Tori Vega had always believed herself to be good at reading people, and recently she had noticed something weird about Jade

It all started during lunch when Beck wasn’t there. He’d called in sick that morning, Tori had half-expected Jade to sulk in the corner, growling at anyone who dared approach, but instead, during a class she saw Jade quietly texting someone, a small, almost imperceptible smile playing on her lips. And then there was Y/N.

Y/N had been friends with Jade since childhood, a fact Tori had only recently learned. It is not that Tori didn’t knew him, He tend to hang out with them quite often, but  He was the kind of guy who preferred to stay under the radar, but then he was sitting with Jade, a bit too close Tori found it odd, but she didn’t think much of it until later that afternoon.

It was during a lull in her day that Tori saw it: Jade and Y/N walking off together. she spotted them slipping out the side door of Hollywood Arts. Jade glanced over her shoulder, her fingers brushing against Y/N’s arm before they disappeared around the corner.

“Okay, that’s weird,” Tori murmured to herself.

Her curiosity got the better of her. After all, Jade and Y/N had always seemed close, but not that close. And with Beck out of the picture for the day, Tori couldn’t help but wonder what they were up to. She followed at a safe distance

They walked down the street, talking in a way that seemed far too casual for Jade. She seemed Relaxed. Even... affectionate? Tori’s eyes widened as she saw Jade playfully shove Y/N, a smirk tugging at her lips.

“No way,” Tori whispered. “She’s not... cheating on Beck, is she?”

Her heart pounded as she continued to follow them. She needed proof before she said anything. This was Beck and Jade’s relationship on the line, and she wasn’t about to jump to conclusions. Still, the way Jade and Y/N were acting set off all kinds of alarms in her head.

By the time they reached Y/n’s house, Tori’s mind was racing. She couldn’t see much from where she was, looking around she notice an old tree house near a window, she probably shouldn’t do it, but curiosity got the best of her, so she climbed it from inside there she had a clear view of what she assumed was Y/n’s room, her phone clutched tightly in her hand. She needed backup.

“Andre I need your help” she hissed into the phone after Calling Andre. “I think Jade is cheating on Beck.”

“What? Tori, are you serious?” Andre’s voice crackled through the speaker.

“I’m outside Y/n’s house right now. She’s with Y/N. They’ve been sneaking around all afternoon.”

“Alright, we’re coming,” Andre said, his tone serious. “Don’t do anything until we get there.”

Within ten minutes, the rest of the group had arrived. They all silently climbed into the three house, peeping through the window to catch a glimpse of what was happening inside. Jade and Y/N were in his room, they were sitting on his bed and to everyone’s shock, Jade leaned in and kissed him.

“Oh my God,” Cat whispered, her eyes wide.

“I can’t believe this,” Robbie said

“We have to do something” Tori said, her voice low but determined. “This isn’t right. Beck deserves to know.”

While they discussed on what to do Beck walked in, looking pale but otherwise fine. The group froze, they half expected him to start screaming or to confront them, but Jade and Y/N greeted Beck warmly. And then, to the group’s utter disbelief, Beck kissed Jade... and then Y/N.

“What the...” Andre whispered.

The group watched in stunned silence as the three of them sat down on the bed and start making out. Tori’s mind raced as she tried to make sense of what she was seeing.

“Are they... all together?” Robbie asked, voicing what everyone was thinking.

“It looks like it,” Andre answered, they keep watching out of shock, they didn’t expect that, and soon stared wondering for how long this had been going on, however as thing started to escalate inside the room, Tori was the first to react

Tori shook her head. “We should leave” the others agreed with her, not really wanting to see what was happening

“do we? I mean we could-“ Rex started talking but Robbie was quick to shut him up, as Andre was going to step down the latter it fell down leaving them trapped, and if it wasn’t bad enough it was loud enough to alert those inside the room

The window opened revealing a very angry looking Jade “What Are you doing here?” she ask her tone ice cold, she glaring daggers at them, with both boys behind her, Beck looked confused, and Y/n had his arms crossed

Tori hesitated, suddenly unsure of what to say. “We, uh... we saw you guys through the window.”

