A/N: Hey guys, new Jaubrey story for you all!

I haven't forgot about Winners Vacation the sequel, just need some ideas before I get writing.

Well I hope you enjoy this :)

"Congratulations Miss Posen, the job is yours! We will send you some information in the post soon. Enjoy your summer break and we will see you in September!"

"Thank you so much! I cannot wait to start! Have a good break too. Thank you again!" Aubrey hung up the phone and jumped around screaming with excitement.

Aubrey unlocked her phone and dialled a familiar number. Four rings later and there was an answer.

"I got the job! I only went and got the job!" She shouted down the phone in enjoyment.

"Well done Bree! I knew you could do it! What did I tell you!?"

"Thanks Jesse!"

Jesse and Aubrey had become very good friends after leaving Barden. The Trebles and the Bellas integrated and began to hang out as one big group, keeping the rivalry there still. Jesse had a tough time at home over the summer break, after leaving Barden, and Aubrey was the one who was there. She helped him through the loss of his Grandad and from then on they have been best friends.

"I am so happy for you! I have some news also, so how about we get everyone together and celebrate?" Jesse questioned.

"Sounds good Jess!"

"I'll text you the times and place later on. See you later. Oh and well done again!" Jesse hung up the phone and stared into space for a few seconds, smiling at that fact that his best friend just got her dream job, but then realising he has to break some news to her.

Once the call ended, Aubrey dialled another familiar number, Chloe. Her other best friend. She sat down on her couch, knowing this was going to be a long conversation.

Aubrey turned up to the Lancer dead on 9pm, straightening out her dress as she stood staring at the entrance. 'I have some news also' kept going round in her head as her heart started to beat faster as she walked into the bar.

She spotted Jesse twiddling his thumbs in a booth.

"Jesse!" She called out a she looked up at her. A smile formed on his face seeing her approach him.

"May I say how amazing you look tonight Miss Posen!?" Jesse complimented her, pulling her in for a hug.

"I have got you vodka Cran; we have to start the celebrations!"

Aubrey chuckled before looking around the bar.

"Where is everyone else Jess? I thought you said they are all going to be here?" She questioned with a sadden look upon her face.

"I told them to be here at half nine" He responded. His face expression had changed from his massive dorky grin to a worried yet sad look. Aubrey leaned forward closer to him over the table.

"Why Jess?" She whispered, trying to get him to look at her but he was more interested in staring at his hands. He sighed heavy and looked at Aubrey.

"I need to talk to you first. Alone." He said looking back at his hands.

"Jesse? What's going on?" Aubrey spoke softly, moving the drinks that were sitting in front of them to find his hands. She gently placed her hands on top of his rubbing her fingers on the back of his hands. There was a moment of silence, but Aubrey didn't want to push him.

"I'm going to Afghan!" He said, looking back up at Aubrey. She didn't know what to say, her face must have said it all. She squeezed his hands tighter, not breaking their eye contact.

Jesse had joined the army part time, as a volunteer after they had left Barden. He worked part time hours at the music shop and the rest was courses and training for the army. When he signed up he knew that this would be a possibility that he would have to go out there, but it was a 1 in 10 chance. The statistics were low for a volunteer.

"When do you go?" Aubrey finally spoke.

"The second week in September" He sighed. "I don't know why I am acting like this, I knew it would be a possibility, but then again I didn't think I would be that 1 person or for it to happen so soon. I suppose you don't know what to expect until the time comes?!" He laid his head on the table.

Aubrey moved to Jesse's side of the booth so she was sitting next to him. She gently lifted his head up off the table and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling herself closer to him. In return, he placed his head on her shoulder and enclosed the gap between them by putting his arms tightly around her small waist.

"So you go in September, that's when I start my new job. So how about the summer break we spend it together. Do something new every week, visit places we have never been before and spend it with the people that mean the most to you?! It will be like a goodbye send off?" Aubrey suggested, still embraced in her hug with Jesse.

"Sounds lovely Bree" he whispered in her ear.

Neither attempted to move apart from the hug they shared. Tears started to form in Aubrey's eyes. She was glad that Jesse couldn't see her right now. She needed to hold it together; she needed to be strong for both of them.

"Hey Jesse, it's nearly half nine, shall we straightened up before the others arrive?" Aubrey nudged him. He simply nodded and looked at his best friend.

"Here" Jesse said, lifting his thumb to her face, removing the tiny bit of mascara that had run.

"All better. You really need to get some waterproof mascara Bree!" They laughed in unison.

People had come and gone to celebrate Aubrey getting her new job. Jesse hadn't told anyone else about his tour, he didn't want to ruin Aubrey's night. Throughout the evening, Aubrey would catch Jesse's eye, he would give her a little smile and a wink. That was their thing.

"Looks like we are the last ones" Beca pointed out.

Aubrey, Jesse, Beca and a sleeping Chloe were the last ones standing. Well in this case they were sitting in the booth.

"I'm going to take sleeping beauty home if you don't mind?" Beca questioned trying to get some life out of Chloe.

"Carry on Beca; I'm going to take this lad home anyway. He's drunk far too much tonight, haven't you Jess?!" Aubrey teased.

"Right Chloe, let's go. Hey and well don again Aubrey!"

"Wait!" Chloe shouted as she run over to Aubrey who was now standing.

"I love you Aubrey, well done on the job front. You'll be a great teacher." Chloe spoke drunkenly as she wrapped herself around Aubrey.

"I love you too Chloe, thanks. Now go home and sleep all that alcohol off!" Aubrey chuckled as she watched her walk back to Beca and link hands.

Now Swanson, cab is outside. It is time to get you home.

"You're not making this any easier Jesse." Aubrey huffed as she searched his pockets for his door key.

"It is in my back pocket!"

Finally after finding his apartment key, Aubrey got Jesse settled and into bed. She placed a bucket by the side of his bed and made sure he had a glass of water on his bedside table.

"Ok Jesse, I'm going to go home, you are all settled in. Now you call me if you need anything, right?"

"Aubrey?" Jesse whimpered.

"Will you stay here tonight with me please?"

Aubrey smiled at him, before answering.

"Yeah I will, let me borrow some clothes then?"

"T-shirts are in the wardrobe and boxers are in the top drawer." He said pointing in the direction of where the clothes were located.

Aubrey picked the clothes and run to his en-suit to get changed. She came out in one of Jesse's t-shirts which swamped her tiny frame. She gently placed her folded dress on the chair and tucked her heels underneath it.

"I'll take the blankets from the lounge and sleep on the couch. I'll just be next door, shout if you need me!"

"Bree?!" Jesse spoke softly, but loud enough for Aubrey to hear.

Aubrey spun round on her heels to see that Jesse had moved over and pulled back the duvet back on the empty space on the bed.

"Stay with me Bree?" he pleaded. "We're best friends, nothing is going to happen. I just need someone right now, I need you!"

Nothing more needed to be said. Aubrey slowly walked over to the bed and got in, pulling the duvet up as she laid down. She repositioned herself so she was facing Jesse, propping herself up on her elbow.

"Thank you for the celebration party tonight. I enjoyed it. And I cannot wait for our summer together! We have so much to do" Aubrey yawned.

"Hey, anything for my bestie" He winked.

"Let's not ignore that fact that I'm going on tour, but I'm not ready to tell everyone yet. So it is our secret for the time being. Pinkie promise?"

"Pinkie promise" She repeated as they linked their little fingers together.

Aubrey snuggled down in the bed tucking the duvet up to her chin. Once she was settled, Jesse kissed the top of her head.

"Thank you for everything Aubs"
