Took me long enough lol but things have been crazier and shittier than ever. Like I said on the last chapter, I'm not leaving and or dropping this story.
Thanks to a playlist someone sent me, I had the enough inspiration to write this, so if you have a cool playlist you can always send it to me via pm, I love hearing new music.
Williams1 and Guest: I'm guessing you are the same(? But anyway, I don't write as Chloe since I identify myself more to Beca than Chloe and is really hard for me to write her pov, but I'll try to do it even tho I don't promise anything
There was another review that I can't find anymore(edit, I found it lol), Kiimi: is 'And' not 'Amd'... you can always stop reading this story dude, I really wouldn't mind.
Enjoy the chapter guys and see ya on the next one!
The numbness in her left arm was the first thing that Beca felt— or didn't felt? —the next morning.
Red hair sprawled all over her face and chest, arm and leg draped around her waist and legs.
It was like having a fucking tick stuck to you, but it was a nice feeling, Beca had missed this feeling since Chloe decided to move out of her apartment. She missed waking up next to Chloe, she missed the smell of her hair and the warm feeling of her body.
She missed Chloe.
She was busy creeping out on Chloe's sleeping face when the ringtone of her phone scared the crap out of her. Kinsley's name appeared across the screen along with a picture of her doing silly faces— when she took that picture, Beca will never know —.
She hurried to pick it up before it woke Chloe but it was too late, sleepy bright blue eyes were staring at her under narrowed eyebrows. Beca shrugged sheepishly before putting the phone close to her ear.
Kinsley told her she was calling to remind her about their interview and that she'll see her in an hour at her parents house. Finishing the call she got a text from her with the address.
She was way too comfortable in Chloe's bed with Chloe next to her but she had agreed to the interview the night before so she was going to stick to her word.
After asking Chloe if she could borrow some clothes, she went to take a shower leaving a pouting Chloe in bed. The shower was more than relaxing, when she got out of the bathroom she found Chloe asleep again and decided to not wake her up. She wrote a note letting her know that she was coming back a couple of hours later and placed it under Chloe's phone.
On her way out she found Dakota reading in the living room and after sharing some pleasantries she left the house. Promising Dakota that she was coming back later that day.
The interview with Kinsley was weird, mainly because it was weird to talk about her music and how she worked at Stan's club. It was also weird because Kinsley did a mini photo shoot with her saying her boss wanted pictures with the article.
It was nice to talk to Kinsley though, it hadn't been too long since they had met but she felt really comfortable with the girl. It was nice to have another person to talk to that wasn't her cousin or Stan.
After leaving Kinsley's house she made her way back to Chloe's, it was an awesome day so far and she couldn't wait for her date with Chloe.
The door was thrown open startling her a little, she wasn't waiting such a fast response, it was one of the maids in the house who opened the door and when Beca stepped inside the house she saw Chloe hurrying down the stairs. Looking beautiful as always.
"You're back," she threw her arms around Beca's neck and kissed her cheek. "Why are you wet?."
"Oh, shit, let me go outside to take this thing off. It's snowing." Beca started walking back towards the door but Chloe grabbed her by the hand stopping her.
"It's snowing?!" Chloe asked with furrowed eyebrows and walked to the window to look outside. "Are you kidding me…"
"What's wrong weirdo," Beca laughed, "don't you like snow?"
"I do," she turned around to look at Beca, "In fact, I love it, though I'm not it's fan right now. I hate it right now."
"Why?." Beca was taken back by the answer, it could be the hormones that were making her act all bipolar.
"It's our date night, Beca. I was supposed to take you out and sweep you off your feet and make you fall in love with me and all that but now I can't, thanks to the freaking snow!." Chloe's voice went from a quiet whine to a really loud scream.
"Hey, calm down," Beca took Chloe's face into her hands and pulled her close, "breathe deep, we can go on our date any other day."
"No, w-" Chloe stopped talking and got lost looking at Beca's eyes with her mouth forming an 'o'
"Did you broke?." She asked whilst poking Chloe on the belly.
"I got it!," She yelled and slapped Beca's hand away, "be right back." Chloe ran as much as a pregnant woman can up the stairs leaving Beca all confused at the bottom of the stairs.
"She just got an idea."
"Holy fuck! The hell dude? You scared me." Beca put a hand on her chest.
Eli blinked at her, "I live here."
"I know! But I didn't expect you. Anyway, why do you say she just got an idea?."
