Enjoy the first chapter of this two shot and if you do, please review!
Thank you!
It was early Friday morning; sun streamed through the curtains of their tiny Brooklyn apartment. Beca's eyes fluttered open and immediately landed on the sleeping redhead on the pillow next to her. She smiled to herself before rolling over to grab her phone and check the time. It was 7:54, which meant that they had under an hour to get ready before they had to meet the others.
Beca turned back to the sleeping woman next to her and gently shook her shoulder, and kissing gently under her earlobe, "Baby, you have to wake up, we have to leave soon."
Chloe gently stirred, opening her electric blue eyes and smiling at the brunette looking back at her. "Good morning."
"Morning, beautiful." Beca smiled and got out of bed, stretching her back and yawning. "We should probably start getting ready now, we have to meet the other girls at the beach by 9:30."
"Whose great idea was it to meet at such an ungodly hour?" Chloe asked, rubbing her eyes.
"The General's." Beca retorted, making Chloe giggle.
"You really have to stop calling Aubrey that, she hates it."
"I find it funny how riled up she can get over something so trivial."
"I used to think so too until she stress-puked all over me."
"Good point." Beca agreed, wrinkling her nose."Now c'mon, we have to get ready, I was thinking a nice shower to wake us up?" Beca suggested, taking Chloe's hand and pulling her out of bed.
"Isn't Fat Amy home?"
"I heard her sneak out around 11 last night, and I doubt she's going to come back before we leave, but I'll call her just to make sure." Beca pulled out her phone to call the blonde.
Beca and Chloe have been keeping their relationship hidden ever since the first week they moved into the apartment together. Chloe confessed her feelings for Beca while they were both eating pizza on the unfurnished floor of their apartment, and they have been dating ever since. They both agreed to wait a little longer until they told any of the Bellas, and with Fat Amy living in the apartment with them, it's been difficult. But thankfully, Amy leaves to spend the night at random guy's apartments all the time.
After the third ring, Amy finally picked up the phone, "How many times do I have to tell you to stop calling me!"
"Amy, it's me." Beca replied, it wasn't the first time the blonde has mistaken her for someone else.
"Oh, sorry shortstack, I thought you were Allen."
"Who's Allen?"
"Uh, it doesn't matter…" Fat Amy trailed off.
"Anyways, where are you? Are you going to come home before Chloe and I drive to the beach or are you going to come separately?"
"I'm a little tied up right now, so it looks like I'll be meeting you guys there." Amy said quickly. "Ok, I have to go, Justin's starting to wake up for round two, I'll see you later."
"Gross." Beca hung up the phone. "Looks like she's going to meet us there after 'round two with Justin' as she put it."
Chloe gagged, "I didn't need to know that."
"At least now we know that we have the apartment to ourselves while we get ready."
"Yup, so let's start up that shower, shall we?" Chloe smirked and pulled her shirt over her head as she walked to the bathroom, making Beca's jaw drop.
Once Beca recovered from her trance, she ran into the bathroom after Chloe, who was already fully undressed and in the shower.
Beca took off her own clothes and got into the shower with her girlfriend. "Okay, we can't spend too much time in here because we only have 45 minutes until we have to leave."
"I know." Chloe said. "Could you pass me the shampoo?"
Beca and Chloe both finished cleaning up in a reasonable amount of time, only stopping to make out a few times. They both dried off with towels and blow dried their hair before getting dressed.
"What are you going to wear, Becs? Chloe asked, rummaging through their clothes rack that also served as a wall divider.
"Well, we're going to the beach, so I was thinking a bathing suit." Beca said sarcastically.
"Oh yeah, I forgot." Chloe walked over to the dresser of the other side of the room to take out her favorite baby blue bikini. Beca stood next to her and pulled out her own navy bikini and they both changed quickly before picking out two outfits to wear over their swimsuits.
Beca was about to pull an oversized band t-shirt over her head to match her light wash jean shorts, but paused when she heard a gasp from the girl next to her. She turned around and saw Chloe staring at her neck and shoulders.
"What's wrong?" She asked, attempting to look at herself to see what Chloe was gazing at. Chloe just started to laugh, making Beca even more confused.
"Technically it's my fault, so I'm sorry." Chloe said in between breaths, recovering from her laughing fit.
Beca ran over to the mirror on the other side of the room and gasped in shock at what she saw; small purple marks dotted from the column of her neck to around her collarbone.
"Chloe! What did you do?" She shrieked, making the redhead behind her resume her giggling.
"I'm sorry." She said in between laughs, doubled over and holding her stomach.
"Babe, you know I mark easily!"
"I know, I really didn't think I was that rough in the shower, I'm sorry." Chloe said, seriously this time.
"What am I going to do with these?" Beca exasperated, gesturing to the hickeys on her neck. "All of the girls are going to see them!"
"Makeup?" Chloe proposed. Beca shuffled into the bathroom, digging in the drawers to find her concealer to cover the bruises. Chloe followed her and watched as her girlfriend covered her neck in makeup.
"Shit." Beca muttered, putting away the makeup. "This isn't waterproof, and it's still noticeable."
"It's not that bad, it just looks like there's a sunburn on your neck." Chloe tried to lighten the mood.
