No POV
That night, after Lila left, while the two women were laying in bed, the talked about their plans for the future. They didn't end up sleeping that night, talking until after the sun came up the next morning about everything.
Near one in the morning, Blake woke up crying, in need of a change, which Jade does, giving Tori a chance to relax, the Latina still weary from seeing Lila earlier. When Jade is done with the diaper change, she climbs back into bed with Tori, pulling the Latina close to her.
A couple of hours later, they decide that they are indeed girlfriends, and still decide to take everything slow, fear of Jade pushing Tori too far, and Tori afraid to hurt Jade.
Near sunrise, both girls take turns going to the bathroom, Jade joking about showering together, but Tori just simply shakes her head no, both taking separate showers before breakfast, both hoping the water will help wake them up.
After both showers, they get dressed, putting on a pair of comfortable jeans and t-shirt each as they get some similar clothes on Blake, heading out for breakfast instead of eating in. After getting dressed, the three leave the apartment, Jade locking the door behind her.
"Where are we going?" Tori asks, her son in her arms, following Jade down the hallway.
"I called Bee while you were showering." Jade says, purposely ignoring the question. "I was supposed to go in today, but called off. I had to explain why I called off, and she's okay with it." She says, pushing the button for the elevator.
"Okay. That doesn't answer my question though." Tori says, following Jade in the elevator.
"It's a secret." Jade says, pushing the button for the main lobby. "How are classes going?" She asks, turning to face Tori.
"Going good. Hopefully, I'm acing my classes. Or at least, passing them." Tori says, giving Jade a curious look. "What are you planning?" She asks, confused by Jade's actions.
"What do you mean?" Jade asks, feigning confusion.
"Why would you call off? You love working with Bee too much to take a sick day." Tori asks as the elevator stops at the lobby, the doors opening.
"I can't take a day off to make sure my girlfriend is okay after seeing her ex?" Jade asks, serious now.
"You can, but it's weird. Especially because you have tomorrow off, so why take today off?" Tori asks, following Jade pass the lobby.
"I have my reasons." Jade says, holding the door open for Tori and Blake to exit. "Besides, I have a plan in the works. I still have tomorrow off, but it's for something completely different from your losing ex stopping by." She adds, walking with Tori to her car.
"Okay, what do you have planned? Can you give me any idea?" Tori asks, shifting Blake when he starts to slip.
"All I can say, is that the band will be back together." Jade says when they near her car, unlocking the doors.
"What band?" Tori asks, confused, as she puts Blake in his baby seat.
Almost a half hour later, Tori questioning Jade the entire drive, they pull into a King's. As they walk into the building, Tori tries one last time. "What did you mean, the band back together? What band?" She asks as Jade opens the door to the restaurant.
"You'll find out tomorrow." Jade says, walking with Tori to the podium where the waitress is standing to take them to their seats. "Two and an infant." She tells the waitress before the blonde employee can ask.
"Follow me." The blonde, who's name tag reads 'Morgan', says, grabbing two menus, and leading the two women towards the seats in the back.
"Tell me what you're planning." Tori says, following Morgan.
"It's a secret. Just know that everything's set, and that you'll need to be up by 7:30 tomorrow morning, showered and dressed by eight or so, and ready to leave by nine." Jade says, pulling the chair out for Tori to sit while the waitress grabs a baby seat for Blake.
"Where are we going?" Tori asks, handing Blake to Jade when the waitress returns, the former Goth putting the infant in the baby seat for Tori.
"A party. Of sorts." Jade says, taking her seat across from Tori after putting Blake between them.
"A party? I don't think I like what you're planning." Tori says, opening the menu to look at the breakfast options.
"Everything will be fine, don't worry." Jade says, leaving the menu where it is.
"Hi. Welcome to King's. May I take your drink orders?" The waitress, Morgan, asks as she takes the little notepad out to write down their orders.
"Coffee. Black, two sugars." Jade says, eyes on Tori.
"Can I get a glass of orange juice?" She asks, looking away from Jade long enough to ask the waitress.
"Of course. Are you ready to order breakfast, or do you need more time?" Morgan asks as she writes down the drinks.
"I'm ready. Tori?" Jade asks, placing her menu aside.
