AN: Anything in italics is the teammates in their confession. If anyone has seen the Amazing Race; you know when the teams talk about how they felt about that challenge and how they were upset and so on and so forth. I plan on keeping it in general because I don't want to break every chapter into 5 different stories. Anyways on to the story. Oh yeah. I do not own either Austin and Ally or Victorious or any other name brand things I put into the story. Also I put this story both under Austin & Ally and Victorious because if I put it under crossover no one would see it. So if I don't update it here check the other archive. K? Alright on to the story
"Hello teams you are all outside of the Marriott Hotel. As you all know a rock star has their reputation of crashing a hotel room. Well in order for you to get your credit card with the 1000 dollars on it you must go into the hotel and find the maid with the logo JS on their uniform and they will take you up to a room and you must clean it up before you can get your money or the clue that tells you what state to go to next. And I suggest you hurry because the Rat Race has officially begun!" Like before a pre recording of Jimmy Star popped up on everyone's built in screen. Seeing that everyone else had just listened to the same thing, the teams jetted out of their cars and into the elevator some teams ran around the front and up the main stairs to the hotel.
"Do you have a JS on your uniform?" "Do you have JS?" Do you have our clue?" The teams ran around asking every maid they saw. "OH! ANDRE, I found her. She has JS on her uniform" Cat yelled to her partner from across the lobby, he quickly ran over to her. "Hi, do you have our clue?" Cat asked hurriedly, she shook her head and motioned for them to follow her. The two followed her up to the top floor and into a disgustingly filthy room. The two immediately ran around cleaning up, vacuuming, and wiping down the counters.
"AUSTIN! I found her, I found the maid!" Tori said running over to the maid with the JS logo with Austin quickly running behind her. They followed her up to the fourth floor and on the way to their room they saw Cat and Andre almost finished with their room. This made Austin want to work even faster. The maid finally stopped at the room that they were assigned to cleaning, it was filthy. "I don't even clean MY room" Austin said as he and Tori stepped into the room.
"Beck! Get over here!" "Dez! Get over here" Jade and Trish yelled at the same time. Dez and Beck quickly walked over to their team mates and the maids then showed them up to the fourth floor where they would be cleaning a room. "Poor Ally" Trish said over her shoulder. "Ally, Ally." Trish yelled to her friend, as Ally looked up Trish pointed to the last maid that was waiting, Robbie and Ally quickly ran to her. As Robbie and Ally made their way to the fourth floor every team was now working on their room.
"DONE! DONE! WE'RE DONE!" Andre and Cat ran to the maid to get their clue, she walked through the room to make sure everything was clean and that someone could actually stay in it. She turned around now facing them with a smile and gave them their clue and their credit card. "Oh my God, thank you" Cat jumped and hugged the woman while Andre opened the clue. "Okay. Teams now that you have finished your first task make your way to your first state the home of the Philly cheese steak; Philadelphia Pennsylvania." Andre read off the clue to Cat. "Looks like we're going to Philly, Little Red!" Andre said generally happy. The two ran out of the room and made their way down to their car.
"DONE!" "DONE!" "DONE!" Three other teams finished all simultaneously; Robbie and Ally, Trish and Dez and Tori and Austin. The maids handed them their clue and now it was a foot race to get back to their cars.
The fact that I see team after team finishing and Beck and I are still cleaning up this hotel room really pisses me off, looks like I'll be the man in this partnership just like when we were dating.
"Hey Beck how about you hurry up! Its 2 in the morning and I'm ready to leave this hotel, so please will you finish up with the bathroom already." Jade yelled from the mini kitchen in the room.
"Still the same Jade I see, you never were the patient kind." He said from the bathroom.
"You know what? No, I'm not the same Jade I was in college because this Jade doesn't need you as a boyfriend not even as a friend. The only thing I need is that contract." Jade yelled obviously upset with him.
"You know Jade? I've grown up since college too and I'm not going to take your shit anymore! I did that enough when we were going out. And last time I checked you DO need me, if I'm not mistaken we're in teams for a reason, so you can try to do this without me but you need me babe" Beck said walking out of the bathroom pass Jade kissing her cheek as if to tease her. With a scowl Jade walked to the maid and asked for their clue. As the last team to finish they rushed down the stairs and into the range rover.
"So Ally tell me about yourself" Robbie said as he looked over to Ally.
" Well there isn't much to tell I'm a singer and song writer who had stage fright but eventually got over it, I love pickles, I have a pet goose that I stole from my malls pond and named it pickles, I graduated from MUNY in June, my father and I own a music store in Miami called Sonic boom, I was in the group Stray Kitties and not to mention that I fell head over heels in love with my best friend only to find out that he didn't want a relationship that's why I went to a college over 10,000 miles away from him." Ally said as she chewed on her pickled.
