Beca's POV
Stacie and I were lucky enough to have no morning classes today so we just sat on my bed and talked, we didn't even bother to get changed or anything.
"So who was the dude you were walking about with last night?" she asked
"Wait, what? Where were you, stalker?" I joked
"You know, just doing what a stalker does" she joked, I laughed and pushed her shoulder "No, I was just wandering around campus seeing where everything is"
"Oh" I said out of realisation "Yeah that's my friend Andy that I met at the radio station"
"Just friends?" she smirked, I raised my eyebrows and my eyes widened
"Yes!" I laughed
"Do "friends" just walk with you with their arm around your waist?" She asked, raising an eyebrow, I looked at her confused
"What are you talking about?" I asked
"How could you not realise that his arm was around your waist?"
"What?"
"Oh come, on how can you not even realise this?" she asked and she wrapped her arm around my waist
"I...don't even know" I said, looking out the window, highly confused about how I could not realise it, I turned back to Stacie and then my phone vibrated, I picked it up and slid my finger over the unlock bar and it was a text from Jesse, I sighed at his contact name that I still hadn't changed "My movie nerd" I could feel Stacie staring over my shoulder
From: My movie nerd
Hey, come meet us at the diner of campus at lunch-My movie nerd
To: My movie nerd
Yeah, sure-Beca
I set my phone down in front of me and ran my hand down my face. Pull it together Beca it was just a text, you're not with him anymore. My phone vibrated, I picked it back up and looked at the text, this time it was from Stacie, wait, what? She's right here, I read it anyway and it was a picture of a quote which said "If two past lovers can remain friends, it's either they were never in love, or they still are." I snapped my eyes shut and took a deep breath
"I'm gonna take a shower" I mumbled and stood up to collect my stuff.
12:30pm
Jesse's POV
We were all currently sitting in EnRico's, a small diner just off campus. We had all decided the best time to meet up with Erin, Aubrey and Chloe was at lunch so no one was in class, so Fat Amy recommended here so we could eat while we talked.
"Right Erin what is this secretive master plan that you have devised?" I asked across the table to Erin.
"Well when we heard that there wasn't an appropriate acappella group on campus we called up the dean to ask if it was possible for you to start your own group an..."
"And he said yes!" Chloe interrupted excitedly, Erin just gave her a glare for stealing her thunder.
"Well as cool as that is we don't know the first thing about running an acappella group" Uni said bluntly with a mouth full of omelette
"Well that's the best bit of my plan you see..."
"We're gonna help you guys!" Chloe interrupted again, but she looked sheepishly to Erin when she realized she had done it again. Erin just threw her hands up in defeat and grunted.
"That's actually a really good idea" Stacie said sounding surprised, several others nodded and a couple of "yeah's" in agreement. I looked over to Beca who just rolled her eyes
"Right, so you guys are all in then?" Aubrey said sounding as though she was still unsure of our support "because you need to be in this one hundred percent, if we are gonna make this work, because it's not easy there will be lots to do like..." she paused, picked up a handful of her fries and shoved them in Chloe's mouth "..Cardio, choreography, song lists and lots and lots of practices" she started laughing when she saw Chloe still struggling to recover from being attacked with fries.
"Yeah I'm in" I said putting my hand in the middle of us, palm down. Everyone put their hands on top of my hand, everyone except Beca that is. I looked up at her and she looked worried, scared and miles away as she just stared dejectedly at the pile of hands. "Come on Beca, put your hand in" Stacie said as though it was the most obvious thing in the world, which it kinda was.
"No"
"What do you mean 'no'" Stacie asked mimicking Beca's voice which lacked enthusiasm.
"I mean no, I don't want to put my hand in cause I don't want to be in the group" she said still not taking her eyes off the hands in the centre of the table.
