They had one more class until lunch and Chloe was anxiously looking at the clock, she really wanted to see Beca and Stacie had been staring daggers at her the whole day. Chloe sighed and pulled out her phone.
Chlo [10:12 AM] Come to the English honors class before lunch so we can walk together.
Beca [10:14AM] ok... But why?
Chlo [10:16 AM] I figured you wanted to see me.. Lol jk idk I wanna walk with you, and Stacie has been killing me a million times in her head, I can see it in her eyes.
Beca [10:17 AM] Why? I thought you guys were 'besties'
Chlo [10:18 AM] I'll explain later, see you at eleven?
Beca [10:19 AM] sure thing see you soon.
It was finally eleven and class was over, Chloe nearly hopped out of her seat and made her way to the door before she felt someone tug on her arm. She sighed seeing it was Stacie.
"What do you want Stacie?"
"I come in peace.. I promise, I just wanted to apologize, I really like having you as a friend and I shouldn't let a girl who isn't interested in me affect our friendship."
Chloe was shocked but Stacie looked sincere enough. "Okay.. she won't affect us then."
Stacie nodded. "So you can totally go for it."
Chloe nodded and smiled, her smile went down when she saw Beca walking and laughing with another girl. "Who is that Stace?"
Stacie looked over and smiled. "Oh that's Jess, she's another badass here at our school, she's in and out of school all the time, her and Beca use to skip all the time, but Beca started getting more serious about school for some reason."
"Oh.."
Beca and Jess walked to the two with grins on their faces. "Hey Chlo."
"Hey Beca." Chloe said with a small smile.
"Jess this is Chloe Beale, Chloe this is Jessica Scott aka Jess."
Chloe watched as Jessica looked her up and down. "It's uh nice to meet you Chloe."
"Nice to meet you too Jessica."
Jess waved her hand dismissively. "Any friend of Beca's is a friend of mine.. call me Jess."
"Okay.. nice to meet you Jess."
"Much better." She then looked at Stacie with a grin. "Hello there Stacie, I've missed you!"
Stacie hugged Jess tightly. "Missed you too, I'm so glad you're here."
"Me too... I think I'll stick around for awhile."
Beca smiled. "You should."
Jessica pecked Beca on the cheek. "I will."
Chloe frowned, who was this girl?
They were all now sitting at the lunch table laughing, well they were laughing Chloe was seething with jealousy, Jessica clearly had a thing for Beca, and Beca clearly didn't mind. She didn't even get the chance to talk with Beca privately Aubrey and Stacie excused themselves as they went to the bathroom, leaving Chloe with them.
As Aubrey and Stacie walked into the bathroom, Aubrey grabbed Stacie's arm. "So Jess is back.."
Stacie nodded with a smile. "Yeah she is.."
"Does this have anything to do with your 'revenge'?"
"I don't know what you mean Bree."
"Oh cut the bullshit Stacie, you know Jess and Beca have a lot of history, you asked her to come flirt with Beca, so Chloe can't have her."
Stacie shrugged as she put on more makeup. "Maybe I did, maybe I didn't."
Aubrey sighed and walked away.
Lunch was over and Chloe stood by waiting for Beca so they could walk to class together. She smiled when she saw Beca walking towards her. "Hey.. sorry about that, I didn't know Jess was going to be in school today, I haven't seen her in a month."
Chloe nodded her head. "It's fine."
"So what did you wan-"
"BECA!"
They both turned and saw Jessica running towards them.
"You forgot your phone."
Beca let out a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness you found it before I noticed it was missing, I would've died!"
"I know Bec." Jess said with a laugh. "Have good rest of the day you two. I'll see you after school Bec?"
Beca nodded. "Yeah sure.."
Jess smiled. "Good." She leaned forward and gently kissed Beca on the lips. Chloe turned away a bit, and Beca's eyes widened.
"Uh yeah... see you later.."
She grabbed Chloe's hand and started walking to their class.
"So Jessica's your girlfriend?"
Beca laughed. "No.."
"But she kissed you.. and you two seem to have a lot of chemistry.."
"Yeah... we have this thing, we have history together and we've been through some things, but I wouldn't say we'd make it in the long haul."
