I'll run to you, I'll run to you

I'll run, run, run

Lana Del Rey-Old money

When the Bellas' performance was over and the entire Lincoln Center applauded them, Beca was the first to leave the stage, standing in front of Jesse, who was in the hallway and they both smiled, knowing that the song she had sung was a form of the rebel apologize to him and the two embraced.

"I hope you'll forgive me for the way I treated you, Jesse." The young woman said, looking at him ashamed, but he smiled, reassuring her.

"Of course I do, after that homage with the song from 'Breakfast Club'."

"Friends?" Beca smiled, before taking a step aside, saying: "There's someone you should kiss seriously." And she walked away with Chloe and the others, all smiling as much from the performance as at what was about to happen with one of the Bellas.

Jesse's eyes met Aubrey's, who was the last one to leave the stage, her hair down, not wearing her 'Bella blaze' and her face was red as she was still catching her breath. And Jesse didn't gave her time to recover it..

When the blonde stopped in front of him, smiling in anticipation, the boy wrapped his arms around her waist, bringing her to him and kissing her with passion. Aubrey brought her hands up to his brown hair, running her fingers through the locks and feeling his grip tighten as their lips moved, pressing themselves against each other until they broke off the kiss to breathe.

Aubrey leaned her forehead against his, still catching her breath from the kiss and smiled, seeing Jesse's silly grin.

"Was it good?"

"The kiss or the performance?" He asked, staring at Aubrey's red lips and she laughed, feeling his hands caress her waist.

"Both."

"You, my dear, gave me something incredible today that I don't intend to let anyone else have access to: your kisses." If another man had said that, it probably would have sounded exaggerated, but coming from Jesse, she could feel the sincerity of his words, and then, he said brightly: "I've never seen you as free and light as today, Aubrey. I haven't seen only a Bella, but a woman who can do whatever she wants in life, without having to do things under pressure or have a man telling her how to do it. "

Aubrey then brought her lips to his in a sweet kiss, before Jesse took her hand so they could go to their seats along with the Bellas and the Treble. And it was there that Aubrey saw her father, dressed in his navy uniform, and smiled at her with pride, as she had never seen before, as if he had first realized that Aubrey was no longer a child, but a woman doing her own choices and she smiled.

During the cocktail party, Aubrey and Jesse escaped from their friends to go for a coffee date, but as New York never stopped, the two bought their coffees and went to the hotel where the acappella groups were staying, heading for the room Jesse was sharing with Benji. Jesse led her to his bed, facing the television, and then handed her some DVDs and went to take off his coat and prepare the TV

"Do you always bring your DVDs when you travel?" She asked with a raised eyebrow and smiling and the boy laughed, leaving a sweatpants and T-shirt beside her if she wanted to change later.

"Well, I promised you a date with coffee and a movie, and with Chloe's help I was able to discover your tastes." In the blonde's hands there were some of her favorite movies and others which probably matched her tastes and she mentally wrote a note to take Chloe to her favorite coffee shop to thank her.

Aubrey looked at the cover of 'Dirty Dancing' and Jesse smiled at the choice because it was one of his favorite movies with a great soundtrack. As the movie began, they leaned against the head of the bed with Aubrey's head resting on his shoulder, her waist wrapped around Jesse's arm.

During the movie, Aubrey raised her head from his shoulder to get rid of the scarf that she still was wearing and Jesse's eyes diverged from the movie to her fingers that were on her neck, moving over the knot of the scarf and then he leaned over to kiss her neck, making Aubrey shiver, until he moved his lips to the scarf, undoing the knot with his teeth and Aubrey's hands went to his brown hair as she closed her eyes to feel him.

Jesse's lips then rose to hers as the scarf fell and he kissed her. The kiss started slow with just the pressure of their lips against the other and then Aubrey sat over his legs to get closer to his body and his hands went to her waist, playing with the hem of her jeans.

The blonde parted her lips, feeling his tongue ask for passage and curled her fingers into his hair, staying taller than him and pulling them.

"Aubrey..." Jesse whispered between the kiss as he moved his hands over her pants, making her sigh and then moving them through her blouse until they reached her bra and feeling his desire for her increase even more, and he rested his hands there, interrupting the kiss and looking at her passionately, his eyes darkened.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." She answered confidently, catching the breath and then pressing his leg with her thighs with a sly smile and leaned her head down to kiss him, before Jesse reversed the positions and stayed on top, with them lying down on the mattress, his hands caressing hers breasts, before slipping into the waistband of her jeans, touching and teasing her, feeling her opening his pants and lowering them with his underwear and holding him,

When the two finally relaxed, sweaty and holding each other, the movie was already at the end, playing the famous song 'Time of my life' and the two smiled, staring at each other as Jesse stroked her hair and Aubrey asked laughing:

"Still crazy about me?"

"More than ever, Aubrey, and that won't change..." He answered in a sincere and passionate voice, bringing her body to his and staring at her. "I love you."

"I love you too, Jesse." She replied with a beautiful smile, running a finger down his eyebrow and temple and the boy couldn't resist and kissed her, running one hand down her back, while the other entwined with hers over his chest, both anxious for the summer that was near .

"Are you okay with all this?" He asked referring to the graduation in a month, knowing it was a big change, she would be working at a camp and also coordinating a group of Acapella from there.

"Great, a little anxious, but prepared. I don't feel like throwing up anymore or anything." She admitted smiling and making Jesse feel proud of her.

The boy smiled, lowering his hands from her back to her belly, remembering the all the times she had felt like throwing up and caressed her gently in support, for whatever came, staring at her with love.

"I'm happy... I'll love to visit you at your camp after graduation."

"I will be waiting for you."
