It's All About Finding Yourself - Chapter 19
Wednesday After School.
"Do you guys know that Stacie managed to convince Aubrey to have a party at her house tomorrow night since her parents are out of town till Friday?" Beca asked Jesse and her girlfriend as she tore her eyes away from her Instagram feed. The brunette was sitting on the hood of Jesse's Camaro whilst the said boy was underneath the car, checking out what needs done and Chloe was just leaning against the door.
"Yeah she was talking about it today, just the glee club's invited right?" Jesse's voice was slightly muffled from being under the car.
"Do you really think Aubrey would let anyone else from school into that fricking mansion of her's." Chloe chuckled, toying with her wristband.
"Her dad drives a fucking Bentley." Beca added without looking up from her phone.
"God that car's beautiful." Jesse swooned.
"They're probably the richest family in this town."
"At least Aubrey isn't like those stuck up rich kids." Chloe shrugged.
"Marry her Jess, we need the cash." Beca joked with a laugh.
"I ain't a gold digger Bec." Jesse laughed which made Chloe giggle.
"Aw dude!" Beca exclaimed with a huge grin, quickly flying off topic.
"What?" Jesse and Chloe asked in unison.
"I'm so proud of you big cuz, haven't talked to you in ages, can't wait to see you and Jess at Uncle John's wedding." Beca read off a comment on her most recent picture she posted on Instagram of her and Chloe sharing a sweet kiss.
"Oh my god, was that Caleb?" Jesse wheeled himself out from beneath the car to be met with Beca looking down at him from the hood.
"Mhm." Beca replied as she tapped on the account 'calebmitchell'. Jesse got up and leaned against the hood beside Beca and Chloe curiously made her way over too.
"Who's Caleb?" Chloe finally asked.
"Our fourteen year old cousin." Jesse filled in as he watched Beca scroll through the pictures of the wheelchair bound brunette boy.
"Okay you guys seriously need to explain to me your family and who the hell gave birth to who." Chloe flailed her hands around making Beca and Jesse laugh.
"Right okay." Beca began. "My dad and Jesse's mom were brother and sister, Jesse's mom married his dad-"
"So that makes you a Swanson and that's how you've kept Mitchell." Chloe quickly processed, pointing to Jesse first then to Beca.
"My dad and Aunt Elena - Jesse's mom - have another brother, our Uncle Daniel who is Caleb's dad."
"Which means that Caleb is a Mitchell too." Chloe finally caught on. Beca and Jesse both nodded. "Aw he's so cute." Chloe cooed as she leaned over Beca to look at the pictures. Although there was a question on the tip of her tongue, why was Caleb in a wheelchair? He seemed perfectly healthy otherwise.
"He was in the crash with my mom." Jesse spoke as if he could read the redhead's mind. "She was picking him up because his parents were working late that night. The other car hit the driver's side, killing my mom on impact. Caleb survived but was left paralysed in his legs." Jesse explained with a lump in his throat.
"That's awful." Chloe sympathetically reached over and rubbed Jesse's shoulder.
"He's a strong, kid." Beca added. "Awesome singer too." She smiled as she got so far down his collection of pictures that she came to one when she was fifteen and Caleb was twelve and she was teaching him guitar. She read the caption aloud. "A lefty trying to teach a righty guitar is harder than we thought. Love her so much, never fails to make me laugh."
"Oh my god, remember this?" Jesse asked, tapping on a picture of him and Caleb on a basketball court only Caleb wasn't the only one in a wheelchair, Jesse was in one too. "He loved playing basketball before the accident so one time me and the rest of the team got in wheelchairs and played a game with him." Jesse informed Chloe who only smiled, her heart melting at how sweet Jesse and Beca were to their little cousin.
"Oh this one was at his bar mitzvah." Beca tapped on the next picture and it was of Caleb looking rather pleased with himself as he had Stacie and Aubrey looking beautifully dolled up at either side of him, giving him a kiss on the cheek. The photo was captioned 'My dates for the night.'
"Wait you guys are Jewish?" Chloe asked after it took her second to link which religion the term 'Bar Mitzvah' came from.
"Have I never mentioned it?" Beca asked, furrowing her brow and Chloe shook her head. "Oh well, you learn something new everyday." Beca chuckled.
"There's a girl version of a bar mitzvah isn't there?" Chloe asked.
"Yeah, a bat mitzvah." Beca informed as she continued to scroll through the pictures.
