Chapter 35 – Reunion

No One's POV

It was only one dance, but it blew Jade away. But it was only one dance and before she knew it, the dance was done. Jade, still in a bit of a daze, not to mention a bit hot and bothered, walked out back into the main part of the club.

Looking into Tori's section she could see the Latina was back at work. Tori paused for a moment and smiled, before getting back to work.

Jade stayed there the rest of the night, always watching Tori. It amazed how easy it was to lose track of time, when Tori was in view. At the same time, she thought about working even harder to get better. So her and Tori could take that real next step.

The next morning Tori didn't mention the dance, Jade didn't either. It was each realized that what happened was nothing more than a fantasy, a dream. But each knew that one day that dream would be reality.

They just had to take their time and let things grow.

Late Sunday morning, Barbie texted and say Cat wanted to meet them for lunch at a sports bar near times square at 12:30. Eager to see their friend again they readied and headed out.

"I'm nervous Jade." Tori said as she pulled open the door of the bar.

"Relax"

Entering the bar, they found Barbie waiting for them just inside.

"Tori, Jade, glad for you to come. Cat's very anxious to see you again."

Tori spoke first. "Barbie, you've been with her the last few days, how is she?"

"I didn't know her before this, but she seems to be coming around. She feels very embarrassed and rather badly about how she treated you."

"So, how have you two been getting along?" Asked Jade.

"Great. I've taken her shopping and we've done some things. Oh, here she comes now.

When they had seen her last, she had brown hair and a rather long conservative dress. But as she came around the corner, she looked very much like her old self, with red hair and very colorful pink dress.

Tori stepped forward and smiled at Cat who smiled back, but it was smile tinged with sadness.

"Hello Cat."

For a moment the red-haired girl looked at a total loss for words and after a moment seemed to just start to cry.

"I'm sorry Tori. I was horrible to you, I'm sorry."

Which then prompted Tori to break into tears, who then ran and hugged Cat. The pair hugged, cried and tearfully told each other how much they missed the other.

All of this prompted Jade to roll her eyes and say acidly. "Oh great, here comes the waterworks."

And that prompted Barbie to smack Jade on the shoulder. "Quiet, we're having a tearful reunion here."

"Don't touch me, only Tori can touch me." Snapped Jade in return.

"Ooooohhh...I'm sorry for forgetting only your precious girlfriend can touch you." Retorted Barbie sarcastically.

"She's not my girlfriend!" Bellowed Jade instantly.

Abruptly, Tori and Cat who were still hugging and crying stopped and gave Jade a rather curious look.
