Beca braced herself as she felt Luke gently push her back into the couch.
This was it she thought her first kiss with Luke and her first time with a guy.
This surely wasn't what she thought she was going to be doing after school, it also wasn't what she wanted but this was Luke Bowers, the hottest and coolest guy at school, he wanted her so she would let him.
Beca felt Luke's lips feather over her own before she heard a grunt and felt his weight being lifted off of her.
She looked up to see Jesse looking the angriest she had ever seen him.
"What the hell are you doing?" He yelled at Luke, he gripped him up and was about to punch him before Beca intervened.
While she was happy Jesse showed up so nothing would have happened she was also disappointed because he could ruin her chances of going to the party.
"Jesse! Jesse! STOP!" Jesse let him go and stared at him angrily.
Luke looked at Beca and smiled. "I'll see you later at the party."
He then looked at Jesse. "Both of you." then he walked out of the house.
Beca took a deep breath. "Thank goodness I thought you might have fucked up our chances of going to the party."
Jesse looked at her with confusion. "Are you being serious right now?"
Jesse didn't allow her to respond before continuing. "Luke almost took your virginity, on your mother's couch! He attacked Chloe and that wasn't the first time and you want to go hang with him at a party?"
Beca turned her head and nodded. She wasn't exactly a virgin but he didn't need to know that. "Yes, and you want to go too and you are."
Jesse gave her face that said 'wanna bet' and Beca pouted. "Please Jess, you don't even have to talk to him, let's just go to the party and have fun. pleaseee."
Meanwhile back at Chloe's house, Stacie and Chloe were talking.
"Chloe why does he hit you, what happened you guys seemed so happy?"
Chloe wiped her tears and looked at Stacie. "Promise not to tell anyone okay, I'm not ready for everyone to know."
Stacie nodded her head and told her to continue. She straightened up and turned to Stacie "it started a few months ago, not him hitting me, me feeling something different like something wasn't right. I seemed to have everything I could want and need but I wasn't happy. I had the perfect boyfriend, the perfect family, house even friends but I don't know I just felt like I was holding back. In November, I left for a while, I'm sure you noticed I wasn't in school, well I was having some much needed me time, I needed to be alone with my thoughts and myself and I came to the conclusion that Luke wasn't for me, that no guy was for me."
Chloe paused waiting for Stacie to catch on. Stacie was lost in thought until she finally realized.
"OH!"Stacie looked at her shyly. "You're a lesbian."
Chloe nodded and looked at her. "That doesn't change your perspective of me does it, because Luke just couldn't except the fact that I was breaking up with him and the fact that the next person I date is likely to be a girl so he started hitting me. He doesn't even want me to come out because he thinks people will say he turned me gay, which isn't true at all."
Stacie looked at Chloe with a small smile. "Of course not, your still the same Chloe to me, well not really because my friends and I thought you were a bitch, but you're really not."
Chloe laughed. "Gee thanks."
Half an hour later Chloe heard a knock on her door.
She walked lightly to her door peeking to see who it was. She took a deep breath when she saw it was only Jesse.
She opened the door and let him in shocked to see Beca trailing behind him giving her a light smile. She led them to the couch and awkwardly sat down.
"Um Stacie left like ten minutes ago if that's why you guys are here."
Jesse nodded his head. "Thanks but that's not why we're here. We wanted to check on you and see if you were okay."
Chloe looked at Jesse and smiled. "Thank you, I'm sure that's why your here but last I heard from Beca is that I deserve what I got and that I'm a bitch."
Beca looked down shyly and then looked back at Chloe. "I'm really sorry for what I said and I really did want to make sure you were okay. What happened though?"
Chloe suddenly found the ground really interesting. "I don't really want to talk about it."
"I know you told Stacie, so you can tell me, she told me to come to you and ask you so here I am. Why did Luke hit you and why shouldn't I hang with him?"
Chloe looked at Beca with sincerity. "I can't talk about this."
Her eyes trailed to Jesse and he looked around awkwardly "I can leave if this is girl talk; I think Beca should know so she can be safe."
Chloe shook her head "it's not girl talk, I just- I don't know."
