Beca POV
I turned the TV off. I'd been back at the house for a couple of hours now, I was still trying to process the information that Jesse had told me. How could my nerdy, singing and dancing Jesse get some girl knocked up? I was glad that he didn't have a child, but I was so hurt and angry that he hadn't told me? We've been together for nearly a year now, I thought I knew him. Obviously I didn't though, he had told me how he used to be a completely different person, how could this be true? I decided to go and make lunch, I hadn't eaten since last night and it was making me feel sick. Jesse's kitchen was modern and beautiful; he had a large walk in fridge which is straight where I headed. I opened the door and stepped inside. I searched the walls for something to eat before I came across a ham salad sandwich. I grabbed it and stepped back outside the fridge. I sat down at the breakfast bar and tucked into the sandwich. I was still so confused about the whole situation, I wasn't sure if things could ever go back to how they used to be.
I wash just washing up my plate when I heard the front door open. I was surprised that someone was here, I was also scared that somebody could be breaking in. My fear was soon diminished when I saw James appear round the corner.
"Oh hey, I wasn't expecting you back so soon, is everything okay?" I asked him drying my hands.
"Yeah everything is fine, Amber should be coming home this evening but I was bored there and I've got work in a couple of hours, Dad wanted me to come back so I didn't miss my shift." He explained as he poured himself a coke.
"Oh that's great about Amber!" I said as I sat down on the stool, I wanted to know about Jesse but I didn't want to ask.
"Hey Beca, I overheard Jesse telling Glen about what happened between you two, if it's none of my business then please stop me, but that really is the old Jesse. He made some stupid mistakes in high school, but in his last year there and since he moved to Barden he has completely changed," he stepped closer to me as if trying to make sure I was listening, "He loves you Beca, that's why he didn't tell you, it didn't mean anything to him. Trent has hated him since the incident but it isn't all once sided, Jesse didn't do it randomly, he wanted to get back at Trent. Yeah admittedly he didn't mean to get Kim pregnant, but he didn't want to sleep with her, he done it to hurt Trent." I was taken aback by all this information, why hadn't Jesse explained it like this? I could feel myself getting overwhelmed by it all. I was curious though, what could Trent have done for Jesse to act in such a terrible manner.
"What did Trent do to make Jesse do that?" I asked him, I got up and grabbed myself a coke.
"Trent was on the football team, as were me and Glen. He was the captain and he didn't like us so one day during practice he took us down. I broke my leg in 3 places, Glen only got a broken rib. I was good at football, coach expected great things from me but after that, I was unable to play again, my leg would be too weak, he ruined my career, so Jesse ruined his life." James looked distraught as he explained. Suddenly I felt sorry for James, and Jesse. I stood up and hugged James. I needed to speak to Jesse; he needed to know that I knew the whole story. I needed to make things right.
"You should go and get ready for work, I'll drive you, I need to get some things from the mall anyways" I told him as I headed out of the kitchen. I needed to make things up to him, I just needed to figure out how.
Jesse POV
I climbed into the car beside Amber and James. It felt good to be taking her home at last. The doctor assured us that there would be no lasting effects of the drug, she'd just be feeling a bit crap for the next few days. Now that Amber was sorted, I needed to concentrate on Beca. Things had ended badly with us when she left, I couldn't lose her, not over something so small. I lent my head against the window; I must've looked like one of those sad love scenes from a movie. When we pulled up I glanced towards the house, it was dark inside. I was worried suddenly, where could Beca be? My car was parked on the drive so she had to be in. I helped amber out of the car, Glen went to open the door while I followed behind. I looked in the kitchen, she wasn't there. I was about to head to the living room when Amber tapped me on the arm.
"Jesse, can you carry me to my room please, my legs still feel funny." She asked croakily. I smiled and picked her up. She was light as a feather so I didn't struggle as I climbed up the stairs. I pushed her door open with my foot and put her down on her bed. She grabbed my arm and pulled me into a hug. "Thank you Jesse, for everything, now go and sort out whatever is on your mind," she whispered quietly giving me a quick kiss on the cheek. I honestly had an amazing little sister. I left her to get changed and sort herself out. I decided to head to my room, maybe Beca was in there. I walked down the hall, thoughts racing through my mind with each step. I turned the handle of my door and opened it. The sight I saw before me took my breath away. My room was full of twinkling fairy lights, rose petals scattered across the floor and my bed. Beca was stood in the middle of my room, she was holding a blue box. I stepped inside and closed the door behind me.
"What's all this?" I asked, gobsmacked.
"This is me, saying sorry. James told me everything, the whole story about what happened, I never gave you a chance to explain the full story. Yes I was upset and hurt, I thought I knew you and when you told me about her, you felt like a stranger to me. I over reacted and I nearly lost you, I'm sorry baby, I Love You, do you forgive me?" She had clearly prepared this speech and I was taken aback by it if I'm honest. She looked at me, tears in her eyes. Did she really think this was her fault?
"Babe, you shouldn't have to be sorry, I should've given you the whole story and I should've told you sooner, we're meant to be a team, teams don't keep secrets. I have nothing to forgive you for, I should be asking for forgiveness. I love you so much, I was terrified I had ruined it!" I confessed as I wrapped my arms around her waist.
"You haven't ruined anything, I couldn't ever let you go over this, the past is the past, lets just try to focus on the future from now on yeah?" she sounded so happy as she spoke now.
"Yes lets concentrate on the future, our future," I nodded, I pulled her in for a long passionate kiss. She pulled away and had a smirk across her face.
"Well since everything is okay now, I have another surprise for you," and with that she slipped her arms out of the shirt she was wearing and let it fall to the floor, then she unbuttoned her shorts. She was no stood in front of me in a sexy lacy green bra with a matching thong. I was going to be in for a good night!
*well they made up, obviously! I really like this chapter, its happier and more romantic than the previous ones. Please let me know what you guys think! Happy reading and happy reviewing!*
