Hey guys, sorry it took me so long to update this chapter. I've had a really bad cold the past couple of days and just wasn't in a productive mood. Thanks to everyone that reviewed and who also put me on favorite and alert :) Just one small favor from the ones who put me on alert, if you guys could please review. I'm grateful that you think this story is alert worthy and I would love to hear your opinions on the chapters. :) Now on to the story!

Disclaimer: I don't own Victorious

It was just another one of their stupid fights that happens every so often… or every day, but Beck has always loved Jade no matter what. I'm not really sure why, but deep down I'm sure he sees something in her that no other human being would. Right? Beck not in love with Jade anymore, he couldn't be serious, could he?

"You're not serious are you?"

"It's…" He paused for a moment I could see he was trying to find the right words. "I love Jade, don't get me wrong, but all this fighting is just tiring and it makes a person think twice about things, ya know?" I nodded in agreement and waited for him to continue. "I love Jade, but I'm not so sure I'm in love with her anymore."

"I see. So what are you planning to do now?" I asked.

"I'm not entirely sure. We ended it and I guess we see how it plays out for a while. Maybe this break will be good for us." He sighed. "Just don't know how Jade's going to be. I know she seems rough on the outside, but she's not entirely bad. She's got a softer side to her. She's just not as open about it because she doesn't want to seem too vulnerable." Jade, vulnerable? That's something I could never really picture her being, but then again when they did break up the last time it was the first time I've ever seen break down and cry. So who was I to judge?

"Listen, if you ever need someone to talk to I'm all ears." I smiled. Beck's someone I care about a lot and he's my friend, I couldn't let a friend be so down and not have anyone to talk to about it with.

"Thanks Tor, it means a lot." He gave me a smile and pulled up into my drive way. "Well my lady, this is your stop." He put his car in park as he did this. I grabbed my things and got out of the truck, shutting the door behind me.

"Thanks for the ride. It was nice to get a chance to talk." I smiled and he moved his hand through his hair.

"No problem Tor. Thanks for listening." He put his truck in reverse and started backing it up into the street. When he made it to the street he rolled down his window and called out, "I'll see you Monday and remember if you need a ride just call or text me!"

"I will!" I waved goodbye to him as he drove off. I'm glad Beck and I had a chance to talk like we did, with Jade around it would have made it impossible for that to ever happen. As I walked to my front door thinking about everything that happened throughout the day, and I couldn't be happier that it was the weekend and I could relax.

"Toriiiiiiii, is that you?" Trina called from the couch, not bothering to look up at the door. "Come rub my feetttttt," She whined. Well I guess I was going to relax as much as I could, that is if Trina didn't get on my nerves like she's doing now right now.

-Trina's making me rub her feet..I think I smell cheese.:/

I adjusted my glasses and I flipped the next page of my history book. I was spending my Saturday morning working on some homework so I'd be free for the rest of weekend. As I was writing the last of my notes up for class I heard my pear phone vibrate next to me on my desk. I picked it up and slid the lock screen out of the way, allowing for my message to pop up.

Hi tori! Hiiiii..what are you up to?

Even if it was through text, Cat always managed to express her peppiness. I typed back quickly to my redhead friend.

Hey cat, not much. Just working on some hw,hbu?

I hit send and kept my phone on my lap, knowing that Cat would answer momentarily. I closed my history book and notebook, pushing them off to the side when my phone went off again.

I'm trying to make potato juice xD...want to go to the mall with me in a bit?

Ignoring the part about her trying to make potato juice, I answered.

Sure, what time?

I didn't bother putting my phone down, I knew I wouldn't have to wait long for Cat to answer… and on that note my phone went off again.

How's 1?

Sounds good. C u then

I looked at my phone. 11:47.I better go shower if I wanted to be ready by at least 12:30. I grabbed the towel off of my bed and walked to the hallway bathroom. I turned the water on waiting for it to get hot before I undressed and got in. As I was waiting, I checked my phone for any updates on the slap. Nothing interesting except for Sinjin's repulsive update about how he enjoyed toes that smelled like cheese... I have no words. Beck's profile no longer said he was in a relationship with Jade, and so many girls from school liked that. I put my phone down on the counter and felt the water in the shower, hot but nothing that would be too hot to stand in. Perfect. I undressed quickly and jumped into the shower.

