"Keep Secrets With You"

Two weeks have passed since Tori learned of Jade's secret. With Tori's parents planning a trip, this leaves the girls with the house to themselves. Tori is excited to have some alone time with Jade, while keeping things on the down low, of course.

At the Vega house, David and Holly are loading their bags into the car preparing to take one of their annual trips to Santa Barbara. They will be gone for three days, and the girls are looking forward to having the house to themselves. Tori for one is grateful to get to spend this weekend with her girlfriend, and not taking care of Trina like the last time her parents went away. While Holly is still outside, David is in the kitchen with the girls, reminding them of the rules.

"Okay, so your mother and I will be back Sunday afternoon. I expect you two will have a few friends over, but absolutely no parties. I don't need another incident like the one where that boy was throwing up in our pool." David told them.

"That was Tori's friend, not mine. Her friend, Robbie, was throwing up after he ate the brownies she made."

"I didn't know he ate as many as he did. Anyway, you don't have to worry about a party. I just want to spend some time with Jade." Tori said.

"Well, you girls enjoy your weekend, and you can call us if there's an emergency."

Both girls nodded an 'okay' to their dad as he made his way out with the last bag.

"Please, try to call only if it's a real emergency." David urged them.

"Not to worry about us, Dad. You and Mom enjoy your trip." Tori said.

David and Holly said their goodbyes to the girls, and as they were pulling away, Trina hopped up and down excitedly, running upstairs to make some phone calls. Tori followed close behind, calling up the stairs to her sister.

"Trina, Mom and Dad said no parties!"

"Relax! I'm just confirming my plans for tonight!" Trina called back.

Tori nodded, heading up to get ready herself.

Later that evening, Tori is stepping out of the shower, and is getting herself ready to go out with Jade. Her hair is just about dry, and she's slipped into a pair of ripped jeans while looking through her drawers for the light pink bra she wanted to wear with a shirt of the same color. Tori kept looking, but she couldn't find it anywhere, nor could she find at least three or four of her bras. She went down the hall, and into the laundry room to see if they might still be dirty, but they were still nowhere to be found. As Tori was passing Trina's room, she could see from the mirror that the bra she was looking for was currently on her sister. Tori stood there opening and closing her mouth for a moment, before stepping inside the door.

"Trina, have you been borrowing my bras?" Tori asked.

"What, you mean this one?"

"Yeah, why do you need my bras? You're bigger than me."

"I know. Wearing one of your bras makes me look more ample." Trina explained.

"Wha–" Tori shook her head. "What do you need to look more ample for?"

Trina slips on her knee length, pink dress, showing her final look to Tori, with her cleavage proudly showing over the neckline.

"To fill out this dress. My bras won't work for that; not like yours do."

"Well, Trina, I did want to wear that one tonight. I'm trying to get ready for a date."

"Don't you have another one?" Trina asked, while fixing her hair in the mirror.

"I do, but…" Tori sighed, standing next to Trina to face her. "What's this obsession wanting more cleavage all of the sudden?"

"Listen, you may be spoken for, but I'm still looking for someone. Once the guys get a load of these, a hot date will come right to me."

Tori just shook her head, and thought about how she should know better than to question the things Trina does. Trina continued to adjust her outfit, and apply her makeup, while Tori gave up on the bra issue for now, and continued to get ready for her date with Jade.

Tori came downstairs finally dressed, making the best of her bra situation, and is excited for the evening she has planned. She goes to answer the doorbell, seeing Jade standing there in her black lace dress, with her hair tousled around her shoulders. Tori smiled, greeting Jade with a kiss before welcoming her inside.

"You look beautiful." Tori said.

"Thanks, so do you."

Tori laughed, smoothing out her shirt. "Thanks, I still managed to get myself together, even with Trina, uhm…"

Tori paused, unsure if she should continue. Jade looked at her in confusion.

"What about Trina?"

"Just Trina being Trina. I'll explain it to you later." Tori said, and Jade nodded.

The two of them get in Jade's car, and head out for their date.

Tori and Jade arrive at an outdoor café, stepping up to the hostess, who seats them at their table. They're given a basket of breadsticks and some water while the two of them are looking at the menus.

"I know it's not a café in Paris, but I think this is the next best thing." Jade said.

"No, I think It's perfect."