Chloe nodded her head as they sat in their seats. "So would you date her?"
Beca shrugged her shoulders. "It wouldn't really be a big deal.. we've dated before, I wouldn't mind dating her again, but like I said, I don't see myself ever being in love with her."
Chloe tried to hide the disappointment in her face. "Do you think you could love her?"
Beca nodded. "I do love her. She means a lot to me."
"Oh."
"Yup.. enough about that though, I believe there was something you wanted to talk to me about, something regarding Stacie as well, you two looked fine to me by the way."
"Uh yeah, we got over it, and uh it was nothing.. nothing at all."
The day went on and Chloe was miserable, of course the girl Beca loved showed up today. She was now seated in the back of Beca's car and was listening to them talk. She let out a sigh of relief when Beca pulled up to her house.
"Thanks for the ride Becs."
Chloe hopped out the car and quickly made her way to her house.
"Chloe wait!"
She turned and was shocked Beca had followed her.
"Yeah?"
"You just walked off.."
"I thought you wanted to get out of here with your friend."
"Doesn't mean I don't want to hang out with you or walk you to your door.. she can wait."
Chloe smiled and nodded her head. "Soo..."
"I uh I feel like we didn't really get much time to talk today.. can I come by later?"
"Y-yeah.. sure... when you come text me, I'll let you in through the back."
"Why not the front door?"
"My grandma is in town.. she saw you kiss me on the cheek the other day and she isn't to fond of the thought of a girl being with me.."
"But we're not.."
"Yeah but she wouldn't believe it, I just want to save us the trouble."
Beca nodded. "Okay, I'll text you then."
Beca walked with Chloe to her door and smiled. "So I'll see you later?"
"Yeah.."
Beca nodded and kissed Chloe on the cheek before giving her hand a light squeeze. "See ya."
Chloe waved and watched Beca drive off, she sighed and had a light smile on her face as she walked through the door. She was quickly approached by her aunt who had a grin on her face.
"I saw you two."
"Saw what?"
"The chemistry.. the want..."
"Nothing is happening."
Alice frowned. "What do you mean nothing is happening Chloe? I thought you were telling her today."
"I was! I was so ready to tell her... but then Jessica Scott came and took all of our time.."
"Well that sucks.. you should have just pulled Beca to the side and told her."
Chloe sighed. "I can't aunt Alice! I need to have a conversation with her I can't just say it!"
"Okay.. Okay.. So now what?"
"When you saw us standing there she was telling me she wanted to come by later on. I'm gonna let her in through the back."
"I'll make sure no one sees."
"Thank you."
Chloe hugged Alice and went to her room to straighten it up a bit before Beca came. She got a text two hours later and quickly ran down the steps and let Beca in. "You came at the most inconvenient time you know?"
Beca frowned. "I'm sorry... I could come back or we could talk tomorrow.."
"No.. it's fine, I just know my mom will be calling me for din-"
"CHLOE!"
Beca laughed. "I can wait here for you.."
"No, I'll be right back just give me a sec."
Beca nodded her head as Chloe ran out of her room.
"Mom... I uh, I'm doing a really important project that is due tomorrow. Do you mind if I take my plate to my room.. or I can just eat later.."
Laura nodded. "It's fine honey, take your food and get your work done."
Chloe smiled and said hello to everyone before grabbing her plate and winking at Alice before rushing back to her room. She walked in and saw Beca looking at a picture she had on her nightstand.
"Hey."
Beca put the picture down and looked at Chloe who was closing the door. "Hey."
Chloe sat on her bed and patted the space next to her. Beca smiled and slid on the bed.
"So earlier you told me that you really didn't have much to say.. I know that's not the truth, I want you to tell me what you were going to tell me."
"I-I"
"Come on Chloe..."
"I like you.. a lot.. I was going to say that I wanted to give us a chance and see where things go.."
Beca smiled and grabbed Chloe's hands. "Why didn't you say that?"
"Jessica came.. she's so beautiful and you guys have your whole history, whatever that is and she kissed you... I just couldn't."
"And then I told you I loved her..."
Chloe nodded.
"Chloe I've known Jess since I was three years old, our parents weren't good parents and we use to band together when bad things happened."
Chloe watched as Beca took a deep breath and wiped a tear from her eye.
