Hollywood Art's Senior Journey

II.

The school day had come to an end, everyone parting their own ways even though they'd already all end up back together once again. A little after three they all arrived at Tori's.

Tori heard a knock.

"Let's play." Jade said sternly with Beck smiling happily.

"Yeah, okay. Fine." Tori replied as she looked at the two of them. "Everyone's now here." Tori added, looking back at the rest who were sitting.

When everyone got seated and made small talk, Andre was handling the cards.

"Does anyone have any clue what they're going to be writing their script about?" Andre asked his friends, his mind running all the possibilities for himself.

"No," Jade and Tori replied during the same exact second while the rest shook their head.

"What script?" Trina interrupted, walking down the steps as that is what drew her interested in the conversation.

"Nobody likes you." Jade said instantly.

"Trina, nothing." Tori told her.

"Nothing my butt." Trina replied, annoyed at Jade's irritating comments and the fact that her sister was obviously hiding something. "Whatever. Like any of you would be picked." She scoffed and walked back into her room, up the stairs.

"Does she not remember that she has zero talent?" Jade asked, raising her eyebrow with a small smile.

Tori rolled her eyes and shook her head. The next two hours they all played different sorts of card games and placed such childish bets between one another. Soon they all got some announcements on their phone.

"Ding! Beep! Buzz!" Their phones went.

Cat quickly gasped, looking down at her phone oike the rest of them.

What appeared on the phone was the principal, giving some sort of important speech. It drew all of them in at least.

"Good afternoon Hollywood Arts. This is your principal speaking, obviously.." He chuckled into the camera, "Anyways.. we've decided to have a competition. Over one of your best scripts. It'd be played in the black box theater with actors and actresses of your choice. Obviously from your classes or other students around Hollywood Arts. Keep it appropriate please and have a good day. Scripts handed in by Friday, thanks!" The video finally shut off as Tori placed her phone back down and looked over at them all.

"Maybe we could all do something together?" Tori suggested.

"That wouldn't work. There is six of us. It'd be too much." Andre responded while Robbie shook his head and agreed.

"Let's just all come up with our own ideas, if we win, we win. If we don't, oh well." Jade suggested without any rude input. Which was surprising.

"Or turn in any old confident work." Beck said to them all.

"I'm going to make my script based on—" Cat was interrupted.

"The elephant that learns to love? Yeah Cat you mentioned that plenty of times already." Robbie said as Cat then looked sad. 

HOURS LATER THAT NIGHT

Tori was trying to list all the possible ideas she could write about during this competition that would give her a high chance of succeeding. She was out of so much hope. Her brain was completely empty.

Jade's POV
"Hmm.." Scrolling down on her computer, going into her files as she roamed. She was looking for great ideas she once written about throughout the years of her school. She texted Beck, seeing if her was awake.

"Hey babe. Are you up?" She sent the text.

Within five minutes later, he responded. "Yeah, i'm up. Why are you?"

"Just trying to figure out what i'm going to do." She sent back immediately.

"Maybe turn in the script based on the witch who had an evil obsession with red heads. Cat could definitely star in that." He sent the text.

When she got it, she instantly began to smile. Smirking down at her phone before she placed it on her nightstand and went underneath her black, fluffy blanket.

THE NEXT DAY

The bells rang, class was starting. Sikowtiz looked around at all his students with a big smile on his face.

"What's with the smile?" Jade asked what the rest were too hesitant to ask.

"Have any of you submitted your work?" He asked.

Jade nodded as the rest of the core members looked over at her. Beck instantly knew and smiled to himself.

Beck's POV
Throughout high school, Jade and I have hit some
major milestones. Finally, senior year is when we really didn't argue as much. She was most definitely my girl. I've always known that but it still felt good saying it now and then. Really glad we aren't as toxic as we use to be, I wouldn't want anyone else. Her crazy, well, it matches what I want.

The whole class shared their ideas. Robbie decided to not get involved.. somehow Rex convinced him not to. Robbie obviously listened. Beck and Andre decided to pair up and write about something in the category of adventure. Tori spoke up and talked about her romantic, fantasy princess script she was extremely confident while Jade made some sort of
snarky comment. And we all knew Cat's decision.
