Chapter 21 – Let's Do This
Beca and Chloe's 2nd anniversary is coming up in a 3 weeks, unfortunately Beca's concert will start at that month so Beca decided to make their anniversary plan earlier than intended. She knew Chloe was busy helping Aubrey and Stacie fixing their wedding plans and this is the time where Beca collects. She flew to New York from L.A. to finally collect a debt and she's sure that she won't be disappointed. She knocked on the green door and waiting for it to open. Aubrey's smile disappeared as she opened her door expecting it to be her bestfriend but instead it was a small brunette with a smirk that definitely has something up her sleeve. "You're not Chloe." She stated as she widen the door and stepped to the side.
"Nope, definitely not." Beca told her as she went inside "is Stacie here?" she asked the blonde and Aubrey just shook her head "good because I'm here to collect."
The blonde crossed her arms in front of her chest "What do you mean?" she asked with a brow arched directing at the brunette.
"Remember that one time when you forget your anniversary?" Beca reminded her and the blonde quickly stiffed at the memory. "I helped with that so you owe me and now I'm collecting." The brunette informed her.
Aubrey puffed the air out of her lungs and rested her arms at her side "What do you need me to do?" she asked the brunette "Cover you for Chloe? Tell Chloe you're cancelling?"
Beca chucked not expecting her instinct to be right that Aubrey will think of the favor as her covering for the brunette "None of that actually." She cleared to her and Aubrey sat down on the stool at the counter and gestured for the brunette to follow "Thank you, what I'm asking is that I know Chloe is really important to you this coming days." She stated as she looked at Aubrey waiting for her reaction but the blonde just looked at her waiting for her to continue. She cleared her throat before she continued "I want her to be away from all this" she gestured at the whole wedding preparations at the new apartment, the blonde gasped horror evident in her face at the thought of Chloe being away for the preparation "Hold on," Beca held her hand at Aubrey "Our 2ndanniversary is coming up and we both have our own schedule so I wanted to celebrate our anniversary this coming week. 12 days to be exact." She explained to the blonde.
Aubrey tilt her head at the side as she looked at Beca "I don't know Beca, we're pretty tight on schedule here." She told the brunette teasing her.
Beca chucked "are you serious!?" she asked as she stood from the chair "If you won't do it, I will tell Stacie that you forgot your anniversary and the hotel was a last minute call." She threatened the blonde.
Aubrey laughed at her "Do you really think that I'm gonna stop you from celebrating your anniversary with Chloe?" she asked as she looked at the brunette ready to fight her if she says no to the request. "Of course you can take Chloe, I think we can survive without her for 12 days." She smiled at Beca "plus she really needs a vacation right now and she better be well rested because when she comes back.." she was cut off by Beca as she continued what she was about to say.
"It's close to your wedding date, that making the most crucial time for preparation." Beca ended "I know." She said as she gave the blonde a grin and sat back beside her "you're getting married." She said out loud.
"You're celebrating your anniversary…with Chloe." They both looked at each other making sure that it's really happening. "Can you believe it? Did you ever expect that we'll be on this situation?"
Beca just shook her head, even for her sometimes she pinches herself just to make sure that she's not dreaming "Not in a million years." She said as they both looked at the window "but I couldn't ask for more." she chuckled lightly "I may have some dreams before all this but this reality is much better than my fantasy." She told the blonde.
"Yeah" Aubrey agreed with her "definitely better." They stayed silent for a few minutes before the blonde slapped her hand on the counter and look back on the brunette "I'll see Chloe back in 12 days and you at the wedding, right?" Beca nodded at her as she walked towards the door then Aubrey added "Good luck with that concert." The brunette smiled as she walked out the apartment.
Since Aubrey moved in with Stacie their old apartment went to Chloe and it still sometimes feel that she's not the only one living there. Sometimes she would catch herself waiting at night for Aubrey then she would remember that they don't live together anymore. She sighed as she contemplates on how Aubrey's life is going now. She's happy for her bestfriend, no doubt about that it's just that sometimes she really misses her. Even though she knew that she can just pick up the phone and call her bestfriend there would be nothing wrong with it but Aubrey is with someone now and she didn't know if what acceptable time she can still call her bestfriend at night. Is it no more answering when the clock strikes 12? Or is it 2am?
There was a knock on the door that disturbed her reflecting, she stood and went to open the door and smiled widely as she saw her girlfriend standing there with her bags beside her. She immediately threw herself at the brunette "I missed you!" she said as she started peppering the brunette from her cheek to her mouth to her neck.
