Because I'm falling for you

Chapter 6 - What if he comes back?

Your hand on my thigh. Your hand on my thigh. Your hand on my thigh. Your hand on my thigh.

That was the only thing that crossed my mind. I didn't think of anything else. I was traveling completely in my thoughts and remembering the scene of a Chloe, on top of me, almost kissing me. Oh my god, what the hell just happened? We were walking side by side without exchanging a word, until she suddenly stopped and looked at me.

-You can use my cell phone now. - She starts looking for her cell phone in her bag and a few seconds later hands it to me.

-Thanks. - I answer a little embarrassed and dial Emily's number. After all, she was much more likely to see me than Amy.

Connection On

Emily: Hello? Who speaks?

Beca: Ems, it's me. Where are you?

Emily: Beca! I was looking for you just like crazy. Where were you? What happened?

Beca: I'll explain later. Just tell me where you are, I'll come to you.

Emily: We're at the cafeteria.

Beca: Okay, I'm going. Tell Amy to buy me a coffee.

Emily: Okay, bye.

Connection Off

-Hey, I said I would buy you a coffee. - She says crossing her arms and making a funny face making me laugh.

-Don't worry about it, redhead. My friends are waiting for me, will we talk later? - I cast a smile in his direction and turn to go towards the cafeteria. I notice that she is paralyzed and can't say anything to me, but that didn't worry me and I just followed the path.

POV CHLOE

Beca smiled at me. It was the most sincere smile I've ever seen. My god Chloe, what are you doing with those thoughts in your head? Focus!
When Beca turned on her back and went on her way, I confess I was sad that she was gone and even more sad when I remembered that I hadn't picked up her number. I was so paralyzed with her smile, that I didn't even remember to ask for the number, I could use the excuse that I still owed her a coffee and force her to go out with me. But after a few seconds I remembered that she had my shirt on, so I would see her again and that made me happier and more willing.
I took my materials and headed for the school, I should have found Aubrey about 10 minutes ago, she sure wants to kill me. Again.
Beca don't get out of my head. But why? Maybe because you almost kissed her, right, Chloe. My god, how stupid I was! What if I scared her? She must think I'm crazy. I need Aubrey's help to speak to Emily as soon as possible.

POV AUBREY

After long hours in class, it was finally over and I could go back to my dorm to rest. Today was the most tiring day in the world and it's all Chloe's fault, she didn't stop talking about Beca one second of the day. He asked me about 24 times if I had already spoken to Emily, I couldn't bear to hear her voice anymore. I love her, but when she puts something on her head, she doesn't want to take it off.

-Bree, are we going to the dorm now? I was thinking about going to eat something before. - Chloe says in the sweetest way possible, but I couldn't stand to go and listen to 2 more hours of Beca. I needed to speak to Emily as soon as possible.

-Actually, I was thinking of seeing Emily today. Since I entered college I have had little contact with her. I miss you, after all I haven't talked to her since she got here. - His eyes lit up hearing the phrase "I need to talk to Emily", and I confess I felt my heart warm with it. She seemed to really like Beca.

-Okay, Bree. No problem. Just don't delay, okay? I don't like being alone in the dorm. - She says putting her backpack on her shoulder and taking her cell phone in her hand. - I'll order an Uber, anything will call me. I love you. - She walks out and fiddles with her cell phone. I promptly grab mine and start typing a message.
