Beca and Chloe have been dating ever since college. the two have always been inseparable and after five years of dating they decide to take the next step. usually that step would be getting married for most couples, but Beca Mitchell was not the marrying type. so they came to a compromise, they wanted to have a baby.
although Chloe would have been more than happy to carry the baby, the two decided it would be best for Beca to carry the child. since Chloe was a few years older than Beca, Chloe had less eggs and less of a chance of being able to get pregnant, so Beca was the better option.
after that whole debacle, they came to face yet another problem. who would be the father.
they had two options. either get an anonymous sperm donor or ask someone who they knew and trusted. after the two finished weighing their options after two long weeks, they came to a decision.
they wanted someone that they knew and trusted to father their child, but who?
of course Beca was leaning towards her best friend, Jesse, but Chloe had her doubts about him. to say that Chloe didn't like Jesse was an understatement, to say the least. not only was he Beca's best friend but he is also an 'ex-lover' of her's from back in high school. Beca and Jesse went way back, they grew up together, and Chloe was a little bit jealous, actually no, a lot a bit jealous.
but if they didn't pick Jesse who else could they pick, Bumper? no, no, no, no, no, not on Beca's watch. no way would she carry the spawn of the devil. not a chance.
"so Jesse it is" Chloe said reluctantly.
"yes!" Beca said victoriously "i'm going to call him right now, he's going to be so excited, he's always wanted to be a dad!".
"Beca, you'll have to remember he is not going to be the one parenting the child with you, i am" Chloe said sternly a tinge upset.
"yes, i know" Beca replied a bit sadly, which of course Chloe picked up on.
"Beca, don't worry about the whole arrangement it'll work out, and in the end, our main goal is to start a family, just like we've always wanted" Chloe said comfortingly to Beca.
"okay, you're right" Beca said getting her excitement back "let's do this!". Beca picked up her phone and scrolled through her contacts, her finger hesitating to push on Jesse's name. she urged her finger to push the name, and it did. after just two rings she heard his voice ring through from the other end of the call.
"Becaw! whats up weirdo?" Jesse said through the phone.
"not much" Beca said still contemplating whether or not she should go through with it.
"okay?" Jesse said with suspicion. "then why did you call me".
"well... i need a favor"
"what kind of favor?" Jesse said incredulously. "i mean, you know i'd do anything for you, but is this something that is going to get me killed or arrested, because if so i need to have my will drawn up. don't worry you'll get all my juice pouches and movies" Jesse said with a chuckle.
"no you won't get arrested or killed, but it is a huge favor" Beca assured Jesse.
"okay... so what is it?" Jesse asked.
"well... umm... so... like if you don't want to do it that's totally fine... but umm... Chloe and i... wanted to ask... if you would umm... fathermychild" Beca barely got that last part out before she completely regretted it. there was silence on the other end. suddenly Jesse ended the call. Beca day down on her bed in complete, and utter shock. what had she just done. had she really just destroyed her longest and closest friendship. Beca burst into tears, lying alone in her bed. she cried herself to sleep. but suddenly she was being shaken awake by a familiar hand and voice. Jesse. it was Jesse. he pulled her into a tight hug, and Beca felt... safe... and protected.
"yes! of course i will Beca! you're going to be an amazing mom!" Jesse said, his voice full of excitement. tears filled both of their eyes and the two sat there in silence for a few moments.
"thank you, thank you so much Jesse!" Beca said before drifting back to sleep in Jesse's arms. soon after Jesse also fell asleep, and they laid there, in complete peace. when Chloe peeked her head into the room, her entire body was filled with rage, but then she remembered the sacrifice he was making for them, and decided to give him this one night. for he was giving her the rest of her life. the following morning they decided that they had to come up with a plan. they all knew that in order for their arrangement to go smoothly, they had to keep things organized and stick to the plan.
they decided that when the baby was born, Jesse would be able to be in the delivery room if he wanted (next to Beca's head of course). Jesse could help raise the baby if he wanted, but they wouldn't tell the baby that he was the father. also any and all major decisions, would be made by Chloe and Beca, like the name of the baby, what to do if there were any complications, what schools the baby would attend, etcetera. most of the rules and regulations were made by Chloe, but Beca and Jesse didn't say anything, because they knew how hard this whole situation must be for her, but it would be worth it, in the end.
