We weren't in school today, because it was snowing too bad (:D), so I managed to do this and be out all day in the snow. I'm going to Tenerife next week, so I won't be able to update. I'll try and update once more before I go, so be proud of me!
I did this quickly, so sorry if it's not as perfected as the others. The good bit is at the end.
Tori woke up, her heart pounding at a million beats per hour, her whole body slick with a cold, paranoid sweat. She had another nightmare, the second one that night. They all involved strange men raping her just like Derrick had. Then some of them were about André, him hating her and shouting at her. They were the worst, the ones that scared her the most. She was pretty sure she was going insane.
Her mum came in and told her that André had stopped by. She told her that he had admitted his love for her, but she didn't believe her. Her mother was just telling her that to make her feel better. And she could tell André was disgusted with her after he saw her and Derrick, his face said it all.
Apparently, her mother said they should call the police, but Tori didn't want to. She just wanted to wither in her own sorrow.
She didn't go to school the next morning, what was the point? Life wasn't worth living anymore. It must have been past lunch when she heard a soft knock on her door. She was sure her Mum had just left for work, it made her paranoid. She began to shake, what if it was Derrick?
"Tori, are you in there? It's me" A male voice shouted in panic from outside. She didn't need to question who it was, it was André, probably coming to shout at her for shoving Belle. She thought about hiding under the bed, he would never find her, but she couldn't move. It was as if she was paralysed. She stayed silent.
The door creaked open, and Andre's head peered around the door. He walked forward and sat on the edge of Tori's bed. Tori shook, she didn't know what to expect.
"Listen, Tor" André started, staring into Tori's hazel eyes. He didn't get to continue, because Tori started crying. He didn't know what to do at first, she just looked so helpless, and he couldn't help but comfort her.
They lay there, André stroking Tori's hair and cuddling into her while Tori sobbed hysterically. No words needed to be said, it was like they knew exactly what each other's actions meant, how they felt.
"I'm breaking up with Belle" André whispered, after a good ten minutes of comfortable silence. Tori looked up at him, her eyes red and blotchy. She still looked beautiful to him.
"What, why?" Tori tried to hide her excitement.
"Because, I've realised who I really love" He smiled, stroking Tori's hair out of her eyes and peering into them longingly.
"Me too Dré" she smiled too, this simple gesture from André had made her realise that maybe everything was going to be fine, maybe if she had him she could overcome anything, maybe he really did love her. Together, they were unstoppable.
"There's only a place in my heart for you Tori, there are wonders I want you to see. I've never really believed in love before, but when I look at you, I can begin to know, that I love you so" André sang, tickling Tori in the ribs. She giggled slightly. Did she believe him?
André hesitated, how would Tori react if he kissed her? She was still so fragile, so helpless.
Tori gazed up at him. She wanted those lips on hers, despite everything. He made her feel like everything was going to be ok.
André leaned forward regardless and his lips slowly brushed against Tori's. At first he kissed her softly, as if he was asking for her permission. He then kissed her hungrily, he had waited for this for so long, and it felt so right, magical, perfect. Tori seemed to think the same, as she couldn't wipe the smile off her face. Maybe they were right for each other.
He spent another half an hour at Tori's, just talking. Not about Belle, or the previous night, and It wasn't flirty at all. They talked about things that even they didn't know about each other, about when they were younger. They laughed and cried together, mended their relationship with a simple smile.
"I've got to go, I need to talk to Belle" André said, Tori's face fell. "Don't worry sweetie, I'm going to tell her that I think it's better if we're apart" He reassured her.
"Please don't tell her about me, she will make my life even worse than it already is" Tori frowned, as if remembering the true reality of the situation. Maybe this wasn't for the best.
"Don't worry, I won't. I love you, and I'm always here" Tori's heart fluttered, André Harris loved her. Maybe it wasn't going to be that bad. Maybe.
André parked his car at the front of Belle's huge mansion of a house, which he had got lost in numerous times. Thinking about that only brought him bad memories. He felt nervous, incredibly nervous. There was one thing certain, and that was that Belle was not going to take this too well.
He knocked on the front door, and as all lights were off, he wasn't expecting a reply. Belle never answered the front door anyway. His tummy was full of butterflies, he sighed, trying to stay calm.
