Hi guys! Thanks for following and reviewing! It means a lot. This is more of a filler chapter I guess, maybe, but I wanted to get something out there for you guys. BUT it has some bechloe! I hope you enjoy it.
I don't own PP1,2,3.
CHAPTER 14: Confession #1
Fat Amy, Aubrey, and Chloe look at the cute duo a couple of paces ahead of them. Some time on the hike back to the car, Beca hopped on Stacie's back and the pair has been giggling ever since. That was 20 minutes ago.
Aubrey skeptically looks at the two, wondering if this will complicate operation BECHLOE. "What can they be possibly be laughing about for 20 minutes?"
Fat Amy shrugs, "I don't know but I want whatever they took. Those two dingoes sound high as a purple balloon."
Aubrey rolls her eyes, "They couldn't possibly have taken anything. We have been with them THE entire time. Impossible."
Amy shrugs again, "I knew we should have cavity searched them. Or at least Beca."
Chloe, who was feeling more positive, shakes her head, "I think they are high from the jump. I mean it is a rush. Such a RUSH."
Fat Amy looks skeptical, "I don't see you giggling your devil hair off."
"Jumping affects everyone differently or not at all. Facing fear can have very unpredictable results," Aubrey adds in her matter-of-fact voice.
"Ehhhh, ehhhh, ehhhhhhh. Sure. I don't wanna rock the ship but does anyone else thinking that those two make a cute couple."
Chloe bites the inside of her lip. They do make a cute couple, she can admit that BUT it just didn't sit right. Beca and Jesse also looked cute but that didn't seem quite right either. He was the love struck, always supportive puppy that stood behind Beca, taking all her sarcasm and negativity with a cheesy grin. BUT they were soo boring…and safe. Sure, Chloe felt terrible for being the reason for the break up, but how it went down was completely unexpected and had blown up to cosmic proportions. How was she to predict that shit storm was going to happen? If she did, she wouldn't have provoked Beca. She would rather have lived with the regret of never trying to cross that line than be the cause of soo much pain.
And now, there is something going on or was going on or whatever is the mystery of Stacie and Beca. Hell, the new mystery that is Beca is interesting enough. It's been two years and it's like everything changed. Beca changed. Stacie changed. Everyone changed in some sort of way. As Chloe looks at the Bellas around her, she realizes everything has changed…but then again…nothing really changed. Here they were… Together like old times.
The change Chloe is really focused on is the new, changed, now a mystery Beca 'Bliss' Mitchell. Fortunately enough, Chloe loves a good mystery. Also fortunately enough, Chloe felt a surge of confidence after the jump, something that she hasn't felt in quite some time. She can feel that confidence she thought she lost in Costa Rica. It is back, permanently or momentarily, whichever it is, Chloe needed to take advantage of it. Like now.
Game on.

Giggling, Chloe runs up and slaps both Stacie and Beca's butts, one after the other. Both girls yelp and Beca jolts up higher Stacie' back. Stacie turns them around to see the redheaded culprit.
"Stace, I think it's my turn for a ride."
Beca smirks and replies before Stacie can, "I'll give you a ride." For good measure, she throws in a wink before giggling.
Chloe bites her lip and fights the blush threatening to come across her face, "I don't know Becs, I don't think you can handle all of this." She gestures to herself as she continues to walk beside the duo.
Beca bites the inside of her cheek as she casually looks Chloe up and down. "Challenge accepted…Stacie babe, put me down." Stacie crouches down and releases the DJ's legs. "Thanks for the ride."
Bliss looks at Chloe and turns around, "Hop on this Chlo." Chloe couldn't see the big smirk on the DJ's face.
Chloe lets out a little laugh and hops onto the small woman's back, the momentum causing Beca to take a few steps forward to gain her balance. Beca tilts her head to the side, "I said hop, not tackle."
Chloe lets out another laugh and wraps her arms around the DJ's neck. Wow this feels good. Like old times.
"Just don't drop me little mouse. Isn't that what your physically flawless German goddess called you? Remember that?"
Beca laughs, locking her arms around Chloe's legs before walking them down the path. "Oh god. I was a bumbling idiot. She was the second girl to have me question myself, to fluster me. When its one girl, you can ignore, call weird, and shut it out…. Two…you can't ignore but densely try to but words slip out like a huge mega dork…and then number three…time to figure your crap out."…Wow…that just flew right on out. Beca smiles, loving the feeling of being light…free. I need to jump off bridges more often.
Chloe's mouth slightly drops at Beca's confession. This is it. This is her chance for honest answers. "Who was the first woman?"
Bliss rolls her eyes, "Who do you think?"
"I-I don't know. I don't want to assume things… Stacie?"
The short brunette lets out a laugh…and keeps on laughing. It takes her a minute to compose herself as she can feel the redhead tense behind her back. She takes a deep breath not wanting any secrets or omission to weigh her down and ruin this new high she literally fell in to. She did also promise Chloe one honest answer. "Number 3. Wanna guess again, Red?"
Chloe swallows the nervous lump in her now extremely dry throat. This is it. She slowly turns her head and whispers in Beca's left ear, "Me?"
Before Beca can answer, she is interrupted by Fat Amy's yell.
"Hey Twiggies! You're supposed to be carrying me! It was my wish."
She stalks towards Stacie. Stacie's eyes widen and waves her arms in front of her, "NO way Fat Amy! No. Beca weighs nothing."
Fat Amy shakes her head, "Oh you'll be fine, I weigh nothing too..in space."
Beca laughs, pretending to get distracted by her friends' antics. She doesn't know why but her voice escaped her. The nonchalant carefree confidence escaped her momentarily. She felt her heart squeeze and air forcibly escape her lungs on the whisper of the question in her ear. It was a simple question. She was easily alluding to it but to physically and emotionally confirm it out loud…it got caught in her throat. Thankfully, Fat Amy saved her; the blonde just didn't know it.
Beca loudly whispers to Stacie, "Stace, run."
Stacie did not need to be told twice as she quickly turned and jogged down the path. Beca chuckles. On her back, Chloe sighs; disappointed her window is gone, again. I was soo close! The redhead takes a deep breath and doesn't let this bring down her post jump mood. There is still an hour of hiking left. That's plenty of time to get her answers. And besides…I've got her right where I want her… and Stacie-less. She gives the DJ's neck a little squeeze as she settles into the ride, a small smile settling on her face. She may not have this one answer, she's pretty sure it would have been a 'yes' but she is confident she will get the DJ talking again within the hour. There is nowhere for her to go.
Nowhere to run.
Nowhere to jump.