"Yeah, I'm ready." Tori says, folding up her menu and setting in on top of Jade's. "Can I get the scrambled eggs and toast, with sausage on the side?" She asks.
"Yep." Morgan says, writing down the order. "And you?" She asks Jade, collecting the menus.
"Same. But can I get bacon instead of sausage?" Jade asks, eyes never leaving Tori.
"Of course. Your food will be out in about fifteen minutes." Morgan says, writing down the order. "Your drinks will be here in a minute."
After the waitress walks away, Tori looks back at Jade, confused by the slight glare on Jade's face. "What?" She asks, unsure why Jade is sending her the glare.
"Were you checking her out?" Jade asks, leaning forward.
"No." Tori answers, slightly confused. "I was just being nice. It's not exactly nice to ignore the person taking your orders." She points out.
"Good." Jade says, her mood changing. "Make sure you get to bed by ten tonight. Give you plenty of time to get ready tomorrow morning." She says, leaning back.
The two continue to talk until the waitress returns with their drinks. When the waitress walks away, Jade is happily surprised to see that Tori kept her attention away from the waitress. Going back to talking, Tori going back to her questioning about what Jade has planned.
Soon after, the waitress returns, handing Tori and Jade their food. After she walks away, the two start eating, keeping conversation small until they finish. A half hour later, as Jade sets the money down on the table for the bill, even leaving a bit of a tip.
"You left a tip for the waitress after thinking I was checking out?" Tori questions, following Jade out the door of the restaurant, Blake in his mother's arms.
"She didn't hit on either of us, and you didn't check her out, regardless of the fact that her nipples were hard." Jade says, a smirk on her face, as she leads Tori to the car.
"Why did you happen to notice that?" Tori asks, glaring at Jade. "Were you checking her out?" She asks, jealousy in her voice.
"Hell no." Jade says, slightly offended. "They were just hard to miss, considering her chest is bigger than mine and she kept them in my face." She says as she unlocks the car and opens the rear passenger door so Tori can put Blake in his car seat.
"They were in my face too, and I didn't notice." Tori says, buckling in Blake. "What does that say on whose focus is where?" She asks, hiding a smirk of her own, pretending to be serious.
"Hey, excuse me for trying to stare at your face when her tits are point fucking blank." Jade says as Tori turns around to face her.
"I'm messing with you. Relax." Tori says, giving Jade a hug and a quick kiss. "I know you wanted to look at me. I could tell when she bent over in front of you to put your food down, how you tried to look over her." She says, closing the door.
"Good." Jade says, heading towards the driver's seat. "I'd hate to be the one to inform your dad that you went mysteriously missing." She says as she opens the door.
"And explain why Blake is parentless and why you seemingly did nothing to stop the killer." Tori counters as she climbs in the passenger side. "And saying you hid the body won't do anything. We all know that you'd proudly admit to killing anyone who hurt me, especially to my dad." She points out, smirking at the frustrated sigh of agreement from the driver's seat.
During the drive back to the apartment, the two continue their back and forth, both trying to one-up one another.
The rest of the day, the two hang around the apartment, playing with Blake when he's awake. Jade, for the last few hours of the day, stares at Tori in slight curiousness after the Latina received a text, causing the brunette to stop trying to figure out what Jade has planned for the next day.
"Who texted?" Jade asks as she and Jade wipe their make up off and brush their teeth before bed.
"When?" Tori asks, tossing the make up wipe in the trash.
"Earlier. Just before dinner?" Jade says, doing the same.
"Oh, that was my dad. He texted to see what I was up to in a few days. He invited us to dinner. It's his anniversary on the force." Tori says, putting toothpaste on her toothbrush.
"Why couldn't he have waited to ask that? He was gonna be here tomorrow." Jade mumbles, catching Tori's attention.
"Why is he coming here tomorrow?" Tori asks, spitting the toothpaste out as she rinses off the brush, staring at Jade as the pale woman starts to brush her teeth.
"You'll find out around lunch time." Jade says, spitting out some toothpaste. "Are you sure that's who texted?" She asks, putting the brush back in her mouth.
"Yeah. Why?" Tori asks, staring at Jade.
"Just asking." Jade says, dismissing the conversation.
Finishing in silence, the two rinse off their toothbrushes and put them back in the container, using a disposable hand towel to wipe off the residual water and toothpaste from themselves and the counter.