"That's her idea face, anyway…" Eli turned his body to Beca. "Want some waffles?"
"Uh….sure, why not."
"Go to the kitchen, mom and pa are there. I'll go get Chlo."
Eli went upstairs to get her sister whilst Beca walked into the kitchen. She found Dakota standing in front of the stove cooking something and Mark sitting at the counter reading some book.
"Beca! You're back." Dakota was the first one to notice her.
She nodded. "I am, need some help with that?" She pointed at the skillet in Dakota's hand.
"No way, take a seat next to Mark, I'm almost done honey."
Beca did as she was told and took a seat next to Mark, noticing now that he put down the book, that he was reading 'The art of war'.
"Beca."
"Sir...quite interesting reading you doing there."
"It sure is. Our daughter happened to tell us she's taking you on a date, we're glad that you guys are done bullshitting around and got straight to the point."
The use of such colorful word caught Beca and Dakota— who threw a blueberry at Mark's head after she scolded him —of guard but left Beca with a smirk on her lips and her eyebrows a bit raised. "Uh, yeah, I uh, I think it was time to do it. Gotta admit I love your use of the 'bullshitting' word, sir."
"We're grownups, Beca, I think I'm allowed to say those types of words even though my wife is obviously against it." He took the blueberry from the table where it fell after hitting his head and tossed it into his mouth.
"Okay, I'm done with my plans and I hope you enjoy our night out." Chloe entered the kitchen making her announcement and dropping a kiss on Beca's cheek in the process.
"You're lucky I managed to convince her there was no need for an helicopter in all of this," Beca's face went from a smile from the kiss to one of horror when she heard what Eli said, he laughed throwing his head back and after a few seconds he informed her that he was just kidding.
By then Dakota was already serving the waffles, orange juice, coffee and cut up pieces of fruit to their respective owners.
"I was planning on this amazing picnic at a botanic garden a friend of my dad owns but he had to close it thanks to the snow, so this is the best second thing I thought about." Chloe said when they stepped out of the SUV, they were in front of a way too fancy restaurant.
Beca was more than nervous and uncomfortable since her choice of clothes wasn't the best for this type of restaurant but Chloe reassured her that she was fine and that she looked really beautiful.
The inside of the restaurant was even fancier and when the host saw Chloe he immediately went to greet her and asked them to follow him. Trailing behind the host they came face to face with none other than Victoria.
"I see they haven't banned the trash like you from places like this." She directed her jab to Chloe but it was Beca who got offended and immediately stepped up in front of her to say all the shit she had at the tip of her tongue, but Chloe's hand on the small of her back made her relax and forget whatever she was about to say.
"It's not worth it, I won't let anything or anyone, let alone her, ruin our night." She said to Beca and moved around Victoria to follow the host who was waiting at them close to a door. Victoria of course, was left fuming and shooting daggers at them.
The host took Chloe and Beca up some narrowed steps and into a dark room.
"We prepared everything as you ordered, Miss Beale." He moved to the wall and moving some buttons a faint light came alive illuminating the whole room.
There was a small round table in the middle with rose petals around it, a couch in front of a huge window looking at the city and a bunch of candles that were being lit by the host who when he was finished left the room telling them the waiter was ready for them whenever they needed him.
"This is…" Beca was floored, she expected to eat at the main restaurant with all that rich and judgy people but now that she was here, seeing something Chloe had planned for them left her without words, "I really don't know what to say, Chlo, this is beautiful."
Chloe smiled, "I'm glad you like it, c'mon let's seat and call our waiter." She took Beca's hand and guided her to the table but before she had the chance to get close, Beca pulled her towards one of the chairs and pull it out for her.
When the waiter entered the room he gave them their menus, as soon as Beca's eyes saw the food in the menu she had to take a second look, she just couldn't believe it, "Is this…Uh is it a joke?" She asked looking at Chloe.
"No, I want you to feel comfortable. The location changed because the snow ruined my plans, but I kept everything else, even the menu," She gave her menu back to the waiter, "I'll take the burger, lots of fries and a chocolate milkshake please."
"Uh, um…" Beca took another minute to look at her menu again, "I guess I'll take the...taco bell?. You really have that?" She asked the waiter who in turn just smiled and nodded.
"We have nacho cheese, fiery and cool ranch doritos."
"Ooh, great. I'll have the nacho cheese tacos and a sprite, please."
"So tell me about your grandma." Chloe started the conversation once their food was served.
