Chapter 24: With Your Permission
Chloe lay in Beca's arms that night, crying her eyes out as she thought of her father. A million thoughts raced through her mind and she continued to sob as Beca rocked her back and forth. She could hardly breathe and she knew she was probably waking up the rest of the people in their apartment building with her cries. "He can't die, he just can't." She repeated a few times.
Beca didn't know what to say. She wished she could tell Chloe that her father wasn't going to die. She wished she could tell Chloe that her father was strong enough to beat the cancer. She wished she didn't have to see Chloe so upset. Beca didn't want to lie to Chloe, either, so she continued to stay silent. She kissed the side of Chloe's head, rocking her back and forth slowly in her arms.
"Tell me this isn't happening. Tell me I imagined that phone call and it wasn't real." Chloe sobbed, even though she knew there was no escaping the inevitable truth. "I can't breathe." She mumbled, incapable of stopping the tears that seemed to be never ending, and they were giving her an incredibly painful migraine.
"Chlo, I know you're in a lot of pain right now, and nothing I say is going to ease this pain because I can't relate to what you're going through, but my best advice would be to just try to calm down and take deep breaths. Can you do that for me?" Beca said in a gentle and persuasive voice. Chloe listened to Beca and tried to take some deep breaths, eventually calming her breathing down to a normal pace.
"Why do bad things happen to good people?" Chloe asked absentmindedly.
"I don't know, Chlo. I wish I knew the answer to that," Beca replied, running her fingers through the redhead's hair. "All I know is that we have to stay strong and help each other through this. I'm going to be here for you through it all. I can promise you that."
"Fuck cancer," Chloe stated before wiping a couple of her tears. "Fuck cancer, I hate it." She added, blowing her nose in the facial tissue.
"I hate it too, baby. I hate it too. Now let's try to get some sleep. It's going to be a long week," Beca said, turning off the lamp on the bedside table. "I love you, Chloe. I always will," she whispered.
Over the next few weeks, Chloe wasn't the same, she just couldn't get over the fact that her father wasn't going to outlive cancer. This fact didn't distract her from her job or her daily routines, but at night every now and then she would have nightmares of being at her father's funeral or watching him slowly die in front of her in a hospital bed. All that aside, it was easy to tell Chloe wasn't herself.
One thing the redhead did a lot more was FaceTime her parents to talk to her dad as much as she could, knowing that his time could come at any minute and she wanted to talk to him as much as she could.
Beca knew that as much as FaceTime helped, it couldn't compare to Chloe seeing her parents in person, so Beca went ahead and bought them tickets for a flight to Tampa. Chloe was finishing a FaceTime call with her parents when Beca brought out the suitcases and began packing. "We're going to Tampa. I already got tickets for us," she said.
"Wait what? When are we going?" Chloe said both surprised and excited. She put down her phone on the bedside table and continued to pet Barden as he lay down on the bed.
"Our flight is on Wednesday," Beca said, showing Chloe the tickets. Beca finished packing up her suitcase then sat on the bed, laying down next to Chloe. "I know that all of this is really stressful for you, so please talk to me if you need to," she said in a soft voice.
"You being here with me is all I need right now, being able to see my father on Wednesday has lowered my stress level a little bit. So thank you." Chloe said, smiling and leaning to peck Beca's lips sweetly.
Beca smiled and kissed back, lingering on her lips. "I would do anything just to make you happy," she murmured, pulling away from the kiss.
"And I hope you know that I'd do the same for you." Chloe whispered back, pressing their lips together again for a short moment. That Wednesday the two of them boarded a plane to Tampa, Florida. Chloe sat there nervously tapping her foot against the floor of their first class seats.
"What am I going to do when I see him Becs? It's going to be so hard to see him like this." Chloe said as she took a sip of water. They got off the plane and made their way to an Uber station.
"Do you want me to come with you or to stay out here? I just want you to be comfortable when you see your dad. I know this is going to be really hard for you," Beca said, reassuringly squeezing Chloe's hand.
"I want you there, otherwise I won't be able to make it through." Chloe stated, squeezing Beca's hand back.
Beca smiled and kissed Chloe's cheek. "Alright, baby. I'll be there with you," she promised her. The Uber pulled up to the curb and they put their luggage in the trunk before giving the driver directions to the hospital Richard was staying at. Chloe looked around her hometown, smiling at some of the palm trees and the sunny Florida weather. Once they reached the hospital and paid the driver, Chloe took a few deep breaths, heading inside with Beca's hand laced in hers.
