Beca frowned. "Thank you?"

Richard nodded. "I heard what you did for Chloe in that car, I know she's your girlfriend but you haven't known her that long and you were willing to risk your life for her."

Beca nodded. "I'd do it again if I had to."

Richard smiled and held out his hand. "Thank you."

Beca nodded and shook his hand with a smile. "You really don't have to thank me, but your welcome."

Richard nodded and cleared his throat. "Now that that is out of the way, I'd like to talk about something else.."

"Okay..."

"I'd like to talk about the fact that you blatantly lied to my face about your living conditions."

Beca's eyes widened. "I-I didn't lie per se... I withheld some of the truth. I told you that I live at my grandmothers house and that's the truth."

Richard sighed. "Beca I need you to be honest with me okay?"

Beca sighed and nodded. "I'm sorry.. I just... I don't wanna lose Riley."

"I know Beca... We'll take care of her while you recover I promise."

Beca smiled. "Thank you."

"Riley is a wonderful girl and you've raised her well, she's teaching Caleb great things, so really we should be thanking you."

Beca laughed. "Your welcome then."

Beca had been talking with Richard for fifteen minutes when Chloe came rolling in with the nurse and Laura in tow. She looked at Beca with a bright smile. "Good afternoon Bec!"

Beca smiled. "Hey, how'd everything go?"

Richard and the nurse helped Chloe onto her bed and she looked over at Beca. "Everything is great!"

Beca nodded. "Besides the broken bones.."

Chloe laughed and nodded. "Yeah, besides that... So what're were you two talking about?" She asked pointing at her father.

Beca shrugged. "A little bit of this, a little bit of that."

Richard laughed and nodded. "The usual."

Chloe playfully frowned. "Is this gonna become a thing between you two? Secret meetings and talks about things no one besides the two of you know about?"

Richard and Beca looked at each other with grins, then looked at Chloe and nodded.

Laura sighed. "Just be happy your father actually likes this one."

Chloe laughed. "I actually like this one too, more than anyone I've ever been with."

Beca smiled at Chloe and reached out with her good arm. Chloe smiled and grabbed Beca's hand, Beca gently squeezed it and smiled. "I like you more than anyone I've ever been with too."

Laura smiled and looked at Richard. "We should go and get something to eat."

Richard nodded. "Yeah, we'll bring you girls something back."

They nodded at them nonchalantly as they stared at each other. Laura smiled and pushed Richard out of the room.

Beca smiled at Chloe. "So you're okay?"

Chloe nodded. "I'm okay, how about you? How are you feeling today?"

Beca sighed. "Physically I feel like crap and mentally I feel like an asshole."

"Why?"

"I uh had an interesting talk with Stacie this morning.."

Chloe sighed. "What happened?"

"She spoke with me about her feelings and asked me if I felt the same. She was honest with me and I just feel bad, I told her I didn't feel the same way about her and that I wanted to be with you and she just accepted it."

"She accepted it? No problems at all?"

Beca nodded. "She just told me she loved me and that she'd be there for me because I'm her best friend and nothing can change that."

"Wow.. Do you think she meant it?"

Beca shrugged. "I don't know, only time can tell. She did seem pretty genuine though, but you know I only want you right?"

Chloe smiled and nodded. "Yeah, and I only want you too." She leaned over and gently kissed her. "I've never wanted someone as much as I want you."

Beca smirked but before she say anything the doctor walked into the room. "Good afternoon young ladies, how are you two feeling?"

Chloe smiled. "I'm great, got my ex-rays nothing out of the ordinary."

The doctor nodded looking at her charts. "Yeah, I see that everything seems to be healing as it should and is in place... How about you Beca?"

"I feel okay, just wish we could get started with therapy so I can use my legs again."

He sighed and sat next to her. "That's what I wanted to talk to you about.. We plan on starting today, but I just want to tell you it is a hard process and you may feel like giving up but don't, I know you can do it. I'll be sending in a chair and we'll take you to the room you'll be working in."

Beca took a deep breath and nodded. "Can Chloe come?"

He briefly looked at Chloe then back at Beca. "Are you sure, this first time can be really stressful..."

Beca nodded. "I'm sure."