"You were in Stray Kittie? Omg, ha! I can't believe that!" Robbie said as he filled with laughter at the idea of his partner in a girl group dressed up as big cats. Ally glared at him.
"Out of all that all you got was me being in Stray Kittie? And yes I was in Stray Kittie I was the one that looked like a dominatrix all black and everything and it's not that funny." Ally said laughing at the memories of her back in high school.
"So the blonde haired boy back at the hotel was your old best friend I'm guessing." Robbie asked. Ally nodded her as to say yes.
"Enough about me what about you Mr. Robbie Shapiro? Please do tell me your inner deepest thoughts" Ally said giggling.
"Hm, where do I begin? Well I was the weird boy in high school that always had a puppet on his hand. I have only had three girlfriends in my entire life, I can list all the states in order from front to back, I was like you, running away from my problems. I went to a school far away from everyone, my family, and my friends just to start over. I thought that just maybe, maybe where I was going I wouldn't be known as the geeky Robbie Shapiro everyone at Hollywood Arts knew me to be. I tried to run from my past so many times, I even tried to commit suicide. That's why I need to win this Ally; I need something to live for." Robbie said tears forming in his eyes the car went silent after that.
"You know you're pretty cute right?" Austin said as he looked over to Tori flashing one of his Austin Moon smiles with one hand on the wheel and leant back trying to charm her with his "bad boy" personality.
"Ha! Aw! You are just too cute" Tori said leaning over and pinching his cheeks. Austin swatted at her hands. "How old are you anyways? 18? You're a little pee wee!" She said laughing and going back to her phone.
"Actually I'm 21 babe" Austin said winking at her. Tori rolled her eyes and continued to text whoever she was talking to. Before Tori could react Austin snatched her phone and went through it. "Oo, who is Jason? Maybe your boyfriend." Austin teased her while Tori reached over trying to grab her phone.
"Austin come on! Give me back my phone! Shouldn't you be watching the road?" Tori yelled still attempting to grab her phone back.
"Oh, please I'm looking at the road." Austin said turning back his attention to the road just in time to see two headlights coming straight for them. "AUSTIN! WATCH OUT" Tori screamed as Austin swerved the car off the road.
"You know Cat I've really missed you" Andre said looking over and smiling at the red head who was currently singing along to The Way by Ariana Grande. "Oo! Andre let's play a game, let's play 21 questions" Cat said turning to face Andre. "Alright you start" Andre said.
"Okay. What is your favorite color?" Cat asked.
"Purple. What is your favorite animal?" Andre asked as he merged into the next lane.
"Giraffe. How did you and your girlfriend meet?" Cat asked giddy, she was a sucker for a good love story.
"Well she goes to Spellman which is like right across the street from Morehouse, so I was walking across the street to go get a cup of coffee and she hit me with her car. Nothing too serious, but she got out to help me and I asked for coffee and the rest is history. So do you still have that purple stuffed giraffe I gave you our freshman year?" Andre asked.
Cat reached for something in her bag and pulled out the stuffed animal that Andre was just referring to. "Of course! I slept with it every night when I was away at college. Who was your very first crush?" Cat asked still holding the giraffe.
"Ha! You're not going to believe this, but my first crush was you! Anyways whatever happened between you and Robbie?" Andre said bashfully.
"Robbie and I weren't as happy as everyone made it out to be, we went out for a few months and quickly realized we weren't as compatible as we thought." Cat said. Andre could tell the topic made her feel uncomfortable. "So Mr. Harris I was your first crush huh?" Cat said playfully teasing him. "Hm, good to know." Cat said smiling as she turned her head to the window falling asleep. Andre looked over and smiled to himself, watching as she snuggled with the purple giraffe he had given to her years ago.
"Dez stop looking so pitiful, you can get in the front now." Trish said as she looked at Dez through the rearview mirror. Dez lit up with giddy as he climbed over the seat to get in the front. "DEZ! GET YOUR ASS OUT OF MY FACE!" Trish yelled pushing him into the seat.
"You know? I kind of missed you when we went off to College!" Dez said messing with the radio turning it from station to station.
"You did? I missed bullying you, now THAT was fun!" Trish said laughing as she thought about what happened in the past.
"Same here!" Dez said laughing. "You know Dez? You're not half bad." Trish said merging in to the left lane.
Look I really don't think Dez is a cool person but if sweetening him up to make him work harder will get us across that finish line first then hell he's my best friend!
