AN: I changed my mind, here you go peeps. Enjoy.
"Since we're talking first impression, I thought you were idiot, a hot one, when we first met, well it would the second time we met but you know what I mean." Beca walked to him until they were sharing the umbrella.
She gave him her hand. Jesse took it and got up.
"And I still do."
He kept looking into her eyes trying to read her, but her reaction was vague, she wasn't mad, nor did she seem happy.
She didn't answer me. Does that mean no? Jesse held her hand tightly
"Yes" Beca smiled interlocked their fingers.
Jesse nodded, not really listening to what she said. "Wait a minute did you just say yes, as in yes you will marry me?" Jesse asked in surprise.
"Wasn't that what you asked me?" She questioned, amused by his surprise
Jesse cupped her face and kissed passionately. Beca gripped the umbrella, responding to his kiss, and smiled feeling him smile against her lips.
"I love you" Jesse pulled away then placed a series of kisses on her lips.
Beca changed the umbrella to her right hand when he pulled away and gave him her left hand.
Jesse put the box in his pocket after taking the ring. He put the ring on her ring finger.
Beca exhaled looking at her hand then looked closer at the ring.
Jesse couldn't contain his joy, he cupped her face again and kissed her, only pulling away to sniff his running nose.
"Are you sure about this?" Jesse asked
"As sure as I'll ever be" Beca scratched his beard "Could get whoever operating the rain machine to turn it off?" she looked up
Jesse motioned with his hand for Bumper and Benji to turn it off.
"Why the rain?" Beca asked closing the umbrella
"It's our thing" Jesse shrugged
"How?" she put the umbrella on the bench.
"You told me you're in love with me for the first time under the rain"
"Doesn't make it our thing" she shook her head
"It's cheesy and very cliché'd, and I'm all about that" he grinned
"It will get you sick if you don't change soon" Beca deadpanned
"Beca you're surprisingly calm, are in shock? 'Cause if you don't wanna get married it's fine. I mean I want us to get married, hence the ring and the fake rain and everything-"
"Jesse stop talking" Beca held his face with both hands.
"I'm not in shock, I know what I said, I said yes." She let go of his face "I wouldn't be wearing this if I didn't want to" Beca pointed at the ring.
"So you're my fiancée now?" Jesse grinned
"yep" Beca nodded "No, no, don't" Beca flinched when Jesse was about to pull her in a bear hug.
"Oh right," He said remembering he was soaked
"You have to change Jesse, you're gonna catch a cold" Beca bend down and grabbed his back bag then wore it.
"You changed your mind about marriage?" Jesse asked, still not getting over the fact that she didn't turn him down.
"No, I still think you can live without marriage, but I never said wouldn't get married" Beca shrugged.
"Why didn't say that loud and clear? I spent the last couple of months thinking about asking you to marry me and preparing myself to get rejected."
"Why did you do it then?" she questioned
"Because I need to know if you would. And Bumper said something that made me go buy the ring the next day"
"Bumper? What did he said?"
"He said if you really love me you would do it."
"So, if I said no, you'd think that I don't love you?" she asked, her facial expression and voice indicating that she was hurt. Jesse shook his head.
"If you said yes, it would mean that you're willing to do try something for me, because you love me." Jesse stepped closer to her.
"No, I meant what she said" Bumper shouted from a distance.
"Was that-"
"Bumper" Jesse finished for her.
"Can we go now?" Bumper asked
"Who's we?" Beca arched an eyebrow
"Bumper and Benji" Jesse said to her. "Yeah, you can. Thanks, guys" Jesse shouted
"Congratulations" They heard Benji say "I'm gonna spend the night at Emily's, so that you guys can celebrate"
"Thanks Benji" Beca and Jesse said in unison
"He means so that you can have sex everywhere in the apartment" Bumper yelled
"You can go now, Bumper" Jesse said feeling cold.
Beca noticed his coldness and rubbed his arm.
