"To what do I owe the pleasure?" Beca asked spinning on her office chair as she picked up her phone
"I'm downstairs"
"I don't remember giving you the address- Oh wait, lemme guess. Chloe?"
"Yep."
Of course "I'm coming" Beca said sighing
Getting off the elevator, Beca spotted Jesse holding a taco bell bag in hand.
"I thought we were meeting up tonight after work" Beca said making her way to him
"I've got lunch" Jesse said grinning as he held the bag up. No sexy deep voice?
"Awesome, I'm starved." Noticing his stubble beard she asked "didn't get time to shave, Swanson?" shaking his head he said "No, I'm growing a beard"
"You look good" she said eyeing him. Jesse leaned over to kiss her but didn't when she pulled away.
"C'mon, let's go back to my office"
"Okay" Jesse agreed reaching to hold her hand.
With her free hand, Beca pushed the push-button to her floor.
"Wait up" A guy said, pacing their way.
Jesse reached over and prevented the elevator door from closing
"Thanks" He said as he got inside
"No problem man"
"Oh Hi Beca" He said smirking.
"Hi." She greeted curtly tightening her hold on Jesse's hand.
"You guys work together?" Jesse asked feeling Beca tense
"Yes" "Sorta" they said at the same time
"Bryan is interning here" Beca said looking at the elevator door
Bryan. That sounds familiar. Jesse glanced at Beca then back to Bryan.
"What about you? I've never seen you here before. Are we accepting interns Beca? Are you applying for an internship?" Bryan asked looking between the two of them.
"No. We. Are not accepting interns" Beca deadpanned. Bryan kept smirking clueless to her irritation.
Removing his hand from hers, Jesse wrapped an arm over Beca's shoulder
"I'm not applying for anything." He said pulling her closer to him when he felt her relax.
"Excuse me" Jesse added when the elevator door opened at the floor.
"That's STD Bryan?" Jesse said closing the door to her office behind them
"He doesn't have an STD" Beca said taking the bag from Jesse "What did you get us?"
" Burritos. Why is he acting all smug around you?" Jesse asked looking at her office
"He thinks I'm in love with him"
"Are you?" Jesse asked as he made his way to a bookcase
"Yeah, I'm head over heels for Bryan, Jesse" Beca said rolling her eyes
"Is that a Grammy" Jesse gasped
"Yeah, hey which one do like best, Coke or Pepsi?" Beca asked putting the food on her office
"Coke" Jesse replied staring at the Grammy, Beca nodded and got out of the room
"Producer of the year" Jesse read
The bookcase had a lot of awards and framed photos of her with pretty famous people in the music industry.
"I'm dating a famous person" Jesse said when she got back
"If I didn't come here and saw it for myself, you wouldn't have told me you won a freaking Grammy?"
"I figured you would have googled me by now. Isn't that what people do these days?" Beca shrugged handing him the can. "And I don't like to brag"
"You're going to this year's awards show, right?" he asked
"I don't know" she said when noticed his excitement. "Maybe"
"If you decide to go, please take me as your plus one"
"What makes you think we'd last until then?" she asked and regretted it the moment it slipped her mouth.
"We will" he said slightly frowning.
"How long is your lunch break?" Jesse asked changing the subject as he accepted the can
"Two hours. You?"
"I'm working from home today"
"Aka not working. Since you're here."
"I'll get It done later." He said shrugging and he made his way to her desk.
"Your office is really cool. Pretty remote" Jesse said spinning on her chair
"I know." Beca said watching him
"Two hours, huh?" He said smirking
"Don't" Beca said biting into her burrito
"I didn't say anything"
"You're thinking, don't" she mumbled while chewing "I've got to scare the hell out of the interns later. I need to look the part. And sex won't help." She added sitting on a couch
"Interns" Jesse said tapping on the desk.
Beca made a sound of agreement swallowing.
"Bryan is interning for you"
"You can say that. I mean he's interning here but he mainly gets me stuff. So basically he's working for me." she said leaning against the couch. "and learning from me" she used air quotation "word of advice, never sleep with someone from work."
"How did that happen?" He asked sinking into the chair
"I got drunk and he was there." Beca said before sipping from her can. Then it hit her. "Wait, are you jealous?" Beca asked smirking.
"No" Jesse said shrugging as he bit into his own burrito.
"Okay" Beca smirked crossing her legs.
