_______________________________
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. Why? Was all that Andre could think as he started blankly at Tori, the girl standing on his proch as she looked at him with a smile.
He had no idea why she was here.
Did him not texting her back gave a hint or a sign? Did him actively avoiding her at school also didn't give a sign?
Andre was up in his room and happily chatting with Ciro on a video call as the two talked about what kind of song that they can write together. The plot of that was lost soon after her kids came in the room, instantly chatting up a storm with him.
Not that he minded at all as he enjoyed both of their company and their jokes. The jokes however were mostly about him hopefully stepping his ass up and finally asking their mother out on a date.
He's working up to that.
A little time is just needed as he had to literally write on a piece of paper to ask her out on a date.
But anyway, he was having fun chatting with them until her heard the door bell being rung repeatedly. He had to excuse himself and nearly fell down the damn stairs to hurry and answer the door. All that he wanted to do was just get back to Ciro, Jayden and Jaylen.
He thought it was one of his friends or his grandma as she would seem to just forget how to use a door handle.
What he didn't expect was to see Tori at the door.
She came over uninvited, it was utterly annoying and uncalled for unless there was something seriously wrong.
"What do you want?" He asks her with a blank look on his face, causing the girl to blink in surprise at his question, taken aback as he sounded like he didn't want to see her. "Can I come in?" She asks the male who shook his head. "No, I'm busy. So I'll ask again, what do you want?" He asks.
Her attitude towards Ciro rubs him the wrong way. And he really hated when she had blamed Ciro for Jade breaking up with Beck.
It wasn't her fault that Jade saw that she wanted and deserved better.
Having a boyfriend that flirted with just about every girl was tiring and he could have seen it on Jade's face. He just really hoped that she'll find better.
Though he doesn't doubt that she will at some point. "Busy?" Tori asked him with a frown on her lips. "Busy doing what??" She questions and the male bites back a not so nice retort.
Why was she asking? Couldn't she just tell him what she wanted?
"I'm on a call," he deadpans. "Now once again, for the third time now- what do you want?" He asks, itching to head up to his room again.
The girl before him lets out a soft sigh as she tried figuring out what had him like this. He's never acted like this with her before. And how was a call making him busy? It's just a call is it not?
"You haven't been texting me back and you've been distant, hanging out with that new girl," she stated as her frown deepens as Andre's eye twitched.
That new girl?
He was pretty sure that Tori knows her name yet chooses to not use it.
Always calling Ciro 'new girl' or 'her'.
"Ciro," Andre states as Tori furrows her brows in confusion. "Her name is Ciro," he added and she rolls her eyes, unable to stop herself from doing so. She knew the girl's name.
All she hears is 'Ciro this, Ciro that' and oddly it's always about how talented she is when it came to dancing. No one had heard her really sing yet but they all had high hopes already just from her dances. Tori couldn't get away from the praise of the new girl.
Would they all still like her, knowing she takes care of her younger twin brothers and calls them her kids?
"Yeah, whatever." She mutters, annoyed at the male. Did he only hear what she'd called Ciro? Not anything else she's said to him?
Where was his mind right now?
She pinches the bridge of her nose as the male contiunes staring at her blankly. "I no longer want to be friends with you or Beck," he states causing her to stiffen as her lips parted in shock. "I don't like the way you act and I should've cut you off a long time ago," he added as he lets out a bitter laugh.
God, he felt stupid. There are things that Tori has done that should've never been brushed off the way they were.
She kissed Beck to get back at Jade since she threw coffee on her but how did that equal to kissing someone's boyfriend? It didn't. There was the time were she had handcuffed Cat to the stairs and forgot that she did so, she kissed Cat's ex whom was also her ex and Cat punched her in the face. Which she deserved. She made Andre miss a birthday party for one of his relatives just because she needed him to write a song for her. Tori also seemed to make almost everything about her as well.
And the list goes on and on.
Yeah, I was stupid, he thinks to himself.
"W-what?" She breathes out in surprise and shock, trying her utter best to wrap her head around his words.
No longer wanted to be friends with her nor Beck? Should have cut her off a long time ago?
Where was this coming from?
Has Andre lost his mind? Did he know what the hell he was saying right now?
"I said what I said," he states and Tori's jaw clenched as she already knew who was to blame for this.
Only one person can be blamed for this. "Is this her doing?" She asks Andre with a look disbelief as the male gives her a look of utter confusion.
Her doing?
Whose? Who was she speaking about?? Eitherway, this was no-one's doing. This was because he just didn't want Tori nor Beck in his life anymore. They were too grown to act stupid. Yes they're only 18, but that's old enough to know right from wrong.
"Her who?" He asks with squinted brows as he leans against his door. "Ciro, duh!" She yells at the male. "Eversince she has come here, things have been changing and not for the better!" She added as her anger and annoyance towards the brown skinned girl more and more.
She knew that she would ruin Andre, it's already happening.
But for some reason, Andre couldn't see it.
That girl caused Jade and Beck's breakup and didn't care, she caused Andre to not eat with them, she caused him to barely talk to her, Beck and their other friends as well. Now she was forcing him to stop being friends with her?
Why couldn't Andre see that this girl is trouble?
Was he that desperate to get laid? Was that it? Was it to just make her regret not dating him?
Andre could only stare at Tori. Was she serious right now? Was she really going to blame Ciro for everything?
"Why are you so blind? She has alot of baggage, she dresses weirdly and she's making everythin-," her words are cut off by Andre's yelling. "Enough Tori!" He spat out at the girl who flinches back in disbelief that he'd yell at her like this.