It wasn't long before their waitress greeted them with a smile, bringing their drinks and taking their order. Tori ordered stuffed shells while Jade ordered a mixed green salad. They have never been here before, and Tori has wanted to come here after hearing people talk about how pretty the streets were at night. The shops across the street have turned their outdoor lights on a few moments ago, and so far this place has lived up to the hype. While waiting for their food to arrive, the two of them are enjoying breadsticks, and Jade asks for elaboration on what was going on at the house.

"Okay, you have to tell me more about this whole bra thing with Trina."

"Oh, she wanted more cleavage for whatever reason. She said her bras won't work for that." Tori explained.

"So, she decided to borrow yours?"

"Yeah, mine are, well smaller so she thought they'd make her more as she puts it 'ample'."

Jade raises an eyebrow with a shrug while taking a sip of her water. Tori looks at her not saying anything, and can't help but be curious.

"What?"

"Nothing, I mean, it's not the worst idea." Jade chuckled, shoving more of the breadstick in her mouth.

Tori sits up faking astonishment as she pulls off a piece of her breadstick, tossing it in Jade's direction.

"You're so mean to me."

"I'm kidding, come here, I love you." Jade says, leaning forward and laying a kiss on her lips.

They let their kiss linger a little longer before Tori pipes up.

"Kissing me doesn't mean you're forgiven."

"Just give it a few minutes." Jade said, continuing to kiss her.

In the midst of their kissing, the waitress came back with their food. Tori and Jade broke apart, worried that the moment might be awkward, but the waitress told them how cute they were as she set down their plates, and the two enjoyed their meal.

The girls arrive at the next part of their date at the movie theater. So far it's been a fun night out, and this was a different movie theater than the one they usually go to. This one had fancy red carpeting everywhere, and an old style box office. This is one of the theaters that plays older movies, and Jade has been wanting to check this place out for awhile now. While at the concession stand, the two of them debated who would pay for snacks.

"I'll buy the popcorn," Tori offered.

"No, you bought popcorn last time, it's my turn," Jade argued.

Tori rummaged around in her pocket for a moment, before pulling out a quarter. "Okay, let's say we let a coin toss decide."

"You're on," Jade responded.

"Call it," Tori says, tossing the coin up.

"Tails,"

Tori catches the coin back in her hand, looking at it before smiling back at Jade.

"Heads,"

Jade raises her eyebrows, nodding while taking her girlfriend's hand.

"Okay, okay, you win…for now," Jade told her.

"Wait, what do you mean 'for now' ?"

"You'll see." Jade said mischievously, before wrapping her arm around Tori as they entered the theater.

The movie they are there to see is "The Wolfman". It's one of Jade's favorites, and she wanted to experience what it was like to see it in theaters. They both sit down, with Tori setting the popcorn in her lap, and Jade wraps an arm around her. Tonight was Jade's pick for a horror movie, but so far Tori was okay with it, and she even found the movie interesting. Things haven't been too scary until the lead actress was in the woods by herself at night. Tori knew something was going to happen as she snuggled in closer to Jade. Jade was more than happy to hold her girlfriend tighter when the Wolfman popped out, showing himself. Tori tucked her face into Jade's neck, while Jade leaned over, kissing the top of her head. Even though Tori wasn't quite as scared as she was letting on, these movies were always a good excuse for snuggle time. Tori knew a good horror film made Jade happy, and any excuse to get this close to her girlfriend was well worth it.

The movie ended around 11pm, and even though the girls were a little tired, they were having one of the best dates they've had in awhile. As they walk across the parking lot, holding hands, Tori turns to face Jade, laying a soft kiss on her lips.

"Well, Trina should still be out for the evening.You want to head back to my place?" Tori asked.

"Definitely," Jade said, with a wide grin.

Tori looked at Jade seeing the gears turning in her head, and couldn't help but be curious.

"Why won't you tell me what you're up to?"

"It's a surprise," Jade told her. "Don't worry, you'll like it,"

Tori is still unsure, but still gives her a nod.

"Okay, then."

The two of them get in Jade's car, and head back to the house.

Tori flipped on the lights as soon as they got home, and Jade got comfortable on the couch. Tori came back with iced teas, and picked up the remote, looking through streaming services for something to watch. She flipped through a few movies before finally landing on "Elf". Tori looked at Jade who rolled her eyes, and she gave her girlfriend a fake pout.

