"Hey Tori." Beck slides into the seat next to me in Math.

"Hey Beck." I greeted cautiously, looking around. "Where's Jade?"

He chuckled. "She's not here. I took advantage of that and I'm sitting next to you. If she was…" he trailed off.

"You would still sit here but I would be too scared to let you." I finished for him. He laughs.

"That sounds about right." He leans over and ruffles my hair. "So what's going on with the friend I'm not allowed to even look at?"

I sighed. "Nothing much. Just a bunch of C's, D's, and F's. I think I might be expelled with these grades."

Beck gasps in mock surprise. "The flawless Tori Vega is BAD at something?"

I take a playful swipe at him. "I just don't get thisstuff. It's too hard…or I'm dumb." I complain, leaning my head onto the desk. I look at him through half-closed eyes. "How do you do it? You're too busy making out with Jade to listen to anything in class."

"I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that. And if you want, I'll help you."

My snap my eyes open in astonishment. "You'd do that for me?"

He shrugs. "Why not?"

I look at him gratefully. "You're the best friend ever."

He smiles. "I know." His hand goes to the top of my head and rubs in circles. "And you're not dumb at all."

"Thanks."

"No problem. So you wanna come over to my RV this afternoon?"

My eyes light up. I've only been there once, thanks to Jade. Jade: what'll she do when she finds out? I shrug the thought off, thinking that if Beck was on my side, I'd be okay.

And Beck; he's just wonderful. It's just so sweet how Beck wants to still be friends with me even though Jade's so against it. And that kiss that we shared on her second day. Though I'd never admit it and I try to push it to the back of my mind, that kiss was the best kiss I'd ever had. Whenever I look at him, my gaze is drawn to his lips and I remember the soft, yet firm texture of them. It just made my skin tingle, especially "down there" when I think about how those I would feel as those lips caressed my virgin womanhood. And then as we kissed right in front of Jade, something made him thrust his tongue in expertly and turn it French, and it drove me senseless. Instead of feeling triumphant, I had felt as though I had been taught a lesson. I'm not going to pretend: I want Beck and I know it. But everyone knows: there are things you just can't have—and Beck is one of those. Lately, he's been getting irritated with Jade—well actually, if you ask me, he always seemed that way—and doesn't make out with her as often.

Beck is the untouchable—it's never going to happen. But a girl can dream…right?

—Beck—

For some odd reason, I've been thinking of Tori for long, long periods of time. She's on my mind at school, at night, in my dreams, and even when I'm kissing Jade.

Speaking of Jade, she's constantly getting on my nerves too. Getting mad or jealous for every little thing. I guess at first I thought it was cute but now, it was interfering with my social life. When Jade looks at me, it's always a look of possession. When Tori looks at me though, I grow nervous and my palms grow sweaty. Her energetic smiles are always so adorable but yet, they make me anxious.

During one of those rare times I actually talk to her, my eyes always seem to stray to her lips and I think back to that time she kissed me to get back at Jade. Her mouth moved perfectly with mine and I got this urge to get my tongue inside and taste every inch of her. If we didn't have an audience, I would have gone further, and let my hand sneak up her shirt or maybe, if I was daring, down her skirt to feel her. Her very touch just excites me—to the point where I have to actually will an erection down.

I've gone that far with Jade but our sex life lacks…intensity. She's always the one that wants to be pleasured like the spoiled princess she is. She has fire but it lacks passion. She's too possessive of me and forgets that I could think for myself. Tori actually asksfor my opinion.

Tori has an amazing body as well. Flat stomach, perky breasts that are perfect; not too small or big—believe me, I've had a LOT of time to think about these things—long legs and her ass is firm and round. I haven't forgotten how she tastes; like honey and flowers but I haven't gotten that chance to try that place yet.

….Wow….I just realized that I was comparing Jade to Tori all this time—and completely criticizing Jade.

I wonder why I'm still with her after all this time. Obviously, I don't like her anymore and I certainly like someone else A LOT more.

And I get to spend some alone tutoring time with her in my RV tonight. Hope I can succeed in hiding a hard boner.

After she leaves, I'm going to have a lot of work to do to will THAT one away.
