Just trying something new. Discovered fanfic when I was like 12yrs old and now I'm almost 22 and just wanted to share.
Alternate universe in which Beca is a baker and develops a crush on Aubrey who is a regular at her bakery.
It's late January and Beca Mitchell's bakery, Sweets You Knead, has started accepting orders for their Valentine's Day special desserts. Beca and her staff take pride in being one of the most popular bakeries in the city of Barden. Beca and her best friend, Stacie, love bringing joy to the people they serve.
Recently, there's been a blonde and a redhead that have been coming in weekly since last fall that has gotten Beca's attention. Beca is usually behind the scenes seeing as she's one of the main staff to make the sweets so she hasn't really gotten a chance to talk to the blonde as she would like, but to be honest she's been kind of a chicken since Stacie told her the blonde who's named Aubrey is an actress. The topic came up when one of the newest staff members of the bakery, Emily, had congratulated Stacie on her engagement with Cynthia Rose who is another person a part of Sweets You Knead. Stacie was taking Aubrey and Chloe's orders when Chloe mentioned how she was a wedding planner and Aubrey had praised her work as she has recommended a lot of celebrities to her.
It's been about two months since that information has been revealed and Beca still hasn't gone to the table to introduce herself as the baker who makes their strawberry shortcake every week. However that changes today as Beca was informed by Emily who is in charge of the bakery's social media that Aubrey Posen the actress posted a picture of what she captioned "the best strawberry shortcake in the world" and since then the bakery has seen an increase of sales and orders.
"Bree don't turn but the cute baker you've had your eye on is making her way over here." Chloe tells her best friend Aubrey as she takes a sip of her latte.
Before Aubrey can answer Beca has already reached the table.
"Hello ladies. I wanted to introduce myself as the baker who's been making the strawberry shortcake you both enjoy every week. My name is Beca Mitchell." she says as she shakes both of their hands. She'd be lying if she said she didn't get nervous the second she touched the blonde's hand.
"Wait. You're the person behind this amazing shortcake?" Aubrey replies.
Beca smiles and Aubrey can't help but smile back.
"That is the reason I came. I wanted to thank you for the kind post you made. My social media assistant informed me of your post and since then we've noticed more traffic. I am honored that an actress such as yourself enjoys my bakery." Beca says to Aubrey. Chloe can't help but notice how her best friend isn't wiping away the smile on her face.
"We love your sweets. I'm Chloe and this is Aubrey."
"Well it was lovely meeting you ladies. I have to get back behind the counter. My friend Stacie will come and drop off a box of sweets before you leave. Just a small thank you." and with that Beca headed back to the kitchen area.
"Okay Bree, you have to ask her out. She's seems super friendly." Chloe tells Aubrey with a lot of excitement.
"Chlo, you know I'm not in a position to date right now especially considering what happened over the summer. Even if she does seem nice and I happen to think she is cute." Aubrey says with a sigh. Over the summer her fiance was caught cheating on her and it was a scandal for quite some time covered all over the media.
"Aubrey, I think it's time you let yourself have some fun. You have to get out there and take chances."
Just then Stacie approaches them with a box full of sweets as Beca had said to them.
"You two are our VIPs for the day. Our head baker Beca never makes these sweets for people before February. Also, your dessert in on the house today. We will see you soon." Stacie says as she leaves to another table.
Any reviews are welcomed :)
Also, don't really know if this will be a long or short fic. I'll see where my imagination takes me.
Thank you all,
