Tori's P.O.V
I sat on the couch in the living room wringing my hands nervously, I have to meet Jade in an hour I'd been ready for a half hour now. I don't know why I'm so nervous, I've been like this pretty much since I woke up and that was a while ago.
My mom and dad had to take Trina to some audition or something, and I told them I couldn't go because I had to meet Jade, my mom wished me good luck knowing what I was talking about and then they left.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, distracting me from my thoughts thankfully. I stood up from my seat and walked over to the door opening it revealing Andre.
"Hey chica, how you been?" Andre said smiling while walking past me towards the couch.
"I've been fine" It was a lie and by the look on Andre's face I could tell that he knew that as well.
"Okay, what the hell's going on? First you skip school and now you lie to me, plus you look nervous as hell right now" I could hear the concern in his voice as he spoke, instantly making me feel bad about lying to him.
"I don't know if I can tell you" I told him being completely honest with him this time, before sitting back down where I had been before.
He sat down on the opposite couch and stared at me, "I'm your best friend; of course you can tell me Tori"
I sighed and raised my head to look at him, he's right he is my best friend I should be able to tell him this. Maybe it'd be for the best if I did?
"Ugh, okay fine, but you can't say anything until I've explained everything properly"
"Yeah sure" Andre agreed straight away, he's sweet like that.
I let out a shaky breath before starting. "Okay, well when we paid that guy to ask out Jade and she was mad at me...it wasn't just cause of that. She wanted to talk to me, so as usual she dragged me into the janitor's closet. She was screaming and shouting at me telling me I should mind my own business, and when she was about to leave...I kissed her. I don't know what came over me but in that moment I wanted her".
I finally let my eyes look at Andre to find him smiling at me; it just confused the hell out of me. Why is he smiling? Shouldn't me kissing Jade, another girl, freak him out?
"W-Why are you smiling?" I stuttered out.
"Because you have finally admitted it" He stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world, which it isn't because right now I have no idea what he's going on about.
"Finally admitted what?"Am I just too stupid to not know what Andre is talking about or is he just making no sense at all? Probably the latter.
"That you're in love with Jade"
"What?!" I screamed at him, almost choking on the air if that's even possible?
"You're in love with Jade"
"N-No I'm not...what are you talking about...I don't love Jade" I put as much effort into making that statement sound believable as I could, but honestly there's no point because I know that somehow Andre's right.
"Tori, you don't need to lie to me, I'm your friend" He said compassionately still looking at me from his position on the couch.
"Look Andre, I don't know what to think maybe you're right and I do love Jade, but right now I can't think about it. I really have to go, and I'm sorry to just chuck you out like this but this is something I really have to do okay?"
He stood up at the same time I did before walking over to me and wrapping his arms round me in a tight hug. "Do whatever you need to do, when you need to talk I'm here" He pulled away from me smiling at me before leaving.
I ran a hand through my hair and sighed before walking out the door quickly locking it and getting into my car.

Jade's P.O.V
I sat in the small coffee place in a booth right at the back; my hands wrapped around one of their polystyrene cups which had black coffee in it. I'd barely touched it which was extremely weird for me seen as I love coffee, but all I can think about is what Tori is going to say to me.
Just then I heard the small bell ring above the door as someone came in, I looked up and saw that it was in fact Tori. She saw me and quickly went to order her drink before coming to sit down in the booth with me.
"Hi" I said, slightly quiet.
"Hey" She replied offering me a small smile which I returned.
"Tori-"I tried to speak but she cut me off.
"Jade just please listen, I need to say this" Tori said desperation in her voice, she's not angry or anything which I expected her to be, but she still seems upset and I hate knowing that it's my fault she feels this way.
I looked at her, also noticing desperation in her eyes so I just nodded in response.
"I'm really sorry about getting that guy to ask you out by paying him, but I just wanted you to be happy. Paying him was so hard, because all the time all I could think of is that I could be the one asking you out. I know we've never really get along, but I've always wanted you to notice me. Whenever you insult me I didn't even care because then you were still noticing me. Haven't you ever wondered why I just put up with all your mean and nasty insults? I just want you to like me Jade, and when I kissed you I don't know what came over me but after thinking about it I know it was the right thing to do and I don't regret it at all anymore. I got to know how it feels to kiss you, and that's better than nothing because honestly Jade I just want you to be mine, I'm not exactly sure if this is love or something else but when I used to see you with Beck I felt something, jealousy. I'd really like it if we could just go back to being friends for now, and see how that goes because I don't expect you to feel the same way but I just had to say all of this. I needed to get it off my chest"
Just as she finished the waitress came over and handed Tori her drink before smiling at the girl. She didn't walk away which I expected her to do, and Tori obviously were thinking the same thing.
"Hey you're really cute, want to go out sometime" The blonde girl asked eyeing Tori
I could see Tori was about to answer but I butted in before she could.
"Well you see, she can't because she's already mine, now get the hell away from my girlfriend" I said angrily, I don't know why I said it but I just really didn't like the way that girl was looking at Tori.
Nervously I looked at Tori, she sat there looking shocked a slight smile adorning her tanned face, she looked beautiful.
"W-What was that Jade?" She stuttered to me nervously, I sat up a little bit straighter getting more and more nervous.
"I don't know, I just didn't like the way she was looking at you, I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that"
"No" She said quickly "Thank you, I didn't like the look of her either she's kinda creepy"
Tori smiled at me and I gave her a smile back, it was strange I kind of expected her to yell at me and tell me to keep my nose out of her business but she didn't.
I took a sip from my coffee and so did she before I finally spoke.
"I don't know what I feel for you, but all I know is that I really want us to go back to being friends and I promise to be nicer to you if you give me a second chance"
I watched as she consider what I had just said before smiling when she agreed that we could go back to being friends of some sort.
"I swear to god the Jade, if you mess this up and hurt me in some way then I'll never speak to you again"
And that was all I needed, I knew now that I couldn't lose her a second time and to be quite honest I don't plan on it.
