Chapter 8: The jump
"So where exactly are we going?" Tori asked Raven, as her, Beck, and DJ was walking towards the subway station that was down the street from their school.
"There this cool place called The Jump thats in the next district over" Raven replied. "Its basically a karaoke club and dance lounge".
"Thats sound like fun" Tori said excited about going to a karaoke club. "We actually have one similar back in California called Karaoke Dokey that me and my friends use to go to all the time".
"Yeah remember that one time when the owner of the place rigged the singing competition so his two daughters would win" Beck recalled.
"Yeah that was the day I had to watch Trina because she had some of her teeth pulled out" Tori laughed, "her gum blood was disgusting".
Raven and Dj looked at each other, "Gum blood" they said in unison.
"Yeah" Tori still laughing.
They continued down the stairs of the subway station until they reach a line to purchase a metrocard. Tori was very excited about getting on the subway for the first time. It would make her life in New York city even more real by getting around how New Yorkers get around. After the gang purchased their tickets, they went down to the terminal and hopped on the train. From what Tori heard, subway trains was always crowded, but to her surprise it wasn't that packed. Walking along the aisle They found four empty chairs by one of the exits doors, with Raven taking a seat next to Dj, and Tori taking a seat next to Beck.
"So what else happened at the Karaoke Dokey?" Dj asked.
"Oh" Tori said, remembering their conversation before they got on the train, "Becks girlfriend Jade and our friend Cat came over to my house pissed that the owner daughters unfairly won over them, so they asked me to help get back at them".
"Did you guys win?" Raven wanting to know.
"Yeah I dressed up as a nerd and while performing I won the crowd over"
"And while you girls were having fun at Karaoke Dokey, me and the boys had to deal with you lunatic sister" Beck said.
"Awww sorry" Tori laughed, pinching Becks cheeks.
Tell him! Tori conscience started to say, but she wanted so badly to tell it to shut up.
Beck was having fun at the moment and she didn't want to ruin that by telling him about his two timing girlfriend. The rest of the train ride was filled with small talk, and before they knew it, it was time to get off. They exit the subway station and once again meet the busy streets of NY, but this time it was even more packed full of people going in different directions.
This is amazing! Tori thought to herself, taking in the sight.
Beck grabbed Tori's hand, and she looked up at him and smiled which he quickly returned. She wondered if he was feeling the same way as she was feeling about New York. The sights and the live feeling it give you. Following Raven's lead, the gang finally reached the karaoke club The Jump, which looked a little rundown from the outside to Tori surprised, since it was surrounded by nice looking buildings and stores.
"Are you sure this is the place?" Beck asked Raven.
She laughed, "yeah I know it looks kind of run down, but wait until you get inside" she said opening the door for them.
Beck and Tori looked at each other then walked inside followed by DJ and Ra. She was absolutely right! The Jump did look nice in the inside. There was booth and single tables with red interior, the walls was filled with artwork and pictures, there was different colored neon lights flashing through the place (mostly on the dance floor and stage), and there was a bar area where you can order drinks and food.
"Wow Ra you was right" Tori looking around the place.
The Jump was packed full of people who were eating and dancing, and enjoying themselves. Also on the stage there was this guy and girl performing a duet together, singing 'No Air' by Chris brown and Jordan Sparks.
"Come on lets go find a booth" Dj said.
They made their way through the crowd until they found a booth that was close to the stage, and sat down taking off their jackets. "Do anyone want something to drink?" Dj asked.
"Yeah sure pink lemonade" Beck said.
"I'll have the same" Tori added.
"And I'll come with" Raven getting up from the booth right along with Dj, "be right back" and with that they disappeared to the bar.
"Beck" Tori trying to get his attention.
He was looking at the stage where now this girl was singing 'Call me maybe'. "Yeah" he said now looking at Tori.
She bend her head down trying to figure out the right words to say to him about Jade, before looking at him again. "I need to tell you something"
"Tell me what?" He said, now concerned.
She was getting ready to speak when a handsome guy with hazel green eyes, sandy curly hair as long as Becks interrupted. He was also about Andre's height too. "Hey I know you" he said to Tori, "you're that girl who performed at the platinum awards last year".
"Yeah that me" Tori suddenly smiling at the guy.
It was everyone now and then someone would recognize her from the platinum awards, so when someone do, she basket it in.
"Your performance was amazing!" he complemented, "I'm surprised you don't have a record deal with a great voice you have. I'm Seth" he now holding out his hand to her.
"Tori Vega" She took his hand and shook it.
Seth looked Beck up and down, and Beck did the same to him. "And you are?" Seth asked him.
"Beck" he said shortly.
Tori can clearly see that Beck was getting annoyed with Seth presents, which was a first because he was usually friendly with everyone. "Well Tori I would really like to talk some more but I'm meeting someone here. So here's my card and call me when you get a chance." Seth handing her the card.
"See ya" he waved goodbye and Tori waved back.
She looked at the card he gave her that had his name and number on it. Seth Summers record producer!
"Beck he's a record producer" Tori said to him.
Beck took the card out her hand and read it. "Wow he's is! I thought he was just a fanboy trying to hit on you"
"Beck!"
"What its true" He said, "Do you think he really wants to meet you?"
"I don't know, but I will take him up on that call" Tori taking the card back and looking at it.
"We're back!" Raven chimed, her and Dj popped back up with their drinks in their hand, and sliding in the booth. "What did we miss?"
"Some record producer named Seth just gave me his card" Tori handing the card to Raven.
"Thats awesome Tor!" She said excitedly, "Just be careful though".
"Why" asked Beck.
"There are people that comes to this club and poses as record producers when they really not" Dj answered. "Their main targets are usually pretty girls".
"Well I have a good eye for reading people, but I promise to be careful". Tori reassured them.
The group enjoyed their drinks while watching people sing karaoke songs. Tori was thinking about what Raven and Dj warned her, and she was hoping that wouldn't happen to her. Being a singer was what Tori truly wanted ever since she went to Hollywood Arts, and she prayed that once she decide to call Seth, it wouldn't be false hope.
"So what did you want to tell me?" Beck shaking Tori out her thoughts.
She just remember that she was gonna tell him about Jade before Seth had interrupted them. "I think we should take this outside" Tori suggested.
Beck nodded and got up from the booth along with Tori. "We're gonna go get some fresh air" She said to Dj and Raven.
"See ya in a minute" they said in unison not really paying attention to her.
Beck grabbed Tori's hand and lead her through the crowd until they reach the outside of the club. letting go of her hand, he turned to look at her. "Now what is?"
Tell him!
Tori sighed heavily, closing her eyes then opening them again before answering, "It's about Jade".