"Oh my god is that Stacie?" Chloe asked tapping on the picture. The picture was of Stacie in a dress with her hair done all fancy as she danced with her dad.
"Yup at her fifteenth or should I say Quinceañera." Jesse laughed, mustering the best Spanish accent he could.
"What are you all like with your special coming of age celebrations." Chloe teased as she looked at the caption which read 'Happy Quinceañera to one of the most prettiest girls I know, you're like a big sister to me Stacie.' "He's such a little charmer."
"He sure is."Jesse chuckled before lying back down on the creeper and wheeling himself back under the car.
Beca turned to Chloe as she slipped her phone in her pocket and smiled at the redhead.
"What're you smiling at?" Chloe couldn't help but smile either because whenever Beca smiled it looked like she was plotting something.
"You." Beca replied simply and Chloe hoisted herself up onto the hood of the car beside her smiling girlfriend.
"Why?" Chloe pushed further.
"Because I didn't know how lucky I was until you stumbled into that choir room." Beca placed her hand on Chloe's thigh and rested her head on her shoulder.
"Very sweet." Chloe began, clasping her hand over Beca's hand that was on her leg. "Buuut, I didn't stumble into that room, I glided." Chloe laughed and Beca shook her head, biting back a smile.
"Chloe you've turned my cousin into a love drunk pile of mush!" Jesse teased with a laugh.
"I forgot he was there." Beca murmured to herself. "Shut up Swanson." She added louder so Jesse could here.
Beca lifted her head up from Chloe's shoulder and the redhead turned to her. Beca bit her lip before moving her hand up to Chloe's face, softly stroking her cheek before leaning in to kiss her.
"Guys?" Jesse asked just as the girls' lips touched each other's. Beca internally cursed Jesse before pulling away.
"Yeah?" Beca asked finding herself playing with the hem of Chloe's top with her fingers.
"Did either of you notice that Aubrey was really touchy feely with me today?" He wondered and Beca and Chloe just looked at each other.
"Well she is your girlfriend." Chloe giggled.
"No I mean like way more than usual. She always had her arms around me, leaning into me, sitting on my lap also she seemed really tired." Jesse explained.
Beca rolled her eyes. "What's the date today?" She asked him with a sigh.
"The twenty-fourth."
"Exactly. She's got her period dude-" Beca said before Chloe carried on for her.
"-All she wants is hugs and kisses and for you to cuddle with her in bed-"
Beca also added her own input. "-she most likely also wants to dry hump the shit out of your leg."
Chloe choked on her laughter whilst Jesse exclaimed "Dude what the hell?!"
"Trust me, when a girl's on her period her hormone levels shoot through the roof meaning we basically want to fuck everything. Just seeing you is probably driving Bree crazy." Beca explained and Jesse wheeled himself out from beneath the car. "I see hearing that got you out of there." Beca teased with a chuckle.
Jesse ignored her and pulled himself from his feet, wiping his hands on the cloth that was hanging out of his pocket. "You know I've only made out with her a few times but I only keep my hands on her waist because one time I tried to put my hand under her shirt but she just moved it back down so I'm just waiting on her making the next move."
"Kiss her neck whilst doing it and she won't even protest." Chloe advised with a wink. Beca was internally laughing because only Aubrey would protest against her own boyfriend touching her boobs because she was a fucking asshole apparently.
"I think you have somewhere to be." Beca smirked with a raised brow. "Because a sexually frustrated Aubrey is not something I want to see."
"Calm down Dr Seuss, I'm not going over there just to take advantage of her crazy hormones." Jesse shook his head and wiped the sweat off his brow.
"You'd be doing her a favour rather than her take care of it herself. Now that you have that image in your head, get your ass over there and tell her you're there to comfort her on her period." Beca finished with a smirk.
"Stacie just leave me alone." Aubrey groaned into her pillow as Stacie stood by the side of the bed, waving her phone around.
"Just let me call him." Stacie whined.
"Oh my god!" Aubrey breathed out with frustration, flipping herself over onto her back. "I've had my period every month for five years Stacie, I'm pretty sure I can take care of myself."
"But there's nothing better than to just cuddle with your guy when your uterus is just like eating you alive from the inside out." Stacie flailed her arms around looking down at her best friend who was just blinking at her.
"I'm not that needy girlfriend Stace, he said he was working on his car so he's busy." Aubrey sighed, pushing her shirt up to expose her toned stomach, pressing her warm hand against her skin.
