2. She has those little orange goldfish crackers EVERYWHERE

At first Jesse thinks its really cute, they are half-sitting half-laying on her bed, a month after the ICCA's, with his laptop balanced on his lap and Moulin Rouge playing and juice pouches at hand. Jesse is explaining the movie as his laptop loads it up when he sees her reach up into one of her shelves and bring out a paper bag with an ever familiar smiling goldfish in the label.

"Huh" he says, eying the package in her hands as she pops a few into her mouth. She answers him by arching an eyebrow (which she does so perfectly he sometimes wonders if she sits in front of a mirror practicing it).

"What's with the kid snack there Bec?" he finally says, a smile tugging at his lips.

"Says the boy who carries juice pouches everywhere" it affectively ends all his come backs and they both settle deeper into her sea of pillows (he tries to sneak a few, but Beca always pulls the bag away no matter how much he pouts).

A few days later they are sitting in their spot out in the quad when she pulls out a zip-lock bag full of the little fishy shaped snack (which he manages to steal when she isn't looking).

"Do you carry these with you everywhere or something?" he teases, trying to sneak a few more.

Beca rolls her eyes and moves the bag out of his reach.

Suddenly he seems to find them almost everywhere. There are half finished bags of it in her drawers (which he finds while in search for a spare pencil -coughcondoncough-), in clear zip-lock bags that always seem to be in her bags (he has learned that when she isn't feeling up to sharing that he can always sneak it away and hold it over his head, because Beca is just to short to reach it and it amuses him so much to see her try).

Its when he finds left over bags in his room, near his desk and bed, the little crumbs all there is left from their movie sessions, that he starts thinking that she has a serious addiction. Sometimes she even has the funny colored ones, he always makes faces at them because goldfish are so obviously orange.

After their first fight (it happens just before they are done for summer, and it's over something so ridiculously stupid he never really remembers what it is) he camps outside her dorm for close to three hours until she shows up (her red rimmed eyes cause his heart to almost stop beating) arms crossed and arched brows. He offers her a 66 oz. carton of the stuff as a peace offering.

Her lips taste like the little treats later that night, when he kisses her goodnight, and he thinks he will never like another cracker so much.


Thank you so much for everyone who read, added this story to their favorites, are following, and left a review.

I know these chapters seem a little short, but they are suppose to be little thoughts Jesse has and I don't want them to drag.

Please leave a review and if anyone has any ideas I would appreciate them, I have thirteen chapters planned out so far.
