This is not really traditional babysitting XD this is more like dropping your kid off at the house of the one who is babysitting (it's a programme so it's all safe and checked!) and then picking them up later. (this method doesn't exist it just goes better with the story alright enjoy! XD)
Alsoooo! This one's for Cakedinmud! Thank you for your awesome prompt and don't hesitate to send me more! I'll always do my best to please you all. ;)
"Chloe come down stairs! I'd like for you to meet my new baby to sit on!" Chloe perked up when she heard her big sister Brooke call for her. Brooke was fourteen years old and wanted to have a job so she signed up for this babysitting programme and today was the day that they were going to meet Brooke's first job.
Yeah that sounded a bit better in my head.
The eight year old redhead thundered down the stairs, careful to not fall. She had made that mistake a few years prior and had a scar on her forehead to prove it.
She skipped past the kitchen into the living room, looking every which way to find her sister and the new kid.
"Chlo, over here!" the little girl looked to the right and saw her sister sitting on the couch, with a very small child on her lap. The child had brown hair and very pretty grayish blue eyes, she didn't look older than four. "Hey there fire cracker, this is Beca! She's going to be here every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday." Her sister flattened Beca's hair as Beca reached out to Brooke's blonde locks, pulling at it when she got a good amount of it in her little hands.
Chloe squealed at the adorable sight and once again skipped over to her sister and Beca. The brunette child was a bit apprehensive when the redhead came to close but let out a small smile when she saw the kind, twinkling blue eyes of Chloe Beale.
"Hello" the little girl waved at Chloe and reached out to her hair. "Your hair and eyes are very pretty." Beca said decisively as she played with a few strands. Chloe giggled and slowly reached out, petting Beca a bit too. "I really like you hair and eyes too Becs." The brunette giggled and hopped off of Brooke's lap.
"I think we're going to be vast friends Bec!" the redhead leaned down a bit and engulfed the tiny girl in a bear hug. Brooke was chuckling at the adorable sight. "What does that mean?" a confused and muffled voice asked. The older Beale girls just giggled and stroked Beca's hair. Making the little girl smile crookedly.
"Brooke! Someone's at the door!" Chloe, now nine, opened the door to reveal the now six year old Beca. "Becs! Hey! Come on in!" the brunette smiled at the redhead and her eyes twinkled when she heard the loud and boisterous stomps of the oldest Beale girl coming down the stairs.
"Chloe don't open the door unless you're sure of who is on the other side of it!" Brooke came into the hall with a panicked look on her face, her hair was a mess and her hazel eyes were darting every which way, in search of her little sister and whoever she let into the house.
When her eyes landed on the two girls she let out a sigh and walked to them. "don't scare me like that little bit, you're giving me a heart attack." She chuckled as she pulled her sister and Beca to her for a tight hug. "Well little ladies, my boyfriend is coming over so try to behave yeah?" Brooke winked at the two but her eyes grew worried when they landed on Beca.
"What's wrong Beckers? Turn your frown upside down hon, it's way prettier that way." Brooke crouched in front of the little brunette and ruffled her hair, making Beca blush and giggle a bit. The blonde smirked and got up. "I'll pour you some juice, that'll surely help eh?" Little Beca nodded enthusiastically while Chloe stood there in the background, lost as to why Beca reacted so strongly on the fact that Brooke had a boyfriend.
He was a nice enough guy, he always brought candy with him and he sometimes played Barbie with her so she could understand why Brooke wanted to hold hands with him. Beca on the other hand didn't even seem to like that he existed.
The bell rang and Brooke went to the door this time. Opening it she was met with her boyfriend Jamie Buggerson, something told Chloe that she shouldn't have told Beca his whole name.
He was a tall boy with black hair that was gelled back with way too much gell, green eyes and yeah okay a lot of acne but that was normal for a teenager. Plenty of roasting fuel for some people.
The boy went over to Chloe and Beca and crouched down. "Hey ladies, look at what I brought for you." He produced a decent bag of candies from behind his back and gave it to the little girls. "Thank you Jay!" Chloe hugged his leg and he chuckled while petting her hair softly. Brooke was looking at it with a big adoring smile and giggled when he went over to her and kissed her on the lips.
