Play back!

Things you might have missed between Tori and Beck.

Chapter 1: Episode 1

During the first episode and our first ever encounter between the REAL couple, no, not Tori and Andre (Just friends in my opinion) Not not Cat and Beck (Weird?) Or Cat and Jade/Trina (Which I am seeing WAY too many of those for comfort) but Tori and Beck.

Cute or cute?

Okay back to the beginning. During the first episode and our first ever encounter with our couple, notice when Tori is rubbing the coffee off of Beck. Is... is that an admiring smile? You know the one, where he's looking into your eyes and you just want to kiss him because he is looking at you like you are the only one there? Yeah, that one.

Rewind. When he is muttering things about it not coming out. Listen closely. Did I hear a "You're very sweet" ? Why yes, yes I did. Sure, it might have been just a polite thing to say, but I say it still counts... and not just because I absolutely love this couple... well maybe just a little.

Fast forward. This little detail after Jade walks in is almost hard to find. But then again, I did say ALMOST didn't I? Check it. Jade walks in and asks "Dude, why are you rubbing my boyfriend?" Now, RIGHT when she says that, look at Beck. He looks up and forward, almost as if he is snapping out of something. Are Tori's eye that easy to get lost in?

Hmm. While you ponder that, I will continue. Sikowitz. When he barges in crying wolf, catch that small glimpse of Beck in the background. Let me repeat, small glimpse. It moves by fairly quick so you have to pay attention. Okay. Sikowitz is barging, he's screaming, Beck places his hand on Jade's back, leading her to the door aaaaaaaaaand NOW! Pause. He looks back. I paused this frame and it seems as if he was looking at Tori. Checking to see if she is okay? Or maybe he just wishes that his arm was around her instead? We shall never know what was going on in our beloved fictitious character's mind.

Now. During improv after Tori is rudely called a dog and epically fails at being a dog, Jade calls her and amateur and look at Beck's face. He is looking at Jade like he wants to tell her off. That squinty eyed 'what the hell' look everyone knows and possibly uses. Now let's press the play button again. This is just getting good! What about that crack about the "dog" sleeping in Beck and Jade's room?

Cute huh?

What I don't get is why no one tried to help? Well besides Beck's failed stutter attack. Everyone else just stands (or sits) there watching. I mean, if someone was about to do that to one of my friends, and I knew they were going to do that (obviously everyone knew what she was going to do) then I would jump up on stage and grab the cup from her hand, yell a little, the coffee might just slip and Jade's shirt might get a new pattern.

Catch my drift?

Back to the school, after Tori leaves, everyone goes out into the hall to get her back in class, more people come out to get them back in class and Tori still leaves, we get something really good. (And by that I don't mean the end of this chapter, though that is coming soon too ;P)

Kay, now this one is pretty hard to miss considering the fact that the camera actually did a close up on his face. In this close up he smiles and, though the rest of the class as turned their attention back onto the teacher, he doesn't quite look back right away. He looks at her with everyone else but then smiles and looks at the ground as if thinking of something. Okay I can't resist this comment: isn't Beck just so dang CUTE? Ugh :)

Anyway, back to improv. Jade kisses Beck to make Tori jealous. What's the point if Tori and Beck don't like each other? Tip off right there that there is something going on. Oh gosh I feel like Robarazzi or whatever his team of Rob-paparazzi is called. Anyway, when Jade pulls away, notice Beck's face, first, confusion (let me tell you, this guy is a good actor) then the next is... wait! Is that shame crossing his face? Or... or maybe regret? For thinking about Tori too much perhaps?

And look at poor Tori's face! Is that hurt? Awe. Poor Tori! Don't worry, he likes you too! The eliminations are always fun. For instance:

"Totally!"

"Ah! Your word had to start with an 's'."

"Salami!"

"It's too late Cat."

"Awe! My life's the worst!"

"Here's a piece of candy."

"Yay! I love candy!"

-or-

"Zap! I just healed your toe with my magic finger!"

"Thanks!"

"Ah! Andre your line had to start with the letter A, siddown!"

"Awe! And I just got my toe bone fixed!"

Yep, purdy funny stuff right there :D Anyway, back (once again) to the improv session. This is probably one of my favorite parts in the whole of the 7 shows right about now. So, after the 'alien' faints and Jade and Tori start bickering back and forth you can't see Beck, but I guarantee you that he is probably laughing, or trying his best not to.

So, nearing the end of this chapter and the first episode, we get the best part. Beck the Alien gets up from his comfy spot on the ground and, as Tori helps him nicely to his feet, he states that he is dizzy and Tori claims that she knows what will help. Granted, she did it to make Jade mad but we can all say that she enjoyed it as well. Cool, she hit two stones with one bird! :D

Beck smirks when she says that she know what will help and he humorously adds "Jumping Jacks?" waiting to see what she will say. For our entertainment she replies "kiss me" and when they are leaning in right before he kisses her... CAN YOU SEE THE SMILE ON HIS FACE? Well... it's there. Also, watch when they end the kiss. TORI pulls away first and... what? Is Beck stunned? I- I think he is! His hand that was previously holding Tori's head closer to him is still curled as if holding her close. Also he kind of wobbles back instead of steps and squishes his lips together while running a hand through his hair as if stunned.

Yep. If that doesn't scream 'I just might really really like her' then I don't know what does. And sadly that is the end of the episode and therefore the end of this chapter. Sadly I must go until next chapter but don't worry! I shall be back! :D
