Author's note: keep reviewing? wow there are lots of people following this lol thankyou and enjoy i guess


Beca wasn't sure when she should give Chloe the ring. Obviously she was anxious to talk to Chloe again but she didn't want to seem too eager...It had only been a day since Chloe came looking for it. Throughout the day Beca's mind kept drifting over to thoughts of that adorable redhaired teacher and she couldn't shut it off. She wanted to know her; she wanted to know everything about her. There was something strong attracting her to that woman and Beca liked it a lot.

"What's on your mind then mrs?" Aubrey asked knowingly, sitting down next to her friend on the sofa.

It was 5PM and Beca was having a quick dinner before she left for work, but she'd actually been twizzling up the same bit of spaghetti for the past five minutes without realising. Her mind was definitely elsewhere.

"Nothing," Beca said, but she couldn't stop her mouth from curling a little.

"Yeah right, spill jill," Aubrey said.

Aubrey was still in her work clothes- she was an intern lawyer at a big fancy law firm. Beca and Aubrey had been best friends since high school; Aubrey was two years older than Beca, but she moved into the house next door when Beca was fourteen. At first they really hated each other, but after the fire Aubrey was particularly supportive and they realised that they actually got along really well. When Aubrey graduated from college they decided to rent an apartment together in LA, and that's where they met Fat Amy.

"I don't know what you mean," Beca said teasingly.

"Who is it? Is it Luke, are you finally dating Luke?" Aubrey asked excitedly.

"Ew no!"

"Ew?! Don't think I haven't seen you staring at his biceps, Beca. You used to drool over that boy."

"Okay, not ew but no," Beca admitted.

"So who?"

"You don't know them," Beca said.

"Him or her...?"

"Her," Beca blushed.

"So what's her name?"

"Chloe. She's a kindergarten teacher BUT I don't know if she's straight or not yet so don't get too excited," Beca said, trying her best to extinguish the crazy look in her best friend's eyes.

"Wait, you want to date this girl...? Not just sleep with her?"

"Um yeah," Beca said awkwardly. "There's something about her. I don't know what it is. I just...I don't know."

"Wow, you're crushing hard!" Aubrey grinned.

Beca blushed even more.

"Aw Becs."

"Yeah. Anyway. I have to go to work."

"Okay."

"See you tomorrow."

A lot of the time Beca never saw her roommates- Fat Amy worked random shifts throughout the day and night and Aubrey worked 9-5. With Beca working nights that meant that they barely hung out together- except for on Sundays when Fat Amy and Aubrey had the day off. They always had a meal on Sundays, and often went to Beca's bar with her. It was kind of a tradition.


"Hey Beca," Luke said as Beca headed in, going behind the bar. Annoyingly, she could see Jesse driving up outisde. Ugh.

"Hey man."

"So did you give that bird her ring back?" Luke asked, leaning against the bar.

"Oh, no not yet," Beca said, picking up a crate of empty beer bottles and putting them through the door behind the bar that led to the backyard. "And bird?"

"Yeah bird."

"That's so offensive!" Beca accused mockingly, coming back to the bar.

"It's not," Luke protested. "And since when did you become the super feminist lesbian type?"

"Since always. But I'm not a lesbian."

"Lucky for me."

Beca couldn't subdue a grin when she looked at his twinkling blue eyes.

"You are something else Luke."

"I know," he smirked.


The evening was pretty dull after Luke left to pick up stock. Beca had Chloe's ring and the umbrella with her address in her pocket...Should she go? She wasn't sure...Fuck it, she worked way too hard, she could spare one evening.

"Hey Jesse, cover me will you?" she asked, heading out from behind the bar.

"Where are you going?" he asked, confused.

"I've gotta do a thing. Luke knows."

"Oh. Okay. Will you be back?"

"Yeah."

"Okay."

Beca waved goodbye to Jesse and Benji, then headed out into the sunny LA evening air. It was seven thirty and the sun was beginning to set. She looked at the umbrella; Chloe lived at 12A Richie Avenue in West Hollywood. Beca actually knew where that was- it wasn't too far away. With a strange feeling in her stomach, she set off on her moped towards Chloe's house.

It wasn't long before Beca found the street- it was pretty normal looking; lots of apartments, a few convenience stores. Number 12A was a two storey block of apartments, it was nice. For a moment, she just looked at the doors, taking a deep breath, but then she went up the steps and pressed the buzzer.

"Hey who is it?" someone said through the intercom. It wasn't Chloe, she would've recognised Chloe's voice.

