Oh, and if any of you just happen to like the anime Fruits Basket and love the pairing Yuki/Tohru, you should check out my friend falbreezy's fanfics. They are awesome.

Enjoy!

Tori took a bite of her pizza. Rex was being fixed, from when Jade threw him out the window. Cat was getting a check-up from a pediatrician. When Tori had asked her about it, Cat had absent-mindedly started mumbling some Broadway song. Tori had decided to simply drop it.

That left Tori alone. In the peace or quiet, able to think independently and freely for herself.

Nothing scared her more than this alternative.

Right then and there, Tori made a decision. Beck Oliver was going to be her friend, whether he liked it or not.

But if he didn't, Tori wasn't the forceful type. So she could only hope.

…

Beck sighed and tossed his phone on the floor. What was he going to do?

Alyssa had called another casting director. Well, really, the anonymous agent that Alyssa's agent had hired for her had called, but it was the thought that counts, right?

And this time, one of the money-hungry directors had called back.

So, what's wrong with becoming the next big thing? What's so bad about starring alongside Selena Gomez in "The Thirst Games"? Why wasn't Beck Oliver just ecstatic?

One problem. The trilogy was filming in Australia for three years. Being a star would cost him his family, friends, and the kids at his school who knew his name (but, of course, he didn't know theirs, because they were all nobodies).

Once again, he asked himself a question.

What was he going to do?

Suddenly he heard a knock at the door. "Who is it?" He yelled.

"It's Tori!" a voice yelled back.

Oh great, Beck thought. Another problem to deal with.

Tori. He shouldn't have thought of her as a problem. She was the drop dead gorgeous light of his life, for heaven's sake. But she betrayed you, you know, a voice inside his head nagged. Nevertheless, Beck pushed it away and opened the door. "Can I come in?" Tori asked. "Please?" Beck sighed and opened the door.

"Wow." She remarked.

"What?" Beck questioned.

"You cleaned your RV." Tori answered.

"Yeah. I couldn't find my laptop, and by the time I found it, my room had cleaned itself."

Tori giggled, and cleared her throat. "Beck, I'm here to—"

"I know why you're here."

Tori blushed. "Yeah, I guess I made it kind of obvious. Listen, Beck, I'm really—"

"It's fine Tori." Beck cut her off. "You were only trying to help André. I mean, in a way, it's kind of nice to know that I could tell you anything and you would keep it a secret."

"Thanks, Beck."

"But while you're here," Beck said. Too late to go back now, Beck. "I kind of need to talk about something with someone, because I kind of feel like I'm going to burst. I would tell Cat or Robbie, but Cat would tell everyone in the school and Rex would make some rude remark about it." Tori nodded in understanding, so Beck continued.

"You know how I'm dating Alyssa Vaughan?"

Tori nodded. "How could one not hear about that?"

"Anyways, so apparently I'm not famous enough to date her. Except, Alyssa's kind of got her mind set on this whole, relationship thing. So, she got me some casting director and told him to find a movie I could star in."

"Wow, Beck. That's really great."

Beck blushed slightly. "Thanks. So now, every other day, I've been getting calls from casting directors saying that I'm not famous enough to be in their movie. But then, this one guy called me and said that he wanted me to star with Selena Gomez in 'The Thirst Games' trilogy. The only thing is that it's filming somewhere in Australia for three years."

Tori took a moment to contemplate this, then asked, "So, you would have to leave Hollywood to go film the movies…for three years?" Beck nodded. "Well, I can't make that decision for you. But, I think…you would go."

A look of confusion swept across Beck's masculine facial features. "You would? But what about all my friends and family?"

"Well, as for your family, if they were bold enough to let you go, then they obviously wouldn't be losing too much sleep. And, honestly, as for your friends, everything just seems so…broken right now, it wouldn't really matter all that much." She paused. "I don't know if you've thought about this, but Alyssa wouldn't miss you. She could just hop on a private jet and go have lunch and yoga with you every day, with all the money her dad has."

Beck chuckled. "Yeah," he admitted. "I guess it's true."

Suddenly, Tori's phone buzzed. "Oops, I gotta go. See you later Beck."

And with that, she was gone. Beck thought about what she had said. But was it really worth it, giving up his life here for fame, fortune, and a love that wasn't guaranteed to succeed?

All Beck knew was that if he went, he definitely would not come back the same person.
