Chloe took a shower and couldn't help but hum as she washed her hair. She couldn't wipe the smile off of her face. She knew it had been hard on Beca when she found out the truth and she knew it would be hard for the other girl to just let it go, but for now, she was happy. She knew she could help them both get over it.
Chloe brushed her hair and let it hang loose down her shoulders as she got ready. She put on a red dress, which made her look attractive and sexy, but it was simple at the same time. She put on her makeup, some perfume and grabbed her phone to check the time. It was 6:42, which meant Beca should be there shortly.
Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang and Chloe bit her cheeks to stop her from grinning like an idiot as she opened the door. Beca was wearing a short coral dress and her hair was up and, for the first time since she's seen her in months, her hair was curled. She looked absolutely gorgeous and the smile plastered on her face made her even more beautiful. She was even wearing heels.
"Wow, you look amazing!" Chloe said.
"Thanks, you look.. dazzling." Beca said.
Chloe chuckled.
"Thanks." Chloe said.
"So, you're ready to go?" Beca asked.
Chloe nodded and got out, locking the door after herself and following Beca out to her car. Beca opened the door for Chloe with a smile and the redhead smiled back.
Beca drove for a while, Chloe had no idea where she was taking them. Even back when they were dating Beca was unpredictable.
Chloe bit her lip as she saw the brunette park in front of a seafood restaurant by the beach. They got out, Beca leading Chloe out to the balcony in the second floor, which was all theirs for the evening. There were candles all round, one on the table and a few ones on the ends, making everything look romantic. They could hear the ocean and the light summer breeze was cool. It was a perfect night.
Beca held the chair out for Chloe and she sat down with a smile.
"I know I had a few hours to plan-" Beca started.
"Beca, this is perfect. The candles, the ocean, the balcony.." Chloe sighed. "This is absolutely perfect."
Chloe thought the look on Beca's face as she smiled was absolutely adorable. She lit up like a little kid, yet her smile was gorgeous.
"So you like seafood, then?" Beca asked. Chloe saw she was a little nervous, so she just chuckled.
"I love it." Chloe said.
Beca smiled even bigger and raised her fist in the air in celebration, which made Chloe laugh.
Their even went by like this. Light conversations, smiles, laughing, listening to the ocean. Chloe had butterflies in her stomach the entire time. Her date with Beca up until now was perfect, she couldn't help but wonder if she had anything else planned.
After dessert, Beca paid, much to Chloe's reluctance, and the brunette got up, reaching out her hand for the redhead to take.
Chloe bit her lip to hide her smile as she took Beca's hand. She led them out of the restaurant. Chloe was going to Beca's car, but the brunette stopped her.
"We're not going back to the car?" Chloe asked.
"Maybe it'd be best if we put our shoes in there." Beca said. She put her and Chloe's heels in the backseat and led her to the beach.
"We're going to the beach?" Chloe asked, giddy.
"Yeah." Beca said.
Chloe squealed in excitement and clapped her hands as they walked closer to the ocean.
"Your excitement is extremely cute." Beca said with a giggle.
"Thanks. You are extremely cute, too." Chloe said, making the short brunette blush a very dark red.
"I am not cute." Beca said, scrunching her nose, absent-mindedly making Chloe think she looked even cuter.
"You totes are." Chloe said.
Beca crossed her arms and huffed, making Chloe giggle.
"Why don't you wanna be known as cute?" Chloe asked, rolling her eyes with a smile.
"Because.. well, when you see a woman as short as me, you can only think of her as 'cute', you're not gonna say 'she's beautiful' or even 'she's hot'." Beca said.
Chloe laughed, making Beca confused.
"You don't understand? It doesn't matter how short you are, Becs, I still think you're hot." Chloe said with a wink.
Beca's cheeks were burning by now, she was thankful that the darkness didn't let Chloe see just how much she was blushing.
"You don't say much, but it makes my heart beat like crazy!" Beca said.
Chloe smiled.
"Yeah and I'm proud of it." Chloe said. "Come on, let's go closer to the sea."
Beca giggled as Chloe grabbed her hand and led her closer to the waves. Chloe squealed and giggled when the cold water touched her feet and she ran back to Beca.
"Come on!" she said, grabbing both her wrist and taking her with her to the shore. Beca gasped as she felt the water against her toes, but giggled afterwards.
"I thought the water would be colder." Beca said.
"It feels great, huh?" Chloe said.
Beca smiled at watching how happy the redhead was.
"Thanks for an amazing date, Beca." Chloe said with a genuine smile. "It was absolutely perfect."
