AN: What started out as a joke suddenly took a turn into a different direction.

Not sure who made the comment on tumblr but I dont care xD

I blame Rejection_isnt_failure for everything xP (lubs ya..)

Beca Mitchel only had a few things she enjoyed doing. Making music, be it mashups or originals, it didn't matter to the brunette. She loved doing both.

She also loved reading, something not a lot of people knew or expected of her. She especially loved reading on the bed that she shared with her roommate and secret crush, Chloe Beale.

And what she loved above all was reading when Chloe happened to walk out of the shower, into their 'bedroom' (which was just one big open space) and got dressed right in front of her.

It was a guilty pleasure, really.. One she wasn't particularly proud of but secretly enjoyed it nonetheless. After all, how else would she ever enjoy the godly sight that is naked Chloe Beale? She felt embarrassed about the entire thing, after all, she wasn't supposed to be enjoying the sight of her best friend's naked body. Or have dreams about her best friend that would instantly cause her cheeks to flush with a familiar heat.

Jesus.. get a grip Mitchel… Beca let out a shuddering sigh, trying to calm her racing heart. She heard Chloe turn off the water not long ago and felt her heart skip when Chloe's footsteps got closer. She dropped her phone, picked up the open book that laid on her lap and held it in front of her.

"Hey." Chloe breathed, her voice tired from studying and her internship at the local shelter. "Interesting book you got there Bec." Chloe said and a slight giggle followed.

"Uh, yeah." Beca said, lowering the book enough for her eyes to graze Chloe's naked but very familiar curves. Oh fuck.. She swallowed hard when her eyes fell on the curve of Chloe's ass, which was to die for. "Y-yeah it's uh.. new, I got it recently.." She said, cursing at the instability of her own voice.

"Mhn.. seems like it, don't think I've seen this one yet. Perhaps I should give it a try." Chloe's voice sounded far more amused than usual, perhaps Beca was too distracted by Chloe's breasts to notice or care. Probably the latter.

"Yeah…" Beca said and she hated the fact she was nearly drooling.

Beca snuck several more peeks while Chloe slowly dressed, as if taking more time than she usually did. As if, it was probably false hope created by Beca's evil brain to trick her into thinking that Chloe would ever feel the same way about her. Still, she couldn't help it, somewhere deeply hidden inside of the brunette was the ever lasting hope that Chloe, one day, would realize how madly in love she was with Beca.

Beca knew this would never happen, surely Beca would have noticed any signs by now. (Of course not…)

"So, what's your favorite position then..?" Chloe asked suddenly, taking the brush from her nightstand and crawled onto the bed. The older woman had settled for a buttoned up shirt and shorts to match.

Instead of settling next to Beca, which the redhead usually did, she crawled towards her friend instead.

Beca blinked, confusion clear on her face and the book still in her hands. "Wha..? Position..? I mean.. At the top? Doesn't everyone like that?" The hell is this weirdo getting at..? Oh god.. Why is she so fucking sexy.. She watched the redhead come closer and closer.. She gulped, still holding desperately onto the book, her eyes locked with Icy blue ones.

Chloe couldn't stop the chuckle that followed. "I don't know Bec, some people like the bottom.." She said, the tone in her voice had changed from playful to something Beca couldn't place, but it made her heart skip a beat nonetheless.

"Also.." Chloe started, sitting down on the bed, right in front of Beca with her legs tucked under her body. She grabbed Beca's book carefully, a playful smile on her lips while she watched her friend swallow thickly. She turned the book around before placing it back in Beca's hands. "I think holding the book upside down makes it hard to read.. Then again." Her gaze lowered to the cover of the book that Beca held towards her. "With the kind of book you're reading, holding it upside down might actually be better."

Beca nearly smelted into a puddle right there and then, up until the comment about the kind of book she was reading. "W-what..?" She said slightly shocked and closed the book to check the cover. Her eyes grew wide in horror when she read the title: 'Kamasutra and you, uncover your favorite position.' The actual image on the cover were two people in a position that left nothing to one's imagination.

Beca just stared at the cover in shock, then at Chloe, back at the cover. This went on for a few times more before she settled her gaze on Chloe's, to her own surprise, amused smile.

Beca's mouth slightly open, her cheeks flushed a deep shade of red and her brain trying to think of something, ANYTHING, to get her out of this mess. Unfortunately for Beca, her brain had left the chat, trying desperately to reboot itself. She was giving Chloe her best fish on dryland expression, lips moving but no sound.

Words Beca! Use them! What the actual fuck are you doing?!

