Summary: Chloe decides it's time to let Beca know how she feels while they cuddle on her bed by singing "Kiss Me" By Ed Sheeran (This is my favorite song by him, not that you care.) :]
*****Sorry for any mistakes, wrote this today.*****
Beca didn't like flashy. She was never a fan of huge romantic gestures, which aided into her dislike for movies, specifically cliché ones. And that made it hard for Chloe. She wanted to give Beca the whole damn world, but didn't want the introverted brunette to be uncomfortable.
They had yet to say those three words, that Beca dreaded so much. Because it made things official. Official that her heart would somehow get broken. But Chloe was different. She was so Chloe, that it didn't even matter. But that doesn't mean she was going to say it first.
And that's how they found themselves in this position now. It wasn't grand, but if Chloe was involved, it was special.
They were in Chloe's room, snuggled up on her bed. Beca was sleeping, and she was in one of Chloe's pajama button ups, and underwear, and that was it. Her hair was slightly messy, but Chloe didn't think she could look more beautiful at the moment. Beca was on top of Chloe, her face buried in the crook of her neck while their legs were tangled together, giving Chloe's goosebumps.
Chloe's heart was pounding as her slim fingers continued to thread through Beca's hair, while the other hand rubbed up and down the skin of her sides. She knew it wouldn't be an inappropriate time. They've been dating for a few months, and had already known each other from before, but it still felt off. Probably because she was so nervous.
But Chloe didn't do nervous, and she definitely didn't do anxious. But this was Beca, and Beca has never been in a stable relationship. From what she's heard from the girl, whenever her interest would even think about saying the L word, she would sense it and run for the hills.
So Chloe was in the definition of 'Sticky Situation.' What was she going to do about the beautiful brunette beneath her? What would Beca say?
"Sack up, dude."
Chloe grimaced, bad idea.
She was beginning to get frustrated, telling Stacie she was in love with her would probably be easier. But the hunter was tamed and taken by Aubrey—her best friend—so her thoughts were completely improper right now.
"Mmm, Chlo, I can hear you thinking." Her voice was soft, and raspy, and if it weren't for the small vibration on her neck, she wouldn't of believed it happened.
"Shhh, babe, go back to sleep." Beca groaned against her neck.
"Not with the way your heart's beating." Chloe bit her lip, Beca's sleepy voice was sexy and only served to make her heart's thumping increase.
"Sorry." Beca propped herself up with her elbows. Chloe's breath hitched as she took in the DJ's appearance. Beca's eyes were droopy and she was giving her one of those sleepy half-smiles that was reserved for her eyes only.
"What're you lookin' at?" Chloe lightly chuckled at her slurred words.
"You're really beautiful, you know that?" A ruby blush climbed up Beca's face from the base of her neck. She once again buried her face in the crook of the ginger's neck, making said ginger giggle.
"Flattery gets you nowhere, Beale."
"That statement is incorrect, Mitchell. It got me a blush from the most secretly adorable self-proclaimed badass."
"Take that back, punk." Beca playfully punched at her shoulder.
"Violence isn't the answer."
"But sleep is, so let's get back to that." Beca gently kissed her neck and closed her eyes.
They got where they were because of music. Music binded their souls together. And if Chloe was going to get any further into this relationship, she had to do it through music, right now.
She took a deep breath. It was going to be okay, Beca was calm and relaxed and had zero energy to run. It was the perfect atmosphere and they were alone. She already built her bridge, all she had to do was cross over it. The vibes were good, and so was her voice.
"Settle down with me
Cover me up,
Cuddle me in
Lie down with me
And hold me in your arms" Chloe could feel the growing smile engraving itself into her neck, and it only urged her to carry on.
"And your heart's against my chest, your lips pressed to my neck
I'm falling for your eyes, but they don't know me yet
And with a feeling I'll forget, I'm in love now" Beca's body tensed, but Chloe carried on anyways. She couldn't stop now.
"Kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love" She didn't really have a right to speak for Beca in this situation, but the brunette was still wrapped up in her arms. Probably still processing Ed Sheeran's words.
"Settle down with me
And I'll be your safety
You'll be my lady
I was made to keep your body warm
But I'm cold as the wind blows so hold me in your arms" Beca was biting her lip, she didn't know what to do. But if the warmth traveling in enormous waves throughout her entire anatomy had any indication, then she was doing the right thing by staying, and listening.
"Oh no
My heart's against your chest, your lips pressed to my neck
I'm falling for your eyes, but they don't know me yet
And with this feeling I'll forget, I'm in love now" Chloe's erratic heart deceased each second Beca stayed in her arms. She wasn't saying anything—not that she would because she always lets her sing—but in a way, her not leaving was her wordlessly accepting Chloe. The brunette was never good with words anyways, and never will be. But actions do speak louder than them, so this was going pretty well.
"Kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love" Beca began humming along with Chloe's words. And Chloe could only hope that she would join along in the singing. But hope only gets a person so far.
"Yeah I've been feeling everything
From hate to love
From love to lust
From lust to truth
I guess that's how I know you
So I hold you close to help you give it up" Beca joined in on that verse, but only that verse. Their voices mingled together in the soft acoustics of Chloe's room. The truth behind the words—for Beca at least—only made the song more special.
Ultimately, titanium was their song, but at this very moment, Chloe needed something for their current situation. Next time "Songs Perfect For Telling Someone You Love Them While Said Person Is On Top Of You Half Asleep On Your Bed" comes on as a category, she'll know what to sing.
"So kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love" Beca once again propped herself up on her elbows and stared deep into the depths of the pretty, baby blue eyes that were looking right back at her. She just had to make sure Chloe meant it, she was already in too deep the first time they went on a date, she couldn't let her heart get broken like her mother's. She refused.
"Kiss me like you wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
You wanna be loved
This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
We're falling in love" Chloe's angelic voice still lingered in Beca's ear, even when the song finished. Chloe nervously bit her lip. The song was over, and Beca was free to say anything she wanted.
"Beca-"
"Shhh," Chloe's eyes widened, she was going to leave, wasn't she. "Just be quiet and let me analyze how amazing of a person you are." Chloe's heart swelled at Beca's words. The corners of her mouth were twitching up as she tried to contain her excitement.
"Chlo?"
"Hmm?"
"I wanna be loved." Beca lowered her lips to Chloe's and indulged her in a passionate, sweet kiss.
The DJ's hands cupped her ginger counterpart's face. Beca untangled their legs and placed it on either side of Chloe's waist and leaned in closer. Chloe took no time in placing her hands on the back of Beca's thighs.
Their lips moved in sync, displaying the love that neither could explain in a single kiss. Beca pried Chloe's mouth open with her tongue and Chloe moaned. Their tongues battled for dominance, Chloe winning.
Chloe's hands moved from their position on Beca's thighs to her ass, which was only covered by the thin material of her underwear. She gave it a tight squeeze and swallowed Beca's moan.
Before things could escalate, Beca pulled away and rested her forehead against Chloe's. Their eyes were shut as they took in the presence of each other.
Beca kissed her way down to Chloe's neck and rested her head there. She took a deep breath, taking in Chloe's scent. It was a mix of strawberries, kiwis, and something that'll only ever be described as Chloe.
It was quiet, a relaxing kind of silence that you just want to bask in. So that's what they did.
Chloe's arms snaked around Beca's waist and pulled her impossibly closer.
"I love you."
"I love me, too."
"Shut it, Beale."
"I love you too, Beca."
"Good."
And that's how they stayed for the rest of the day.
*****The End*****
A/N: Because I took so long to update last time. And if you go back to Chapter 5, you'll see translations for what Beca said at the end of the chapter.
(I feel like this was super crappy and rushed.)
