Chapter 5

A/N: I apologize for this chapter being a little late I had some writer's block. Cat will definitely be out of character in this story. Thanks for the reviews and support on the last chapter. The readers are the people that make the creativity go on. FlorMorada you're correct on the question I asked, if there's something you'd like to know, give me an idea for a one shot just private message me. A lot of you asked what the surprise was believe me this should surprise mostly everyone.

Tori's POV:

Today was the day before the court day, Jade decided to stay home when I went to school. She's better off at my house after what I had seen when I walked in the double doors of Hollywood Arts. Standing right by my locker being all lovey-dovey was Cat and Beck. I almost ran right out the door but Beck had noticed me.

"Hey Tori have you seen Jade?", he asked me.

"She's home sleeping."

"Would you like to explain how you know that?"

"You already know why I know that."

"Well I'm sure precious Cat here would like to know."

"Hi Tori", Cat said without her normal high pitch voice, instead it was laced with venom.

"Well it sounds like she already knows. Cat I thought you were Jade's best friend. How could you do this to her?"

"Easily Jade dumped Beck and I've always thought Beck was delicious. Friends don't last forever Tori, so just stay out of me and Beck's business."

"Fine, but did you ask Beck why Jade broke up?"

"Because she wouldn't have sex with him I know the story. I don't see why she wouldn't do it with him he's gorgeous."

"She didn't want to have sex because she wasn't ready. Beck was going to force her to have sex. Cat don't you realize that Beck tried to rape your best friend."

"He tried to show Jade how much he loved her. But Jade showed that she didn't love him."

"Cat listen to yourself, listen to what you're saying. Jade's supposed to be your best friend, you two were close almost sisters."

"Well Jade started to ignore me when you and her started getting all buddy-buddy with each other."

"That makes you go all two-faced on her; why didn't you just talk to her."

"She never gave me the time or place to talk to her."

"Jade had just gone through a traumatic event. I'd think that based on how long you've known Jade for you could understand how she works."

"Don't you start lecturing me about Jade you don't have the right to do that at all Tori."

"I have the knowledge that proves I'm right and you know that Cat. If you can't see what's going on then I'm just going to walk away Cat."

Jade's POV:

Today is so boring I wish Tori was here. But she decided that school would be what she should do. I don't blame her for it since we go to court tomorrow. I wish tomorrow wasn't going to happen since I dread being in the same room with Beck. I really don't know what to expect at all, I've never been in a courtroom except for a field trip in sixth grade. Besides they closed down a courtroom to give my group a simple as possible explanation so we could move on. But that was so long ago for me maybe I can ask Tori about court since she's mentioned that she's been in the gallery for cases her dad has been present for.

The only thing that has been useful for my entertainment has been finishing my screenplay. I've been working on this since the week after what Beck had done. Don't call me cliche or anything but it's about two people who finally realize that the one they love is the least expected. I have no idea why it came out like this but maybe it will make a good play some day down the road. Thank God for cellphones, I just realized Tori is in lunch so she'll probably answer my text. Now where did I put my phone.

No POV:

Jade: Hey how's your day going?

Tori: It's a been a little stressful and full of surprises, some not so pleasant.

J: What kind of surprises?

T: I have one more class and then I'll be back home and we'll talk.

J: OK I'll see you soon.

T: Alright.

Tori's POV:

Oh God i don't know how Jade is going to react to the news about Beck and Cat. I have a feeling that Beck is going to use Cat as a way to get pity in court. I just want to get home there is literally two minutes until the bell rings, but it feels like two hours. I don't care about the time anymore I'll just pretend I need to use the bathroom.

Okay that went a lot easier than I expected now time to get out of here. Maybe Jade is starting to rub off on me, well not the present Jade. Anyway time to get home and see Jade, I know that we haven't been together for more than a month but I see the time after the incident with Beck as the time we started to like each other. I wish we didn't have to go to court tomorrow because Jade is going to be either livid or depressed about what I have to tell her.

Jade's POV:

I wonder what Tori was talking about with surprises, I have a feeling she ran into Beck and he said something about court. If that's what happened then that may be why Tori sounded so timid about telling me until she gets here. I'm going to get answers when she comes in the door.

15 Minutes Later:

I'm really nervous about what Tori is going to tell me. I mean I was nervous earlier but now it's danger zone nervous. I can't take it anymore I'm going to go sit outside and wait for her.

No POV:

As Jade was walking outside the door she felt her head hit something hard. When she steadied herself she looked over to see Tori holding back a smile.

"Jade I thought we were going to have a heart to heart, not a head to head."

"Tori I was coming out here to get some fresh air."

"Are you nervous about tomorrow?"

"Is it that obivious?"

"Yeah but there is something you need to know."

"I was wondering when that was going to come up. What is it?"

"Well today I found Beck's got a new lady."

"Who is it, he's got to be using this to intimidate me."

"Well it's Cat."

"Cat, as in Cat Valentine our best friend Cat."

"Yes that Cat."

"Oh my god, why would she do this."

"Well she kept saying Beck was delicious and that they've had sex already they kept saying that."

"Okay I need to go and talk to Cat."

"They're not in L.A. I overheard them say they were going to San Diego for something."

"This is not going to turn out well at all."

"Jade I know this doesn't look good but we need to rest for tomorrow."

"I guess you're right it just pisses me off that this is happening."

"I'm pretty sure that Cat is there as a witness to help Beck. If we can't get Beck for sexual assault which the chances are real slim. We can get him for aggravated assault and battery."

"How long would he be in jail for?"

"A minimum of one year and a max of three years."

"Okay that makes me a little more comfortable about tomorrow."

"So how about we go get some sleep and then go out for dinner."

"You Tori Vega have got yourself a deal."

A/N: So I wanted to end that chapter on a more of a fluffy feeling. I'm sorry this chapter took so long but there's been a lot of personal reasons. Also my story Keeps Me Going is up for adoption go to look at the new chapter for the details.