They went up the elevator and were soon standing outside the door to Richard's hospital room. Beca squeezed Chloe's hand. "It's going to be okay, Chlo," she murmured to the redhead before taking a deep breath and opening the door. Chloe stood there blankly for a moment, trying to gather her emotions and stay strong.
Once the two of them walked in they were greeted by Chloe's mother. She gave Chloe a gentle yet strong hug and whispered, "I'm glad you're here sweetie." She said. Blaine was there with his wife Carly. He walked over and hugged Chloe after his mother let go. Kelly walked over to Beca.
"Thank you for coming here, it means a lot that you two are here right now." Kelly said, thanking Beca by holding her hand and then giving her a hug.
"How is he?" Beca asked, looking at a sleeping Richard in the hospital bed with concern.
"Well he's doing okay, he's just resting. The tumor is still very small right now, so hopefully he still has a long time ahead of him." Kelly stated. Chloe had walked up to the bed and held his hand. "They're doing everything they can to reduce the growth speed of the tumor, so fingers crossed." She said.
A few hours later, Richard woke up. Beca smiled and stepped back while Chloe, Blaine, and Kelly talked with Richard for a few minutes. Beca pulled Blaine aside for a moment while Chloe was talking to her father. "I need you to distract Chloe for a while. I have to talk to your father about something important."
"Okay, what do you need to talk to my dad about that involves distracting Chloe?" He asked, making sure to keep his voice down so Chloe didn't hear.
"I'm going to ask for your father's blessing because I want to ask Chloe to marry me," Beca whispered back with a smile.
"Good for you, that is awesome Beca. When did you decide on this?" He asked keeping his voice down.
"About three months ago, after Chloe and I attended the wedding of two close friends. Richard told me that he wanted me to ask for his blessing, so I figured that I would ask now since we're out here," Beca told him.
"Well I wish you the best. You make my sister happy and as far as I'm concerned that's the most important thing." Blaine said, patting Beca on the back. About ten minutes later Blaine went up to his sister, mother and father to help Beca with her plan. "Hey guys, why don't we go get some food I'm starving. Beca will stay here and keep dad company."
Chloe, Carly, and Kelly all looked at each other. "I could use something to eat." Chloe said.
"Yeah I'll second that. Let's go." Carly said, and Blaine managed to clear the room out for Beca's convenience. Soon it was just Richard and Beca.
"How are you doing Beca?" Richard asked politely with a smile on his face. "I haven't been able to talk to you yet. How's life treating you?"
"I'm great, Richard. I'm really happy with my life right now. Work is going well, and I get to come home every night to the most amazing girlfriend," Beca said with a smile. She then got a serious expression on her face. "There's something important that I need to ask you."
"And what is that Beca? You can ask me anything." He said smiling his gentle smile, which was very similar to Chloe's.
"As you probably know by now, Mr. Beale, Chloe means the world to me and I would do anything for her. I love her more than I've ever loved anyone else, and I want to make sure that she stays in my life forever. So, with your permission, I wanted to ask if I could propose to Chloe," Beca said, a small smile on her face. A moment of silence took place between the two of them. At first Beca thought it was a bad sign but then a smile and a few tears of joy made their way onto Richard Beale's face.
"I couldn't imagine a better future for my daughter," he said taking Beca's hand. "I hope that you are true to her, and that you keep on making her as happy as you do now; take care of her for me, because as you can see I can't really do that anymore. Beca Mitchell, you have my blessing to ask Chloe to marry you." He said, taking her hand.
Beca smiled and shook Richard's hand. "Thank you so much, Mr. Beale. You have no idea how much this means to me. I promise I'll do everything I can to make Chloe happy," Beca promised with a smile and a few happy tears.
"I just hope I'm there to see you two get married." He said smiling and wiping his own tears. Chloe walked back in with Carly and Blaine and Kelly.
"Is everything okay?" Kelly asked when she saw tears in both Richard and Beca's eyes.
"Oh yes darling." Richard said with a chuckle. "Beca just told me a very funny story about her first time riding a bike." He said, covering up the proposal plans like a professional. Chloe chuckled and then looked at Beca, who had a big smile on her face.