Her inner monologue was yelling at her, rightfully so if she might add. There was no saving herself from this one.

"I… uh… I… like… wasn't…" She tried once she found her voice again, heart hammering in her chest.

"You know," Chloe started again, taking the book once again from Beca's hands and gently tossed it on Beca's nightstand. "If you want to look at me.. You can just, look at me, Beca." Her voice was warm, soft and those icy blue eyes so incredibly inviting while she spoke. Every damn word seemed like an invitation to kiss Chloe. (It was..)

Beca was about to answer, or at least try to without looking like a fish, when Chloe gently pushed Beca backwards. Her hand was placed on Beca's chest, right below her neck and above her breasts. Chloe pushed till the brunette was resting comfortably against the pillows behind her.

Oh dear god… Beca's throat felt dry, like she swallowed a bucket full of sand while she watched Chloe straddle her legs.

The redhead was biting her lower lip playfully, winking down at the woman underneath her while she got comfortable. "Is this okay..?" She asked, wondering if her weight was uncomfortable for Beca or not. She smiled when all Beca could do was nod her head. "Good.." She said and brought both her hands to the top of her shirt, opening it ever so slowly.

Beca could feel her body heat rise to dangerous levels, eyes wide in shock and her heart was beating so incredibly fast she thought it would burst. Her chest rising and falling quickly while more and more of Chloe's skin was exposed to her eyes.

Chloe's shirt hung open once the last button was done for, exposing her amazing looking abs. Never in her life had Beca ever thought she'd be happy with Chloe's morning routine and her desire to go to the gym. But damn did she gain more appreciation for Chloe's dedication. She had always admired the redhead's body, her curves as well as her muscles. Never did she have the chance however, to appreciate them up close. While the woman of her dreams was actually sitting comfortably on her lap like it was a regular Friday night.

Beca couldn't believe her own eyes and her hands rested on her own stomach, too afraid to move them in case she indeed was dreaming. Cause if that was the case, she did NOT want to wake up!

"You like it..?" Chloe asked and opened her shirt further, exposing her bare chest to the younger woman underneath her. She smiled softly when she saw Beca swallow thickly again. She let her shirt slide down her arms until the fabric was pooled around her waist. She watched Beca take a shuddering breath, those dark blue, stormy eyes she loved so much were sliding over her body.

"I.. you.." Beca started, hardly able to form words, let alone complete and full sentences. She wanted to say something, wanted to let Chloe know how breathtakingly beautiful she was. For a short few seconds, she closed her eyes, calming herself somewhat, at least enough to form a few words that, hopefully, would make sense. "You're beautiful.." She breathed after she opened her eyes again.

Jesus.. That wasn't so hard was it? Yes, yes it was..

Chloe's eyes widened and a faint blush now crawled onto her cheeks from the unexpected compliment. Chloe knew she had a fit figure, she did consider herself semi 'hot' and loved the attention she received. But with Beca, it seemed different but in the best of ways possible. She had expected something polite from the brunette, but more in ways of saying 'yeah you're hot dude' or something like that. That's what she usually heard people say when they'd compliment her. This, however, the compliment she got from Beca felt so different, so genuine it made her heart ache with love.

Chloe smiled faintly, taking Beca's hand in her own and squeezed gently. "Really..? I mean.." She was lost for words, which, like, never happened to her before.

Beca frowned slightly, worry seeping into her heart. "Well, of course! I mean.. Jesus, Beale.. Look at you… you're drop dead gorgeous." Beca said genuinely and feeling somewhat braver, she moved her own hands to Chloe's hips to pull the woman closer. Like she wanted to put more power behind her own words by acting on them, showing Chloe that her words were true. How dare you not believe me, I'll show you.. To this, both their cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red. (if that was even possible for Beca by now)

Chloe now straddled Beca's hips and for the first time in her entire life, Chloe felt shy. This all started out as a little joke, after all, she knew full well Beca was checking her out after the first few times. Especially when Beca held the book upside down. Which was far more often than she'd probably ever want to admit. However, the kamasutra book was new (and probably belonged to Amy anyway) she couldn't help but tease her best friend and secret crush a bit. Things had gotten a bit out of hand and now she was straddling Beca's hips while the hands of the brunette were resting gently onto Chloe's.

She had no idea what to do with her hands anymore now that Beca's were resting someplace else. So instead, Chloe placed hers on Beca's shoulders right where her neck and shoulders connected.

She looked down at Beca again, who was still admiring her body. Chloe bit her lip anxiously. Should I.. I mean.. "W-would.. you like to.. Touch..?" Chloe finally managed to whisper, her voice soft.

