AN: I owe you an apology peeps, I was planning on uploading part 2 in a matter of hours but then life happened and I couldn't. Yeah, I have a life, weird I know right?
"Better text Emily and Benji" Jesse glanced at Beca before walking out of the elevator
"Already on it" Beca said hitting send.
"Ha, Em is parking" Beca said checking her phone as she was about to unlock the door.
"She should run into Benji, cause he's here too." Jesse said checking his phone
"Didn't you text them that we're fine?"
"I did" Beca nodded unlocking the door.
"Then-"
"Doesn't matter, they're here now" Beca shrugged walking inside the apartment.
"Hear that?" Beca asked turning to Jesse
"They're banging" Beca said walking to Stacie's room. "And the door is fucking unlocked, as always" Beca rested her crutches on the wall murmuring "Jesus Christ" then closed the door without looking inside the room.
Beca dragged her leg and walked to the stereo turning it on.
"Explains why she never got back to you" Jesse said watching Beca walk to the kitchen and sit on a stool.
Beca looked up recognizing the intro. You have to be fucking kidding me.
Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
Beca looked up meeting Jesse's gaze. Not now, shut the fuck up Beyoncé
But, I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
Jesse watched Beca dragged her leg to the stereo.
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out!
"Yeah, explains it!" she said pulling her phone from her pocket.
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and—
Beca hit next, glad the next song was Snow by Red Hot Chili Peppers.
"I'm gonna get pizza, dinner is on me. Since we dragged Emily and Benji without a good reason, I figured pizza would be a good apology. You don't have to stay" She looked up to meet his gaze. Jesse nodded.
"That's probably them" Jesse pointed at the door when they heard knocking.
"Hey guys" Jesse said letting Benji and Emily get in.
"Sorry for dragging you both." Beca said grabbing her crutches and walking back to the kitchen.
"It's okay" Emily said walking to Beca.
"How is that leg doing?" Benji asked walking behind Emily
"Alright—You're staying for dinner" Beca said pointing at Benji and Emily.
"Consider it a sorry for making you come down all the way here. I hope you weren't doing something important, Benji"
"Nope" Benji shook his head. "Even if I were, I got to meet a heavenly creature-" he glanced at Emily
"Don't get weird" Jesse nudged him talking in a low voice
"Why is the music so loud?" Emily asked confused watching Jesse get up to get the door
"Stacie and Tom are fornicating, and Tom is pretty loud. I feel your pain Benji and I'm forever sorry"
"Oh Jesse got me earplugs few weeks after you started dating" Benji said taking a seat.
"Jesse forgot to mention that to me" Beca said glancing at Jesse who was holding back a laugh as he set the Pizza boxes on the table.
"I just loved how creative you get to sneak off without saying hi to Benji. It's funny" he said making Emily chuckle.
"No it's not, you know how much thought I put into that?"
"It's kinda funny" Jesse laughed. "Like that time you had to crawl your way to the front door but then forgot your phone and had to come back"
"Shut up" Beca said before biting into a slice of Pizza
"Is that a new tattoo?" Emily asked looking at the music notes inked on Beca's arm.
"Sorta. I woke up with it in my arm on New Year day. I usually laser off tattoos that I don't plan on having, but this one is nice so I kept it"
"First time noticing it" Emily said taking Beca's arm in her hand to have a better look at the tattoo.
"It's really nice" Emily let go of Beca's arm
"Thanks" Beca mumbled through mouth full of pizza.
"I've been thinking of getting one" Emily shared
"Cool, what do you have in mind?" Beca asked
"I don't know yet, it's gonna be music related for sure"
"I advise you not to tattoo a boyfriend's name" Benji said joining in the conversation.
"He makes a very good point, never do that" Beca nodded "Got any tattoos Benji?" Beca asked
"No" he shook his head.
"What about you Jesse?" Emily asked
"I wanna be buried in a Jew cemetery, so no"
"Well, they could like take off that piece of skin and bury you" Emily shrugged
"I guess that's an option" Jesse said turning thoughtful
"Could you please not talk about cutting flesh, we're having dinner for Christ sake. And Jesse won't get a tattoo 'cause he's afraid of needles" Beca said looking between Jesse and Emily.
"No I'm not"
"Please, you couldn't look at me when I was getting these stitched" Beca snorted pointing at her temple.
"Maybe it was 'cause I didn't want to see you in pain"
"You wanted to punch the doctor when I was in pain, not throw up" she smiled tightly waiting for him to admit it.
"Okay, fine I don't like needles" he threw his hands up in defeat
"Glad you have the guts to admit shit" Beca said before sipping from her beer.
"Yeah, admitting how you feel is good for your soul, you should try it sometimes" he deadpanned.
I deserved that.
"Great, you got pizza" Stacie said walking inside the kitchen.
"Tom, could you turn the music down?" Beca yelled from her place
"Okay" Tom Answered from Stacie's room.
"So for how long were you stuck there?"
"Like 2 hours" Beca answered, watching Stacie lean over and grab a slice of Pizza.
