Tip of the Tongue
"Hey Jade, get ready. I'll be picking you up. We're going out." Beck said over the phone. Jade stopped cleaning around her room and stood up. "What?! Where are we going?" "Out Jade. You've been too bummed and you need a distraction." Jade scoffed at him but started picking out some clothes. "You've been here for almost a week Beck and you still haven't helped me talk to Tori." She grabbed a towel and headed to the shower. She heard Beck sigh over the phone and say, "I know. I've been thinking of ways to get Tori alone. I don't exactly want Cat to see me or she'll flip. Nobody knows I'm back except for you ad Andre." "Okay! Fine! Whatever! I'm going to shower. I'll be ready in an hour." She said and hung up her phone. Jade turned the shower on, stripped off of her clothes, and stepped in the shower. While in the shower, she thought about how she'd tell Tori everything. She had to talk to Tori soon because she didn't know how much time she had left. She had been getting chest pains frequently for the past days but refused to go to the hospital, for fear of getting more bad news. Once she finished washing herself, she quickly put on her underwear and bra and stepped out of the bathroom, and saw Andre in the room.
"Why are you naked?!" He cried out while covering his eyes. Jade only smirked and walked to the bed, where she had her outfit. "Why are you in my room?" She asked in response. "I was gonna come tell you that Beck is here. He said we're going out. Didn't say where though. Just said we were gonna take you out to lighten you up a bit." Jade glared at him as she slipped on her black leggings. "I don't need to lighten up. I need for Tori to hear me out and hopefully she can forgive me." She snapped. Andre walked to the door but stopped before closing it and said, "okay okay, don't hurt me though! Just hurry up." Jade chuckled after he closed the door. She might be dying but despite her condition, Andre was still scared of her. She pulled on her black lace sleeve top followed by a jacket and for shoes, she decided to wear some black platform court shoes. She put light make up and slipped on a studded bracelet ande went down to the living room, where she saw Andre and Beck waiting for her. "So where are we going?" She asked in a bored tone. Beck smiled at her and started walking to the door with the other two following. "We're going to Karaoke Dokie, for old time's sake!" Andre cheered in excitement and Jade half smiled for once in the past days. It was a place they all hadn't gone since they were in high school and it held many great memories for them...
Meanwhile, in Tori and Cat's apartment, Cat was getting ready to go out, for Tori wanted to take her out this time. All the half latina had said was to dress for a casual dinner, nothing to special. Cat decided to wear a silver sequin top with some shorts and black pumps. She put on a few bracelets. Once she was ready, Tori was already calling her. "I'll be down in a minute Tori!" Cat said and rushed to get her purse and walked out the apartment. She locked the door and ran downstairs to see Tori in her car waiting. When she opened the door to the car, Cat's mouth was wide open. "If you keep your mouth open a fly could fly in it you know." Tori giggled. Cat shook her head and smiled as she got in and closed the door to the car. "Wow Tori. You look... Amazing!" Cat exclaimed. Tori smiled and took Cat's hand with her unoccupied hand and kissed it. Tori was wearing a purple Jenny Jersey shirt with black cropped leather jacket. She had on some faded white skinny jeans on with some tall pull up heel boots that were black.
"Where are you plannin to take me?" Cat asked in her usual curious and chipper tone. "Oh, just some place we haven't been in a long while... Karaoke Dokie!" Cat squealed in excitement and squeezed Tori's hand. It had been such a long time since they last went and it was long overdue for them to go back there again. Little did they know, they were in for a big surprise...
As soon as Tori had parked the car, Cat immediately got out and ran into the Karaoke restaurant/bar. Tori walked after her girlfriend with a smile on her face but it soon turned into a confused frown when she saw her red headed girlfriend walking back to her with a worried look on her face. "Cat? What's wrong? Why are you..." Tori stopped talking when she saw over Cat's shoulder, who was sitting at a table: Jade. The tan felt as if her heart had stopped beating and she suddenly felt like she couldn't breathe. Cat saw the look and sighed. "You know... You can go talk to her if you want... I know you do... Or we can leave... I'll be okay with whatever you want to do." Cat said in a light tone. Tori looked back over to Jade, Andre, and someone else who had their back turned to her. She then looked to Cat and only saw two things in her eyes: support and tenderness. 'Should I go talk to Jade? I want to... I need to know why she left... But if I do, I'll hurt Cat. I know she's only saying this for my sake but it'll hurt her... Ok Tori... You can do this... If Jade wants to talk, she can come talk to me... Then Cat would be okay with that... I just hope she does see me though... I really want to set things set things straight.' She thought.