"Um, it's Beca, I have Chloe's ring that she lost in my bar? She told me to swing by...so."

"Oh cool, gimme a sec."

The door opened and a tall girl with long brown hair appeared...Beca figured this was Chloe's poledancing roommate, since she was wearing such short shorts and such a revealing crop top. She was very attractive Beca noticed, although not really her type at all (not that she actually had a type, she just wasn't into girls that danced on poles...).

"Hi, I'm Stacie," said the girl, extending a hand for Beca to shake.

"I'm Beca."

"Come in," she said, beaming. "We're having a party in the garden."

"Oh. Okay."

Beca followed Stacie through the apartment. It was nice- it was open plan with light blue walls, a big kitchen and a big living space. There was also a pole in the middle of the room, which was slightly weird...Anyway, Stacie led Beca, through some sliding glass doors and out into a back garden.

"Hey!"

It was Chloe. She looked peng; she was wearing a sky blue sundress and drinking a beer on the lawn with some other people.

"Hi."

"Everyone, this is Beca," Chloe introduced her, beaming. "Beca, these are our neighbours, Cynthia-Rose and Lily, they live upstairs, and this is Stacie's boyfriend, Tom."

They all said hi. Cynthia-Rose was black, she looked cool, so did Lily and Tom. They all looked about Beca's age...Beca wondered whether Luke would mind that she was skipping work, but she didn't really care that much.

"So, I got your ring Chloe," Beca said, sitting down on the lawn next to Chloe.

"Oh, thankyou so much!" Chloe said, and she hugged Beca really enthusiastically. Beca was totally taken aback, but she hugged her back. Chloe smelt really nice...and her body felt really good pressed on Beca's...

"So d'you wanna stay for a beer?" Chloe asked.

"Yeah, sure."

"Great," Chloe smiled and her crystal blue eyes made Beca melt a little bit. "Hey, Stacie, get some more beers!" Chloe called.

"Screw beers, I'm getting shots!"

So, Stacie came into the garden carrying a load of tequila shots. Everyone was sat on the grass in a circle, and Stacie sat on Tom's lap.

"You bitches doing a shot or what?" Cynthia-Rose asked.

Beca shrugged. She ended up doing about five...but as a bartender she could hold her liquor...right?

Stacie went to get a stereo and it kind of ended up being like a real party. Beca never went to college but Fat Amy was known for throwing crazy parties and so was Luke, and she'd had her fair share of wild nights at high school. Anyway, she worked in a bar for crying out loud.

"I think we should play truth or dare," Cynthia-Rose said. She seemed pretty drunk, but Beca was kind of wasted too...

"Yeah!" Tom agreed enthusiastically.

Chloe was sat really close to Beca, and their bare legs were touching a little bit, it was playing havoc with Beca's mind. The way Chloe was smiling told Beca that she might've been doing it on purpose.

"Okay Stacie, your turn," Tom said.

"Yay," Stacie exclaimed.

"Truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"Okay, okay, okay," Cynthia-Rose said. "I dare you to twerk."

Everyone laughed.

"Sure, that is my job," Stacie laughed.

So she twerked, Beca was definitely impressed.

"Chloe, your go," Stacie said.

"Okay. Dare."

"Alright," Tom said. "I dare you to do a poledance!"

"But you know I can't!" Chloe protested.

"Hey, a dare's a dare!" Cynthia-Rose said.

Reluctantly, Chloe staggered inside and everyone followed to watch her.

"Okay don't judge," Chloe said, smiling shyly. Fuck, she's adorable, Beca thought.

"Poledance!" Stacie chanted, while Tom put on some sexy music.

Chloe actually could poledance, really, really well. Beca's eyes were glued to her, literally, it was so hot.

"Wow, Chloe that was hot," Cynthia Rose laughed.

"Thanks."

"Okay who's next?" Tom asked.

"Beca!" Stacie said.

Beca didn't really want to poledance or twerk...

"Dare," she said, and everyone wooped.

"I dare you to do a body shot," Stacie began dramatically. "Off Chloe."

Beca blushed suddenly, but Chloe just grinned at her expectantly.

"Okay," Beca agreed slightly awkwardly.

"I'll get the salt and lime," Stacie said, returning shortly.

Chloe put some salt on her neck, then put a slice of lime in her mouth...Beca looked at her nervously but she just smiled.

