"How did you know?" I asked, not sure I wanted the answer. I thought I had been careful. I thought she would just assume I was being super friendly. I mean yea, we've shared few of those glances you only ever hear other people talk about and worked together on my song, but I don't know.
"There were some hints," She jumped up on the counter. We're in her, Chloe, and Amy's kitchen and she does that a lot I can tell, it's the only open spot on the counter against the wall, "Also dude, you tried to kiss me once."
"Really?!" I almost screamed, I felt myself jump out of my skin as I said that, "Beca, I'm so sorry. When did this happen?"
"After you guys ICCA win. By the way, y'all party way harder than we do. But yea, you drank alot and well, hung onto me for the rest of the night."
"That must've made so uncomfortable, I'm so-"
"Em, It's okay," she interrupted, "If you had tried it in the past couple months, I probably would've kissed you back," she jumped down off the counter.
"Wait, what?" I blinked more times than I really needed to. She took another step toward me.
"Like if you were to kiss me now," she stepped again, " I'd kiss you too."
"Oh you mean like right now?" She kissed me. Just like that, our lips were pressed together, then the next second our lips and fingers interlocked. It only felt like it had been a few seconds, but our hands are in different places, so I can guess it had been much longer, but she let go and went back to her spot on the counter.
Right after all of that, Chloe came into the kitchen, Beca must've heard her coming in.
"Oh, Hey Emily. Did you start without me?" Chloe asked and coming straight into the kitchen without changing out of her uniform and sat her bag down next to her.
"No of course not," Beca said, "Em, just got here, we were thinking we go out," She got off the counter again, this time to get some shoes.
My eyes couldn't help but follow her. My blood is still rushing from our kiss.
"Yea. I haven't been here long at all," I said and I don't know why. Chloe looked at me funny, then disappeared into the hallway. As soon as left, I couldn't stop smiling and dancing. Beca laughed at me, came over and gave me a peck on the lips and left the kitchen as well.
"Eeeck," for whatever reason, I squealed and followed behind Beca.
Chloe reappeared with regular clothes and heads straight door.
"Let's go. I'm hungry and ready to talk acapella." Chloe said.
Beca and I smile at each other and follow Chloe out. This year is going to be interesting.