Beca smiled at Chloe and stood up, walking over to her and kissing her lips softly. "I love you," she whispered, smiling and embracing her girlfriend tightly. Chloe was a bit taken by surprise when Beca kissed her in front of everyone, she knew the younger woman wasn't the biggest fan of PDA. But this didn't stop Chloe from kissing her back.
"I love you too," She whispered back, smiling at Beca. Something seemed different, like there was this new found confidence in Beca, and Chloe couldn't help but love it.
Later that night, Beca was texting all of the Bellas about planning the proposal. She didn't know what she was going to do yet, but just the thought of proposing to the love of her life made her smile. Beca looked up when she heard footsteps, and smiled when Chloe walked in the room. "Hey baby."
"Hey," Chloe said smiling as she walked into her room in her parents house. "You seem really happy today, I really like that. I need an upbeat attitude at a time like this." Chloe sat next Beca on the bed and smiled. "Thank you for that."
Beca smiled and kissed Chloe's cheek. "I figured that you needed something to be happy about, so I thought I would try to make you happy. I hope it's helping," the brunette murmured, turning Chloe's head towards her with her finger and kissing her lips gently.
"Mmmm, those gentle kisses are helping a lot." Chloe said smiling as they pulled back. She really enjoyed this side of Beca, the woman seemed more open and telling of her feelings. And Chloe was really happy about it.
Beca smiled and took Chloe's hands in hers. "I love you so much, Chlo. You're my happiness, my light. You're my forever and always," she told the redhead before pecking her lips again.
"I can say the same to you. I love you so much baby." Chloe whispered before laying her head on Beca's chest. "And I can't even begin to tell you how much I love you."
Beca smiled and pulled a blanket over them, her arms around Chloe's waist and holding her close. "Goodnight, baby," she murmured, pecking Chloe's lips before turning off the light and closing her eyes.
They stayed in Tampa for a week or so, spending time with Richard at the hospital and also exploring parts of Chloe's hometown. "I have to take you to this one taco place babe, I swear you're about to taste the best tacos you've ever tasted. Including Taco Bell." Chloe added.
Beca raised her eyebrow skeptically. "Really? Well, now you do have to take me to this taco place. I want to see if it can live up to the hype and reputation that you've given it," Beca replied. Chloe smiled and took a left turn in her mother's Prius and headed towards the famous Tampa Taco Truck.
"Ah, here we are." Chloe said with a smile.
"This place really is amazing, Beca." Blaine said as they hopped out the car.
"You two better be telling the truth. I'd hate to think that you wasted my precious time in which I could have been at Taco Bell," Beca said with a chuckle, closing her door before she started to walk towards the food truck. Blaine wrapped his arm around Carly and they four of them walked up to the taco truck and took their order. While they waited they sat down at one of the small round tables that sat in front of the truck covered in shade.
"Ah, I haven't eaten here in so long." Chloe said smiling widely.
"Neither have I. I remember when we used to come here on the weekends when we were teenagers," Blaine said with a smile. Beca sat back and listened to the conversation, occasionally smiling at Chloe. When their food was ready, Beca went up to the truck and grabbed it, bringing it back to the table and giving each person their order. Beca sat back down in her chair, taking a bite of her taco. The other three waited to hear Beca's verdict. Chloe took a sip of the lemonade she had gotten with her lunch.
"Well? What do you think babe?" Chloe asked smiling at her girlfriend.
Beca finished the first bite of her taco and washed it down with her glass of water, thinking for a few minutes to create suspense. "I'd give it a solid eight out of ten. Still not good enough to beat Taco Bell, though," she told the others at the table.
"Oh come on!" Blaine said, laughing. "You know it's better than Taco Bell." He said chuckling before taking a bite of his own taco. Chloe raised her eyebrows and laughed. "Taco Bell can't even compare to an authentic Mexican food truck."
Beca shrugged her shoulders and chuckled. "You guys know how much I love my Taco Bell. Are you really that surprised?" She said. Chloe chuckled and rolled her eyes playfully at her girlfriend.
"Well Blaine, it can still be the best tacos on earth to us." Carly stated. Chloe took a bite of one of her tacos and then took a sip of water.
"I will say that it's some of the best food I've ever gotten from a food truck. It's just that nothing can beat Taco Bell," Beca said, finishing her taco before taking a sip of her water.
Chloe smiled and kissed Beca's cheek before they all got to eating their tacos. Afterwards they went to the local zoo and looked around.
