Chapter 9: Survival of the Hottest

(Y/N's POV)

Well, a heat wave just came into LA, and Robbie, Beck, Tori, and I are just melting out asses off. Because it is so hot today, I regret my outfit of the day because it consists of a jacket, but luckily I am wearing jean shorts to counteract this.

"Now I know how the Wicked Witch of the West feels like, "OH, I'M MELTING! OH WHAT A WORLD, WHAT A WORLD!"" I imitate the voice, making the others laugh momentarily before we go back to withstanding the scalding temperatures.

"Robbie, what's the temperature now?" Tori asks the puppeteer, and he takes out his pear pad.

"Well according to my pear pad...here in Hollywood it is 103 degrees." As soon as we hear that number, we all groan in discomfort.

"My hair is getting so dry, and I didn't even dye it recently!" I complain, flapping my shirt back and forth to get some air blowing on my chest.

"My arms feel like warm, wet ham." Tori says making Beck and I laugh at the comparison. Then Cat walks up to us, still looking like she's in a good mood as she goes to hug me, but I flail my arms about like a madman to prevent her from hugging me, but she manages to make do and hug me, only adding to the ridiculous heatwave.

"Cat, please let go! I am starting to feel like melted ice cream, and if you don't let go right now, I am going to become nothing but a puddle when you're done hugging me!" She lets go soon after but keeps her smile on my face.

"I'm really hot, but I'm still in a good mood." She says to us, making me sigh at her positivity before she takes a seat between Robbie and I.

"Y'know what, fuck this!" I say, having enough of this heatwave. I stand up from my chair and unzip my jacket to reveal that I have worn nothing underneath the jacket. My bare upper body can be seen by the gang, causing them to blush uncontrollably from my sudden gesture. I let the jacket loosely hang off my shoulders like those Japanese coats when it is during the cold climates, what are they called...Gakurans, I think that's the word. Oh well, let's just say that I hang them off my shoulder like that, tying the strings in a knot to prevent it from falling off.

"There, much better." I says as I grab a bottle of water, uncap it, but before I can even take a sip of it, Jade sits in an empty spot of the table and notices my shirtless form, causing her to blush momentarily before she goes back to regular Jade.

"You done with that water, Y/N?" She asks me, but I just drink about half of the bottle and cap it closed before I set it down in front of Jade.

"Do you still want that~?" I ask with a smirk, and I see her eyes widen momentarily. They fall back down as she look at the bottle and shrugs, uncapping the bottle and taking the last half of the bottle, lipping it too, now I know how Andre felt when I did that to him... Then, I see Tori look at Jade with disbelief, causing the latter to look at her with annoyance after finishing the water bottle.

"What?" Jade asks with some venom in her voice before Tori states what she us seeing right before her very eyes.

"You're not sweating." She then starts to feel up and down Jade's upper body and face, much to the annoyance of the one being touched by Tori.

"Tori, some people just don't sweat." I point out to her.

"Everyone sweats." Tori argues, but the others say otherwise, until Beck turns to me with the same look Tori had on Jade.

"You're not sweating too." He states before he feels my upper body, his hands touching my skin, making a shiver run down my spine. "You really are not sweating."

"I've gotten used to the hot weather, but I still hate heatwaves a lot. I usually just stay inside and turn on some air conditioning the whole day." I tell them, and the sigh in satisfaction from just imagining being in a room with an air conditioner right now.