"What?! Why? You used to"
"Well that was before..."she looked up at me then away before standing up "look, I said I would meet Andy, I will see you all later...Stacie I'll see you back at the dorm" she said with a sorry smile as she threw down ten dollars for her food before walking out the door. Of course she's meeting up with Andy. Why would she possibly want to be in my company? She can spend more time with him, there has to be something that tarnishes his suitability for Beca. Maybe he's a psychopath, or on drugs, or an alcoholic. Oh there's no point who am I kidding she clearly likes him way more than she does me.
Adam's POV
"Whoa" I mumbled as Beca walked out the diner, I looked over at Jesse who was just staring off into the distance.
"I...ermm" He cleared his throat" have a class to get to" he mumbled as he left the diner heading in the opposite way that Beca had, he wasn't going after her.
"Accawkward" Fat Amy said and everyone just looked at her and chuckled slightly.
"You got that right. And good use of the accaism there by the way"
"Right guys I guess we should probably be leaving too, class" Uni said and several others stood up
"Yeah we should probably get back too" Aubrey said more of a command for Erin and Chloe than a question.
We were soon left with just Jess, Stacie, Donald and I sitting in the booth the others had left money for us to pay the bill, well everyone had except Uni. "Why is my sister such an idiot?" I said covering my face with my hands and shook my head. Jessica leaned into my side and wrapped her arms around my waist.
"That reminds me she has been spending time with this new guy Andy. She is, but she's really confused right now, because she's still angry at Jesse because he threw in the towel too easily on their relationship, I think the new guy is just clouding her judgement"
"Yeah Jesse doesn't like him, well he says that he seems to be a nice enough guy but he sees him as a threat, he says that he's really flirty" Donald added
"But to be fair I asked Beca and she didn't even realise that the guy was flirting with her so I don't think we have anything to worry about and neither does Jesse" Stacie said confidently
"God, Donald I'm so happy that I'm sharing my dorm with you" I said breathing out a sigh of relief
"Adam I know I'm a kickass roommate, but I'm afraid I don't follow you"
"Don't you realise how awkward it would have been for me and Jesse to have dormed together, and what if Beca needed to talk me.
Beca's POV
I unlocked the door of my dorm with Andy behind me; he was coming to check out some of my mixes since he said he mixes some stuff too
"Stacie?" I asked as I entered the room, I looked around but she wasn't here, I threw my bag on the ground and sat on the chair at my desk as Andy sat on my bed, I powered on my laptop and plugged my headphones in, I was about to put them on but Andy spoke and I placed them back on the desk
"What's Jesse to you?" He asked curiously, I turned back to my laptop screen
"My ex-boyfriend" I mumbled "Why?"
"Just wondering" he said innocently, Oh god please don't say he's really into me like Stacie said, I don't like him like that, I still love Jesse...really Beca, really? Jesus I will never take the piss out of teen romcoms again when the girl is struggling to just forgive the guy. A few minutes of silence until he spoke up again "Can I tell you something?" He asked, nervously, I turned to face him and tilted my head slightly to the left
"Yeah, sure"
"Well there is only a few people that actually know this and I know we've only known each other since yesterday but I feel I can trust ye-"
"Stop rambling" I laughed, putting him at ease a little, he didn't make eye contact and just played with his fingers
"Right, okay" He took a deep breath "I'm gay" he finally said, I widened my eyes in shock
"Well that was unexpected" I laughed slightly, I thought for a couple of seconds then a thought hit me "Dude! Why did you not tell me earlier and what's with all the flirting?" He looked up and smirked
"I guess I'm just a flirty guy" he smirked seeming like himself again
"Flirting with straight girls isn't gonna get you anywhere in your love life" I deadpanned, he just shook his head and laughed, he pulled his gum out of his mouth
"Where's the bin?" He asked, I squinted my eyes at him
"Where's my what? Who's bin?" He let out a frustrated sigh
"The wee fucking thingy that ye put yer rubbish in" He said, flailing is arms around, I laughed at him and picked up the trash can off the floor and held it in front of him and he dropped his gum in it
