"Where the hell have you been?" Chloe yelled as soon as Aubrey walked through the door, "You left at ass crack o'clock in the morning and it's the middle of the fucking night and I had no clue where you were and you could've been murdered and I wouldn't have known and where the fuck were you?"
"Oh, um" Aubrey stuttered over her words
"Are you drunk?" Chloe yelled shrilly when she smelt whiskey on the blonde's breath
"Maybe a little?" Aubrey held her thumb and index finger an inch apart
"Oh my god" Chloe threw her hands up dramatically, "Here I am, scared to death that something horrible happened to you and you were out getting drunk"
"I just needed some liquid courage" Aubrey murmured, stepping closer to Chloe
"To do what? Get yourself murdered? Kidnapped?" Chloe was too angry to notice the gap between them closing until she felt lips on her own and nails digging into her hips, "What do you think you're doing?"
"You're so beautiful" Aubrey murmured against Chloe's neck
"You're so drunk" Chloe had to force herself to gently push Aubrey back
"Doesn't mean that I don't want to do this" Aubrey advanced on Chloe, "and I know you want this too"
Chloe isn't exactly sure how it happened just that she had one of the best orgasms of her life before passing out with a beautiful blonde in her arms and when she woke up at five am she was alone again with nothing but a text from Aubrey to let her know where the blonde had gone
"I'm at the library, will probably be there all day. Coffee on the counter x"
"Hey Bree" Chloe greeted, setting her books down next to Aubrey who barely glanced at her
"Hey Chlo"
"So… We going to talk about last night?" Chloe asked gently, knowing that too much too fast would make Aubrey run
"No, I don't think we are" Aubrey said coldly
"… Okay" Chloe replied after a moment's hesitation before looking down at her books
"It can't happen again" Aubrey went on, "It was just a phase. I was curious and you were there."
"That's fine" Chloe tried not to show how much Aubrey's words had affected her
"I'm completely straight"
"Who are you trying to convince? Me or yourself?" Chloe asked, "I know this is confusing for you, Bree, I know but don't shut me out"
"It was a mistake" Aubrey clenched her jaw and looked away from Chloe, "Both times were. I hope that this doesn't get in the way of our friendship"
"Oh" Chloe breathed, "Okay. Well, I'll just leave you to your studies"
"Hey Chl- What's wrong?" Beca asked immediately when the red head opened her dorm door to let the small brunette it
"Nothing" Chloe forced a smile onto her face, "I'm peachy"
"You've been crying, what's wrong? Whose ass do I have to kick?"
"You're many things, Becs, but a kicker of ass is not one of them" Chloe giggled
"Hey, I am bad ass. Hard core. I could tear a motherfucker down" Beca frowned
"Yeah okay and I'm Aubrey Hepburn reincarnate"
"Seriously though Chlo, what's wrong?" Beca asked after sitting in comfortable silence with her friend
"Do you think having sex with me would be a mistake?" Chloe asked
"What?"
"Like if we had sex, once maybe twice, would you call it a mistake?"
"I'd call it the best day of my life" Beca grinned
"Don't you have a toner for a treble?"
"What? Ew no" Beca shuddered, "I mean Jesse is kind of cute but he likes movies way too much"
"But when we hung out with the trebles you admitted to having a toner for one?"
"No I didn- Wait did he say treble? Oh my god, I thought he said bella" Beca groaned, covering her face with one hand "No wonder Jesse has been more aggressive with his weird flirting style"
"Who do you have a toner for then?" Chloe asked excitedly
"None of your business, Miss Beale"
"Come on" Chloe whined
"Why would you ask if having sex with you would be a mistake?" Beca not so subtly changed the topic
"No reason. Just wondering, a girls got to boost her confidence somehow, right?" Chloe winked, "Anyway, lets watch a movie"
"No" Beca groaned, "I'll take you to visit a gynaecologist"
"Just one" Chloe begged
"Ugh, fine"
"You're the best" Chloe leant down to press a kiss against Beca's cheek
"I'm home" Chloe called into their apartment, noticing Aubrey wasn't in the lounge room or kitchen, "Beca felt sick so I came home early"
After a minute of receiving no reply, Chloe started walking around the apartment
"Bree?" She called and jumped when a door behind her opened, "There you ar- Who are you?"
"I'm Tom" The tall boy with slicked back hair said
"Hello Tom, what are you doing in my apartment?" Chloe was trying not to freak out but seeming's as there was a very tall strange man in her apartment and no Aubrey in sight, she was very worried
"I'm Aubs' boyfriend" He smiled holding out his hand, "You must be Chloe"
"Boyfriend? I'm sorry, where is Aubrey?" Chloe shook her head
"She just ran down to the store, we ran out of condoms" Tom winked and Chloe scrunched her face up in distaste
"Gross" Chloe said before turning on her heel and slamming her bedroom door closed
"Chlo?" Chloe heard her door open and Aubrey's soft whisper ring through her room
"Go fuck Tom, I don't want to talk to you" Chloe's reply was muffled by her blanket
"I sent Tom home" Aubrey said, sitting on the edge of Chloe's bed
"Go away"
"I didn't want you to meet him like this" Aubrey whispered, "You were meant to be at Beca's all night"
"Yeah, she got sick" Chloe replied, "I don't care. Go away."
"I didn't mean to hurt you"
"No? I mean why would it hurt me when my best friend fucks me, ignores me, says it was a mistake and then gets a secret boyfriend. I can see why you would think this wouldn't hurt." Chloe replied sarcastically
"Chlo-"
"It's whatever, Aubrey, I don't fucking care" Chloe snarled, "Just let me go to sleep"
"Chlo-" Aubrey was cut off by lips crashing into her own and she couldn't make herself pull away even when she felt tears that weren't her own drip down
"Tell me that was a mistake" Chloe's voice cracked, "Tell me it was a mistake and you don't want me"
"I can't" Aubrey whispered and her heart broke a little bit when Chloe let out a sob
"Why?"
"I want you more than I want to breathe"
"Then have me. Take me. I'm yours, Bree"
"I can't" Aubrey stood and left Chloe's room, each sob she heard making her want to turn around and comfort the red head but she couldn't. She was with Tom now, Tom who was on his last year of studying law and already interning at a successful branch with the promise of moving to the bigger branch in New York and her daddy would be proud to call him son. She didn't find home in him and he wasn't right for her and when she felt his hard muscles all she wanted was the softness of Chloe and when she looked into hazel eyes she imagined blue replacing them. Tom was her safe option but she didn't feel home