As soon as they stepped foot in the zoo, Beca made a beeline for the red panda exhibit, leaving the other three behind in the dust. When she neared the exhibit, the brunette pushed people out of the way, even a few children, and pressed her face up to the glass. "Oh my god, they're so cute!" She squealed.
"Oh my god Beca, you may be close to their height but you can't push little kids around." Chloe said catching up to her, chuckling when she saw the playful scowl on Beca's face. She then looked at the red pandas. "They are really cute though."
"I know! They are so cute!" Beca said again, watching the animals' every move. After they had been at the exhibit for a little over ten minutes, Beca had to be physically removed or else she would have tried to stay there for the rest of the afternoon. "Come on! Why can't we stay here?"
"We should see a few more animals before we head to get dinner for my mother." Chloe said smiling and taking Beca's hand and kissing it.
Beca groaned, turning her head to get one last look at the red pandas before they moved onto the next exhibit. "Can we come back again before we leave? Please?" Beca said, pouting her lip and doing her best impression of Chloe's puppy eyes.
"You do know there's a red panda exhibit in the LA zoo right babe?" She asked with a smile. She tucked Beca's hair behind her ear and said, "How about this? We leave tomorrow around two in the afternoon, why don't we come here tomorrow and eat lunch at the red panda exhibit before we leave?" She suggested.
Beca smiled and pecked Chloe's cheek. "That would be perfect, baby. Thank you," she murmured back, pecking her cheek once again as they continued walking throughout the zoo. Chloe leaned in and kissed Beca lips, smiling when she pulled back. Their kiss got a couple of whistles from some boys who looked to be like they were college.
"Damn, girl on girl action." One of the guys said. "I wish my girlfriend would do that for me. Where are your boyfriends, girls? I need some advice on how to get mine to make out with other girls for me." Chloe just ignored him and the other guys laughing, she held Beca's hand and continued to walk by. Chloe felt Beca's hand tighten in hers.
"Don't let them bother you, babe." Chloe said.
Beca turned around and glared at the guys for another moment before sighing. "You're right," she said, letting her hand relax again, "The last thing I need to do is beat up a few college kids for saying something stupid."
"Besides, we are Bechloe. There's no hotter couple than us." Chloe whispered before stopping Beca and leaning in to kiss her lips slowly yet sensually.
Beca smirked and put her hands on Chloe's hips, leaning into the kiss a little more. The group of boys whistled again, and this time Beca broke the kiss and flipped them off before reconnecting their lips. Chloe wrapped her arms around Beca's neck and smiled, kissing her back and running her hands through Beca's perfect brown hair. After the zoo they went and bought some dinner to bring back to their house since father was on bed rest.
"We brought some Italian dad! Your favorite!" Chloe said smiling once they arrived back at her parents house.
Beca went into the kitchen and grabbed a plate and a tray, putting the food on the plate and carrying the tray up to Richard's room. "Here you go, Mr. Beale," the brunette said when she walked in the room, letting Richard sit up before she set the tray down. "Let me know if you need anything else," she said, smiling at him before leaving the room.
Chloe watched on as Beca brought the food over to her father, Chloe smiled gently, feeling her heart beating a bit faster. Beca was so good with her father, so kind and gentle. When Beca got back to eat her food, Chloe pulled her into a sweet kiss.
Beca was a bit surprised by Chloe's sudden move, but she quickly recovered and kissed her girlfriend back for a few seconds. "What was that for?" She asked, breaking the kiss and smiling softly. Chloe just stood there and smiled at Beca, so happy to have her in her life.
"Nothing," Chloe said simply. "I just really love you is all." She added before pecking Beca's lips one more time before they sat down to eat.
Beca intertwined her fingers with Chloe's as they ate their dinner. Beca looked up from her pasta and smiled. "I really love you too," she said, smiling and gently squeezing Chloe's hand before turning her attention back to her plate. After dinner Chloe decided to shower and then she went into her father's room to spend some time with him before she and Beca left to head back to LA.
"How are you doing dad?" She asked, taking his hand and kissing it gently as she awaited her father's answer.
"I'm doing alright, although I could be better," Richard said with a laugh. Much like his daughter, he was always able to keep up his spirit and the spirits of those around him. "How have things been with you and Beca? I talked to her yesterday and she seems really happy," he said, smiling at his daughter.
