Senior year (Victorious)

Halloween part 2

"I'm bigger than my body
I'm colder than this home
I'm meaner than my demons
I'm bigger than these bones."
Jade sang the last pre chorus, getting ready to put all her power and vocal talent into the end of the song. Jade didn't hold back when she sang, she used it a way to vent so when she sang she went for it.

"And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control?
And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control?"
The beat finished off as thunderous applause erupted from the audience, loudest of all was Cat, cheering in complete support. That was one thing Jade didn't quite understand but stilled loved about her redhead girlfriend. Cat was never jealous of her friends talent. Unlike Jade or Tori who, under the outward support, would have that small niggling parasyte of jealousy within them whenever another was successful, or got a leading role in a play, Cat never held any jealousy. Cat gave her full and true support for her friends. She was happy for them unequivocally.

Jade proudly walked off stage as the eyes of her fellow students followed her. She headed straight towards her girlfriend who was bouncing up and down while smiling up at her. Jade grabbed her by the hand and graciously dipped her which, if the sudden blush and gasp was anything to go by, Cat was not expecting. Jade pressed her lips to Cat's who responded by wrapping her arms around Jade's neck.

The crowd cheered but the pair didn't even register them. Jade brought her back upright but continued making out with Cat. As the crowd realised the girls weren't going to stop anytime soon they awkwardly shuffled away and focused themselves elsewhere.

"Gotta give her credit." Andre said to Beck.
"Jade really knows how to put on a show."

"Uh huh." Beck responded blankly. He wasn't really paying attention to what his friend was saying. His eyes were glued to Tori, who was hanging out with her sister off to the side.

"Hey babe wanna go get some food?" B asked Andre as she gave him a gentle nudge.

"Yeah sure why not." Andre said happily. B wasn't used to dating and so it tended to be Andre who set suggest date ideas. It was nice to see that she was trying.
"Hey Beck, me and B are gonna get some food so see you in a bit."

"Uh huh." Beck responded blankly as he kept his eyes on Tori.

Andre patted Beck on the back.
"Try and have some fun man." He said as he walked off with B away from the party.

"So Tori you enjoying the party?" Trina asked her younger sister.

"Uh huh." Tori responded blankly, she took occasional glances over at Beck who was chatting with Robbie. Andre and B had just left so Beck walked over to the curly haired boy. Tori could see Beck wasn't entirely engaged in his conversation, like herself. Tori felt regret bubble within her stomach causing nausea to flow through her. She cared about Beck and so shutting down the conversation with him so quickly hurt her. But she had to stick with her guns, Tori couldn't do that to Jade. Jade was in a happy relationship with Cat and so if Tori and Beck did date it could ruin that for Jade and Cat.

"Tori you convinced me to come to this party could you not be all glum?" Trina said teasingly as she lightly punched her arm.

"Sorry." Tori shook herself out of her trance and looked at her sister.
"Just a lot on my mind."

"Like one tall Canadian boy in particular." Trina teased.

"Uh what no I don't know what you're talking about." Tori said in a flustered voice as her cheeks lit up.

"Oh sis cmon it's totally obvious you like him." Trina said.
"Which I must say I can't blame ya." She added nudging her sister.

"Maybe you should ask him out." Tori joked.

"Well I'm not really looking my best at the moment." Trina said sadly as she rubbed her stomach.
"Anyway, why don't you go talk to him, you've known each other for years."

"I can't." Tori sighed. "With Jade and Beck's history we just can't."'

"Well whatever you say sis." Trina said softly.

"What about you?" Tori asked. "Gonna get on the dating scene?"

"I feel like I shouldn't." Trina smiled softly while rubbing her stomach.
"At least until I figure out all this."

"Yeah I guess that's fair." Tori responded as she cleared her throat awkwardly.
"Do you...do you know who the father is?"

Trina paused for a moment and took a deep breath.
"No...all I know if he's some guy with a piercing above his eye and grey hair."

"Grey hair?" Tori asked nervously. "Was he old?"

"No it was dyed." Trina responded.

"Who dyes there hair gray?!" Tori asked in disbelief.

"Not like old person gray but like that metallic steel colour ya know." Trina clarified and Tori nodded her head in understanding.
"Anyway, I was drunk at a party and he was hot so I slept with him and I was so hungover I didn't end up taking the pill and so got pregnant but I don't know anything about the guy himself."

"Did you get his name or anything?" Tori asked.

"He said it was Doug but that's all I know." Trina responded before shaking her head with shame at herself.
"You probably just think I'm a slut."

"No no not at all." Tori said quickly.

"It's okay if you think that Tori." Trina said sadly before sighing.
"Ima head home, can you get Jade or someone to give you a lift?" She asked as Tori nodded.
"And in my opinion if you really like Beck you shouldn't sacrifice your happiness cause of someone else." Trina added as she walked away.
