Tori thought back on the events that had happened prior that month. She was now lying on her bed, absentmindedly staring at her television screen, a Jersey Shore rerun playing. She thought about how she had just seen the original ice queen, the invincible Jade West break down in tears in front of her. Because of her. About her. Tori just couldn't believe it. She replayed the scene in her head again, visibly wincing when she thought about the scissors that had very narrowly missed her. She needed someone to talk to, she needed to confess. But who? She thought of Ren, her not-explicitly-exclusive-sorta boyfriend, the boy she's become closest to in the past couple of weeks. No, she thought, I'd break his heart. I don't really want to lose him. Not because of her. Andre' was her best friend, but he was also Beck's best friend, and probably wouldn't hesitate to tell him. Cat was practically attached to Jade's hip lately, and Tori definitely didn't want to be around her. The red-headed couldn't go to the bathroom without Jade right behind her. So Tori was pretty much alone, as she couldn't talk to her parents or Trina. It devastated her to think about how disappointed they would be.
The raven-haired girl glared in youngest Vega's direction, disgusted by the PDA she shared with her new boyfriend. It made Jade sick to her stomach to think about how the brunette had broken her heart. She drowned her sorrows in her boyfriend constantly, him not knowing what her sorrows were exactly. Beck didn't care, he was getting steady displays of her affection for him lately. Jade used Beck's body to try the rid herself of the guilt and despair she felt after her falling out with Tori. How could she be such a bitch, Jade mused to herself silently, when that's supposed to be my role in this relationship? I finally try to show her the affection she constantly begged of me, and then she throws it back in my face? Fuck her. And Jade realized that's exactly what she wanted to do to Tori right now. And, being Jade West, the badass goth chick, she decided to do what she wanted.
Tori groaned in exasperation as she noticed Jade walking across the Asphalt Cafe, toward her and Ren's table. "What's wrong, Tori?" Ren asked as he noticed the distressed look on his girlfriend's face.
"Nothing. Just, I know Jade's coming over here, and I don't really want to talk to her."
"Really, I don't see why anyone would wanna talk to her, hehheh."
"Yeah, well..." Tori again looked at the goth girl, coming closer to her table now. Tori dreaded the moment when she would actually reach her destination.
"Want me to tell her to leave you alone?" Ren asked, playing chivalrous boyfriend. He could probably take Jade, right? She was just a girl, no matter how threatening she tried to look.
"No, she'd probably just stab you in the neck with her scissors as soon as you opened your mouth. That's cute of you, though, to think you had a chance." Tori smiled in her boyfriend's direction briefly, but her smile dropped when she became aware of the new arrival at their table.
"Gossiping about me, Tori?" Jade put on her extremely transparent, intimidating, devilish smile. Ren winced when she looked at him briefly. What does she see in that freak? Scared of a girl, he doesn't deserve her. "I need to talk to you," she stated flatly as her eyes landed on the brunette girl in front of her.
"You guys, um, go ahead. I'm gonna, uh, get another burrito." Ren sped off. He was worried about Tori, but something in Jade's expression told him that she probably would stab him if he didn't sacrifice his girlfriend.
"Come." Jade motioned for Tori to follow her and proceeded to walk toward the school building. Tori sighed in exasperation a second time, and then to got up to follow her. There was no point in protesting, they were gonna have this talk no matter what. It was cute that Tori fleetingly thought that she had a choice in the matter.
Hey guys, sorry this chapter was so short. It just didn't want to be written, so sorry if it's crappy. I didn't have my creative juices really flowing for this one. Maybe I need to drink some more Creative Juice.
Ha ha, crappy jokes aside, please review. I'm glad you even took the time to read to get to this point, I just love getting reviews because it's great to get feedback on your work, no? Thanks to the ones who do review, and don't worry, next chapter should be up soon. Hopefully. I'm working on it.
Disclaimer: I don't own Victorious, if I did, it'd probably just be called The L Word: Performing Arts School Edition. What am I saying? I don't even watch the L Word, that's terrible.