Beca lauged as she push her girlfriend inside the apartment "Come on, I think we should continue this inside where no one can see us." She said as she took Chloe's hand and walked her to her bedroom. They spent almost the whole day showing how much they miss each other and Chloe's neighbor sure did knew how much they miss each other.
Chloe emerged from her room after taking a nap as Beca was sitting at the couch watching whatever was on the TV. "You sleep fine?" Beca asked her as the redhead curled herself beside the brunette and she just nodded at Beca's neck as she gave it a kiss. After a few minutes of silence Beca cleared her throat before she spoke again "I was thinking…" she look down at Chloe making sure her girlfriend is awake and listening. "About our coming anniversary." Chloe nuzzled herself further knowing that the brunette won't be with her for their 2nd anniversary because of her upcoming concert. Chloe sighed as they won't be able to celebrate again since their 1st anniversary they had a fight and now this.
Beca sense the gloomy energy that her girlfriend seemed to produce when she mentioned their anniversary. She cupped the brunette's cheek and gave her a kiss "I was thinking maybe we could celebrate it this coming week." She said as she waited for the redhead's reaction.
Chloe's eyes grew wide "Really?" Beca nodded at her and her face light up at the idea.
"I was thinking about just us." The brunette pointed at them "going some faraway place. Just us for 12 days." She informed Chloe and waited for her decision.
Chloe's smile fade as her girlfriend told her how long they were gonna be away. She knew that Aubrey needed her at this moment. She didn't wanna let her bestfriend down especially at this time. "12 days?" she confirmed and Beca just nodded at her "don't you think that's too long?" she questioned the brunette then quickly added "I mean I want to spend that long with you, actually longer but" Chloe took a deep breath "Aubrey and Stacie's wedding.." Beca held her hand up for Chloe to stop.
"Why don't you call Aubrey." Beca told her "I'm sure she'll say yes and you need this honey." She said as she held the redhead's hand and kissed her knuckles "you need to relax before you actually submerge to the whole wedding extravaganza." Beca teased her and the redhead just shook her head. Beca was right though she hasn't had a time for herself lately and this vacation will surely regain her energy for the coming days.
Chloe sighed then she looked for her phone and dialed her bestfriend "You really think she'll say yes?" she asked Beca nervously.
Beca laughed "Chloe Danielle Beale trust me, I don't think no one can say 'No' to you." She said as she gives her a peck on the cheek. "I'm getting you coffee." Chloe smiled at her thankfully.
After a few rings Aubrey finally answered her phone. "Hey 'Brey! How are you doing today?" they made small chat before the redhead started "I have to tell you something" she nervously said "I'm gonna be gone for 12 days…really? You sure?" Chloe looked excitedly at her girlfriend with thumbs up "okay, I'll see you when I get back." She said before she hangs up.
"I'm guessing it went great." Beca told her as she gave the redhead her coffee. "So we're a go?" the brunette asked and Chloe nodded vigorously.
Chloe and Beca were at the airport checking their luggage for the private plane. "Let's go" Beca told her girlfriend as she hold her hand.
Chloe felt a nudge on her side "mmm…what?" she blinked a couple of times as she stirred awake.
"Wake up honey we're here." Beca whispered to her ear. "come on." The brunette pecks her cheek.
They were on the red Jeep wrangler and Chloe was looking around the view. "Where are we?" the redhead asked her girlfriend as she rested her head on her shoulder.
"Well we are in Italy." The brunette informed her girlfriend as the Jeep stopped in front of a beach house "Sardinia. This is Sardinia." Beca said as they enter the house "and we'll be staying here for the next 12 days."
Chloe gasped as she saw the inside, it was beautiful and it overlooks the beach. "Sweetie, are we on a private beach?" she asked as she looked at the beach. The redhead looked around the living room and saw a picture of her girlfriend at the table "Oh my God! Beca!" she shouted at her.
The brunette came out the bedroom out of breath "What!? What happened? What is it!?" she asked the redhead worriedly.
"Do you own this house?" Chloe asked her straight away and Beca shifted from left to right "You do own this house." The redhead gasped as she absorbs this new information about her girlfriend. "what about the beach?" Chloe asked as she saw that no one was really at the beach. "oh my God it's your beach? You own a beach!?" she shouted while pointing at the brunette and Beca just shrugged.
"Welcome to my hide-out. Happy anniversary…" Beca tried to lighten the mood. "want a drink?" she asked as she walked closer to the redhead. Chloe sat down at the couch trying to adjust to all this new information that just seems to keep coming.
