"Trina!" I yelled as soon as I got home. It's so odd that she's not in the living room today "Trina!" I yelled again. The house is so quiet my voice even echoed to the kitchen "Oh hey Tori" I saw her coming down the stairs "Wow you look dressed where are you going?"

"Im just going to see what Beck is doing" she replied. I sat down on the sofa and picked up the magazine on the coffee table "Oh so you mean you're stalking him?"

"Yes, wait NO. Im just going to see what he's doing" She frowned. Liar, I know she likes Beck from the beginning. She's just dating other guys because she wants to get rid of it "Ok so what time are you coming back home?" I asked while flipping the pages of the magazine "Around dinner" she to the door.

"Boop bye" I stared at her but I only heard the door close. I let out a huge sigh as I put the magazine back on the table. Im alone in the house again. Ring ring I felt my pear phone vibrate. It's a text message from Jade 'Sorry I won't be able to go to your house today. I am doing something very important. I can try tomorrow? – Jade'

I know that she won't be coming to the house tonight but when she said that she would try tomorrow it made me smile. I clicked the reply button and typed 'Its ok just make sure that you'll be coming here tomorrow – Tori' then I hit the send button. I stood up and went to the kitchen 'Well… I guess I'll be cooking alone for tonight'

I am sitting on the floor while working for my upcoming play called, guns and bullets. It's about a guy who forgot that his gun was loaded with bullets so when he tried to shot himself in the head for joke purposes. He shot himself accidentally and yeah he died.

But Im actually doing this because im avoiding Vega… I want to stay away from her as much as I can but I wouldn't want her to notice that im keeping my pace away from her. Of course she would bug me again saying 'Jade I thought we were friends, why are you doing this again' blah blah blah, so im just going to keep it cool while secretly avoiding her.

I will continue doing this when I finally figure out what I really feel towards her before it's too late. I heard my pear phone beep so I looked at it and I saw Tori's message.

For some reason her message made me smile 'So she really wants me to go to her house?' I thought to myself 'Ugh don't be silly Jade! She just doesn't want to be alone remember how much of a wuss she is' said the other part of me. I can't believe I am constantly arguing by myself because of the stupid text that I got from Tori.

'K.' I looked at my phone before hitting send but instead of sending it I deleted it again and type 'I'll be there in a minute – Jade' God Vega im into you.

I placed my script on the desk and cleaned up my room before going to my walk in closet and choosing what type of clothes to wear. I decided to pick something fancy.

After a couple of minutes of picking and trying out clothes. I went downstairs ad headed to my car. My parents won't be here till next week. Just like Tori's parents they were also out of town.

It was so quiet on my way to Vega. I'll admit I miss Tori and her quirkiness. It's true that she's the dorkiest girl that I've ever met she's worse than cat. I can tolerate Cat but when it comes to her. I just can't.

I have to admit though it's one of the factors why I have a thing for Tori. I know that I like her and it sucks on my part. I don't even know if she's straight or not. I already know that im bisexual before I even dated Beck. I like girls as much as I like boys. But yeah none of them actually knew that im bisexual.

It was a long drive considering the fact that they're fixing the road near the Vega's residence. So when I finally reached Tori's house I pulled over to their garage and went to the door.

'Should I knock?' I thought to myself, 'Why do you have to knock? Just barge in!" dang it here I go again.

-VEGA

I can't believe Jade is going here. I can't believe she cares enough for me to come all the way to my house and cancel whatever it is that she's doing just spend some time with me.

And because I am so happy today I want to cook her favorite food. Which is mostly seafood cause that's what she always eats. Although im not really sure if sea foods are her favorite.

Knock Knock that must be Jade or Trina. Because Jade doesn't knock she just barge in like she owns the place. I removed my apron first before heading towards the door.

"It took you a while Vega" Holy chizz, she looks so hot. Smoking hot… She's wearing her usual black coat and her black tank top. But right now she's wearing a black tutu skirt with black leggings and her usual combat boots.

"Hey VEGA! Are you going to let me in or are you're just going to check me out while drooling on the floor?"

I looked at her and yeah she's smirking. She looks hotter now and I can see her blue-green eyes smiling genuinely. Wait oh my god! Did she just said that I was checking her out? Is it really that obvious? 'Snap out of it Tori! It's just Jade… It's just your crush who's been polluting your mind all day! So snap out of it'

"Psh I wasn't checking you out. Come on in" I tried to keep it cool while heading back to the kitchen so that I can continue what I was doing "You're cooking already?" she asked "Yeah why?"

"I just figured out that you needed my help because you're a wuss" she chuckled "Im am not a wuss" I wasn't looking at her because im busy cooking.