"Things with Beca really are incredible dad, I love her with all my heart." Chloe said, smiling back at him. "She's the only person besides you that can make me happy when I'm sad. I couldn't picture life without her." Chloe said, smiling as she thought of Beca.
Richard smiled at Chloe's response. "That's great, sweetie. I'm so glad that you've found someone as caring as Beca is. That being said, I hope you both know that I will not hesitate to make her life miserable if she hurts you again. And bedrest isn't going to stop me," Richard said with a chuckle.
"She won't hurt me dad, I know she won't. And I think you know that too." Chloe said chuckling along with her father. She then leaned over and kissed his forehead. "I love you dad, get some rest."
Beca was in the basement packing up their stuff into their suitcases when Chloe walked in the room. Beca smiled and closed her suitcase before she walked over to her and pecked her lips. "Hey, Chlo," she murmured.
"Hi babe," Chloe responded. They stayed there a moment and just hugged each other in silence. "My dad really likes and cares about you." She whispered as they held each other.
A small smile made its way onto Beca's face. "You're really lucky to have a guy like him as your father. He's so strong and caring and kind," Beca replied, rubbing circles into Chloe's back.
"I am lucky to have him." She said smiling and pulling back from the hug. "I love him, he's always been there for me. I don't know how I'm going to feel if I don't have him there anymore. This is supposed to happen way down the road. Not when I'm only twenty-seven years old." She said looking down.
Beca lifted Chloe's chin up with her finger. "He's a fighter, Chlo. I know he's going to do everything he can to fight this cancer for as long as possible. And I know the doctors have labelled it terminal, but he's a fighter, and he's not going to give up," Beca told her reassuringly. Chloe leaned in and pressed their foreheads together.
"What would I do without you Beca?" She said softly, holding Beca's hands in hers while she took a few deep breaths.
"I'm sure you could manage without me," Beca replied with a chuckle, "You're one of the strongest people I know."
"You make me complete, without you there's such a vital part of me missing." Chloe said gazing fondly into Beca's eyes. "I love you Beca, more than anything and I'm so lucky to have you in my life." She whispered.
Beca smiled and kissed Chloe's lips. "The same goes from me to you," she murmured as their lips parted. "I already packed up our stuff, so I'm ready to go when you are."
"Well our flight leaves tomorrow at noon and you said you wanted to see the red panda exhibit one more time. Is that still the case?" She asked as they got under the covers.
Beca nodded her head and smiled sheepishly. "God, I act like such a child sometimes," she said with a laugh, "I hope you don't mind."
"I love you so much, and I don't mind." Chloe said before spooning Beca and kissing her cheek.
Beca smiled and turned her head, smiling and pecking Chloe's lips before turning back around. "Goodnight, Chlo. I love you too," she whispered before falling asleep in her girlfriend's arms. The next day the girls flew back to LA and got back to the apartment, and Chloe laughed when Barden came running up to greet them.
"Hey boy! I know we were gone so long." Chloe said getting down on her knees to pet and play with their adorable puppy.
Beca smiled and unpacked their stuff before going back out and sitting on the couch. "You two are so adorable," she said, shaking her head and chuckling as Barden licked Chloe's face. Chloe smirked and then looked at Beca.
"You're really adorable when you want to be-" Chloe started.
Beca glared at the redhead. "Nope. Beca Mitchell is not adorable. Beca Mitchell is a badass, but not adorable." Chloe raised an eyebrow and stood up, looking into Beca's eyes. She then grabbed Beca's hips and slowly pushed Beca to the wall.
"If you had let me finish, I would've said that you're the most sexy badass in the world." She said softly, pinning her girlfriend to the wall.
A small smirk tugged at the corner of Beca's mouth. "And what are you doing now?" She asked, raising her eyebrow playfully.
A soft bite on Beca's neck from Chloe's teeth happened not a second after Beca finished talking. "What does it feel like I'm doing?" She whispered, licking over the bite mark she had just left. "I'm thanking you for how supportive you've been of me over the last few weeks." Chloe then left soft love bites over Beca's skin. "How about a hot and steamy makeout session before dinner?"
Beca smiled and pressed her lips to Chloe's in a gentle but passionate kiss. "I can make some time for a makeout session with my gorgeous girlfriend," she murmured back, cupping Chloe's face in her hands and connecting their lips again, this kiss a little more desperate than the last. A shudder of fluttering butterfly wings made their way into Chloe's stomach as Beca kissed her, she felt a wave of love flow through her veins. Her hands traveled lower, stopping at Beca's hips and keeping her against the wall for a moment.
