Chapter 5 – It's about time!

One uploaded before I go to work, aren't I lovely.

Jade's POV

Thankfully my alarm automatically goes off every weekday morning at 6am; so we are both woken up in plenty of time to get ready for school. I turn the alarm off and try to go back to sleep, but trust Tori to be a morning person.

"Good morning, beautiful" I hear her say, way too cheerfully for so early in the morning. I really can't function properly without a coffee; but I manage to force my eyes open to see Tori sitting looking over me.

"Morning, babe" I mutter as cheerfully has I possible at such an ungodly time. She leans over and gives me a quick peck on my lips.

"I'll go make us some coffee" she smiles before literally skipping off and towards the kitchen. I drag myself off the sofa and start folding away the blankets. A few minutes later Tori returns with the mugs of coffee and passed one over to me. I stand and take a big mouthful of coffee before looking up to see Tori beaming at me.

"What are you looking at?" I smile

"You. Thank you for such a perfect first date"

"You're most welcome. Now come on, we have to get ready for school. You can wear something of mine."

We take our separate showers and get ready for school, I manage to find something a bit more colourful for Tori to wear. We get in my car and set off.

"Are we going to tell anyone about us yet?" she asks

"Do you want to?" I respond. I'm ready to tell them all, but I wouldn't do anything until we were both ready to let people know.

"Yeah, last night went so well so why not?" she smiles

"Yeah, why not?" I laugh. "We're a little late, so we'll walk into class together."

"I wonder what Sikowitz will say when he sees us" she laughs

"Probably something about dramatic entrances".

We pull up outside school, both of us looking a little nervous. I try to imagine what people's reactions will be; Beck knows, Andre will be happy for Tori as I suspect she'd told him she had a crush on me. Cat will be very happy, she's been telling me for ages how perfect we'd be together. Robbie will probably be a little shocked to see me with Tori considering how we usually argue all the time, and his freak of a puppet will make some snide comment. I'm snapped out of my daydream by Tori.

"Hey, you ready?" she says reaching for my hand and locking our fingers together. "It'll be fine."

"I know" I smile, leaning in and capturing her lips with mine, the kiss soon becomes heated for a moment before we both remember we're stood in the middle of the parking lot and are already 10 minutes late to class. Sikowitz won't be happy with me, especially after his lecture to me yesterday about being late to his class.

We walk into class hand in hand, the class is silent for once except for Sikowitz talking about when the auditions for his new play are; he soon stops when he spots me and Tori stood at the door.

"Sweet mother of coconuts; it's about time!" he shouts towards us.

I look around the room and see exactly what I predicted; Beck and Andre are smiling at us, Cat is practically bouncing in her seat and clapping her hands. And Robbie looks shocked but happy for us at the same time. The rest of the class are in complete shock as they only ever see us arguing and passing comments.

"Jade! You're late again, I thought I told you about this yesterday! Now I'm very glad that you two have finally realised how perfect you are together but that doesn't excuse you for being late" he says to me in a rather serious tone.

"Yeah, I'm sorry we overslept a little and" I'm cut off by Rex

"Yeah, of course that's why" stupid puppet.

"Robbie" I snap "Make that puppet of yours shut up before I make him"

"Now, now Jade" I hear Tori say "ignore him. Sorry we're late Sikowitz" she apologises before leading me over to the two empty seats left.

At the end of the lesson everyone except the usual gang leaves. Cat comes bounding over to us like an excited puppy.

"Yay-ey! I'm so happy that you're together! Now you'll stop being mean to each other, I don't like it when you argue."

"Thank you, Cat" Tori beams

"Well it's about time Tor" says Andre

"About time, was it that obvious?" I ask

"Obvious!" shrieks Sikowitz from across the classroom "the tension between you two was becoming unbearable! I kept trying to set you up with the constant acting exercises and even the little date at Nozu that I made you go on. But you're both just as stubborn as each other and refused to realise it until now."

"Well, we've realised it now, Sikowitz. Jade took me on a perfect first official date last night so we wanted to let everyone else know we're together" Tori says proudly, putting her arm around my waist.

"Yeah, that's right guys, Vega is all mine" I smirk before leaning over and giving her a kiss.

"Jade! Kiss your girlfriend on your own time!" Sikowitz says causing us to break apart.

"This is my own time! Your lesson is over"

"Don't be a sarcastic Sally! Now go away all of you, I have some business to attend to." I wasn't going to question what his 'business' was so we all just nod and turn around to walk out. "Oh! Jade, as you missed the beginning of the lesson you didn't hear when the auditions are for 'Chicago' which I imagine you'll be wanting the role of Velma for. Tomorrow lunch time in the black box theatre. Have a song from the musical prepared." And with that he leaves out of the window; none of us particularly shocked by his exit.

Again for those who read the original… I cut out the morning sex scene. I regretted putting that scene in so soon into their relationship. I'll make up for it. Hope you enjoyed this chapter though! Let me know what you think.