I thought this is going to be fun but I guess not. She's just going to blow up my night and make my life miserable again. On the other hand im still happy that she's with me and that I am not alone.

"I am not a wuss" she mocked me using her western voice again I hate it when she does that. But at the same time I kind off miss it. I let out a small laugh… But I think she heard it because she laughed too.

"I don't talk like that" I looked at her and I giggled. She went to me and took the spatula out of my hand "What are you doing? Just sit down. Im still cooking" I tensed up a little knowing that she's beside me I can smell her vanilla scent. She smells so good. "Chill out Vega relax. Im just going to help you… What are you cooking anyways?"

"It's… Its fried octopus" oh my god is she going to like it? 'Relax Tori relax… She's just a few inches away from you. Calm down' she's moving little bit closer to me to see what im doing. Holy macaroons she's five inches away from my face.

"I love fried octopus, how'd you know?" she looked at me with her blue-green eyes hypnotizing me again and again and again… It was never ending. I quickly stopped myself from looking at it while I clear my throat.

"Well it's just a hunch. So are you going to help me or what?"

-WEST

I can tell that my flirting somehow works I can sense her body tensing up when im around her. Especially when I come near her.

"Of course I'll help you" I smirked. She looks so cute when she blush. She knows that I seldom smirk and I don't usually do it around her and yet here I am smirking at her for a couple of times already"Jade are you sick?" I laughed, dang it Vega.

"Why the hell would you ask that? Will I come here if im sick?" she looked down after realizing how stupid her question is. Oh my god she's embarrassed. Yet she still looks cute I can't stop looking at her.

"You're laughing? And you smirked at me for a couple of times already plus you're also smiling. Are you planning something evil? Drop it Jade" she's glaring at me, I laughed even harder. How many times have I laughed tonight? And it's because of Tori Vega. My frenemy who I've always hated but right now she's one o f the reasons why im laughing.

If anyone can see me right now they will be in a state of shock saying. 'Jade West is laughing, I repeat Jade West is laughing' or 'Jade West is laughing! It's the end of the world!' the thought of that made me laugh even more.

"God! Vega will you just stop? Im not planning anything ok? Im just happy that im almost finished with the play that im writing. Now continue cooking. Im starving" she shrugged and continue to fry the octopus while I am making the sauce. I thinnk this is sweet and sour. I heard Cat mention it once that she loves this sauce. But heh. I don't really like this thing.

After that conversation with Vega she didn't speak again. It became quiet for a couple of minutes till she finally finished cooking the octopus. It smells so good.

"Yay it's done! Hand me the plates. Oh! And some spoon and forks too. I smell like an octopus now" I handed her the plates together with the spoon and forks before sitting on the left side of the table. I watched her place the plates and the plate with the octopus in it. She just handed me the spoon and fork before getting the sauce on the counter.

What surprise me is that she dipped her index finger on the bowl and put it inside her mouth. 'She really di… No chiz. She sucked it till the sauce is completely gone.

"Wow it taste so good I didn't know you can make this sauce" She said as she lick her finger once more. Oh hell naw she looks sexy "Well im certainly not dipping my octopus in that bowl again"

"Why? It's so good. Come on taste it" she offered me the bowl but I shook my head 'Try to keep it cool West' well im not going to dip my octopus in that bowl because I'll remember the figure of her while she's sucking her index finger with the sweet and sour sauce in it. It turns me on.

"You dipped your finger in it and it's gross" I rolled my eyes. But I was only acting. I don't want her to see that it's affecting me "Oh you mean this?" She did it again but this time she's looking straight into my eyes saying 'Is this what you mean West?' I gulped, 'Tori you're such a tease' I said to myself. But that's not going to work on me.

"No… that's not what I meant" I smirked. I saw confusion in her eyes, I can't help it anymore "Then what do you mean?" I took her index finger without breaking our gaze and I slowly dipped her finger in the sweet and sour sauce.

"I meant this" I playfully sucked her index finger that completely put her in a state of shock. Im still looking in her eyes while sucking the entire sauce on her finger. God I wanted to laugh but the way she looks at me is just so hot. It took her awhile to remove her finger out of my mouth. I didn't laugh I just smirked at her evilly.

"le-let's just eat" she's blushing and she can't even look at me straight in the eyes. She sat down in front of me. Holy chiz the sight of her makes my hormones insane. 'Stop it West' I ate the food and I glance at her.

"Why are you not dipping your octopus in the sauce Vega? I thought you said it was yummy" I made the word 'yummy' sexy while licking my lips. I saw her blush even more. Then she gave me a death glare. She didn't answer me though… I am holding back my laugh.

-VEGA

That was so HOT! and embarrassing. Jade sucked my index finger and I FELT SPARKS it was hot I almost melted. She even looked at me in the eyes seductively! What the hell is she doing? She can't just torture me like that I LIKE HER AND SHE JUST MADE IT WORSE!