"Hey it's okay I'll go, you two talk, I'll pick you up for the party Bec, see you guys later." Jesse walked out leaving Chloe and Beca alone.
"So you gonna tell me no-"
"Your still going to that party?" Chloe asked.
Beca nodded. "Don't change the subject ginger, what's happening with you and Luke?"
Chloe sighed. "We'll talk about that in a minute; I didn't think you'd still be going to the party."
"Why wouldn't I, Luke hasn't done anything to me that would tell me I shouldn't."
Chloe pushed her red hair out of her face. "So Luke just walked you home and left?"
Beca shook her head. "Not exactly, Jesse came before anything happened."
Chloe looked at her in disbelief. "Had Jesse not shown up, you know what would have happened. I guess that doesn't matter though, I'll see you at the party."
Beca looked at her with the same amount of disbelief on her face.
"You just told me I shouldn't go to the party and Luke hasn't done anything to me, but he has hurt you and you're gonna go to the party? You're crazy; I didn't think you'd want to go."
Chloe stood up and walked to the door. "I wasn't going to go, but I feel like I should be there."
Beca stood up as well. "Why now?"
Chloe opened the door. "I think you should leave now Beca, maybe I'll see you later."
Beca rolled her eyes and walked up to Chloe, inwardly dying at the close proximity of them but quickly brushing it off. "You haven't answered any of my questions, nor have you told me what happened between you and Luke. I'm not leaving until you answer at least one fucking question!"
Chloe pushed Beca out of house and shouted at her. "I'm gay; he hit me and broke up with me because I told him I fucking like girls okay!"
Chloe shut and locked the door and went into her room.
The whole walk home Beca was feeling so confused.
'Luke hit her because she likes girls?' She thought to herself.
'What does he have against people who like the same sex?'
She didn't know whether or not she believed Chloe she was a bitch after all, or so she thought, she seemed really different like what Stacie, said she doesn't seem the way she seems if that makes any sense. She has this tough girl look and comes off as a bitch but she actually seemed sweet and caring. She looked at the time and all previous thoughts went out of her mind as she realized she had to get ready for the party. An hour later Jesse was at her house with a frown on his face.
"Hey Jess, you look nice, ready for the party?"
Jesse nodded. "As ready as I'll ever be, come on Stacie's waiting in the car."
When they got to the party they were shocked. They knew Luke was popular but it looked like the whole city was here.
"Damn, this place is packed. I didn't even know there were this many people in our school." Jesse said as he looked around.
Stacie nodded. "Yeah, this looks like the time I gave my Uncle Emilio tickets to the football game and we got lost in the stadium and had to climb over everyone to find our way out."
Jesse and Beca both looked at Stacie and laughed. "Seriously Stace, where the hell do you come up with these stories?" Beca said with a chuckle as she walked up the stairs.
Stacie ran up the stairs after them. "Hey! They are not stories; they are true events of my life!"
As they walked into the house they saw Luke turning a corner and Beca quickly called out to him.
Jesse rolled his eyes. "Come on Becs, I thought you said we didn't have to hang with him."
Beca smiled as he walked over to them. "I said you didn't, I didn't say anything about me."
Luke smiled at all them and thanked them for coming, Jesse and Stacie went to get drinks and Beca walked around with Luke.
Jesse frowned. "I don't trust that asshole."
Stacie nodded. "Same here, maybe we shouldn't drink and we should try to discreetly watch them. No hunting for me tonight.
"That won't be necessary, you two have fun, Stacie go 'hunt' or whatever, I came here so I can make sure he doesn't try anything with her."
They both looked at Chloe with confused expressions.
"When the hell did you get here and what are you even doing here, I didn't think you were coming." Stacie said.
Chloe shrugged. "I heard what Luke tried with her earlier and I didn't want him trying anything on her at the party where she could possibly be drugged. I actually kind of like her."
They both looked at Chloe and nodded their heads at her. She definitely wasn't who they thought she was.
Stacie had a feeling there was a deeper reason of her wanting to protect her. Chloe told her she liked someone she probably could never have and Stacie couldn't help but wonder if said crush was her best friend.