Stacie groaned, realising the stubborn blonde wasn't giving in anytime soon. "Do you want a hot water bottle filled up?" She asked, motioning towards Aubrey's exposed stomach, knowing the pain she's in.
Aubrey nodded and with that the brunette set off out of the room, grabbing the hot water bottle on the passing. Aubrey had no idea what the sudden interest in her relationship was all about but she shouldn't be surprised because it is Stacie she's talking about. She doesn't want to give the brunette the satisfaction but she really could do with a cuddle from her boyfriend right now. She had a headache and had the worst cramps ever. She really needed some pain relief, chocolate and Jesse's hoodie along with his hugs.
Stacie returned not long after and flung the hot water bottle at Aubrey making the blonde cry out because 1. It hit her in the stomach and 2. It was boiling hot. "Thanks Stacie." She tried to say in the least sarcastic way possible. Aubrey pushed her shirt back down and placed the hot water bottle on her lower stomach.
"You'll feel better if you get changed out of your uniform." Stacie said as she flopped down onto the bed next to Aubrey.
"You're right." Aubrey agreed before reluctantly prying herself off of the bed before trudging over to her drawers, untying her tie in the process. She threw a pair of black leggings and a white tank top onto her bed before closing the drawer. "How's things with your parents going?" Aubrey asked as she began unbuttoning her shirt, grabbing the brunette's attention away from her phone.
"They're definitely going through with it they've already started sorting out the legal stuff and Dad's already looking for a place to stay." Stacie explained with a sigh.
"Maybe it's for the best Stace, at least you'll still get to see both of them I mean look at Chloe and Beca, they never get to see their mom's." Aubrey pull the tank top over her head and began unbuttoning her black jeans.
"Yeah I guess." Stacie sighed, drawing her attention back to her phone.
Suddenly the bedroom door opened and Aubrey's head shot up. Surprisingly Jesse walked in but was stopped in his tracks because his eyes landed on his girlfriend before he could speak and let his eyes trail down to the fact she was only in her underwear and a tank top.
"How did you even get in here?" Stacie asked with a laugh.
"I-uh-I-" Jesse tried his best to pry his eyes away from his girlfriend. "You left the door unlocked." He finally said, shaking his head as he turned to Stacie who was smirking like an idiot. Aubrey quickly pulled her leggings on before climbing onto her bed.
"I'm gonna leave you kids alone while I go see our favourite lesbian couple." Stacie announced, leaving the room before Aubrey could protest.
"I could tell that you've got your period so I decided to come over and comfort you." Jesse smiled softly as he kicked off his shoes before climbing up the bed, sitting cross-legged next to her with the shopping bag beside him.
"You didn't have to Jess. By the way, did Stacie set you up to this?" Aubrey asked, narrowing her eyes.
"No, why?" He asked with a furrowed brow.
"Then how do you know that I've got my period?"
"Babe, I'm pretty sure you forget that we grew up together and it isn't really hard to tell when a girl's got her period." Jesse laughed. "Anyway I come bearing supplies." He pulled the bag into his lap and dug through it. "I brought my hoodie that you always seem to steal from me." He chuckled, handing it to her and she instantly put it on, enjoying the smell of her boyfriend that came from it. "I also brought you extra tampons, I didn't know whether you used pads or tampons so I asked Beca - by the way the dude at the checkout gave me a funny look when I bought these." He waved the box around before tossing them into Aubrey's lap making her giggle. "And last but certainly not least, basically just a random mixture of anything chocolate."
"What on earth would I do without you?" Aubrey asked shaking her head with a huge grin on her face. Jesse was honestly the dream boyfriend. She grabbed the box of tampons that were still sitting in her lap and opened it up. "I'm so glad you grew up with us when this all started because some boys are really uncomfortable on the topic." She chuckled, taking a tampon out before giving Jesse a kiss on the lips. "I just need to go change, I'll be back in a second."
Jesse watched as Aubrey left the room. He was glad too that he grew up with the girls through everything, one of those things being puberty, he was glad that the girls could rely on him to do anything for them when they've got their periods. Yeah it was tough but Jesse loved being that small amount of testosterone among all that estrogen. He fixed the pillow behind him and stretched out his legs, placing his hands on the back of his head and relaxed into Aubrey's bed as he waited on her.
It didn't take Aubrey long to return from the bathroom and when she saw Jesse's position, she couldn't help but take advantage by throwing herself onto him so she was literally lying on top of him.
