REVIEW RESPONCES:

APribs: wow thank you so much. That really means so much. I'm so glad that you liked the story. I have really high hopes for the sequel, so I hope that you will stick around for that too!

BecaMitchell: Thank you so much for reviewing. I can see where you are coming from, but to me, they still seamed like the same Jesse and Beca. People change A LOT in relationships. They sometimes end up picking up traits of the other, or just changing their personalities slightly. As for Jessie calling someone a 'Jerk', for one thing, he has known Peter and Bryan for almost his whole life, so we see a different side of him when he is at home with those friends. He is still the loving dork we all know and love, but he also has a different side around his friends.

grace083: Thank you, I hope you like this chapter too!

lion-hearted-gurl: Thank you SO much. I know what you mean about the laughing thing. I have the same thing. As for your music suggestions, I've been intending to do something with those kinds of songs in the sequel, so you will get to see that there.

MissLiv: Thank you for reviewing. I hope you like this chapter and the sequel

Aviva Aria: Very nice suggestion. I will probably end up doing an outtake or something like that. I am actually going to Disneyland this summer, so that will be fun to write.


Beca's POV

The rest of spring break was amazing. I really had such a good time staying with Jesse's family. I loved hearing all the stories that Julie told me about Jesse as a child. The best was that he went through a phase where he would only respond to the name Luke, as in Luke Skywalker. I found that story particularly funny, especially with how much Jesse dislikes our station manager, Luke. Michaela make me watch more Disney movies, and by the last one, I had a particularly strong desire to punch those happy princesses in the face. I didn't tell her that though. I just smiled and nodded as she babbled on about all things Disney.

Before I knew it, the ICCA finals had arrived. I tried to keep myself calm, knowing I had prepared the Bellas the best I could. I thought back to a year ago, and let a small smile play across my lips. Jesse and I had officially been together a year now, and I really couldn't be happier. I had ordered him a really special gift, and was really pissed that it hadn't been shipped in time. So he would have to settle for the print out I did this morning.

I was feeling pretty confident about our set until The Trebles went up. They were performing right before us like last year, and they were amazing. I tried not to let myself think about it as I led my Bellas out onto the stage. Before I knew it, we had finished, and the crowd was on their feet cheering. I looked around at my team mates, and their faces all said the same thing as I felt. We nailed it. I led the girls off the stage and made my way down the isle to where our seats were behind the Trebles. My mind flew back to exactly a year earlier as I saw Jesse turn and grin at me. I saw him open his mouth to say something, but the words didn't get a chance to leave his mouth before I pulled him into me, and kissed him.

"Happy one year anniversary nerd." I said as I pulled away. I watched as a grin spread across his face. "Come outside with me?" I asked. He nodded, and we both made our way down our rows and made our way out of the theater and into the lobby. I led him over to a bench and moved to sit down next to him, but he pulled me into his lap.

"So I have something for you." I said, reaching into my pocket and pulling out the paper. I pushed the folded paper into his hand. "So it's not really a big deal, but I saw it online, and thought you would like it." I said, as I handed him the paper. I watched him carefully as he unfolded it. I saw a smile light up his face as he read what was on the paper.

"1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die." He said, reading the print out from Amazon. "Beca, this is awesome!" He said, giving me a quick kiss. "You do realize this won't help you in your attempts at getting out of movications, right?" He said, looking up at me.

"Yeah, I know. You make sacrifices for love." I said, locking eyes with him. "Oh." I said, remembering something else. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a flash drive. "I also made this for you." I said, putting it in his hand. "It's songs from some of your favorite movie soundtracks." I saw his face light up like a kid on Christmas morning.

"You're really amazing." He said softly before pulling me into his chest. "I have something for you too." He said, and reached into his pocked and pulled out a small box. He placed it in my hand and motioned for me to open it. I did, and saw a charm sitting there. It was small, and in the shape of a ring. Confusion washed over me as I looked up at Jesse. "Now please just don't freak out on me. If you don't want it, I'll return it, but I saw it and I thought it would be nice. I want to spend the rest of my life with you if I can, but obviously, I'm not going to ask you to marry me now. We are way too young and you would probably murder me." I laughed as he went on. "But that doesn't change the fact that, one day, I would like to ask you to marry me." He stopped and locked eyes with me, and I think he was trying to figure out if I was going to run. I let a smile run across my face as I leaned in and placed a soft kiss on his lips.

"I don't want you to return it." I said softly, as I rested my forehead against his. "You are right though, if you had asked me to marry you now, I probably would have killed you." I said, as I wound my arms around his neck.

"So you want it?" He asked, taking the box from my hand and lifting the charm out of it. I smiled at him as I nodded. He lifted up my wrist where the charm bracelet that he had given me a few months ago always sat and clipped the new one on it. Reaching up, he brushed some hair out of my face before kissing me. I was about to deepen the kiss when a voice stopped us.

"Yo shawshank, get your flat but in here. They are announcing the winners." I heard Amy call. With a laugh, Jesse lifted me off his lap, as we both made our way back into the theater. All the final groups made their way onto the stage, and waited as the announcer walked out, with three envelopes held tightly in his hand.

