AN: I was stoked when I realized that a few had read my fanfic. Thank you very much! I was actually inspired by the amazing fanfics that I have read here. I have also had this story in my head for quite some time. I just thought it was really cute that Andre developed a crush on Jade, and I wondered how the story would go if Victorious was not a teen comedy show but a drama.
Here is the second part of the chapter. I hope you would enjoy it too. :)
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN VICTORIOUS. ALL CREDITS TO DAN SCHNEIDER.

ANDRE
The night was getting deep, but Andre was still wide awake. He just admitted to Tori this afternoon that he was in love with Jade, but he knew that it was wrong. He had promised his grandma, you know, before she went out of her mind, that he wouldn't be a bad person, and loving Jade would be bad because Jade was his best friend's girlfriend.
However, the more he was repressing his feelings, the more it was getting worse. His wonkiness almost got him when Beck and Jade asked him about the song. Jade wanted to hear the song that they recorded together.
"Via?" Jade asked, all confused, after Andre replied that he would just email it to her via the internet.
Beck scratched his head who was as confused as her, "Don't you think you guys should listen to the song together?"
Andre scrunched his nose and shook his head, "No. Why together? She could listen to it all by herself." he replied as he tried to get ahold of himself together.
"I didn't do anything!" He suddenly blurted out realizing that he was not making any sense.
"Okay. Email it to me," was all Jade's response. Bewilderment written all over her face, she walked away with Beck following behind while repeating, "Via the internet?"
"It's weird, right?" Tori and Andre heard Jade said as the couple continued walking towards the exit.
Andre was afraid that Beck and Jade might notice his wonkiness that's why he kept avoiding the two for the whole day.
The anxiety that Andre was feeling was getting intense as he could not take out of his mind the enthralling image of Jade who was pouring her heart and soul out while singing the song.
'Why couldn't you just get out of my mind already?' He thought as if berating Jade for overly staying in his head.
Andre couldn't take the doting emotions anymore. He just had to let the feelings out or else he would be wonky until heaven knows when. And there was no other best way to profess his feelings but through music. So, he got up from his bed, turned on the lights, went over his keyboard, and started playing some keys.
Monday, well Jade I fell for you
Tuesday, I wrote you this song
All Andre could think right now was that moment when Jade captivated every inch of his being as she sang the chorus of the most wonderful song he had ever heard.
Tori reminded him when he went to her house at 3 o'clock in the morning that Jade was a mean and vicious girl with deep psychological problems. But Tori did not just understand. She hadn't seen Jade the way he had. Although true that Jade enjoyed screaming at people and getting them scared, the Jade that he saw at that moment was far different from the Jade everybody had always seen - gentle, compassionate, delicate.
Wednesday, I wait outside your door
Even though I know it's wrong
He's very much aware that what he was feeling for Jade was not right, but he just couldn't lie to himself. He knew the feelings were wrong. But, was it really wrong? Was he really supposed to fight the romantic feeling he's having for her?
Seven days a week every hour of the month
Gotta let you know where my heart is coming from
Shouldn't feel this way, but I gotta say
Jade gotta let you know
His heart and his mind were now in a battle. Beck was his best friend. Jade was his close friend. Jade was Beck's girlfriend. He just couldn't come out and tell everyone that he had fallen in love with his best friend's girlfriend.
'I mean, that would be crazy, right?' He told himself. He was shaking his head as the thought of confessing whatever it was he was feeling for Jade crossed his mind.
I will try everything
To make you come closer to me
Jade 'til you believe
It's not just a phase
Tori thought that his feelings was only fleeting, that it might just disappear in a few weeks or even days, but he really didn't think so.
Andre was a hopeless romantic. He believed in love. He believed in fate. He believed that in a world full people, one person was destined for you.
What if Jade was the girl for him? What if fate allowed their paths to cross so that they could fall in love with each other and live life happily ever after?
What if in the world full of people, Jade was the one for him?
How can I get it through
You're the one I can't lose
'But she is Beck's girlfriend!' He said, reprimanding himself. How could he think of these things? He should stop this madness. It's not right. He just couldn't let himself fall in love with his best friend's girlfriend.
I'll try 365 days, 365 ways
To get to you
To get to you, you, you, you Jade
However, he wanted to know Jade more. He wanted to be closer to her than ever before. Andre had always believed that music could reveal the true personality of the person, that was why he was convinced that there was more a lot to Jade than meets the eye. Beck wouldn't be with her for over two years if she was just all angst and bitterness.
Every second, every tick-tick of the clock
I want you all to myself
Every second, every tick-tick of the clock
I just can't help myself
A lot of people were wondering why Beck kept on putting up with Jade's attitude. Even Andre had questioned it. However, everything was making sense now. He finally understood Beck.
Beyond the dark makeups and goth clothing was a beautiful soul who was not afraid to expose her vulnerability and individuality to someone she could trust. And he saw that. He was happy he saw that. But then he was no longer sure as his yearning for Jade was getting stronger in every hour of the day, in every minute of the hour, in every second of the minute, in every tick-tick of the clock.
Feeling kinda guilty, but girl I can't stop
I don't want nobody else, no one else, no one else
If what he was feeling was really wrong, then why couldn't he stop yearning for her touch, her gaze, her presence?
If what he was feeling was really wrong, then why couldn't he stop thinking of her face, her voice, her laughter?
If what he was feeling was really wrong, then why couldn't he stop wishing for her to be with him once again?
I will try everything
To make you come closer to me
I'll try 365 days, 365 ways
To get to you.
Would it be really wrong if he wanted to be with her more? He didn't know. He just didn't know.
Andre then let a deep sigh as he fidgeted the final keys. 'Beck is my best friend. Jade is my close friend. Jade is Beck's girlfriend. I just can't fall in love with her like this.' He kept on repeating this reality in his head.
Then he stopped thinking. He stared at his music sheet earnestly.
And then it hit him.
He had just fallen in love with his best friend's girlfriend.
He had fallen in love with Jade.

AN: This episode will have three parts. I was thinking of featuring 10 episodes for this book. I have rearranged the order of the episodes because I wanted to tell the story of Andre who had developed some feelings for Jade, and what will happen to Beck and Jade's relationship once the secret of Andre is revealed. :)
