and stammering. She's lying, I can tell.

Huh. Now I get it! She scared of herself because he feel the way she does about Cat. She doesn't hate Cat... I think she loves her. "Jade... We both know you're lying, as much as you want to fool yourself, you can't fool me." she wasn't answering, I must have been right. "What are you scared of? If Cat loves you, and you feel the same way, what's the problem?" I really didn't see the need for useless drama like this.

"You think I want to feel this way? About a girl no less! Fuck... Every time I see her, these things inside of me, and it makes my heart beat faster. I really hate it.." I get it. She's scared of the way she's feeling, she's scared of what will happen next, and what the future holds.

"But Jade... You can't exactly help the way you feel... Don't be ashamed of it..." I really wanted to help them, because at this rate, nothing was going to happen between them. Jade will continue to lie to herself, and Cat will live on as a shell of her former self until she finally is over Jade.

"What about Beck? I don't even know...!" She was really freaking out now, she has hid her feelings back for so long, and now it's then I realize she's just as broken as Cat is.

Hm. "Beck's not stupid Jade, I'm already sure he's pieced together what has happened. He might even be expecting it. Just talk to him about it." I told her honestly. I cant help but notice she looks kind of relieved, like a weight has been lifted off her shoulders.

"I never thought I'd say this to you but... Thanks... I guess." she said rubbing the back of her neck, and almost smiling.

"Wow... Jade West having any feelings? Wow..." I say, half joking.

"Shut up Vega... And don't tell anyone about this or I'll kill you. I'm not even joking..." I'm actually scared. "Oh. Don't think that were friends. We're not... You just helped me... Realize something"

"I get it. You need to talk to her though, and Beck. You have a lot to do, and if you don't take care of business, I'll be mad." I pause. "Ha! Did you notice that we talked for way longer than five minutes!"

She chuckled, "Now get out. I'll handle what needs to be handled. I'm still kind of fearful though."

"Okay, okay I'm leaving. See you at school okay Jade?" I then got up from the chair and made my way out the door.

Just before I left she said "Don't tell her. I want to do it myself."

"Aww." I say on my way out and I'm sure I heard her say "Fuck you" but then again I'm not sure. I made my way out the front door, and then outside. I went home after that, today has been a long day.

I fell asleep as soon as I hit my pillow. Luckily Cat didn't call me that night, I couldn't exactly tell her what happened tonight. Time will show what happens between those two, I just hope Jade does the right thing.

A/N: So... What did you think? Plot twist much? Maybe not haha.
