This one-shot is from the same universe as the first two. If you've read my one-shot titled Grow old with me?, then you know this universe is AU and instead of Beca kissing Jesse she kisses Chloe. This one-shot is based off this idea and what happened at the ICCA's.
Beca was watching a movie with Chloe on her bed. Chloe had barged into Beca's dorm under the pretense of not seeing the younger girl in weeks (One week, but Beca missed Chloe too so…) and after they had caught up on the interesting highlights of the week and new music they were listening to, Chloe begged to watch a movie. Chloe had claimed she was bored but Beca knew Chloe didn't get bored of talking to Beca just like Beca didn't get tired of listening to Chloe. Not to mention, Chloe and Beca could lay in comfortable silence or soft music for hours. But Beca had caved anyways and that's why she was watching a movie. Well, about twenty minutes into it, Beca got uninterested in the movie so Chloe was watching the movie and Beca was watching Chloe. The older girl whose head was laying in Beca's lap had the most exaggerated reactions. The way her eyes would light up and the corners of her mouth would turn up when she found something funny. Or the way that her eyes would get misty and her nose would crinkle when she found something sad or sweet. Beca also found herself tracing Chloe's jaw and cheekbones with her eyes, her gaze falling to pink plump lips and the light dusting of freckles across the bridge of Chloe's nose that spread out on her cheeks. Beca's eyes followed the spiral of red curls and the way they were a lighter strawberry blonde toward the root. She was so engrossed in her quest to dedicate every feature of Chloe that she didn't see that the movie ended or that Chloe was now looking up at her with eyes sparkling with amusement.
"Hey Becs." Chloe said the amusement in her eyes coloring her tone. Beca's eye snapped up from Chloe's lips to meet the redhead's eyes. Chloe let out a teasing smile. "How did you like the movie?"
Beca cleared her throat, "It was...okay."
"What was your favorite part? Mine was when the zombies came to the play."
"Uh...mine too." Beca hesitantly said. Chloe let out a laugh, "Becs, there was no zombies in The Muppets. Did you manage to even get through thirty minutes of the movie?"
Beca sheepishly let out a smile and a shrug, "Sorry? You now I don't really care for movies."
"I know, I just wanted an excuse to cuddle." Chloe said with a grin. Beca gave a dumbfounded expression before she let out a sound of understanding. Chloe sat up and pressed a kiss to her cheek. "You're too cute. I have to go but I'll see you tomorrow?"
"Uh yeah sure." Beca sputtered out as she watched Chloe flounce out of her dorm. Beca reached up to touch where Chloe's lips had been a second before. Beca knew she needed to tell Chloe how she had a major crush on the redhead but she didn't want to just come out and say it in case she was to get rejected. As Beca went to pull up the ICCA set list Aubrey finally let her improve, she got the perfect idea to tell Chloe how she felt.
The crowd erupted in applause and shouts as the Barden Bellas were announced as the winner. Beca felt elated, they had won. The Bellas were screaming and as Beca got swept up in a crushing hug by Stacie and Fat Amy, she grinned at Jesse. Jesse's eyes darted to the redhead squeezing Aubrey and mouthed something along the lines of get your girl. Fat Amy and Stacie put her down as Aubrey and Chloe let go. Before Beca could go get Chloe, however, Aubrey came forward giving Beca a quick hug.
"Thank you. We couldn't of win without you." Aubrey said in the nicest tone Beca has ever heard the blonde direct toward her. Then her voice adopted a cold tone Beca has come to associate with the aca-nazi, "If you hurt her, I will kill you."
Beca gulped and nodded. Aubrey walked away toward the other Bellas, leaving Beca and Chloe alone. Beca fiddled with her thumbs, nerves getting the best of her. Chloe wrapped her up in a giant hug.
"We won! Thank you!" Chloe squealed in Beca's ear. Chloe pulled back before giving a wink, "I especially love that impromptu titanium bit you added."
"Um… about that, I added that for a reason." Beca started nervously. Beca looked down at her thumbs, twiddling them as she looked at the ground and mumbled, "I'm kind of inlovewithyou." A finger lifted her chin and her eyes connected with Chloe's bright blue ones. "Please tell me you heard me because I don't think I can say it again."
"Becs, I couldn't hear that last part. You said it really quietly and it's loud in here." Chloe said with a slight pout. Beca summoned up all the courage she had and leaned forward and pressed her lips to Chloe's quickly. When she went to pull back, Beca felt two hands on her cheeks, pulling her back in and deepening the kiss. Beca's hands found purchase on Chloe's hips and the redhead's body was flush against her.
"Bechloe is alive! CR, you owe me fifty bucks!" Fat Amy shouted. Beca snapped back into reality and pulled back from Chloe with a lazy grin and red cheeks. Chloe had a beaming smile and the Bellas were hooting in the background.
Beca cleared her throat, "I was trying to say that I may be a little bit in love with you."
"Well, then it's a good thing I may be a little bit in love with you too."
