"And even if that person lowered his eyes, his silence says it all. There's nothing better than silence, it says it all." Beca said leaning in
Chloe placed her hand on Beca's cheek and looked at her lips, She leaned in and taking the brunette's lips in a soft kiss, both feeling the passion, Beca stood up from her chair not bothering to break the kiss and stood in front of Chloe as she deepened the kiss. Chloe pulled away after a few minutes, both breathless.
"Beca," Chloe whispered softly.
"If you are going to apologize, please don't. I wanted this to happen also." Beca replied softly.
"I-I have to go back to my room," The redhead said nervously.
"Wait, let me pay the tab and we'll go back together. Please, Chloe." The newspaper owner said softly. "Please."
Chloe nodded and bit her lip. Beca paid the tab and escorted Chloe out of the bar, the couple said nothing as they made their way back to their rooms, Beca kept glancing at the redhead who had her hand on her lip and staring out of the window. The newspaper owner dropped Chloe at her room and bid her goodnight. As soon as the door room closed, Chloe rested her head on the door.
What did I do? I kissed her, I'm married! She's married! Tom, Oh my God what will I do with him? She thought as she paced the room. Her phone rang, signaling that Tom was calling her. She panicked and turned her phone off, What am I going to do? I can't help but fall in love with her. She thought as she rested her head on the pillow and allowed sleep to take over.
The next morning, she woke up early, she barely slept, all she could dream about was Beca. She took a shower and wrapped her bathrobe around her body and took a deep breath, she dialed Tom's phone number, waiting for him to pick up.
"Hey, bab- Uh, Tom."
"Are you stupid or out of your mind? Didn't you see how many times I called you last night?" Tom yelled into the phone
"I saw them," She said getting nervous.
"HOW MANY?" He asked angrily.
Chloe gulped. "37 times."
"Where were you?"
"I wanted to tell you something"
"Where have you been Chloe, I've been worried sick!"
"Tom, please stop yelling. Stop! Why every time I want to talk to you about something you start yelling? Why when I need you beside me, you aren't there,"
"Do you want to know why the FUCK I am yelling? Look at your fucking phone you'll know why I'm yelling. Where were you all night!"
"I was asleep Tom!"
"ASLEEP?" Tom asked yelling, "WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME BEFORE YOU SLEPT?"
"I just fell asleep, I was supposed to take a nap and I slept accidentally, till now, I just woke up."
Tom scoffed, "You just woke up!? I thought you had a dinner to attend to!"
"I didn't go,"
"You know what, we'll talk later," He said angrily.
"Fine," She said hanging up and throwing the phone onto the bed.
Beca didn't sleep all night, she knew why Chloe freaked out, she understands her reasons perfectly, she was just hoping that it wouldn't change things between them, suddenly her room phone rang, she sighed and picked it up. "Hello?"
"Hey sissy, did you have a good sleep?"
Beca sighed. "I didn't sleep sis,"
"Is something wrong?" Stacie asked worriedly.
"I'm fine sis,"
"I just came back from my run, I thought we'd drink coffee together,"
"Perfect, I'm waiting for you." She said hanging up.
Two minutes later, Stacie knocked on her sister's room, her eyes went wide when she saw that her sister was still wearing yesterday's clothes, "What's going on with you? Why are you still in the same clothes?"
Beca made her way to the sofa's and rubbed her temple.
"Did you sleep with her?" Stacie asked her sister.
"Are you crazy? Of course not."
"Again, what happened last night Beca? You're still in the same clothes,"
"Nothing happened! Drop it will you? Call her and invite her to breakfast."
"Why should I?"
"Because I said so,"
Stacie huffed, "Fine," She said picking up the phone and dialing Chloe's room number. "Hey! You're up, come over to Beca's room so that we can drink coffee together."
Chloe cleared her throat nervously. "N-No thanks! I-I wanted to take a shower."
"Open the door Chloe, I'll be right over."
"Okay," Chloe said softly.