"When I was eleven, Jess and I were in the car with my mom... she was drunk and she dozed off behind the wheel. We tried to control it, we tried to wake her, but the car kept going, it swerved and the next thing I know the car is in water and we're sinking. That wakes my mom up and she's trying to unbuckle Jess and mine's seat belt. We get out of our seat belts and try to get out of the car. Some how my mom got the door open for us and we got out of the car, the pressure of the water must have done something because when we turned back my mom was trapped again, Jess swam to the car and tried getting the door open, I helped but we couldn't, we felt arms around us and the next thing I remember is waking up in a hospital. We passed out but firefighters came and rescued us. My mom didn't make it..."
Chloe scooted closer to Beca and hugged her. "Thank you for sharing that story with me Beca. I'm glad you trusted me enough."
"You told me I'd open up to you.. I guess you were right."
"Is that why you learned how to drive when you were twelve?"
Beca nodded. "I could have possibly saved her had I known what I was doing... all I remember was feeling panic all over me, and seeing a look of determination on Jess's face. I knew then that no matter what, she'd be in my life forever, she's my soulmate, the kind that you love but aren't meant to be with you know?"
Chloe nodded her head. "I get it."
Jess means a lot to me, but if I had to choose between dating you and going back to her just because.. I'd pick you."
Chloe smiled. "Thanks.. that actually makes me feel much better."
Beca laughed. "I'm glad." She slowly leaned in and kissed Chloe slowly. She wrapped her arms around her and slowly got on top of Chloe kissing her, her hand slowly moving up Chloe's shirt. Chloe lightly moaned when she felt Beca gently squeeze her breast.
"Chloe do you wan- OH MY GOD!"
Beca jumped off of Chloe and saw someone looking at them with wide eyes.
"M-mom.."
"Chloe Diane Beale you told me you were working on an important project." Before Chloe could say anything Laura spoke again. "I want both of you out of this room and in the living right now!" She walked out of the room leaving a wide eyed Beca and Chloe.
"Dude is your mom going to kill me?"
"I-I don't know..."
They slowly walked into the living room seeing Laura, Richard and her grandmother. Chloe sighed, Beca looked at the older woman and immediately knew she was in for it. It was quiet for a few seconds before Beca cleared her throat. "Um hello.."
Laura smirked. "Hello... who are you?"
"Uh I'm Rebeca Mitchell a friend of Chloe's."
"Just a friend?"
Beca looked around the room at everyone, she looked at Chloe's grandmother and nodded her head. "Yup."
"So what exactly did I walk in on a few minutes ago?"
"Um we were practicing.. for a play.. yeah... well not really a play but I make YouTube videos and I'm making a new video and I asked Chloe to be in it... she's my love interest."
Chloe's grandmother frowned. "I'd love to see some of your videos then."
Beca smirked. "Go for it.. I could always use more views, BMitch is my name on there."
Chloe looked at Beca with wide eyes. "Yeah.. but Beca's gonna head home now, so let's go get your bags."
She grabbed Beca's hand before anyone could speak and pulled her in her room. "Seriously Beca! You just lied to my family..."
"Not really.. we are friends.. I do have a YouTube page and I'd like for you to play my love interest in one I'm thinking about making if you're up for it."
"Really?"
Beca nodded. "Yeah, but let's talk about it tomorrow." Beca quickly pulled Chloe close to her and kissed her, slightly biting on her lip as she pulled away. "I'll text you."
Chloe's eyes were glazed over as she nodded. "Yeah."
Beca laughed. "Bye."
"Bye."
Chloe walked Beca to the door and waved as she left. She walked back in the house and were met by a series of different faces. Her grandmother was the first to talk.
"I hope you know you didn't fool anyone."
"What do you mean?"
"YouTube my ass Chloe, your mother saw you two making out."
"We were making out grandma okay we were, but Beca really does make videos and asked me to be in it as her love interest."
"Why do you have to play the love interest?"
"That's the only role left. Look grandma whether you like it or not I'll be kissing Beca, there's nothing you can do about it." Chloe took one glance at her parents and walked to her room.
Chloe was laying in her bed just thinking when her phone buzzed.
Beca [10:12 PM] Hey are you alive?
