Hey guys, I apologize for not posting for what feels like a year. I have been incredibly busy and I hope you understand. But here is my second chapter and I hope you enjoy.
It was two weeks since Lola handed Jesse that piece of paper, and everyday since that day Jesse has been acting weird. We haven't had a date in a month and whenever I come to his dorm he apologizes because he is "busy". Once, after I left, I put my ear up to the door and heard him call someone. I mean, who could he be talking to that is more important than I am? Yeah, I know that sounds selfish, but I'm his girlfriend. I just have to find out what he is doing. So after class one day, I confronted Benji.
"Hi, Benji!" I greeted.
"Hey, Beca" He said.
"How are you?" I asked.
"I'm good. How are you?" He asked.
"Well, that's the problem. I'm not doing that well. Not like health issues, but "Jesse issues". He's always ignoring me these days and it's really irritating. Like badly. What has he been doing that makes him so "busy"?" I asked.
"You're right, he used to help me set up my Star Wars action figures, but now he's always on the phone talking to some girl" Benji said.
"What? A girl? But no, he would never cheat. No one could ever beat me except Chloe, but. . . . OH MY GOD! I know what's going on! Benji, I'm going to fix this for the both of us!" I said and ran off.
"Or just you" Benji said quietly.
As soon as I realized that he was secretly talking to Lola, I realized other things as well. Like when Lola handed Jesse that slip of paper, it had her number on it! And that she was going to try and steal him from me! And that would make me emotionally unstable and then cause us to lose ICCA's. But that is not the point! I have to get to Jesse.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Jesse! I know you're in there! Open the door!" I heard a gasp, and not Jesse's gasp.
"Um-uh. . . One minute! I'm just getting out of the shower" Jesse called. Sure, taking a shower at two in the afternoon? I heard whispers and then heard something fall. Then, the door opened.
"Oh, hey, Beca! I wasn't expecting you!" Jesse panted.
"I know" I pushed him aside and strolled into his dorm. My eyes adjusted to Benji's side of the room and I looked around.
"So. What are you doing here?" He asked.
"I heard whispers" I said.
"What? Whispers? Before you came in? Oh, that was just me talking to my self." He explained.
"Of course" I plopped myself on the bed.
"How are you?" He began to pull me close to him. That's when I saw it.
Again, I apologize and hope you enjoyed this chapter!
