    Summary

    He deserved to stay in this moment, to feel the crushing silence after disaster. The heaviness in the air. The kind of quiet that comes after sobbing into your pillow, when your body is too tired to cry, when each breath hurts. When the song ends but the vinyl keeps spinning; reeling, searching, for nothing.

    Something.

    They could've been something.

    It was better this way, he was sure of that.

    He didn’t need this… neediness.

    This desperation to melt into someone’s arms.

    Even if it meant Belly never forgiving him.

     

    OR,

    The first time Belly told Conrad she loved him, he didn’t believe her.

    They struggle to find their way back.

    Summary

    So this little thing going on between Jesse and Beca? Yeah, it’s the world’s worst-kept secret, one that has been too entertaining but too tiring to watch from the sidelines. So the Bellas decide to take matters in their own hands, and Beca ends up having to remind herself that she doesn’t (shouldn’t) care, at all. (Or at least, that’s what she tells herself.)

    Summary

    It isn’t moving in until she has her toothbrush in Jesse’s new apartment…or so Beca tries to convince herself. (Or, how Beca realizes she is kind of sneakily moving in, to her complete and utter mortification.)

    Summary

    Beca’s never really been anyone’s girlfriend before. It’s kind of freaking her out a little. Jesse/Beca, first half of sophomore year. Written as accompaniment to “i’m singing this song for you.”