"Do you know how absolutely perfect you are to me?" Chloe muttered in between a kiss. "Everything you do just takes my breath away." Her lips then met Beca's again in a searing kiss.
Beca smiled softly at Chloe's words. "You're perfect to me too, baby. Everything about you is so perfect. Your smile, your laugh, your voice. Everything is perfect," Beca told her after breaking the kiss. She stood there and smiled, gazing into Chloe's blue eyes. "I love you, and I'm never going to get tired of being able to say that, because I'm never going to stop loving you," she whispered. Chloe picked Beca up and wrapped her legs around her own waist before carrying Beca over to the couch to continue their little makeout session. Chloe lay Beca down and straddled her.
"To be clear, this is just a makeout session, I need a week or so after that visit of my dad to be fully in the right mood. If that's okay with you." She said, tucking some of her ginger hair back.
"Of course that's okay with me, baby. I never want you to feel pressured into doing anything," Beca said sincerely, smiling up at her girlfriend. Chloe smiled back and then leaned down to kiss Beca gently. The kiss quickly became more heated and lustful, Chloe's hands went down to Beca's legs and she softly stroked up and down Beca's thighs, caressing them sensually.
"You're so damn hot." Chloe whispered, moving her lips to Beca's neck as her hands continued their motions.
Beca let out a low moan, closing her eyes and biting her lip. "Chlo, as much as this feels good, I think we should stop," Beca murmured softly. Chloe's lips continued to move up and down Beca's neck.
"What's wrong babe?" She whispered, softly grinding her hips against Beca's, knowing her girlfriend enjoyed that during a makeout session. Chloe knew she was getting Beca worked up. "Is everything okay?" She whispered, nibbling Beca's neck and moaning against Beca's skin.
"Fuck," Beca muttered under her breath, resisting the urge to moan softly. "Everything's fine. It's just that you're really turning me on, and I don't want to be left high and dry as they say," she muttered. Chloe pulled back and smirked at Beca, before putting on an innocent look.
"Oh I'm sorry babe, I didn't know I was getting you so worked up." She whispered, kissing down to Beca's neck before slowly stopping at her lips, catching them in a gentle kiss. "We can stop if you want."
Beca smiled softly and pecked Chloe's lips. "It's alright, Chlo," she murmured, pulling away from the kiss and smiling at the redhead. "Do you want me to help you with dinner?"
"Sure babe, I'd love that." She said as they got up from the couch to go start cooking dinner. Chloe made some parmesan chicken with rice, and Beca made some salad and cut up some strawberries. Chloe put the chicken in the oven and let it cook.
After cutting up the strawberries and putting the salad aside, Beca stepped back and watched Chloe as she continued to cook. "I like watching you cook, if you haven't noticed," Beca said. Chloe turned and smiled at Beca before turning back around and stirring the rice, adding a few spices.
"I like it when you watch me cook," she answered before checking on the chicken. A cute smile appeared on Chloe's face when she felt Beca's arms wrap around her waist.
Beca closed her eyes and rested her chin on Chloe's shoulder, holding her close. "Have I ever told you how much I love you?" She murmured, turning her head and pressing a soft kiss behind her ear.
"You have but I never tire of hearing it." Chloe stated while she continued to stir the rice and relax in Beca's warm embrace. "I love hearing about the way you feel about me." She muttered, enjoying Beca's soft lips on her weak spot.
"I love being able to tell you how I feel about you," Beca replied, kissing Chloe's neck again. "Before I met you, I felt so lost. When I found you, I didn't just find my soulmate, but I also found myself in the process."
"I'm so grateful that I helped you find yourself, because you did the same for me." Chloe said smiling widely and kissing Beca on cheek before continuing her cooking. Beca smiled and stepped back so Chloe could finish making the dinner. Beca set the table with silverware and got drinks for them before helping Chloe set out the food.
As they sat down to dinner, Beca smiled at the redhead across from her. She could picture herself sitting down at a table in their first house, and maybe even with a few kids running around in the future. She had never been able to picture a future with anyone like she pictured her future with Chloe, and Beca knew that no matter what, they were always going to be there for each other, and that made her smile.
Ooooo, Beca is planning to propose to Chloe! What does she have planned and will Chloe say yes? Tell us what you thought! We really hope that you guys are enjoying the story!
Until next time,