Heading into their rooms, Blake asleep comfortably in Tori's room, the give each other a brief kiss as they separate, both having thoughts on the next day. Jade is thinking about what Tori knows about her plans tomorrow, while Tori is thinking about Jade's plans.
The next morning, Tori is the first to awake, picking up her still slumbering son and checking to see if he needs changed. Slightly surprised he's still dry, she heads towards her dresser to grab a set of undergarments and clothes for the day. Heading into Jade's room, she's slightly stunned to see a nude Jade sleeping on top of her covers, the thin blanket laying on the ground beside the bed, her fans not running.
"When did she get them pierced?" Tori asks herself out loud, staring at the pierced nipples of the pale skinned woman laying on the bed.
"Couple months before I bumped into you." Jade mumbles, catching Tori off guard. "What's up?" She asks, sitting up and stretching, not noticing the slight gasp from Tori at the sight.
"Can you keep and eye on Blake for me real quick? I'm gonna take a shower." Tori says, barely loud enough for Jade to hear, eyes never leaving the large breasts of her girlfriend.
"Sure. Head to the shower. Let me put a robe on and I'll be with Blake in a minute. I'll keep an ear out for him." Jade says, getting out of bed, eyes closed as she stands up. "Stop staring at my tits and take your shower." She says, eyes still closed.
"How did you...?"
"I know you. You used to stare at my tits all through high school." Jade says, cutting off Tori. "Especially Christmas when I told you 'don't be shy'." She says, finally opening her eyes. "I'm surprised no one noticed how much attention you paid ny girls." She says, strutting towards her closet to grab her robe.
"It wasn't that often." Tori mumbles as she leaves Jade's room, looking away from the pale ass, ignoring the laughter from Jade as she does.
Within a half hour, Tori was drying herself off as she shuts off the shower. Wrapping her hair in a dry towel, She puts her purple half-cup bra and matching lace bikini cut panties.
After putting on her blue skinny jeans and purple shirt, she takes the towel off her hair and sets it aside for Jade to use when she showers later. Brushing her teeth a moment later, she doesn't notice the door opening and Jade walks in, Blake in her arms.
"Hurry. I need to pee." Jade says, handing Blake to Tori. "Breakfast is made. There's a plate with eggs, bacon, sausage, and toast on the dining room table. Orange juice as well." She says, pushing Tori and Blake out.
"I forgot my mascara." Tori says, staring at the door. "Oh well. I have more in my room. You want to watch mommy do her make up before breakfast?" She asks Blake, who only looks up at her and smiles. "I'll take it as a yes." She says, heading into her room.
A little over five minutes later, Jade walks into the dining room, laughing to herself at the sight of Tori trying to feed Blake. "Having some difficulty?" She asks, heading into the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee.
"Shut up." Tori says, attempting to give Blake a spoonful of mushed bananas, a favorite of his.
"Here. You eat, I'll feed Blake." Jade says as she sets her coffee mug near Tori's glass of orange juice as she sits down beside Tori.
"Fine. If he spits up on you, I'm laughing and texting everyone a picture." Tori says, carefully handing Blake to Jade.
"He likes me too much to do that." Jade says smugly, leaning Blake back as she grabs the spoon from Tori, dipping it in the small jar.
"Well, he loves me too much, but that hasn't stopped him yet." Tori counters, taking a bite of her toast.
A minute later, Tori is glaring at the pale skinned woman beside her, who is feeding her son with ease. "Told you." Jade says smugly as she puts a small spoonful in Blake's mouth again.
"Yeah yeah." Tori says, looking away from the two beside her as she eats some of her eggs.
A little over ten minutes later, Tori's washing the plate and fork she use for breakfast, the glass still half full of orange juice. As she puts the fork and plate in the dish drainer, she feels a pair of arms wrapped around her waist. "Where's Blake?" Tori asks, turning around to wrap her arms around Jade's shoulders.
"In his playpen in the dining room." Jade says, pushing Tori against the edge of the sink. "You need to change. Go put on a nice dancing dress and a pair of comfortable shoes." She says, giving Tori a kiss.
"And why should I dress so nicely?" Tori says as Jade pulls away from the kiss.
