Beca's POV
Over the Christmas break I had been drunk twice, which was not very pretty, it was now back to school and I honestly didn't mind having to go back because as soon as school's over I know that I am one step closer to losing Jesse, I never thought I would say this but I don't want high school to end, these past five months have been the best of my life, I've met the most wonderful people on earth and I have also met the guy of my dreams even though he's leaving after summer, who says first love lasts anyway?
"Beca?..."
"Hello? Beca?" Jesse snapped me out of my thoughts by waving his hand in front of my face
"Huh?...Oh I was just…..thinking" I replied distractedly, I glanced down at our intertwined fingers and smiled, I shuffled a little closer to him as we walked, He squeezed my hand reassuringly
"I know what you're thinking Bec" He claimed
"Yeah?" I asked, He nodded and I sighed
"How did you know?" I sighed
"You may not realise it, but you're so easy to read especially when you're thinking, Trust me Beca everything will work out" He reassured as we reached the entrance of the school gates, "I don't understand how he will make this work, I guess I'm going to have to trust him" I thought to myself.
The bell rang and we quickly made our way to the main doors and headed upstairs to homeroom.
"Miss Mitchell, Mr Swanson, you are both 2 minutes late" said Mrs Roy, our homeroom teacher
"Sorry Mrs Roy" apologised Jesse as he led me by my hand to our table with the rest of the group huddled around it
"Jesus 2 minutes, seriously?" I muttered under my breath as I slumped into the seat in-between Adam and Jesse.
"Hi, I'm new here" I heard a female voice and glanced over to the door where there was a girl walking in and talking to Mrs Roy, there was something about her that I recognised but I couldn't quite put my finger on it, I squinted my eyes at the back of her head as she talked to the teacher, my eyes grew wide once I realised who it was
"Adam?..."
"Adam!"
"Adam! For fucks sake listen to me" I nearly yelled, tapping him furiously, he whipped his head in my direction and looked annoyed that I interrupted his conversation with Jessica
"What?!" he asked Angrily, I pointed at the girl
"What about her-Holy shit! That's Alyssa" He almost shouted
"Wait woa, who the hell's Alyssa?" Asked Jessica, with a twang of jealousy in her voice
"Adam's ex-girlfriend that is a complete bitch!" I explained, clinching my fists slightly
"Adam!" Called Alyssa excitedly as she quickly ran up to our table, Adam slumped in his seat trying to hide, I groaned and did the same as Adam as she grabbed a seat and sat next to him.
"Yay look who's here!" I said sarcastically as Jesse wrapped his arm around my waist to stop me from getting carried away
"Oh I didn't notice you there….Beca" she spat out my name like it was poison in her mouth
"Wait rewind, who the hell are you?" Asked Stacie
"Um hey, I'm Alyssa, Adam's-"
"Bitch" I cut her off but then realised how weird that sounded
"Adam's bitch?" Scoffed Amy trying to hold back her laughter, Alyssa glared at me and I just sent her a sarcastic smile
"No she's Adam's ex, but I call her "The Bitch" I explained trying to stop from laughing, the rest of the table laughed except Alyssa
"That's funny calling someone a bitch when you're the perfect definition of one" she shot back and looked around everybody waiting for someone to laugh but everybody just shook their heads at her, Jesse's grip tightened around my waist, I could tell he was getting irritated, I was about to open my mouth to say something but Mrs Roy interrupted me
"Okay attention! Class!" she yelled above the noise after she clapped her hands twice, we all swivelled our heads around to look at her
"As you already know, you are all half way through your senior year at high school" She explained, "You have probably already been told but the Senior Prom will be held near the end of May" She added, I groaned and leaned on Jesse
"Ugh Prom" I spat
"What's wrong with Prom? It just gives you an excuse to dress up in a sexy dress for me" He joked pointing at himself
"It's not just about you y'know" I shot back playfully
"Now don't be the last to buy you're tickets!" Said Mrs Roy before she sat back down at her desk
"You better get the tickets quick!" Stacie warned Donald
"Okay don't worry babe, Jesus Christ" he held his hands up in surrender
"So what kind of tie should I wear?" Adam asked Jessica, waggling his eyebrows
"You call that an invitation?" Said Jessica, raising an eyebrow
"oooooooooooo" we all chorused except Alyssa who was looking increasingly jealous of Jessica, The bell rang a couple of seconds later and we all stood up to go to our next class, Adam and Stacie were in my next class which happened to be Math.
"Okay see you later Bec" said Jesse as he gave me a kiss on the cheek and left to his class
"So guys what do you have next?" asked Alyssa from behind us
"Math with Mr Smith" Explained Stacie dryly, Adam, Stacie and I walked side by side through the corridors as Alyssa trailed behind us
"So do i!" she replied excitedly, she found a space next to me in our line, Adam, Stacie and I groaned, unfortunately for Adam, nobody sat next to him in Math so most likely he would have to sit next to Alyssa.
