~Time skip of 3 weeks~

Third-person POV:

Tory was in a dark room, it was Jade's room in the hotel, but everything was changed, darker than normal. She tried to get up, but there was something holding her ankle.

"Jade?" she called his girlfriend, there was no answer, "Jade!" she yelled more desperately. The chain burned her.

Suddenly, she heard a sob of pain, she turned to look, Jade was there, but unlike Tory, she was in a cage, her limbs chained, gagged, clearly she had been beaten, there was blood around her, she seemed to be in limbo between consciousness and unconsciousness. She was blindfolded, those eyes that used to say more than her lips. She looked too thin, as if she was dying slowly, her beautiful brown hair was totally dry, brittle and tangled.

"Jade!" she got up, but something was pulling her back to the ground, she fell hard on it, but nothing hurt more than seeing Jade.

"You should stop doing that," a deep voice said, becoming familiar.

"Who the fuck are you?" asked Tory.

"Do not you recognize me?" the voice asked, it was female, Tory had heard it, "we just met" she said.

"LaRusso?" she asked, obviously it wasn't her, her voice is high-pitched.

"No" she heard footsteps, she was getting closer, "are you scared, mi reina?"

Tory's heart stopped, that nickname, only one person has ever called her that, a chill runs through her body when she realizes it.

"Jade?" her voice sounded like a whisper, almost imperceptible.

"Correct" this doesn't make sense, Jade is in that cage, how can there be two of her? Tory thought.

"Why are there two like you?" she asked, she came closer. His eyes were black as night, the same color as they were today.

"There is always a constant fight between us" her voice gave her chills, "I took control this time" she laughed cynically.

"What did you do to Jade?" she asked, alarmed.

"I'm just indoctrinating her again" she replied, "she's turning into a soft bitch" she took her by the chin, her touch was cold, "I must remind her of the shitty life she's had" she started to walk away towards her caged counterpart.

"Jade, please" she begged, "don't do it" the chains prevented her from moving, "don't hurt her anymore"

She snorted, "oh Tory, how pathetic you look" her voice sounded as cold as ice, nothing compared to her angelic voice when they first met.

"Jade, you are not like that!" he yelled at her, but she just chuckled.

"On the contrary my dear Tory, I have always been like this" she approached Tory, "this is the real me"

Tory's eyes snapped open, and she began to hyperventilate, her shoulder starting to ache tremendously.

Tory's POV:

I woke up sweating, that dream seemed so real, damn my shoulder is bleeding, Jade bandaged it for me at the dojo, but I guess I moved too hard. I look at my phone, 4:25 A.M.

Fuck it hurts, Jade really knew where to attack, my arm feels useless, my phone starts to vibrate. And speaking of the king of Rome.

✨🖤Jade 🖤✨:

"Princess? Are you there?"

"Probably not, and I'm waking you up, damn it ..."

"Did you connect?"

"Shit, I did wake you up, forgive me"

Me:

"Don't worry, I was already awake"

✨🖤Jade 🖤✨:

"I thought that writing to you would make me get some sleep"

"Guilt is eating me alive, Tor"

"I know that cut must be hurting like hell."

Me:

"They have passed three weeks, Jade"

"But, I won't lie to you, it still hurts a lot"

"Do not worry about it"

✨🖤Jade 🖤✨:

"I feel like a shitty girlfriend"

"I just noticed the time, it's a nice coincidence"

Me:

"Why?"

✨🖤Jade 🖤✨:

"It's like it's my birthday in hours"

"April 27, BTW"

Me:

"Pretty close to the tournament"

✨🖤Jade 🖤✨:

"Unfortunately"

"Most likely, everyone is focused on the tournament and forgetting me"

Me:

"I will not do it"

✨🖤Jade 🖤✨:

"How is your bandage?"

Me:

"It got loose, I think I moved a lot"

✨🖤Jade 🖤✨:

"Will your neighbors be suspicious if a motorcycle parks in the middle of the morning?"

Me:

"What are you talking about?"

A soft touch on the front door scared me, I left my room more slowly, I opened the door and there was Jade, with her usual appearance, flannel shirt, leather jacket, tight black jeans, combat boots and her brown hair waved because of the wind. But a completely different smell reached my nose, not of coffee and wood, but of smoke and rain.

"Jade? What are you doing? It's four in the morning!" I yelled at her in a low voice.

"I know, I couldn't sleep, and I thought seeing you would help me a bit" he scratched the back of her neck and looked at me with her beautiful green eyes, they looked more aesthetic at night.

"And couldn't you video-call me?" I asked her, she chuckled.

"Actually, I was at the 7-Eleven" she shrugged, "and your cute little face looks better in person" she kissed me on the forehead.

"What were you doing at the 7-Eleven at four in the morning?" I looked directly at her.

"I had a craving for noodle soup" she scratched the back of her neck again, she was nervous.

"And couldn't you just order it at home?"