"I have something planned, and you are not dressed properly for the event." Jade says, pulling away from Tori. "I'm going to change too. I need your help moving the couch and loveseat. I already moved the tables in the living room." She says, turning around. "And curl your hair. You look sexy with curly hair when you dance." She says, disappearing into the hallway.
Finishing off her orange juice, she puts the glass in the sink and heads into her room, noting Blake not in his play pen.
"Do you have Blake?" Tori calls into Jade's closed door as she passes.
"Yeah. I'm getting him dressed." Jade answers, sounding slightly muffled, possibly from her putting a shirt on.
"Okay. Just checking." Tori says, heading for her room.
A half hour later, Tori leaves her room, her hair curled from around her ears down, a purple dress similar to the one she wore for Trina's birhtweek when she first joined Hollywood Arts, with the exception that the back is missing the openings the other had and it's black with purple stripes, not white with black stripes.
"Ooh, mommy looks sexy, doesn't she Blake?" Jade says from her doorway.
"Aunty Jade looks just as good." Tori says, eyeing Jade's black strapless dress. The chest part is similar to the dress Jessica Rabbit wore in 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit', minus the color and length. Instead of reaching to her knees, Jade's dress reaches to her thighs, a slit going up a couple of inches. Jade's hair is curly like it used to be in high school, but the bangs are around her head, looking like a braided head band.
After admiring each other for a few moments, Jade licks her lips when she notices Tori isn't wearing a bra under her dress.
"And Blake, you look so handsome." Tori says after some silence, noting the stylish suit her son has on, including a small blue tie and black dress shoes.
"Yeah. I helped Bee pick it out. It was supposed to be for a party, but she okayed it being used early." Jade says, handing Blake to Tori.
"How many people are coming if we have to move the furniture?" Tori asks, placing Blake in his playpen after Jade moves it against the wall, under the partially open window where he can feel a slight breeze.
"Not a lot. Just the old gang from school, including Trina." Jade says as she heads to the couch to go to move it. "As well as Bee, Paul, your dad, Sam, and Sikowitz. Maybe Lane." Jade says after Tori helps her move the couch to the far wall.
"And why is everyone coming over? And why do we have to dress so nice?" Tori asks as they head to the loveseat to move it.
"A special occasion. To answer both questions." Jade says, picking up one side as Tori lifts the other.
"What time is everyone supposed to get here?" Tori asks, sitting on the love seat, staring at Jade.
"It was supposed to be noon, but your dad texted me while you were showering and said he and everyone else would be here in about a half hour or so." Jade says, sitting beside Tori, shifting so her feet are over Tori's lap.
"So, what are we going to do to pass the time?" Tori asks, rubbing Jade's thighs.
"I can think of a few things, but Blake might not want to see his mother in such positions." Jade says seductively. "So let's play a game instead." She says, staring at Tori.
"Which game?" Tori asks, eyes on Jade as her tan hands slide back and forth on pale thighs.
"20 questions. Let's get properly caught up." Jade suggests, her tone serious.
"Okay. I'll start." Tori says, smiling. "Have you ever had a girlfriend? Not including me." She asks, staring at Jade.
"No. I haven't. None I could call a girlfriend though." Jade answers. "My turn. Why move to New York after high school?"
"It felt right." Tori says after a sigh. "No one knew me here, and he was far away." She says, looking away from Jade momentarily. "Me again. Why did you treat me like crap in high school?" She asks, smirking at the slightly annoyed look on Jade's face.
"Should've seen that coming." Jade says, rolling her eyes. "I was angry at you at first. I kept thinking you wanted Beck. After the Platinum Music Awards, when you denied Beck, which was kinda funny in hindsight now, I saw you as a friend. After that, it was hard to change, so I kept being a gank." She answers, looking at Jade. "Me again. Were you ever interested in Beck?"
"Honestly, at first. I wasn't sure if I was gay or bi at the time, and Beck was a good looking guy. After the kiss, I had no interest in him as more than a friend." Tori answers, locking eyes with Jade. "Were you ever interested in Paul?" She asks while fighting laughter.
"Hell no!" Jade says, laughing. "I knew he was flamingly gay since day one. Besides, I realized I was full lesbian by then." She says, her laughter not dying down.
"Good. I was a little worried for a bit." Tori says, laughing with Jade, Blake staring at the two women with interest.