"What the fuck's wrong with Jessica guys?" asked Adam
"Adam, you're completely oblivious, girls like to be asked to prom properly not just asking them what type of tie you should wear" explained Stacie like it was obvious, we arrived at the class and Adam and Stacie walked in, Alyssa was about to but I grabbed her arm and pulled her back out the class, I stood toe to toe to her and looked up at her
"Look, why are you only a bitch in front of Jessica?" I hissed
"Who's Jessica?" she asked obliviously
"Adam's girlfriend" I spat defensively
"Oh that girl that rejected the prom invite? I would have accepted it from Adam, I guess she's just being a bitch" she said with that familiar bitchy look on her face
"Look bitch" I grabbed her arm "Jessica is like a sister to me and if you do anything to hurt her or my brother, I swear to god" I hissed letting go of her arm and walking into the class and taking my seat next to Stacie, Alyssa took the empty seat next to Adam which happened to be directly in front of us.
20 minutes of the class had went by and I was bored out of my mind, I leaned my elbow on the desk and held my cheek in my hand, I glanced over to Stacie, who was texting under the table, I sighed and looked ahead again, I picked up my pencil and twisted it between my fingers, I must have flicked it too hard because it flew out my fingers and hit Adam in the back of the head
"Oh shit" I muttered under my breath, Stacie must have heard me because she looked up and sniggered
"Ow why the hell did you throw a pencil at me?" hissed Adam as he spun around in his seat
"Why were you in the firing line of my pencil" I retorted lamely, he started to turn back around
"Dick" we both said in unison, he turns around with wide eyes
"Bitch" we said in unison again, now my eyes turned as wide as his, we slowly started standing up
"What the fuck?" we asked in unison, we were both now standing up eyeballing each other getting gradually louder
"Stop it!"
"Holy shit!"
"What the hell is happening?" we continued to say everything in unison, I heard Stacie go into hysterics and struggle to stay on her seat
"Stop copying me!"
"Wow you sound like a 7 year old" we continued saying things at the same time and everyone in the room was staring at us except Stacie who was almost on the floor
"How the hell is this happening?!"
"I'm so confused!"
"Miss Mitchell, Mr Mitchell out now!" Said Mr Smith sternly, we both scowled at each other and made our way to the door
"You're twins get used to it!" yelled Stacie right before I opened the door
"Miss Conrad you can join them for yelling across the classroom" Called Mr Smith
"How can you send me out for that?" huffed Stacie as ahe got up to follow us
"Anymore of that Miss Conrad then you will be recieving an after school detention" He explained pointing his finger accusingly at Stacie as she sighed frustratedly and swung the door open.
"What the hell happened?" I asked and Stacie just began laughing again as we all took a seat on one of the chairs outside
"You were copying me" said Adam sticking his nose in the air and folding his arms, I rolled my eyes at him and leaned my head back on my seat.
"So you guys going to prom?" asked Stacie out of the blue as we all stared at this same wall, I stayed silent and waited for Adam to answer, I've always hated dresses I don't see the point in dressing in for one night and then never wearing the dress again
"I need to find a way to ask Jessica, I don't think she's gonna talk to me again after I screwed up" replied Adam saving me for having to answer
"Huh well good luck with that, What about you Bec?" She asked, I slowly turned my head around to her and looked at her with a blank expression on my face, I shrugged my shoulders at her
"Well good luck letting Jesse down, he will most definitely ask you to prom" she said looking into the window of the other classroom, I groaned and closed my I eyes tight, of course Jesse's going to ask me to prom he is the most cheesiest, romantic guy around, I shot one eye open when I heard Adam clear his throat, stand up and started walking down the hall
"Where are you going?" I asked him
"I'm going to pee do you need to know the rest of my life story?" He joked as he walked around the corner, I stood up and walked to the window of the classroom next to ours, I peeked in and saw Jessica
"If that Alyssa says anything to her I swear to god" I said through my gritted teeth, I felt the presence of Stacie walk up behind me and placed her hand on my shoulder
"Are we talking about Jessica?" asked Stacie as we continued to peek into the window at Jessica's sweet and innocent face
"Yeah, I can tell that bitch is trying to steal Adam" I sighed as we walked back over to our seats
"Adam would do anything in the world for Jessica I'm sure he won't let her get in the way" Assured Stacie as she took her seat
"Yeah Adam is a dick sometimes but he's smart when it comes to things like that" I folded my arms and threw myself on the chair so hard it started tipping backwards, I grabbed onto Stacie's arm to save myself but it failed and only caused Stacie to fall on top of me
"Fuck sake Beca" she cursed as she lay on top of me inches away from my face, we started giggling uncontrollably
"Hey I didn't know you guys were cheating on your boyfriends with each other" Joked Adam as he returned and stood and watched us
"Um Stacie?" I asked
"Hmm?"