"Okay then, she can come. I'll be back in a bit." He walked out of the room with a small smile.

As the doctor walked out, Kate walked in. "I'm so glad to see you guys!"

Chloe looked up. "Kate! Look at you! I'm glad you're okay."

Kate nodded. "Yeah I'm fine, just a sprained wrist and some bruising... I'm so sorry about what happened in the car yesterday."

"Hey it's fine, emotions were high but we're all okay.."

"Okay, well I gotta get going, Alice is waiting for me outside... but if either of you need anything let me know and I'll be here." Kate hugged the both of them and walked out of the room with a wave.

"Hey, you alright?" Chloe asked, grabbing one of Beca's hands.

Beca nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine..."

Chloe sighed remembering what Riley said about Beca when she said she was "fine." She grabbed Beca's hand and looked her in the eyes. "I know you said you're fine, but I want you to know that I'll be with you every step of the way and we'll get through this together."

Beca wiped away a tear and nodded. "Thank you Chloe."

Chloe smiled. "You're welcome, I know you can do this."

"Fuck! I can't do this!"

"Come on Beca! You've got this!"

Beca had been getting leg therapy for three weeks now and while she was showing progress, there was still days when she wasn't doing very well.. Today was that day.

"Chloe I can't, I can barely walk an inch!"

Chloe grabbed Beca's hands and looked at her. "Hey never say that you can't because you can! You walked halfway across the room yesterday."

"Let's give Beca a break." Jim her trainer said.

Beca let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you Jim."

He nodded. "Sure thing." He sat across from her and handed her and Chloe some water. "Listen Beca, I told you when we first started that there would be good and bad days. Remember the first day we started and you wanted to give up and you kicked Chloe out of the room?"

Beca slowly nodded.

"There will be days like that, but remember yesterday how you walked across the room...How happy you felt, I could see it all over your face."

Beca nodded. "I felt like myself again... I was able to get somewhere on my own.."

Jim smiled and nodded. "You're very independent, but right now you need people to help you. The more you let us help, the quicker you'll get better and be able to be on your own. Now I know it hurts sometimes and maybe your legs feel numb, but you've gotta fight through that.. Show your pain who's boss."

Beca nodded. "I'm the boss..." She held her arms out and looked at Jim. "Can you help me up?"

He smiled at her and quickly helped her. Chloe watched with a small smile as Beca mentally prepared herself. "You've got this baby!"

Beca nodded confidently and took a step forward. She held out her hand and looked at Chloe. "Can you just... hold my hand for a little support?"

Chloe quickly walked to her and grabbed her hand. "I told you I'm with you every step of the way."

Beca smiled and gave Chloe a quick kiss before focusing on moving her legs forward.

"So Beca how did things go today?" Laura asked with a small smile.

They were now sitting at the table eating dinner at the Beale household. Beca and Riley had been staying with them since the accident so someone could help take care of Beca.

"It was okay.. I've had better days.."

Laura nodded. "You're making progress that's all that matters."

"You know my brother once suffered from a leg injury and walking in water really helped with his recovery, I can take you to a private pool and work with you if you'd like." Richard said.

Beca nodded. "Did he recover okay?"

"Yeah, and quickly too."

Beca smiled. "Yeah, that'd be great!"

Richard nodded. "We can go tomorrow, the kids have a day off from school so I'll have a free day."

"Thank you Richard."

He smiled at her. "No problem Bec, I know how badly you want to walk again."

The doorbell rang and Richard went to go get it. He walked back in with Stacie who gave everyone a small wave. Stacie had been coming to Chloe's house everyday since Beca started staying with them. Chloe rolled her eyes and looked at Stacie with a fake smile. "Stacie.. You're here again.."

Stacie smiled at Chloe and nodded. "Yeah, gotta check on my besties." She walked over to Beca and kissed her on the cheek. "How did everything go today?"

"Everything went okay, not my best but I'm improving..." She looked at Chloe and then back at Stacie and sighed. "Stacie you don't need to come here everyday."

Stacie nodded. "Yeah I know, but I want to."