"Yeah, unless you wanna watch us have sex" Beca shouted
"We are?" Jesse asked
"Not here, we're not" Beca said before she pulled him down and kissed him. "I just want to mess with Bumper" she said against his lips. "And warm you up a little"
Jesse pulled away to sneeze
"You're an idiot." Beca shook her head taking his hand in hers. "Like, do you wanna get sick? Who stands in the rain in December, it's not that cold here, but still, what the fuck is wrong with you" Beca dragged him as they walked.
"It's romantic" Jesse sniffed
"It's stupid—you could have ask me to marry you without getting yourself soaked"
"I feel fine" Jesse shrugged looking inside his pocket for his car keys.
"Don't ever do this rain thing again, or at least before you do something as stupid tell me so that I could tell you not to" She took the keys from him and opened the car trunk to pull a towel he had there.
"You're freezing" Beca said checking Jesse's temperature before she closed the front door behind her.
"I'm fine"
"Jess you're shivering—take off your clothes and go run the shower" she said in a serious tone.
"in your room Jesse" Beca rolled her eyes when he took off his t-shirt
"We have the place for ourselves" Jesse shrugged taking off his shoes then slipped off his jeans.
"C'mere, my lovely fiancée" Jesse grinned taking her hand and pulled Beca to him. "What's with the frown?" he frowned himself.
"Jesse, you're freezing cold yet you refuse to acknowledge it" Beca held his face.
"Fine, I'm a little cold" Jesse lied leaning in. He was freezing, but wouldn't admit to the whole truth.
"Go run the shower" Beca said against his lips. She kissed him then pulled away and nodded for him to go.
"Okay" he nodded when she let go of his face.
"I'm gonna order pizza to be delivered in a couple of hours and join you" she smiled at him. "fiancé" Beca added running a hand through his torso
Jesse grinned then leaned down and kissed her. "I love the sound of that"
"I'll get it" Jesse said wearing his sweatpants when the doorbell rang
"Okay" Beca shouted from the bathroom as she dried her hair.
Jesse grabbed his wallet then walked to the front door.
"Chloe?" Jesse said in puzzlement when he opened the door to find Chloe standing.
"Where is she?" Chloe asked
Jesse pointed at his room, "Excuse me, I need to talk to my best friend" Chloe said walking pass him
"Beca" Chloe called pacing to the room
Jesse closed the door and decided not to go after Chloe.
"You're getting married?" Chloe asked when she got inside the room. How did she know?
"What?" Beca asked over the noise the hair dryer was making, pretending not to have heard her.
"Turn off the hair dryer" Chloe said leaning against the doorway.
"What's up, Chlo?" Beca asked shutting the hair dryer down.
"Nothing much," Chloe shrugged "You?"
"Uhh" Beca put the hair dryer in its place "This is what's new with me" Beca held her left hand up.
"Oh my god, it's beautiful" Chloe gasped walking up to Beca, she held her hand and eyed the ring.
"Jesse's got a great taste" Chloe said admiring the ring.
"Yeah" Beca tilted her head as she stared at her hand. "yeah, he does"
"So, how did he propose?"
"Can we not do this right now?" Beca asked back "We'll get together on the weekend at your place, and you can all interrogate me. And I'll answer every single question you ask, if you leave now Chloe"
"Is that a promise?" Chloe arched her eyebrow
"Yes" Beca nodded, knowing she was gonna regret making this promise.
"Congratulations" Chloe pulled Beca in a hug, a bone-crushing one.
"I need oxygen, Chloe"
"Shut up for a second" Chloe pulled away. "Don't forget to use protection," Chloe winked
"Yeah you're going away, now" Beca pointed at the door "Out"
"How many times have you done it this far?" Chloe chuckled
"I'm not answering that"
"You'll answer me this weekend. Bye Bec, I'm really happy for you." Chloe hugged Beca again and kissed her cheek. "Air the rooms after you're done humping like bunnies" She said before walking out of the room.