"What am I going to do about the fact that I can't get my neck or shoulders wet when we are going to the beach!" Beca yelled, stressed out over the situation.
"I don't know…" Chloe thought to herself for a moment before thinking of a solution. "Wait!" She turned around, looking around the bathroom for her makeup bag to find anything to help. When her back was towards the brunette, Beca started to laugh.
"What?" Chloe faced Beca, who couldn't stop laughing long enough to tell Chloe what the matter was. All she did was gesture to the back of her neck, silently telling Chloe to look.
Chloe turned her back to the mirror in the bathroom and craned her neck to look at what Beca was laughing at. "Beca!"
"I guess we're even." Beca said once she caught her breath. The back of Chloe's neck and shoulders had the same dark marks as Beca's neck and collarbone did.
"Becs!" Chloe shouted. "What are we going to do?"
"I don't think there's anything we can do."
"But the girls are going to find out now!"
"Is that really such a bad thing?" Beca reasoned, they have been keeping their relationship a secret for five months now. "I mean, what's the point in keeping it a secret anymore? All they are going to do is crack more jokes about us than usual. I'm ready for them to find out but it's up to you."
"Don't you think they are going to be confused? I mean Chicago did kiss me during the tour…" Chloe trailed off.
"He only kissed you because he didn't know you and I were dating, and he apologized afterward when you explained it to him." Beca reasoned, trying to calm Chloe down.
"I guess, but what about everyone else? Our families, our jobs?" Chloe questioned.
"I don't talk to my family very often, so that's not a problem. Your family already loves me more than you, so if anything they'll be happy we're together." Beca joked, making Chloe chuckle. She was right; Chloe's family immediately accepted Beca into the family when she introduced the brunette as her best friend and she has been celebrating holidays with the Beale family ever since their college years. "And the other producers aren't going to care that I'm dating you, except Theo, he's been into me since the USO tour." Beca cringed. "Plus, once we go public, you can start walking red carpets with me!"
"I guess it would good to have everyone know about us." Chloe said more to herself than Beca. "Are you sure you're ready to tell everyone?"
"I'm kind of in love with you and I kind of want everyone to know, Chloe." Beca rested her forehead against Chloe's.
"Then we will tell everyone today at the beach, and I love you too." Chloe kissed her girlfriend sweetly.
"We should see if they can put together the pieces themselves first, and if they can't by the end of the day, we will tell them ourselves." Beca said, pulling away from her girlfriend to take off the concealer she just applied.
"That's an awesome idea, babe." Chloe kissed Beca's hair and walked back into their room. "Okay, we have to get changed fast and leave in the next five minutes or we are going to be late."
"You're right." Beca put on her shirt and slid her feet into a pair of flip flops. Chloe took her favorite white tank top off of it's hanger and put it over her head to match her black shorts. Once she had her sandals on, Chloe grabbed their beach bag packed with towels and sunscreen and walked out of the apartment hand-in-hand with Beca.
"Alright, let's do this." Beca got into the driver's seat of her Jeep Wrangler and Chloe climbed in with her.
"Can we stop at starbucks first?" Chloe asked sweetly.
"Baby, neither of us have had breakfast or caffeine yet and we are about to meet up with the Bellas, I think it goes without saying that we will be stopping there."
Beca turned out of the parking lot of their apartment building and drove to starbucks. They went through the drive-thru, with Beca ordering a plain iced coffee and a chocolate chip muffin for herself, and a vanilla bean frappuccino with a blueberry muffin for Chloe.
As they pulled out of starbucks, Beca started up her GPS to get directions to the beach. "Who came up with this idea again?"
"I think it was Emily; she just graduated and said she missed us, so we all agreed that the beach would be a good idea." Chloe reminded.
"Why did they have to pick one 45 minutes away?" Beca complained.
"So that it was a good driving distance from where everyone is living."
"But I thought some of them still live in Georgia, this is definitely not driving distance from Georgia."
"Yeah, I think Aubrey and Stacie are flying up because they both had time off… and Aubrey mentioned needing somewhere to stay for the time they are up here." Chloe hinted.
"Well, if they're staying with us, they have to sleep on the floor because our apartment can barely accommodate three people, let alone five." Beca told her.
"I know, I'll see if they still need to stay somewhere when we get there."
"What about Emily?" Beca asked.
"She found an apartment in Manhattan she's moving to this summer." Chloe informed.
"How in the world is she going to pay for a Manhattan apartment?"
"We'll have to ask her when we see her." Chloe said, turning on the radio and picking a station she liked. Once she found one, her and Beca jammed out to their tunes until they reached the beach.
"We're here." Beca announced, pulling into the sandy parking area.
"Oh, there's Amy's car, park next to her." Chloe pointed to Amy's red Nissan Rogue.
"How the hell did she get here before us?"
"Round two with Justin must not have lasted that long." Chloe joked, making Beca laugh as she parked the car and turned it off.
"Are you sure you're ready to tell them?" Beca asked her girlfriend.
"Totes." Chloe smiled.
"Alright, let's do this thing." Said Beca, kissing Chloe quickly, opening her door and walking to the trunk to retrieve their bags.
This was going to be an interesting day.