Beca took a sip of her sprite and sighed, "She was amazing and crazy," She chuckled, "that's the only way I can describe her and don't get me wrong, I say it in the best way possible. Have you seen the Harry Potter movies?." She asked Chloe who gave her a 'duh' look.
"Okay fine, that was a stupid question," Beca admitted, "uh, she was like a mix between Augusta, Neville's grandma and Mrs. Wesley. I mean she didn't dressed as awful as Neville's grandma but she was just as crazy, she was a rocker, always wearing leather, grandpa was the same. She loved hearing Elvis Presley's music, Chuck Berry and all those, she made the house shake with how loud she listened her music.
"She wasn't like any other ladies in the neighborhood but no one dared to make fun of her or say anything in general. They knew not to mess with the Mitchell family, either grandpa, dad or my uncle would beat their asses off if they did. I kept their tradition going." There was a smirk on her face.
"Yeah, I think I've seen your 'tradition'." Chloe laughed, she wanted to ask about Beca's parents too but she didn't wanted to bring the mood down. "Since we met I've been wondering if you were teased or bullied by your…'condition'?."
"Not really, I mean outside my family just the doctors knew I was born like this. I never had a problem with that, at least not as a kid, as a grownup it had been hard to find a girlfriend or to even have one night stands. I mean, you know you were my first."
"But, were you trying to find someone?," Chloe asked with a jealousy tone.
"To be honest, I wasn't. I've always been conscious that I'm not really normal and that that might freak people, especially girls, so I never really tried. I don't think I even would've told you about it if I wasn't drunk that night and I really don't regret doing it." She grabbed Chloe's hand and placed a kiss on it.
"I'm glad you don't regret it."
"So tell me about you."
"Well, unlike you, I was bullied as a kid. I was already the freak of the class because of my red hair, but I was picked on the most because I was really chubby. That's how I met Stacie actually, she stood up for me against this kid who was saying mean things to me," Chloe laughed remembering that day, "She punched him straight in the face, she was put in timeout but the next day when she came to talk to me she said it was worth it."
"I would've liked to see that," Beca joined her laughing, "Did you ever tell your parents about that kid?."
"I did but after Stacie took care of him, I didn't want them to know I couldn't defend myself, even though I couldn't."
They kept talking about their life's, always leaving the heavy parts aside to keep the light mood. In general it was an amazing night so far.
Paul was waiting for them at the entrance when they got out of the restaurant and took them to the next part of their date.
They arrived to their destination half an hour later, Beca couldn't see where they were since Chloe had cover her eyes with her hands. With Paul's help they got down of the SUV and went inside the place.
Chloe removed her hands away from Beca's eyes, letting her see where they were. After a minute of trying to adjust her eyes to the light, Beca saw they were at an ice skating ring.
Again, Beca was surprised and without words by this.
"It sucks right? Damn it, I knew it sucked but you know the snow ruined my plans so I had to improvised and my stupid brain came up with th-."
Her rant was stopped by Beca's lips on her, she relaxed and started to kiss back. When she was enjoying it the most, Beca stepped back, loving the way Chloe moved forward following her lips.
"It doesn't suck, it's perfect. Though is kind of dangerous for a pregnant woman."
"Yeah, that just came to mind." Chloe sighed defeated, "Let's just go, I'm sorry for this stupid date, I'm sure is the worst you've ever had." She grabbed Beca's hand to go back outside but Beca stopped her.
"Is not stupid, Chlo. Just being with you makes it the best date and night in my whole life. It may be dangerous but we can seat at some bench and enjoy the music."
"Are you sure?," Beca nodded, "Okay then. Lead the way."
"I'd loved to stay the night but it's been so incredible that I don't want to ruin it." They were standing outside the door of Chloe's house, she had just invited Beca to stay the night since it was really late.
"You wouldn't, there's nothing you can do to ruin tonight. And you know my parents are okay with you staying here."
Beca got lost in Chloe's lips and took her a couple of seconds to respond. "Okay then." Her voice came out as a whisper, she looked back at Chloe's lips again, "there's something I want to do properly before we go inside though. Something I wanted to do since our date started."
She moved forward placing her hands on Chloe's hips and captured her lips between hers. Caught by surprise Chloe stumbled backwards making her back hit the door but she responded the kiss right away.
They broke the kiss with Beca biting and pulling Chloe's lower lip, and a moan escaping Chloe's opened mouth.
"Let's not waste any more time." Chloe said pulling Beca inside the house.