The two continue the game until there's a knock at the door. "I got it." Jade says, slightly laughing from Tori admitting that she only dated Ryder and Steven because she reminded her of a couple of butch lesbians she knew from her old school.
"Jadey!" Cat yells, crushing Jade in a bear hug.
"1." Jade starts, smirking when Cat releases her quickly. "You're getting better. Hello Samantha." Jade says with a smirk when the blonde scowls at her.
"Fight nice you two." David Vega says, smiling at the interaction. "Hello sweetie." He says when Tori comes up with Blake in her arms.
"You have a kid?" Someone Tori hasn't seen in over a year and a half, Beck, says. "What have I missed?" He says with a small smile.
"I got a surgery so I could get myself a penis and I knocked her up." Jade says, wrapping an arm around Tori's shoulder.
"Oh god." Trina says, sighing. "I'm just gonna take my nephew and go." She says, trying to take Blake from his mother's hands, stopping when Jade glares at her. "Wow, it's nice to see someone good for you instead of using you." She says, nodding her head in approval at Jade's actions.
"Can we come in now?" André asks, staring at the two apartment residents in slight confusion.
"Sure." Tori says, walking to the side, Jade going with her.
"So, when do we find out the big thing you invited us here for?" Cat asks, taking a seat on the couch, Sam beside her.
"Once Bee gets here." Jade says, sitting on the love seat, grabbing Tori to make the Latina sit on her lap as Beck sits beside them, grabbing Trina and making her sit on his lap like Tori is Jade.
"What did we miss?" Tori asks, staring at the two beside her.
"I told you I was dating the hottest guy in Hollywood Arts." Trina says with a shrug of her shoulders as David sits beside Cat on the couch and André and Robbie take a couple chairs from the dining room to sit on.
"I thought you were talking about Sinjin." Tori says, hiding her laughter at the thought.
"Ew!" Trina cries as everyone else laughs at the disgusted look on Trina's face.
"I'll get that." Tori says with a laugh as she gets off Jade's lap after handing Blake to his grandfather. "Hey Bee." Tori says, hugging the woman.
"I didn't miss anything, did I?" Bee asks, walking into the apartment.
"Miss what?" Tori asks, confused.
"Never mind." Bee says with a smile, waving at Jade.
"Good. Now that everyone is here, I have an announcement." Jade says, giving her boss a hug.
"What kind of announcement?" Cat asks, slightly shaking in her seat.
"Victoria Dawn Vega. I know this is way too soon, but..." Jade says, getting down to one knee and pulling a small box from a hidden compartment on the loveseat. "Will you marry me?" She asks, opening the box to show a very nice engagement ring.
"YES!" Tori yells, leaping off the love seat to tackle Jade with a hug and kisses.
After making out for a few minutes, stopping only after a loud 'ew' from Trina. "You're kinda jumping the gun, aren't you?" The eldest Vega sister asks, a smile on her face at the happiness on her sister's.
"Yeah. We are." Tori says, eyes on the diamond ring on her left ring finger. "Hey, what was that big thing in your room?" She asks, eyes not straying from her ring.
"A gift. Something I hope we'll always remember." Jade says, standing up and heading into her room.
"Okay?" Tori asks as Jade returns, a big box in her hand. "A street sign?" She asks when Jade opens the box and pulls out a square shaped metal sign from the box.
"Something like that." Jade says, turning the sign around to show Tori the front.
"Did you steal a roadwork sign?" Sam asks with a laugh when she recognizes the sign, but doesn't see the full writing.
"Yeah. A few days ago. I painted over the words 'work' and 'ahead'. After it dried, I painted some new words." Jade says, smiling at the stunned look on Tori's, and everyone else's, face.
"'We'll make it work'." Tori whispers, smiling as she reads the words. "You really want us to work no matter what." She says, standing up again.
"Of course." Jade says, setting the sign down to embrace Tori in a hug. "Always."
Sorry for the weird ending. The idea for Jade to steal a roadwork sign and painting it to say 'we'll make it work' is courtesy of Mooncheese1331, the original author of this fic. All credit is theirs, not mine.
I hope everyone enjoyed this. Unfortunately, there will not be a sequel or epilogue. Maybe a one-shot to show the future, but I can't say it'll actually happen.
Thank you for reading, and please review if you wish.
Blessed Be.