She felt Beca freeze and regretted asking the question, wishing to god she could take it back. Up until Beca looked up at her, there was no disgust in her eyes, it was completely the opposite.

Dark blue eyes wide with a sparkle Chloe had never seen before but found it utterly adorable nonetheless. She watched Beca do her fish expression for a few short seconds, letting out a soft giggle in the process. It apparently snapped Beca out of her fishy state, enough to clear her throat and gather herself enough to form some words along with a reaction.

"I.. really..? You-you don't.. mind?" She swallowed, her throat still felt dry and her voice was cracking far more than she'd liked. It only took a small nod from the redhead before Beca's hands moved from Chloe's hips, all the way up to cup her face. Slim fingers placed delicately on Chloe's jaw, like she was made of glass and Beca was scared to break her if she made a wrong move.

If the older woman was honest, she was surprised but the gentle way that Beca placed her hands made her breath hitch. The blush on her cheeks darkened slightly when Beca's soft hands slowly made their way down. Coming to rest on her throat and the pulsepoint of her neck. She was sure that Beca could feel how frantically her heart was beating but the petite brunette didn't say anything.

"You're so soft…" Beca whispered, eyes on her own hands while she slowly moved them from Chloe's neck to her shoulders. Giving the firm muscles underneath a gentle squeeze. "Soft, but hard.. strong." Beca continued, letting out a shaky breath. Her hands slid down Chloe's chest and the older woman expected the brunette to cup her breasts, like many had done before her.

To her own surprise, Beca didn't and moved her hands between the valley of her breasts instead, palms flat on her skin. It felt like they left a trail of scorching heat in their wake, leaving her all tingly and weak.

Chloe was glad she was sitting down, her knees would've given out from under her otherwise. The redhead swallowed thickly and let out a soft whimper when the fingers of Beca's right hand brushed ever so gently against the lower part of her breast. Oh fuck..

It was hardly audible, but Beca had heard it nonetheless. She looked up at her friend, worry in her eyes when they locked with icy ones. "You okay..?" She asked and stilled her hands on Chloe's ribs, her thumbs resting below her breasts.

There was such genuine warmth in those dark blue, stormy eyes, such kindness and genuine worry. It made her heart ache for something she knew she'd never have. Chloe was in love with Beca, for many, many years now. The way the petite woman was touching her, how gentle and tender her caresses were, it's something Chloe had always yearned for.

Sure, she'd been touched by other people, more people she'd ever want to admit too perhaps. Because Chloe enjoyed incimacy, she enjoyed sex and those things usually came together. Usually.

The men she slept with generally wanted just one thing from her. Strip her naked, fuck and get the redhead out the door before she could fall asleep. After every sexual encounter, Chloe felt empty inside. Like there was a massive gap in her heart that she tried to fill with as many sexual partners as she could, but none who could ever fill that void. Fill the hole in her heart, the missing piece of the puzzle to finally complete her.

The only times she felt whole, the only times where she felt complete were the moments of intimacy she shared with Beca. Beca, the very woman who was the raincloud to her sunshine, if she should believe the other Bellas at least.

She'd been there for the DJ ever since they met, supporting her, believing in her when she didn't even believe in herself.

In return, Beca was there for her too. Giving her comfort, reassurance and intimacy up to a certain level. Beca would fill that hole in her heart but it would only last for so long, because Beca wasn't hers.

She took a shuddering breath and watched when Beca's hands once again cupped her face. Brushing away tears she didn't even realize had escaped.

"Oh my god, Chlo, what's wrong?" Beca asked, the worry on her face seeped into her voice. "Am I making you uncomfortable? I'm sorry, I didn't mean-"

"No.." Chloe closed her eyes, shaking her head slightly and covered Beca's hands with her own. "No.. you.. You're just.." God this is hard.. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "You're so gentle.. with me." She finally said and there was a slightly frown showing on Beca's features.

"Well yeah, of course." She stated, she gently pulled her hands back to pull up Chloe's shirt, somewhat covering her friend back up. "Chlo.. you mean the world to me.." She whispered, straightening the fabric once she hung it loosely over Chloe's shoulders, covering her chest somewhat. I really don't need those distracting me right now.. She thought and took a deep breath in an attempt to calm her racing heart.

She looked back up at the older woman, smiling warmly, reassuringly up at her. She placed her hands back on Chloe's jaw and for a very short moment, Chloe thought Beca would kiss her.

