Trophy//A Becky X Jeff Fanfiction

Chapter 5

Jeff POV

I moved to my bed when she fell asleep again. I didn't understand what exactly was happening but after over hearing her conversation I knew Matt and Leah roomed us together. It didn't seem like she liked me so, why? I pushed every thought away and laid down. I could at least to try to sleep.

2:43a

I don't know what made me wake up but I had a weird feeling. I rubbed my eyes to clear my vision. It was completely dark except for a line of light from the window. It was currently storming so the flash came in every so often. Besides that nothing stood out.
A loud crackle of thunder sounded...followed by sniffling.
I sat up and looked over at Rebecca's bed. She was shaking and I could slightly hear the sniffling. Was she crying? I slowly crept out of bed and walked around her bed.
"Rebecca?" I whispered. She went quiet. I knelt beside her bed to see if she was sleep or not. Kinda surprised to see her looking back at me. "Um, are you okay?"
"Y-yeah. I'm fine." Another crash of thunder echoed. She jumped covering her face. I sat down on the edge of her bed and rubbed her back trying to comfort her. "C-can you sleep here? I'm....I'm really scared." She made room before I even answered. Shock filled me. I honestly didn't know if this was done weird dream or if it was actually happening. I hesitantly slipped in bed beside her. What I wasn't prepared for was her being so close. She pressed her body against mine burying her face in my chest. Another round of thunder occurred. She wrapped my arm around her. After a few minutes she was sound asleep. And after over thinking for a while I was sleep, too.

Becky's POV

"Aww. They need to stop fighting this. They are cute together." I forced my eyes open and saw Leah, Fergal, and Matt all surrounding my bed...with their phones? Why?
"What....what are you guys doing here?" I sat up...only to find I couldn't. What? I looked and saw an arm around me. I slowly looked back and saw...oh no. I'm quite sure my face was as red as a tomato. I slowly tried lifting his arm but he only held me tighter.
"Aww." They all say in unison. Jeff shifted beside me.
"Morning, Jeffy." Leah chirped. He was up so quick, only to hit the floor. He groaned.
"Any reason you're on the floor?" Matt asked clearly amused. He shot daggers at him.
"Are you two together?" My eyes widen as Fergal's voice filled the room.
"No!" You both yelled simultaneously. He looked genuinely scared at our outburst.
"Come on guys. Let's go eat." Leah dragged Matt and Fergal out of the room leaving just us two. The tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. It was extremely awkward. It felt like everything came out but then again not.
"I'm sorry. They're just..."
"I get it. Been around long enough to know them." He finally got off the floor. I pulled my knees to my chest.
"Thank you, too. For last night. I wouldn't have asked if I knew this would happen."
"Sure. Well....I'm gonna get dressed." You nodded as he disappeared into the bathroom. I dialed Leah's number and waited for her to answer. No answer. Matt. No answer. Fergal. No answer. I decided to send a group text to them:

"Rebecca?" It was Jeff. You looked up at him. "I... Matt...he said... Can I ask you something? Being completely honest." I was confused but nodded. "How long?"
"What? How long what?" He moved so he was sitting directly in front of me. He was acting kinda strange.
"Don't leave when I tell you okay."
"Just tell me."
"I've liked you since 6th grade." My mouth fell open. "Ever since you walked into science class with your brown hair covering your face. Every since you first said hi with your cute Irish accent. Just ever since forever." I stared at him speechless. 'was this some kind of joke?' "Rebecca...?"
"I don't know what to say." His face fell. "I just don't have time for jokes."
"Who's joking?"
"I know Leah or Matt put you up to this. They probably told you I liked you and you probably feel bad because it's dumb. My heart is actually on the line. I don't need you to sit here and play with it." ....
Silence filled the room for a while until I spoke again.
"I'm gonna book another room." I stood and began to packed my stuff.
"Rebecca, I-"
"Save it." I grabbed my bag and left.