Beca sighed and looked at Chloe again. She knew Chloe didn't trust Stacie and they both suspected she was up to something. "Stace I'm telling you not to come everyday. If you want to know how I am you can call or text and if you do want to come over call us first you can't just show up. We're having dinner right now.."

Stacie nodded and awkwardly looked at everyone in the room. "Sorry... I will be just leaving now... and uh Bec I'll call you sometime.."

Beca nodded and watched as Richard walked Stacie out. Riley looked at Beca with a frown. "Why are you being mean to Stacie Beca?"

"I'm not being mean to Stacie, I just need some space from her. She tries to stay under me all the time and is constantly trying to do something for me."

"So.. Chloe does it too.."

Beca sighed. "It's different Ry.."

Riley rolled her eyes. "How is it different Beca?"

"Chloe is my girlfriend and she means more to me than Stacie."

"Fine.."

Beca sighed and finished her food, everyone else doing the same.

A few hours later Beca and Chloe were getting ready for bed. Beca had just finished checking on Riley and making sure she was comfortable and asleep and now Chloe was helping her into bed. Beca laughed. "You know the minute my legs are better your parents probably won't let us share a bed anymore."

Chloe laughed and nodded. "I know, it's funny because you don't really need your legs to.. you know."

Beca smirked. "You know? I don't know what that is.. What do you mean Chloe?"

"You know what my parents don't want us to do..."

Beca laughed. "Why can't you just say sex Chloe, two months ago you were fine with it."

Chloe nodded. "I don't know, it's just you're my girlfriend now and it has more meaning.. it's stupid.."

"It's not stupid, I understand." Beca leaned over and kissed Chloe. "Having sex with someone you're in a relationship is different... it's special, and I know our first time will be special because it's what you deserve."

Chloe smiled and kissed Beca slowly getting on top of her. "Honestly, any time with you is special."

Beca gripped Chloe's hips and kissed Chloe again. "Yeah, but I want to be able to give you the full effect and I can't do that without my legs."

Chloe nodded and laid her head on Beca's chest. "Thank you for earlier with Stacie.."

Beca kissed Chloe's head and nodded. "I know it was bothering you, and honestly it was bothering me too.. Enough about that though, let's get some rest it was a long day."

Chloe nodded and cuddled into Beca before slowly dozing off.

Six Weeks Later

Chloe pushed Beca into the house with a smile. "Hey we're back!"

Everyone ran into the living room anxiously, frowning when they saw Beca was still in her chair. "I guess it didn't go too well.."

Beca shrugged and smiled at everyone. She slowly stood up and walked over to Riley wrapping her in a hug. "I'm fine sis."

Riley grinned and held Beca tighter. "I was so worried you were gonna come back and say you couldn't walk."

Beca shook her head and looked at everyone. "Jim really pushed me today and he told me I was pretty much good to go and didn't need therapy any more." She looked at Richard and smiled. "He also told me working in the pool helped with my recovery so thank you."

He nodded. "It was my pleasure."

"I'm so happy right now.. I can officially walk again!"

It had been a rough the past six weeks, Beca made a goal to when she wanted to be able to walk and while she was off by a week she was able to do it. Christmas was now literally two weeks away and she was happy she'd be able to walk.

"So I know I just got the good word on my legs and I don't want it to seem like I don't want to be here but I'd like to have a Christmas party at my house. I'll cook dinner and set everything up, you guys gave Riley and I an amazing Thanksgiving and you also have taken time out of your lives to take care of us."

Laura smiled. "You don't have to do that honey, you and Riley have become somewhat of a family to us."

Beca nodded. "I want to Christmas day, we can all come together at my house and have a good time. You can invite your family members if you want, I have more than enough space in my house."

Chloe nodded. "She really does, it's huge." Chloe looked at her parents. "I think we should do it."

Richard laughed. "Of course you do." He looked at Laura with a smile. "I'm cool with it if you are, we can call everyone and tell them about the change and give them Beca's address."

Beca smiled. "Awesome! I'm gonna actually head home today."

Laura frowned. "Already? You might still need some help.."

"You guys have helped more than enough, you all can get back to your normal lives now, plus Chloe is coming along and if you allow it she'll stay a couple nights.."

