Hey guys!

I'm soooooo sorry. T.T

I just couldn't write, for personal reasons, but now I'm back and I promise I won't disappear again - at least not before I finish my two ongoing stories.

Really hope you guys are still there.

Well, enjoy!

"Hey, how was your eight girl?" Beca asked. She was at Jesse's couch and they were just back from dinner at Chloe's with their friends.

That was the first thing she asked once she got inside, once she couldn't ask him the whole night. Jesse didn't say anything about Aubrey to Bumper or Donald and Beca, as a nice and super unusual thing to do, kept it a secret to save Jesse from some embarrassment- from the guys and also the girls.

"It's so not of your business." Jesse rolled his eyes and looked annoyed at her.

He sat on the couch next to her and gave her a bottle of beer.

Beca took the drink in silence, not taking her eyes off him. She observed Jesse turning on the TV and drinking from his beer, trying to act cool.

"Dude." She called suspicious.

Jesse ignored her, focused on zapping through the channels.

"You didn't do it." Beca said questioning. Jesse didn't react. He didn't try to deny it either.

"Oh my God!" She yelled. And Jesse's shocked face made it clear that she was right. "She's not even fresh meat and you didn't do it!" Beca laughed loudly.

"You are disgusting, you know?" Jesse looked at her, trying to look mad but failing pitifully. Beca just kept laughing at her lame best friend.

"I'm trying to take it slow, okay?" Jesse said with a sigh when Beca stopped laughing, a few minutes later.

Beca frowned and looked at him like he was mental. "How far did you go?" she asked.

"We... talked." Jesse took a swig of his beer. He was so uncomfortable but he knew that the more he tried to skip that subject, the more Beca would be interested.

"That's depressing." Beca bit her lower lip trying not to start laughing again.

"No, we…" Jesse sighed again. "We had dinner and it was great." He stated, with a lot of emphasis. "Then, I took her home and, I mean, she was so hot and all I could think about was to kiss her and that she was hot..." He was losing focus on his narration.

Beca nodded, letting him continue. That story was getting boring, but she didn't say anything.

"… And then I kissed her." Jesse said slowly. "And, damn, she kissed me back and it was totally gonna happen, but then she stopped."

"What?" Beca asked confused. "You're that bad as a kisser?"She asked with a smirk.

"No-I…" Jesse took a sip of his beer. It was getting hot, he could feel the sweat. "You know what? Forget it." He leaned back on the couch and shut his face, focused only on the TV. That meant the conversation was over and Jesse was unhappy with something.

"Jesse, just tell me what happened." Beca said a little curt. He was hiding something from her and it wasn't only about not getting laid.

"She said she wouldn't do it." He said, a shadow passing through his face.

He took a deep breath and looked at Beca on the eyes. "Because you and I are still friends."

Jesse couldn't take his eyes off her. She was gorgeous. She was wearing a cross front long dress with an ocean green top and white skirt. It showed her nice curves and the flowy skirt gave her a sexy and feminine look. A cascade of her golden and perfect hair ran down her shoulders and Jesse was completely hypnotized by it. He always liked girls with long hair.

He remembered those times when they were still dating, when they would spend the night together and then in the morning, he would look her on her sleep. He would caress her soft hair and kiss her forehead. He would hold her on his arms softly, careful not to wake her. He definitely missed her. She was the best woman he'd ever dated and he missed her. Yes, he missed her a lot.

Aubrey was with no doubt the most beautiful woman inside that restaurant and Jesse would be a fool if he didn't make a move soon. He couldn't just let her go again. Not this time.

"So, how have you been?" He asked after the waiter left with their orders. He was smiling, his penetrating eyes looking straight at hers.

"Good," Aubrey smiled making some effort not to show Jesse how shaken she was with his sexiness. "a little busy with work, but it was worth it."

"You went to Paris, right?" Jesse leaned on his arms over the table, getting closer to her. His face showed his interest. "How was it?"

"Paris is wonderful. So romantic." She smiled seductively. Two could play that game.

"I see you had fun."

"Yeah, this trip was something I really needed." She laughed softly. "But let's face it: my life is in LA. I really missed home."

"And what else did you miss?" Jesse raised an eyebrow at her.

"Well," Aubrey did a small pause. They both knew where that was going. "I missed my family, there were times things got hard and all I wanted was to take a flight back here to have a mug of my mom's special tea." Aubrey smiled shyly.

"Uh huh." Jesse encouraged her to continue. That smile still on his face.

"I also missed my friends. Being alone there sucked."

"Did you miss me?" Jesse asked with no hesitation. His eyes were deep into hers. He was still smiling, but he was now completely serious.

"I… I'd rather not answer that." Aubrey smiled and looked away from Jesse slightly.

"You sounded like a lawyer, Aubrey." Jesse laughed and leaned back on his chair. "I think you may have a future as one if you quit journalism."

"Thanks, Jesse." Aubrey laughed as well. Inside, she was happy he remembered that much about her. "I'll keep that in mind."

"Thanks for the night, Jesse. I had a lot of fun." Aubrey said smiling.

They were in front of her apartment's door after dinner. Jesse insisted on taking Aubrey home and so had he done.

"Yeah, it was nice seeing you again." He leaned slightly on the wall looking straight at her.

"Well, good night." Aubrey stood on her tiptoes and leaned to the guy to kiss him on the cheek.

Jesse got that opportunity and automatically his hands wrapped around Aubrey's waist. He didn't let her go even when she tried to get away from him. Aubrey looked up and met Jesse's dark eyes and seductive smile. She was so lost, there was no way she could resist him – not when he held her like that.

"Good night." He whispered with his deep voice. They were so close that she could feel his breath, her eyes moved unconsciously to his mouth and kept that way for a moment.

She was so hypnotized that she didn't notice Jesse slowly moving. She didn't notice when his body started leaning to hers. She was completely caught by surprise when his lips met hers.

A whole world of emotions flooded her mind at once. She got back to that time when they still dated. Jesse was her knight, always so kind, so sweet, so handsome. She missed him and even after moving to Paris, there were times – more than she would admit- when she really wished they were still together. Aubrey was devastated when they broke up- even though she was the one who did it.

And, now, there he was kissing her again. The time they were apart made it all so much emotional, made the kiss so amazing. She couldn't forget how good Jesse was but he was better, way better than she remembered.

That's why she had such a hard time trying to stop it. There was a reason why they'd broken up and she was fully aware of that. She just couldn't make her body to cooperate with her.

"Jesse…" Aubrey said, her voice just a little higher than a whisper, her breath unbelievably heavy. "Stop." She pushed him away.

Jesse was lost when she said that.

Everything was going so well, why would she want to stop? Was he moving too fast?

"I'm sorry, Aubrey." Jesse took a step back. Of course he was moving too fast, they had just met after a long time, it didn't matter if they'd dated before. That's what he got from thinking with his 'other head'. "I think I just missed you a lot."

"I missed you too." Aubrey said slowly, realizing how Jesse had understood her abrupt reaction to the kiss. "I want to kiss you too, but there's something I have to ask you first." She said apprehensive.

Jesse looked at her softly, encouraging her to continue.

Then, Aubrey made her question and Jesse realized at that moment that things weren't gonna be the way he wanted them to. Night was far from ending and for his delight, on the most awful way possible.

She asked if he was still friends with Beca.

Yeah, not such a good 'triumphant return from the dead' chap. I swear, I'm trying.

Soooo what do you thing J&B should do?
