Chloe and Beca have been dating for 3 months. Things were going well and then Chloe thought about graduating. She knew she would leave Barden soon and most especially Beca. She didn't want to let Beca go. She didn't believe in long distance relationships but she couldn't break up with her now that her feelings for the brunette became stronger the past few months.

One late afternoon, Chloe plopped down on the couch and let out a frustrated sigh. Aubrey was reading a magazine and frowned at the disappointed redhead.

"Is everything alright?" Aubrey closed the magazine and quirked an eyebrow. She can hear her best friend mumble.

Chloe groaned, "I don't think I can do this."

"What do you mean?" Aubrey turned to face her and still looked confused.

"It was really embarrassing," Chloe continued talking to herself.

"Oh my god, Chloe. Just tell me. What is going on?" Aubrey demanded and rolled her eyes.

Chloe sighed and said, "Fine." She sat properly and began with her story.

Chloe spent the day with Beca in her dorm. She had thought about their relationship and how they've gone this far. This was something. She remembered what Beca had told her during their first night together. Chloe thought it was weird and sweet but instead of replying, she just gave Beca a kiss. She wasn't sure with Beca that time yet. She thought it was just a fling. There are times when they are on the phone and Chloe had the chance to tell her but she hesitated. She wasn't used to this kind of thing. She had never gone this far in a relationship with someone.

She thought that today was the right time to say those three words.

"Beca," Chloe said softly. She bit her lip nervously.

"Yep?" Beca looked up from her book and half-smiled.

Chloe took a deep breath and looked at Beca in the eyes and said, "Falafel."

Beca stretched out her neck and raised her eyebrows, "What?" She slowly smiled.

"Uh...I mean I like waffles," Chloe froze for a moment and blushed. She mentally slapped herself.

Beca chuckled, "Okay. We'll go to the diner tonight and eat some waffles."

Chloe let out a nervous laugh and looked away from Beca who continued reading. She busied herself by playing games on her phone.

Aubrey was surprised with her story. She raised her eyebrows in amusement, "Falafel?"

"I totally choked," Chloe covered her face in embarrassment.

Aubrey laughed, "I wonder what Beca did to you. Why can't you just tell her that you love her? It's not like you've never said that to the guys you dated before."

Chloe didn't reply. She just bit the inside of her cheek and looked away.

"No. Way." Aubrey gave her a look of disbelief.

"I know I've dated a lot of guys but those relationships only lasted for like 2 months. Normally it's just a fling. I've never been in a relationship this long." Chloe sighed.

"Wait, are you planning on breaking up with Beca after graduation?"

Chloe didn't reply again.

Aubrey's jaw dropped, "Chloe! You can't do that. That girl is head over heels in love with you."

"I am not going to break up with her. I love her so much. It's just hard for me to say it in front of her," Chloe frowned.

"Well, you had the guts to say falafel," Aubrey playfully rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. She watched Chloe as she relaxed her body on the couch. She placed her hand on her lap, "Look, Chloe. Don't worry about it. You can say it when you're ready."

Chloe sighed and checked the time, "Oh yeah, I'm going to meet Beca tonight." She remembered.

"Yeah and you can tell her falafel again," Aubrey teased. Chloe playfully slapped her arm then left.

After eating dinner, Beca and Chloe took a long walk. They held hands while walking.

"So what are you going to do after graduation?" Beca asked.

"I'm going to New York and audition." Chloe said as she brushed her thumb on the brunette's knuckles.

Beca's faced dropped but she forced a smile. Sure, she didn't want Chloe to leave but she wanted to support her girlfriend. "That's great. I'm sure you'll crush it."

"Thanks." Chloe kissed her cheek. There was another moment of silence then Chloe finally had the guts to say it."Beca,"

They stopped walking and Beca stood in front of her, "Yes?"

Chloe looked back at those dark blue eyes and smiled lovingly, "I love you."

Beca tried to stop the smile that was forming on her face. She was thankful that it was dark so Chloe wouldn't see her blushing.

Chloe sighed in relief, "Well that wasn't so hard."

"I love you too," Beca leaned in to give Chloe a passionate kiss on the lips. Chloe kissed her back and she wrapped her arms around the younger girl's neck.

Beca pulled away and quirked her eyebrow with a smirk, "Is that what you were going to tell me a while ago?"

"I know. I screwed up," Chloe rolled her eyes good-naturedly.

"Falafel," Beca chuckled.

"Shut up." Chloe playfully slapped her arm then linked their arms together as they continued walking.

When they had finally reached Chloe's dorm, they stopped by the door. Beca pulled Chloe in for a kiss on the lips. The redhead wrapped her arms around Beca's neck as the younger girl's hands slid around her waist. As the kiss became heated, Chloe pulled away to say something.

Chloe let their foreheads touch and she said in a soft voice, "I'm sorry it took so long to say it."

"It's okay," Beca smiled and connected their lips. Chloe smiled into the kiss. They both created a distance but their faces were only a few inches apart and gazed at each other.

"I guess I was just waiting for the right person." Chloe said with a smirk.

Beca widened her eyes and pointed at herself. Chloe giggled and nodded. Her arms were still around Beca's neck.

"I have been waiting for you," Chloe said as she brushed her nose against Beca's.

"I still don't understand why you fell in love with me. Is it because of my hot body?" Beca laughed lightly.

Chloe looked up and pretended to think about it, "From the moment I heard your shower, yeah I fell in love."

Beca shook her head while smiling and leaned in but Chloe stopped her, "If you do that, I might not let you go. And you," she poked her nose, "have a 9AM class tomorrow."

The brunette pouted, "Fine." She gave her a quick kiss on the lips.

"Goodbye. I'll see you tomorrow," Chloe winked at Beca who was walking backwards with a bright smile. The younger girl casually waved her hand then turned away. She raised her fist in the air as she walked away.

"What a dork," Chloe giggled. She thought it was adorable and was happy that she was in love with her and that she has someone like Beca.

The "falafel" thing was based on a How I Met Your Mother episode. :) I'm a HIMYM fan I know lol. I hope you enjoyed reading these two chapters.

Sorry for the very late update. I got stuck in Chapter 13 to be honest.