Beca almost growled at the disgusting sight and crossed her arms. This didn't go unnoticed by a certain redhead.
The four of them went into the living room with Jamie and Brooke on one couch and Chloe and Beca on the other. Beca was pouting and glaring straight ahead and Chloe grew worried for the little brunette. Sure Beca was grumpy a lot of times and very sarcastic too but she was never like this. She looked like someone was playing with a toy that she really wanted but her parents wouldn't get her.
"Becs? What's wrong?" Chloe asked when she saw Beca's glare shoot over to Jamie and Brooke when the blonde giggled at something that the raven haired boy had whispered in her ear.
Beca looked at Chloe for a moment and without looking away, addressed Brooke. "Hey Brooke?" the blonde immediately turned to the little brunette. "Yeah Becsie?" she was smiling in the background and Beca was clenching her jaw at how happy she sounded. "Can I go with Chloe to the tree house?" she asked the blonde and turned around to flash her an adorable smile.
Brooke grinned and reached out to gently rake her hand through the soft brunette hair. "Of course monkey, be careful though and don't be up there too long. It's almost seven so you two have a little less than two hours before Becs parents are coming to pick her up." Brooke told them as she kissed her little sister on her cheek and Beca on her forehead, making the brunette blush as red as a fire truck.
The two young girls went out to the garden and climbed up in the tree that mister Beale had made for them in the summer vacation. They plopped down in the poufs that they had lugged all the way up there (with the help of mister Beale of course) and settled down, Beca was still frowning and pouting but now with a very heavy blush on her pretty little cheeks.
"Are you going to tell me what's wrong?" Chloe asked as she scooted closer to Beca and put an arm around her. The brunette girl sat there in silence and eventually opened her mouth. "I don't like him." She said in deviance. Chloe was a bit taken aback by such a bold statement and looked at Beca curiously. "But why? He always brings candy!" Chloe threw her arms out as she mentioned her favorite kind of food. "Yeah" Beca was still grumpy as ever when Chloe's eyes lit up.
"You're jealous aren't you?" Beca grumbled again and Chloe's smirk widened "Oh my gosh you are!" the nine year old threw a gummy bear at her friend and Beca scowled. "I just don't like how he's touching her the whole time and always whispering in her ear. I mean nobody could possibly like that. It's very annoying." The brunette crossed her arms and aggressively chewed on a gummy worm.
Chloe just hummed but felt a strange feeling in her stomach. It wasn't nice at all and it kind of stung. She chose to ignore it and she shook her head, motioning for Beca to stand up. "Come on Becs it's almost time for you to be picked up."
"Dudes! Please slow down! I don't have enough stamina for this!" Beca was huffing as she followed Brooke and Chloe up the hill for a picnic. The eleven year old was lugging the basket with food and promptly fell down on the spread blanket when she reached the Beale girls. The blonde and redhead giggled at the ridiculous sight and helped the dramatic brunette up on her ass.
"You're so extra Becs." Brooke ruffled her hair and planted a kiss on top of her head, making the brunette blush and Chloe grumble. The fourteen year old had been liking the small brunette since she knew what feelings meant. Which, whatup twelve year old Chloe.
Chloe knew of Beca's crush on her older sister and well, she couldn't blame her really, Brooke was quite the girl. It ran in the Beale genes. Trust.
The twenty year old blonde had really filled out over the years and boys and girls were falling over each other to even get a chance to talk to the older Beale. Jamie hadn't stuck around long, I mean, not that anyone let him after he cheated on Brooke with her then best friend.
It was the day after Brooke and Jamie had broken up that Beca had confessed to Chloe that she was in love with her older sister. Yeah, literally in love. The kind where they claim 'I'm going to marry her someday'. It broke Chloe's heart because she had just discovered her feelings for the small brunette. She was growing in a wonderful girl and Chloe would know it. She didn't leave Beca alone for too long, and Beca always came back to the Beale resident, even when she didn't need to be sit on anymore.
Still, sounds better in my head.
