OneShots -Dance The Night Away

Some Secrets Are Worth It.

Jade's POV.

————————

"Whatcha dooooin?" Tori asked way too innocently.

Glancing up at her from my spot on the couch, I rose an eyebrow and slowly closed my laptop as I pushed my headphones down so they hung around my neck.

"Listening to music and working on a script, you?"

"Well... I just got a call about a job offer for a new movie," she said and I resisted the urge to leap on her. She didn't seem all to excited for this offer.

"What movie?"

"Well I don't know, I have to go audition tomorrow, but they said I'm pretty much the person they want to play it. Will you come with me tomorrow, please?"

"Of course, Vega," I smiled up at her. It wasn't the first time she asked me to tag along to an audition. She said I was her good luck charm.

She leaned down, pressing a kiss to my lips before heading over to the kitchen.

She always liked to bake cookies before an audition. She said it helped her with nerves.

But when I saw her pulling out a different tray instead of a cookie one, I knew something else was on her mind.

"What's on your mind?"

"What do you mean?" She asked, looking over at me.

"You grabbed our the brownie tray, you don't make brownies unless you're hiding something," I said and she blinked a few times before looking down at the tray in her hands.

"I can't tell you yet," she said and I nodded, deciding not to press the subject, knowing she'd come to me in her own time.

Sitting next to Tori, I shifted a little, the hard plastic chairs we were sitting in reminded me of the ones in school. Uncomfortable and always making my ass numb if I say still longer than a few minutes.

"Tori?" A voice called and Tori stood, grabbing my hand. We both made our way down the small hallway and entered a large room to see someone that looked familiar to me but I couldn't quite place his face.

"Hi, I'm Tori Vega-West," Tori said confidently. "I hope you don't mind, I brought my wife as a little confidence booster."

"Not a problem," the man said and smiled at us before handing a lady a sheet of paper. "Tori's wife..."

"Jade," Tori supplied for him and he nodded his thanks.

"Jade... West?" He looked down at a stack of paper in his hands. "Jade, you can come sit in one of these chairs," he said as he suddenly looked nervous as he pointed to a comfortable looking rolling chair at the end of the table.

Frowning a little, I kissed Tori's cheek, "you got this," I whispered to her before I made my way over to the chair and sat on it, crossing my legs as I watched the other woman hand Tori the paper who just grinned and nodded before handing the page back.

"You got it?" The woman asked, clearly confused.

"I know it," Tori said with another nod and the man just waved the girl back over.

"Alright Tori, you clearly have it, show us what you've got if you don't need the script read," the woman said with a sudden bitterness to her tone.

Tori's eyebrows shot up and she swallowed before chewing her lip nervously.

I could almost hear her counting down from five to calm herself.