Richard looked at them skeptically. "Why can't you all just stay here a little longer?"

"Beca's house is bigger dad and Riley probably wants to sleep in her own bed.." Chloe said looking over at Riley.

Riley shrugged. "I do kind of miss my house."

Richard looked at Laura and then nodded. "Fine, but I do expect you to behave yourself."

Chloe smiled. "Of course daddy."

He looked at Beca with a raised eyebrow.

Beca quickly nodded her head. "I promise I won't do anything wrong."

Richard nodded. "Okay then.."

Chloe grinned and hugged her parents. "I'm gonna go pack!"

Laura looked at Beca with a small smile. "How long does she plan on staying?"

Beca shrugged. "I don't know.. I don't mind though, I like being around her."

Chloe walked back into the room fifteen minutes later with a couple bags and a smile. "I know it seems like a lot but it's really not, and I'll be stopping by everyday after school." She hugged her parents and smiled. "Thanks for letting me go."

Richard nodded. "How long do you plan on staying with Beca?" He asked eyeing her bags.

"Umm the rest of the month..."

Beca's eyes widened. "The rest of the month?"

"Yeah, I mean it's two weeks until Christmas so I figured I'd be staying with you these next two weeks and then winter break, I thought we could do something together.."

"Oh... yeah that's fine with me." She said looking at Chloe's parents.

"I don't know Chloe.." Richard said looking at Laura to back him up.

"Dad please.."

"Richard, she's getting older, she's seventeen and we know where Beca lives. I think she'll be fine."

He sighed and nodded. "Fine, but I expect a phone call everyday and night."

Chloe nodded. "Of course." She looked at Beca. "You ready to go?"

Beca nodded. "Yeah, I'm just gonna grab my bag."

"Chloe I mean it when I say behave."

Chloe rolled her eyes. "Dad I'm not a little girl anymore.. I'm not gonna do anything that can get me in trouble."

"When I say behave I mean don't have sex."

Chloe's eyes widened. "Dad!"

"I mean it Chloe."

"Dad Beca and I aren't having sex, but when we do decide to do it, you have no say over it."

Richard's eyes widened. "I can tell you that you can't stay with her at her house!"

Laura gently grabbed Richard's arm. "Sweetie calm down... Chloe go see if Beca needs help with anything."

Chloe nodded and went to her room to check on Beca.

"Richard I get where you are coming from, but you can't stop Chloe from doing that.. It's not like she can get pregnant anyway."

Richard shook his head. "I'm not worried about that, it's just the thought of someone being intimate with my little girl, someone touching her... I can't."

"It's Beca we're talking about, Beca is a great girl and she'd never do anything to make Chlo uncomfortable. I think she's in good hands, besides we don't know that they'll do anything."

"They've been together for two months, I think they're pretty anxious to do something."

Laura sighed. "Richard..."

Richard nodded. "You're right.. I freaked it's just my baby girl is growing up."

"Yeah she is.."

Chloe threw her bags in the trunk of her parents car and smiled at them. "We'll probably be back later today with the car, Beca said she's buying a new one today."

Laura nodded. "Okay, maybe you guys can stay for dinner when you come back..."

Chloe laughed. "Maybe mom, we'll see."

"Okay dear, I'll see you girls later."

Chloe drove off and smiled at Beca. "So where to? Do you wanna go pick out a car first?"

Beca shook her head. "Nah, I wanna head home, it's been a while." She turned and looked at her sister. "You okay Ry?"

Riley nodded. "Yeah, I did kind of miss my bed and our house."

Beca smiled. "I'm proud of you for being so strong while I was hurt, your support helped me get through it all."

"Of course Bec, like you said we've gotta stick together and be there for each other."

They pulled up to the house a half an hour later and entered the house. The moment the door opened, two small brunettes let out a sigh of contentment. "It feels good to be home." Beca said with a smile. They walked further into the house and Riley took off going up the stairs to her room, Beca laughed and grabbed Chloe's hand taking her to the back of the house. "Oh how I've missed this room."

Chloe smiled as she watched Beca walk around the room hugging her equipment. "What is all of this stuff?"

Beca smiled at Chloe as she held up a pair of her headphones. "This stuff is where all my musical magic happens, this is all my Deejaying equipment, my instruments.. everything!"