A few seconds later, Chloe opened the door to Stacie who had a cup of coffee in her hand. She noticed that Chloe was in her yesterday's clothes too and her bed was untouched. She sighed, "I need 20 minutes then we'll go all together for breakfast."
"I don't like to eat in the morning."
"It's unhealthy, plus I'm very hungry I was running,"
"It's okay, you can go without me. I need to prepare for today's meeting."
"Fine, but I'll pass by again in case you change your mind," Stacie said smiling.
Stacie entered Beca's room to find that her sister was asking different questions all at once. "Why were you late?" Beca asked as soon as she saw her sister.
The tall brunette raised her eyebrow. "I've been gone only for a minute."
"Whatever, what happened?"
Stacie shook her head. "You tell me first what happened,"
"Why?"
"Because she's still sleepless, she's still in the same clothes, her face was red and her eyes were looking like she was crying. So tell me what happened!"
"Nothing happened, go take your shower, we have to get going for breakfast soon."
True to her words, after about an hour, Stacie knocked on Chloe's door, the redhead opened the door and smiled. "Look who is all fresh," Chloe teased smiling.
Stacie laughed. "I came to get you for breakfast."
"You guys go, and when we are about to leave just give me a call."
The tall brunette sighed. "Can I come in?"
Chloe nodded as Stacie entered the room and picked the phone. "W-What are you doing?" Chloe asked nervously.
"Beca told me to call her if you refused to come downstairs with me,"
"F-Fine!" Chloe said hurriedly. "I'll come, don't call her."
Stacie laughed as she and Chloe left the room and made their way to the lobby. "Did you order all of this?" Stacie asked her sister as she saw a lot of food on the table.
Beca nodded and looked at Chloe who wasn't looking at her. "Let me pour you some coffee," She said softly.
"N-No!" Chloe snapped unintentionally.
Beca looked at her with wide eyes as Stacie tried to understand what was going on between them. Chloe stayed silent throughout breakfast, she only had a cup of coffee, as they finished, they left for their meeting. The meeting was uneventful and Chloe knows that there won't be any business between them and the company. The meeting lasted for three hours and when they finished, Beca and Chloe entered the brunette's room, "Let's sit in the living room." Beca said softly.
"W-We need to talk," Chloe said nervously.
"Okay, but can I talk to you about something first?" Beca asked starting to get nervous. She wanted to tell Chloe about her condition and she was afraid that Chloe would freak out.
Chloe nodded as she got comfortable on the chair. Beca took a deep breath and sighed, "I want you to know who I really am, and I don't want you to change how you look or think about me."
The redhead lifted her gaze to meet the stormy blue eyes. "Nothing could ever change how I think about you. What's wrong?"
"I-I'm not normal, I wasn't born normal Chloe."
"W-What do you mean?"
Beca took another deep breath, "I was born wi-with both male and female parts in my body. That's how I have Noah and Norah, as much as a mistake it was, I'd never trade them."
"S-So you have a penis?" Chloe asked softly.
Beca nodded wordlessly as tears started to fall from her eyes. "S-Say it, I'm a freak, and I disgust you, go ahead Chloe, I've heard these words before, from my wife, from everyone who found out about it."
Chloe's heart sank as she saw the brunette's tears fall. She stood from her place and sat beside Beca hugging her and kissing her temple. "I won't say it, I'm not like that Beca." She felt Beca start to cry harder. "Shh, hey, come on, I admire your honesty Beca." She said softly.
Few minutes passed as Beca's tears dried up. "I'm sorry, I-I needed to tell you. I didn't want you to stay in the dark about my condition."
"And I appreciate it, but this doesn't change anything about how I think of you, listen I know our kiss last night wasn't professional, and I apologize for that Beca, I-I just don't want to make things at work difficult, but I think it was the alcohol."
"Can I ask you something?"
Chloe nodded and waited for the brunette to ask. "I kissed you back, didn't I? It's not like you raped me." She said smirking as the redhead giggled. "Chloe, we can talk about our situation later, for now, go rest, tonight we are going to dinner," Beca said smiling.