"Aww, come on, it's funny."

"It's dumb." Jade protested.

"I know, that's why it's funny." Tori said, pouting her lips and batting her eyelashes. "Please?"

Jade huffed, but couldn't help laughing at how cute her girlfriend was. She didn't know how she managed to turn into such a softy.

"Fine, let's watch it."

"Yay!" Tori said, kissing her cheek, and hitting play.

Tori soon gets a text from Trina that she met a guy, and will be home late, giving her more time to be alone with her girl.

By the time the movie is over, it is after midnight, and Jade suggests the two take a swim. While Tori is changing into her bathing suit, Jade goes to hop in first, and is waiting for her girlfriend to get back. Tori is in the mirror securing her bikini top behind her neck, and adjusting her hair, before making her way to the backyard. She steps out onto the patio, placing her towel down on the lawn chair, and upon seeing her girlfriend, she is taken aback. Jade swims up to the edge of the pool where Tori is standing, while she notices that Jade is swimming naked. Tori stood there trying to think of something to say, but no words would come out. When Jade finally looked up at her, Tori could no longer hide her blushing.

"Hey Babe." Jade said.

"Hi, uhm…you're uhm…"

"I thought it'd be fun if we went skinny dipping." Jade told her.

Tori let out a nervous laugh, while tucking her hair behind her ears. She sat at the edge of the pool, dipping her legs in the water, while contemplating this proposition.

"I know we talked about me maybe getting naked with you, but I didn't think you meant right now." Tori said.

"That's why I waited until it got dark." Jade told her. "Come on, Tori. No one is around, and it's private back here. No one will know."

Tori sighed while considering the idea of skinny dipping with Jade as she toyed with the straps of her bathing suit. Jade smiled while placing her hands on her girlfriend's knees.

"What do you say? Want to get naked with me?" Jade asked.

Tori is silent for a moment, before giving her a smile. "Okay."

Tori slips off her top, and then stands up to take off her bottoms, before jumping in the pool. As she comes up to the surface, Jade swoops Tori up, pulling her close, laying a kiss on her lips. The balmy night air wafted over Tori's shoulders, along with Jade's fingers coming up to brush back her hair, making her shiver. Tori let out a giggle, resting her forehead on her girlfriend's, and continued to kiss her back. She normally doesn't do things like this, but Jade has brought out the more adventurous side of Tori. Truthfully, Tori enjoyed this side of herself, and wanted to have more experiences with Jade that forced her to try new things.

The two of them swam to the middle of the pool, with Jade kissing Tori's neck, before guiding her underwater. They were able to open their eyes just a bit in order to see each other, as Tori and Jade met in the middle for an underwater kiss. The kiss continued for as long as possible before having to break apart, with air bubbles escaping both their mouths, and they came back up.

"This is the best idea you've ever had." Tori told Jade.

"I told you it'd be fun."

"It is. This feels amazing."

"I think this feels amazing." Jade says, pulling Tori in for another kiss.

Tori melted into their deep kiss, their tongues mingling, and nestling their fingers into each other's hair. She would have to make a note to skinny dip with Jade more often, next time they had an evening alone. The beginning of their evening was of course great, but this was something Tori has never had anyone ask her to do before, and she is glad to have braved giving it a try.

After their swim, Tori and Jade are sitting together wrapped up in two large beach towels while enjoying the quiet that has come now over the neighborhood, at almost 1am. Tori rested her forehead on Jade's cheek, silently listening to her breathing. Jade sat running her fingers through Tori's wet hair, brushing a few strands behind her ear. In the time Tori and Jade have been together, they have shared many things about their lives that no one else knows. Some painful memories, some good ones, and most recently something that Jade has previously only enjoyed alone. Jade really appreciated that Tori kept her secret, and now she really likes that they have this secret together. She couldn't think of a better person to share the most intimate parts of her with, and have someone know her inside and out. Jade wrapped her arms tight around Tori, kissing her cheek, and whispers in her ear.

"What do you say we take this upstairs?"

"Okay." Tori nodded.

The two pulled their towels tight around themselves, with Tori leading Jade upstairs to end their evening wrapped in each other's arms. One of Tori's favorite places to be, with the one person who has her whole heart, and who she wants to share all her secrets with.
