Tori's Idea

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Victorious or have any affiliation with it or any other fan fics!

Now the only people at the table were me and Tori.

"Where did the others go?" I asked.

"They already finished their lunches and went to class. What planet were you on?" she said.

I had pretty much lost my appetite. Jade and Andre had gone off together and I was too mind-boggled to notice. I just stared at my food in disbelief, oblivious to everything going on around me. Tori leaned in and waved her hand in front of my face.

"Hello? Beck? Earth to Beck!" she shouted.

"Wha-what? Oh, hey Tori. Nothing...what's up with you?" I was rambling.

"This is really bothering you, isn't it?"

"What?"

"Jade and Andre going on a trip together."

"Why would that bother me?"

"Well, it might be due to the fact that you're head over heels in love with Jade."

I could feel my jaw drop. I had done my best to hide my feelings for Jade and based on the fact that no one ever talked to me about it, I assumed I was doing a good job. I couldn't believe Tori figured me out.

"How do you kn-"

"Oh come on, it's so obvious the way you fawn over her and how excited you get when you get to talk to or about her and how pained you look when you see Jade and Andre together."

"It's really that obvious?"

"Yeah...we talk about it all the time. Basically everyone knows except for Jade and Andre. I still don't know how they don't know."

"Great..."

"Can you be honest with me? It's killing you inside, isn't it?"

"Yeah...I just don't know what to do..."

"I have a suggestion."

"Oh yeah? And what's that?"

"Go on a date with me."

I looked at Tori quizzically. Could I really go on a date with Tori? I mean, sure she was nice and fun and she was definitely cute. She was also smart and talented. She was the normal guy's dream girl.

But she wasn't Jade. I just didn't think of Tori that way. I couldn't.

"As in become boyfriend and girlfriend date?"

"We don't have to actually be boyfriend and girlfriend. But it's not healthy for you to obsess over one girl like you are. I just think it would be good for you to see other girls. It'll help you get over Jade or at least get your mind off of her."

I hated to admit it but Tori had a good point. Jade was at the forefront of my thoughts most of the time and it was painful for me. Maybe going out with another girl would be good for me. It was intimidating for me since I've never actually been on a date before. Still, I might as well try.

"All right. One date," I told her.

"Cool, say...Saturday night while Jade and Andre are away?"

"All right...I'll pick you up at seven then?"

"Sounds good. I gotta get to class. See you then, Beck."

Tori picked up her lunch and bag and left me alone at the table. I sat there wondering what on earth I had just gotten myself into. Would this really help me with my issue with Jade? As strange as it felt, I suppose it was worth a shot. Jade and I couldn't be together thanks to Andre so maybe it would be better if I moved on. Oh man...if only I knew what was going to happen...

Well...that day started normal...but this was still only the beginning of my regrets.

missamerika91 - It'll take a while but it'll definitely be Bade. For now, I basically have an idea. All I can do is run with it.

Just Say'n - Just going to have to wait and see. Even I'm not sure what's going to happen yet; it's still being written. I'll definitely take your idea into consideration though.

Courage1220 - I personally don't get Jandre either but between Andre and Robbie, who do you think Jade is more likely to pick? I'm definitely throwing other ideas for stories around. I have another large project in the works that I'm trying to figure out (It'll be the biggest project I ever do if I ever finish it) and also thinking about potential one-shots.

It'll be a while until the next update. There's still a lot of writing to be done and a lot of plot for me to work out.
