Hey Hey, guys! So, here's the next installment of Crushed. FINALLY! Sorry for the wait, I had to think about how I wanted Jade to ask Tori out and there were so many ways but after I talked to my Art and Calligraphy teacher, this one won out.

All night, I stayed up working out how to pull off my plan. I couldn't fall asleep until I worked out an outline to how I'm gonna ask Tori out on Wednesday. First, I'm gonna-you know what? I'll keep it a surprise.

It's Tuesday now and I'm standing at my locker, checking the list of stuff I need to make sure I didn't forget anything.

'Hey, you.' A female voice says behind me, making me shut my notebook and spin around.

'Hey, Tori!' I put my notebook in my backpack and close my locker.

'What were you writing?'

'Nothing, just a list of things I need to get after school.'

'Alright.' Tori smiles and I sigh a little in relief when she doesn't ask anything else.

After school, Trina takes Tori home and I head off on my little scavenger hunt for supplies. I look down at my notebook with the list. Okay, first on the list: Black Sharpies. Second: White Cardboard. Third: Glue. Fourth: Small Round Magnets. After almost an hour of getting everything, I head home and begin my project. Damn...I must really love this girl. It takes me hours...HOURS of non-stop focus to do what I have planned and by the time I get to sleep, it's well past midnight.

I wake up at the usual time and throw on an outfit similar to Monday's, only without the flannel and with an All Time Low t-shirt with electric blue extensions in my hair. I put my little project in my backpack and run out the door, eager to get to school. When I get there, I'm anxious for lunch. I know that Tori only visits her locker three times during the school day: once before school starts, once before going to lunch, and once after school lets out. So I'll sneak into her locker after lunch and put her surprise in it, then wait for her to see it after school.

The day goes on and it's finally lunch. Tori's finishing with her locker when I walk up to her. 'Ready?' She asks.

'Yeah, just gotta stop at my locker. Meet you out there?'

'Yeah, I'll save you a seat.' She smiles at me and walks off.

I wait for her to disappear and then open her locker (Yes, we know each other's locker combinations). Arranging everything as I see fit, I look it over one last time before closing her locker and heading out to join the others.

Taking my seat beside Tori, I open my burrito and start eating. 'That took a while. I thought you just had to stop at your locker.' Tori whispers so only I hear her.

'I had one other thing I had to do.' I whisper back, taking a bite of my burrito.

'Oh? What else did you have to do?'

'You'll see.' I smirk at her and leave it at that.

After lunch, we go to our classes and I have to say, it's all boring as hell. Nothing happened. Nothing. Nada. Zip...You get the picture.

After school, I go to my locker and am very thankful that she hasn't gotten out of class yet. I wait for a bit and she makes her way to her locker five minutes later. When she opens it, the expression on her face is so priceless, I have to take a picture.

(A/N: Before you read past this point, look up Zentangle Art if you don't know what it is already.)

So, what I did was, I cute the white cardboard into letters to spell out WILL YOU GO OUT WITH ME? in big letters. Then, I drew zentangles on each letter, careful not to use the same design twice. Under the big letters, I taped a letter written in flawless calligraphy that read:

Tori,

You're the best thing to happen to me in I don't know how long. I seriously can't imagine my life without you. You make me smile when I hate the world. I'm at my best when I'm with you. You're my other half. So...will you give me a chance?

~Jade

I see that she's finished reading the letter so I walk up to her. 'So how about it, Vega?' I haven't called her Vega since the day we met.

She turns around, kind of surprised but she quickly gives me a smirk. 'You went through all this trouble, it's the least I can do.'

I scoff. 'Yeah, like you don't actually want to go out with me. Friday sound good?'

She nods and kisses my cheek. 'Can you take me home? Trina's chasing Beck and she told me to ask you.'

'Yeah, of course.' I tell her.

We go to my car and talk about random things on the way to her house. She gives me another kiss on the cheek once we get there before getting out and going inside. I spend the rest of the ride home thinking of what to do for our Friday date, but I keep drawing blanks. I sigh and know what I have to do now. I have to ask Trina for help. Great.

Jade asking Trina for help? Never thought I'd see the day haha. So what did you guys think of how Jade asked Tori out? I'm a sucker for romance, so...this happened haha.

So, question time. How would you wanna be asked out if you had a say in it? Or how would you ask someone out if you had the chance? I'd probably wanna be asked out creatively like Jade asked Tori out. Romantic gestures go a long way with me. So, until next time sweethearts!