"Chlo.. you're my friend. My best friend. My person, the person I turn to when I feel like the world is crashing down on me and I need someone to pull me away from it all. You're the only one I trust.. You're the only one who..- who I.." She licked her lips, wishing to god she was brave enough to actually speak her mind. "I care so, so much about you.. I-I..-" She shook her head, tears blurring her vision. She couldn't look up, instead she snuck her arms around Chloe's body, holding her close while her head was resting on her friend's shoulder.

"Beca.. what-"

"I love you." Beca blurted out. Oh god, what did I do..

Chloe stiffened and she stopped breathing, slowly letting the words sink in. "W-what..? What did.. Did you say?" She tried to peel the brunette away from her body, wanting to look her in the eye. "Beca.. please look at me.."

Beca waited a little while longer, taking a deep breath before she reluctantly pulled away from her best friend. She didn't want to look at Chloe and see rejection in her eyes, something she knew would happen if she'd ever tell Chloe how she truly felt.

Beca felt two hands cup her face and forced her to look up. "Please open your eyes, Bec.. please.. I… can you.. Just repeat what you said." Chloe wasn't sure she heard it correctly, perhaps her brain had fed her some make believe fantasy.

Beca let out a deep sigh, her hands resting on Chloe's sides when she finally, slowly opened her eyes. Swallowing hard at the look of pure desperation in Chloe's eyes. "I love you.. I have been in love with you for.. for years.." She finally admitted, feeling strangely lighter but terrified.

Chloe's eyes widened at the admission, looking from one eye to the other to see if this was some kind of sick joke.

No.. Beca would never…

The very notion of Beca hurting her on purpose was ridiculous.

"I'm.. I didn't tell you.. because I didn't..-" Beca's voice cracked with emotion, tears now slid down her features but this time, this time Chloe was there to brush them away. The redhead was still in shock herself, unable to do anything else but brush away Beca's tears. "I don't want to lose you, Chlo.. you mean to much to me and I just hoped that these f-feelings would g-go away." She sniffled wanting to avert her eyes but Chloe didn't let her. "B-but they didn't and I-I-"

Something in Chloe finally snapped, bringing the woman back to her senses while she listened to her friend.

Her person…

The love of her life… who loved her back.

Without any hesitation or doubt, she closed the gap between them. Pressing her lips against Beca's because no words could ever describe how she truly felt about Beca Mitchel.

The kiss was chaste, gentle but full of unspoken words and feelings of the past years. Chloe put everything she had in that kiss, pouring every ouch of love she felt for the brunette into it. Wanting Beca to feel what she felt for so long and the younger woman returned the kiss with equal want.

Chloe's shirt slipped off of her shoulders when she wrapped her arms around Beca's neck, pulling her in just a bit more and flush against her own body.

The older Bella parted her lips slightly, a wordless invitation to Beca to enter if she wanted to and god did Beca want to.

The brunette brushed her tongue over Chloe's lower lip before it slipped into the redhead's welcoming mouth. Beca's arms around Chloe's waist, keeping the taller woman close while their kiss deepened. It was everything Beca had imagined their first kiss to be and so much more.

Chloe was warm, soft, welcoming and smelled like mangos and coconuts. Neither one of them wanted this precious moment to end but their need for oxygen was higher than anticipated so Beca broke the kiss first. Panting like crazy like the woman right in front of her. Their cheeks flushed while they just smiled at one another, their noses gently brushing against one another while they remained in this tender moment.

Beca didn't need Chloe to say the three little words back, she now knew how the redhead felt. She had felt the desperation in the kiss they shared, the need to show the other how they felt. Because it was the same desperation she felt when she blurted out her confession.

Warm hands once again cupped her face, brushing away tears Beca didn't even realize had spilled. "Happy tears..?" Chloe asked and the DJ just nodded, not trusting her voice to speak.

Chloe smiled, placing another small peck on Beca's lips for good measure. "I know I probably don't need to say it.. But god I want to.. I've told myself for so long that you didn't feel the same way." She paused and Beca was about to say something before Chloe shook her head to stop her. "I love you, Beca. I love you. I. Love. You." With every word, she pressed her lips tenderly against Beca's to put more power behind them.

Beca just smiled, unable to wipe that smirk off of her face that would threaten to split her face in two. She'd always dreamed of this moment, hoped for it but never did she think it would actually come true. She looked up at the woman of her dreams, smiling and Chloe smiled back. Finally, finally they could think and dream of a future, one where they'd spent it together.

Because she loved Chloe Beale more than this world could ever offer her.

But most of all: Because Chloe loved her back..
