025. i did something bad

"Well somebody has to be... look at how sad these poor babies look!" Tori admitted as she placed the watering can down, while Carice tried to stifle a giggle. "You're really laughing at me right now?" She huffed, causing Carice to laugh more.

"I can't help it... I forgot how adorable Humanity-Tori is." Carice confessed, as Victoria blushed. "You... think I'm adorable?" She asked.

Carice realised what she had said and quickly tried to back peddle, "I mean... no, but—" She stammered, as Tori looked a little smugly at the Bailey who laughed nervously, "Fine... Maybe I do, but honestly who wouldn't?" Clary asked rhetorically.

Tori shrugged, not seeming to have her usual confidence, "I have to disagree. Everyone has the right to hate me for what I did... especially Glen... and especially you." The Mikealson admitted as Carice tilted her head, "I..." She paused, unsure on what to even say. On one hand, she came from the Bennett bloodline and she was supposed to hate Mikealsons, but could she really ever truly hate Tori?

"We were enemies... and I tried to play you like I did Glen... using you guys without a care to just move onto somebody else. It's a horrible way to treat people." The hybrid insisted as Clary shook her head, "I was horrible to you too... I always have been." The Bailey began.

"Ever since we first met... I made it my job to villainise you and Hope... but all along the villain has been me." Carice awkwardly laughed, as Tori went to disagree but Clary knew she was right.

"I don't hate you, Tori. Maybe I did once... but I could never hate you now, even after everything that you've done." Clary assured the blonde, as she took her hands gently in her own.

Tori looked down at their joined hands, before looking back up at Carice. "Even though I was malicious with my intentions... everything that happened between us while I had my humanity off... it was real, at least for me." Victoria insisted.

Clary nodded, "It was real to me too." She spoke, before she found herself gazing into Tori's blue eyes. Tori couldn't help but to smile, as she looked to Carice longingly, before she leant forward and kissed the witch.

Carice's eyes closed, as she began to kiss the hybrid back, while her hands found themselves moving to cup Victoria's cheeks. Tori couldn't help but to smile into the kiss as she threw her arms around Clary's waist, before the pair finally broke apart.

"Wow." Clary blurted, before she laughed. "I know we've kissed so many times before but that felt so different?" She admitted confusedly as Tori agreed, also giggling slightly as the pair continued to hold eachother.

"Listen up 4's, the 10 is talking." Beau announced, approaching Lucas, Landon, Wade, MG and Rafael who were sitting around a table. "Except for you Lucie, you're a 12." The Lazuli winked as Lucas rolled his eyes at his best friend's dramatics.

"I have acquired coffee to everyone's liking and some snacks... please tell me you've helped my boy come up with a decent list of potential Salvatore enrolments." Beaumont spoke, placing the tray of coffee down, before emptying his pockets of snacks he had taken from the kitchen pantry.

MG noticed that Beau had royally fucked up his coffee, which he figured had to he intentional. Beau had been mad at the Greasley lately, and the vampire honestly wasn't sure why.
