Seeing Tori look so weak and vulnerable had caused me levels of pain I had never before experienced; but it had also made me determined to be stronger. I know that everyone sees me as the 'strong' one already, but I vowed to myself that from here on I am going to be her rock and I will never let anyone bring her down. When I get my hands on Beck he is going to wish Andre's punch had left him in a coma. If given the chance I would cut off his 'oh so precious' hair but I can also think of many other places upon his body that I would love for my scissors to meet.

Staring blankly into space I pour myself another cup of coffee, I must have had at least four since I left Tori to sleep. Glancing at the clock I notice that it is fast approaching six o'clock and can't help but wonder where the fuck her parents are. I would question Trina's absence but I am assuming she is with Beck. This concept causes me to once again become slightly overwhelmed by anger; my fist makes contact with the kitchen table as a furious grunt escapes my lips. I would like to believe that if she knew how he had acted towards Tori earlier then she wouldn't be with him. Exhaling deeply I attempt to clam myself before pushing backwards off of the chair and heading upstairs to check on Tori.

Perching on the edge of her bed I smile down at her, asleep she looks angelic; flawless. I lean across to stroke a strand of chestnut hair off of her face, caressing her perfect cheekbones as I do so.

"What on earth did I ever do to deserve someone as breathtakingly beautiful as you Vega?" I mutter whilst staring adoringly down at her.

She reacts slightly to the sound of my voice; rolling slightly, moving her face further towards my hand which had previously been lying delicately upon her jaw. I lean down and place a soft whisper of a kiss upon her lips before pulling backwards. But little do I know I have woken her and as I pull away she pushes back into me; causing us to share a kiss which is far more passionate than I had anticipated. Eventually we pull away breathless, I notice a small blob of my saliva stuck to her lip; but she darts her tongue out and licks it away.

"Do you feel any better babe?" I enquire once I have regained my breath.

But as she opens her mouth to respond a loud crash from downstairs interrupts us. Silence falls upon us and we exchange questioning looks as further noises of disruption continue sound. Who on earth would need to make that much noise?

"Who else is here Jade?" Tori questions.

"N-no one" I respond, before adding "unless they just got here."

Loud thumping can be heard as whoever is causing the noise begins to climb the stairs. Tori gulps nervously; it's clear that she is still pretty shaken up from the earlier events. I climb to my feet and step towards the door, as she remains sat bolt upright in her bed. I take a further step towards her bedroom door my hand outreached ready to open it and confront whoever I find. But before I reach it, the door swings open.

"Tori! Why are you in bed?" the irritating and shrill voice of Trina Vega echo's slicing through the tense silence which had previously filled the room. Her eyes then fall upon me, "Oh god I haven't walked in on you two- err well you know what I mean, have I?" she groans causing Tori's cheeks to flush scarlet.

"No you haven't. And since when do you know about us?" I ask, my voice cold.

"Good, and I figured it out this morning." She states walking past me. Despite her usual loud manner I could swear that her eyes were hiding a sadness which I had become accustomed to associating with Tori.

"What do you want Trina?" Tori groans, causing a smile to crease upon my lips; I really do enjoy it when people take this tone with Trina.

"I-I'm really sorry Tori. I didn't mean to, it just slipped, I am so, so sorry!" Trina bursts in a rush, causing both Tori and myself to screw our faces in confusion as we attempt to process the blur of words.

"Why are you sorry?" Tori asks evenly.

"Yer, what 'just slipped?'" I voice in a slightly more aggressive tone.

"Well I was with Beck earlier and we were fooling around and talking when he asked me what happened with us in the car park earlier. I told him about our parents, and that you had given me a lecture so I had reminded you of your own experiences." She pauses her voice is shaking and she locks eyes with Tori, if I didn't know better I would say she was on the verge of tears. "And then it just tumbled out, I wasn't even thinking! You know how I am Tori; sure I am an amazingly talented performer but I'm not overly clever! My mouth tends to say things without my brains permission! But you have to believe me Tor, I would never do anything to hurt you!"

Confusion is still etched deeply in Tori's brow as she attempts to figure out what her emotional sister is rambling on about. An unsettling feeling wells up in my stomach as I begin to realise what Trina means, but Tori clearly isn't there yet.

"Trina I have no idea what you are on about!" Tori growls, frustration thick on her voice now.

"I told Beck about you and Jade!" the girl bursts before dropping her hair and staring at the floor.

I feel like I have been slapped, sure I had though she was going to say that but hearing her voice it causes the realisation that he knows about us to wash over me. Tori's face has drained of colour and she genuinely looks as if she may be sick. This isn't how either of us wanted it to happen. I know for a fact that Tori wanted to be the one to tell Beck, she wanted to have a chance to explain things to him. What were the chances of that now?