Chlo [10:13 PM] Yeah I'm good.
Beca [10:14 PM] That's good.. wyd?
Chlo [10:16 PM] Just laying here thinking, hbu?
Beca [10:17 PM] What you thinking about? and nm just mixing.
Chlo [10:20 PM] Just thinking about everything that happened today...
Beca [10:21 PM] I hope you're thinking good things about the stuff that happened between us..
Chlo [10:23 PM] I'm thinking a lot about what happened between us today, I've come to the conclusion that we can't be together.. right now anyway.
Beca [10:30 PM] Okay.. We're still good and I'd still like for you to be in my video.
Chlo [10:31 PM] You don't want to know why?
Beca [10:33 PM] Nah. I know I'm not that great of a person and obviously dating me would cause a huge rift in your family.. I understand.
Chlo [10:34 PM] BECA! No that's not it at all. I just can't...
Beca [10:35 PM] It's fine, I understand.. I wanna finish up this mix, but I'll see you tomorrow. Goodnight Chloe
Chlo [10:36 PM] Goodnight Beca.
Chloe sighed as she put her phone down. "Why did I do that?"
Chloe walked into school the next day and was greeted by Aubrey and Stacie.
"Hey, we text you last night, you didn't reply." Aubrey said after hugging Chloe.
"Sorry I was hanging out with Beca, she came over and we were.. talking."
"Oh.." Aubrey grabbed both Stacie and Chloe and started walking to class before Stacie could comment. While they were walking they ran into Beca and Jess.
"Beca come on, be my date tonight.."
Chloe watched as Beca smirked and pretended to think about it.
"I guess I could go."
Chloe felt her stomach drop. Stacie walked in their direction and hugged Jess.
"Hey Jess, why do you need a date?"
"My dad is trying to come back in my life and right some wrongs.. I've gotta go to this dinner, so I asked Mitchell here to be my date."
Stacie laughed. "I'm jealous, I can never get Beca to go out with me."
Jess grinned. "That's because her heart is reserved for me only."
Beca smiled, but it instantly went down when she looked up and noticed Chloe standing there. "Chloe.. hey."
"Hello Beca.."
"I should probably head to class.. I'll see you guys at lunch." Beca walked off and Jess followed quickly hooking their arms together.
Aubrey watched Stacie as she grinned at Jess and looked over at Chloe. She knew what Stacie was doing and she didn't like it, she was going to help Beca and Chloe get together.
"Hey I want us to have a small get together on Friday, just us three, Jess, Beca, Fat Amy, CR, and Ashley."
Stacie sighed. "Those are just our girl friends.. no guys?"
"Fine.. we can also invite, Jesse and Benji.."
"Booo.. Add Luke to the equation and you've got a deal."
"Alright.. Luke and that's all.."
"If anybody else shows up I'm shutting it down, and you know I will."
Stacie and Chloe nodded their heads and they walked to class.
Chloe walked into the lunchroom and felt someone tug on her arm. She smiled when she saw it was Beca. "Hey.."
"Hey."
"Why are we not walking to the table?"
"Because everyone is over there and I want us to talk without interruption. We're going to the computer room, Mrs. D is cool, she'll let us chill in there."
Chloe nodded as she followed Beca.
"Hey Mrs. D, We're just gonna sit back here okay."
The teacher nodded and they made their way to the back of the room.
"I'm sorry about last night Beca, I shouldn't have said all that through text."
"It's fine Chloe, I'm actually glad you did that because I would have walked up to you today and told you how beautiful you were and kissed you and then you would have ended whatever it is we were about to start... We don't have to talk about that anymore, you rejected me three times... I get it you don't want me.. end of story, what I really want to talk about is my YouTube channel, I'm starting a new web series and like I said I want you in it with me, if you don't mind kissing me."
"I'd love to.. I don't mind kissing you.. you're quite good at it."
Beca smirked. "Thanks.. I'll text you details later.."
"Beca? It's not that I don't want you, it's just-"
Beca grabbed Chloe's hands. "Hey, enough.. I said drop it, I'm over it we're good."
Chloe nodded and followed Beca as they walked back to the lunch room.
