Parenthood.

Writer: Invader Johnny.

Disclaimer: Victorious belongs to Dan Schneider, I own squat!

Plot: Jade and Tori walk to their car one rainy night after a meal and get a surprise on the way, established Jori.

Author Notes: this takes place in the same universe as my "50 shades of Jori" fic what can I say? This idea kinda came to me one night after watching a very old episode of "Friends."

I think it's probably the first time that I don't write anything dark, wow, that's a first for me!

Anyways read, review and most of all enjoy my story!

Jade and Tori were walking down the rainy streets of L.A, both women were in coats and under an umbrella.

"I told you we shouldn't have parked so far from the restaurant Jade"

"Cut me some slack Vega!" Jade snapped "It was sunny just an hour ago, and the car is only a block away, stupid weather"

Tori frowned and held up her wedding ring. "I'm a West, remember?"

Jade's jaw briefly hardened. "You know what I mean."

"Yes I do but we're getting off topic here, next time let's not take any chances and park the car where we can see it whenever we have plans, umm?"

"Fine"

Before it started to rain the married couple was talking about the prospect of having another child.

"I think both Danielle and Tawny are more excited about this than we are"

"For obvious reasons Tori" Jade said "They are going to be big sisters"

"I wish I knew what that's like"

"What do you mean?"

"Growing up I always hoped my dad and Holly would have another child, being the youngest I never knew what it felt like having someone to look up to you, I kinda had this desire to be a big sister ya know?"

"Really?" Jade asked perplexed "I didn't know that"

"Well it never was a topic we talked about before Jade, but yeah it was something I always wanted to experience, I mean whenever we see how well Danielle and Tawny get along, it brings up a great sisterly bond and I can't help but feel a bit... Jealous that I never had that with Trina"

"That's because your sister is the spawn of a banshee"

"Jade!"

The Goth snickered and kissed her wife afterwards.

"All jokes aside Tori, I can tell you right now that being an older sibling isn't all that great"

"You're only saying that because your brother is deathly afraid of you"

"True, but my point still stands, I think you're lucky to be the youngest, I mean what if your parents had made another Trina?"

Tori shuddered in disgust "I see your point"

Jade got her arm across her wife's waist "You know I'm right"

"Going back to the baby, I was thinking maybe you should carry it this time Jade"

"Not a good idea"

"Oh? And why not?"

"Are you prepared to handle a hormonal bitchy wife for the next nine months?"

"How is that different from my regular wife?" The half-Latina teased.

Before the pale woman could reply back with a nasty remark they heard a whine.

They both stopped in their tracks as they reached an alley.

"You heard that?"

Jade nodded "I did"

They heard another whine.

"Stay here Tori" The Goth ordered softly, giving her the umbrella.

"Jade! No! Wait! Come back!"

The woman walked into the alley, hoping to see the cause of the noise.

She didn't have to wait long since this time she heard a cry.

"Whaah."

Jade turned her head at the direction of the wail; she saw a small carton box in the middle of two trash cans.

She soon noticed that the box was moving.

"What the hell?"

"Jade?"

"Tori get in here."

The Latina was too happy to comply with the request since she was not comfortable with the idea of her wife being in a dark scary alley by herself even if they were no more than three feet away from each other.

"What is it?"

The Goth pointed at the cardbox, both women slowly walked towards it, still hearing the small cries from within as they got closer.

Once they reached the box, they crouched and together they began to open it.

And once they did they shared a gasp of surprise.

"My God."

"This is sick."

A fidgeting baby was inside the box, tears in its big blue eyes.

Once the infant saw the two women staring back at him, it opened its tiny arms as if asking for warm human affection.

"Oh you poor thing" Tori cooed.

Without a second thought she instinctively got the baby out of the box and held it to her chest as if it was her own child.

The tiny infant touched Tori's face, curious of the woman that was now holding him.

"What kind of sick bastards abandons a baby in the trash?!" Jade snarled.

"I don't know Jade, I really don't know."

The Goth looked inside the box, hoping to find any form of identification for the infant but was met with only a soaked dirty blanket.

"How long do you think he's been here?"

"How do you know it's a he?"

"I checked."

"Oh, well it couldn't have been too long" Jade said "At least I hope not."

"Did you find anything in the box?"

"Only the damn blanket."

Tori looked down at the unnamed baby in her arms, there were many scenarios she could think of as to why he was left out alone in the cold, and in a dark alley to boost, ultimately she could only assume that his parents didn't want the responsibility of raising him or worse, didn't love him and were more than willing to ditch him like it was yesterday's garbage rather than a newborn human being for whatever selfish reasons, in her eyes those people had no heart, had no soul, and no regard for the baby's life.

They were monsters through and through.

So looking down into the big round eyes of the vulnerable little orphan, she made a critical decision, one that she would be proud of for the rest of her life.

"Well I'm not about to leave you here."

The Latina quickly got up and walked out of the alley, Jade not too far behind.

Tori covered the baby with her coat "There you go um… Anthony, this should protect you from the cold."

The newly named baby cooed as his eyes began to close.

Jade catches up with her wife, the umbrella now protecting the trio from the rain.

She curiously looked at the little boy in Tori's arms "Wait… Anthony?"

"Yes, Anthony" Tori said firmly "Jade, I'm willing to bet that his parents didn't even had the damned decency to named him, it's not right and I'm not going to follow that example, he deserves a name and I'll be sure that he does gets one."

The Goth nodded "So, what now?"

"We're going to see that he's OK."

"To the Hospital, Vega?"

"Where else are we going to check his his health?" Tori snapped "And its West!"

"Don't need to get snippy with me!"

"Then don't ask stupid questions and get moving!"

Jade couldn't help but chuckle "Being married to me for so long has done wonders for your personality."

"So not the time Jade!"

They quickly made their way towards their car, all the while Tori kept holding the baby close to her heart.

"You'll be fine... Anthony... I promise."

Author Notes: I think this turned out to be a rather sweet fic, I don't know about the ending thought, seemed kinda rushed to me, but what do you guys think? should I write another chapter or leave it as a one-shot?

I think the idea of Tori adopting a child she just saw is in character for her, some people actually seem to fall in love with a baby the moment they see him or her, and I believe that could be the case with the Half-Latina.

Anyways, comments?