"Congrats Jesse," Chloe said looking at Jesse who was laying on the couch and looking at the ceiling
Jesse turned to her and smiled "thanks Chlo"
"Bec is the last person I thought would tie the knot" She said, impressed as she walked to the front door.
"This calls for a celebration" Chloe reached for the door knob "Not the kind you're doing now, but like a party or something"
"Yeah, I get what you mean" Jesse laughed sitting up.
"Well, congrats again and goodbye" Chloe said before she closed the door behind her.
Jesse stretched getting up, he walked back to his room and peeked his head.
"Wanna kill time until pizza is here?" he asked watching her wear his hoodie.
"Yeah" Beca shrugged "What do you have in mind?"
"Making out on the couch?"
"I was thinking maybe we could play some violent video game" Beca walked pass him
"we can do that" Jesse tilted his head, checking Beca out.
"Stop staring" Beca glanced at him feeling his gaze
"Wear pants" Jesse smirked not looking away
"Wear a shirt" she said back hopping on the couch.
"Do you really want me to wear one?" he asked jumped next to her then reached for the controller
"Nope—Hey Jesse why did you take me that movie set in particular?"
"Well, I had a more than an idea in mind, and they all were either from movies or some tv show. The one I went with was the most original"
"Proposing under the rain is your idea of originality?" Beca scoffed
"No, horror movie set is where the originality lays. I don't think anyone has proposed in a creepy park before. The rain was there because it's our thing" Jesse explained handing her a controller
"No it's not" Beca accepted the controller from him
"It is—What do you wanna play?" Jesse got up
"It's not-Anything violent" Beca said watching him go through cases of video games
"Bec, on our first date it rained, and the night we got back together and you told me you loved for the first time, it rained. Rain is our thing" Jesse loaded the game then sat back next to her.
"Fine, it's our thing" Beca groaned giving in.
"What's wrong with rain?"
"The word cheesy doesn't do it justice in this kind of situation, that's what's wrong with it"
"I'm cheesy" he used air quotation "and you love me. You'll grow to love it too"
"You're weird, nerd" Beca sat indian style when they started to play
"You did a capella in college, you don't get make fun of cheesiness, nerd" Jesse said looking at the screen
"Nuh-uh, don't bring a capella into this"
Jesse leaned against the couch and rested his feet on the coffee table.
"Bec, no matter what you say, it's still organized nerd singing"
"Agree to disagree" Beca said focusing on the game.
She reached for him to check his temperature and was relieved when his skin was warm.
"Told you I felt fine" Jesse took his eyes off the game to look at Beca. She leaned against the couch as well and curled up next to him. Jesse threw an arm over her shoulder and kissed the top of her head. "Thank you"
"For what?"
"For not saying no" he rested his cheek on her head
"What would have you done if I said no?" Beca asked
"Well, I have been preparing myself for it, I would have accepted it and never brought it up again"
"You would really do that?" She questioned in surprise
"I love you Bec, I'm sure it would suck not to have as my wife, but I would still have you."
Beca put down the controller and tilted her head to kiss him, putting as much love and passion as she could into it. Jesse put the controller to his left and cupped her face.
"I really hope you change my opinion about marriage Jesse" Beca said after she pulled away. She ran her fingers through his hair.
"I changed your opinion about love, didn't I? You'll see yourself that's more than a piece of paper" Jesse leaned in and kissed her.
"We're not getting married anytime soon, though" Beca pulled away
"Why?"
"My mother is getting married in six months from now. No fucking way I'm getting married the same year as my mother"
"Okay," Jesse shrugged
"When do we tell our parents? I mean Chloe already knows, which was very fast. I need to tell my parents before tabloids do it for me"
"Do you wanna do it now?" Jesse asked
"No, I'll call Chlo and ask her to keep it for herself"
"I'll do the same with Benj"
"What about Bumper?"
"He knew about this for a while and didn't even tell Amy. I'm pretty sure Benji told Emily and that's how Chloe knew."
"I should go text Chloe" Beca got up.
