Jade ends up spending the day, which is surprising. Despite the implications, they don’t immediately fall into Tori’s bed. Well, they do, but they end up stretched out together, staring at Tori’s ceiling as they get caught up on everything that’s happened.
…
Tori borrows Trina’s car after promising half a dozen times to be careful, even though Trina drives far more reckless than Tori.
"So you're really not going to tell me where we're going?" Jade asks.
"Nope," Tori replies. "It's a surprise."
"What if I don't like surprises?"
"Everyone likes surprises," Tori says.
"I'm not everyone," Jade retorts.
"Well that's certainly true."
Jade smirks.
"Maybe you could just trust me then?" Tori asks, batting her eyes as she stops at a light.
"I will if you never do that again, Vega."
"Noted."
…
"A movie Vega?" Jade asks when Tori parks in front of the F & F movie theater.
"A double feature, actually," Tori replies, smiling. "Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead."
"Seriously?"
Tori shrugs. "You're not a fan of Romero anymore?"
"Of course, I am you, idiot," Jade replies. "I just can't believe you remember."
"You're pretty unforgettable," Tori says.
"And you apparently got smarter," Jade says getting out of the car.
Walking through the parking lot, Tori grabs Jade's hand, expecting to be rebuffed, but Jade just smiles.
After getting tickets, they find seats near the back of the theater. It's only about a third full, but Tori figures it's because it's the last day the movies are playing and everyone else has already seen them.
"Nervous?" Jade asks.
"It's just a zombie movie," Tori replies.
"A classic zombie movie," Jade corrects.
"Of course. I'm so sorry."
"You should be."
…
Tori ends up watching Jade more than the movie; partly because she can now. Being at Hollywood Arts and thinking she'd blown her chance to have Jade had been killing her. The only things that saved her were Andre and being overwhelmed at everything she didn’t know. It's how she survived.
But now that Jade has forgiven her, Tori is just barely able to hold her giddiness in. And she's only doing that for Jade because it's probably just a little too soon for bouncy Tori. After all, a lot has changed since they last same each other.
Tori's not worried though. If Jade can forgive her, then they'll be just fine.
…
The credits are rolling on Dawn of the Dead when Jade pulls Tori into her lap. Tori lets out a squeal of surprise but doesn't fight it.
"Did you like 'em?" Jade asks.
Tori nods. "But I've already seen them."
"When?"
Tori blushes. "I've seen a lot more horror movies since… It, uh, I, um, would… when I was missing you, it helped."
Jade chuckles.
"Shut up," Tori pouts.
"It's cute," Jade tells her. "Does that mean you're a horror movie fan now?"
"Um, I don't know."
"Have you at least noticed the commentary in the better ones?" Jade asks.
"I think so."
"Hmmm. There may be a test later," Jade smirks.
"You wouldn't," Tori says.
Jade's smirk grows.
"Are we just going to stay here?" Tori asks.
"I've been wanting to do this for a while," Jade replies. She pulls Tori in for a kiss.
Sitting on Jade's lap allows Tori to sneak her hands between them and slowly lets her hands create patterns starting at Jade's waist and up to her chest. Considering what Jade's hands are doing to Tori's ass, Tori doesn't feel a bit guilty. Especially since it seems that Jade's boobs have grown since the last time Tori touched them.
Tori has no idea how long they're kissing, but she starts to feel like she's being watched. She pulls away from Jade to find one of the employees, a guy in his 20s, staring at them and grinning.
Noticing him, Jade growls.
"We're closing," he says.
Tori stands and pulls Jade with, worried that Jade will do something drastic. Fingers still interlaced, Tori drags Jade past him at a quick pace, but that doesn't stop Jade from kicking him in the junk from behind as she passes. He crumples to the ground with a groan.
"Jade," Tori hisses.
Jade, smirking, just shrugs.
Worried about voyeurs, Tori refuses to make out in the parking lot of the theater. She drives to Jade's house, but parks on the street instead of in the driveway.
"The street? Really?" Jade asks.
Tori doesn't answer, just turns off the car and slides into the passenger seat next to Jade.
"If your dad's home, it'll be harder for him to spy," Tori explains.
"I don't think he cares enough to spy," Jade informs her.
"Oh. Okay."
"Don’t give me that look," Jade says.
"I didn't--I wasn't--"
"Shut up and kiss me," Jade tells her.
So Tori does.
…
Humming to herself, Tori practically floats into the house a couple hours later.
Trina's in the kitchen, getting a drink. "I still don’t understand how you two work," she says.
"What does that mean?" Tori asks.
"I just never pictured Jade with you," Trina explains.
"You've thought about it a lot?" Tori questions.
"Well, no," Trina replies. "But you're… you. And she's… Jade."
"I'm not sure if you're insulting me or her," Tori says.
"Just an observation," Trina replies.
"Well I don't want to hear your observations," Tori retorts.
"Awfully sensitive, aren't you?"
"I thought you were going to be supportive about this," Tori says.
"I am," Trina replies. "But that doesn't mean I can't ask questions."
"We like each other," Tori says. "That's all that matters, okay?"
"At the moment, maybe," Trina replies. "But what about tomorrow at school? And what about mom and dad?"
"They'll be fine with it," Tori insists. "At least least Jade can't get me pregnant."
"Maybe you should open with that," Trina suggests.
"I'm going to bed," Tori says. "Your negativity is ruining my good mood."
"What you call negativity, I call reality," Trina shouts after Tori. Seeing that Tori is still ignoring her, Trina shrugs. "Oh well. Tomorrow should be interesting."
