I'm glad you came.
He was called The ladies man, she was known as the Mattress queen. A match made in heaven or hell?
She wasn't the kind of girl to be obsessed over minor things. So when Donald had told her to never get close to her, she had been offended. Who did he think he was? First he saves her, then they spend an incredible day, after that, he keeps his distance, then he lefts the party with the only girl who had been mean to her and now he's insulting her, but he's projecting fear. This man is confusing as hell! It's in that moment that she understands. She had done her usual background check after the auditions. He had a dark past, that's why he was scared of hurting her and wanted to drive her away. He took Corey with him, staged a hot night of passion, and made sure Aubrey saw them to make sure she wasn't back and bullied her. She had seen him and Chloe drinking a coffee a week ago. So he probably new about their oath, he was aware of what leaving together would cause.
As he keeps on insulting her, she makes eye contact. The raw pain was obvious; he was scared, for her, of her and the future, he was confirming the connection wasn't only in her head. She's happy, she's sad and she's confused. It's illogical she could care so much for someone she had barely had contact with. Did she want to do something about it?
As she ponders, silence invades her senses; he's looking at her, waiting for the finishing blow. For her to call him names, curse his name and swear to never meet him ever again, under pain of death. But, she can't find those feelings, it hurts, of course it does, no one can rejoice after such a verbal beating, but, she doesn't hate him, she's just disappointed. "I thought you were braver." He's frozen, so she leaves.
After that, for a whole month she made sure to tempt him, to make sure she's always in his thoughts. A glimpse here and there, on the cafeteria, the coffee shop, the grocery store, on his way to campus, on the way back, everywhere, she wants to be everywhere for him, she wants to make him hallucinate her, to crave for her. Then Chloe asks permission to pass him her schedule, she smiles and stops her hunt. It's his turn, he finally realised he wants her, he can't live without her, her anger diminishes.
For the riff off she made sure to dress provocative, her cleavage is pronounced, her jeans are skin-tight, her hair flows and her make up is virginal. When she sings, he immediately zeroes in her. She taunts him, provokes him, calls him and then Jesse cuts in and ruins the moment. Beca does amazing, so do they all, and Aubrey is her stuck up persona as always. Why they can't figure the stupid A's time is beyond her. Then again, she confuses them on purpose. She finally found out the story behind Cynthia Rose and Denise break up, and tries to stop Cynthia Rose in her gambling problem, but having her ex so close isn't helping much.
As she was going home, she saw Corey leaving someone's room, she isn't one to judge, but she looks fatter. After 2 hours of tossing and turning in her bed, she huffs in frustrations and decides this hunt is getting nowhere. So he goes to see her hunter, to tempt him a little more and gauge his reactions. How much braver he's gotten.
He isn't home, so she leaves a post it, makes a wrong turn and catches Donald just outside his door. Well, this could be interesting.
"Donald" she whispers seductively on his ear. He jumps, that would have been cute if he hadn't seen her with such raw feelings.