"Nobody brings you a delivery at four in the morning, Tor"

"I'm sure that for Jade Silver, that doesn't apply"

"I wanted to go for a ride and that's it"

Jade's POV:

Call me a liar, I don't care, I couldn't tell Tory I was at the 7-Eleven to buy some cigarettes because I already smoke the ones that were supposed to be for the week, or well, to convince some idiot to buy me some and pay him double for them.

(A / N: Don't smoke, guys, it's bad for your health)

I know I shouldn't do it, it kills you slowly, but it also feels so refreshing, with each drag one less worry is in your body. My mother used to do it, and she died from a totally different shit, so it shouldn't be that bad.

"Do you want me to put the bandage again?" I suggested to Tory, who was still looking at me suspiciously.

"Sure" she said and opened the door, so I could pass, "speak low" she whispered to me and I nodded.

We walked up to her room, and she closed the door. She handed me a first aid kit, although there was nothing to disinfect. I took off my jacket to have more mobility. We sat on her messy bed.

"Let me see" she nodded and took off her shirt, leaving her only in her black top, she looked beautiful. I took off the bandage and I could feel how she tensed when I took it off, I left her a little kiss there, I quickly took out some perfume from my pocket, it had alcohol and that would prevent her from getting infected, "princess, this is going to hurt you" I told her, and she nodded, I took a bit of cotton from the kit, sprinkled it on the cotton and rubbed it gently, Tory tensed, I'm sure it was from the pain. I put a new bandage.

"Jade..." she told me softly.

"Yes?" I answered.

"Your hand..." she told me, in an almost imperceptible sigh.

My hand? Where? Damn, my other hand was very close to her chest, I thought I had it in her back, shit.

"Excuse me, I didn't notice" I laughed embarrassed.

"It actually felt good ..." she murmured, her cheeks were flushed, they had a beautiful crimson color that matched the color of her lips.

"Forgive me, I swear it was never my intention..." a pair of lips silenced me, it was a passionate kiss, her tongue begged to enter my mouth, I gave her access, and she kissed me like she had never done before. I caressed her face, while our tongues fought for control of such a heated kiss.

My body involuntarily begins to pounce slowly towards Tory, I was careful not to do it abruptly so as not to hurt her, I began to slowly kiss her neck, my lips made her head go back, leaving me more space to plant delicate, but passionate kisses, I listened how she tried to suppress her moans.

"Jade..." she spoke my name between gasps of pleasure, she began to unbutton my shirt, then I realized something.

We were in her apartment, her brother and mother were sleeping just a few feet from Tory's room, and it must have been around five in the morning.

She's lying to you, you idiot. 

Do you want to shut up, stupid? 

You know it's true, just like Derek and Catherine did.

Shut up, I don't need your judgments now, she's different. 

She is? Or did love just blind you?

"Tory" I stopped her hand, she looked at me confused, we had never been so close to doing it, "we can't have sex right now" I said, trying to use the sweetest voice possible.

"But I want you Jade, right now" she said in a husky voice, "I want to claim you as mine"

"You have no idea how much I want you" I kissed her shortly, "your family is here, it's not a good idea" I caressed her face. I'm sure there was a confused expression on my face.

"Okay" she sighed heavily, "but promise me that it will happen"

"Of course it will happen" I kissed her knuckles, they were a bit of hurt, "it's still too early" I put a golden lock behind her ear, "I want it to be special" I caressed her face and got out of bed. I started to fix my clothes.

"Where are you going?" Tory asked me.

"Home, in a few hours we have school" I replied.

"Oh" she said a little disappointed.

"Don't worry, we'll see in a few hours," I said, and left the apartment as quickly but quietly.

I sighed heavily, I literally ran away from her, I ran away like a coward, all because I'm not stupid, all because I have to notice those little things, all because I analyze every move a person makes, and I regret doing it, because I know when someone lies to me, and Tory is doing it, she doesn't trust me to tell me the truth.

Jade, open your damn eyes, or you'll get hurt.

Tory's POV:

Did I seem desperate to want to have sex with Jade? Yes, I did. We've been dating for like almost four weeks and I already wanted to have her in my bed, damn it. And the worst thing is that I didn't even hesitate to do it, she touched me and I was already tearing her clothes in my head. Shit, I must have looked like a whore.

Yesterday she had a fucking mental breakdown, and being the best girlfriend in the world I comforted her by trying to force her to sleep with me, I'm not like that. I ended up in bed with Miguel the same day, but it was because he insisted, he said he had never done it with Sam, and I wanted to have that opportunity before. I wanted to beat the cute little princess.

Okay, that sounded fucking slutty. I feel too much carnal desire for Jade, it is as if I see her and want to make her mine every two seconds, it is a tremendous obsession to know her thoroughly.

Today when she touched me, it was such a soft and loving touch, it was warm, not like in the dream I had, in which it was cold as ice. The love she reflected as she healed me, her lips on my neck, I think about it and a chill runs through my body, I go to the mirror in my room, there were little red marks, I looked back and Jade had left her jacket hanging on a chair, I guess that in the rush she forgot it. I pick it up and something falls out of it's pocket, a black lighter, that wasn't there a few weeks ago when Jade lent me her jacket, and I'm sure it was the same one. What would Jade have a lighter for?