School was now over and Chloe was in Beca's car putting on her seat belt. Before they could drive off, Aubrey and Stacie approached the car. Stacie looked at the two and slightly rolled her eyes.
"Where were you two during lunch."
"Not that it's any of your business, but we were in a classroom discussing a film we're making... I could actually use more people, would you two like to be in it?"
"Hell yes! I've always wanted to be an actress." Stacie said with a grin.
Aubrey nodded. "Sure.. hey are you coming to my house Friday? It'll only be a few of us.."
Beca nodded. "I'll try to make it."
"Oh no she's coming."
They all looked over and saw Jess smiling at them. "I'll make sure of it."
Beca laughed. "Yeah.. I'm leaving now.."
"No ride for me?"
Beca shrugged. "I thought you were gonna catch a ride with the witches."
Aubrey frowned. "Hey!"
"Sorry Aubrey.. one of the witches." She says gesturing to Stacie.
"Beca!"
Beca laughed. "Sorry Stacie, I'm not taking it back for you."
Jess stood in front of Stacie before she could reply. "I'll ride with them, see you later Bec."
Beca raised her hand in a mock salute and drove off. It was a comfortable silence in the car for awhile.
"So what's the story with you, Aubrey and Stacie?"
Beca looked at Chloe then back at the road. "What do you mean?"
"It seems like you hate them, but Jess is your best friend, and she is friends with them.."
Beca shrugged. "It's mainly Stacie I don't like, Aubrey is just with her all the time so I just try to avoid both of them.. We were all friends before, but then Stacie and I slept together and she started acting different, she became like obsessed, then she started sleeping around with everyone.. One day I just got tired of her and stopped talking her, things got worse and stuff happened, I don't really want to get into all of it."
Chloe nodded her head in understanding. "But you're gonna go to Aubrey's party..."
"Like I said Aubrey's not really the problem and she's inviting people I guess you call my friends."
Chloe smiled at Beca. "I'm your friend."
Beca pulled up to Chloe's house and smiled. "Yeah you are, besides Jess you're like my only real friend."
Chloe nodded. "Yeah.. Aubrey and Stacie are cool, but I think you're like a real friend."
Beca smiled at Chloe and leaned over to kiss her on the cheek. "Good to know I'm doing something right."
Chloe was about to say something but Beca's phone started ringing, she looked at and sighed. "I gotta go, but I'll talk to you later."
Chloe nodded and got out the car, once Chloe made it her door she saw Beca quickly pull out of the driveway and drive off rather quickly.
"I wonder who that was." Chloe said to herself.
Chloe was laying on her bed listening to music and doing her homework when her grandma walked in and sat on her bed.
"Chloe I want to talk to you."
She gave her grandma a small smile and turned the music off. "What's up grandma?"
"I don't want you hanging out with that girl anymore.."
Chloe rolled her eyes. "Seriously gram.."
"Yes seriously.. I looked at her YouTube, she's a bad influence!"
Before Chloe could say anything Laura walked in. "Mom I told you not to say anything.. Can you please leave me and my daughter alone."
She nodded and left the room muttering things to herself. Chloe looked at her mom and sighed. "Mom you can't make me stay away from Beca.."
"I wasn't going to say that.. but I could if I wanted.. do you know about Beca's living arrangements?"
Chloe shrugged. "Not really.. I know both her parents are dead, but I never asked who she lived with..."
"Well I don't think her father is really dead because she has trash talked him a lot on her channel, she also always has a little girl with her, not really sure who she is, we didn't spend all day watching her videos."
Chloe nodded. "I'll uh.. I'll ask her about it okay?"
Laura nodded. "Yeah check that out, and be careful.." Before Laura walked out the room she looked at Chloe. "Oh and dress up a bit, your grandma leaves in the morning so we're going out to eat dinner."
"Sure thing mom."
Chloe rolled her eyes, they had been at the restaurant for 15 minutes now and her mom and grandma were arguing with one of the staff about getting a table.
"There's three tables over there available, why can't we use one of those?"
"Our tables are in use." The lady said and walked back to the desk.
Before Laura could say anything a familiar voice talked to the lady. "They can come sit with us."
A taller man looked at us and frowned. "I only got a table for three."
Beca looked at all of them and smiled as she pulled out her wallet. "I got it."
