This is a flashback to move-in day.
The second rule of having roommates: Buy Earplugs.
"Beck, man, I don't think this is gonna fit through the door." Andre tilts his head to the side, as if he's envisioning how best to angle the bed frame. His friend stands across from him, holding the other side as he stands in his bedroom.
"Nah, we can get it. We're just gonna have to edge it in leg by leg," Beck says, determined to make his plan work. Though their new four-bedroom apartment had come fully furnished, Beck and his girlfriend had decided to move her full-size bed into his room so that their combined mattresses would create a king.
"How's it coming?" The girl in question asks, walking past them as she carries a box of things for her room (which will just be used as a study area once Beck's desk joins hers in it.)
"We're gettin' there," Andre answers, keeping his eyes on the metal frame that he and Beck are lifting.
"What I don't get," Tori says, emerging from her room to watch the guys, "is why you guys can't just share Beck's bed. I mean, you've slept in a twin together for like, five years—and this is two fulls put together. Do you really need all this extra space to sleep?"
Jade furrows her eyebrows before. "Who said it's for sleeping?" She asks, disappearing into her room so she can crack her smile.
Tori rolls her eyes and silently chastises herself for even questioning Jade's motives. Beck lets out a laugh and Andre shakes his head. "Trust me, Tori. As Beck's freshman year roommate, I can personally assure you that you'll be very, very happy to have your own room on the other side of the apartment."
Beck's cheeks flush just slightly; he and Jade had hardly followed the "No Sex While Andre's In The Room" rule, as Andre had frequently woken up in the middle of the night to the sounds of Jade's not-so-quiet moans and Beck's bed rocking against the wall. As much as they tried to keep the volume down, they usually couldn't help the inevitable noise created by their sex life.
Thirty minutes later, when the two full beds are side-by-side and Andre and Tori have returned to their side of the apartment to unpack, Jade begins tearing the king-size sheets out of the hard plastic wrapping. As she and Beck work together to make the bed, they've just barely laid the covers on when he comes around to her side.
"You," he says, wrapping his arms around her from behind, "did a fantastic job of picking out these sheets." Jade leans into his embrace as she starts to feel him kiss her shoulder and inner neck. "I think we're really going to like them," Beck whispers, and then she's turning in his arms to kiss his lips. When she starts to unbutton his shirt, he breaks away to shut and lock the door—and returns quickly to pull her top off.
Within five minutes, all clothes are on the ground and his face is between her long, pale legs. Jade is in heaven as Beck skillfully works her in the ways he's so familiar with. His name escapes her mouth in a moan three or four times over before she comes, and Beck wipes his mouth as he kisses back up to her lips.
"Care to test the thickness of these walls?" He asks, grinning as his girlfriend lets her breathing slow.
"Do me," Jade dares him, spreading her legs again so he can position himself at her entrance.
"Well, we've gotta break in the new sheets somehow," Beck jokes, leaning down to kiss her before beginning to push inside. Jade's laugh turns into a sigh of pleasure as Beck starts moving, and her arms immediately loop under his so she can get a tight grip on his shoulder blades. He groans at the new contact—at the feeling of her body closer to his—and at this point Tori loses all hope that she's just been imagining the sounds in her head.
She decides not to say anything yet, and continues unpacking her boxes while trying to ignore the noises. Unfortunately for the brunette, though, the sounds are getting increasingly louder. They escalate steadily, in fact, until there's a period of nonstop moans and bed vs. wall-ness that can surely be heard throughout the entire apartment.
Tori drops the item in her hands and throws her arms up exasperatedly. "Seriously?! Already?!"
"Yep," she hears Andre answer her rhetorical question from his room next door.
Damn, these walls really are thin.
"We only moved in an hour ago!" Tori cries. "How are they already doing this?!" Lucky for the brunette, her shouts of frustration prevent her from hearing the climactic noise that fills the walls of Jade and Beck's room.
Jade, who had finished on top, rolls off of her boyfriend and lets her panting subside for a few seconds. "Have we ever had sex on a king bed?"
"I don't think so, no," Beck answers, propping himself up on his elbow to face her. "That was amazing, right? I mean it's always great, but that was...that was better than great."
"So much better," she agrees. "I think it's how much space we have to roll around. That was fun."
Beck smiles at her and her heart stops beating for a second. "I love you," he says, tracing an absent shape on her chest with his finger.
Jade pounces forward to kiss him, pushing him onto his back again as he holds her in his arms. "I love you, too. Think they heard us?"
Beck shrugs. "We haven't gotten any complaints. These walls are probably pretty thick."
Jade grins and kinks an eyebrow. "Good. Again?"
Beck laughs. "Until we're too tired to roll anymore."