Chloe nodded again and smiled as she stood up from the couch. "I'll see you in a few." She said leaving Beca alone in her room. As she entered her bedroom, she called Tom as she found a missed call when she was in the meeting.
"Hey Tom, I just got back from the meeting."
"And how was it?"
"Good, I guess."
"What are you doing?"
Chloe sighed. "Nothing, going to shower, I haven't slept all night."
"What?" Tom asked yelling. "You told me you slept all night," He said accusingly.
Chloe's eyes went wide, she had forgotten about the lie she told Tom. "Yeah, I did, but I didn't sleep well, how're the kids?" She asked nervously changing the subject.
"They are studying, what are your plans tonight?"
"W-We are going to dinner,"
"Who's we Chloe?"
"Stacie, myself and B-Beca,"
Tom huffed. "Fine, call me before you go out tonight and after, I got to go, talk soon." He said as he closed the line. She sighed and took off her clothes to shower.
They were all sitting and having dinner at one of the restaurants in London, they were making small talk and enjoying their food, they went back to their rooms and Chloe couldn't sleep, she made her way to the balcony and saw that Beca was also standing with a glass in her hand. "I thought you were tired." Beca said smirking.
Chloe shrugged. "I couldn't sleep,"
"Want a drink?" Beca offered.
"I'm not drinking when I'm with you," Chloe said giggling.
Beca laughed, "Come over, we'll stay up all night."
Chloe shook her head smiling, "You'd do anything to be with me wouldn't you?"
"I have a proposition if Stacie was with us, would you come over?" Beca suggested, the redhead smiled and nodded. They made their way and knocked on Stacie's door room, the tall brunette glared at them with a smile. "We came to stay over your room," Beca said shrugging, "Where are your drinks?" She asked again.
Stacie pointed at the fridge and threw herself on the bed to continue her sleep. Beca and Chloe sat on one of the couches facing each other, the brunette looked at the redhead with a sad smile. "It's our last night in London."
"Why did you bring us here? Truly not only to meet with those people who we met up with today."
"Don't ask me questions I won't be able to answer, I don't want to lie to you Chloe."
"Why would you?"
"Because I don't want to answer them. Tell me about yourself, are you happy with your husband?"
"It's a tough question." Chloe shrugged.
"Do you love him?"
Chloe nodded, "I do, but our love has slowed down."
"What do you mean?"
"You know, love is a person, for example, love starts like a person who was just born, small and wants to play, a little while it's like a teenager, crazy and hyper but as the years pass, it gets old and boring," Chloe said sadly. "It needs effort."
"True, love gets old, just like a person."
"I love him, but it's like we are only together for the kids, what about you? Are you happy with Diane?"
Beca laughed softly. "Look, I married someone and turns out to be a whole different person. If it wasn't for the kids, I wouldn't have stayed with her." She said quietly. "There's nothing in common between me and her, I'm getting sick of her actions."
"It's normal, the same thing is happening to me,"
"Let me get you a drink."
"I said I won't drink when I'm with you." She said softly.
"Are you afraid to kiss me again?" Beca asked smirking.
"I thought we are closing this subject. When I kissed you I was thinking of someone else."
"Your husband? When you were kissing me, you were thinking of your husband?"
"Yes,"
"Do you want to convince me that you still kiss your husband the same way you kissed me last night?"
"Yes,"
Beca hummed and looked at Chloe, she stood up from her place causing Chloe to stand up also and allow her back to hit the wall.
"Do you want me to prove to you that it's not true?" Beca said making her way in front of Chloe. The redhead looked at Stacie who was clearly passed out.
"What are you going to do?" Chloe asked nervously.
"You aren't drunk, and I want to kiss you." She said getting closer, "I'm getting closer, I won't kiss you against your will, so if you want, stop me." She said softly as she placed her hands on either side of Chloe's body and got closer.
A/N; What do you guys think? Is Chloe going to stop Beca? Tell me what you think.