As Beca came back with a drink that she gave the redhead, Chloe asked her right away "How did you get…this?" she gestured around the place "That?" Chloe pointed at the view outside.
"Uhmm…" Beca took a deep breath and walked to where Chloe saw a picture of her. The brunette picked the frame and gave it to Chloe "That's my Grampa" she pointed at the older guy that looked about in his 60s "Nonna's husband, Mom's Dad. Anyway every summer we would go here and just, you know, relax." Beca cleared her throat at the memory of her grandfather "when he died he named me to inherit this." Beca gestured her hands around the place.
Chloe put her hand on Beca's arm and comforted her "You said hide-out?" the redhead asked lightening the mood.
Beca laughed heartily and finished her drink then she took the redhead's hand and guides her to the beach. They sat on the sand watching as the tides turn "When I get stressed, pressured or just needed a getaway I would always go here." She enlightened the redhead. "But I barely go here lately." She smiled lovingly at Chloe.
"Why is that?" Chloe looked at her like she's crazy. "How can you not go here often? Look at this place." She stated as she looked at the crystal blue water and white cool sand, its paradise Chloe sighed.
"Like I said, this has always been my escape place." Beca stated "I only came here when I need to clear my mind. Besides whenever I need someone to calm and reassure me I already had someone who's not million miles away." Beca grinned at Chloe as the redhead rested her head at Beca's shoulder "And I tell you it's much better than seeing and talking to you than staring at this and talking to myself." She told the redhead.
Chloe laughed as she gave the redhead a lovingly kiss on the lips "I love you" she whispered at their lips. "When was the last time you where here?" she asked.
Beca looked at her as she remembered "Oh…" the redhead looked at her waiting for her to say something. Beca finally gave in "remember our big fight? The one where we stay away from each other for a week." Beca reminded her.
"the one that became 10 days." Chloe added quickly. She will never live that down. Beca just nodded at her "That was…" Chloe contemplate on it "that was a year ago." She confirmed. Beca put her arm around the redhead's shoulder as they watch the sunset set in.
"Like I said, you beat all of this." The brunette whispered at her ear then gave her a kiss on the temple before she said "I love you."
After minutes of comfortable silence the brunette said "I'm planning on moving." Beca informed her out of nowhere. The redhead just looked at her have no idea on what she's about to say to that. Beca continued "I was wondering if you wanna move in together?" she asked as she retracted her arm back to her and massaged her neck "I mean I totally get it if you think it's still early for us. I'm sorry I was just thinking. It was nothing, forget it." Beca rambled on chastising herself on bringing up the topic.
Chloe laughed as her girlfriend squirmed and fidget with nervousness. She cupped Beca's cheek and gave her a kiss "Yes" the brunette looked shockingly at her and that made her laugh once more and Beca felt melting right there and then. "Yes I would move in with you." She told her as she gave her another kiss and this time she slip her tongue to the brunette. As she pulled away she asked curiously "What about L.A.?"
Beca smiled at her "My contract expired, I'm no longer bound to L.A. and as it turns out I can just go there after a couple of months." She leaned closer to her girlfriend "I can live anywhere. And I want to be in New York, with you." She said as she rested their foreheads together.
Chloe stood up from their position and held her hand at her amazing girlfriend "You really know how to charm a girl can you." She said as Beca help herself up and took Chloe's hand and they went inside the house straight to the bedroom with the song playing on the background as they busied themselves with each other.
I must've stumble out of the plane
cause I free-fell all year
my shoot is illuminous like spring
and I'm nowhere now, but here
But I've seen your long hair come down
it turned my head inside out
and I want you, i want you
I still do

Chloe straddled Beca underneath her as the brunette rest her head on the bed's head board. Beca started kissing the redhead's neck and ran her tongue down to the valley of her breast. Chloe moaned as she felt Beca's hand on her breast and gasped as she felt the brunette's tongue twirled around her nipple. It was warm and wet then the DJ sucks and bit at it that Chloe swore she already came just by that. The redhead felt Beca's arms wrapped around her waist and flipped her and now she laid underneath the brunette and she didn't mind at all.
Beca lay on top of her and they both moaned as they felt the pressure on their centers. The brunette didn't waste time and she pulled Chloe's shorts and tossed it across the room. While Chloe pulled the brunette's shirt off and did the same, the DJ resumed her position and kissed Chloe languidly and as the redhead parted her lips she slipped her tongue in and they both moaned as they felt each other's tongue. It was sweet, hot and heavy. The brunette started grinding their centers together and Chloe bucked her hips upward asking for more contact.
