It was now three days after the finals. Beca was laying in her bed, thinking about what had happened the last days. Together with Aubrey the Bellas had prepared a new song, or better said a remix. Beca couldn't remember something she had worked so hard on. But this time was an exception. Even if she would never admit it, she loved these girls. They had become their best friends, which was unusual for Beca. She has never been a girl with many friends...and now that she had it, she couldn't be feeling better. Even if she wasn't the type of person that shows her affection all the time, the other girls knew it and appreciated it. The day ofnthe finals had been a great day, Beca had enjoyed it so much. They had really won the finals! This year it wasn't the Trebles. No, this year the Bellas occupy this place.
Even if she didn't want it, her thoughts straggled to the Trebles, of better said to one special Treble: Jesse. While she had been singing on stage, he had looked at her in a for Beca strange way. All the time he had had that weird grinning on his face, which wasn't that strange. But this time, she had had seen something in his eyes...something special, something new which Beca didn't really understand.
When she got aware of what she had been thinking, she rebuked herself fast. Really? She sounded like a love-sick teenage girl who makes herself hopes, that the love of her life reciprocates her feelings. Beca took a deep breath. But why was she caring so much about him or about what he was thinking of her?
"Stop it Beca!" the girl mumbled to herself. This was going too far. It seemed college was making Beca behave like a typical girl, and this was the last thing she wanted to happen. Sighing, she turned around in her bed and grabbed het phone. While she was switching it on, Beca looked at the other side of the room. Normally, Kimmy Jin should be laying there. But yesterday she had moved out. It wasn't because there had been a problem between both of them. No, in fact their 'relationship' had gotten much better. But they had found out that Chloe had been sharing a room with a member of the Korean club Kimmy Jin was in. So they had decided that Kimmy Jin and Chloe change rooms. Yesterday, the Korean girl had packed her things and moved out. Chloe would first move in today because after the finals, she had disappeared with her boyfriend after being drunk mostly the whole night while the Bellas had been partying. Later, Beca had gotten a message that she shouldn't be worried because Chloe would spend the weekend at his house. So that's why Beca was laying alone in her room, at a Sunday morning, and thinking about friends, finals and about the love. Yep, college was really changing her.
Why was she behaving like this, she asked herself meanwhile. Did she really have feelings for Jesse? The last time Beca has been in love has been during college. There was that guy, she had a crush on. But he didn't notice her, he didn't even know that she existed. Of course, Beca had suffered a lot until she decided to forget him. Since then, she kind of got immune to boys. But this changed when she had met Jesse for the first time. Something about his way to behave, about his character...it had fascinated her. But was this love?
Her thoughts we interrupted by her phone, that already had booted. And yet, a little light signaled that even if it was still 9am in the morning, she had received a message. When she saw who had texted her, her heart started to throb very fast. It was from Jesse.
"Hey, what's up weirdo. You're already awake?"
When she read the message, she couldn't help that a big grin appeared on her lips. Jesse was the only one who called he weirdo. It was kind of funny, but also it made is special for Beca, even if she didn't really want to admit it.
One second she worried if it would seem strange if she answered him immediately, but then she said to herself: "C'mon Beca, he's just a friend. If Chloe would have texted you, would you have worried about that? No, you wouldn't. So text him!"
"Morning. Yes, I just woke up :) "
A few seconds later there already came a response. "Hope I didn't wake you up. Already plans for today? :D"
Beca breathed in. Why was he asking if she had planned something? Now she was curios and typed in an answer.
"No, you didn't :) Well, tonight, Chloe will move in, so I'll help her with her stuff. But apart of that...nope, I haven't."
Beca put her phone text to her head on the pillow while she was waiting for his answer. An then, a few minutes, which for Beca seemed like an eternity, her phone beeped. She took it fast and read his answer.
"I'd like to ask you if we could do something together today, of course just until you have to go. Maybe we could have lunch together and after that watch a movie or something else, idk. :) but just if you want to."
While reading this message, a part of Beca was jumping and dancing of joy. This part was trying to convince the other sceptical part that Jesse had asked her for a date. But fast, Beca suppressed the idea of a 'date'. "Jesse just asked me if we would spend the afternoon together, nothing else. It's just a meeting between two good friends." she said to herself while answering the message.
"Sure, it's a good idea. But please, just one movie for today, okay? ;) "
Seconds later, her phone beeped for the forth time.
"When shall we meet? Am I that predictable? ;) "
Beca chuckled. Yes, he knew Jesse very well, better that other friends. Maybe it was because Jesse was very sincere, and if you once got his confidence, you'll hardly loose it.
"Maybe at 11am at the main entrace of the college? Oh, I know you very well ans for ne you're totally predictable ;) "
Laborious, Beca stood up from her bed and went to her wardrobe. There was it, this famous question: What should I wear? But a part of Beca clarified that this WASN'T a date, so it wasn't imoortant what she weared. So Beca took of a pair of jeans, a black and blue striped shirt and her bathrobe. One last time she took her phone and checked if there was a new message. And yes, of course, there was.
"Okay, that's fine. Should I be worried now? ;) Later, you'll tell me everything about your life, because I feel that you know much more about be than I know about you ;)"
Beca hold her breath. She should tell him about her life? Something that Beca really hated was to talk about herself. She didn't really like it when she was in the centre, she was someone who didn't want to get too much attention. But then she tried to calm down? Maybe Jesse had been joking, maybe he just said it, but didn't really mean it like that.
"Yes, you should ;) I'll take a shower now, see you later." The thing with her life she just didn't comment. And then she got the last message for that morning.
"Okay, see you :) Don't drown ;) "
Yep, this was that Jesse everybody loved. And even if his comments werd completely silly she couldn't stop smiling. And with this for Beca totally strange smile she started to make her way to the bathroom.