So Beca leaned in and licked the salt off Chloe's soft neck, her heart thumping, then did the tequila shot...and kissed her. It took Beca a few moments to get the lime since she was so nervous. Chloe lips were so perfect and soft and she had her arms around Beca's neck. After a moment Beca broke off and spat the lime out. But then she couldn't help it, she leaned in and kissed Chloe again, and Chloe seemed to be really into it too because soon enough Chloe's tongue was on Beca's and Beca's hands were grabbing onto to Chloe's waist and pulling her closer. It was a really hot moment...

"Guys," Lily said. (It was the first thing Beca had heard her say all night.)

They broke off, and Beca blushed even harder, feeling like she'd embarrassed herself in front of everyone. Chloe just bit her lip and smiled.

"Well now we know why Chloe invited Beca," Cynthia-Rose said and everyone laughed.

Beca stayed at the party until about ten but then she got an arsey text from Luke asking her to come back to work. She really didn't want to leave Chloe after that kiss but it seemed like she didn't have a choice.

"Okay you guys, I'm gonna have to take off," Beca announced to a chorus of boos.

"Don't go Beca!" Stacie pleaded.

"Sorry, I've got to work."

"Well, I'll see you to the door," Chloe said.

"Okay, bye everyone."

Chloe led Beca back through the glass doors and through the apartment to the front door.

"So, this was fun," Beca said.

"Yeah."

Beca was stood on the doorstep just looking at Chloe's pretty face. She couldn't keep back a smile remembering what it felt like to have Chloe's mouth on her own.

"You should come round again," Chloe said, her blue eyes twinkling.

"Yeah?"

They were both leaning in slowly, Beca's arms snaking around Chloe's neck. Chloe's lips were an inch away, Beca could feel Chloe's breath on her and it was intoxicating.

"Yeah," Chloe said, and finally closed the gap.

Chloe kissed her slowly at first, her lips were gentle but firm on Beca's, but when Chloe's hands travelled up Beca's t-shirt finding bare skin, Beca found herself deepening the kiss, her tongue longing to discover more of Chloe. Her heart was thudding as Chloe pulled her in closer, she could feel Chloe's tempting body against her own and it was really fit.

"So, I guess, I'll see you around," Beca said breathlessly when they finally broke off for air.

"I can't wait."

Beca grinned then headed off to her moped, waving at Chloe as she drove off.

The only thought Beca had in her mind as she drove back to the bar was: shit balls.


"You look like you've had a good night," Luke said as Beca headed behind the bar.

"Hmm," she said simply, but in her head there was a frickin carnival.

"Tell me then," he demanded, poking Beca and grinning at her.

"I'll tell you later. When Jesse isn't listening in on every word."

"That sounds exciting."

For the whole night Beca was in a total daze, she just kept replaying the kiss- both kisses- over and over again in her head. It was perfect. It was perfect and she was sober enough to enjoy and remember it, that was the best part. No wait, the best part was definitely that it was with Chloe. Chloe, the girl who caught her eye from the first second they met. This was too good to be true, particularly with Beca's luck. Man, she was just in total shock. It was weird.

"Alright, tell me now," Luke said.

It had gone three am and Luke and Beca were alone in the bar; Beca was wiping down the bar and Luke was putting chairs on tables.

"Okay..." Beca agreed with a smile.

"So you went to her house?" he asked probingly.

"Yeah."

"And you kissed her," he smirked.

Beca couldn't even subdue the grin that was forming on her pretty mouth.

He picked up some glasses and headed over to where Beca was stood backed against the bar...for some reason she found herself noticing Luke's biceps, the way his t-shirt clung to his rock-hard body...sexy stubble that she wanted grazing her skin...

He leaned over her to put the glasses on the shelf above the bar.

"Show me how you kissed her," he purred.

"Luke..."

His body was inches from hers, he had her backed against the bar.

"Don't you want it?" he asked.

She was looking into his eyes, desperately searching for the right thing to do, but he'd already leaned in, placing soft kisses from her jaw down to her collarbone...

"I don't..."

Luke bit a sensitive spot on Beca's soft neck and she gasped, grabbing his shoulders for a moment but then pushing him away.

"Stop, I can't, I'm sorry."

"Beca please," he pleaded grabbing her small waist but she was sliding away.

"No, Luke. See you tomorrow kay."

And she hurried out the bar completely flustered and weirded out.


Author's note: hi everyone, thanks for reading if you made it this far. Btw, I realised I've used some words that are kind of slang in England so 'peng' just means good or attractive or tasty, and 'fit' means attractive or sexy. I couldn't really think of any decent alternatives to use...Sorry if you didn't like the bit with Luke but I dunno I find it kinda hot so. pleeeeeease review? thanks again for reading :)