Actually, she doesn't remember hearing him yell before.
Especially like this.
Andre was enraged, more so than ever as he glared at his now ex friend. What was wrong with her?
"I really don't care what you say." Andre states lowly but firmly. "She doesn't have baggage, she's just had a rough life and that doesn't give you the right to say shit about her." He continued.
"She dresses just fine, I happen to really like her style. She isn't the reason things are changing and I'm not blind. Infact I can see alot clearly now. Ciro hasn't done anything," he adds as he rubs his temple.
This was giving him a headache and he just wanted this to be over.
"Now leave," he added before he gently pushes her back slightly and closes the door as she stood there in shock while he locked the door. "Finally," he mutters to himself before he headed back up the stairs.
As he inched closer and closer towards his room, he heard laughter but not just any laughter, his Grandmother's own.
She's home?
Wait she's in his room??
The male's steps quicken and he opens the door to his room, seeing his grandma sitting on his bed, his phone in her hand as she smiled widely as Ciro, Jayden and Jaylen were talking to her.
Normally.
When people met her, they instantly just think that she's slow when she isn't. She is just loud and forgot things sometimes.
But people didn't see her as just that. No, they saw her as crazy. Yet her she is, just chatting happily with Ciro and the twins. "Oh Andre!" His Grandma yells out and he snapped out his thoughts as he made eye contact with her. "Can talk with us!" She says, the excitement evident in her voice while the three on the video call laughed fondly at the woman.
They all found her endearing.
Yes she's loud but she's really nice and funny as well. Though they didn't know what to expect when she came into the room, spotting them on the video call. But she instantly started talking to them even telling that not many people talks to her and thanking them for not telling her to go away.
"Yeah, okay," Andre says as a soft smile tugged at his lips. He needed this now.
"Get the fuck off me, bitch." Ciro mutters as she tried shrugging Donnie's arm off her shoulder as the two were walking in to school.
Today was his first at Hollywood Arts so of course he was sticking closely to her. "Awe, don't be like that. I thought yo ass loved me," he huffs out as she rolled her eyes. "I do love you," she grunts out and the male's lips twitched upwards into a warn grin. "Awe, I love you too." He says back before she shoves his face away as he went to kiss her cheek.
"Stop hating me!" He exclaimed making her snort as she shook her head causing him to pout. He stares at her for a tad bit and watches as her eyes lit up slightly.
The male arches a brow at that and see's the way that her lips twitched upwards, he makes a face and looked to where she was looking only to see a male standing by the entrance of the school.
Must be Andre, he thinks to himself as he eyed the male. Honestly though Ciro has never said anything about having a type, he believed this boy was it.
He didn't know why though.
"Morning," Andre says softly to Ciro as he handed her poptart, glancing over at Donnie as he too greeted the male before he handed Ciro a cranberry juice. Damn, Donnie thinks. This boy already knew of one of the ways to Ciro's heart it seemed.
That's good because he's rooting for the two to get together from all he's heard of the male. Not only from Ciro but Jayden and Jaylen.
They're protective of Ciro and won't let just let any male near her, let alone date her yet they seem all for Andre dating her.
"Back at ya, you must be Andre?" Donnie asks the male who nodded his head as a sigh passes Ciro's lips. She was ready to smack the shit out of him if he says some shit that he shouldn't. "Heard alot about ya," the slightly taller male added which made Andre perk up.
He wasn't too sure who the hell he was but he knew that he had to be close to Ciro in order to have his arm over her shoulder like that. Meaning that it was probably her best friend since the only other male she knew other than Andre himself and her best friend is an older man.
At first, his heart ached when he's saw her walk in with Donnie, his arm slung over her shoulder but he also knew that he shouldn't jump to conclusions. And he didn't have the right to be jealous.
They weren't even dating.
But he wishes they were.
"All good things hopefully," Andre says back and Donnie smirks. "Well only the good things actually," he states and lets out a groan when he's hit in the side by his best friend. "Damn bitch," he whines out as Ciro was the one to smirk now as Andre eyed her almost lovingly. "Ughhh, you damn well you didn't have to do that to me." Donnie mutters.
Ciro just shrugs and turns her attention onto Andre, giving him a soft smile that melted his heart. "Thank you," she says as she held up the poptart and cranberry juice. "You're welcome," he replies as the two ignored a dramatic Donnie who was holding his side, wailing about how he'd got shot.
It caused a few students to look at him amusement as he sunk to the floor.
"This fool is my best friend, Donnie. He'll be in Sikowitz's class but he'll actually be acting. He'll probably have a few other classes with us," Ciro added and Andre nods his head.
So I was right, he is her best friend, he thinks to himself. "Cool," he muttered. "Also, I like your outfit," he says while eyeing her up and down before he felt the panic set in. "N-not that I don't like your other outfits," he rushed out and she snorted, pushing up her glasses.
"I know and thank you," she says as her best friend was instantly by her side as a pout played on his lips. "What about my outfit?" He asks Andre as he does a tiny spin, making Ciro roll her eyes. "I like it as well," Andre says with a soft laugh.
Donnie smirks and wiggles his brows at Ciro. "Nigga I picked that out for ya ass," she deadpans and he gives her a stank eye. "Okay but who asked?" He huffs out as Andre tries holding back his laughter. "Don't piss me off already," the teen girl scoffs out making him purse his lips.
[They both like timberlands.]