Beca slipped her hand between them and as soon as she touched the redhead's center dripping she immediately get rid of her own shorts. Now both of them are stark naked and Beca ran her tongue from the redhead's belly button to her inner thigh. "Mmm that's so good but I want you now, please." Chloe begged her and Beca liked it when Chloe does that. She smiled smugly at her as she finally ran her tongue on the redhead's length. She ran her tongue up and down going from fast to slow at the redhead's folds. "Beca" Chloe whispered and the brunette finally enter the redhead with her tongue. She went in as far as she could.
"You taste so great baby." She said as she repeated her actions a couple more times then she put her thumb at the redhead's swelling clit. She entered the redhead with her tongue and when she pull she would lick to the clit and flicked it with her tongue. She pulled away for a couple of seconds to the redhead's center to rest her tongue and entered the redhead with two fingers instead. As she reached knuckle deep she curled her fingers inside and touched the redhead's G spot. Chloe squirmed and started moving against Beca as she buried her hand at the brunette's luscious hair. Beca pulled away her fingers as she felt Chloe's walls gripped her, the redhead growled at her and Beca quickly latched her tongue back to the redhead's center. She pulled in and out as fast as she can when Chloe panted and started tightening her grip on her hair and closing her thigh on Beca's head. The brunette felt the walls around her tongue contracting and she wiggled it inside and Chloe screamed with pleasure as she finally came. When Chloe released her Beca finally came up beside her girlfriend and lay there as she catch her breath.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Your wrists were bound in my hands
while I wash around my naked feet
your blue jeans over in the sand
we were wrestling up in the blanket sheets
But I've seen your long hair come down
(seen your long hair come down)
turned my head inside out
(turned my head inside out)
And I want you, I want you
I still do
I still, I still do
I've seen your long hair come down
and turned my head inside out
but I've seen your long hair come down
turned my head inside out
(Quesadilla by Walk the Moon)
Chloe came on top of the brunette and wiggled her eyebrows as she licks her girlfriend's nipple while putting her hand between them. Chloe knew that Beca was already close so she entered her with two fingers and started thrusting hard at her. The brunette panted and Chloe fasten her pace as she simultaneously massaged the brunette's swelling clit. "I'm so close" Beca told her and Chloe lowered herself and started licking the brunette's clit as she continuously thrust two fingers inside her. As Beca's breath started to shorten Chloe fasten her face and entered her tongue inside as well with her finger. Beca came hard at Chloe and finally was able to breathe again.
Their anniversary celebration consisted of cooking for each other, okay more on Beca cooking for them. Then staying outside and enjoying the beach to having sex in the beach. The privilege of having a private beach. And barely wearing clothes around the house and doing it at every part of the house.

The day is finally here and both Aubrey and Stacie is nervous and freaking out. "Relax Stacie, what are you scared about anyway?" Beca asked her as she's on team Stacie as her girlfriend would like to call it and of course her being on team Aubrey. The Bellas split up to 2 teams and comfort the brides on their big day.
"I don't know why I'm nervous Beca. I just am." Stacie sighed "What if she changes her mind? What if she got cold feet? What if she thinks it's too early to get married?" the tall brunette started rambling.
Beca hold her hand up telling her to stop "Stacie she asked you to marry her. I doubt she's going to change her mind." Beca reassured her friend.
Finally Stacie calmed down and looked at her finger and traced her engagement ring. A 1.26 carat center diamond in an exquisite platinum setting with ornate prongs and a graceful leaf motif. The six leaves each hold a single-cut diamond. The Celestina Ring looks incredible on her and she still feel like she's dreaming. "It's my wedding, it's my day and it's gonna be great from here on out." She told herself while facing the mirror.
Aubrey was waiting on the altar for her future wife as her maid of honor, Chloe stood beside her. They both watched as the tall beautiful brunette walked down the aisle accompanied by her father. Aubrey let a tear out as her wife to be stood in front of her and handed to her by her father. They are both wearing a beautiful white dress that stands out from the rest of the people in their venue. It was a beautiful fall wedding and Chloe was smug about her work. Of course she's proud of herself, it was one of the most beautiful wedding she'd seen.