"The trash can?" I asked as I placed it back down
"Trash can" he mimicked in an American accent "What's wrong with you's? Just say bin, it's easier" He sighed
"Fine then, what other words do you use that we don't?" I asked as I took a seat on the bed beside him
"Okay then, this is easy..." He said, smirking at me "Trousers"
"Pants"
"What the fuck?" He said flailing his arms around "It doesn't even..." he said lost for words, I just laughed at him "Pants" he mocked in an American accent; I pushed his shoulder "Um...Jelly"
"We do say Jelly"
"No, you call jam, jelly, jam's jam and jelly's jelly for Christ sake" He laughed "I give up, you guys are too difficult" He said, throwing his hands in the air, I laughed at him again
"I don't think you're trying to be, but you're really funny, I think it's your accent"
"Oh so you're taking the piss out of ma accent now?" He laughed
"You just sat there and took the piss out of mine" I scoffed
"I take the piss out of everyone's accents" He shrugged
"Luke's?" I asked
"Dinnae even get me started on that laddie" He said, leaning forward to place his phone on my desk "Oh look at me, I'm Luke and I have a pansy accent, now young lady, when one drinks tea, we must extend our pinkie to be good mannered" He mocked using an English accent, I doubled over in laughter and he joined me as soon as he finished speaking
"You like making fun of English people, don't you?" I asked
"Fucking right!" He exclaimed, stood up and put his hand on his heart "They may take our lives but they'll never take our freedom!" He exclaimed, he nodded and pointed his finger at me as he took his seat again "Braveheart" he said proudly "Surely, you've seen the film?" he asked
"Don't even get me started on movies, I mean Jesse wou-"I cut myself off as my mind drifted to Jesse, I stared at the ground and Andy placed his hand on my shoulder
"What's wrong with you guys, I mean it was so awkward in radio station when he caught you" He said
"We broke up and then I just friend zoned him, but it doesn't seem right" I responded
"Why not just go out with him again? I mean he is fit" He laughed
"Yeah he works out but why say it like that?" I asked, looking up at him, his eyes darted around the room
"Uh...nevermind" He said awkwardly "You know what? I can't even imagine you going out with him, I mean why?"
"Well he's really sweet and like he's everything a girls looking for..." I trailed off and stared back at the floor "His smile...his big brown eyes that you just get lost in" I smiled at the floor as I pictured Jesse in my mind "I used to be tell him everything, he's a nerd and a cheeseball but that's what makes Jesse, Jesse" I sighed
"You're so in love with him" Andy said, snapping me out of my daydream, I looked up and he just had a smile plastered for ear to ear, I realised that he just tricked me into saying all that, he stood up and held his arms open for me, I stood up and accepted the hug. Seems like old Beca is leaving my system, I'm hugging a guy I've only knew since yesterday. I heard the door creak open and Stacie stepped in
"Well this is cozy" She said, smirking as she dropped her bag beside her bed
"I'm still in love with Jesse" I said a little over excited
"Really?! No one had a single clue" She said sarcastically "But wait, why are you two...you know?" She asked, motioning to the pair of us that were still in each other's arms
"In Scotland this is how we say we hate each other" Andy deadpanned as he let go of me, Stacie just folded her arms and let out a snigger "Okay I need to go" Andy said, walking towards the door "Goodbye y'all!" He called in an American accent and he closed the door behind him
"Soooo..." Stacie trailed off, taking a seat on my bed
"You have a perfectly okay bed over there, yet you need to sit on mine?" I laughed and took a seat next to her "Sooo...what?"
"Are you gonna ask Jesse back out?" She asked excitedly
"Not yet" I said, staring at the door
"For fucks sake!" she exclaimed throwing her hands in the air
"Stacie, I need time, just let me fix things in my own time".
Did you expect that? huh? bet you didn't hehehe
Oh if there is any English folk out there, please don't take offence to Andy's dialogue...he's just really patriotic, yep hahaha
So whats your thoughts on Andy? Bet you love him now, I mean he made Beca realise what an idiot she's being and made her say all the stuff she loves about Jesse, So GO ANDY! gotta love him
Hope you enjoyed, tell me your thoughts :)
