Love is over-rated - a Jeca fanfiction

The Lake

Jesse's pov
"Look, Jess I'm fine. Honestly" Beca says as Benji looks at her side.
"She's right Jesse. She'll be fine, it'll just hurt for awhile" Benji smiles sadly as he pulls her shirt back down. Beca crosses her arms. "You should stay Becs-" she gets up and shakes her head declining the offer. "Beca please, I'm sorry!" I yell after her as she closes the door and leaves. Something tells me I'm not going to be seeing her for a very long time.

I walk into my room and slump on the bed. This is all my fault, I should've been here. I shouldn't have left Beca alone. I sit up and notice her stuff that she'd left behind. I grabbed the bags and raced to the shops.

Beca's pov
I step out of the elevator and go to open the door to my apartment when I stop. "Chloe! It's Beca, you and your boyfriend better be fucking dressed!" I yell and just to be safe I close my eyes before walking in. I hear Chloe open the door to her room and I open one eye. I see Chloe with a towel around her and I roll my eyes. "I thought you were staying at Jesse's... Beca, what's wrong?" Chloe looks at me seriously, I turn and walk to the kitchen. "I don't want to talk about it" I mumble back at her as I reach up for the lucky charms that are in the top cupboard. "Holy shit, Beca! What the hell happened?" I pull my shirt down quickly as I realise that I'm gonna have to tell her what happened.

"Beca, you know it wasn't his fault." Chloe whispers I nod, "go back to doing what you were doing with you boy" I say smiling a bit. "You sure?" Chloe says standing up and I nod as she runs back to her room locking the door behind her. I go to my room and pull my laptop out and start working on some mixes when I hear someone knock on the door. I walk slowly to the door, blocking out the sounds coming from Chloe's room. I look cautiously through the peep hole and then open the door. "What are you doing here?" I ask quietly. Jesse smiles at me, "come on. I have a surprise." I sigh, "Jess, I-" he raises his eyebrows as a scream that comes from the other room. I yell out to Chloe that I'm leaving and grab Jesse's arm.

"Okay, what's this?" I ask looking at the dress Jesse is holding out for me. "A dress." He grins "come on just put it on!" He whinges pouting. I roll my eyes and walk into the toilets at the park we stopped at. "How did you know my size?" I wonder aloud, "Chloe" Jesse yells back and I laugh a bit. So that's what she was doing on her phone whilst I was telling her what happened, I thought it was her boyfriend. I walk out of the toilets and twirl around like a little girl. I shrug a little as Jesse smiles before dragging me along by the hand.

"Close your eyes." Jesse whispers as he slows down to a walk. I do as he says clinging tightly to his arm. "Open" he says. I open my eyes to see a candle lit picnic beside the park lake. The blanket is red tartan with little tiny tea lights all around it and a path going to the lake where there are fireflies dancing around Lilly pads. I smile a little because even though I am a badass, heartless, bitch of a music producer this is the sweetest thing ever. Jesse leads me over to the blanket where he pulls me into his lap. For a long time we just sit there me tuck against him. I feel safe in his arms and I know nothing bad can happen.

I look up at Jesse as he clears his throat,"Becs," he whispers as he stands up with me. He holds both of my hands, "Becs, I was just wondering if-if you would do me the honor of being my girlfriend. But only if you're ready." He adds quickly. I stand there for a long while just processing what's happening. "Jess I'm sorry-" I start but stop because something doesn't feel right. I don't want to say no, but I'm not ready to be thrown aside by another guy. I look at the floor before deciding on what the right thing is to say. I look back at Jesse at his beautiful eyes, "Jess-"