"Hey Tom" Beca said looking at Tom when he joined them.
"Hi" he said back high fiving Jesse. "How are you doing, guy I don't know?" he asked fist bumping with Benji
"I'm Benji" Benji introduced himself as he tried to get up but Jesse held him down. "and I'm doing well, you?" he added awkwardly fist bumping with Tom.
"Great" he sang meeting Emily's gaze "Sup?"
"Nothing much, enjoying the free time after the tour. You?" Emily shrugged.
"Writing songs and waiting for Ms. Mitchell to get back to work to start on our album" he said grabbing a slice of pizza himself.
"I'll be back by Monday"
"She's a perfectionist, you've been warned" Emily informed Tom.
"More chances to win a Grammy" He shrugged
"Jesse stuck around for dinner" Stacie said walking in Beca's room.
"Yeah," Beca said patting on the bed for Stacie to join her.
"I don't know what you did Freud but he doesn't hate me anymore so thanks for that" Beca said watching Stacie hop on the bed.
"He doesn't hate you Beca, he was really pissed at you. I can't tell you what we talked about, because of the doctor-patient confidentiality-"
"Wait, Jesse is your patient?"
"Well not technically, but he did come to my office," Stacie shrugged.
"Okay, sorry for interrupting" Beca gestured with her hand for Stacie to keep going
"So yeah, Jesse was pretty angry with you but isn't anymore. Now tell me did you apologize?"
"Yes, and I also told him that I don't expect him to forgive me or anything. I'm planning on proving to him that he should forgive, not sure how though"
"Well, that's better than nothing"
"Yeah, I promise you Stace if it weren't for the fact that we had nowhere to go I wouldn't have worked up the courage to apologize."
"That I know,"
"Did you even contact maintenance?" Beca asked narrowing her eyes.
"Yes, but not right away" Stacie shrugged.
"I knew it"
"What did it? What made you finally come around?"
"A mix tape he made for me for valentine, from what I understood, his feelings for me grew a while ago. And the fact that I miss him like crazy."
"Wow. Who would have thought you of all people would get all soft"
"Shut up" Beca rolled her eyes.
"18 year old you would make fun of 30 year old you"
"Wanna tell me what's going on with Tom?" Beca asked changing the subject
"He's fun and I like having around" Stacie shrugged getting off the bed
"That's what I told myself when I first started going out with Jesse. Now I love the guy" Beca laughed watching Stacie close the door behind her.
"I said it!" Beca said in realization. "I fucking said it"
'Listen up nerds, we're meeting up after work tomorrow at my place. You're helping me win Jesse back. I expect genius ideas.' Beca sent a mass text to Chloe, Emily, Amy, Stacie, and Aubrey then put her phone one the nightstand.
Few minutes later Amy answered her 'Ay, ay, captain.'
"I wanna hear you say it"
"Hello to you too" Beca rolled her eyes letting Chloe in.
"You have no idea how happy I am for you" Chloe said pulling Beca into a hug
"Let me at least put the crutches aside then you can crush me in a hug and you can be up for a nice pity party so-"
"Sorry" Chloe pulled away watching Beca rested the crutches on the wall then pulled her in a hug.
"c'mon" Beca said nodding to the living room after pulling away.
"The girls are here" Beca added reaching for the crutches.
"Cool" Chloe said waiting for Beca.
"Could you please say it, I wanna hear you say it" Chloe asked
"Dude, no" Beca shook her head
"So, what have you got for me nerds. I'm all ears" Beca said joining Amy and Aubrey on the couch.
"I was thinking maybe you could somehow take him to somewhere deserted then you would confess your love for him, naked" Amy suggested first
"What the actual fuck, that's kidnap, and I'm gonna pretended I didn't hear the naked part"
"It's not kidnapping if it's romantic" Chloe shrugged.
"You being naked will make him think with his dick"
"Amy, No" Beca said in horror.
"What about serenading him with some 80s classic?" Aubrey suggested
"Imagine me, with a broken leg singing Eternal flame, I think I've humiliated myself enough when I sang to Nsync and Taylor swift in public. So, no to the serenading" Beca shook her head.
"He loves movies, let's think of something movie related" Emily said looking between her friends.
"How about you dressed up like-" Amy started to say.
"Freddy Krueger and kill you in your sleep" Beca cut her off
"let me finish first"
"No" Beca shook her head
"How did you guys meet?" Emily asked
"Well, technically that would be at a night club but I don't actually remember it" Beca shrugged "Why?"
"I thought maybe you recreate that moment"
"That's interesting" Beca nodded
"Yeah, and instead of asking him to drive you home you ask him if he would take you back" Stacie said
"Oh we could totally make that happen," Chloe jumped in excited
"Since your birthday is coming up soon" Chloe started "And we're heading to Cancun"
"That is still in negotiation" Beca said
"No, we decided on that, majority vote" Stacie said resting her elbows on the couch.
"It's my fucking birthday, why can't we just go to San Diego" Beca groaned
"Beca stop whining, or else I'll make sure you spend your birthday in the Bellas' house's basement" Stacie said smacking Beca's head.