He walked towards the back of the house when no one answered, the gravel path crunching below his feet, making him feel like an intruder. That seemed so ironic when he thought about it afterwards. At the back of the house was an exterior staircase leading up to Belle's room. She had used it to sneak André up to her 'chambers' once when her parents were being over protective, so he decided to use it anyway.
He clanked up the stairs, trying to figure out what he would say to Belle. Let her down hard? Easy? He honestly didn't know. Even though it was a cold evening, the kind where you can see your breath in front of you, sweat still clung to his body. Maybe he was scared of Belle.
André thought it was weird that Belle's velvety curtains were open, usually one of her little slaves would come in and shut them for her, but when he got closer he realised why.
Derrick was in Belle's room with her, and guess what they were doing? Some inappropriate M rated things, naked, on Belle's huge bed. André almost fell down the stairs in shock. What the hell! Yeah, he supposed he'd kind of cheated on Belle with Tori, BUT this was going too far! What was wrong with her?!
He was angry, he suddenly realised how stupid he was to even get with Belle in the first place, how much time he had wasted with her and how much better off he would have been with Tori. He hated her!
He slammed open the door into her bedroom with such force that he knocked down one of pictures on the wall. Belle was shocked, grabbing something to cover her and shoving Derrick off her. She gulped guiltily, racking her brain for any excuses.
"André, I can explain…" She started, looking almost scared.
"No, Belle I think you've done enough" He snapped, shaking his head and steaming with anger. "I came here to try to negotiate with you, to talk about our relationship and see if we could save it" He explained, screaming at the top of his voice.
"We can…" She whispered guiltily.
"It's over ok?" He screamed.
"This was just…" Belle said, a silent tear falling down her face. Knowing Belle, it was probably fake.
"Tori is right, you're horrible" He hoped it hurt, Belle gulped, a flicker of anger igniting her blue eyes.
"Oh, so this it's what it was about? Derrick and I knew you liked her from the beginning!" Belle was shouting now too. This wasn't true, was it?
"Derrick can get off my girlfriend!" André said stepping towards the bastard who was smirking as if it was a joke. "Is it funny? Huh?" he threatened, edging closer towards Derrick, who still had a huge black eye from where André punched him yesterday. He had seen Derrick nude too many times in 24 hours.
"Yes, HAHA" Derrick joked, smirking. He thought he was so big and clever, it made André want to kill someone, literally. "Come on Belle, kick this jerk out so we can continue where we left off" He winked to Belle, who stayed silent.
"I said STAY AWAY FROM MY GIRLFRIEND" André screamed, running towards Derrick and punching him square In the face, again.
"Gay" Derrick whimpered, trying too contain his coolness. He soon regretted what he had just said.
"What was that?!" André snarled, pinning him down and hitting him until his hands were covered in blood. What was he doing? He could get put in prison for this! He couldn't stop himself; it was like he thought that someone needed to pay.
"What the fuck are you doing, get off him!" Belle screamed, grabbing André's arm and trying to pull him off. He slapped her away, Belle screeched. He was a monster, a murderer if he didn't stop.
"Please, stop… I…I'm so…. Sorry" Derrick gasped in between breaths, André didn't listen. He was going to kill him. Yeah, he had come to break up with Belle, but seeing her with someone else made him jealous. Maybe it was just because everything was overwhelming, he didn't know. He wasn't thinking straight.
Belle grabbed her phone, punching in the numbers for 999. She was so stupid! Why had she done this to André? He was going insane!
It was at that moment that Belle's darling father walked in, saw his daughter naked, which was nowhere near as bigger shock as seeing André beating some strange boy to a pulp on the floor.
The police came next, dragged a screaming and crying André away in handcuffs. Why had he reacted that way? He didn't still love Belle, did he? This was the worst thing he had ever done, this would ruin his life.
He had just gone and made Tori's life ten times worse, but he couldn't think of this now. All he could think about was how he was such a monster.
Sorry it's crap:( I just wanted to update! So, André in jail? You surprised? How did you like the Tandre, finally? Please review? Get me to twenty? Love you all xx
