Hey guys! :D Here`s the next chapter. Finally ;)
Merry Christmas to all of you :D

If you have any wishes or thoughts on a scene that I could add to the story, just let me know. :)

Viel Spaß beim Lesen, eure Just! :D

"So you two are together now? I mean for real?" Jade asked and couldn`t suppress a small smile.

"Yup." Cat said and kissed me again. I just grinned and said nothing.

"Well I`m happy for you." You could see that she meant it. "But don`t go around acting all fluffy and amorous or something. I would have to kill you." Now that sounded a lot more like Jade.

Cat and me decided to tell the others during lunch and Jade thought about bringing a camera to take a picture of Robbie`s face. She was confident that Robbie was going to cry, now that he had to admit he had no chance at becoming Cat`s boyfriend. I would pity him, but it was Cat who we were talking about and I definitely didn`t want her to become Robbie`s girlfriend. Hell no, I didn`t.

"And please do not make out in front of the boys! They are just going to drool all over you." Jade made a disgusted face. I had to laugh hard about the picture that was coming into my head. Cat just giggled.

"I`m going to grab a coffee. I would ask you to come with me, but I think you would rather have your alone time." Jade winked and left the classroom.

The second Jade had left the room Cat jumped into my arms and said: "She`s right. I`d rather have you for my own." I giggled and kissed her.

When we were running out of breath Cat led go of me and smiled. I wished we could just go home again and cuddle in my bed. It would be so much better than sitting in class, where we were not allowed to do anything. Kissing was actually forbidden in school. Don`t ask me why, but it is in the house regulatory. How stupid was this? It`s a school...with teenagers...hormone crazy teenagers.

"Oh I almost forgot something!" Cat had a huge smile on her face when she took out a small box and handed it to me. "Open it."

Not wanting to make her wait I opened the little present. In the box was the loveliest golden bracelet I had ever seen. It consisted of tiny rings that were intertwined with each other and one ruby heart which reflected the light and made it sparkle. Engraved in the heart were our names.

I stared at the piece of jewelry. "Oh my gosh... Cat." I had to keep myself from crying.

"What you don`t like it?" She asked insecure.

"Are you kidding me? Cat, this is so beautiful. I love it!" I kissed her quickly and hugged her tightly. "And I love you."

"I know. I love you too and I am glad you like it." She smiled.

Lunch started in 5 minutes. Cat and I were sitting in math class and looked at the clock every 3 seconds. I could tell that she was nervous and who am I kidding, I was nervous too. I didn`t really think that one of our friends could react badly to what we had to tell them, but you could never know about such things. Maybe they thought it wasn`t normal or something.

When the bell rang Cat squeezed my hand which she had been holding onto for the last half an hour.

"Calm down. They are going to understand. They are our friends, they have to." I tried to convince her... and myself.

Our friends were already sitting at our usual table when we got there. Jade gave us a smile, which made Beck raise an eyebrow.

Cat and me sat down on the opposite of Beck, Andrè and Robbie (well and Rex). The boys were all deep in conversation until Jade cleared her throat.

"Cat and I have to tell you something." I started "Please hear us out." I looked at Cat and she nodded.

"You might have noticed that my behavior around Cat has changed a little in the last few weeks." The boys nodded. "Well that kind of didn`t happen without reason..." I said and suppressed a smile.

"I like Tori!" Cat shouted.

The boys only laughed and Andrè said: "Well of course you do, she`s your best friend. It would be weird if you didn`t like her."

"Cat is not just my best friend anymore." I stated. Now there were just questioning looks on all faces, except for Beck. I wondered why that was...

I could see Jade prepare to take a picture of Robbie`s face when I started my next sentence: "Cat and I are dating. She`s my girlfriend and I love her."

Andrè`s chin dropped and you could really see that he didn`t expect that. Robbie`s expression was somehow really different, but he didn`t cry. Beck was just Beck. He smiled at us and said: "That was about time, don`t you think?"

That even surprised Jade, cause she asked him: "Since when did you know that?!"

"Cat was pretty obvious since day one and I figured Tori would fall in love with her sooner or later." He explained with a shrug of his shoulders.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait." Andrè stuttered. "I thought you were straight." His question was directed at me, but Cat answered.

"A lot of girls are straight until they are not" She told him and I giggled.

"I couldn`t phrase it any better." I gave her a kiss on her cheek.

"Stop staring at them like that you weirdo!" Jade suddenly screamed at Robbie.

"What? I didn`t do anything!" He shouted blushing. I looked at him and realized what Jade meant with "like that".

"Robbie!" I shrieked. "You`re so gross!" I only kissed her on the cheek and he starts to fantasize?!

Cat looked confused: "What did he do?"

"Trust me, you don`t want to know." I told her, gave Robbie an angry stare and took a deep breath. "So I can see that Robbie is more than okay with it. And Beck knew it all along." I gave him a smile. "Andrè?"

"As long as you two are happy, I`m happy." He stated simply.

"Great!" I called out and Cat cheered like a little kid, which was super cute by the way. I would have kissed her, but I didn`t want to do it in front of Robbie, so I just squeezed her hand lightly.

"Hey that explains why Jade is suddenly so nice to Tori!" Andrè pointed out.

"Oh shut up. I`m not nice to her." Jade said, but gave me a wink. It seemed like everything was okay. I had to admit that I was almost happy. It was great that all of our friends reacted this way, but we still had to tell our parents.

Cat looked me in the eyes and she knew that there was something wrong. I just shook my head and made her know that I would tell her later. She gave me a peck on the lips and leaned against me while our friends kept teasing Jade about her being nice to me. I smiled. Yup, we could take care of the rest later.

Hope you liked it :)
Merry Christmas again and stay well ;*
