AN: Did you guys see the new episode? Bade is officially over! OMG, maybe now Bori will rule the world! Bori, baby!(as quoted by MakingItShine)
So let me just say this for once and for all. I hate Valentine's Day. Nothing personal. It just reminds me of the fact that a lot of people hate me.
So, I forgot to put a disclaimer (Thanks-a-lot reviewers! JK, it was totally my fault and I love you all). So, I, olliegatfms, most certainly, do not own Victorious. The site is called Fanfiction. Note the fiction part.
Thanks for all the reviews and for all who favorited my story!
sunshineturtle09: LOL, thanks!
americanhoney139: I know, right? He would have made a much better Gale than that Liam Hensworth guy. I'm glad you caught that! Thanks!
CatHeartsU: Aww! IheartUToo! :) I think that you have a really great storyline, but it doesn't really fit in with the ideas I have for this story. If you wrote it, I would read it!
BigStuOU: Thanks!
MakingItShine: I loved your review so much that I quoted it. Thanks!
Jeremy Shane: Thanks!
EricaBRT: Obligado!
Without further ado, Chapter 3.
…
After Tori left Beck's RV, she finally digested the information that Beck had told her. Beck's going to be a movie star, Tori repeated over and over in her head. Beck's going to be a movie star.
If one would think that it would have broken Tori's heart to tell Beck that he should trade friends for fame and fortune, that one would be right. It was then that Tori told herself that if she loved someone, she should set him free. If he never came back, he was never hers to begin with. It may seem cliché to quote such things, but then again, Tori was a very cliché person. You know, what with mini ceramic guitars and Fuzzini boots.
…
Jade balled her hand into a fist and pounded it against the cold metal door. She could not believe she was about to do this. Normally she would have just forced Sinjin or Tori to do it, but Sinjin ran every time Jade entered a hallway, and she and Tori weren't exactly, you know, being nice to each other at the moment. Well, Jade wasn't ever nice to Tori, but even Tori, it seemed, was mad at Jade. And what, you ask, was Jade West about to do? Something she'd never done before.
Apologize.
…
The boom, boom, boom of a fist against the door awoke Beck Oliver from his deep sleep. Beck looked over at his alarm clock. What the crap, he thought, it's two in the morning. Another knock. Beck groaned and opened the door to someone he thought he'd never seen this early.
Jade.
"May I come in?" She asked. An extremely bewildered Beck nodded groggily and stepped aside.
Jade sat down on the bed. She inhaled sharply. "Look, Beck. The reason I'm here so early is because I was afraid you wouldn't let me in if you could think straight. So even if you remember nothing, I'm going to say this anyways.
"I don't expect to get you back. You have a new girlfriend, and as much as I hate that, I'm choosing to respect it. But let me explain something. The reason I hesitated was because I was shocked. I never expected Andre, of all people, to like me. So I'm asking, not for a relationship, but for a friendship. I never meant to hurt you."
Beck sighed. "It took me a little while to figure out that you hesitated out of shock. But then, when I did...look. You're right, we can't have a relationship. But, we could try being friends for a little while."
Jade nodded. "I understand. I mean, it's not like you could just break up with your multi-million dollar girlfriend without being blackballed in Hollywood."
"Thanks for lifting the pressure, Jade."
"You're welcome."
"Um, I don't mean to be rude, but it's kind of two-fifteen in the morning and we have a history quiz tomorrow."
Jade snorted. "Since when did you start caring about school?"
"It's always nice to have a back-up plan."
"A back-up plan?"
"Will you please get out of my house?"
"You mean RV?"
"Jade..."
"Fine. You win." Jade huffed.
Beck grinned. "Good night, Jade." Jade raised an eyebrow and left, leaving Beck to mull over Jade's visit. Then he remembered.
Just because Beck had a chance to be a movie, it didn't mean that he didn't need his beauty sleep. After all, who doesn't?
...
Across town, Tori couldn't sleep. Beck was going to be a movie star. Beck was going to be a movie star. Then a new thought entered her head.
Tori jumped out of her bed. She looked up The Thirst Games on Wikipedia. Blah, blah, blah, little sister Lily-of-the-Valley. Blah, blah, blah, took three years to write. If Tori wanted to know so much, she would have read the book. Ah-ha, movie adaptation. 'In December 2011, the decision was made to make a movie adaptation of the trilogy. Less than a week later, Selena Gomez was offered the role of Dogkiss.'
Selena Gomez. Beck was going to be making out with Selena Gomez. In Australia. And then, with Alyssa Vaughan. In Australia.
Selena Gomez. Alyssa Vaughan. In Australia.
