After obtaining all the information about bailing Beca out, Jesse started all the paperwork to get the girl released. Close to forty-five minutes later, paperwork was completed and release papers were prepared for signatures with the fine to be paid. Jesse was relieved knowing she was going to get out shortly.
Beca was feeling a bit antsy with all the time that passed and being there with the other chicks in the cell. She looked up when she heard some footsteps with what sounded like some keys rattling and an officer standing outside the cell with keys in his hand.
"Mitchell?" he asked. Beca stood immediately with her name called. The officer unlocked the cell and Beca stepped out standing by the wall. Her nerves got the best of her not knowing what was happening.
"You're being release. Bail has been posted and there are papers for you to sign." She sighed in relief. The walked the hall going through the double doors back into the main entrance area. She was happy and couldn't wait to see her friends being grateful that Chloe was on the other side of the room. Much to her surprise, she didn't see Chloe, Aubrey or Stacie. In fact the person she seen standing by the desk was Jesse. Jesse Swanson. She thought to herself "how the fuck did he know?"
When Jesse looked up, he seen Beca across the room and he smiled at her. He was preparing for the girl's wrath.
"Jesse, what the hell are you doing here? How did you find out?" Beca questioned staring at her friend. The officer asked her to sit and sign the papers then she may leave.
"We'll talk when you're done Becs." Jesse looked at his watch seeing in was 1:30 in the morning. He suggested a cup of coffee at Java Joe's up the street which Beca agreed. She gathered her things and they made their way out the door.
The cool breeze was welcoming after all the stench from the cell she was in. Jessie felt kind of nervous and his hands were a bit sweaty.
"So…uh…When I closed my shoppe I decided to walk tonight when I had seen them take you out of the squad car. I was shocked to say the least. Couldn't imagine why…" Jesse was rambling at this point. "Of course, I wanted to see what I could do to help."
Surprisingly, Beca didn't snap like she normally would. This time she was pretty calm about it. She turned her head and gave a small peck on his cheek. "Thank you, Jesse."
Jesse's heart rate increased at the kiss where it burns on his skin. Beca kissed him. Beca. Kissed. Him. His mind temporarily became mush. The rest of the walk there was in a comfortable silence. Jesse opened the door for her and the grabbed a booth in the back. They ordered two coffees, black for her and cream and sugar for him.
The conversation consisted of the events at the mall with the girls. Jesse chuckled a bit by Beca's antics. He thought to himself she'll never change. The brunette yawned indicating the late hour and that it was time to hit the hay.
"It's 2:30. Let me go home with you…I mean take you home. Ya know, make sure your safe and all." Jesse stammered. Beca laughed.
"You ok, Jess?" He felt his heart drop to the floor with his babbling like an idiot.
"I'm good. Yeah, I'm good." Jesse left a tip on the table and they walk out the door. It would be faster walking than waiting to hail a cab. Beca lived about 5 blocks away which would only take the two about 15 to 20 minutes to walk.
Close to 3 am at the front door of Beca's apartment, the brunette thought since it was late and Jesse helped her, the least she can do was let him crash at her place for the night.
"Jess, it's late. You wanna just crash here for the night?" Beca offered.
"That'd be great Becs. Thanks."