"Thanks for lunch. I'll see you later I guess?" Beca said
"You're welcome. And I am getting kicked out right now?" Jesse asked
"Yeah. Bryan is waiting for me" Jesse narrowed his eyes
"You know I'm kidding, right?" Beca asked as she made her way to her desk.
"I'd like to think so" Jesse said watching her look inside a drawer.
Beca leaned against her desk facing him and threw a hard mint candy for him to catch then glanced at her watch. "I still have an hour" She said glancing up to him as she popped the candy into her mouth
"What do you have in mind?" Jesse asked mumbling as he sucked on the candy, sitting up.
"I could think of a couple of things" Beca said looking at him
Jesse scooted her way opening his arms for her.
Sitting on his lap, Beca said "I'm not having sex. I'm serious I need to look professional"
"Okay" He said staring at her lips.
As he leaned, Beca pulled away reaching for the phone. "Hello" she said annoyed "No, I'm on my lunch break." Listening to the other person on the phone, Beca rolled her eyes. Groaning, she said "Fine." Jesse held her waist to make sure she doesn't stand up "I need a raise" she said to the phone before hanging up
"Your break is over?" Jesse guessed, swallowing the candy
"Remember the asshole artist I talked to you about?" Jesse nodded
"Yeah well he's at the studio and asked for me for some reason and I need to go see what genius idea he has."
"Where's the studio? I'll walk you there."
"It's across the hall. But he can wait" Beca said leaning over.
Pressing her lips against his, Beca's arms went for his neck, running her hand through his hair.
Only pulling away when air became a major problem, Jesse tucked a loose lock of hair behind her ear. "I missed you" he admitted. "It has barely been four days Jesse."
"I need to go Jesse." She said not fighting his grip to get up.
"I really hate him" Jesse said as he let go of her
"Join the club." Standing up she fixed her clothes and asked "How do I look?"
"Great" He grinned getting up.
Walking her to the studio, Jesse scanned the place for Bryan. He didn't like him.
When he spot him standing not far and looking their way, Jesse stopped Beca and kissed her, he expected her to pull away but she didn't. She stroked his cheek instead smiling against his lips.
"You're Jealous," Beca sang pulling away.
"I'm not"
"If it makes you feel any better he was drunk too and it was probably the worst drunk sex I have ever had" she said slapping him playfully
"Honestly I think he all smug 'cause I'm older than him. Why do men make a deal out of sleeping with older women?"
"How much older?" Jesse asked wrapping an arm around her waist
"He's a college senior" Beca sighed.
"He was your toy boy" Jesse teased.
"Yeah, and now you are" Beca shrugged. Glancing behind, her she saw an intern tap on his watch motioning for her to join them "Okay, I need to go now. See ya" she added tiptoeing to peek his cheek.
"You'll pay for the PDA later. You have shaken my emotionless bitch reputation by your stunt" she whispered into his ear.
"Looking forward to it" he said saluting her. Beca smiled turning on her heels. Jesse smacked her butt grinning then watched her get inside the studio.
Jesse looked around for Bryan to make sure he saw their interaction. When they made eye contact Jesse gave him a curt nod. Checkmate, bitch. Where's that smug smirk now?
"What are we watching?" Beca asked closing the fridge with two beers in hand
"The last five years" He said putting the dvd in the player
"Genre?" She asked handing him a beer
"It's a musical" he paused bringing the beer to his mouth. "A romantic musical" he continued in a low voice.
"You can't be serious," Beca groaned, sinking into the couch.
Jesse held the popcorn bowl and sat next to her.
"Oh yes I am. It's time to show you musicals magic"
"Couldn't we watch a movie where a pyscho kills everyone and the hot chick miraculously survives in the end?"
"Not tonight" he said pressing play
Half way through Shiksa Goddess, Beca turned to Jesse and said "I swear to everything holy, if you ever sing through sex. I'll choke you with my bare hands."
"This song would totally work though." He said smiling "My mom does get weird when I date a Shiksa" Beca glared at him. Feeling her gaze he looked at her.
"Hey, hey Shiksa Goddess I've been waiting for someone like you" he sang along smirking
"Shut up" she said looking back to the screen.
"I'm kidding. Mom would love you." He said kissing her cheek
At the part where Cathy gets mad in See I'm Smiling, Beca chuckled.
"What's so funny?" Jesse asked without tearing his eyes from the TV screen.
"Getting worked up in song isn't funny to you? Oh my god she's out of breath," Beca laughed.
