Part 10

Dear Beca,

Hiya there, Pvt Mitchell! ;) If your mixing equipment could talk; I'm pretty sure it would say, 'I miss you Becaaa!' You should know by now, from that the amount of time you have been away from your pride and joy, that of course I'll bring your equipment with me. One day you should teach me how you work your bad ass abilities of mixing such aca-mazing music! I got those invites to your graduation a few days after I got your letter. :) When I asked Aubrey, she immediately, without any hesitation, said yes to wanting to be there because she wants to see your ass get smoked... whatever that means. Babe, what does that even mean? 'Getting smoked?' Is it fun? Just to let you know, I have two other people coming: Aubrey and Jesse. We're all coming to see your bad ass soldier self graduate. I really, really can't wait to see you! Lets just say that Jesse and Aubrey haven't exactly been discreet on what they do in the privacy of Aubrey's bedroom... If your forming a mental picture of them, try being in the place while... okay, not going there! Although, I have to say my lady, jam is not exactly cutting it for me. Did you get that? Well, I guess I'll behave myself and not give you details, but your name does slip just as I...okay, totally done now! ;) I love and miss you! See you in a few weeks, Private Mitchell. ;)

Yours Always,
Chloe

I guess I can go visit my parents...I haven't really seen them in awhile, Chloe thought to herself while leaving a note for Aubrey letting her know where she went. Which will probably go unnoticed, but its better safe than sorry.

Chloe's parents have met Beca a few times, whenever their daughter would bring her over for dinner. Chloe just wanted a reason to hang out with Beca. Some parents would think nothing of it, but with Chloe's parents, they knew right from the beginning that there was definitely something more; often wondering if they were even aware of their obvious feelings for each other.

"Chloe, sweetie?" says, trying to grab her daughter's attention. "Are you ever going to tell Beca how you feel?"

Chloe just stared at her mother in disbelief. As she opens her mouth to say something, she closes it again. She chuckles to herself.

"Honey, your father and I figured it out long ago. She hasn't been around, nor have you. Did you two have a fight or something? Where is she?"

I know my mom means well, but this line of questioning is really bizarre to me. They have never taken an interest in who I dated or hung out with, other than Aubrey. But that was different. The two of us basically grew up together. The first time I brought Beca over here, we were just friends. But, of course, they liked her instantly. Beca and my dad had formed a bond, which makes me wonder what they even bonded over. As I'm pondering on this, I forget my mom is still waiting for an answer.

"She joined the army." Chloe says noticing her mother seem un-phased by it. "Did my parents know about this?", she thought to herself. "She's in Fort Jackson, South Carolina. She'll be graduating in a few weeks."

Chloe, more or less, has given Beca hints that she liked her, but Beca being Beca, wavered it off as Chloe just being her usual touchy-feely self. Not that the bad ass Beca would make this known, but she found it comfortable, and quite possibly, the best feeling in the world.

What are you doing right now? - Beca

Seconds later, Beca's phone vibrates. it was a text back from Chloe. Beca then feels a warm feeling of some kind arising within her.

Talking to you now :) Can I come over? - Chloe

Just come over, dork! ;P - Beca

Chloe puts her phone in her pocket, opening the door to Beca's room. The brunette hears the door open, expecting to see her roommate coming back from wherever, but to her surprise, she sees Chloe standing before her.

"Were you texting me from outside my door?", Beca smirks.

"Maybe." Chloe answers innocently, walking closer to the brunette who's slouching in her computer chair. "You know, I had this sudden urge to see you." She says making her way towards the confused DJ, taking a seat in her lap. "I wanted to just bask in the wondrous of one Ms. Beca Mitchell.", she says smiling, as she turns her head to face her.

"Um... wow... uh..." at a loss of words, Beca begins to feel her heart beat rapidly in the hopes that Chloe couldn't feel it. As the redhead leans closer to her, Beca looks up with a raised eyebrow. "Comfy?"

Chloe wraps her arms around Beca, bringing her lips to hers. They kiss for awhile, but Beca suddenly remembers what is soon to be the inevitable; she was leaving. But with Chloe looking at her like that, she couldn't bring herself to say anything.

"Beca, what's the matter?"

Beca didn't want to tell her, but like many times before, the redhead, without trying, had a way of getting her to spill the beans.

"Chloe, I...uh...I'm leaving tomorrow."

"Wait, what? What do you mean you are leaving? Was the kiss that bad, or unless... you're not...oh, my god... Beca, I'm sorry...I shouldn't have-" She says with a panic.

Beca cuts her off. "Stop! I signed up for the Army, and I ship off tomorrow to boot camp. The kiss was not bad, but whats the point? You're leaving too." She points out, looking away.

"That's the thing, I came here to tell you that I decided to stay here for graduate school. I wanted to see if you would go a date with me sometime." Chloe explains, brings Beca to look at her. "I'm so in love with you. But now you're leaving. What great timing I have, huh?" She says, not sure why she was joking.

"Yeah, but why would you want to stay here? I thought whatever Aubrey does you follow; isn't that how you two work?" She asked, putting the last thing she said in air quotes.

"She's staying too, apparently. She has a thing for Jesse." Chloe says, soon realizing what she said and quickly covers her mouth. Beca's face is stoic. "Oh god..I wasn't supposed to say anything.", Chloe says with panic.

Beca chuckles to herself. "Its fine. I already know... I have to go."

Chloe looks confused. "Beca? This is your room." She points out. Beca lies face down on her bed . Chloe takes the hint. "See you later or whatever. Good luck Beca."

"We'll have to go. Your father and I. We can make it a surprise.", her mother says.

Chloe just goes over to her mom, hugging her lovingly. "That is a great idea! So, you're okay with Beca and I being together?"

"Who do you think asked us if it was okay to ask our only daughter?", her mother raises an eyebrow.

"So that's the conversations Beca and Dad had, huh?" Chloe says, realization sinking in. She looks to her mom and smiles. "You really do like Beca, don't you?"

"Obviously my child...tell Aubrey we said hi, and that she should bring Jesse over so we can make sure he is good enough for her."

"Oh mom... believe me, he is good enough. Chloe smiles.