Chloe looked with wide eyes at all the instruments, guitar, drums, piano, she even saw a flute. "You play all of this?"

Beca nodded. "Yeah, I'm trying to teach Riley some stuff too... I've been working on a song about you."

Chloe smiled. "Really? Can I hear it?"

Beca shook her head. "I want you to hear it once it's complete."

"Please Bec.." Chloe pouted.

Beca smiled. "I'll let you hear thirty seconds of it."

Chloe nodded. "Make sure it's not just the intro."

Beca smirked. "You know me too well." She skipped through some of it and pressed play.

Chloe smiled as she listened to the soft melody and the lyrics Beca was singing. When Beca stopped it she walked over to her and kissed her. "That was amazing babe! You didn't tell me how good of a singer you were by the way."

Beca shrugged. "It never came up, but did you really like what you heard so far?"

Chloe nodded. "I loved it Beca honestly, I wish you would let me hear the whole thing."

Beca smiled. "Soon.. Let's go unpack this stuff, you can use some of my closet space and a few drawers."

Chloe smirked at her. "What makes you think I wanna share a room with you?"

"I uh just figured y-"

Chloe laughed and kissed Beca. "I'm just playing babe, let's go so we can get you your car."

They pulled into the car lot an hour later and began looking around. "Excuse me how can I help you?"

Beca turned and looked at the guy who was looking at her funny. "Hi I'm here to buy a car."

"Um I don't know if we have the right car for you.."

Beca frowned. "Why the hell not? I'm here to replace my old one."

He nodded at her. "And what was your old car, a toyota?"

Chloe looked the man up and down and walked up to him. "No she had a 2015 Dodge Challenger."

His eyes widened. "W-What?"

Beca nodded and showed him a picture.

"Did you steal it?"

Beca shook her head. "No you asshole I bought it! Just like I'm trying to do now! What the fuck is wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry, I just looked at you and assum-"

"Yeah you assumed you were better than me and that I didn't have any money, now go and find me another dodge challenger just like my last one and when you come back have that fucking attitude in check." When he walked away she looked back at Riley. "Sorry for cursing in front of you."

"It's fine, I know you have a bad mouth."

Chloe laughed and grabbed Beca's hand before giving her a quick kiss. "You handled that better than I thought you would."

Beca smirked. "Thank you."

The guy came back with a small smile and some car keys. "I just want to apologize again, I'm really sorry.. I've got your car over here if you want to look at it."

Beca nodded and they all followed him to the car, she looked at him with a smile. "Thank you, it's perfect."

"What happened to your other car if you don't mind me asking?"

"I got into a pretty bad car accident almost two months ago."

He nodded. "And you're just replacing it?"

"I'm just getting my leg functioning back."

His eyes widened. "Wow, I'm glad everything turned out okay."

"Yeah, me too." He handed her the keys and she signed the papers she needed to buy the car and soon they were on their way. Beca looked at the time and smiled at Chloe. "I think we can stop by your house and eat some dinner."

Chloe nodded. "One more time."

Riley cheered as they drove in the direction of the Beale household.

Beca fell onto her bed with a sigh, they had gotten back from Chloe's house an hour ago and she had just finished giving Riley her medicine and getting her ready for bed. Chloe curled up next to her and gave her a kiss. "You okay?"

Beca yawned and nodded. "Yeah, today was just a long day and I may have used my legs a little too much today."

Chloe looked up at Beca, concerned. "Are you hurting baby?"

Beca shook her head. "Nothing to be concerned about, it's just a little tingle."

"You sure?"

Beca nodded. "Yeah, my legs just feel a little restless.. I'm fine, just tired."

"Okay, let's go to sleep then."

"Thanks Chloe.."

"For what?"

Beca looked at Chloe with a smile. "You've been there for me, you've helped me, and you're family has been great."

Chloe kissed Beca and cuddled into her, Beca instantly wrapping an arm around her. "You don't have to thank me for that."

Beca kissed Chloe's neck and smiled, slowly closing her eyes. "I love you Chloe." She said softly.

Chloe's eyes widened in the dark.
