Chapter 16

I woke up thanks of my alarm. I didn't want to go to school and left my bed to go outside and face the cold. I was warm in my bed, in my bed nobody could break my heart or hurt me. Oh my god, I'm sounding so lame. Why he could do that? He entered in my head in just a week and I can say we were really close. There was a knock on my door. "Beca, you're going to be late for school. Again" That was my dad remembering me my daily routine. "Coming." I was not in the mood to go to school, to be honest; I'm never in the mood. But today was for real. I stepped out of bed and tried to stand up when I stepped on something. I raised my foot to see glass under it, and my phone near the wall. "Great." I said to myself taking the pieces of glass and putting tape on it. For my luck, the phone still worked.

I waited on the school stop for about 3 minutes since I was late. As always, everybody was screaming and throwing papers while 4 or 6 persons tried to finish their homework. I decided to walk and be late for my first period, I had science anyways. The walk gave me time to think better the things, to clear my mind. It was a lonely walk, but comfortable. I arrived school about 20 minutes later and entered the room in the middle of the class. Chloe and Stacie raised had their eyes on the paperwork until the teacher said my name. Mrs. Srsan wasn't happy. "Late again Mitchell." She said singing the paper that said I was late. The girls raised their gaze and smiled. "I'm not happy" she said giving me the paper. "Believe me, me either." I said looking right into her eyes. She took that as bad attitude and sent me straight to detention.

Hours went by slow, I was tired and I couldn't wait until I go back to home and cuddle in my bed with my sheets. It was lunch time already and from the door I could see Stacie's hand and Chloe's motioning me to come to their table and I did as they said. "Sit Becs, you know we don't bite." Chloe said winking at me. "Where were you in the break?" Chloe said and Stacie nodded in agreement with half of her salad hanging on the corner of her mouth. "Stace you have…" I said trying to tell her that she has lettuce on her mouth. "Wut?" She said innocently. Chloe and I looked at each other and couldn't hold out laugh. "You have a damn lettuce on your tooth." Chloe said between laughs. "And out of your mouth." I added. She realized that half of school was looking at her because of us and she cleaned her mouth. "Ha ha ha. Laugh at Stacie, is free. Right?"

"Anyways, how's the thing with Jesse, you didn't text me back." My face dropped, my smile disappeared and Chloe seemed to notice it, but I wasn't going to show my hurt. "Huh? Oh, Jesse? He has a girlfriend." I said looking at my lunch. Remember when we throw pillows at each other? Well, this time was different. A tomato with lettuce came to my face. Stacie spit out the food she had in her mouth. "WHAT?! WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPENED WITH THE DANCE?." I shrugged my shoulders in response with my eyes still on my lunch. Both girls were silent for a minutes, I knew what they wanted and I knew they weren't going to ask. "Just ask Stace." I said with a sigh. "How. Why and What happened? And when was it?" Stacie asked.

"It started after the Riff Off, I was having a good time with Sebastian…" Stacie raised her eyebrows and Chloe shook her head telling her nothing happened. "AS FRIENDS." I added. "And we were on his car's bonnet. He was drunk, I had a few beers and he was going to kiss me when Jesse broke his nose. I yelled at Jesse and got mad and walked away." I saw that Staci was going to say something when I raised my finger stopping her, "I had my reasons." Stacie motioned me to explain. "I saw him wrapping his arms around Maddie and he kissed her. I didn't know I was hurt or that I had a crush for him until I then. Then the next day I went to my first day of my new work in the radio station, which sucks, and guess what. Jesse works there. He asked if we could talk and he said he had nothing with Maddie and when we get to his house, since Maddie babysits his brother, she came from inside and kissed him. That's all" Stacie was speechless, I don't know if she was like that because I told her about my feelings or because of Jesse's new relationship. "She also told him that she has a crush on him." Chloe added looking at me with a smile which disappeared with the next sentence "And that was before Maddie kissed Jesse, so Beca was exposed and Jesse literally crushed her." I nodded "For that people call them crushes." I agreed. "But…I. I thought, wait." She couldn't say a word. "I knew, I sensed Jesse was crazy in love with you. I'm never wrong with that. It was obvious."

"Well." I said taking a bite of my apple. "You were wrong. Boom" I said leaving the cafeteria. I went to the only Place of the school where I like to be alone. I sit under the tree with my apple and my backpack; I took my laptop out of it and started to work on my last mix. A few minutes later, a received a text but I wasn't going to check it. When I'm with my music nobody should bother me, at least they wanted to die that day. I started giving up on that damn song that didn't fit in the track and I took my phone to check the text.

13.52PM

Sebastian

-You just leave me yesterday L No goodbye? You owe me a talk ;) :*

"Damn, he uses more emojis that Chloe." I said to myself. I was still thinking about giving him a try, he's not that bad. He's not even bad.

You

-I know, I just forgot something I had to do.

Sebastian

-Can we meet today?

You

-Ugh I have to work until 8 at the radio station

Sebastian

-Oh, no problem with that ;)

School finished at 3.35PM and I walked alone my way back home. I prepared some of my pen drives with my mixes on it to take it to the radio station.

*At the radio station*

The first hour was lonely and comfortable like the first time, but it was boring since I only had to stack CD's. It was almost my break when Jesse arrived. I knew he saw me, but I acted like I didn't notice him and kept doing my work looking for the damn box of this CD. "It's your break, Becky." I heard Jesse trying to hold his laughter and I was getting furious. "And you are early for being you." The British said to Jesse, before Luke could turn around I called his name. "Hey Luke." He stopped in the door frame and looked at me. "It's Beca, not Becky." I said walking backwards to the door. I went outside for my beautiful 25minutes of freedom I had and let my hair fly in the wind. That fun is my break, I know.

I went back to stack CD's trying to ignore to Jesse for another hour, he was still staring at me with a mix of hurt and happy in his face. I tried hard to act like I didn't see him, but it was so uncomfortable and I couldn't find the box of the CD, It was getting to my nerves. "WHAT?" I said facing him and throwing the CD into the box full of CD's without stacking. "Look Becs, i…" He was about to finish his sentence when there was a knock on the glass door and both turned to the door. It was Sebastian "Thanks god, he save me." I said to myself.

A/N: Short chapter. I know. Maybe full of mistakes 'cause I don't have too much time to correct it. Anyways, Boom Jesse and Sebastian meet again but with Beca between. What would happen? I don't know, you'll have to wait at least two days…if somebody is still reading this. Sorry for the late update. I think this is how its gonna be from now on. Only Fridays when I don't have to study I'll update and the Saturdays and Sundays too…and if I have another free day too. Hope y'all like it. Please review and let me know you're still alive