"I'm glad you had fun, Chlo." Beca said with a smile. She stared into the redhead's eyes, which were shining so much it felt like the whole beach was illuminated. Her gaze fell to her lips. She wondered what Chloe's lips tasted like and what her kisses were like. She made a mental bet with herself that Chloe would be a good kisser.
Chloe noticed Beca staring at her, but she wasn't gonna push the girl, she was gonna let her take her time. She was fine if she wanted to kiss her, but she couldn't forget that Beca was like a virgin all over again.
"C-Can I kiss you?" Beca asked.
"Yes." Chloe smiled.
Beca stood on her toes and pressed her lips lightly against Chloe's. She felt an incredible spark, it was familiar, like she'd kissed her lips before. She kept her lips there for a moment before standing back, looking at Chloe for her reaction.
Chloe opened her eyes and smiled down at Beca, which made her lean in for another kiss. This time, she was braver, she ran her tongue across Chloe bottom lip and the redhead granted her access, allowing her to explore her mouth.
Beca wrapped her arms around Chloe's neck and the redhead put hers around the smaller woman's waist, bringing her closer.
Chloe moaned as she felt Beca's tongue massage hers. The girl was an even better kisser than she was before. Chloe was expecting her to be a little shy, not dominant like she was now.
Beca pulled apart and saw that Chloe's pupils were dilated, her cheeks were red and her lips were a little swollen.
"Am I still a good kisser?" Beca asked.
"No." Chloe said and Beca's heart stopped. "You're an even better kisser."
Beca chuckled as Chloe pulled her in for another kiss.
What was meant to be a quick kiss turned into a long, passionate kiss, then into another and another, until Chloe had to pull back and remind herself to keep her hormones in check. She couldn't go ripping Beca's clothes off, no matter how hard she want to do so.
"That was absolutely perfect." Chloe said with a dreamy sigh.
Beca smiled.
"I'm glad." Beca said. "I'm gonna try to top if off for our second date."
Chloe smiled.
"Want me to take you home?" Beca asked.
"Yeah." Chloe said. She was feeling a bit weird about this. She had dated Beca before, they had been living together, she had even been waiting for the girl to propose to her, but then they fell apart.
Chloe was used to going home with the brunette, with spending every single second with her, but she knew she'd have to wait for that.
Beca drove to Chloe's house and stopped with a sigh.
"Listen, Chloe.. I know you're probably a little disappointed that I'm not gonna go in with you. I know we dated for three years and stuff, but.. you're gonna have to be a bit patient with me." Beca bit her lip.
"I know, Becs. I'm gonna wait. I waited for you back then and I'm gonna wait for you now." Chloe assured.
Beca smiled.
"Thanks." Beca said.
Chloe nodded and thought for a moment as she looked at her house. She bit her lip and turned to Beca.
"Walk me to my door?" she asked.
Beca raised an eyebrow but got out nonetheless. She followed Chloe up to her door and the redhead smiled down at her.
"So, how come I walked you to your door?" Beca asked.
"Well, I wanted to kiss you again, but I didn't want to make out in your car." Chloe said.
Beca chuckled and shook her head at the redhead.
"I guess that wouldn't work very well, huh?" Beca said.
"No." Chloe said from previous experience.
Beca smiled and grabbed Chloe by the back of her neck and pulling her in for a kiss. Chloe's hands soon found themselves on Beca's waist and the short brunette put her arms around her neck, playing with the hair on the back of her neck gently, making Chloe's shiver and moan into her mouth.
Beca didn't even notice she was pressing Chloe up against her front door until she was going to wrap her left arm around the redhead's waist but her fist collided with the wooden door with a loud thud.
Beca pulled away from the kiss immediately to yelp in pain.
"Ow!" she said. She held her hair for a few minutes as Chloe asked her if she was okay. She then slowly tried to move her fingers and saw it hurt a little, but she could do it. She moved her fingers a few more times before the pain went away.
"Are you okay?" Chloe asked, biting her lip in concern.
"Yeah." Beca said. "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Chloe smiled.
"I should get going." Beca said.
"Wait."
Beca looked up at Chloe in time to have her kiss her again for a few moments before pulling away with a happy sigh.
"I needed another kiss." Chloe said with a smirk.
Beca giggled.
"No problem." Beca said and kissed her again. "I'll see you tomorrow."
Chloe nodded, biting her lips as she watched the brunette drive away before getting inside her house.
sorry, this is short, the next one will be longer, I promise!