And even though it was a big confession for a nine year old. It was genuine. Beca knew what she was talking about, always. She had to grow up fast due to the shit she experienced at home. Which the Beales only knew about because Beca, the Beca Mitchell, broke down one day. Apparently her mother had filed a divorce and she had fought hard but didn't get to have Beca with her. Regina Mitchell is everything to the small brunette and her not getting to see her mom everyday anymore had broken her strong and mighty façade. Her heart.
"Well, only for you miss Beale." The eleven year old winked at the blonde which made her giggle. Chloe looked on with wide eyes, seeing an eleven year old flirt with someone who's nine years older than her was kinda strange. But Chloe never judged. Just as long as Beca was happy.
She faked a giggle and quickly went over to the picnic basket, fishing out some sandwiches and giving each girl their own.
After eating Beca stood up and collected the trash. "I'll be right back, just gonna throw this away." She stood up and began her track to the big dumpsters at the beginning of the park.
"You should tell her."
The voice of Chloe's sister broke her out of my adoring stare towards the brunette and her eyes went wide as Brooke was looking at the redhead with a knowing look. "I- I don't kn- know what you're talking a- about Brooke." Chloe quickly looked away and tried in vain not to blush.
"Oh you know darn well what I'm talking about. I also know about her little crush. You guys aren't exactly silent up in that 'ol tree house." She was casually picking at her nails, as if she didn't just reveal big secrets. Meanwhile Chloe was picking at the grass, trying to not let it get to her that her sister knew everything all along.
Brooke was smirking at Chloe but it quickly softened when she saw the terrified look on her sisters face. "Look chlo bear. I know it's much more than that and I know that you feel much more for her. And I really want you both to have that. I mean I'm obviously too old for little Beckers and you are just too chicken shit to say something." The blonde scoffed as the fourteen year old threw some ripped out grass at her sister's head.
"But I've been around long enough to see what it looks like when people like-like each other." The blonde put an encouraging hand on her little sister's shoulder. "So don't be such a little shy fart and go get the girl." Hazel eyes twinkled as she looked proudly at her younger sister, kissing her forehead when the redhead's blue eyes became determent. Chloe nodded and stood up, preparing to go to Beca and pour her heart out.
"Thanks Brookey." Chloe's eyes sparkled as she looked gratefully at her older sister. All Brooke did was wink and smirk. Pride glowing in her eyes as they followed her little sister down the hill.
Okay Chloe, you can do this, you're a Beale. We don't do shy. Come on!
Chloe spotted the brunette hauling the last of the trash bags into the dumpster, wiping her brow as she blew out a big breath.
The redhead went over to the brunette and Beca just looked up, causing their eyes to clash and Chloe to be overcome by dread. Oh come on! Not now!
Beca looked at her curiously and went over to the redhead, who was standing there, nailed to the ground.
Chloe still didn't say anything even when Beca was close enough. "Chlo? Hey Chlo what's up?" the eleven year old was waving her hand in front of the redheads face and trying everything to get the redhead to react somehow.
The redhead snapped out of it and looked bewildered at Beca, who was, way more closer now holy crap!
"I- I like you!" Oh great going there Beale, yes you deserve a prize for this. Jesus. I can hear Brooke laughing from all the way down here.
Beca looked taken aback by the sudden confession. "W- What?" the redhead sighed defeated and reached for Beca's hand, which she didn't pull back. "I- I have been liking you for two years now Beca, and I know you like my older sister better but. She's older and I mean we're from the same mum but you still always preferred her more. And-"
Chloe was cut off by a pair of lips, very clumsy and inexperienced ones but still, lips.
Beca's lips.
The fourteen year old quickly answered the kiss with one of her own as she pulled Beca a bit more closer to her, guiding the eleven year old in her first kiss. Ever.
They pulled back and looked at each other with small and shy, happy smiles. "I… assume you like me back?" Chloe asked Beca as a grin was growing on her lips. Beca smirked and nodded "You could say that indeed." And gripped onto the redheads waist, pulling her toward her for another kiss.
Ya'll okay so, uhm, heh. It's do-able? Hope you liked it tho, this is one of my longest. I think XD
