CHAPTER 2:

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Okay, now that Memories Can Go A Long Way is done, it's time to back into this story.

At 12:30pm that same day, Beca & Emily are sitting down at a table inside that cupcake shop.

"So, Emily...why did you want to meet me here?" Beca asked.

"I don't know if you know this, but I haven't had a cupcake in years. And my years long cupcake drought is about to end!" Emily said excited.

"Alright, let's see what you think of the ones here." Beca said as Emily headed up to the counter.

"Yeah, I think I'll try this white cupcake." Emily said pointing to the one she wanted.

She handed the cashier a dollar and then takes the cupcake back to the table. When she sat back down, Emily took her first bite of the cupcake.

"Well, what do you think?" Beca asked.

After Emily finished that first bite..."OH EM ACA-GEE! This is the greatest cupcake I've ever had!" Emily said ecstatic.

"Wow, for someone who hasn't eaten a cupcake in years, I'm glad you like it." Beca said.

"Me too! In fact, I'm gonna come back again tomorrow!" Emily said as she stood up and looked at the cashier. "Ma'am, you've got yourself a number one customer in the making!"

Later that evening, Beca came back home to her apartment.

"Chloe...I'm home!" Beca said.

"Hey, how was your day today?" Chloe asked.

"You'll never guess what happened!" Beca said.

"Tell me!" Chloe said.

"I was meeting Emily for lunch today and apparently she has a new love for cupcakes!" Beca said.

"Wow! That's so great. I'm so happy for her. (sighs) I forgot how sweet cupcakes were." Chloe said.

"What do you mean?" Beca asked.

"When I was 12, my mom had her own cupcake recipe. And a year later she was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and locked up her recipe in a vault. The recipe remained locked up until I went to college." Chloe said.

"Did you ever find it?" Beca asked.

"Yeah. I asked my mom if I could have the recipe. I'm grateful she said yes, but I just didn't have the nerve to try making them yet." Chloe said.

"Well, now that we know at least one Bella has a sweet tooth, maybe that'll give you a reason to try making them." Beca said.

"Yeah. So, where did she try this delicious cupcake you were mentioning?" Chloe asked.

"Sweet & Delicious Cupcakes." Beca said.

"That cupcake shop a few blocks from here?" Chloe asked.

"Yeah. That's the one." Beca said.

"Maybe you & I should go there sometime." Chloe suggested.

"Yeah. I'll text Emily and see if she's up to it." Beca said as sent took out her phone and sent Emily a text saying "Want to go back to that cupcake shop tomorrow?"

Without hesistation, Emily responded saying "Absolutely! Same time as today?"

Beca responded saying "Yep! And I'll even bring Chloe along"

Emily responded saying "Cool. See you tomorrow."