"We can sit somewhere on the other side Cat. I know how much you want to stay. I'll be fine. Don't worry." Tori said with a fake smile. Cat grinned and hopped her way to a nearby table. It wasn't until the person who was sitting with Jade and Andre, did Jade finally see Tori. The half latina then saw who the other person was with them. 'Why is Beck here?! And with Jade and Andre?! Why is Jade near Beck?!' Tori angrily thought. She pushed back her chair and stood up, startling Cat. "What's wrong hun?" Cat asked. Tori managed to catch a glimpse to where Beck was headed: the restrooms. "I'm just going to go to the restroom. Order for us?" Tori asked. Cat nodded and Tori went after Beck, but failed to notice Jade standing up and following her. Before reaching to grab Beck's shoulder, Tori felt someone grab her wrist and pull her into the girl's restroom. This didn't go unnoticed by Cat and soon followed quietly after. Cat stayed outside of the girl's restroom and pressed her ear against the door to hear what was going on inside.
Inside the restroom, both girls were too scared to make a move. 'Great... You pull her in here and now you can't say anything... Nice one West.' Jaade mentally scowled at herself. The silence was soon broken by Tori as she asked in a demanding voice, "why are you with Beck? He hurt you!" Jade took a step back, not expecting that from the half latina. "He came to help me..." Was all Jade could muster. Tori looked at her angrilly and took a step closer to Jade. "Why are you back Jade? Why?!" Tori demanded. Jade stayed quiet, panic hitting her hard. She was too scared to say anything... To move... Tori's fascial expression changed from anger to sorrow. "Why dod you even leave in the first place? I couldn't forget about you... I wouldn't forget you Jay..." Tori whispered. Tori's nickname for her gave Jade the strength to finally move. She slowly stepped close to Tori. When the tan girl didn't move, Jade used that as a sign that it was okay and carefully place her hands to Tori's waist.
"I'm so sorry Tor... I never wanted to hurt you... I just thought... That things weren't going to go right for me... And I didn't want you to hurt much more..." Tori looked at her confused and wiped at her eyes. She then placed her hand around Jade's neck. "What do you mean?" She asked. 'Well, here it goes...' Jade thought. She opened her mouth but when she tried to speak, nothing came out. She tried to force herself to speak but she couldn't. 'Dammit! I can't choke now! I need to tell her!' Tori saw the conflict in Jade's eyes and tightened her grip on Jade. "I... I..." Jade stuttered. "I miss you Jay... I still love you... But I shouldn't..." Tori said. Jade's eyes were beginning to well up in tears She cleared her throught and pulled Tori much more closer, that their bodies were now touching. "I'll always love you Tori... No matter what happens to me, or where I go. I'll always want your happiness." Tori sniffled at Jade's words. "Then be with me... Please..." Jade shook her head and gave her a sorrowful look. "I can't... Besides... You're with Cat... She's good for you..." Tori began crying and shaking her head. She felt as if her heart was breaking over and over again. Jade was feeling heart shatter as well, and was beginning to feel the chest pains coming again, but she did her best to ignore them. Hearing Tori's sobs though only worsened the pain and her breath was necoming shallow, so she did the only thing that came into mind. She crashed her lips with Tori's into a extremely passionate kiss.
Outside of the restrooms, Cat was hearing everything. Her heart breaking at Tori's words. When she heard Tori's crying, anger was beginning to flow into her body. 'Why doesn't Jade just tell her already?! It's tearing Tori apart!' She thought. She was going to walk back to their table but when she heard an unmistakable noise from inside, se stopped. She turned back to the door and stayed quiet. Straining her ears to listen, she heard a moan from inside again. Seeing red, Cat slammed the door open and wished she didn't. Jade had Tori pinned against the wall in a seering kiss. "What is going on in here?!" She yelled out. Jade jumped back and Tori yelped in shock and only kept her gaze at Jade, too scared to look at her girlfriend. "Tori... What..." Tori finally looked at her girlfriend and saw an emotionless face on her. "Cat, I'm soo sorry! I didn't mean for it to happen!" Cat only stayed quiet and it scared the two other girls. "Cat, listen, it wasn't Tori's fault... I-" "Tori, can you please get out? I need to talk to Jade..." Tori glanced at Jade, who gave her a slight nod, and walked out of the restroom, bumping into Beck and Andre.