"Shush"
"He's totally cheating on her" Jesse tilted his head then looked back to the screen "Take a hint, Cathy" she added before sipping from the beer
When they revealed that Jamie's cheating "Called it" Beca said popping popcorn into her mouth
"How the fuck did they expect their relationship to work when they do everything in song?" Beca asked yawning as she leaned against Jesse's shoulder
"It's a musical Beca"
"Mmhmm"
"You're not falling asleep, are you?" Jesse asked. He got his answer when he glanced at her.
Sighing, he helped her rested her head on his lap and continued to watch the movie while he played with a lock of her hair absentmindedly.
As the credit started to roll Jesse pressed pause then got up and held Beca bridal style.
Walking to her room, Jesse glanced behind him when he heard the front door get unlocked. It was Stacie and some guy he didn't know. Jesse paced to Beca's room when saw what they were doing and were about to do.
Gently putting her on the bed Jesse ran to the door and closed it then sat on the edge of the bed.
"Jesse?" Beca said sleepily
"Go back to sleep, Becs" he said tilting his head.
"Why are you sitting there?" she asked
"I'm waiting for Stacie and her boyfriend to get to her room. I don't wanna walk in on your friend" he cleared his throat "You know"
"Yeah, that's not her boyfriend" Beca chuckled "Come here" she added, reaching for him.
Jesse joined Beca on the bed.
Holding her in his arms as she fell back to sleep, he heard the door to Stacie's room open and close.
Jesse glanced at Beca who was snuggling up to him, he pressed a kiss on her forehead and decided to spend the night over.
Jesse woke up the next when Beca elbowed him in her sleep. Siting up, he watched her shifted.
"What time is it?" Beca asked in a barely audible voice
Glancing at the clock on the nightstand, Jesse said "Five am"
"Great" she said sarcastically, rolling over
Running a hand over his face he had an idea. He got on top of her and removed his shirt.
"Fuck off" she mumbled, turning away from him.
"No" he said. Leaning in, he started sucking on a spot behind her ear.
"Fuck" Beca groaned when he moved to her neck.
"It's too early Jesse" she moaned. Jesse shrugged going for her lips.
Cupping his face, Beca rolled on top of him as they kissed "I'm up. Now what?" She asked pulling away
His smirk answered for him.
"Wanna wake Stacie and her friend up, huh?" Beca asked inches away from his lips, running a hand through his hair and scratching his stubble with her other hand.
Smiling, Jesse nodded. "I don't" She said climbing off of him "I want to sleep"
"Tease" Jesse said watching her
"I wasn't kidding yesterday. This is what you get for messing up my image at work." Hearing him groan Beca smiled.
"I'm messing with you" She said turning back to him
"You are going to pay. Just not now" she continued feeling his chest.
"See, you can smile in the morning" Jesse said grinning as pulled her to him. Kissing her, he rolled on top of her and took her tank top off.
"Jesse?" The man pouring coffee for himself said when he saw Jesse walk into the kitchen.
Jesse nodded "Do I know you?" he asked running a hand through his hair.
"No" he shook his head smiling. "She was screaming your name" he added nodding towards Beca when she entered the kitchen, only wearing Jesse's shirt.
"You woke me up" He said moving to the kitchen table.
Beca and Jesse exchanged knowing smiles.
"Sorry" Beca said sarcastically. Jesse laughed as he poured coffee for them.
"Good morning" Beca said when Stacie joined them, she did not look happy.
"I know morning sex is great, but seriously Mitchell? It's really early" Beca shrugged as she hopped on the counter accepting the coffee from Jesse.
"Consider this payback for the hard time you and miss bitch aka Chloe gave me last Sunday when I got home." Beca said between sips
"You had that coming. She won her first bet, she was over the moon"
"bet?" Jesse looked up, Beca glared at him.
Stacie chucked walking backward "C'mon Greg" she called pushing the door to her room
"And that my cue. Nice meeting you" Greg nodded towards Beca and Jesse as he got up and paced to the room
"Close the door" Beca hollered.
Sliding from the counter Beca went for the fridge grabbing milk "Jess could you get the cereal it's over there" she said pointing to the shelf behind him.
"What was the bet Beca?" he asked giving her the cereal box
"I'm not telling you. You're smart" she said accepting the box "figure it out yourself" She continued walking pass him.
Jesse followed her like a lost puppy and sat across the table from her.
"Stop watching me eat. It's a whole new level of creepiness" Beca said chewing
"Did they bet on how long would it take us to have sex?" he guessed
"mmhmm" Beca confirmed admiring her bowl of cereal.
"God, I love your friends" Jesse said, sipping his coffee