Maybe I should go to sleep, I'll think better of it in a few hours, I hope to sleep better now.

Jade's POV:

Shit, shit, shit, where the fuck I left it? My fucking lighter, that shit was from Meredith, it's not like I feel bad for losing it, but that damn lighter was the only good thing that she 'gave' me, actually I may have stole it when I didn't wanted to go to the boarding school, and I had it because I thought that one day, she will notice it and come back to my life and we will be a happy family. Dammit, I was hopeful.

That it's not the point, the point it's that I need a fucking cigarette, and I don't have the fucking lighter to fucking light the fucking cigarette.

You promised to not cuss again, remember?

That was a fucking stupid promise, BTW, I'm cussing in my mind, you douchebag!

Shit, my jacket. SHIT, MY JACKET. SHIT, MY JACKET.

I left it at Tory's, dammit the lighter was in there, now she will suspect of me.

It's not like she can talk about honesty, right?

Shut the fuck up, conscience, or I am killing myself to not hear you anymore.

Cool, take the easy way, easy girl.

Count to ten, count to a hundred, count to a billion. 

I can't deal with you now.

Am I really having a fight with my conscience?

Looks like that.

Think of a damn excuse, and think of a way to calm down that doesn't involve nicotine. Caffeine, a coffee, that could help.

Nothing can help you, you are the same idiot that you were 2 years ago.

"Shut the fuck up!" I scream, I was supposed to say that in my mind.

I need the coffee, now.

Why don't you just go and buy a new fucking lighter?

First time you say something smart, bad thing it's that they don't sell lighters around here, and I'm not planning on going to Tory's house to go for mine.

Face it, Jade. You don't wanna see her. 

No, I don't fucking want to. Are you happy?

And now you don't answer? Such a bitch.

~Time skip 2 hours~

Tory's POV:

I woke up, I had a dream about Jade, but this wasn't a nightmare, it was a GOOD dream, bad thing, now I am horny, and thinking about her doing what she did in my dream...

God, that's it, without more sexual thoughts about Jade for the rest of the day.

I hear a knock in my door.

"Come in!" I yell as I cover myself with the blankets, they had Jade's perfume all over them, dude I'm losing my mind.

My brother entered, "woah, Tory, your room smells incredible!" I know, it smells like my girlfriend.

"Thanks?" I answer to him.

"Mom wants to talk with you" he told me, "there is a big package in the front door"

"Wait, what?" I got up from bed and started walking to the front door, I opened it and there was a big package, like the ones the last weeks, signed with a T and an S, really sensei? Couldn't he be more discrete? I thought he learned.

I put the package in the living room, everything was in there, and also there was a note that said that the nurse will come by 10 AM like always, great, everything it's okay. I sighed and knocked on my mom's door, she told me to enter.

"Why did Jade came by the early morning, Tory?" she asked, straight to the point.

"She-she" I scratched the back of my neck, "she came to help me with the bandage in my shoulder" I told her the truth.

"The bandage in your shoulder?" she asked.

"Yeah, I got hurt in the dojo a few weeks ago, and I asked her for help" it was kinda true.

"So, you made her travel all the city to help you with that?" she asked me.

"Actually, she was by the 7-Eleven buying some noodle soup" I answered.

"Tory, she could've made an excuse, so you didn't felt bad, maybe you woke her up" she told me.

"She is totally capable of that" I sighed, "but, she was out of her house at that moment"

"What could she been possibly doing at that hour?" she asked, having a confused face.

"I don't know mom," I sighed.

"She is your girlfriend, you shouldn't keep any secrets from each other" she told me, it was the wiser words I've ever heard.

"Yeah, I suppose" I thought about that, "mom, I need to tell you something, but promise that you won't tell anybody" I sat on the bed.

"Tell me, sweetheart"

"I'm dating her for money," I said, she opened her eyes wide, "Sensei SIlver told me that if I dated her, he will pay for the rent, the groceries, a nurse for you and that I will return to school" she had an amazed expression.

"Are you using her?" she asked, a little sad.

"In a strange way" I answered.

"Does she know?"

"No, and she can't" I sighed, "she already has other problems"

"What kind of problems?" mental ones?

"Celebrity problems" I answered, it was half true.

"Poor girl" she sighed, "and she thinks that you have feelings for her"

"I do" this was complicated, "but," I stopped.

"But, what?"

"I don't know" I got up from the bed, "please mom, I trust you and that's why I told you this"

"Don't worry, darling" she looked at me, "don't play with her heart" I nodded and close the door.

Should I tell her the truth? But, how she will react?

Author's note:

You realized that Jade cussed A LOT? Even when her conscience remind her that she made a promise? That's because I wanted to reflect how emotionally instable she is now, and dang, my poor girl it's out of her mind.

Did you watch the trailer? It was awesome! I still don't get why Tory was dressed like that...
