Reviews make my day :) Please read the message at the end.
It was the first day of therapy for Jade and Tori was nowhere to be found. Apparently she had to stay after school to finish a project with Andre. She said she would be here in 5 minutes, 10 minutes ago. Jade's arm had been aching the past few days and the only way to assuage the pain was for one of her lovers to gently massage it. Since Cat didn't go out much, due to her crutches, Tori was the only other option. The therapist couldn't wait any longer and called Jade back into the room. After a few warm up stretches, Jade was practically in tears. She hadn't expected it to hurt that much. Tori came rushing through the doors.
"I'm so sorry I'm late baby!" Tori said as she wiped Jade's tears and gave her a soft kiss. Jade sniffed and smiled as Tori began to massage her arm. The therapist then made Jade do some stretches that were a little more difficult.
"C'mon Jadey, you can do this." Tori assured as she gently rubbed Jade's sides. Jade's eyes began to tear at the pain, but she pushed through it just for Tori. When the therapy was over Tori just sat there and held Jade.
"Can we go home now?" Jade said exhaustedly. "Of course baby." Tori kissed her forehead.
Tori drove them to Cat's house to see how their girlfriend was doing. Tori rang the doorbell and it took a while, but Cat finally made it to the door. She squealed happily when she saw that it was her lovers. She let them in and locked the door.
"I'm so happy to see you guys." She kissed each girl passionately. "I was soooooooo bored." She pouted. "How did the therapy go?" Cat asked Jade. "Painful." Jade replied seriously. Cat's eyes grew wide.
"Don't tell her that!" Tori scolded. Cat's eyes started to tear knowing that she would be going through that in a few weeks. "Is it really that painful?" Cat asked as a tear slipped down her cheek. "No, no baby." Jade quickly corrected and wiped Cat's tear. She gave Cat a sweet kiss and the petite girl calmed down. They went up to Cat's room and talked about their day at school. Tori had become honorary book carrier for Cat and Jade. Andre had assisted her when the weight became too much.
A week later, Jade's movement had greatly improved. Cat had started coming to the therapy sessions as well and it had made a big difference.
A week after that, it was Cat's turn. Tori and Jade made sure they had cleared their schedules for this critical moment. The first day went pretty easily; a few tears were shed but Cat managed to hold it together. The rest of the week entailed working on building up enough muscle for Cat to walk on.
The next week was when Cat would finally try walking. Tori felt the need to record the moment for future reference. Jade stood behind Cat and held her waist firmly. Cat went to take a step onto her recovering leg but instantly took the foot back and leaned back into Jade. "I can't do this." Cat whimpered as her eyes began to tear. "Yes you can baby." Jade assured and pressed a loving kiss to her neck. Cat shook her head no.
"Kitten, if you do this, Teddy and I will give you a present." Jade said pressing a kiss to a soft cheek.
"Ooh! Is it candy?" The red head perked up.
"Nope, it's even better." Tori said.
"What could possibly be better than candy?" Cat asked.
"I guess you're just going to have to do it to find out." Jade pressed another kiss the girl's cheek.
Tori came up and kissed Cat on the lips. "We know you can do this baby. Just take one step at a time; there's no need to rush." (A/N: I love Jordin Sparks)
"Ok, I can do this." Cat told herself as Tori went back to recording. Jade made sure that her hands were once again securely placed on Cat's waist. "I can do this." Cat told herself again. Jade rubbed calming circles with her thumb on the girl's waist. Cat's tense muscles instantly relaxed at the gesture. She took a step forward onto her previously injured leg. It hurt a lot, but she was determined. She then put all her weight on the leg. It gave out a little, but Jade kept her upright. She took a step with her other foot and just kept going from there. She was walking and she couldn't be happier.
"Ok, I'm going to let go now." Jade said warningly. This moment reminded Tori of when her dad taught her how to ride a bike. She had the biggest smile on her face the first time she did it by herself. That smile was only outmatched by the smile currently on Cat's face. She was walking by herself as if her leg was never broken. Tori shut off the camera and went to hug Cat along with Jade.
"We're so unbelievably proud of you Kitten." Jade said as she kissed the petite girl passionately. Tori's lips then replaced Jade's. "I did it!" Cat squealed. "What's my present?" Cat said grabbing one of each girl's hands. Tori and Jade just smiled at each other and nodded.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
They all lay together on their hotel bed exhausted after a long day of shopping. Tori and Jade had rewarded Cat with a shopping trip to New York. It was partly Jade's reward too, after all, she did go through the same thing Cat did. They had just finished watching a scary movie, which of course Jade had requested. Tori pulled out her camera and they all watched the video of Cat walking.
"Now you know that you can do anything you put your mind to." Tori said as she and Jade each placed a kiss on the small girl's cheek. Cat giggled and cuddled into the embrace of both of her lovers.