Finally their vows are being said and Aubrey and Stacie decided to have the same vow. Aubrey started her vow as she put Stacie's wedding ring and recited their vows and the same as with Stacie. You are my lover and my teacher, You are my model and my accomplice, And you are my true counterpart. I will love you, hold you and honor you, I will respect you, encourage you and cherish you, In health and sickness, Through sorrow and success, For all the days of my life. When they both finished saying their vows they still end up teary eyed. They looked at their wedding ring, the one given by Aubrey's Gran and it was beautiful. Faceted round garnets add a splash of color to 14K yellow gold antique style wedding bands. In between the garnets are scrolling designs each set with a sparkling diamond at the center.
"I now pronounce you partners for life. You may now kiss." The couple looked at each other and whispered 'I love you' before they gave a quick sweet kiss to one another. Everyone clapped and cheered at the newlywed. Then Fat Amy shouted "it's time to party aca-buhuchs" Cynthia Rose and Jessica quickly pulled and put their hand on Fat Amy's mouth as they went to the side.
They arrived at the reception area and the Bellas are staying on one table and they all laughed and congratulated the couple as Aubrey and Stacie went to their table. "I can't believe you bitches are married." Fat Amy told them while taking a sip from her drink. "Hey I'll be the Godmother of your spawn right?" she asked them and both Aubrey and Stacie just shook their heads while smiling.
"Sure Amy, you will be." Stacie said then the DJ for the night announced that the first dance for the newlywed is happening. Aubrey guides her to the middle of the room and twirled her before she settled in front of the blonde "What song did you pick?" she whispered at Aubrey as she put her right arm around her neck and Aubrey's right hand and Stacie's left held between them and they started swaying as the music starts.
When you came to me with your bad
dreams and your fears
It was easy to see that you'd been crying
Seems like everywhere you turn
catastrophe it reigns
But who really profits from the dying
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you in my arms forever
When you kissed my lips with my
mouth so full of questions
It's my worried mind that you quiet
Place your hands on my face
Close my eyes and say
Love is a poor man's food
Don't prophesize
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever
And I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever
So now we see how it is
This fist begets the spear
Weapons of war
Symptoms of madness
Don't let your eyes refuse to see
Don't let your ears refuse to hear
Or you ain't never going to shake
this sense of sadness
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold on forever
And I could hold you in my arms
I could hold forever
(Hold You In My Arms by Ray Lamontagne)
"I love you Mrs. Conrad" Stacie teased at her wife as she gave her a kiss on the lips.
"I love you too Mrs. Posen" Aubrey wrapped her arms around her wife's waist and pulled her in a much deeper and longer kiss. Everyone looked at the newlywed as their first dance ended.
Everyone had a great time, the food was amazing, the decorations, the atmosphere even though there was a couple of shouting from certain Australian. Another couple decided to finally call it a night and go home to their new place.
When Chloe and Beca got back from Sardinia they started looking for potential places where they would live together. After a week they saw a beautiful loft and quickly started working on getting it. After a month they finally got the place unfortunately Beca was having a concert for her 1st album and wasn't able to be hands on regarding the design for the loft. But Chloe was a superwoman and managed to finish half of the loft. "I guess now we can actually finish our place." Beca stated "since I just finished my concert and Aubrey and Stacie wedding is finally over."
"Yes" Chloe tugged on the brunette's shirt and pulled her closer "but maybe we can start tomorrow." She wiggled her eyebrows at her. "You know the first place I started is the bedroom so it's finally complete."
Beca laughed at her girlfriend. Confused on how she can be fiercely sophisticated and adorable at the same time. "One of this days I'm gonna die and the reason is because of your sexiness." Chloe laughed at her and opened their music system and the song started playing "You know this song remind me of you."
Chloe looked at her "really?" she asked.
"Well it's what I was feeling before we started dating." Beca informed her "Even until now actually. This song at some point still fits." Chloe pulled the brunette to the couch and curled beside her. "I thought we're going to bed."
"We can do that later." Chloe told her as she nuzzled her nose at the crook of Beca's neck. "I love you" she whispered at her ear.
Beca looked dearly at her with her dark blue eyes like the deep of the ocean and gave the redhead a quick kiss on the lips and whispered between their lips "I love you." As she pulled Chloe closer to her side.
You want to stay with me in the morning
You only hold me when I sleep
I was meant to tread the water
Now I've gotten in too deep
For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away
'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might know my heart
You already waited up for hours
Just to spend a little time alone with me
And I can say I've never bought you flowers
I can't work out what they mean
I never thought that I'd love someone
That was someone else's dream
'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might call you from my heart
But it might be a second too late
And the words that I could never say
Gonna come out anyway
'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might know my heart
Know my heart, know my heart, know my heart
(You Give Me Something by James Morrison)