"Wow, what a night!" He said, looking around at all the groups. "I know you must all be on edge and really want to find out the results, so I wont make you wait any longer." He said, as he began opening the first envelope in his hand. "In third place," he began, "The Clef Notes!" A group dressed all in yellow ran forward and took their prize. They moved back to their place and I watched as the announcer lifted up the next envelope. "In second place," he began, his eyes dropping to the card, "The Barden Treble Makers!" I grinned as I watched Jesse and the Trebles run forward and accept their trophy. I felt my stomach clench. This was it. Either we won, or we were back to where the Bellas had been two years ago. I let my eyes shift slightly to the left and I found Jesse looking at me. He sent me a small smile and mouthed the words 'I love you'. I mouthed it back, and turned my eyes back to the announcer. "And the winner of this year's ICCAs is," he said, pulling out his final card, "The Barden Bellas!" I felt myself go slightly numb as the girls pushed me forward and the huge massive trophy was pushed into my hand. I had to remind myself to keep breathing, as I handed the trophy to Amy and we all began to make our way off stage. As we made our way into the lobby I felt a pair of strong arms wrap themselves around my waist.

"Congratulations tiger." I heard Jesse whisper into my ear. I turned in his arms and linked my hands behind his neck.

"Thanks." I said. I was about to lean up to kiss him, but I felt myself be pulled out of his arms and all of a sudden, I had a smaller pair of arms wrapping themselves around my waist.

"It's nice to see you too Michaela." I said, giving the girl a hug.

"Oh my god! Beca, you guys were amazing." She said, practically bouncing up and down in front of me. I had to bite my lip in order to keep myself from laughing. My eyes shifted up slightly and I saw my dad making his way towards me, Sheila standing a bit back.

"I'll be right back guys." I said, and saw them both nod as I walked through the crowd toward my dad. "Hey dad." I said awkwardly, as I moved to stand in front of him. He didn't say anything, and just stared down at me for a minute, an unreadable look crossing his face. He moved his eyes down after a minute and shoved his hands into his pockets. He looked back up at me after a second a small smile on his face.

"You were amazing up there Beca." He said, looking at me. "I wasn't sure if you would be staying here last year, but you did." Watched him as a smile spread across his face. "I am really proud of you kid." He stepped forward and pulled me into a hug.

"Thanks dad." I said as I wrapped my arms around the man, who up until a year ago, I had resented for most of the bad things in my life. He pulled away after a minute and pressed a kiss to my forehead.

"I know you probably want to get back to your friends. Sheila wants to have you and Jesse over soon for dinner." I nodded, and waved over to Sheila as my dad turned and walked back to her. I walked back to where I had left Jesse and Michaela, who now stood with their parents. As soon as I got to them, Julie pulled me into a tight hug.

"You girls were amazing." She said as she pulled away. I caught Jesse's gaze as he grinned and moved to stand behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"I think they officially like you more than me."

"I thought we already knew that." I said, turning to grin up at him.

"We did." Michaela said. "He's just slow."

"So are you both ready for the end of the semester?" Julie asked.

"So ready. Maybe I can even get this guy to give me a break from our movications." I said as I turned to look up at Jesse.

"Aww, and here I was thinking that you were actually starting to like them." He said.

"There is a big difference between tolerating and liking."

"Like how we tolerate you bro, but like Beca?" Michaela asked, looking up at her brother?

"Ha-ha, very funny sis. Love you too." He said, rolling his eyes at his sister. I like to think I played a hand in his increase in eye rolling. Makes me quite proud.

"Do you have anything fun planned for the summer Beca?" Julie asked me.

"Nope, not really. I'll probably just figure out which of my parent's I'm less annoyed with and stay with them."

"Well you are always welcome to come stay with us." She said.

"Thanks. That would be amazing. But I doubt you would want me there for that long of a stretch." I said with a laugh.

"Of course we would. We loved having you last month. Gave us an added excuse to pick on Jesse." Ben said with a laugh, and ruffled his son's hair. Jesse shoved his father's hand away and tried to get him back, but his dad caught his arm and brought it into some sort of hold. He looked at me, and it almost looked like he was asking for help, which was just hilarious.

"Jess, your dad's a cop. What did you think would happen?" He just poked me in the side, making me squeal and subsequently, making me hit him in the chest.

"We usually take some sort of trip during the summer." Jesse said. "And they've already told me that you're welcome to come."

"Wow, um, thank you. But I couldn't ask you to do that."

"We want to do it Beca." Julie said.

"You're not going to be able to talk them out of this." Jesse whispered in my ear, and I am almost positive I saw both of his parents grin triumphantly. Ok, if I haven't already said it before, I'm going to say it now. I love Jesse's family.

"It'll be so much fun Beca." Michaela said, practically bouncing up and down again. Ok, what do they give this girl? Pure concentrated sugar? "I can tell you more stories about Jesse."

"Ok, we're going now." Jesse said, moving to pull me away from his family. Laughing, I shook my head as I waved to his parents and sister. Jesse and I made our way out to the bus where our friends were already waiting for us to make the long drive back to school. Jesse pulled me into his lap and wrapped his arms around me as I leaned my head back against his chest. As the bus moved through the darkness, I felt Jesse begin playing with my hair. Any other time, I probably would have slapped his hand away and insist that it was annoying, even through I kinda like it. Not that I'm going to tell him that. I was just so tired, and I just didn't want to move. I kinda can't believe that the Bella's just won the ICCAs for a second time. My life had changed so much in just a year, and for once, it wasn't freaking me out. I actually felt happy. Happier than I can ever remember feeling in my life.

"Jesse?" I said, looking up at him. He turned his head and looked down at me. "Thanks." His eyebrows knitted together in confusion.

"For what?"

"For being my awesome movie nerd." I said, closing my eyes and resting my head against his chest again. I felt a laugh rumble through his chest as he tightened his hold around my waist.

"Anytime babe."
