"Do you have everything ready for tonight?" Tori asked, looking at Andre.
"Yeah I think so. All I have to do is give Robbie the sheet music so he knows which chords to play." Andre replied.
It was Friday morning and the group of friends was surrounding the vending machine in the main hallway where Tori was grabbing a morning snack. Helen had decided to push auditions up to the end of March, so that way all participants could have enough practice time before the event in April. The only thing was that the end of March was in two weeks and they had yet to even start practicing. They had only gotten the news on Monday, so they didn't have a lot of time, but they were willing to rise to the challenge.
"Jade, you got the lyrics I emailed you, right?" Tori questioned as she entered her dollar into the machine.
Tori waited for a reply, but when she looked up, Jade and Beck were having a quiet intimate moment at the edge of nearby lockers. They were nuzzling up to each other and Beck was whispering things into Jade's ear, which she must have found amusing, because she was giggling as if she were Cat.
"Uh, Jade? Jade!" Tori yelled, grabbing Jade's attention.
"WHAT?!" Jade screamed back, looking up from what she and Beck were doing.
"Did you get the lyrics I emailed you?" Tori repeated.
"Yeah, but I don't see why you sent them to me. I think we all know the lyrics to that stupid song by now." Jade snapped as she and Beck walked over to join the rest of their friends.
"Well, we're changing the tempo a little bit and adding Robbie's guitar part, so I wanted
to make sure you and Cat knew what to expect." Tori defended.
"Wait, so we're not singing Make It Shine?" Cat asked, very confused.
"We are. We're just formatting it to fit all of our different tones, so it'll just be a little different than the original." Andre explained to the ditzy red head.
"What time should we be at your house?" Robbie asked.
"We'll talk about it at lunch. How about we go get sushi at Nozu?" Tori suggested just as the bell rang for first period to begin.
They all agreed and continued about their day. Sikowitz's class was anything but ordinary—as usual—and the rest of their classes leading up to lunch seemed to fly by. The closer they got to graduation, the simpler school seemed to be. Most of their teachers were starting to explain end of the year projects and giving them less and less homework assignments.
When lunch hour finally began, they all met in the main hallway to head over to Nozu to satisfy their hunger. Once they arrived, they were seated and looked through their menus to decide what they wanted to eat.
"So I was thinking you guys could come over at like six so we can order some pizza and get started right away, if that's alright with all of you." Tori announced once they all ordered.
"Yeah that sounds good." Andre agreed.
After getting everyone else's approval, their sushi was brought out and they continued to enjoy their lunch before it was time to head back to campus for the rest of their school day. When they exited their last classes of the day, they went to their individual lockers and collected all the necessary items out of it. Once he was done, Beck met Jade at her locker.
"Hey, so I have to run some errands before heading over to Tori's, so do you mind if I just meet you there?" Beck asked cautiously, knowing his sudden change of plans would most likely bother her.
"Ugh, are you serious? The sun doesn't set until at least 6:30 and you know I hate driving during the day!" Jade complained.
"I know, I'm sorry, I just really have to go do these errands before tomorrow morning." Beck continued.
"Why can't they be done later than tomorrow morning?" Jade questioned accusingly.
"Because I uh—I need milk and cereal for breakfast." Beck stuttered.
"Yeah, right. Whatever. Do what you want. I'll meet you at Tori's house, I guess." Jade grunted.
…
Jade pulled into the Vega's driveway, still annoyed that she had to drive herself instead of Beck picking her up like they originally planned. When she looked up from where she was parking, she saw that Beck's car was already in the driveway. She thought she would for sure be either the first person to arrive because of how little traffic there was, especially for a Friday evening in Los Angeles. If there was going to be someone already at Tori's house, she would've guessed it be Andre, not Beck. She quickly turned off her car and stormed up to the front door. She pounded her fist against the door prompting Tori to open it, revealing that Beck was indeed inside, relaxing comfortably on the bright red couches in the middle of the living room. Jade brushed past Tori and headed straight over to Beck.
"I thought you had errands to do before this, so you were going to be late. Isn't that why you couldn't pick me up!? Isn't that why I was forced to drive in the daylight?!" Jade snapped.
"Okay, first of all, I never said I was going to be late. I finished my errands earlier than expected and there was hardly any traffic, so getting here was a breeze. So you don't have to come in here screaming. Second, I was going to drive to your house once I realized how early I was, but I figured you would probably be on your way already, so I just continued to pull into the driveway." Beck explained.
"Really?" Jade asked, ashamed of ever thinking of accusing Beck of anything after the incredible weekend they had spent together just a week ago.
"Really. Now come on, watch Celebrities Underwater with me." Beck consoled.
"Fine, but I hate this show." Jade agreed, then joined her boyfriend on the couch and rested her legs across his where their hands met and he began to twirl his fingers on her palms.
Everyone else eventually joined them and Andre passed out the sheet music after having some pizza. They fit Robbie's guitar bit into the song and they all practiced their individual parts after finding the proper piece in the music. Their voices blended flawlessly, and when they had finally decided they had made enough progress on the song, they set up some more practice dates and said their goodbyes. Beck and Jade were the last to leave. They may have exited the house first, but they stayed outside talking for a while.
"So what do you say? Come back to my RV?" Beck winked.
"But my dad will be seriously chizzed off if I don't come home when I said I would." Jade worried.
"Just text him and tell him we're still practicing. Please…" Beck begged, grabbing both of her wrists gently.
"Fine." Jade agreed with a grin, pulling out her phone to lie to her father.
She was in the middle of her text when Beck pulled her in for a kiss. She couldn't help but interrupt the kiss with a smile. She always loved his kisses, but when they were spontaneous, they made her weak in the knees.
"I'm going to head over to the RV. I have to clean up a bit before we even attempt to do anything in there. Meet you there?" Beck started.
"Yeah, sure. I'll be right there." Jade replied, putting her phone in her pocket and proceeding to her car.
Even though her father had sent her an angry text back, demanding her to get home, Jade paid no attention to it. She had always known that he hated her and her love for the arts, so the fact that he did not want her to be out 'practicing' was not out of the ordinary. She pretty much did what she wanted anyway, so she continued to Beck's RV without a worry in her mind. Just knowing she was going to have a great time with the love of her life, wiped her dad—and everything else—out of her thoughts.
Beck let her in once she knocked on his steel door and greeted her with a small peck. As usual, the peck got things way more heated and eventually, the couple ended up on Beck's tiny bed. Even though no bed would ever compare to the one they had been with each other in last weekend, they were just glad to be together. That is when they were happiest. It was getting pretty late, but the night felt so young to the two lovers. Nothing else in the world mattered more to them than nights spent like this one. As long as one had the other, no dumb little argument or Jade's suspicions could ever get in the way for the love they shared.
Author's Note: Sorry if this chapter seemed a little pointless. I have been very sick this past week and with that, writing this chapter, and school, I was pretty sure I was going to die lol. Anyway, let me know if you guys would like to see or hear more about any specific characters. I'd love to make this a more enjoyable experience for you all! Again, I know where I'm going with this story, so I don't need plots, just if you'd like a chapter about a pairing other than Bade(even though it is a Bade story), let me know! Please keep reviewing and have a wonderful week(:
