"Beca, stop eating those," Chloe scolded slipping into her shoes and entering the kitchen.
Jumping, Beca dropped the cookie and turned, "But they're freshly baked cookies and still warm."
"They're for Stacie."
Putting on an innocent expression Beca shoved her hands in her pockets, "So is the wine we're giving her, but that was too much of a hassle to open. Those," She motioned towards the table, "You left laying around."
"They weren't laying around and you know it," Approaching the table Chloe picked up the Tupperware container, "I knew I should've put them out of the reach of small children."
Picking up the half eaten cookie Beca popped it in her mouth, "Your loss."
"Babe, half these cookies are gone," It was so hard to be upset, it really was, but those were Stacie's favorite cookies and Chloe didn't have time to bake more.
"Wait," The word came out all jumbled as Beca questioned with a mouthful. Swallowing, she pointed at her wife, "You can't put this all on me, oh no. When I got home from work you were eating them too!"
Chloe quickly averted her eyes to the container, trying to change the subject, "I think it's going to snow tonight."
"You're evading the question," Beca replied incredulously.
"Am not..."
"Are too…"
Groaning the redhead dropped the container and picked up a cookie. Taking a bite she knew Beca was right, but it still left one major question, "Now what do we take to Stacie's house warming party?"
Three weeks ago Stacie moved into a new apartment, not far from them or her job. She was a kindergarten teacher at Chloe's school and had been crashing at their place since the end of September.
"There's a gourmet market a couple blocks away," It was the first thing that came to mind and a place Beca loved visiting, "They have loads of fancy cheeses and food."
"Are they open?"
"Strangely they're open 24/7," One night Beca was lacking an ingredient for dinner she was making and Barzini's, a place she'd walked by every day, had it. Even though it was late the place was open, "If you ever need rare olives at two in the morning, it's your place. They could probably put a gift basket or something together."
Nodding, Chloe liked that idea, "That'll work, they can pair things with the wine for us."
"There's a whole aisle dedicated to kitchen things that I don't know the name of or how to use, but it's awesome. Let's get her some stuff from there too," Beca was on a roll. She loved that place, she loved any type of supermarket really. Grocery shopping was one of her favorite things to do, "I can't wait to go."
Laughing at the tiny ball of energy Chloe needed to get serious, "No getting out of control, we need focus while we're in there. This is a quick trip."
"I'll be good I promise."
"I'm holding you accountable."
Grinning the brunette picked up a couple cookies, shoving one in her mouth she spoke between bites, "These cookies are fucking awesome by the way."
"Thanks. Why don't you save some for later…" Taking the uneaten cookie from her wife's hand, Chloe placed it back in the container and sealed the lid. Beca gloomily watched the whole action and she equated it to taking away a child's toy. Lightly laughing she patted Beca's cheek, "Please go do whatever you need to do to get ready so we can leave."
"Ok…" Slumping her shoulders Beca turned towards the living room, but felt a hand grab her arm.
"Hey," Maneuvering around, Chloe was met with questioning eyes. Wrapping her arms around Beca's neck she gave a quick kiss, "Can you bring me my jewelry I left it next to the sink?"
Backing up to the table Beca lifted Chloe, setting her on the edge. Placing open mouthed kisses down the redhead's neck she heard a sharp intake of air and the felt grip on her shoulders tighten. Grinning against the skin she spoke in a low tone, "What do I get in return?"
"I made you cookies."
"No," Pulling back Beca smirked, "You made Stacie cookies, I just ate them." Continuing her journey she sucked on Chloe's pulse point and inched her fingertips up jean clad thighs.
Tilting her head for more access, Chloe was slowly getting turned on. Beca was doing the bare minimum and it was driving her crazy, "God…you're making it extremely hard to concentrate right now."
Beca knows she should stop but Chloe wasn't exactly pushing her away, in fact legs just wrapped around her waist, pulling her in closer. Shifting their position she attached their lips in a slow kiss that was too perfect to stop. As fingers played with the hairs on her neck and things started intensifying she knew they were going to be late. But fucking hell she could careless right now, she loved where this was going.
Breaking away Chloe opened her eyes and took a couple calming breaths, "You're entirely to good at that, but we'll never get anywhere if we keep going…"
"Oh we were getting somewhere alright."
"We're not having sex on the table, we eat here," Chloe bit back laughter realizing she was halfway laying down already and it would be so easy to continue. How Beca gets her into these situations unknowingly is a mystery.
Arching an eyebrow Beca smirked, "And your point?"
That was well played, Chloe had walked right into that one, "Touché."
Collapsing forward, Beca buried her face in Chloe's shoulder, "I didn't hear any complaints when we did it on the counter a few weeks ago."
It was the day Stacie left for her new apartment, they'd just finished lunch and were cleaning up when Chloe somehow ended up on the counter. Then before she knew it their clothes were flying off, hands were everywhere and sloppy, fast and frantic kisses were given. The only excuse she had was that while Stacie was living with them, they constantly had to pick and choose when and where they had sex. While Beca fully agreed, she also claimed it was because they were newlyweds and newly married people did stuff like have sex on the counter just for the hell of it.
"I…yeah I got nothing," Pushing the brunette aside Chloe got off the table. "That was a memorable experience."
"It was more than memorable," Beca replied reminiscing about that event. "It's ingrained in my brain, I still have flashbacks at highly inappropriate times."
There was something was so hot about that incident, Chloe thought, "We did release a lot of built up sexual tension."
"I love Stacie, she's my best friend, but those two months she lived with us was torture on our sex life," Beca added.
Although sneaking around was fun, from time to time Stacie had caught them in a few compromising positions. Chloe always said it was funny how Stacie picked the most inopportune times to knock on their bedroom door, enter and sit on the end of the bed acting like it was no big deal they'd just had sex. Even though it was just Stacie, the queen of the no shame game and self proclaimed hunter of single dads, Beca still found it awkward chatting about dinner plans with just a sheet covering them.
Dragging her wife out of the kitchen Chloe made a beeline for the stairs, "Baby please go get ready."
"Cockblocked by my own wife," Pounding her feet up the stairs dramatically Beca shouted for emphasis, "That's a first."
Laughing Chloe picked up the remote and plopped down on the couch, "Yeah, yeah I'm a horrible person."
"No, you're a horribly sexy person," Stopping Beca jumped down the steps and walked over to the couch. Leaning over the back she gave a kiss, "I love you though."
"I love you too," Chloe laughed hard as her wife's expression instantly changed from humorous to questioning, "What?"
Standing up the brunette was silent for a few seconds, "Can I wear my wedding ring tonight? I forgot it this morning, I was in a hurry."
That was an odd question, Beca never asked permission to wear it before. Chloe never made a big deal if it wasn't worn, lately though Beca had been wearing it all the time. Then a light went off, only a handful of people knew they were married and they were trying to keep it under wraps until April. The ones that did know thought it was for insurance purposes, but that was only partly true they were actually tired of waiting. Three weeks later, they were married overlooking a vineyard in California the day after Thanksgiving.
Seeing the pleading face Chloe nodded, "You'll be fine it's just Stacie and a few teachers from work, they aren't coming to the wedding."
"You sure?"
"Positive…" Chloe felt bad not inviting anyone she worked with, but they decided to keep things small for close family and friends only. "They won't ask any questions, all they know is we're engaged, our secrets safe."
"If you say so..."
Thirty minutes later Beca silently made her way downstairs carrying a bag of multicolored origami hearts. Setting down her shoes she crept around the living room and started spreading them over the floor. She'd been working on them for weeks in hopes of surprising Chloe with something special, it was her way of showing just how happy she was that they were married.
Beca thought it would be fun to propose again and she wasn't just going to do it once, she going to do it twenty times. She didn't want anything to take away from the original proposal, she'd spent weeks planning and preparing for that night, and it had been so special and perfect. Instead these needed to be fun and lighthearted, something they could both look back on and laugh.
The first one was going to be simple and a way to explain all the rules. Chloe loved this type of stuff and she loved being the reason behind the surprised, overly happy, and loving looks.
Returning to the stairs, Beca slipped on her shoes and went to the middle of the room, "Chlo, you ready to go?"
"Be there in a sec," Packing up the wine bottles Chloe switched off the light and picked up her purse. Exiting the kitchen she stopped midstride, there was something all over the floor. Bending down she instantly knew what it was, Beca's origami stuff. Over the years she'd accumulated so many of these things and she'd kept every single one of them.
Chloe's eyes trailed along the floor until they landed on the smiling brunette and it made her heart rate quicken, "Beca, what's going on?"
"Can you come here," Beca reassuringly waved the redhead over, "This will only take a couple minutes."
The closer Chloe walked the number of origami hearts increased, "Did you make all these?"
"Yeah I did," Taking the wine from Chloe, Beca set it on the coffee table. This go around she wasn't nervous, "There's a few hundred here, it took me forever."
Whatever Chloe was going to say next she forgot as she watched Beca take her hands and get down on one knee, this couldn't be a proposal. Focusing back on the present situation she shot a playful, questioning glare, which earned a chuckle.
"I know how crazy this may seem, but when I asked you to marry me last year I wasn't down on one knee." Smiling Beca saw the same cute and confused look she fell in love with. Chloe hadn't put the pieces together, "I also asked if you wanted me to get down on one knee…"
Squeezing their hands Chloe cut in, "And at the time I was only able to shake my head no."
"I know, I remember everything about that night."
"Me too, it was perfect, you were perfect…that's why I don't understand what you're doing."
"Just know this will never take away from that night. This is something fun that I came up with, a way for you to have all those cliché proposal moments everyone talks about and you gush about in movies."
Nodding Chloe bit her lip.
Beca let go of Chloe's hand and pulled out the engagement and wedding rings from her jacket, "For this one I'm doing it the old fashioned way. That way when people ask, you can tell them that I did get down on one knee in the middle of the living room, surrounded by multicolored paper hearts."
"Baby, you don't need to do this," The redhead's voice was wavering, this was so sweet and unexpected she honestly didn't know what to say.
"I want to, it's a traditional thing to do," Pausing Beca contemplated her next sentence she never told anyone about this conversation. She'd been so nervous talking with Chloe's dad and then mom that she was almost sure Katherine Beale would've blabbed about it by now. "Just like asking your parents because yeah, I did that, right after Christmas last year."
Chloe's face softened, "I had no idea, they've never said anything."
"I was slightly terrified that afternoon, but that's a whole other story," Lightly laughing Beca loved every second and every reaction she was getting. Chloe looked just as anxious now as she did back then, "Now one more thing before I ask…"
"Good because I'm ready to give an answer…"
"Where've I heard that before," Getting a light slap Beca playfully groaned, "That night you said if I asked twenty different ways your answer would always be the same." Waiting she saw the smile slowly increase on her wife's face, all the dots were finally connecting. "If you check the calendar there is exactly sixteen weeks until our second wedding in April. So, I want to test you, I'm going to ask you to marry me twenty different ways and see if I get the same answer each time."
Chloe's crying right now and it's all because Beca hit her with something so creative and romantic. No one's ever going to believe this, even her own mother won't know what to say when she finds out. Part of her thinks Beca does it because no one will buy that she's a humongous softy and the other part knows that it's just the way Beca is.
Wiping a few tears away Chloe tried to laugh, "You've missed four weeks already."
"That's because making three hundred origami hearts takes time," Beca felt the blush creep up her cheeks, she had to hide making them for weeks. "I drastically underestimated how long that shit would take."
Laughing the redhead didn't have a comeback, she could barely make a crane the one time Beca tried to teach her. So, she appreciated the time and effort it tool to make all of these and she would keep every single one, "Sixteen is still a good number."
"Oh no, you're getting twenty," Beca was bound and determined to make twenty happen, she had a plan, "You're getting one now, then randomly throughout the night you'll get three more. After that, one per week and no, you won't get any warning."
"You suck."
"You love me…"
Shrugging Chloe sighed, "I do, I really do, no argument with you there."
Now that the rules were laid out, Beca knew it was time to get the show on the road. Holding up the rings she smiled, getting an equally bright and loving one in return, "I know this is corny but I'm doing all of this because I love you and I love being married to you… These past five weeks have been amazing and just when I think things can't get better it does, everyday it does. I'm so glad we eloped, it's quite possibly one of the best ideas you've ever conned me into."
"I didn't con you," Chloe said through tears.
"That's my story and I'm sticking to it."
"Whatever…"
Beca laughed, it really didn't take much convincing, "I'm so glad we get to spend our lives together…"
"Me too," Even though the redhead knows it was coming, she's pretty sure her hearts going to stop again when she hears the question.
Taking Chloe's left hand Beca slid the rings on, stopping at the knuckle, "So, now I'm going to ask, significantly less nervous than last time, because I'm confident in your answer…" Hearing a giggle she joined in, "Will you marry me?"
"Yes, always it's a yes," Watching the rings slide into place Chloe couldn't help thinking how perfect they looked on her hand. "I love you so much."
Before Beca was fully standing Chloe's lips were on hers, almost sending her of balance. She knew the redhead would be surprised but she never expected her to be so emotional, she definitely did something right.
Pulling back Beca let out a happy sigh, "I love you too. Thanks for saying yes again."
"As if I had a choice, there's no way I'm letting someone else snatch you up, " Pecking the brunette's lips Chloe knew she was incredibly lucky to have someone like this. There was only one Beca Mitchell and she wasn't letting her go, "You're crazy, I can't believe you're doing this."
"Me either," Beca playfully retorted, "I'm just glad you didn't say some crazy number like eighty."
Giving an over exaggerated puppy dog pout Chloe stuck out her bottom lip, "Are you saying you wouldn't do all this then if it was a high number?"
"Damn, I can't say no to a face like that, it's my greatest weakness," Shaking her head Beca's tone was full of astonishment, like it was a grand revelation she just figured out.
Giving a few more quick kisses Chloe replied, "You do know your badass points flew right out the window?"
"Yeah, yeah what else is new," Beca sighed picking up the wine bottles. Seeing the hearts scattered across the floor she knew she'd lose points all over again if she had to, "For you that's ok, I can live with it."
Grabbing her wife's hand, Chloe laced their fingers together. Brushing a finger over Beca's wedding band she smiled, "Come on Casanova we'll clean this up later. We need to hit up the grocery store before going to Stacie's."
"Ok…"
"Plus I'm anxious to see how my other three proposals are going to go play out."
Beca swallowed the lump in her throat, she hadn't thought that far ahead, "Just know this is as elaborate as it's gets, I plan on going the simple and funny route from here on out."
"I can't wait."
"By the way, what size ring pop do you wear and what's your favorite flavor?"
Shoving the brunette out the door Chloe laughed, "You're getting fancy Mitchell…"
"Nothing but the best for my wife."
"In that case blue raspberry."
"Interesting."
"Why?"
"I figured you a watermelon type of girl."
After a quick stop by the gourmet grocery store, where Beca was surprisingly on her best behavior, they'd made it to Stacie's only fifteen minutes late. The whole time Beca was bouncing down the aisles, tossing random things into the basket, Chloe couldn't focus on anything other then what happened earlier, it was definitely unexpected
Nothing could ever take away from the original proposal, it was the best night of Chloe's life. Beca had put so much thought and effort into making it perfect that it was irreplaceable. What ever was going to happen from here on out she knew it was going to be classic Beca, a variety of goofy, cute and hilarious moments that she would love.
Making their way into the apartment Chloe saw the living room filled with teachers from school and a few others she didn't know. The two-bedroom apartment looked great, Stacie had really done an amazing job, it looked completely different from the tour she and Beca got a couple weeks ago.
Greeting a few friends Chloe lead Beca to the kitchen in search of Stacie, "Sorry we didn't knock, the door was open."
"Hey," Stacie closed the refrigerator door and smiled at her friends, "No it's fine, I left it open. Thanks for coming."
"As if we'd miss it," Beca jumped in all excited, "Your place turned out nice Stace." Pointedly looking at the redhead, she smugly smiled, "See babe she didn't cover up my paint job."
"Nope, you actually did a really good job," Stacie said laughing at her best friend.
Chloe warned Stacie early on that Beca was a disaster at fixing things around the house, but was always more than willing to try. However, when Beca offered to help paint, Chloe instantly gave the thumbs up from behind the brunettes back. Apparently, it was the only thing her best friend could do without much complication or injury. The extra set of hands was a huge help and all the rooms turned out great.
Beca playfully glared at her wife, "See I'm good at household hold stuff, I didn't botch anything here."
"I'm sooooo proud of you," Exaggerating her words sarcastically the redhead jokingly rolled her eyes.
"Look around," Gesturing to the kitchen and living room walls Beca played along attempting to prove a point, "I didn't put a hole in any of the walls like I did at our house. Everything's intact."
"That's because I made Stacie hide all the nails and hammers."
Turning back to her best friend, Beca narrowed her eyes as Stacie laughed, "That's ok Chlo, I forgive you."
"Oh really?"
"Yeah, I got a nice conciliation prize, we went to the Home Depot to buy paint."
"Awwww, baby that's one of your favorite places," Planting a sloppy kiss to Beca's cheek Chloe giggled. Seeing the brunette be adamant she was good at fixing things was so adorable. Pointing a thumb at her wife, Chloe looked at Stacie, "You know sometimes, when I need to shop without distractions, I point her in the direction of the power tools. She's good for at least forty minutes with the nail guns."
Stacie was full on laughing by this point, taking a breath she looked at a not so amused Beca Mitchell, "Coincidently, she wandered away while we waited for them to mix paint and I found her near the table saws."
"It's almost like she knows how to use them. It's cute how excited she gets over power tools and drills."
Recoiling back Beca made a mock offended face, "Power saws and electric screwdrivers are badass mother fucking tools Chlo. Therefore I'm a badass mother fucker when I look at them."
As Stacie watched the two banter back and forth she noted the smiles plastered across their faces. Never in a million years did she think Beca Mitchell would've been the first person in their group to get engaged, let alone married, yet here they were. The couple had barely been married a month, but it really agreed with them. This was the happiest she'd ever seen them and she was glad her friends finally had everything they wanted.
"I know, I know and you don't take no shit off of nobody," Chloe glanced around hearing laughter from Stacie. Sometimes she forgets there are more than two of them in the room.
"Damn right," Beca stated with purpose while loosening her scarf. Giving Stacie a triumphant smile she shrugged, "See my wife totally gets me, she knows how badass I am."
Stacie clapped her hands excitedly, they were so cute together that she just couldn't deal with it sometimes. "I love Bechloe, but I especially love newlywed Bechloe!"
"What did I miss this time ladies," Jessica's voice rang out interrupting the conversation and surprising everyone. "You know I love cute Beca and Chloe moments."
Walking over Stacie gave Jessica a quick hug, then took a bag from the outstretched hand, "You made it, I was beginning to worry."
Jessica smiled setting her purse and bags down, "The plane was late, I tried my best to get here before these two arrived."
"What're you doing here Jess," Chloe surprisingly asked as she gave a hug, "Not that I'm not happy to see you."
"I texted Stacie New Years Eve. I had a seven hour layover on my way back from visiting my family for the holidays. I suggested all of us should get together for a couple hours. Then she told me she was having this little get together," Looking around at surprised faces Jessica grinned, "So, I changed my plane and decided to stay the weekend, I leave Sunday night."
"Awesome," Holding out her left hand Beca gave Jessica a high five. Before she could put it down Jessica was yanking her closer, forcing her to step forward.
Examining the ring, Jessica looked up with questioning eyes, "This is new?"
"What is?" Shifting her eyes around nervously Beca started to panic. Stacie was mouthing out, I promise I never said anything, and she could only imagine the look on Chloe's face.
"Since when do you wear rings?" Jessica thought this was an interesting turn of events because three months ago Beca swore up and down she'd never wear a ring.
"Since I'm kind of Chloe's property now," Beca added with an uneasy laugh. She was blindsided and never thought about hiding her hand. "And I don't have a choice anymore." That earned a slap to the back of her head.
Glancing back down Jessica really inspected the ring, the plain, platinum band was a little less then a quarter of an inch and had soft square edges. Wiggling it around she saw a faint tan line, indicating that Beca had been wearing it often, "This isn't the same one you showed before."
"What? Yes it is…"
"Beca this isn't an engagement ring, it looks like a wedding band."
Snatching her hand away Beca shoved it in her jacket pocket, she was grasping for words and no one was helping, "Ummm…nope?"
Jessica was suspicious, Beca and Chloe looked scared and Stacie had been silent the entire time, "You want to tell me what's going on?"
Beca felt Chloe slide up next to her and loop their arms together. She took this as a sign that it was ok to come clean, "It's a funny story, about a month ago, well thirty-four days to be exact…"
"That ring was originally meant for me, Beca said was too flashy for her, so we went and exchanged it and she's been wearing this one ever since," Chloe rushed out all at once. That was a bold face lie and even she didn't believe it, but it was the best she could come up with on short notice. Flashing an uneasy smile she continued, "This one's sleek and sexy."
"Okay," Dragging out the word Jessica thought everyone looked weird, like she knew something she wasn't supposed to know yet.
"Oh," Shoving the gift bag into Stacie's hands, Chloe tried to change the subject, "We picked you up a little something, figured you could use it tonight. There's also a couple bottles of wine in there."
"Thanks guys you didn't have to do that," Stacie tentatively spoke as Jessica turned to face her. Occupying herself with the bag she pulled out the wine, "Oh, it's from that winery in California we toured the afternoon before…" She instantly closed her mouth at the unintentional slipup. "Before we had that amazing dinner Friday night."
"Yes…" The two voices rang out in unison.
"Thanks…"
Chloe felt the uneasiness again, they needed to get out of the room to break up the tension. Otherwise someone was going to confirm what Jessica already suspected, "Stacie where can we put our coats?"
"In the guest room, first door on the left," Stacie replied moving around the kitchen again, "Want something to drink Jessica?"
Grabbing Beca's arm Chloe dragged her down the hall, reaching the room she shoved the brunette inside. Quietly shutting the door she flipped around, "Someone asks you one question and you start blabbing away like you're under interrogation?"
Rubbing her arm Beca sat on the bed, "Jesus, I'm sorry, I panicked. It's not like you helped much, miss she thought it was to flashy."
"Well you did say that's the reason you didn't wear the other ring."
"Because I originally bought it for you, but couldn't choose between it and the one I ended up giving you."
Taking her jacket off Chloe tossed it on the bed and sighed, "I'm sorry, I should've jumped to your rescue sooner."
"It's ok, we've never had to deal with this," This was the first time they were faced with close friends asking really specific questions. Beca honestly thought it would be easy to cover it up, "It's not like we've been hiding it everyday."
"You're right, I've gotten so used to being married and calling you my wife that I forget we have a secret to keep," The redhead never imagined it would be this hard, thank goodness none of the teacher here tonight knew or it would be even more difficult.
Flopping back onto the bed Beca held her hand out, "I'm starting to get used to wearing this, somehow I feel more connected to you when I have it on."
Chloe's heart melted, reaching out she linked their fingers, pulling Beca back up, "I love seeing you wear it, I wasn't kidding when I said it was sexy."
"You know what else is sexy?"
"What?"
"Hearing you say yes…"
Arching an eyebrow Chloe didn't understand what that meant.
Playfully rolling her eyes, Beca grinned, "Can I hear you say it?"
"Yes…"
"See I love that sound," Smirking Beca could tell the redhead was totally clueless about where her train of thought was going. The three remaining proposals were going to be fun. "Do you love me?"
Chloe nodded, "Yes…"
"Good because I love you…" Pausing Beca pulled Chloe into her lap. Locking eyes she put on a serious face, nearly laughing at the stare she was getting back, "So if I love you and you love me, then we should probably get married again, how about it?"
Chloe couldn't help but laugh, she was caught off guard, she'd totally forgotten about Beca's proposal challenge. Calming down she gave a firm answer, "Yes will always be my answer."
"You had me worried," Beca deadpanned clutching her chest.
Grabbing Beca's face Chloe pecked her wife's lips a few times, "Smooth Mitchell, real smooth, definitely wasn't expecting that."
Giving a fist pump the brunette gave a triumphant cheer, "Two down."
"Come on, we need to be social," Standing Chloe headed for the door. Before the handle could be turned she was lightly pinned to the door as an arm snaked around her waist and fingers slipped under her shirt.
"I'd much rather be at home in bed with you right now."
Chloe could feel lips brushing along her neck, "Mmmm, me too but we have to wait."
"But it's so hard to keep my hands off you, you're so unspeakably hot."
"Same," Chloe tossed back, as fingers dipped into her jeans. Biting her lip she fought not to roll her hips and add more friction, Beca was driving her crazy.
Feeling the redhead shutter Beca knew she was winning, they were two minutes away getting it on in Stacie's new apartment. She just needed to press a little further.
Resting her head on the door Chloe felt fingers dipping dangerously lower with every passing second. Stopping the wandering hand she ducked under Beca's outstretched arm and took a steadying breath, "Unfortunately as much as I want this right now we still have to wait. I'll make it up to you tonight."
"Ok," Beca dejectedly stated giving a quick kiss before walking out the door. She was barely out the door when she felt a hard slap that resonated down the hall, "Ouch, what the hell was that for?"
"I just can't let a hot piece of ass walk by without touching it. Especially when it's my hot wife's ass. Damn so fine…"
Just then Jessica's head shot around the corner, Chloe wasn't sure but judging by the look Jessica heard every word of that comment. She needed to talk to Stacie and initiate damage control, hopefully everything would blow over and their secret would be safe.
A couple hours later the party was winding down and half the guest remained. Chloe spent the majority of the night moving from teacher to teacher chatting about anything and everything. While Beca split her time between Chloe and Jessica since the other girl knew almost nobody at the party.
Wandering into the kitchen for a refill Chloe stopped to chat with Jessica, she was anxious for some conversation other than school gossip.
"So, how's the wedding planning going," Jessica questioned sipping from her wine glass.
"Pretty great all the major things are done," Chloe stated happily, "Beca's been a huge help."
"That's surprising," Jessica added with a little laugh.
That was the reaction Chloe got the most and she loved seeing the look on peoples faces when she gushed about how into everything Beca was, "Who would've thought the little alt girl with tattoos would be so involved right?"
Shaking her head in amusement Jessica let out a little laugh, "I figured she'd be indifferent about it, going along with whatever decision you made."
"Nope," Looking around the room for the girl in question Chloe couldn't find her. Focusing back on Jessica she put on a warm smile, "You're going to be surprised, there's aspects to the wedding that you'll be able to tell are all her."
Beca being totally involved in everything was great, but that was only part of the reason why the wedding planning was going so easy. Now they were under considerably less pressure to make things perfect, because California had utterly been perfect. Before eloping little things kept stacking up and the stress unintentionally put on them by their families was hindering them enjoying this time together. That all changed the day they got married, now there was no pressure and the planning turned into something really fun and exciting.
Just last week they had an amazing time finding the perfect wedding cake. They'd made a day out of it, arranging taste tests with various bakeries around the city. Eating fifteen different cakes together had been so much fun and in the end they found one the both liked. That's how the planning had been since they got married and Chloe knew by the end of April they'd be able to just enjoy themselves with no pressure.
"Well I can't wait for this shindig," Jessica stated leaning against the sink. She was excited, everyone was excited, it's all the Bellas could talk about since the invitations went out last summer, "I remember Beca saying she was going to live the single life forever. I can't wait to hear her say I do. I won't believe it until I hear it."
If only Jessica knew what Chloe did, Beca didn't hesitate one bit saying those words, "It's funny how things change right?"
Chloe smiled at Beca as she reentered the living room holding a few sheets of paper. Before sitting the brunette gave Chloe a mock salute then plopped down on the vacated couch and pulled out her phone.
After a few minutes of talking, Chloe noticed movement from the couch. A piece of paper was now inconspicuously held in the brunette's hands as she messed around on her phone.
Squinting over Jessica's shoulder she tried to listen to her friends chatter while reading the message.
I bet you're wondering why I'm holding this? Stay tuned…
Glancing away then back, Chloe almost laughed, the paper was gone.
"So, I've heard a lot about this infamous engagement photo from Stacie, can I see it?"
Chloe's eyes snapped back to Jessica's, the blonde was fishing for information again. From their interactions earlier in the night all the signs were pointing towards Jessica being onto their game.
"Sure," Pulling out her phone the redhead scrolled through until she found the picture. Handing it over she laughed remembering how the picture came about and her mom's reaction to it, "This is our favorite, she was so unsuspecting when I jumped on her back. We had it blown up, now it's hangs in our living room."
Glancing back over to the couch Chloe smirked, Beca was holding another message.
Remember our third date? You should, you planned it, well except for the last part…. Get your mind out of the gutter, that's not what I'm talking about.
After explaining another picture Chloe's eyes ventured away and was met with a new message.
Give up yet?
Chloe knew Beca had her right where she wanted, she was preoccupied and unable to respond, because if she did she'd have to explain to Jessica what was going on.
Of course Chloe remembered that date, she remembers all their dates. It was unique, something neither had done, they played laser tag and she had totally kicked Beca's ass. Afterwards they went to dinner and on the way home the brunette dragged her through this tiny park. A snow cone stand was set up and probably the entire reason Beca suggested they stay and watch the sunset. She still remembers the flavors they had, half grape, half lemonade for her and for Beca, orange. That date was also the first time they made out in public, like really made out, to this day she's still surprised because Beca isn't much for PDA.
There were three different flavors that night…Three, that's a nice number isn't it?
Chloe could see the smirk on Beca who purposely played on her phone, eyes never moving from the device.
Chloe let out a chuckle, which earned an odd stare from Jessica who'd been explaining the finer points of a concert she'd been to, "I'm sorry, what were you saying?"
As Jessica moved to the refrigerator, Chloe solved Beca's little brainteaser. The number three, as in their third date, three flavors and coincidently the three laser tag games they played. Beca was getting ready to propose again for the third time.
Looking around the refrigerator door Chloe saw another message and this time Beca was watching her.
Now that you know what I'm getting at, I might as well ask. Chloe will you…
When their eyes locked Chloe could see her wife shaking with laughter. She didn't know what could be so funny until the paper flipped around revealing the rest of the question. It was ridiculous and she should've expected it, especially with the full on laugh she could hear coming from the living room.
Chloe will you get me a snow cone?
Just as soon as that paper appeared it was gone and was replaced with a more serious one and it caused a loving smile to spread across Chloe's face.
Just kidding, Chloe will you marry me again? One time just isn't enough.
"I'll be right back Jessica, Beca needs a refill," Biting her lip the redhead grabbed a wine bottle and quickly moved past Jessica. Beca was being entirely too cute right now, she could literally scream.
Beca watched Chloe make her way towards her wearing a bright smile. This multiple proposal thing was actually pretty fun she thought. When the redhead bent to pour her more wine she caught a glimpse of Jessica who was obviously reading the note she was holding.
Quickly folding the paper the brunette set it aside and placed her hand on Chloe's, stopping all movement "Do you have an answer? I'm waiting in suspense."
"I do…" Chloe had to admit, that proposal was creative and entertaining and she loved every second of it.
"That's not the answer I'm looking for," Winking Beca continued, "Although I can't wait to hear it again."
Leaning in Chloe kissed the brunette, barely pulling back she whispered, "What you're doing is really romantic, I love it and I love you… My answer will always be yes."
"You promise…"
"Have I ever broken a promise?"
Tilting her head Beca thought for a few seconds, "Not that I can recall. I think I need to be more careful, Jessica read my last message and now she's talking to Stacie."
"I'll smooth things over, I've already told Stacie to make up whatever lie she needs in order to keep our secret," Pecking Beca's lips a final time Chloe started for the kitchen. Stopping she turned around and grabbed the wine bottle, backing away she whispered, "Be less conspicuous next time."
"I thought I was…"
"Their acting weird, particularly Beca" Jessica firmly stated rolling her wine glass around in her hands. She'd been intently watching the couple interact for a few minutes, "What's going on with them?"
"Nothing," Cringing Stacie knew that didn't sound convincing at all. She would admit, they were acting more lovey dovey than usual tonight.
It was sweet the way the two were acting really and after living with them Stacie got used the different sides to her friends relationship. She got to see firsthand how it worked and functioned on a daily basis. Beca was a total sap, more so than Stacie ever realized, and was hugely loving and affectionate towards Chloe. While she already knew Chloe was all those things, there was something different about the way it was directed towards Beca, it was almost softer or more gentle. Although they still had their funny, crazy and off the wall moments, that left her hysterically laughing, and on occasion, a rare disagreement, she really saw how much those two meant to each other.
Turning to face Stacie, Jessica leaned against the counter, "You know something and you're not telling me."
"Am not…"
"You're a horrible liar Stacie," Jessica knew how to push her friend to get the answers she wanted, but this was going to be challenging. "I'm not going to play around, I'm just going to straight up ask… Are," Poking Stacie's arm she got the taller girls full attention, "They married? Because I think they are."
Holding up her hands Stacie shifted her eyes to the couple then back to Jessica. This lie had to be convincing, "No, I swear to god, no… You think they're acting strange because you've never seen them like this, especially Beca. I lived with them for over two months, trust me when I say they're not married and this is normal." She hated lying, that's why Beca and Chloe were going to owe her big time. After taking a sip of her drink she continued, "Beca's my best friend, she couldn't keep something like that from me. And do you really think Chloe could keep her mouth shut for five months about something that huge?"
"I guess you're right." Jessica replied shaking her head. She didn't want to mention the sign she read a few minutes ago or comments she'd heard throughout the night, she'd save those tactics for later.
They both turned just in time to see Chloe give Beca a kiss then pick up the wine bottle and start back to the kitchen.
"So do you believe me when I say they're not married?" Stacie saw Chloe wearing a smug smile, it definitely wasn't helping her cause right now.
"Yes."
A million things were running through Jessica's head and she wasn't convinced at all by that little speech. Stacie had specifically mentioned five months and if she did the math right counting back from the date in April, that would put something major happening the end of November. And where were her favorite couple at that time? In California spending Thanksgiving touring the wine country with Aubrey and Stacie, the best friends. Then there was these so called "engagement photos" she purposely asked to see. They were taken in and around this vineyard on their vacation because it was as Chloe puts it, too beautiful to pass up.
Yeah everything was skewed, stories varied from person to person, basically the whole scenario wasn't adding up. The only conclusion Jessica could come up with was that they were married and they were hiding it.
Jessica didn't know why they were hiding it, but it didn't matter, it was genius and so totally Beca and Chloe. It made sense, the two hid their feelings for years, why not hide that they were married for a few months. Maybe it was their way of easing into marriage without the prying eyes and questions of everyone around them. She'd watch them the rest of the night and then question Stacie all about it later.
It was almost midnight and the party was winding down, in fact the only people who remained were Chloe and her fellow Bellas. She'd been watching her wife for the better part of two hours. It may not look like Beca had drank much but over the course of the whole night she had. The only good thing was she kept giving the brunette food and water, so Beca was only tipsy enough to be antisocial.
Feeling her phone vibrate Chloe removed it and held back a laugh at seeing Beca's name flash on the screen. Beca was sitting across the room in a large armchair with her feet propped in a chair that she obviously dragged from the kitchen. Chloe thought she looked cute avoiding all conversations by sitting away from the group, immersed in her phone.
Secret Wife [11:44PM]: I have vodka and 50 pizza rolls back at my place. Want do you say we ditch this jamboree?
Chloe [11:44PM]: Jamboree?
Secret Wife [11:45PM]: Party, event, festivity do I need to go on?
Chloe [11:47PM]: Pizza rolls sound tempting.
Secret Wife [11:48PM]: Will you make them for me? Better yet make more of those delicious fucking cookies!
Chloe [11:55PM]: What do I get in return?
Secret Wife [11:58PM]: What would you like (insert suggestive eyebrow raise here)?
Looking across the living room Chloe saw Beca giggling, giggling at her phone while she, Stacie and Jessica chatted away about some random TV show. There was absolutely no telling what the brunette was looking at.
Secret Wife [12:03AM]: You've been quiet, what are you thinking?
Chloe [12:04AM]: Well Mrs. Antisocial I've been talking to our friends unlike you… What are you doing?
Secret Wife [12:05AM]: Hey they know being antisocial is my thing, they don't care… Oh and I'm playing candy crush.
So that's why Beca was giggling, Chloe thought. It was cute how the brunette was jumping on that games bandwagon that ended months ago.
Chloe [12:07AM]: On a scale of 1 to 10 how concerned should I be that you're playing candy crush?
Secret Wife [12:08AM]: Probably a 4, I haven't gone full blown bat shit crazy yet. I still prefer my PlayStation but I got to make do when I'm bored.
Chloe [12:10AM]: I'm sorry you're bored baby.
Secret Wife [12:12AM]: That's ok, for the past 15 minutes I've been undressing you in my mind.
Chloe [12:13AM]: Huh, well in my mind we're already at home, in bed, doing the deed.
Secret Wife [12:14AM]: hahaha doing the deed! Love that you're keeping it classy Chlo…
Chloe knew were this was going, she could see the smile pulling on her wife's lips. Their eyes briefly met and she was instantly turned on by the look she received, Beca's dirty mind was working.
Chloe [12:15AM]: Watch it Mitchell, otherwise you won't get all this (sweeps hand suggestively along body) tonight…
Secret Wife [12:16AM]: But there are so many things I want to do to you and I know you want me to do them.
Secret Wife [12:17AM]: Can I tell you a secret?
Chloe [12:18AM]: Sure…
Secret Wife [12:20AM]: Under these clothes, I'm naked!
Chloe [12:21AM]: Oh my god, me too! And I'm pretty confidant, about all this.
Secret Wife [12:22AM]: You should be…
Letting out a laugh Chloe got everyone's attention. Smiling sheepishly she fidgeted in her chair and mumbled out, "Sorry."
"Will you and Beca please quit sexting," Stacie nonchalantly stated like it was something that happened every day. "Jessica and I can literally feel the sexual tension building."
"Yeah this whole setup reminds me of college," Jessica laughed as a blush crept up her friend's faces. She'd caught red handed, "Beca's not participating in the conversation because she's constantly texting Chloe."
"While Chloe's obviously trying to play off that whatever Beca's saying isn't turning her on," Stacie tossed in giving a knowing grin.
Shrugging Beca easily laughed at the situation, "I guess some things never change."
Secret Wife [12:25AM]: Hey do you want me to predict your future?
Chloe [12:28AM]: Does it involve us having sex? Because that's pretty much all I can think about right now.
Secret Wife [12:30AM]: You read minds now too?… We can talk about what's going to happen at home in a bit, but first I need you to help solve a riddle I can't figure out.
Chloe [12:31AM]: I'm ready, in more ways than one ;)
Secret Wife [12:35AM]: Me, you, Will and Mary all want to sit on the couch. If we arrive at the same time, what will the seating arrangement be?
This was definitely another marriage proposal, it was probably the oldest trick in the book and Chloe was more than willing to play along.
Chloe [12:38AM]: Only because I always want to sit next to you my answer is: Me, You, Mary, Will.
Secret Wife [12:40AM]: I like your style but no wrong answer…
Chloe [12:46AM]: How about: You, Will, Mary, Me…
Secret Wife [12:48AM]: Actually, I already have and I'm more than happy to do it again. I'm game if you are, how's April sound? Try again…
Chloe [12:51AM]: This one might work: Will, You, Mary, Me.
Secret Wife [12:52AM]: Correct, so what's your answer?
Chloe [12:55AM]: Beca are you really asking me to marry you over text message?
Secret Wife [12:56AM]: Hey I gotta cover all my bases, I got twenty proposals to get through. So what's your answer? Are you going to marry me or what?
The suspense had to be killing the brunette but Chloe decided to take her time with the answer and started talking with Jessica. She could feel Beca's eyes boring a hole into the side of her head.
Secret Wife [1:00AM]: ?
Chloe [1:01AM]: Yes is the only answer I will ever give you. I love you.
Secret Wife [1:02AM]: I love you too…don't I get a kiss? I've been pretty cute tonight.
Standing Chloe moved and sat down on Beca's lap. Grabbing her wife's jaw with one hand she quickly gave a kiss to one cheek, "I love you." Then moved to the other, "I love you." Finally, she firmly planted a kiss to Beca's lips and laughed, "I love you and yes you've been really cute and sexy tonight."
"You two need to quit it with all the fluff," Jessica laughed at their antics. It was funny, one second she was talking to Chloe and the next her friend was out of the chair heading across the room.
"Quit reading fanfics Jessica," Beca deadpanned.
Those two really were in their own little world, Jessica thought, "Stace are they always like this?"
"Yeah, it's the Bechloe factor, you get used to the cuteness overload," Stacie added walking back into the room.
Standing Chloe grabbed Beca's hands, helping her up, "You ready to go?"
"Whenever you are," Stretching Beca yawned. She really hated to leave but she worked all day and it was getting late. Seeing Chloe nod she gave a quick kiss, "I'll grab our stuff."
Chloe intently watched Beca wander down the hall until a hand waving in her face and a laughing Stacie and Jessica broke her concentration, "Sorry, I totally lost my train of thought, to much wine."
"I'm sure that's not the only reason," Stacie replied in a lighthearted knowing tone.
Throwing Chloe her jacket and scarf, Beca finished zipping hers up before speaking, "Come by the house tomorrow, we'll have lunch, do something in the afternoon and go out for dinner."
"Sounds like a plan," Jessica stated giving everyone a hug.
Stepping out the door Beca and Chloe started down the hall hand in hand.
Reaching the elevator Beca turned and gave a small wave, "Thanks for having us, great party."
"Bye guys…" Stacie replied shutting the door. As soon as she turned she knew she was in for it, Jessica's face said it all.
There was no way Stacie could lie anymore, Beca and Chloe hadn't really been slick with hiding things tonight. It was pretty comical actually, a lingering touch here or the way Chloe brushed Beca's wedding band as they held hands, needless to say they were far from inconspicuous. The whole ordeal reminded her of college, except this time they were hiding a marriage.
Crossing her arms Jessica watched Stacie, waiting for some type of explanation. All she got was a blank stare, "Are you really going to stand there and keep denying that they aren't married?"
"Yes…" Stacie replied unconvincingly. This was bad, really bad because after tonight it wouldn't take long for all the Bellas to know.
"Open that door and tell me what you see and hear," When Stacie made no attempt to move Jessica pushed past and gently opened the door. Sticking her head out into the hallway she started laughing and waved Stacie over.
The couple were making out next to the elevator doors as Beca blindly tried pushing the down button. When she wasn't successful she broke away, stepped forward backing Chloe against the wall and pressed the button. There was a brief inaudible exchange, which made Chloe laugh, and as the elevator dinged, signaling its arrival, they heard a not so soft, "If my wife wasn't so hot and distracting we'd be in a cab halfway home by now." As the elevator doors opened they watched Chloe flip around and push Beca inside with a single finger.
Closing the apartment door Jessica rounded on Stacie, who looked uneasy and uncomfortable. That was the concrete proof she's been looking for all night, "Now I'm going to ask again and keep in mind that I know the answer. Are they married?"
Falling onto the couch Stacie buried her face in her hands, contemplating how to continue and how much she should actually say. Looking between her fingers she saw a triumphant smile on Jessica's face, "Yes, they are… Look, I'll answer all your questions but first you have to assure me that this will never get back to them. They must never know, that you know, do you understand?"
"I understand."
"Promise me you'll act surprised when they tell everyone," Getting a nod Stacie had one stipulation, "If for some reason they ever find out you had prior knowledge I'll deny this conversation ever took place."
"I promise to never say anything or may my vocal cords be ripped out by wolves."
Sitting up Stacie smiled, the small ten-minute ceremony had been a surprise to everyone. It was unique and unconventional, yet still romantic and so totally them, "Good because it was a special day and I was glad to be a part of it."
"My first question is why?" Jessica could see that whatever happened in California must have been amazing and she couldn't wait to find out more.
"Go grab another bottle of wine," Laughing Stacie remembers asking Beca that very question minutes before the couple said their vows, "Well it started with Chloe wanting better insurance and it just evolved from there. Don't look at me like that, there's way more to this story."
As soon as the elevator doors closed Chloe had pinned Beca against the wall, kissing her with everything she had. She could have sworn she heard a door close, but was too preoccupied to care who saw or heard them. The whole night had been so hard to keep quiet and other than a few minor slipups, she was confident they did a good job at hiding their secret.
Chloe figured other than the few kisses she'd given Beca throughout the night, there wasn't anything suspicious about their behavior. While Beca had been the usual attentive fiancé or wife, depending on who they were talking to, that everyone knew and loved. In fact other than a few marriage propels thrown in, their night hadn't been any different from a normal night out.
Pulling back Chloe smoothed out the part of Beca's jacket she'd been clinging to, "I've wanted to do that all night."
"Line stealer," Beca teasingly accused the redhead who raised a questioning eyebrow. "I said the exact same thing while waiting for the elevator."
Chloe laughed, she never heard that, but apparently her subconscious did, "Yeah well your kisses are distracting and then you pressed your body against mine, I could only think about one thing."
"And what's that?" The low seductive whisper was fully intentional, Beca knew what Chloe was referring to. It had been on her mind nonstop since their earlier encounter in the kitchen at home.
"How much trouble we'd get in if we had sex in this elevator."
Pointing to a camera Beca saw Chloe's eyes shift, "I'm thinking it depends on who's watching. Someone might get a show they didn't want or…"
"One they might," Pecking her wife's lips Chloe wickedly grinned as she pretended to think about those options. When she saw a slightly disbelieving and scared expression she laughed, "I'm only joking."
"Sometimes I don't think you are," Beca tried to be serious but failed and her laughter filled the small space.
Stepping back Chloe shrugged as she readjusted her scarf, taking Beca's beanie she put it on just as the elevator doors opened. Backing out she put on her best seductive smile and used her index finger in a come hither motion. When Beca didn't budge but grinned like a maniac Chloe tried again, except this time using two fingers in an all too familiar and practiced motion.
The redhead could see a mixture of amusement and lust but for some reason Beca still refused to move, "What?"
Beca doubled over laughing as Chloe dropped her act altogether. She didn't know how but Chloe had managed to be totally clueless, insanely hot and highly entertaining all at the same time.
Chloe stomped her foot, her seduction game was an epic fail. Holding up her hands she pleaded, "What's so funny Beca?"
"Get back on the elevator," Beca managed to get out, trying to calm down.
"Why?"
"Because if you actually want to get off," Smirking the brunette saw the annoyed look and it made her laugh even more, "Pun totally intended by the way, we'll first need to go down."
"What does that mean," Crossing her arms Chloe watched Beca reach out, preventing the elevator doors from closing.
"It means turn around and you'll see."
Chloe didn't know where this was going but did as instructed. Turning she was greeted with an apartment door, not the glass exit door she expected. Looking up to the ceiling she groaned, "Fuck, we're still on the seventh floor."
"Are you going to get on the elevator now?"
"Fine," Whipping around the redhead gave an unamused glare as she stalked back on the elevator. Moving to a corner she got as far away from Beca as possible, refusing to make eye contact.
"Hey Chlo…"
"Yeah?" Not looking up Chloe kept her eyes trained on the floor refusing to break a smile, even though it was a losing battle.
Moving to stand in front of her wife Beca sobered up. Lifting the redhead's chin she inched closer and grinned, "Are you going to push the button or did you want me to? Because I know you love pushing buttons."
Reaching out Chloe smacked Beca then punched the button marked G, "There happy?" She couldn't take it anymore, her annoyed facade crumbled and she started laughing.
"You are so absentmindedly cute when you're all flustered like that," Beca breathed out, noses touching, lips ghosting her wife's.
"Yeah well making out in an elevator with you does things to me."
"I'll remember that for future reference."
Snaking her arms around the younger girls, Chloe connected their lips in a heated kiss that was rudely interrupted by the chiming of the elevator, indicating they'd reached the ground floor.
Exiting the building Chloe buttoned up her jacket, "Do you want to walk or get a cab?"
"We can walk, it's only twenty minutes," Grabbing Chloe's hand Beca laced their fingers together and started down the street, "Plus, some people still have Christmas lights up and with the snow everything looks amazing."
As they silently walked swinging their hands Beca realized how lucky she was to be here right now. Her life was perfect, Chloe was perfect, their friends were perfect, everything was perfect.
"What?"
"Nothing…" Looking to her right Beca brushed a finger along Chloe's wedding rings and gently smiled.
Lightly laughing Chloe pulled Beca closer, "Why are you looking at me with that goofy grin? Are you getting ready to propose again?"
"No."
"Good because four times is enough for one night?"
"Wow, way to steel my thunder…"
Chloe knew that twenty proposals was a lot and she couldn't wait to see what Beca had in store for the one's that remained.
"Oh my god," Beca's voice broke the comfortable silence and she abruptly stopped. She'd been playing through the night, analyzing all her conversations with Jessica and things didn't added up, "Jessica knows."
Chloe moved her head so fast to the left she almost got whiplash. The nervousness and fear she saw was alarming, "No, Stacie assured me Jessica doesn't have a clue, she covered for us. That reminds me, we owe her a nice dinner next week and I'm talking expensive nice."
"She knows, Jessica's smart," Dropping Chloe's hand Beca started pacing on the sidewalk, "Didn't you find some of her questions weird? A little too probing, a little too specific?"
"You're right some of our conversations were strange…" Thinking back over the night everything came crashing down and Chloe's face dropped. "Holy shit you're right. Baby what are we going to do?"
Stopping in front of the redhead, Beca gave a tight smile, "Nothing, we just need to keep acting normal, keep hiding it. I know her, she won't say anything unless we bring it up."
"I get it, she won't know that we know that she knows," Chloe liked where this was going.
Grinning Beca nodded, "We can't say anything, what if we say something and she doesn't know, then she'll know and the others will know too."
"I can do that," Chloe stated excitedly bouncing on the balls of her feet, "This is awesome. It's just like that episode of Friends where everyone finds out about Monica and Chandler."
"You are so right!" Grabbing a hand Beca started dragging her wife down the street.
Chloe had no idea what was going on but the look of determination on Beca's face was hysterical, "What are you in a rush for?"
"We're going home to watch that episode of Friends, I forget how it ends…and I'm eating the rest of those cookies."
Skipping along Chloe couldn't wait, "I'll make the pizza rolls, but I'm vetoing the vodka."
"Let's have a Friends mini-marathon and instead lets order a pizza, that place around the corner from the house is open until 2AM on Fridays," Beca stated excitedly, digging out her phone she passed it to Chloe, "I got them on speed dial, call and order it now. We'll pick it up when we pass by."
"Do we have beer?"
"Like one bottle, but I know a grocery store open all night!"