"Not the basement"
"you gonna let me finish or not?" Chloe asked watching Beca and Stacie.
"Sorry, go on." Beca motioned with her hand for Chloe to keep going.
"So since we're going to Cancun, why don't we asked Jesse to tag along with us, you could give him puppy dog eyes all long the trip and when we get there we'll go to a night club and you could do what Em suggested"
"You need to stop watching so many movies, Chlo. How the fuck are you planning on making Jesse come with us on a 50 hour long trip. Kidnap him for example?"
"We could go with the good old 'car broke down and we need a ride'"
"Chloe that would work if it were a three hours drive tops not getting out of the country for fucks sake. I appreciate this plan and it could work if we would just go to San Diego"
"No" they all said in unison.
"We could like go to Comic-con or something"
"Comic-con is in July" Emily told her.
"And seriously, Comic-con? You don't even like comic books" Chloe said
"I watched the avengers"
"Yeah, and that makes you an expert on comic books"
"You have never seen a movie with Jesse, Em. You don't know what you're talking about"
"Name the avengers, not just the ones in the movie" Stacie challenged Beca.
"I could name the founders"
"Go ahead"
"Ironman, Wasp, Pym, Hulk and Thor"
"Let me look that up" Emily said
"Are you guys serious" Aubrey said watching them
"They're underestimating Jesse's never ending Trivia" Beca shrugged.
"And according to Wikipedia, you're right" Emily said looking up.
"Hey, how about we go to Georgia instead of Cancun," Aubrey jumped in
"Before you say anything else, please tell me your suggestion doesn't involve me staying at your lounge in any way"
"Actually that is a good idea"
"Shut up Amy"
"No" Aubrey shook her head.
"Good, 'cause there's no WiFi there"
"We have WiFi now"
"Really, that's really cool" Beca said impressed
"So Georgia?" Chloe wondered
"No I just thought it would better if we went back to Barden, same plan"
"I'm cool with this if we take a plane there" Beca said
"And what's the fun in that" Chloe said
"Comfort Chloe, think about that for a second"
"Hey we could use Luke's jet" Emily suggested
"You think he would willingly give it to me?" Beca asked
"The guy loves you like family I'm sure he would" Emily nodded
"Yeah, he left his son with you, he trusted you with his son" Amy said in mock horror.
"I'll see if I could make that happen, otherwise I'll just rent one" Beca shrugged
"I'll rent a rocket if it means I'm not getting dragged across the country in a car with you" Beca admitted
"That's nice. How are you planning on making Jesse join us?" Stacie asked taking on a seat on the couch's arm.
"We could put something in his drink and then he wakes up in Georgia and we just tell him that he partied hard and it was his idea"
"Amy, that's kidnap." Beca looked at her.
"We could invite him and his two friends, the shy one and the douchebag," Aubrey suggested.
"Benji is too nice to say no and Bumper won't say no to a trip on a private jet, if I tell him there's free booze" Beca shrugged.
"I could ask Bumper to convince Jesse," Amy said sinking into the couch. Beca gave her a weird look "Without getting any drugs involved" Amy added
"I didn't know you were close with Bumper" Beca said watching her friend.
"None of us knew that" Chloe said
"We hangout sometimes"
"Define hangout" Aubrey narrowed her eyes at Amy
"Define sometimes" Beca added
"Watch movies together, havesexandstuff"
"Okay, I'll invite Benji then" Beca said shaking off the mental image of Amy and Bumper together.
"I could do that" Emily shrugged
"Why would you do that? You met him yesterday" Beca asked confused
"He asked me out and I said yes"
"Way to go Benji" Beca chuckled.
"So are we going to tell Benji and Bumper about this?" Stacie asked
"I don't know" Beca shrugged
"Okay let's take a vote on it, anyone who wants to tell them sing G sharp, anyone who doesn't sing an E flat. One, two-"
"We don't tell them" Chloe said after they sang the notes.
"God, I missed it when we do this" Emily said
"Isn't it just perfect that your birthday is on a Saturday" Amy remarked
"I'm calling it, fate"
"Chloe don't start on that fate bullshit"
"You met on a Saturday, what is it if not fate"
Beca shook her head
"So it's settled then, we're going back to Barden" Stacie said walking to the kitchen.
"Can we drop by the Bellas' house?" Emily asked
"Oh we are" Stacie said coming back with a beer in her hand.
"Too bad the current Bellas won't be there though" Stacie added realizing by the time they get to Barden summer break would have probably started
"That is great, what are you talking about?" Beca asked confused
"It would have been fun to watch you struggle to be nice to them, meh, we'll go back during school year"
"Are we even allowed to be there?" Aubrey wondered
"Of course, not" Amy grinned
"I am not going to spend my birthday in a jail cell" Beca said looking between her friends
"Relax, you'll hopefully spend it in a hotel room with your man candy" Amy said patting Beca's shoulder
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves, nerds."
"Could you please say it once?" Chloe begged
"No" Beca shook her head.