"I'll do the same with Benji, and Bumper just in case" Jesse pulled her down "later" he said to her ear then kissed her neck
"No" Beca moaned getting up again. "My parents can't know I got engaged from the media" she paced to her bag and pulled her phone.
"Go text your friends and stop staring at me" she said without looking up
Jesse sighed and got looking for his back bag "Where did you put my back bag?"
"I threw it over there" she pointed at the bag, it was on the floor next to a stool.
"Beca we have a dog, you don't leave stuff on the ground" Jesse walked to his back bag and picked it up
"Cheeseball is harmless" Beca shrugged putting down her phone.
"Finally" she said when the doorbell rang "I'm starved" she looked inside her bag for her wallet and walked to the front door.
'Don't tell anyone Bec and I got engaged' Jesse texted both Benji and Bumper then put his phone on the counter.
He walked to the fridge and pulled a couple of beer and sat on a stool waiting for Beca.
"How do we tell our parents?" Beca asked walking to Jesse.
"We either call, facetime, or go in person, you pick" He tilted his head and took the pizza boxes from her.
"I don't know about your family, but with mine a phone call would do" Beca grabbed a couple of plates and put them on the counter
"a phone call it is" Jesse put the pizza on the each plate.
"Bon appétit" Jesse smiled before he took a bite.
"you too" Beca said back sipping her beer.
"Since you don't wanna get married for another year, we should get married next January" Jesse mumbled before he swallowed "that way we could go to"
"Finland for our honeymoon, because you always wanted to see the aurora lights" Beca finished for him
"Yes" Jesse said in puzzlement "How did you know?"
"You told me." Beca bit into her pizza
"I have no memory of that" Jesse rested his elbow on the counter
"Of course you don't, you were drunk. You tell me a lot of things when you're drunk, mostly marriage stuff" Beca said thinking of the stuff he tells her "I stopped paying attention to what you say drunk a while ago, but this one stands out." She laughed at his facial expression
"You know, your ramble about marriage is kinda the reason I agreed to marry you" she played with the ring using her thumb. "I was expecting you to ask me at some point, because you won't shut about it when you're drunk. You warmed me up to marriage"
"Wow" Jesse's eyes went wide as her words sunk in.
"I googled the aurora lights and I'm on board for the Finland honeymoon, but you should know that I will not take care of your sorry ass if you do something stupid and get sick because of it"
"You don't really mean that" Jesse shrugged
"So you are planning on doing something crazy"
"I might jump in the Nordic water while in Finland"
"And spend the rest of your honeymoon with a cold? Yeah, good call Jesse" Beca mumbled inhaling the slice she hand in hand "I won't sleep with you if you have a cold" she shrugged
"Oh, please" Jesse sorted
"What you don't think I can go on without sex?"
"I know that you won't be able to resist all this" he gestured to himself while eating
"You're wrong" Beca gulped her beer. "You wanna bet?" she asked putting down her beer
"Do my ears deceive me or did Beca Mitchell propose a bet?" Jesse questioned "How long has it been since you last made a bet?"
"9 years"
"I never got why you hated bets so much" Jesse said in wonder "What happened the last time you made a bet?" Jesse arched an eyebrow
"I don't wanna talk about it" Beca cringed at a memory
"We'll leave that to another day," Jesse picked another slice.
"Yeah. You didn't answer me do you wanna bet?"
"Sure" Jesse shrugged "for how long?" he asked
Beca took a second to think.
"three-two weeks" Beca said hesitantly
"Isn't that too much?" Jesse asked, feeling confident, he knew that Beca will crack in the first week.
"No, two weeks without sex for you mister" she stopped to think for a minute "starting tomorrow"
"Good thinking" Jesse laughed "We still have some celebrating to do"
"What happens if you win, what do I get?"
"Nothing. I still hate bets, this one is for my pride, there's no winning or anything"
"I'm gonna get you to tell me what happened the last time you placed a bet" Jesse narrowed his eyes at her before he bit his pizza.