"Hey Tori, what are you doing here?" Andre asked. Tori stayed looking down and tried to walk past him but was stopped by Beck. She pulled away from him and glared at him. "Why are you here?! You hurt Jade! What are you playing at!?" She almost shouted. "Woah, calm down Tori. Look, I understand you hate me. I know about you and Jade. She told me. Anyways, I came because Andre had asked me to and I apologized and cleared all the bad air between Jade and I. I'm here to help Jade out." "help her in what?!" She snapped. "Well... Help her talk to you..." He said while rubbing the back of his head. "And what is it that she needs to talk about? She still hasn't told me..." Tori finished in a mutter. Andre and Beck shared a look before Beck only said, it's not my place to say..."
Back in the restroom, there was only silence. Jade was too scared to move, a feeling that she had been feeling lately and hated it, and felt an unbearable pain in her chest. Cat, was too angry to even speak. After taking a few breaths and she thought she was okay to speak, she took a step towards Jade. "Why didn't you just tell her now? Why Jade?..." Jade only stayed quiet. "You're hurting each other more. Can't you see you're tearing her apart?!" Jade looked at Cat, and saw sorrow and frustration. "I didn't want to hurt her... I never did... you need to help her move on Cat..." Cat sighed and took another step. "I can't. She still loves you. She always will." "Just try Cat... Who knows how much time I have left. If anyone can make her happy, it's you Cat..." Cat scoffed and took one more step. "Jade, she doesn't love me. She loves you!" Jade took a long breath to try to ease the pain in her chest and looked up to the ceiling lights. "She can learn to love you over the time." Cat shakes her head and throws her arms up. "What don't you get?! She will always love you! You're it for her Jade! She'll always want you! If you weren't in this situation, you two would still be together! Even now, she would choose you!" Jade sighed and looked back to Cat with a fire in her eyes. "It doesn't fucking matter Cat! You want to know why?! Wait, that's right. You already know why! My heart is fucking failing! I'm fucking dying Cat! That's why I can't be with her! I'll only hurt her more!" Cat flinched at Jade's tone and took a step back.
"It doesn't fucking matter Cat! You wNt to know why?! Wait, that's right. You already know why! My heart is fucking failing! I'm fucking dying Cat! That's why I can't be with her!" Was all Tori heard afterwards from outside the restroom. Andre and Beck both grew worried at what just happened and Beck quickly decided to go in and stop whatever argument was going on in the restroom before something worse happened. Tori's mind raced through many things while Andre pulled her out of the place. "Tori?" Andre hesitantly asked. 'She's dying... That's why she left?! Why didn't she tell me!?' Too distraught to think, Tori pushed away from Andre and began walking to her car. 'What's worse is that Cat knew! She didn't even tell me! How long had she known?! Does everyone else know?! Is that why Trina wanted me to talk to Jade?! But Jade can't be dying! She just can't!' "Tori!" Andre yelled after her.
Once she reached her car, Tori fought with the key and her door as she struggled to open it. Everything hittin her all at once, she began to feel dizzy and dropped to her knees. Andre quickly ran after her and helped her back up. He pulled her in for a hug but she tried to push him away and hit at his chest. She struggled for a while until she started hearing a guitar from behind playing. She stopped fighting and crying to look up and saw Jade playing a guitar. Beck was holding on to Cat, who was crying as well. Tori, with tears in her eyes, looked back to Jade. The black haired girl stopped playing the guitar to say, "Just let me sing this to you... please..." She went back to playing when Tori slightly nodded.
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go?
So why don't we go?
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?
Jade finished with tears now in her eyes. "If you still want to talk, you know where to find me Tor... You do remember the place right?" Tori nodded and wiped at her nose. "Good... I'll be there tonight... If you don't come, I'll understand. I know I hurt you... Just... please come..." With that, Beck let go of Cat and went to Jade's side because he could see the pain in her face. They got into his car and left. After a while, Cat walked up to Tori and Andre. "Do you want us to take you?" Was all Cat asked.