“Why?” Y/n asked

“well, I saw you and Jade sneaking out” Tori said, her voice faltering. “and well We may have thought she may be cheating on Beck with You?” Y/n couldn’t help but laugh, he couldn’t blame them for thinking that, but he found the situation funny, the same couldn’t be said of Jade and Beck, Jade just seemed even more angry and beck was still as confused

“you thought I was cheating on my Boyfriend with our Boyfriend, how stupid are you?” she was clearly pissed, not only because they interrupted her but because of the accusations, however Beck was first to intervene, he gently pushed Jade towards Y/n arms, and looked at their friends

“you guys didn’t know we are dating?” he ask, as if their situation was obvious

“uh no” Answered Andre,

Beck, still calmer than anyone expected. "well, Jade, Y/N, and I have been together for a while now. We thought you guys knew."

Andre blinked, looking between the three of them. "but then why all the secrecy and and the sneaking around."

Y/N chuckled, his hands resting lightly on Jade’s shoulders trying to calm her. "We weren’t exactly sneaking, Andre. And neither have we been secretly, we have been very openly about it as far as I can remember”

"Wait, so how long has this been going on?" Robbie asked, still holding Rex mouth shut.

"About a year now," Beck replied casually, shrugging. "We’ve been figuring things out since Jade and I realized we both had feelings for Y/N. It wasn’t easy at first, but..." He glanced at Jade and Y/N with a small, genuine smile. "It works for us."

Cat tilted her head, her expression wide-eyed and curious. "But... how does it work? Like, do you all kiss each other? Or—"

"Cat," Jade snapped, her tone sharp though her cheeks flushed slightly. "That’s none of your business."

"But it’s cool, though!" Cat quickly added, her hands waving in front of her. "I mean, as long as you’re all happy!"

Tori shook her head, still overwhelmed. "I guess I just don’t get why you didn’t tell us."

"Maybe because it’s not something we owe anyone," Jade shot back, her glare unwavering. "And honestly, we didn’t think it was that complicated. I thought you guys were supposed to be smart and had figure it out, I have been making out with both of them all over Hollywood arts."

Andre raised his hands defensively. "Hey, no judgment here. We were just... surprised, that’s all. We didn’t mean to barge in on your business."

"Yeah," Robbie added nervously. "We only followed you because, well... Tori kind of thought you were cheating, and..."

Cat’s interrupted Robbie "um, can we maybe talk about this somewhere not in a treehouse? I’m kind of scared of heights."

Andre started down the ladder "Uh, yeah... About that..."

Beck raised an eyebrow. "Wait, you’re stuck up there?"

"Yeah, the ladder broke," Andre admitted sheepishly.

Jade’s eyes narrowed dangerously, a wicked smile tugging at her lips. "So, let me get this straight. You spied on us, invaded our privacy, and now you want us to help you?"

"Jade," Beck said softly, though he couldn’t entirely hide his amusement.

Jade turned to him and Y/N. "You know, we do have those plans, remember? We’re running late now thanks to this little... treehouse party."

Y/N caught on quickly, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "Oh, right. Those plans. Very important."

Beck sighed, though there was a hint of a smirk on his lips. "Guys, you’re not seriously leaving them up there, are you?"

"Why not?" Jade shot back. "They can reflect on how stupid this was while we’re out."

"Jade!" Tori called after her as she began walking away, dragging Y/N and Beck by their hands. "You can’t just leave us here!"

But as you evolve, don’t forget the core of who you are. Don’t lose the things that make you feel alive. If you love sex,passion, conversation, good food, writing, laughter—hold onto those pieces of yourself. Those are the roots that keep you grounded.

Change doesn’t mean abandoning yourself. It means growing through experience while still honoring what makes you you. Elevate, transform, learn—but keep the essence of your spirit intact."