Once I was done showering and back in my room I dressed rather quickly. I put on a simple pair of skinny jeans, a purple tank top, and a three quarter off the shoulder grey hoodie. I was combing and drying my hair when I looked at the time on my phone. 12:15. I'd better hurry. I turned off the blow drier and put the still half wet hair into a messy side braid and when back into the bathroom to put in my contacts and some mascara on to open my eyes up a little bit more. Once I did that I ran back to my room and grabbed my converse and went downstairs to wait for Cat.

-Mall with the ever so hyper Cat :D

"Hehe! Tori look a giraffe!" I saw Cat run up to the store window pointing at a stuffed giraffe, almost the size of her. I walked over and looked at it. "It's so cute! Come Tori lets go inside." Just then she grabbed my arm and pulled me, dragging me inside the toy store. We walked around aimlessly playing with the toys they had on display. We tried on different hats and crowns near the dress up station. I put on a cowboy hat, posing in the mirror when I turned to ask what Cat thought of it, only to find that she wasn't near me.

"Cat?" I called out looking around for any signs of red hair.

I put the hat back where I found it and started walking around the store looking for Cat. Now… if I were Cat where would I have wondered off to? I looked at the Barbie section thinking she'd there, admiring all the pretty dolls, but no sign of her. Hmm… maybe I could try by the Lego's? I checked quickly, but still no sign of her. I was beginning to lose hope, maybe she left the store? I was walking towards the exit wondering where she could have gone off to, just then I heard loud giggling coming towards the store window.

"Torrrrii! Hehe! Loook!" Cat called towards me. There she was, sitting on the giraffe that we saw earlier. I couldn't help but let out a laugh.

"Let's go look at some other stores." I suggested.

"Kay kay!" She hoped off the giraffe, squealing as she did and followed me out the door.

We made our way to different stores, H&M, Forever 21, American Eagle, not really looking for anything to buy in particular. As we made our way out of Urban Outfitters we spotted Robbie, Rex, and Andre sitting on a bench.

"Hey guys!" I called over to them, their faces turned and they got up and walked towards Cat and I.

"Hey hey, what's up Tor, Kit Cat?" Andre greeted us.

"Just doing some girl things." I nonchalantly said.

"Girl things huh? Why wasn't I invited?" Rex asked, I glared over in Robbie's and Rex's direction.

"Girl things as in shopping" I probably should have said that from the start knowing how Rex is.

"I rode a giraffe, hehe" Cat happily chimed in, and I could see Andre giving her a questionable look. "One time my brother was watching animal planet and two giraffe's were on the TV. He threw yogurt at the TV so I couldn't watch anymore."

"Why did he do that?" Robbie questioned. I wonder what her answer to this will be.

"They were doing something…dirty." She acted like a small child afraid to say something that would get her in trouble.

"Dirty as in.."

"La la la la la" Cat sung blocking her hearing what Robbie had to say. Andre and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Why is Cat singing?" I turned around quickly and saw Beck holding a pretzel and a drink. Since when did he go to the mall?

"She was telling another one of her brother stories and told us giraffe's were doing something dirty, which Robbie thought it was a good idea to say what the dirty word was causing her to sing." I tried to say all in one breathe. Only now I was out of breath when I finished.

"So nothing out of ordinary?" Beck took a bite of his pretzel.

"Nope." I answered once getting my breathing back to normal. "What are you doing at the mall?"

"Andre and Robbie wanted to go, and Jade can't tell me I can't go anymore so I figured why not." He answered simply.

"Makes sense." We stood there watching Cat continue to block out Robbie by singing and Andre trying to tell Cat that Robbie wasn't going to say the word. "These are our friends."

"Yes, strange bunch aren't they?" I nodded in agreement as we continued to watch. "Want some of my pretzel?" I turned my head to look at Beck and he held out his pretzel towards me, giving me a smile as he did this.

"Thanks, but I'm okay for now." As I politely declined his expression changed. I knew exactly what he was doing. "Beck Oliver, that puppy dog look worked once and it's not going to work again." He let out a small laugh.

"Fine, but if you're looking for a pretzel later I won't be able to help you. It'll be gone by then." We both found ourselves laughing, unaware that Andre came up to us.

"Okay, so now that Cat finally stopped singing you guys want to go catch a movie since that couldn't happen last night?" Andre asked. I nodded and Beck did the same. We walked over to where Cat and Robbie were and as a group made our way to the movie theatre. What a fun day this is turning out to be.

That's it for the chapter, I wasn't really sure how to end it so I hope it's not too blah. lol. Thanks again to sunshineturtle09 for looking over most of the chapter and fixing any of my mistakes. I'll try and update soon, my break's almost over so once the semester starts again it's going to be a little difficult to update when I want. Thanks again for reading!