The lady behind the desk smiled at Beca as she took the money and led them all to the table. "A waiter will be with you momentarily."
Laura smiled at Beca. "Thank you for that, you didn't have to."
Beca smiled back. "It's no problem."
"Chloe Diane Beale you set this up!"
Chloe looked at her grandmother with confusion. "Set what up grandma?"
"Having dinner with this.. this girl."
"Grandma!"
"Excuse me, you shouldn't be talking about her when she gave you a table to sit so you could eat!" Jess said, face full of anger.
"I can talk to anyone how ever I please!"
Beca cleared her throat. "Honestly we had no idea about this.. I'm here with Jess and her father tonight. I really didn't know Chloe was going to be here."
Jessica's dad nodded. "Honestly, I'm trying to reconnect with my daughter.."
Chloe's grandma squinted her eyes. "Then why is she here?"
Jess stood up and leaned over the table. "Because she's my date!"
"Oh really.. well did you know she's going around kissing my granddaughter?"
Jess looked shocked at first but shook it off. "Beca can kiss whoever she wants, we're not dating.. she just is here to support me."
Chloe's grandmother looked at her. "Chloe I don't want you to be around these dykes.. they're corrupting you. You especially don't need to be around that worthless, parentless-"
"Grandma-"
Beca grabbed Chloe's hand under the table and gently squeezed it. She gave her a small smile. "Excuse me for a sec." Beca got out her seat and walked to the bathroom.
"I can't believe you grandma." Chloe got up and quickly followed Beca.
When she entered the bathroom she saw Beca just standing there. "You okay?"
Beca looked over at her and nodded. "Yeah I'm cool. She's not the first person to verbally abuse me."
Chloe walked closer to Beca and grabbed her hand. "But she definitely shouldn't have said that to you.."
Beca smiled at Chloe. "I'm fine, I just had to get out of there.. we were causing to much of a scene. You shouldn't have left Jess with her, she's gonna destroy her."
Chloe stood closer to Beca. "Let her." She slowly started to lean in.
"What are you doing?"
Chloe wrapped her arms around Beca's neck. "Kissing you.."
She connected their lips and kissed Beca slowly, after a few seconds Beca pulled back a little. "You're only doing this to defy your grandma." Beca whispered near Chloe's lips. Chloe's lips hovered over Beca's. "Do you want to stop?" Beca smirked and shook her head before pulling Chloe close to her.
A few minutes later the door opened and someone cleared their throat.
"You scared me Jess." Beca said as she held her hand to her chest.
Jess looked at Beca and Chloe. "So that old lady was telling the truth.. are you two dating?"
Beca looked at Chloe then back at Jess and shook her head. "She's not interested... We're just friends... who kiss... sometimes."
"So you're friends with benefits.."
"Eh. I wouldn't say that.. I don't really get any of the 'benefits' maybe a kiss here or there.."
"We could be friends with benefits.."
They both looked at Chloe with wide eyes. Jess was the first to speak. "You don't look like the FWB type.."
"Well you don't look like the type to skip school all the time but you do.."
Jess nodded her head with a smirk and left the room. Chloe smiled at Beca and tugged her towards her. "So what do you think?"
Beca was still looked at Chloe with wide eyes. "I- uh I don't know.."
"Come on Beca.. You're badass, you like doing things like this..."
She slowly kissed Beca and trailed her hand up Beca's shirt. She smiled when Beca lifted her and sat her on the sink. She started kissing on Chloe's neck and lifted Chloe's shirt off. She stepped away from Chloe and ran to the door locking it before coming back to Chloe and kissing her again. She started unhooking Chloe's bra and groping her boobs. "Fuck! Beca maybe we should stop.."
Beca looked up at Chloe in confusion. "You know friends with benefits usually go all the way." Beca panted out.
"I-I just.."
Beca nodded and clipped Chloe's bra back together and handed her shirt back. "It's fine.. you don't want to.."
"I do! I just.."
"Not here.. got it.. We should probably head back anyway." Beca walked to the door and held it open for Chloe. Chloe sighed and followed her that's not what she wanted to say, but she couldn't say what she really wanted. What the hell is wrong with me? Chloe thought to herself.
