Author's Note: So today I discovered that for multi-chapter fics, you have to save each chapter as a different document. And now my mom and siblings are gonna wonder why there are a billion pieces of Victorious fanfiction floating all over the file folders by the time I'm done this story. Why can't it just be all together? I don't understand. XP

Disclaimer: If I owned Victorious, you'd see more Jori, and I wouldn't be sitting around writing fanfiction. Trust me.

Almost two weeks later, I had mostly gotten over the break up, and not much had changed. Still, I was eager to see Tori's reaction when she found out what I had done. Today was the day of the audition, and she was finally going to find out that there was no audition anymore. Friday afternoon was spent doing last minute rehearsing in the Blackbox theatre. The whole gang was there, including me, if only because I wanted to see her reaction. When she was finally ready for her audition, all dolled up and excited, Andre started doing a last-minute sound check to assure that everything was perfect, and Tori hurried around the room declaring that he would be here any minute. Whoever he was. I still don't remember that guy's name. It was never important, I suppose.

I went backstage with the others and we waited for him to arrive, even though I knew he never would. Like I said, I was in it for her reaction. The minutes ticked by and soon enough he was thirty minutes late. An hour. Two hours. Everyone finally decided that something was up, even though I knew what it was. I remained ever silent as Tori dialed the man's number and pressed the phone to her ear desperately.

"Hello? Yes, this is Tori Vega. I was wondering why you're not here for the… what? No, I-I never canceled. What do you mean? Someone that sounded just like me…? Well, okay. Thank you. I'm sorry. I understand. Okay. Goodbye." Her voice cracked, her eyes clouding with tears as she ended the call and looked up at her friends. "He said someone that sounded just like me called in my name and canceled the audition…" She let a tear fall down her cheek, and Cat instantly rushed over to her and flung her arms around Tori. Andre, Robbie, and Beck mumbled apologies, sounding genuinely sad and disappointed as they all pondered who would have done such a thing. I waited in the background for someone to guess correctly.

It was Tori who did. It dawned on the brunette, anger bubbling from her as suddenly as the sadness had a few moments before. "Jade," She declared, narrowing her eyes as she stepped towards me. "Why?" She asked, her voice pleading, her eyes now revealing both anger and despair as they met mine. I could hardly bear to look at her.

"I…" I started, not even sure what to say.

"I know you hate me, Jade, but I didn't think you hated me that much!" Tori cut me off, practically yelling. "That audition could have changed my life! It was an amazing opportunity! You ruin everything, Jade! And I don't even know why! I try to be nice to you, but you hate me for no reason! And now you've ruined this and I can't even fix it!" She was crying freely now as she yelled at me, her red face inches from mine. "Why did you do this? Why do you hate me?" With those words, she stormed out of the room, sobbing with her face in her hands, leaving me speechless and shocked. I didn't know what to say. I didn't know what to do, or how to react. All I knew is that I had hurt her, and for whatever reason, it was hurting me too, even though I didn't let that show.

Cat hurried after Tori, determined to comfort her. Robbie, Beck, and Andre looked at me with stunned, disappointed faces, shaking their heads at me and not even bothering to speak. Not even Rex spoke. No cold, honest remark. It seemed Robbie was too speechless to even make his puppet speak for him.

The three boys packed up and went home, only muttering to each other on occasion to ask where a certain piece of equipment went, or what setting to leave the lights on, or something like that. I sat in one of the many chairs in the Blackbox theatre as they did this, mentally debating whether or not to go home. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do.

Cat came back inside after the three boys had left. "Where'd everyone go?" She asked, cocking her head.

"Home," I replied with a shrug. "How's Tori?"

"I've never seen her so upset," Cat replied. "You really hurt her, Jade. Why'd you do that to her?"

"Because Beck broke up with me, and I had to do something to make Tori miserable, because that's what I always do when I'm angry. And… I guess I went overboard." I sighed, figuring that there was no point in not explaining why I had done it.

She frowned. "You make her miserable just because you're angry? What did she ever do to you?"

A million answers come to mind, all too quick and too confusing. Because she makes you question who you are. Because you're not sure if you hate her, love her, or both. Because you cannot afford to let her know how much she makes you feel. Because she does nothing but confuse you.

Yet, gulping, I looked at Cat and replied simply with, "I don't know."

"Well, you went too far this time. And you can't fix it." With those words, the usually bubbly little red-head left the room sadly, an oddly serious look on her face.

I got up from my chair after I watched her leave, heading out of the theater to look for Tori.