I dipped my octopus in the sauce and I saw her smirked. I feel like blushing while I was doing it but 'You're not winning yet west' I looked at her as I eat the octopus in my left hand. I saw her blush… could it be that she likes me too?

"Stop doing that Vega you look funny" then she laughed. I think it was a fake laugh though but I shouldn't have expected it. 'That's what you get for expecting' I said to myself. Urgh I feel like stabbing myself right now.

My phone rang, 'Thank you mysterious caller' I ran to the living room and answered the phone. I went back to the kitchen "Put it in loud speaker Vega" she said but I shook my head in response "Put it on speaker or I'll cut your phone in half" she's glaring at me, ugh I know that she won't cut it in half but she might still do something terrible to me. I put it in speaker. Who could it be anyway?

Beck: Tori? Hey um will you please send Trina home? She won't stop bugging me.

'Well what do you know its Beck. Jade's ex-boyfriend… And the guy who wants to go out with you. How awkward was that?'

Tori: Oh sorry about that I did try to warn her that you wouldn't want her around but she just… She wouldn't listen.

I laughed a little. Before looking at Jade. If looks can kill, I'd be in a coffin by now. She's giving me multiple types of glares. Death, confusion, irritation, and anger. God if I only knew that it's Beck I wouldn't have answered it. He also laughed which made Jade even more upset.

Beck: Well that is true but please, can you talk to her?

Tori: Alright… I'll try.

He went off the phone for a while to get Trina. That's the time when I looked at Jade. But she wasn't looking at me anymore "Look Jade I didn't-" I was about to explain my side but she stood up and looked intently into my eyes "Look it's alright I already have a suspicion that it'll be him"

"So… you're not mad?" I asked. She ignored my question oh chiz this is bad…

Trina: what do you want from me Tori? I heard Trina on the other line. Oh my god Is she drunk?

Tori: Trina are you drunk? What are you doing there? Go home now I amm so upset why the hell did Trina got drunk? I mean she doesn't usually do that but come on! What's her reason? and Beck tolerated her.

Trina: Im not going home, im staying here.

Tori: What do you mean you're staying there?! Trina! Hello? Trina! Don't leave me on the phone im still talking to you! TRINA! I yelled but were no answers. I looked at the phone and it's still on call. I waited for an answer but I got nothing.

Tori: Hello Trina?

Beck: Tori? Trina went out of the house and im going to go after her

Tori: No no no don't hang up yet! Why did you let her get drunk? You should have stopped her Beck! Im flaring now ugh I know that Beck doesn't care about Trina because he doesn't like her in the first place but he should have at least stopped her from drinking.

Beck: Look I know that you're mad right now and im sorry. I tried to stop her but she said that she'll hit the TV with the bottle if I tried to stop her from drinking so all I did is watch her. Now I have to look for her before she gets lost.

Tori: Beck! Hello Beck! Hey!

I looked at the phone and it's too late he hang up. I threw my phone at the couch and sat down. I ran my hand in my hair as I let out a huge sigh.

-WEST

Whoa I've never seen Vega that angry before. But let's all be honest here. She looks insanely hot when she went furious about Trina getting drunk and all. 'Stop it West, go to her now' I went to the living room and I saw her sitting on the couch with both of her hands on her face. She must be really stressed right now.

To be honest, im not really mad at her because the caller is Beck. Im mad at Beck because he was obviously flirting with to Tori And he can't do that. It should only be me.

"So…" I tried breaking the silence but she didn't look at me. Ok now this is bad. I cleared my throat before sitting beside her "Look Jade, if you're going to be upset with me because Beck called save it" she sounds pissed. I wouldn't blame her.

"Or if you're going to tease me about Trina being a hard headed sister. Don't try. Not now, not that im worried sick about Trina" she rested her back on the couch and looked up in the ceiling, I feel bad that Tori thinks of me that way. I mean I can be caring for her once in my life. And not just make her life a living hell.

"Don't be stupid Vega im not going to do that. Im just surprised that you act more like the older sister than Trina" I smiled while suppressing my laugh cause I wouldn't want her to be completely mad at me. She finally looked in my eyes and she let out a giggle "Well I guess you're right… But aren't you mad at me because of Beck?" seriously? she still thinks that im mad at her because of Beck? I laughed a little.

"No I was never mad the entire time im just pissed because he disturbed our dinner" she nodded. She looked at our plates with half-eaten octopus on it "Oh you're right… I lost my appetite"

"That's alright. There's always a next time. You should probably relax for a little. Trina will be back here soon. I'll wait with you" Her face lightened up and I saw her precious smile again.

"Thanks Jade"
