Author Notes: I'm not even sure if any of you guys are surprised by this, I keep saying I'm done with this fic but lo and behold another idea pops up, this one because of what an interesting day today is, I'm putting two "holidays" in one fic, one of them is "Taco Tuesday" and the other… Well you'll have to wait and find out as Tori will explain it.
Truth be told, this idea was partly inspired because like Tori, I'm kind of a dork, heh.
So read and enjoy, XD.
"I bet you can't tell what today is?" Tori asked cheerfully, "Can you… Can you… Can you?"
"Vega, let me enjoy our meal in peace." Jade grunted. "If I wanted to spend the day with a hyperactive woman, I would have gone to lunch with Cat over at the Krazy Taco."
"That restaurant is a rip off and would never compete with real Mexican food." Tori said with a huff. "Not to mention if you had gone to that cheap restaurant then you wouldn't be having my world famous Bistec Tacos!"
"True but I also would've been able to have a quiet meal." She said, taking a bite out of her food for emphasis. "So enough with the mystery already and tell me what is so damn important about today!"
Her wife only kept smiling goofily, Jade knew that dorky smile, Tori saved it only when she came across something she found very interesting and was excitedly waiting for the right moment so she could share it.
… And seeing as they were married, Jade also knew she was going to be the first to discover what made her dorky spouse as excited as Cat in a candy store she no longer was allowed in.
"Nope." Tori replied coyly. "Come on Jade, you're the smartest woman I know, surely you can figure it out."
"Flatter me all you want Vega, I'm still not playing this game."
"Because you don't know the answer, do you?" Tori asked with a smug smile. "No shame in admitting defeat, baby."
"Wife that smile off your face before I shove this taco where the sun doesn't shine."
"I'm waiting for an answer."
The pale woman chewed slowly on her taco Tori had made, it wasn't a big surprise seeing what day of the week it was, which of course meant the not so clever clue that was given to her, Jade was sure she already knew the answer but wasn't about to tell her spouse just yet.
After all, it was quite enjoyable getting under her skin.
"Let me think… Let me think." Jade pretended to ponder. "It can't be our anniversary, that's until next month… Your birthday was a few days ago and so was Valentine's Day, so it has to be something boring and meaningless."
"Ok now you're just being a gank."
"Proudly so, Vega." Jade replied with a smirk. "But if you still want me to tell you my answer, then you shouldn't have given me a glaringly obvious clue." The Thespian then grabbed another taco, raising an eyebrow and with an unimpressed looked said. "I mean really? A taco and since today is the second day of the week, the lo and behold, Taco Tuesday! Not very clever on your part Tor."
In response, the Latina simply grinned, this of course took Jade by surprise.
"What the Hell?" Jade thought with narrowed eyes. "What are you playing at Vega?"
"You're partly right West." Tori said happily, "Today is Taco Tuesday, yum yum but I also knew you wouldn't be able to get the full answer but if you had paid for attention to your meal, there's a chance you could get a very interesting fact about today."
"When the Hell did I marry the riddler." Jade snapped. "There is nothing else about the tacos you gave me Vega!"
"Are you sure about that?"
Jade frowned, looking at the two tacos on her plate, one half eaten and the other full, she also noticed her wife had two tacos… Before she ate them.
"Ah look, we have two plates, two napkins and lookie we're two happily married women who love each other on the second month of the year."
"Ok, I keep hearing the number two over and over." Jade grunted. "But if you don't stop it, you're going to have two very red butt cheeks!"
"Oh is Jadey getting angry?" Tori asked tauntingly. "Is Jadey going to spank me?"
"I'm going to kill you if you don't shut up and let me think!" Jade snarled before she began to tear her tacos apart, hoping to find another clue that would make her wife's cheerful smile disappear.
"Jade, don't play with your food."
"Bite me, Vega!"
"This isn't what I was hoping for when I told you we were going to have Tacos on Two's Day." Tori chortled at her on pun. "Just the two of us."
"Stop saying two, Vega!" Jade screams. "I don't need you to spell things out for me, I can figure it out!"
"I'm sure you can baby." Tori said, giving her wife a peck on the cheek. "I just wanted us to have a little fun, please don't lose your head over it."
"Don't worry about me Vega." Jade snorted. "I'll know the answer soon enough, in like ten, twenty minutes tops!"
Two hours Later.
"VEGA!"
Tori looked up from her game of solitaire into the eyes of her wife, one which was twitching uncontrollably.
"Yeah, Jade?" She asked. "Have you figured out what day today is?"
"It's the day I'm going to file for divorce if you don't tell me the fucking answer!" Jade bellowed madly. "What's so special about a damn Tuesday?!"
"I thought you were smart enough to figure it out." Tori commented without missing a beat. "You are the great Jade West after all."
"I'm serious about the divorce if you don't tell me, now spill!"
"Geez, touchy!"
"VEGA!"
"Ok, ok." The Latina snickered. "The reason why this Tuesday is so special is because… Well… Look over at the date."
"Why the Hell…?"
"You want the answer or not?"
Jade grumbled as she got her phone out of her pocket, looking over at the date which was 2/2/22.
"All I see is a bunch of two's!" The former Goth snarled. "What the fuck is special about that?!"
"Ah see Jade, don't you see?" Tori asked oblivious to the danger. "What's so cool about this is that today's date is both an ambigram and a palindrome!"
"Say what now?"
"It means that all those two's can be read the same upside down and in both directions." Tori explained. "And not only that, the date falls on a Tuesday, the second day of the week! How cool is that? So Happy Two's Day because it's also a fun coincidence that we also had Tacos today!"
Jade's breath slowly became more and more agitated as she finally exploded with rage.
"THAT'S WHAT WAS SO FUCKING SPECIAL ABOUT TODAY?!"
"Umm… Yes?" Tori replied meekly, slowly dawning on her the danger she was in. "Don't you see how rare an opportunity that is? The next time that happens will be in like a hundred or so years from now."
"We'll be dead by that time Vega! Who cares?!" Jade snarled. "I just wasted two hours trying to figure out your little game! Ugh, you are such a dork!"
"You knew that when you married me!"
"Which is why I'm only going to spank your ass till you're unable to seat for two years!" Jade said evilly. "See, can be clever with the number two as well!"
"Should I start running?"
"What do you think?!"The Thespian hissed. "You got two seconds… One… RUN!"
"That's the last time I toy around with Jade's ego." Tori thought as she ran for her life. "That's like waking up an angry shark… In retrospect not the best idea."
That's a wrap, truth be told this idea was partly inspired on myself since I found it interesting that today's date was a palindrome and since Tori is also kind of a dork,I also thought she would find such a thing fascinating.
Also since this technically counts as "two holidays" I felt it would fit with this saga and didn't want to post it as a one-shot.
And on a final note, since the date has a bunch of two's I found it fitting this is chapter twenty two, XD.
I'm no longer going to say this is the final chapter because honestly, at this point I don't even know.
Anyway, what did you guys thought of this idea?