"Better?" Jesse asked as he stroked her hair. She nodded, snuggling into his chest.
"You're so warm." Jesse laughed at his girlfriend and brought his arms around her.
"You're really light considering your height." Jesse smiled down at her. Aubrey maneuvered herself slightly but the sudden movement of her leg caught Jesse right in the crotch, sending a wave of pain over him. "Fuck, Aubrey." He groaned and she rolled off the top of him, covering her mouth as Jesse sat forward with both his hands on his crotch.
"I am so sorry." Aubrey tried to sound genuine but the amusement of the situation had taken over.
"It's not funny." Jesse tried to keep a straight face but Aubrey laughing beside him made that difficult. "Okay this-" He began, motioning to his crotch area once the pain began to subside. "-Is the no knee zone. That fucking hurt, I hope you enjoyed having a good laugh."
Aubrey composed herself from her laughter and snuggled up to Jesse's side when he finally lay back down. They lay there is silence after that, just enjoying each other's company.
Jesse began absentmindedly running the tips of his fingers up and down Aubrey's thigh. He felt her shiver which made him smile before he began rubbing more of the inside of her thigh with his whole hand instead of just his fingers. What Jesse didn't know was how much Aubrey was actually enjoying this, she was just really good at hiding it.
Aubrey's muscle tightened beneath Jesse's grip. He had never turned a girl on before but he has a rough idea on how to. He positioned himself onto his side and propped himself up on his elbow. He locked eyes with her as he ran his hand tentatively up and down her waist, her eyes were a shade darker than her normal glowing emerald colour and this surprised Jesse because he had never seen her like this. He was surprised she was actually letting him do this considering he was rather restricted on hand placement during a make out session. Jesse sat up before throwing one leg over the side of Aubrey so that he was straddling her thighs, careful not to hurt her in the process.
"You sore?" Jesse asked, pushing up her tank top before rubbing his hands gently over her lower abdomen.
"A little." She breathed out, shifting her legs slightly underneath him. Aubrey internally cheered once Jesse had finally leaned down and kissed her. There lips molded into one and expertly moved together, adding to the already growing warmth inside Aubrey.
Jesse tore his lips away from her's and swiftly moved to her neck, kissing his way down to her collarbone then back up to behind her ear. He felt Aubrey's hands moving underneath his shirt. Jesse took Chloe's advice and slid his hand underneath Aubrey's tank top slowly, testing the waters.
"Is this okay?" Jesse mumbled against her neck.
"Yeah." Aubrey didn't mean for it to come out so breathily but hearing her like that sparked something inside of Jesse that was sent straight between his legs. He let his hand travel up further until he reached her boobs, letting his fingers run over the fabric of her bra. Aubrey moaned softly as Jesse began massaging her breast with his hand and she instantly became embarrassed.
Jesse kissed along her jawline before pulling away, smiling softly at her embarrassment. She was so adorable and hot at the same time when she was turned on. As they continued to kiss each other (tongues gladly added to the mix) their bodies moved together in a way that was driving them both crazy. This was the most intimate they had been together, yes they had made out before but their sex drives were heavily involved this time.
Things were quickly getting more heated between the couple when Aubrey pushed Jesse off her and reversed their positions so that she was straddling him. Jesse very much enjoyed his girlfriend's sudden burst of confidence. She smirked down at him as she swept her hair to one side before leaning down to attach her lips to his neck.
"God, Bree." Jesse groaned as Aubrey rolled her hips down into him, pleasure surging through him as more friction was created between her and his erection. This side of Aubrey was turning him on so much that if he didn't stop soon he was going to explode. "Aubrey I need a minute to cool off." Jesse said breathlessly, gently pushing her off of him. "Or something really embarrassing is about to happen."
Aubrey rolled off of him with a giggle as she watched him readjust his jeans. "Jess I just want you to know that I want to take things slow, I mean this is okay but I don't think I'm ready for anything more." Aubrey said as she sat up on her knees, switching the atmosphere.
"Yeah sure, of course. I wouldn't want to pressure you into anything you're not ready to do." Jesse agreed softly. "I mean I'd say that there was a step forward for us but I'm happy with whatever pace you set."
Okay I'm sorry for the lack of bechloe but they've been too busy (along with Stacie) giving Jaubrey relationship advice! And trust me they'll be more bechloe in the next chapter because FUCKING PARTY TIME! and we all love them drunk.
Question - What are your thoughts on Caleb?(We'll get to hear more from him)