"You're crushing me" I breathed out in pain, she clambered off me and climbed back on to her chair
"Are you trying to say I'm fat?" she joked, I scoffed
"You fat? You've got to be kidding me, I meant I'm literally the height of your leg" I joked and she laughed along. The bell rang and we quickly went into the class to collect our stuff as soon as we were about to leave the door we were caught by Mr Smith
"Nu-uh not so fast, you three back here" we all groaned and walked backwards towards his desk, we spun around and came face to face with him
"You three were disrupting the lesson so that means all three of you are receiving an after school detention" he explained
"What?!" we all yelled in unison, we heard sniggering coming from the door and we spun around to see Alyssa standing there, all three of us glared at her as she ran off before she got caught off the teacher
"Library, after school, don't be late!" he warned before we all sighed and walked out the class
"Hey!" called a familiar voice from behind us, I spun on my heel and saw Jesse jogging towards us, he reached us and wrapped his arm around me, and I removed it and continued walking by his side
"I'm not in the mood Jesse" I said frustrated without looking up at him
"What's wrong?" he said softly
"I don't wanna talk about it" he kept silent after that, it must have confused him because I have always been so open with him ever since we started dating but I've got so much on my mind right now, summer, Alyssa, Jesse leaving, prom, Jesse leaving, detention, Jesse leaving, basically Jesse is on my mind all the time but I really just want to keep it to myself. As I arrived at my next class, which was English I didn't turn to Jesse
"Bye" I mumbled as I walked into the class and took my seat behind Adam and Jessica, I sighed as I threw my bag on the floor and slumped on the chair, Adam swivelled round and leaned his elbow on my desk
"What's up with you and Jesse?" He asked actually sounded concerned of my love life
"It's everything putting me in a bad mood especially Alyssa" I grimaced at the sound of her name
"Hey Jessica" I tried to get her attention and she turned to me distractedly
"What's up?" she asked giving me her full attention now
"If Alyssa says or does anything to you please tell me it will give me a perfect excuse to punch her little bitchy face" I said through my gritted teeth and grinded my fist into the desk
"Yeah, sure" she laughed
"Hey Jessica….." Adam begun but Jessica ignored him and turned back around, He held his hands up in frustration at me and I just shrugged.
About 15 minutes into the class I was lost in my thoughts, Alyssa was really pissing me off, She's not even been here for half a day but I already know she is still the same as she was in my old school, I know for a fact I will get pressured into going to prom and I can't stop thinking about how quick it is till the end of senior year. I noticed Adam raised his hand
"Yes Mr Mitchell? Would you like to write the answer on the board?" Asked the teacher, holding out a pen in Adam's direction, I scoffed quietly as he stood up and walked towards the front of the class "he doesn't know the answer to that" I thought to myself, he took the pen from the teacher and started to write something, though it wasnt the answer, once he had done he smiled at Jessica, the board read
"JESSICA WILL YOU PLEASE GO TO PROM WITH ME? Xx" all the girls in the room "awed" I saw Jessica's head nod slightly and Adam's smile grew bigger as he walked back to his desk with open arms and hugged her tightly.
When class had finished Jessica and Adam walked out with all smiles and holding each others hands, I trailed behind them and we stopped at Jesse's classroom, he stormed through the door looking as angry as I've ever seen him before
"What's wrong Jess?" Jessica asked him as I stayed silent
"After school detention, because I was arguing with Alyssa about Beca" he explained and I looked up at him at the mention of my name
"You don't have to defend me all the time you know" I mumbled
"Of course I do, I'm your boyfriend" he defended
"I don't like to rely on people to fight my own battles, where is the bitch anyway?" I asked getting increasingly angry, he pointed his thumb backwards, I spun around and came face to face with Alyssa
"Well, well, well, look who it is" she smirked, oh that stupid smirk I want to smack off her face so bad
"Look let me explain this again because you don't seem to understand, you stay away from my friends, my brother or my boyfriend" I hissed as my nostrils flared at her
"You know you look so unattractive when you scowl, not that you look attractive any other time" she snorted
"You can talk" hissed Jessica
"Shut it bitch" Alyssa shot back, Adam got angry and stood in front of Jessica to make sure she doesn't get into anymore trouble
"If you say another bad word against Beca-" Jesse jumped infront of me but I pushed him back
"I told you, I don't need protecting"
"I was just trying to help" he said and hung his head
"I don't need your help, you're not my-" I started to yell but clapped my hand over my mouth once I realised what I was just about to say
"Not your what?! Not your boyfriend ? Because it sure seems like it the way you're acting today, this is not the Beca I date" he said in a raised voice
"We'll what can I say you are too overprotective it's unreal!" I yelled back
"Sorry for wanting to make sure my girlfriend is safe!"
"You know what?..." I yelled "...just leave me alone, all of you"
I whispered as I felt the tears build up in my eyes and I stormed off.
