Thanks for the reviews guys :)
Emma: Well I plan to make this story long and I also thought about a sequel, but I'm not really sure yet.
becs: It's not clear if she's gay, bi or straight yet and I want to keep it that way for now ;) I kinda like awesomeness more haha but thanks.
In this chapter you'll find out a little bit more about Chloe :)
Don't pay attention to my mistakes, I always start to write when it's like 11pm or later so I'm always kinda tired to top my not so good english skills haha
Enjoy :)
I tried to remember last night and I remembered falling asleep. On Chloe's couch! With her cuddled up to me!
I wanted to move but I couldn't, I was trapped under a body. I looked down and saw just a wild red mane. I smiled, it felt really nice having Chloe hugging my torso and her head on my stomach. She was a cuddle monster.
I looked around me. We weren't in the living room anymore, but in what I assumed was her room and her bed. Her bed?! How for fuck's sake did I get there?
Suddenly Chloe stirred slightly and I held still like I was paralyzed. She cuddled me even tighter, but then stopped moving for a second before she looked up at me. She smiled and said: "Good morning sleepy head."
"Hey", I smiled back, "How did I get here? I can't remember moving anywhere."
"You fell asleep and I didn't want to wake you, so I called your mom, asked her if you could stay the night and then carried you up to my room. I would have let you sleep in the guest room, but I really wanted to cuddle", she grinned.
"You're such a cuddle monster, Red", I smiled at her. She lied her head back against my stomach.
"Just give me five more minutes, you're just so warm and perfect to cuddle. And then we can go eat some breakfast."
"I hope you'll cook me some breakfast", I smirked, "I really liked that breakfast you brought me at the hospital and I knew you didn't buy it."
"Sure, I'll cook for you, but you still owe me lunch. Now be quiet, I still have four minutes of cuddle time with my turtle."
I laughed at how adorable she was.
4 minutes became 15, but I didn't mind. I really enjoyed being near Chloe.
We finally got up and wanted to go downstairs, but my crutches were still in the living room.
"Uhm... Chloe? Could you bring me my crutches", I asked shyly.
"Oh that's no problem", she answered. I thought she would really just bring me the crutches, but what I didn't expected was her carry me bride style. I squealed surprised and she laughed at me.
For a slim girl, Chloe was actually very strong though.
"Geez, are you working out or something?", I asked as she took me to the kitchen.
She laughed again. And dear god, how I loved her laugh.
"No, you're just really tiny." I groaned and she stick her tongue out at me.
She set me up on a stool at the kitchen counter even though I told her to bring me to the living room, where I could get my crutches.
She begun to make us breakfast and we started a small talk. But then she asked something I wanted to avoid: "So tell me something about you, I don't know very much yet. I just met your mother, but what's with your father?"
Well, she would ask me sooner or later anyway so I answered: "My...my father is dead."
She let the fork fall and turned around in my direction.
"I'm so sorry, Beca. I shouldn't have asked."
"No, it's fine", I smiled sadly. She came up to me and because I sat on a stool at the counter, she hugged me from behind. I just couldn't get used to it and froze every time she touched me, but I relaxed after a moment.
I surprised myself as I continued to tell her about him: "He died in a car accident three years ago. He was a great man, my best friend actually. He was there for me as noboby else was."
Chloe didn't say anything, she just listened and leaned her chin on my shoulder.
I tried to suppress my tears. Chloe hugged me tighter and then let go.
She lightened up the atmosphere by changing the subject and asking me if I wanted some bacon.
"Yes please", I attempted to give her a genuine smile, but I failed.
I still thought about my dad and how I wish he could have met Chloe.
She didn't dare to ask me anything serious anymore and told me more about herself instead.
I asked her where she actually moved from.
"I lived in Florida, but we had to move because of my dad's job."
"Do you miss it there?"
"I do miss my friends", she answered.
"Oh, did you find new friends here?" It was dumb question, of course she did, everyone wanted Chloe as a friend.
"Besides you, not really, no.", she replied. I didn't expect her to say that.
"But you're like super popular and everyone likes you."
"Did you watch me, Miss Mitchell?", she asked playfully.
I rolled my eyes: "I didn't have to, the whole school knows you."
She frowned: "They don't really care about me. The guys are just interested in me, because they think I'm pretty and want to date me and the girls think I would fit in their clique or something. Sorry, but I'm not a mean girl and I don't wear pink on Wednesday."
Suddenly I felt kind of bad for finding Chloe pretty, but I didn't like her just for her looking.
I loved how bubbly she was. I loved her humor, she made me laugh all the time. I loved how caring she was and how she brightened up the room just entering. Even if I didn't like people touching me, I loved Chloe's lack of respect for personal space. Wait, love? Yup, I was definitely screwed.
"What about me? Why are we friends?", I asked and kicked myself mentally. Finally you have a friend and then you still have to question it? What is wrong with you?
"I don't know. I just like you. You're different, good different, I told you that already", she smiled at me and I smiled back.
"Just admit it, you couldn't escape my charm", I smirked.
"Oh, yeah, your charm is a big part", she laughed, "But you think you're a badass, however you're really just a softy underneath a thin shell and I'll break it."
"What makes you so sure you'll make it?", I asked cockily.
"I already managed to do it", she said while placing the plate in front of me, "You care about me and please, you let me cuddle with you."
"To my defense, I was really sleepy", I said.
"Mhm sure. So if I would sit down next to you and hold your arm, you would push me away?"
I got silent.
"I didn't think so", she said as she sat next to me and really looped our arms, while she started to eat with her free hand.
I stared at her and she gave me her big smile infecting me with it.
"I hope you don't have anything planned for today?", she said after a moment of silence.
"I don't, why?"
"Firstly, you owe me lunch and secondly, I thought we could go to the mall after that and hang out for a bit."
"Sure, we could do that", I smiled.
But really, the mall? How cliché was that? Teenagers hanging out at a mall, going shopping or whatever. But for Chloe I would even go on a whole 24h shopping tour if it meant spending time with her. Yes, I was that whipped.
vahuene: You'll see soon enough how Chloe is gonna find out about Beca being gay ;)
I want to know your conjectures about how you think Chloe will find out, I like to know what people suspect happens next :)
