... "Your parents gone already?" "Yeah," she replied, putting some sandals on, "Turns out when you leave for two months, the food in the fridge goes bad, so I guess they are get-ting groceries." "Right…" he chuckled, "I'm sure none of it has to do with being trapped with Trina for two months." Tori laughed, and headed out the door and jumped in the car as Andre tried his best to do a 'cool' slide across the hood, but failed miserably. The friends laughed together like nothing had changed, but she could tell something was up with him. "So… fill me in. What have I missed?" Andre took a deep breath and gripped the wheel a bit tighter. "Not much and quite a bit all at the same time." "Because that makes sense…" "I mean," he paused, "Obviously you probably know about Jade's whole thing with her boyfriend from Seattle, since it’s all she certainly hasn't said anything to me about it. I honestly haven't seen much of her outside of when I see Cat, since they are living together for a while." "What?!" "Yeah," Andre shook his head. "It's mad stupid. Cat's parents didn't really take too well to her coming out and everything, so they kicked her out. I think she's going to move in with her grandmother, but in the meantime, Jade's taking her in."

I don't know if I should ask, but… I haven't heard from Nate really since the night before I left. Is he doing ok?" "If he isn't, he certainly isn't talking about it. But you know that guy. He's in love with you, and if I was crazy about someone and they were caught hooking up with their ex, I'd-" "Yeah," Tori cut him off, "I get the picture…" "About Beck and all…" Andre said, pulling into a parking spot at the Chinese restaurant. "Listen, you should probably-" "HEY!" came a call from rear window as a perky redhead rounded the car. Her hair was a more vibrant red than the darker version she'd had for the last couple years. Tori wasn't exactly sure if this was connected to her big life decision or if it was just Cat trying something new. Andre and Tori got out of the car slowly and went in for hugs from the hyperactive Cat, though neither of them were expecting the same pleasant-ries from Cat's darkly dressed partner. "And I was this close to celebrating never seeing you again, Vega…" "Oh please, Jade," Tori said, smiling. "You missed me like crazy and you know it." "It's true," Cat spoke up. "She's been happy all morning that you're- Ow!" Jade's elbow met Cat's upper arm with some f*rce, silencing the giddy teenager. Not much else was said as the four friends headed into the food joint, eagerly awaiting ...
